Ep 393: Why Relief Isn't the Same as Freedom
The Transformational Leader
Relief can make life feel calmer, but it isn’t the same as freedom. When the anxiety settles, the overwhelm quiets, and life becomes more manageable, it’s easy to assume the work is done. But relief often comes from pulling back, managing ourselves, and staying within safer edges, reducing pain without expanding who we are.

Ep 390: From the Vault Ep 158 — Being a Clearing for Leadership.
The Transformational Leader
In today’s episode, I’d be tackling something even the most brilliant of leaders have difficulty dealing with—acknowledging their role in the way people under them are showing up. Understandably, if something is wrong with the team, it’s always easier to deal with the people and issues involved rather than examining your role as a leader in creating that clearing. If you want to feel more empowered as a leader, you need to look through different lenses to check how you are contributing to the issues and what you can do differently. All that and more in this episode!

The Transformational Leader – My Journey: Part 1
The Transformational Leader
On this week’s episode of The Transformational Leader, Adam kicks off a multi-part origin series tracing his path up to choosing coaching - an honest, unvarnished look at how a bright, passionate, open-hearted kid learned to dial down his own light. He explores the meanings he made from early structure and playground bruises, how “trauma” often lives in the stories we create about events, and the survival strategies that followed: hypervigilance, perfectionism, chameleon-like charm, overtalking to avoid intimacy, and numbing to feel creative or safe. Rather than the familiar arc of “it...

Ep 387: Resistance and Leadership
The Transformational Leader
We all say we want to lead better, but the moment real growth asks something of us, resistance kicks in. In this episode, Adam Quiney breaks down how resistance hides in our need for comfort, authenticity, and staying in control. Leadership only develops when we lean into the very things we avoid. Listen and enjoy!
