🤔 Have you ever thought, “I don’t really need that development opportunity”?

It’s Thought-Provoking Thursday and time for another Rosie-in-my-Pocket...

Sometimes we resist coaching, training or reflection because we’re busy.

Other times, it’s because we think we should already know enough.

But what if that mindset is quietly getting in the way of our growth?

In this short episode, I’m sharing a few perspectives that may challenge how you think about development—no matter your title, experience or stage of your career. 😉

🎧 Give it a listen: https://sites.libsyn.com/370919/rosie-in-my-pocket-not-being-above-development

Then ask yourself:

❓ Where might you be getting a little too comfortable?

09/03/2026

Perfectionism can convince us that if we can’t get it exactly right, we shouldn’t move forward at all.

But growth happens when we give ourselves permission to try, learn, adjust, and keep going. ✨

When getting it exactly right keeps you overworking, delaying, or taking over, ask:

𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝘄𝗼𝘂𝗹𝗱 𝗯𝗲 𝗴𝗼𝗼𝗱 𝗲𝗻𝗼𝘂𝗴𝗵 𝘁𝗼 𝗺𝗼𝘃𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗳𝗼𝗿𝘄𝗮𝗿𝗱?

And if this resonates, feel free to download the quote card and hang it up as a daily reminder.

You've got this! 🩷

Belonging does not require self-abandonment.

People-pleasing may keep the peace for a moment—but too often, it costs us our voice.

We say yes when we mean no.
We stay quiet when something matters.
We prioritize someone else’s comfort over our own truth.

Real belonging has room for boundaries, disagreement, honesty—and the fullest version of you.

So ask yourself:

𝗪𝗵𝗲𝗿𝗲 𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝘁𝗿𝗮𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝘃𝗼𝗶𝗰𝗲 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝘁𝗲𝗺𝗽𝗼𝗿𝗮𝗿𝘆 𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗳𝗼𝗿𝘁?

You can care deeply about others without abandoning yourself in the process.

Change is hard enough. Please don’t make people guess their way through it. 🙃

I’m bringing back my conversation with Carajane Searcy Moore about one of the most overlooked pieces of successful organizational change: 𝗺𝗶𝗱𝗱𝗹𝗲 𝗺𝗮𝗻𝗮𝗴𝗲𝗿𝘀.

They’re often expected to translate the vision, answer questions, create alignment, AND support their teams—while navigating uncertainty themselves.

One reminder from our conversation says it all:

👉 𝗚𝗲𝗻𝗲𝗿𝗮𝗹 𝗿𝗲𝗾𝘂𝗲𝘀𝘁𝘀 𝗰𝗿𝗲𝗮𝘁𝗲 𝗳𝗮𝗶𝗹𝘂𝗿𝗲.

Clarity matters. Clear expectations matter. And when we don’t have the clarity we need, every one of us can lead by asking for it.

If you’re navigating change at work, or simply trying to communicate more effectively—there are so many practical nuggets in this conversation.

🤚 Raise your hand if you ever go to your phone to avoid a potentially awkward interaction or if you find yourself going to your phone rather than being fully present with people.

It's Thought-Provoking Thursday and time for another Rosie-in-my-Pocket...

In our 24/7 connected world, it is so easy to fill the spaces in our day with the digital; but there's a cost:

➡️ The more in our devices we are, the more our capacity to see and notice others diminishes (𝘸𝘩𝘪𝘤𝘩 𝘪𝘴 𝘢 𝘬𝘦𝘺 𝘱𝘢𝘳𝘵 𝘰𝘧 𝘮𝘢𝘵𝘵𝘦𝘳𝘪𝘯𝘨)

➡️ Every time we reach for our devices, we miss an opportunity to form a meaningful connection or even be a small bright spot in someone's day (𝘢𝘨𝘢𝘪𝘯, 𝘢 𝘬𝘦𝘺 𝘱𝘢𝘳𝘵 𝘰𝘧 𝘮𝘢𝘵𝘵𝘦𝘳𝘪𝘯𝘨)

➡️ When we go to our devices when we're with friends, family or loved ones, we send a message that they aren't that important or that whatever is on our phones matters more than they do (𝘪.𝘦., 𝘸𝘦 𝘤𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘵𝘦 𝘢𝘯 𝘦𝘹𝘱𝘦𝘳𝘪𝘦𝘯𝘤𝘦 𝘰𝘧 𝘢𝘯𝘵𝘪-𝘮𝘢𝘵𝘵𝘦𝘳𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘧𝘰𝘳 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘮)

I'm definitely guilty of this too. 🫤

Sometimes it's only when circumstances force us to not be on a device and interact with others that we can see the contrast.

In invite you to join me in intentionally creating "no-phone time" in your week to prioritize human connection over technology and notice what opens up for you and your relationships.

