I Read Two Paragraphs on Holiday and Realised I'd Been Performing a Version of Myself for Years

from Lead Well · host Trevor Hill

On holiday Trevor read two paragraphs in a book that named something he'd been living for years without a word for it. The pattern of making himself agreeable rather than present. Of leaving rooms feeling accepted but never quite remembered.In this episode he talks about where that pattern comes from, what it does to your confidence and your leadership over time, and what it feels like when you finally start taking yourself back. Including the word a drunk woman called him at a party that he had to look up. And a hopscotch game at Fleet services.This episode was originally recorded for The Lead Well YouTube channel.
