Fear & Leadership in the Mountains

How many times have we been told the story of the fearless leader — in work, in politics, in the mountains? When the stakes are high, it’s natural to place our confidence in strength and certainty. To turn to the leader and believe that they have no doubt, that they've built up a kind of resilience that will carry us all to safety.Today’s episode isn’t about how to become a fearless leader in the mountains. Nor is it about how to overcome your fear, or even how to harness it. But it is about listening to what fear is trying to teach us. It’s an opportunity to consider what kind of leader you need, as well as the one you might want to be.Lindsey Falkenburg shares the story of her season as a lead for BOEALPS, a mountaineering club in Seattle.Featured in this episode:  Lindsey Falkenburg, Ashley Abril, and Kristen JonesHosted & Produced by Gale StraubA production of Ravel MediaSponsored by  IKON Pass, BetterHelp, & DannerJoin the She Explores Podcast community on FacebookVisit She-Explores.com & Follow Us on InstagramResourcesFeatured in this episode:Lindsey Falkenburg - Instagram: @TandemTrekkingAshley Abril - Instagram: @ashjustgoesKristen Jones - Instagram:BOEALPS Ravel MediaSponsors and Discount CodesIKON Pass: Learn more about 20/21 winter season at IkonPass.com.Danner: Learn more about the Danner Trail 2650's.Betterhelp: Get 10% off your first month at Betterhelp.com/exploreEpisodes air weekly on Wednesdays-- subscribe wherever you listen so you never miss an episode.Ad Music is by Josh Woodward & Swelling
