from The Ghislain Maiden Podcast · host Ghislain Maiden
Why do so many brilliant women struggle to fully own their voice and power in leadership?In this episode, Ghislain shares the hidden reason many high-achieving women still hold themselves back. AND Strategy isn't the problem! It's their inner child trauma and nervous system safety.After working with hundreds of female leaders around the world, Ghislain shares how she's seen the same pattern again and again: women who are incredibly capable still shrink their voice, filter their opinions, and avoid visibility because their body doesn’t feel safe holding power.These patterns come from both acute and subtle childhood experiences, of being judged, criticised, or made to feel “not good enough.” Over time, the body stores these experiences and begins to protect itself by playing small.In this episode we explore:• Why women struggle with leadership confidence• The difference between acute trauma and subtle trauma• How childhood experiences shape leadership behaviour• Why people-pleasing and self-censorship show up in female leaders• How to start embodying unapologetic leadershipIf you’re ready to stop performing confidence and start embodying real power, this episode is for you.If you felt your body activate during this episode that's your sign.
