My guest this week is Kevin Hancock, author of the recent book, The Seventh Power: One CEO’s Journey into the Business of Shared Leadership (affiliate link). I loved this conversation with Kevin. There were so many profound points that emerged as we explored what it means to find our voice, and to be heard. This topic is close to my heart for several reasons, including my own history of vocal difficulties and throat surgery. As you’ll hear, Kevin has dealt with a rare neurological condition that affects his voice, and now he completely embraces and owns his unique voice as he encourages others to embrace their own voice. I know you’ll get a lot out of this discussion. Topics we covered included: Kevin’s interest in indigenous cultures What the seventh power is Shared leadership as respect for all voices Kevin’s experience of spasmodic dysphonia How his voice condition led him to a different model of leadership The intersection of my history of vocal difficulties and my guest’s experience How easy it is to take the voice for granted What it’s like to not feel authentically heard, broadly defined What if everybody on earth felt trusted, respected, valued, and heard? What is the purpose of a human life on earth? The quest to self-actualize (see this previous episode with author and psychologist Dr. Scott Barry Kaufman: How to Transcend Fear, Anxiety, & Uncertainty) Identifying, loving, owning, and gifting one’s unique voice Seeing his condition as a gift, not an outside invader Recognizing that your voice is perfect exactly as it is Listening for understanding, not judgment What it means to heal Why simply being present is a pathway to change Dealing with frustration and feeling sorry for ourselves What keeps my guest going The importance of the questions we ask ourselves and the intentions we set The precept “Know thyself” Why specific places can help us find our voice Finding your own path and what brings you alive—regardless of what others might think I hope this conversation inspires you to love and share your own unique voice.
