Are You Leading From Your Past? How to Decide From Your Future Self

Are you making leadership decisions from your past? Learn how to spot the patterns, own them, and start deciding from your future self. Unprocessed experiences don't stay behind you. They show up in your choices, your relationships, and the results your team lives with. In this episode, Dr. Denise Simpson unpacks why so many leaders can't move past their past, why pushing through without processing feels like strength, and how mining the gold from hard seasons turns them into wisdom.

You'll hear a client's story about losing her footing, the two questions that reveal whether you're the common denominator, and how to step into your future self and ask, "What will they not stand for anymore?"
