You’re Not a Bad Leader. You’re Dysregulated//Ep17 Healed To Lead w/ Kevin Overton-Hadnot

Описание: What if the problem isn’t your leadership skills…
What if it’s your nervous system?

In this episode of Healed to Lead with Kevin Overton-Hadnot, we’re unpacking Trauma-Informed Leadership through a clinical lens — not as a trend, but as a truth. Because leadership is not just strategy and vision. It’s regulation.

Trauma doesn’t just impact relationships — it impacts perception, decision-making, communication, and how safe people feel around you.

When the nervous system is in survival:

Perception narrows

Urgency replaces clarity

Reactivity replaces responsiveness

Control feels safer than collaboration

And most leaders don’t even realize it’s happening.

We explore:
✔️ What trauma actually is
✔️ How trauma affects decision-making
✔️ Why survival states prioritize speed over wisdom
✔️ What a regulated leader actually looks like
✔️ How safety changes everything — for you and the people you lead

Plus, I answer a listener question about journaling — how often I do it, whether you can “do it wrong,” and where to start if you feel stuck.

Because trauma-informed leadership doesn’t start in the boardroom.
It starts in private self-awareness.

If you’ve ever:

Felt reactive but didn’t know why

Struggled with control or avoidance

Confused urgency with importance

Wanted to lead differently but didn’t know how

This episode is for you.

You are not broken.
You may just be dysregulated.

And regulation is a skill.
