026 - Steve Cuss - ”Managing Leadership Anxiety”

Does anxiety get in the way of your leadership?  I think most of us would answer yes, in some shape or form. The very nature of leadership is fertile ground for anxiety to spring up in our lives.  In this episode, Alan has a conversation with pastor and author, Steve Cuss. Through Steve's early experience as a hospital chaplain and years of pastoral ministry, anxiety has been a consistent presence within leadership.  Steve talks about practical ways of acknowledging our anxiety, through physical cues in our bodies. He gives insight into some of our deeper sources of anxiety in leadership, like identity and performance. And ultimately Steve offers hope through practical ways of addressing the very real anxiety that exists in our lives.  We encourage you to listen to this one with your friends, team or spouse as a way to unpack and name this reality in your life. Find Steve's book "Managing Leadership Anxiety" below. It is such a crucial read for any leader.  Connect with Steve www.stevecusswords.com @stevecusswords Managing Leadership Anxiety
