In this episode, Iām sharing the audio version of my latest Substack article: The Case for Being Uncoachable: Why Trusting Yourself Beats Following the Map (Sometimes).
Inspired by a real-life moment where I told Google Maps āno thanksā and trusted my own route home, this episode explores:
ā¢ Why trusting your inner GPS is a leadership skill worth cultivating
ā¢ The danger of drowning in well-meaning advice (especially when you're training for a trek in Nepal!)
ā¢ A killer reframe from Alan Weiss that turns āCan I?ā into āShould I?ā
ā¢ Why ābeing coachableā isnāt always a virtueāand how to filter advice through your own goals
ā¢ Andā¦ a bold new idea Iāve been sitting on: Con Con (The Consultant Convention!) š“š¼
Plus, I share a few questions for reflection:
ā¢ What advice have you recently declined?
ā¢ What idea are you ready to finally release into the wild?
š Also! Youāre invited to the next Talk the Walk livestream with Alan Weiss and me:
