Dark Woods Lessons
Manage episode 520263604 series 2981825
It’s a common misconception. The idea that the woods at night are quiet.
Don’t get me wrong. After 10 years in Las Vegas where it never gets dark and never really slows down, the woods are the opposite of that. Turn the lights out at night and it’s dark as pitch. The immediate sense is almost a pressure on the eardrums, the weight of silence.
I mean it’s certainly more quiet than any city or suburban area, but when you come to a dead stop in the woods at night, and truly let yourself hold steady, it’s anything but quiet.
And it's when I pause, when I truly hold steady that I can see the reality of a situation. In the episode I mention a remarkable Instagram account that has been offering up truly superb perspectives - perspectives about equity and being able to be present and connect ... no matter how different your beliefs are.
Here's the link to the account.
And that’s what I discuss this week.
In a world where what passes for radical honesty usually means someone is just letting things fly outta their pie-hole without much care for others, it’s time for radically authentic conversation. Conscious communication is simple, but often isn’t easy. That’s why Cathy Brooks created Talk, Unleashed – a weekly podcast of radically honest conversation about — everything. Whether her own musings or in conversation with industry leaders, each episode invites curiosity.
Curiosity not about what people do, but why they do it. Who they are and what makes them tick. It’s about digging underneath to reveal the thing that is most true - that we are more alike than we are not. A mix of solo episodes where Cathy shares her insights and experience or Cathy engaged in conversation with fascinating humans doing amazing things. No matter the format - it’s unvarnished, radically honest and entirely unleashed.
This podcast compliments Unleashed Leadership, the coaching business through which Cathy works with symphony orchestras, corporate clients, and individuals to help them unleash and untether their leadership and connect with others in a way that truly engages.
