73. Five Objects 10: Learning grace under pressure

A regular routine checkup gone terribly wrong, leaving a nerve wrecking scar of a Complex Regional Pain Syndrome in the life of Nina Pustilnik, had an impact on her beyond what we would think. While anger, sadness, and failure were the obvious outcomes, what was unanticipated was the revolutionary impact that Nina’s condition had on her leadership style. From someone who always shone the light on just herself, and couldn’t care less about the needs of her team members, she suddenly became a leader who brought everybody else in the limelight, enabled space for every single member to become their very best, and lead with absolute purpose and inclusivity.In this new episode, we navigate through anger, resilience, grace, vulnerability and empathy as we discuss the things Nina experienced in her journey at Warner Bros, Stanford, the very many medical rooms and her leading life.