❓ Have you already made changes with your relationship with your phone? If so, what did you do and what difference has it made?

❓ If not, what are you going to put into practice that will be meaningful for you, and what difference are you hoping it will make?

I had such a great conversation with Glenn Llopis on his 𝗘𝗮𝗿𝗻𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗖𝗼𝗻𝘃𝗶𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗦𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗲𝘀 about something I believe we urgently need to rethink:

𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗶𝗳 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗹𝗲𝗮𝗱𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗵𝗶𝗽 𝗰𝗵𝗮𝗹𝗹𝗲𝗻𝗴𝗲 𝗶𝘀𝗻’𝘁 𝗮 𝗰𝗮𝗽𝗮𝗯𝗶𝗹𝗶𝘁𝘆 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝗯𝗹𝗲𝗺, 𝗯𝘂𝘁 𝗮𝗻 𝗼𝘂𝘁𝗱𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗱 𝗼𝗽𝗲𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘀𝘆𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗺?

This conversation gets to the heart of the work I explore in my book, 𝘍𝘶𝘵𝘶𝘳𝘦-𝘗𝘳𝘰𝘰𝘧𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘓𝘦𝘢𝘥𝘦𝘳𝘴𝘩𝘪𝘱: our outer leadership skills matter, but our inner operating system drives how effectively we can use them - especially when change, pressure, and uncertainty hit.

I revisited my podcast interview with performance coach and leadership development expert, David Gorsage, and it feels every bit as relevant today.

𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗱𝗼𝗲𝘀 𝗶𝘁 𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗹𝗹𝘆 𝘁𝗮𝗸𝗲 𝘁𝗼 𝗯𝗲𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗲 𝗮𝗻 𝗲𝘅𝘁𝗿𝗮𝗼𝗿𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗮𝗿𝘆 𝗹𝗲𝗮𝗱𝗲𝗿?

Not doing more. Not achieving more. And definitely not trying to become superhuman.

It starts with the 𝗶𝗻𝗻𝗲𝗿 𝗴𝗮𝗺𝗲—getting honest about the stories running in the background, noticing where we may be getting in our own way, and choosing one intentional step toward who we want to become.

In this article, I share my reflections and favorite takeaways from our conversation, and why they matter just as much today.

Because extraordinary leadership isn’t built all at once.

It’s built one intentional step at a time. ✨

I’d love to hear what resonates with you.

Change is hard enough without making people guess.

In this replay of the 𝘙𝘰𝘴𝘪𝘦 𝘪𝘯 𝘔𝘺 𝘗𝘰𝘤𝘬𝘦𝘵 podcast, I share one of my favorite practical tools for fostering clarity and alignment - which are critical when navigating change: 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝟱 𝗖’𝘀.

👉 How consistent and deliberate are you when it comes to creating and leveraging meaningful systems to support you in showing up as the courageous leader you want to be in your life?

It's Thought-Provoking Thursday and time for another Rosie-in-my-Pocket...

In Atomic Habits, James Clear writes that "we don't rise to the level of our goals; we fall to the level of our systems."

➡️ Neuroscientists estimate that we are on auto-pilot 90-95% of the time. This means our subconscious programming is in the driver's seat.

➡️ Even with deep transformation work to upgrade our inner programming / inner operating system, we can fall back on old patterns - especially in times of stress.

➡️ Creating and actively leveraging meaningful systems to fall back on when our humanity tries to get the best of us is a critical part of sustainable change - yet too often overlooked.

The most effective leaders I know are highly self-aware and know what systems they need in place (i.e., reminders, visuals, structures, processes) to help them not fall back into old patterns and remind them of who they want to be in this world.

It's not weakness. It's being smart and effective.

❓ What systems do you have in place that help you show up as the courageous, future-ready leader you want to be?

08/20/2026

Hard conversations? Yep. They’re a human thing. 😉

At work, at home, and everywhere in between, discomfort can make us avoid, over-explain, get defensive, or shut down.

The good news? We can get better at navigating it.

𝗖𝗼𝘂𝗿𝗮𝗴𝗲𝗼𝘂𝘀 𝗟𝗲𝗮𝗱𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗵𝗶𝗽 is about learning practical tools to help you stay grounded, get curious, and show up more like the person you want to be—even when things get messy.

And you definitely don’t need “leader” in your title to belong here. You just need to be human. 🩷

If you want more confidence, language, and practice for the conversations that matter, come join us for our upcoming 𝗖𝗼𝘂𝗿𝗮𝗴𝗲𝗼𝘂𝘀 𝗟𝗲𝗮𝗱𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗵𝗶𝗽 𝗣𝘂𝗯𝗹𝗶𝗰 𝗧𝗿𝗮𝗶𝗻𝗶𝗻𝗴.
