E391: From Effort to Essence: The Evolution of Wise Leadership
Description
In this minisode, Jennifer invites listeners into a deeper exploration of how leaders truly grow over time—moving beyond effort, ego, and externally defined roles into wiser, more spacious, community-centered ways of leading. Drawing on adult development theory, mythic archetypes, and her own 30-year journey in advocacy, she unpacks the inner shifts that occur as we outgrow old identities and step into new forms of impact. From the firefighter to the constellation builder, Jennifer traces the evolving stages of leadership maturity and offers a compassionate roadmap for naming where you are, honoring who you've been, and imagining who you're becoming. This episode is an invitation to embrace presence over push, essence over achievement, and a leadership model rooted not in striving—but in wisdom, connection, and shared growth.
