## Resource

In today’s episode, I sit down with Brianna Sylver, founder and president of Sylver Consulting, to talk about why resistance is often the first step toward meaningful growth. We discuss the ideas behind her book Leading Through Free Fall , including how individuals, teams, and organizations can navigate uncertainty with greater clarity, trust, and compassion. Brianna explains the difference between resistance and rejection, why leaders should embrace vulnerability during times of change, and shares practical frameworks that help transform fear into collaboration. We also explore how free fall can become the path to stronger leadership, better decision-making, and lasting innovation.
