Episode 51: Micro-Moment #8: Lead with Compassion and Curiosity

Welcome to Season 3, the Last Quarter Challenge. Think of it as a training plan for your confidence with weekly micro-moments that ladder up so you enter 2026 stronger than ever. This week's micro-moment is Lead with Compassion and Curiosity. The easiest thing to do when someone frustrates you is to judge. The hardest thing, and the one that builds confidence, is to stay curious. When you take a moment to ask what else might be true, you shift from reacting to reflecting, and you open the door to connection rather than conflict. Try it today. When frustration shows up, pause. Take a breath, assume there is more to the story, and stay open to what you may not see yet. Notice how differently you respond when you lead with compassion and curiosity instead of judgment. 00:00 Intro 00:38 Micro-Moment #8: Compassion and Curiosity 03:30 The Science of Leading with Compassion and Curiosity 06:45 Teams Perform Better with Compassion and Curiosity 07:31 Join the Challenge 09:39 How Lisa Practiced this Micro-Moment 13:54 Outro 15:28 Disclaimer Connect With Us So You Never Miss a Moment of Inspiration: Visit Our Website Get Our Best-Selling Book in Paperback Follow Gravitas on Instagram Follow Lisa on Instagram Connect with Lisa on LinkedIn Follow Gravitas on TikTok Follow Gravitas on Substack Suggestions or Questions?
