New podcast episode available! What does movement look like in a ventral business?
Turning ideas into tasks and actions can easily trigger our nervous systems into a swing state. When two or more people collaborate, the increased complexity makes these swings even more likely, often leading to doubt, fear, and an inability to achieve our goals. However, with conscious awareness of our nervous system's signals, we can learn, intuit, and act with greater confidence.
In business, we typically set visions, hold planning meetings, establish deadlines, align on collaboration methods, and set boundaries. But how aware are we of the reasons behind these processes? In this episode,Kim van Niekerk and I explore how to identify nervous system triggers, understand what causes swings, and use this awareness to navigate meetings with clarity and emotional intelligence.
Drawing from two insightful books—Living Beautifully with Uncertainty and Change by Pema Chodron (thanks Ramona Fellermeier for the recommendation) and Choose Wonder Over Worry by Amber Rae—they share valuable strategies for addressing unhelpful thought patterns and guiding your team toward greater collaboration and success.
Enjoy and please do share how you access a ventral state while you plan, execute and "move" at work.
