Why Collaboration Feels Hard (and What Makes It Worth It)
Manage episode 494571663 series 2984308
In this solo episode, Dr. Amanda Crowell pulls back the curtain on what it really takes to move from lone wolf to collaborative creator. Born of her own struggles—and the behind-the-scenes story of writing Chapter 7 of the second edition of Great Work—this episode explores the three biggest mindset shifts Amanda had to make in order to collaborate without losing herself.
You’ll hear how she learned to:
- Stop chasing “ease” and start thinking strategically
- Navigate drama with clarity and connection
- Ask for help early (instead of right before the finish line)
Plus, Amanda shares the story of the Great Work book’s near-total rewrite, why perfectionism delays good collaboration, and how to spot the moment when real magic starts to unfold.
