You're Not Avoiding the Task (opens the original)
Read excerpt
We call it procrastination. Then we try to fix it with discipline, calendars, lists, timers, and another promise that this time I’m just going to start. But what if we’re trying to solve the wrong problem? In this episode of The Talent Brief , I’m exploring what might be happening underneath procrastination, and one question that changed the conversation for me: What happens inside me right before I decide not to start? Maybe resistance isn’t something we need to immediately fix. Maybe it’s info
Busy Isn't a Feeling (opens the original)
Read excerpt
“How are you?” Busy. Swamped. Trying to catch up. We say these things without thinking twice. But they describe what we’re doing, not necessarily how we’re feeling. In this episode of The Talent Brief, I explore what might be underneath our automatic answers, why naming what we actually feel can be harder than it sounds, and what we might notice when we stop hiding behind “busy.” Because sometimes the words we reach for first aren’t feelings.

You've Outgrown the Script (opens the original)
Read excerpt
What happens when something that once fit your life doesn't anymore? A career. A relationship. A friendship. A role you've always played. Even a version of yourself.

I just couldn’t seem to find the gear. And then I noticed something else. Before I’d even understood what I was feeling, I was already trying to fix it. So I turned on the microphone before I had an answer. No lesson. No breakthrough. No five-step solution. Just a question I’m still sitting with: What if we got curious about what we’re
Loyalty or Fear (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Sometimes we rename fear as loyalty because loyalty sounds better. But there's a difference between staying because something still matters to us and staying because we're afraid of what happens if we leave. In this episode of The Talent Brief, we're looking at the uncomfortable space between loyalty, fear, identity, and choice. Because the question isn't always whether you should stay or leave. Sometimes the better question is: What's actually making the decision?
