Tune into my interview on the Wisdom Qigong Uncovered podcast as I discuss the wisdom innate to our bodies.

Holistic leadership means that when we work together, we're going to get real, which means deal with the most pressing issue. If you locked your keys in the car, for example, before you jump on a call with me, and you're upset, not dealing with that will sideline our call.

If you blame your partner for locking the car without being curious, you likely blame your team member for a project gone sideways.
