Just Kidding

Ever been in a professional meeting, a grown-up, serious, adult conversation, and somebody says one thing that hits you the wrong way, and suddenly you’re not a leader anymore? You’re seven. The playground version of you just hijacked the boardroom version of you, and now you’re saying things that the real you is going to regret by lunch. That’s age regression, and it happens to all of us.In this episode, I’ll get honest about what triggers the kid in me to make cameos at the worst possible times, and I’ll walk you through how to recognize it, interrupt it, and make sure the grown-up shows up to grown-up conversations. Because the most important person to bring to your next hard conversation isn’t a mediator or a therapist. It’s your adult self.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​
