Manage episode 349354343 series 2996658
Show Notes:
Wendy Palmer passed away on December 2nd, 2022. In honour of her passing I’m publishing a recast of the interview we had in March 2022. If you’ve not heard this conversation I know you’ll find it compelling. If you have, I suspect it may land a level deeper on second listen, knowing that her words are now reaching us from the beyond the boundaries of this earthly realm.
In this insightful conversation Wendy offers the wisdom she has spent a lifetime embodying. She held a seventh degree black belt in the non-violent Japanese martial art of Aikido, and was a mindfulness practitioner for over 40 years.
Drawing on the skills honed from both of these practices, she shares deceptively simple, fast and effective practices that support you to recover to center in stressful situations and respond creatively when life throws you off balance.
Wendy speaks to:
- the essential Aikido practice of “letting the attack land in the space”
- the 3 most essential qualities of leadership
- what it means to be truly resilient
- why boundaries don’t work and what actually does
- the levels of challenge we move through when we are practicing mastery
She also addresses the 3 strategies of personality self:
- head wants control
- heart wants approval
- gut wants security
And she teaches how we can access the powerful antidotes of perception, compassion and courage.
