Just listen. Why is it important to listen? If you ever take on any recovery work, you'll notice a lot of what makes that so potent, which is simply that people listen. You share, they thank you for your share, they listen, and then they move on.  In this episode, Adam Quiney narrated a scenario he witnessed when a person didn't get the opportunity to feel heard in any of this. What they've got was being told what to do over some time. Listen and know why just listening is very important and the difference it creates by just practicing the art of just listening.

Humans are incredibly adaptive and tolerant. We are very reliable just like a frog who sits in hot boiling water slowly but surely dying. We can tolerate things and as we tolerate them more, they just slowly shift and become our baseline. It's not until there's an acute moment in our lives that people reach out and ask for support.  This is related to the subject of the regression towards the mean, or a phenomenon that is studied extensively in skeptical communities and in scientific communities where it comes to the efficacy of anecdotal evidence, which is to say you take a remedy and you conclude based on your subjective feeling. Listen as Adam Quiney discusses this topic and what it means about your motivation for transformation and creating a shift. Enjoy the show!

Have you heard of people who complain about people complaining? Why do people complain? In this episode of The Transformational Leader, Adam Quiney distinguished the three categories of people in terms of complaining:  The first group is those who don't care about things. Sometimes they complain, and sometimes they don't.  The next category is those people who complain about stuff.  The third category is those people who hate complaining and would never complain at all.  Some may think the last two categories are a total opposite, but they are not.  Listen as we dive deep into the ontology of complaining, how complaint is related to the idea of desire, and how we can be understanding to the part of us that wants to complain and other people who want to share their complaint with you.

What does it mean to stand? The stand is not a much-talked-about topic in leadership conversations. The art of standing is something that we learn not from a didactic or informational context, or just by knowing. It's more like about riding a bike. The way stand is best learned by having yourself stood for, and by getting to practice standing for people. By this, you get to see the internal experience in your own body and get the experience of someone loving you and holding you with compassion.  Listen as Adam Quiney, in this episode of The Transformational Leader, talks about the distinction of the stand, its importance in transformational conversation, and how it creates breakthroughs.

When people come into coaching or getting into leadership conversation, the starting point is a question of "What do you want to do?" One of the most common things leadership coaches hear is that people want to see their blind spots. The reason that being eager to see your blind spot is problematic is that inquiry allows you to avoid putting any skin in the game.  Listen as Adam Quiney talks about the fallacy of seeing a person's blind spot, and how you can put your attention on other things than focusing on seeing your blind spot.

In this week's episode of The Transformational Leader, Adam Quiney, whose profession involves selling relationships with people, introduced a new concept on how to learn to sell.  A lot of entrepreneurs end up being stuck in the idea of not having to feel the context and pain they have around rejection. They are no longer conscious of these rejections, so instead of creating a breakthrough in what they are doing, they end up just creating a thick callous. In this episode, you will learn how to sell. In Adam Quiney's context, moving from that place of saying, "Let me know shortly if you would like a coaching conversation," to asking a straightforward question, "Do you want a coaching conversation with me?" From this, you can now stand for them to be a yes or no. This will allow you to be clear with yourself and with them on how you can provide value to them.

If you are someone who does a lot of speaking and wants to be able to bring people along with you, this is an exceptional skill to develop, leading people's listening. When we are leading someone's listening, most of the time, we have an understanding of what we want to do, and then we just begin to speak from that place. What often happens is that people sit there listening, and they are stuck with the question in their mind: Why am I being told this? When we are given information like this, we don't have a context for our listening. How to lead someone's listening? How do leaders speak in such a way that they get heard? Why is it so important?

In this episode of The Transformational Leader, Adam Quiney discusses the ontology of reframing. He will briefly explain what is the ontological thing happening when we reframe. Reframing is about choosing how we want to relate to the circumstances of our lives. Most people frame the way they approach, feel about, and relate to life as it shows up.  What a lot of us want to do is figure out how to manage life perfectly, so that we only have to be with the people we find enjoyable or the job that we like doing. In short, we are basically trying to manage the circumstances of our lives to feel the way we want to feel. It will never work because life is infinite and will continue to find ways in. We can never fully control our circumstances, so trying to manage them puts us on the back foot.  Listen as Adam talks about the good side of reframing or when it is empowering and supportive, as well as the risk of making this like a duality of things.

Most people into coaching and leadership are on the wrong side of the distinction between 'The Path' and 'A Path.'

