Side Mirror: What's it like to be on the receiving end of you?

In these shorter Side Mirror episodes, I introduce concepts, tools, and experts that help you enable Fulfilling Performance for yourself and the people you lead and care about.

In this episode, I’m reflecting on a recent moment during a Fulfilling Performance session that brought fresh insight into how our past shapes the way we show up—and how long it can take for others to truly understand us.

We’ll explore how creating space for vulnerability in teams can unlock empathy, trust, and accountability—and ultimately help us perform more effectively together.
