The Folds That Shape Us: Embracing Life’s Permanent Creases
Description
In this episode of The Leadership Vision Podcast, hosts Nathan Freeburg, Dr. Linda Schubring, and Brian Schubring continue their conversation on themes from their book Unfolded: Lessons in Transformation from an Origami Crane.
The focus is on folds—the permanent creases created by early experiences, habits, and lessons that shape who we are. Brian shares his own anchor folds of work ethic, spirituality, and education, while Linda offers insights into how we can name and embrace our own folds without judgment.
Listeners will discover:
- Why anchor folds matter and how they influence leadership.
- How to name your folds and let them tell their story.
- The difference between working with your folds vs. against them.
- How transformation is possible through unfolding and refolding.
Whether you’re leading a team or reflecting on your own personal growth, this episode invites you to embrace your story, scars and all, as part of your leadership journey.
