108: Permission to Change. Without Explaining Yourself
from Unapologetic Rabble-Rousers: An Exploration of Leadership · host Carla Lewis and Shellie Seyfarth
You don’t have to be who you were last year. Or yesterday. Or five minutes ago. In this conversation, we’re talking about permission—not the kind you ask for, but the kind you give yourself. Permission to change your mind. Your pace. Your priorities. Permission to stop performing a version of yourself that once kept you safe but now keeps you small. We dig into identity, nervous systems, old survival tactics, and the quiet ways we outgrow our own lives. No big announcements required. No justification necessary. Just honesty, awareness, and the courage to listen when something inside you says, this doesn’t fit anymore.
