Jason and Katie Schroeder sit down for a candid conversation about divine and wounded feminine and masculine traits, and how those patterns show up at home, on the jobsite, and everywhere in between. Katie walks through a chart she's been studying in her coaching program, and they map it onto leadership in construction, where the controlling, aggressive, withdrawn superintendent stereotype has done real damage. The second half turns into a real life example about misplaced keys and a locked bedroom door, and how the stories we tell ourselves about other people's behavior shape our reaction far more than what actually happened.

What you'll learn in this episode:

• The contrast between divine and wounded feminine traits and what each looks like in practice

• The contrast between divine and wounded masculine traits, including the controlling and aggressive super stereotype

• Why most "bad" behavior on a project comes from a wounded place, not a malicious one

• How the stories we tell ourselves about other people drive most of our emotional reactions

• Why showing up from your empowered self, not your wounded self, is the only place real leadership lives

If everyone is doing their best, the question becomes whether you're willing to lead from compassion when their best looks nothing like yours.
