Over #zigszagsandpivots

#zigszagsandpivots explores what it really takes to navigate change—when the path isn't straight, the plan shifts, or life nudges you (sometimes firmly) in a new direction. Each episode dives into honest conversations about leadership, identity, resilience, and decision-making, featuring voices you can learn from: experienced leaders, thoughtful practitioners, and everyday people who've faced pivotal moments and chosen to move forward anyway. These aren't polished success stories—they're real reflections on what holds steady, what evolves, and what carries us through transition. Whether you're standing at a crossroads, leading through uncertainty, or simply rethinking what's next, this podcast offers perspective, insight, and the reassurance that you're not navigating change alone. #zigszagsandpivots is brought to you by the Leader Transition Institute.

#zigszagsandpivots | Season 6 | Episode 0

Episode Zero: Why This Season Sounds Different Before the season officially begins, this episode pauses long enough to explain the shift. Episode Zero is an orientation—not to the podcast, but to where this season is coming from. Instead of interviews and polished takeaways, this season moves closer to the lived experience of leadership: the middle of it, where answers aren't finished and decisions still carry weight. Drawing from years of leading in environments shaped by constant change—first in the military, then as an entrepreneur and nonprofit leader—this episode explains why the format changed and what listeners can expect going forward. Not because the old way stopped working, but because something deeper shifted. This season is less about presenting conclusions and more about working through questions leaders are quietly carrying: * What happens when you've outgrown a role, but not the responsibility? * How do you lead well when your environment hasn't caught up to who you're becoming? * How do you stay grounded when expectations keep shifting—but the stakes remain high? You'll hear ideas in progress. You'll hear pauses. You'll hear leadership from the inside—not the highlight reel. If you're navigating transition, sensing your leadership evolve, or feeling stretched between who you've been and who you're becoming, this season is designed to meet you there. Episode One is where the real work begins.
