Today, we are joined by Susan Winchester.Susan Schmitt Winchester is a former Chief Human Resources Officer of Applied Materials and co-author of Healing at Work, Susan brings more than 35 years of senior HR experience—and a deeply personal mission to help professionals transform workplace pain into personal growth. Drawing from her own experience as an Adult Survivor of a Damaged Past, she combines science, storytelling, and strategy to help us turn our triggers into triumphs.In this episode, we explore how our past experiences, particularly childhood wounds, show up in workplace behaviors and how leaders can transform these patterns into sources of strength and resilience. Susan introduces the concept of ASDP (Adult Survivors of a Damaged Past) and reveals how nearly 67% of adults have experienced significant adversity before age 18, yet many remain unaware of how these experiences drive their professional reactions. Through real-world examples and research-backed strategies, we discover how workplace conflicts—what Susan calls "bumper car moments"—can become powerful opportunities for healing and growth rather than sources of ongoing pain.Key topics include:Understanding ASDP (Adult Survivors of a Damaged Past) and how childhood experiences manifest in workplace behaviors like perfectionism, people-pleasing, and fear of criticismThe difference between the unconscious wounded career path and the conscious healing career path, and how to make the shiftHow "bumper car moments" - workplace conflicts and triggers - can become catalysts for transformation rather than sources of sufferingThe Rapid Power Reclaim method for pausing, creating choice, and responding from strength rather than reacting from old woundsPractical strategies for managers to support team members while maintaining appropriate boundaries and focusing on performanceLearn from Susan's insights how to recognize when past experiences are driving current workplace behaviors and gain practical tools for creating psychological safety in your organization. Discover why celebrating small wins is crucial for rewiring neural pathways, how to interrupt negative self-talk with simple questions like "Am I sure?", and why vulnerability in leadership creates stronger, more resilient teams that perform at higher levels.Susan Winchester's Website: https://susanwinchester.comSusan Winchester's LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/susanschmittwinchester/Healing at Work Book: https://healingatwork.com/about-the-book/-Website and live online programs: http://ims-online.comBlog: https://blog.ims-online.com/Podcast: https://ims-online.com/podcasts/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/charlesagood/Twitter: https://twitter.com/charlesgood99Chapters:(00:00) Introduction(01:00) Susan's Journey and What Inspired the Book(03:45) Understanding ASDP - Adult Survivors of a Damaged Past(06:45) How Childhood Wounds Show Up in Workplace Behaviors(12:00) Moving from Unconscious to Conscious Career Paths(16:45) Bumper Car Moments as Catalysts for Growth(19:00) The Science of Neuroplasticity and Positive Change(22:00) Supporting Employees While Respecting Boundaries(27:00) The Power of Celebrating Small Wins(33:00) Interrupting Negative Self-Talk and Limiting Beliefs(39:00) Integrating Healing Principles into Organizational Culture(44:00) Handling Feedback When It Triggers Old Wounds(50:00) Red Flags of the Unconscious Wounded Career Path(55:00) Conclusion

Why do women receive only 2% of venture capital, even though women-founded companies outperform men's by 63%? In this powerful interview with Wendy Ryan, executive producer of Show Her The Money, we uncover the stories, strategies, and secrets driving a movement to close the funding gap for women entrepreneurs.