In this episode, Adam revisits the concept of a breakthrough which is often a missed concept and poorly understood.  How do we make breakthroughs happen? What most people think about breakthroughs is the things that they will get or the tangible results of it. We define our breakthroughs in terms of the outside world and our circumstances. This is not a very powerful way to define a breakthrough.  In ontological leadership, we work with breakthroughs in a different way. The specific definition of breakthrough is access to a new way of being.  Listen and learn more about breakthroughs, their misconceptions of them, and the kind of breakthrough we look forward to at a retreat.

He also talks about working with the fact that you are not going to get something right, and why not getting it right actually supports you in transforming. Usually, early on, people will explore things that they want to try and commit to move their lives forward and take on some practices.  Most of the time, the things we expect are not always the things that happen, and many people relate to that as a failure. You actually end up in the place that you think you shouldn't be and would rather avoid.  The miracle of coaching is that it brings you to that place, what shows up, and how you move beyond it.

What a great opening statement for 2025! In the first episode of the Transformational Leader for this year, Adam Quiney talks about this essential aspect of your journey in leadership. The journey of developing yourself as a leader through the experience of being with someone whose leadership is genuinely something they've worked on and spent time honing. When you work with a leader who has been managed for many years, the first thing you will see is their wisdom, skill, and capacity for leadership. You will hold them up in high regard and set aside yourself in honor of them. You will be glamoured by this experience, and you will stop seeing your leaders as human doing their best, but more special than that. The complication of this is once you trust your leaders fully, it will swing to the other side and just go with yourself.  This is the point where there is usually a breakdown, and what's going to happen no matter what is that your leader will continually let you down. The more you hold them on a pedestal, the more often they are going to let you down.  Listen and know more about this topic, enjoy the show!

There are three kinds of conversations that we usually see in coaching and leadership. These are neutral conversations, facilitative conversations, and transformational conversations. Transformational conversations are the type of conversation that most people get into coaching for. It is more of seeing your blind spots. Inside a transformational conversation, we are entering into the context that there are some things that you simply cannot see with your own eyes.  Facilitative conversation tends to be more of the steps you need to take. After the transformational conversation, the facilitative conversation aims to give you direction. This part of coaching can feel very confronting because it moves you into your fear.  Lastly, a neutral conversation is a conversation where the person basically doesn't have a gap. In this situation, we need to get curious about ourselves, and what are the things you need to happen in your life.

In this episode of The Transformational Leader, Adam Quiney distinguishes between trusting yourself versus being impenetrable. It is important to see the distinction between these two because they can look similar on the surface. A lot of leaders in the world believe that they are showing signs of trusting themselves. But the reality is that they are showing up in a particular way that is actually the antithesis of trusting themselves—they are the opposite of it. That is impenetrability. Impenetrability is where you have a belief or way of being in the world where you show up, and others can say anything to you because you trust yourself. It cannot make an impact on you because no matter what other people say, it just bounces off of you. Impenetrability or the inability of people to make an impact on you is a sign of a lack of trust. It is a sign of a lack of sovereignty. Listen and know more about this topic!

It is a way of being that is automatic and unconscious.   The way of being of being right. These are the leaders that if you volunteer something, they are already aware of it. They already know that. The underlying experience that this creates is that there is no way for you to actually have an impact; everything you bring bounces off.    While this is nice in that it provides a degree of certainty, like the leader always knows how to handle the situation, it creates the rest of us as followers because there is nothing we can really contribute. There is nothing we have to offer.   Listen as you will know the impact of being right. Enjoy the show!

Human nature is to experience a problem and want to solve it. That's what humans do. The trouble is we can't see with much altitude in our lives. We can see it with other people, but in terms of ourselves, we are stuck inside our perspective and our worldview. What that means is we don't see our beliefs as a set of beliefs.

The meaning of breakthrough, in Adam and his team's lenses, is access to a new way of being that was previously unavailable while a person's circumstances remain the same. The work of any transformational approach is to confront your resistance to what you fear. Whatever you want that is not currently available to you is locked behind the door made up of your fear and resistance to that fear. Listen and learn more of the lessons from the Intensive.

In the previous episode of The Transformational Leader, Adam Quiney talks about the heartbreak of leadership. The heartbreak of leadership occurs as you are leading someone, and they turn against you, fight with you, and argue with you. Today, we will look at the other angle. We can't see the new dimension. All we can do is pull whenever someone is trying to help us see beyond our current worldview. All we can do is pull that into our worldview. The whole process of leadership transformation starts here. You start getting very inspired and excited and suddenly, it will direct us back towards the world we know. What happens over time is we see our failure and not see our results.  This is where the heartbreak of leadership begins. Listen to know more and enjoy the show!

