The Leader in You
87. Your Future Self Will Thank You - If You Master This First
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
What if the most important leadership skill isn’t how you manage others—but how you manage yourself?
In this episode, Dr. Lola Gershfeld and Niamh Hannan explore how the Emotional Connection (EmC) process can be used for self-development—helping you recognize when you’re triggered, understand your negative cycle, and shift out of reactive patterns that damage connection.
You’ll learn how to slow down, get curious about your emotions, and use the EmC Reconnection Form to become more grounded, present, and intentional—especially in high-stakes moments.
Because the way you show up with others starts with how you show up for yourself.
Your future self is shaped in the moments you choose awareness over protection—and connection over control.
