You’re doing well at work, but something changes. A layoff, a canceled meeting, your boss goes quiet. And suddenly, your confidence takes a hit. That’s scarcity creeping in.

In this episode, I’m unpacking what it looks like when fear takes the wheel, even when your role is secure. I’ll share real client stories, personal reflections, and the ripple effects that happen when scarcity starts showing up in how we lead, communicate, and make decisions.

If you’ve been second-guessing yourself or holding back lately, let’s talk about what’s really going on and what you can do to shift out of it.

In this episode, I’ll cover:

  • How scarcity mindset shows up even when you’re not at risk
  • What leaders accidentally signal when they withhold information
  • Why survival mode keeps you from being bold, strategic, and generous
