Manage episode 502753192 series 3544114
Ted Santos is a business strategist, a leadership disruptor who challenges the status quo and trains and develops CEOs, executives, and entrepreneurs to create problems instead of solving them to fuel breakthrough growth. As the creator of the Disruptive Leadership Model, Ted equips leaders to master chaos, engineer transformation, and scale the impossible without breaking their businesses or themselves.
Childhood experiences shape more than just memories; they secretly control your adult identity, career choices, and even your confidence. In this powerful Part 2 interview with Ted Santos, we explore how early stories and interpretations influence high performers, relationships, and the way we think.
Ted debunks the myth of identity grief, reveals why change doesn’t have to be painful, and explains his minefield analogy for navigating the hidden “mines” in your mind. You’ll learn how childhood embarrassment can push someone into an “always right” career like law, why true power comes from conversations (not your nervous system), and how asking one question, “Is this true?”, can transform your thinking.
We also cover how to take 100% responsibility for your thoughts, move from shy introvert to confident connector, and why commitment beyond identity is the key for high performers.