If you ask people who are high performers how they experience disappointment, they will tell you that they don't have a lot of disappointment in their life. Disappointments are uncommon for these people. What is going on is that people learn to perform and put out some excellent work, and they constantly try to outrun the specter of disappointment for themselves and other people. There is a pattern for high performers that leads to a great deal of burnout because there is an inability to slow down and take a rest. It is the trait or pattern where someone hurts and injures themselves and drives them crazy.  In this episode of The Transformational Leader with Adam Quiney, we will start to look at it from a different perspective. We will look at it not on how they have always been, but on how they became. Enjoy the show!

In this episode of The Transformational Leader, Adam Quiney talks about the danger of the typing model. The trouble with the typing systems is that they are ostensibly in service of helping people transform and grow, but what they do is diminish possibility. They take it off the table because if you relate to yourself as low emotionality, you will not bother investing that much time in it. You learn that emotions are a liability or you don't like how it feels when you are sad, so you start cutting off your sadness and thinking about it. When we cut off one emotion, we end up covering up the other emotions. A lot of these typing models are very ironic and they celebrate the fact that you are being diminished. Listen and know the dangers of labeling ourselves in a particular way. Enjoy the show!

In this episode of The Transformational Leader, Adam Quiney talks about the Ontology of Indecision.  If you find yourself indecisive, what often happens is you conclude "That's just the way I am, I am indecisive." It doesn't give you any other options but to label yourself indecisive. Looking at it ontologically, we are looking at how this way of being comes to be and discern the depth of being available there. Indecisiveness is someone who takes so long to make a decision. When you are looking at something through this lens, what it does is it tells us indecision is something learned or a pattern you learned along the way. As we understand that pattern, it helps you to see what is it that is causing this. When you get to the root of the issue, you can resolve it and have it go differently.

In this week's episode of The Transformational Leader by Adam Quiney, we will talk about the interaction of ontology and other models. It is the ontological layer and how it interacts with various models.  Once you work with people ontologically, it's not so much about a model as it is about cultivating in ourselves, the ability to deeply feel, see, listen, and speak to someone who is being below what they are doing. Most models are about a particular approach to speaking or a lens on how it is being done. The ontological layer interacts with these modalities so that we can have a deeper understanding of how these all play out. Listen and know more about how the ability to look, see, and experience the ontology of the moment of how someone is being will support us no matter what model, modality, or approach we are using.

Growing up, we learn of particular ways to survive our circumstances. When we reach the capacity of willingness to keep doing the stuff or experience a growing level of resentment or frustration, external circumstances will occur to us like they are the issue.  We are fixated on the issue that we can see externally. We aren't aware that what we see is a mirror or reflection of ourselves projected out in the world. It will result in us changing our jobs, fields, careers, spouses, or everything in our lives.

In this episode of The Transformational Leader, Adam Quiney dives deep into the ontology of the legal profession. The starting point for the legal profession is that people get into this profession with a really big heart and brain. People want to make a difference in the world, care so much about it, and want to see positive things happen. They also have brilliant minds and are very good at strategic, logical, and tactical thinking.  What happens with these people is that growing up, they learn a couple of things. They discover that having a big heart is a liability. When you have a big heart, you feel down a lot more. You feel a lot of disappointment, heartbreak, and betrayal. Because of this, we learn to shut the heart down and run everything up to our brain. Listen as you discover the impacts of this and other qualities people in the legal profession tend to have.

In this episode of The Transformational Leader, Adam Quiney is on a series of discussions about the energetic laws. Today, he discussed Energetic Law #6: "Love and power." The energetic law of love and power states that your power as a leader is proportional to the amount of love you can hold. The lesser the capacity to express and allow love, the lesser the capacity to express and allow power. There is a distinction between power and force. Anyone can be forceful. It requires no art, it requires no skill, and it does not need love. Forcefulness is the mark of the amateur leader. The force will tend to move something temporarily.  It is distinct from power. Power is the capacity to have the kind of impact you want to have.  Listen as we dive into this energetic law and how it impacts our leadership. Enjoy the show!

In this episode of The Transformational Leader, Adam Quiney will open a series of discussions about the energetic laws. These laws are things that you have spiritual or folk wisdom that leads to them.  Today, Adam discussed Energetic Law #5: "That which you resist, persists." The wisdom that follows this energetic law is that if you can let something be, it will let you be. This fifth law provides some insight into why the things that you must try to eliminate from your life tend to be the things that keep showing up. The fact that those things are actively continuing to be compliant for you is a function that you actively resist. The most obvious example of this is procrastination. By resisting the work, the work persists. Listen as we break down this energetic law and help you understand why that action is the case. Enjoy the show!
