What defines us?
With all the messages we receive daily, admonishing us to be or do something, what is the common thread through which all of us are interwoven?
Returning to The Self Help Antidote for yet another fascinating and provocative conversation is Daniel Ellenberg PhD, a leadership coach, licensed therapist, organizational trainer and executive advisor.
Dr. Ellenberg is the president of Relationships That Work – an organization that supports people to create more emotionally intelligent personal relationships. He is the Vice President of the Rewire Leadership Institute, an organization that helps individuals, teams and organizations thrive in the business world.
He is the co-author of Lovers for Life: Creating Lasting Passion, Trust and True Partnership, and served as President of the American Psychological Associations Division 51: Society for the Psychological Study of Men and Masculinities.
In this episode we discuss the different archetypes and roles we play in society and why Dr. Ellenberg believes that many of the masculine and feminine traits we exhibit are less about gender classifications and more about human attributes that help us understand ourselves and one another.
We discuss how each of our traits yield advantages and liabilities. What are the shared facets of life that unite us? And, why the key to resilience lies in part with our ability to remain flexible in life, expressing ourselves authentically.
