Today’s show opens up a new series called Leadership Sandtrap. These are ways to get people to show up in their leadership, as the sticky quicksand traps, providing short-term results, compelling for leaders or those practicing leadership. These short-term results make it hard to reflect on what they lack or their breakdown or next-edge leadership, brought about by the fear of what they created when they stopped doing the things they have always done, hindering them from making breakthroughs, leaving them stuck in the Sandtrap.
This episode is the debut of the Leadership Sandtrap series, entitled I Just Need To Grind. It is a common Sandtrap for leaders with a great deal of passion in their being. These leaders tend to swing into a hardcore work mode and a hardcore play mode and cycle back to hardcore work mode after playing hard. How it came to be, and more, will be discussed to know more about this kind of Sandtrap.
In this episode, listeners are encouraged to join The Forge. It is a coaching and leadership group that runs from September through May. It has limited virtual seats to fill. This opportunity will train joiners on the art of coaching, seeing the being, seeing who is present and showing up, stuff that gets on the way, or leading the light from within and drawing it out of people to step into the leadership.
Our hands are full of valuable inputs from this episode. Learn about Leadership Sandtrap through this series. Make sure not to skip a part of it. Enjoy while learning!

What occurs when this happens? For starters, you get to work more and more with whatever it is that you’re already comfortable with. This means you are stuck. There is no expansion.

A gradient is the steepness with which we confront you and present whatever work there is for you to do. It’s like going into a gym and picking up a 6,000-pound weight. That rate is going to be a high gradient for your muscles to adapt to, while a low-pound weight might be too low of a gradient. In transformational work, we seek to find the gradient that is going to support you.
In this thought-provoking episode, Adam Quiney explores the trap of the high gradient—the often misguided belief that transformation must be intense, difficult, or dramatic to be effective. Listen and enjoy the show! -
An ontological leader can bring the being of a leader to whatever they are doing. One of the things that an ontological leader does is to perpetually be at choice for what is happening.
What we mean by we are choice is that we are choosing what is going on, which allows us to be empowered by what we are up to.
In this episode of The Transformational Leader, Adam Quiney dives into the profound concept of choice and its role in authentic leadership. He distinguishes between traditional, circumstantial thinking and a deeper ontological approach, where leadership is about who you are being, not just what you are doing. Enjoy the show!

Just listen.
Why is it important to listen? If you ever take on any recovery work, you'll notice a lot of what makes that so potent, which is simply that people listen. You share, they thank you for your share, they listen, and then they move on.

Humans are incredibly adaptive and tolerant. We are very reliable just like a frog who sits in hot boiling water slowly but surely dying. We can tolerate things and as we tolerate them more, they just slowly shift and become our baseline. It's not until there's an acute moment in our lives that people reach out and ask for support.
This is related to the subject of the regression towards the mean, or a phenomenon that is studied extensively in skeptical communities and in scientific communities where it comes to the efficacy of anecdotal evidence, which is to say you take a remedy and you conclude based on your subjective feeling.
Listen as Adam Quiney discusses this topic and what it means about your motivation for transformation and creating a shift. Enjoy the show!

What does it mean to stand? The stand is not a much-talked-about topic in leadership conversations.
The art of standing is something that we learn not from a didactic or informational context, or just by knowing. It's more like about riding a bike. The way stand is best learned by having yourself stood for, and by getting to practice standing for people. By this, you get to see the internal experience in your own body and get the experience of someone loving you and holding you with compassion.
Listen as Adam Quiney, in this episode of The Transformational Leader, talks about the distinction of the stand, its importance in transformational conversation, and how it creates breakthroughs. Enjoy the show!

One of the most common things leadership coaches hear is that people want to see their blind spots. The reason that being eager to see your blind spot is problematic is that inquiry allows you to avoid putting any skin in the game.
Listen as Adam Quiney talks about the fallacy of seeing a person's blind spot, and how you can put your attention on other things than focusing on seeing your blind spot. Enjoy the show!

In this episode of The Transformational Leader, we will get to know Donald Trump. Yes, you read it right. We get to know Trump on the ontological level, the service of addressing being rather than doing, being able to see things at a deeper level than just what we are doing on the surface and understanding things with a little bit more (0:22) depth and clarity.
Everyone's favorite person at this point is Trump. It is either you love him or you hate him, and you probably aren't very keen on him, not very bland or beige on him. To distinguish Trump's ontology, we must look at him in a few ways and model a couple of things.
Listen as we dive deep into this intriguing topic and see the ontology of Trump in a new perspective. Enjoy the show!
