RISEUP: Voices From the Frontlines

TIL 6/40 False North Stars, When Values Go Wrong


Listen Later

🎙️ New Episode Announcement

Not every compass points to truth. Some leaders build entire movements

around false North Stars—visions rooted in ego, greed, domination, or
fear. And the results can be devastating.

In Episode 6, we tackle this difficult but necessary topic. How do

leaders discern between a true North Star that fuels integrity and healing, and
a false one that leads to exploitation or harm? We’ll examine historical
cautionary tales, modern examples, and the subtle ways leaders can lose sight
of their values without even realizing it.

Trauma-informed leadership gives us unique insight here. Leaders carrying

unexamined wounds may chase power instead of purpose, recognition instead of
responsibility. This episode helps us name those distortions—and more
importantly, offers tools to return to integrity when we realize our compass
has drifted.

If you’re serious about leading with impact, this is one you cannot

afford to miss. It may challenge you, it may unsettle you, but it will equip
you to recognize the difference between leadership that heals and leadership
that harms.