Dr. Margaret Heffernan has written six books including "Willful Blindness: Why We Ignore the Obvious at Our Peril" and "Uncharted: How to Navigate the Future," both widely recognized as top business books. Dr. Heffernan returns to the Leadership Podcast with insights from her new book "Embracing Uncertainty: How writers, musicians and artists thrive in an unpredictable world." She challenges conventional wisdom on how we think about decision-making in uncertain times. She reveals why leaders need to step away from predictive algorithms and reclaim their human capacity for intuition.  She discusses the difference between healthy uncertainty and harmful vagueness, sharing practical techniques for leaders who want to make better decisions without drowning in endless analysis. She reveals why agenda-free meetings often produce better results than structured ones, and how silence can be more powerful than speaking. Through personal examples, Dr. Heffernan demonstrates how apparent failures can become unexpected successes when we learn to sit with uncertainty rather than rush to conclusions.  This episode provides actionable insights for leaders who want to navigate uncertainty with confidence, make decisions with incomplete information, and create space for the unexpected insights that drive breakthrough thinking. You can find episode 472 wherever you get your podcasts! Watch this Episode on YouTube |   Key Takeaways [03:32] Dr. Heffernan reveals what's not in her public bio: she's been trying to grow vegetables for about 10 years and is still absolutely terrible at it, and she's currently learning Italian, which is a deeply humbling experience. [04:53] Dr. Heffernan explains that leaders can reclaim intuition for better decision-making by absorbing quality information through everyday observations—like walking city streets or eavesdropping on conversations—to "restock their mental kitchen" with rich ingredients that will inform future choices when needed. [10:11] Dr. Heffernan confirms that when you slow down, thoughts bubble to the surface - some mundane like "oh God, I forgot to feed the cat," others valuable like identifying the right person for a job that your brain was processing subconsciously. [11:59] Dr. Heffernan distinguishes between necessary ambiguity and harmful vagueness by explaining that decisions are always ambiguous because they're "hypotheses about the future," but harmful vagueness occurs when leaders don't ask clear questions or establish what decision needs to be made.  [17:09] Dr. Heffernan describes transforming a board she chairs from having overly strict agendas to focusing on "what are the three most important things we need to be talking about right now," explaining she has more often seen time wasted from detailed agendas than loose ones. [20:33] Dr. Heffernan explains that "action is how you search" - you can talk, think, and research forever, but the only way to know if something will work is to start, emphasizing that what really matters is beginning, not necessarily where you start. [23:06] Dr. Heffernan suggests that risk tolerance may actually be lower than ever before, but people's level of anxiety drives them to reduce risk, working with wealthy companies whose "risk aversion is almost tangible" despite having enormous resources. [24:36] Dr. Heffernan acknowledges that artists and musicians must be vulnerable to put themselves out there, but explains that most people she's worked with have high risk tolerance because "if you're going to do something meaningful and worthwhile, probably going to be something you haven't done before." [26:35] Dr. Heffernan shares that her book "Willful Blindness" initially seemed like a failure with only a couple of reviews after six months, but took off after making the Financial Times Business Book Award longlist and continues to have readers over a decade later. [28:53] Dr. Heffernan explains her motivation for writing "Embracing Uncertainty" stems from her belief that "the marginalization of the humanities and the arts, the defunding of the arts" is doing "immense harm" and represents "a gigantic loss, not just to the arts, but to all aspects of life." [32:01] Dr. Heffernan outlines her ideal leadership retreat opening: "sending people out for a walk and coming back to report what they saw," explaining this practice "wandering around stuff" and would reveal amazingly different observations from different people. [33:43] Dr. Heffernan suggests the better instruction for the walking exercise would be "noticed" rather than "saw" because "you could notice in all sorts of different ways," allowing people to focus on hearing, feeling, or thinking differently. [40:57] Dr. Heffernan explains she's become "much less concerned about planning now," leaving more margins for things to go wrong and scheduling less frantically to create "space and time for things to happen." [42:39] Dr. Heffernan describes a transformative experiment where she appointed herself "the listener" in meetings, discovering that when you're not looking for moments to speak, "you actually are listening to the person who's speaking instead of rehearsing in your mind what you're going to say next." [45:48] Dr. Heffernan concludes that leaders should remember "what's uncertain is a whole range of things that are possible" and warns against "demanding too much certainty too fast" because "what's certain is what's known and something you've done before," while innovation requires exploring uncertainty rather than shutting it down. [46:57] And remember...“Uncertainty is a very good thing: it's the beginning of an investigation, and the investigation should never end.” - Tim Crouch Quotable Quotes "Intuition is a very accelerated retrieval of a lot of stuff that's been roaming around in your head. The issue is, how do you make sure that the stuff roaming around in your head is quality stuff." "Action is how you search. You can talk about stuff forever. You can think about stuff forever. You can research stuff forever. But the acid test is, do you start?" "What's uncertain is a whole range of things that are possible. Be careful of demanding too much certainty too fast in too many domains because what's certain is what's known and something you've done before." "If you're desperate to speak, you don't listen. I realized that's what I'd been doing a lot of my life - looking for the moment where I could land my brilliant contribution." "The only way I can know if I can write a book is to write a book. I can think about it forever, but actually, I will never know unless I do it."   These are the books mentioned in this episode   Resources Mentioned The Leadership Podcast | Sponsored by | Rafti Advisors.

“We tend to do things because that's the way it's always been, not because it's the right answer.”In this episode, Belonging and Connection Strategist, Dr. Roz Cohen, shares a practical approach to hiring practices that foster employee engagement and belonging at work, as well as how leaders can share the mental load of being the person who does it all.This conversation is so refreshing in that Dr. Roz takes big concept ideas, such as hiring practices, employee engagement, inclusive leadership, connection and belonging, and breaks them down into incredibly relevant questions and actionable behaviors, specific to you and your organization.The more we can create the environment Dr. Roz suggests, the happier people will be in our organization, including us!—Dr. Roz Cohen has spent over two decades proving that great workplaces aren't built on policies alone—they're built on real human connections. As Chief People Officer at LNW Advisors and founder of Socius Strategies, she's made it her mission to help organizations create cultures where everyone truly belongs. Roz's journey through HR leadership has taken her from the magic of Disney to the fast-paced world of Banc of America Securities and Hall Capital Partners. Along the way, she's discovered that whether you're entertaining millions or managing billions, the secret ingredient is always the same: authentic relationships and inclusive leadership. With her Ph.D. in Leadership and Change from Antioch University and credentials as both an SPHR® and SHRM-SCP, Roz brings serious expertise to her work. But ask anyone who's worked with her, and they'll tell you she's just as likely to roll up her sleeves and dig into the real challenges facing teams today. When she's not busy changing workplace cultures one connection at a time, you might find Roz training for the NYC Marathon, exploring new cuisines, or planning her next travel adventure. Her philosophy is simple: we all thrive when we feel genuinely connected to the work we do and the people we do it with.Learn more about and connect with Dr. Roz at https://lnwadvisors.com/bio/rosalind-f-cohen-ph-d-sphr/ and https://www.linkedin.com/in/rosalindfcohen.

If you've ever thought, “Why do I keep overreacting in meetings” or “I just can't shut my brain off,” this episode is for you. The problem isn't your brain. It's that no one ever taught you how to manage your mind.   In this episode of Unlocked, I sit down with Dr. Caroline Leaf - neuroscientist, bestselling author of 19 books, and someone who's been helping people untangle their thought life for over 40 years. She breaks down the difference between the mind and the brain, why the brain is more like a storage device than a decision maker, and how leaders can take back control when their emotions hijack the moment.   We also get into why “mind hacks” work, how long it actually takes to rewire a belief (hint: it's not 21 days), and whether AI can ever truly empathize with us. Spoiler: it cannot.   If you feel stuck in mental loops that sabotage your clarity, confidence, or leadership, this episode will show you the science and strategy to step out of reactivity and into ownership.   Website: helpinahurrybook.com
