In episode six, Tim and Tuesday explore the role played by limiting beliefs in their work on systems change, equity and leadership—and the practice of letting them go.1.06 —— SHOW NOTESCan working with our limiting beliefs be liberating? Is it possible (or even advisable) to eliminate our limiting beliefs?What kind of limiting beliefs show up most frequently in your work?Can you remember something you once believed that you no longer believe?We talk about our beliefs as limiting, because we spend a lot of our time loosening them up.Culture eats strategy for lunch.
