## Resource

If you’ve ever set leadership goals you truly care about — delegating more, leading more strategically, protecting your energy — only to find yourself slipping back into the same patterns a few months later, this episode is for you. We’ll explore why leadership self-sabotage isn’t a flaw or lack of discipline, but the result of unconscious patterns that once kept you safe and successful. Drawing on adult development research and real-world healthcare leadership examples, this episode helps you recognize the protective roles you default to under pressure, understand how they quietly undermine your goals, and learn how small, safe experiments can update those patterns without burnout or force. If leadership has started to feel repetitive, heavy, or misaligned, this conversation will help you stop self-sabotaging and begin building a leadership life that actually fits who you are now.
