If your vision is big but your pace keeps breaking you, this episode will help you rebuild from the inside out. Because small, identity-aligned shifts aren’t a compromise — they’re the way forward.
Whether you’re a leader holding the weight of your team, a parent trying to stay present, or a high performer whose old pace is no longer sustainable, you’ll discover why slow, steady, identity-rooted movement changes everything.
We introduce Pillar 3: Micro-Changes from the Identity-Level Recalibration pathway — and explore what your nervous system, leadership, and future self actually need to grow with peace and power.
What we explore in this episode:
- Why high-capacity leaders often reject what feels “too small”
- How overfunctioning masks deep nervous system resistance
- The internal tug-of-war between big goals and personal bandwidth
- A real story from an ILR cohort that reframed self-trust
- Why familiar patterns feel safer — even when they’re misaligned
- What James Dyson’s 5,127 micro-movements teach us about staying with the work
- How to move at a pace your body, life, and leadership can hold
Today’s Micro-Recalibration:
Pause the part of you that believes more pressure means more progress.
Ask yourself:
- Where have I been undervaluing a small step because it doesn’t “feel big enough”?
- Is my resistance about clarity — or discomfort with slowness?
- What’s one micro-move that reflects who I’m becoming, not who I’ve been?
You don’t have to overhaul it all — you just need to move with intention today.
