Drawing on adult development research and a real-world story I unpack why what once worked eventually stops working, how to recognize the season you’re in right now, and what each season of leadership is asking of you. If you’ve been working harder but feeling less energized, oddly uninspired, or ready for your next role, this episode offers a deeply reassuring and practical reset — you’re not doing leadership wrong, you’re in a season, and learning to work with it is the key to your next chapter of clarity, ease, and impact.
