Embracing Pain, Remembering Joy with Amy Elizabeth Fox

We’ve been talking about “feeling more” so we can access more wisdom in our leadership, but what if we’re really good at avoiding pain?

In the final week of season three of the Tension of Emergence, Jennifer delves into the question of how to work with personal and collective pain with the co-founder of Mobius Executive Leadership and expert in trauma-informed development, Amy Elizabeth Fox. Together they break down the illusory binary between the personal/professional, individual/collective and pain/joy.

They also share—

  • Three stages of working with pain and how to transmute pain into possibility
  • How the privatization of healing has gotten us into trouble
  • Why communal witnessing can shift everything

Tune in for an in-depth exploration of how to work with personal and collective pain so that you can access more joy, presence and liberation.
