What do you do when disruption doesn’t just change your plans, but shakes your sense of who you are?

In this episode, Dr. Leonie H. Mattison invites you into an honest, human conversation about those moments when life tilts—sharing her own experiences as she walks through this work with you, not above you. As you listen, you’ll begin to see your own questions, fears, and hopes reflected in her story, so you don’t feel like you’re carrying this season alone.

Together, you’ll explore the first stitch in the T.H.R.E.A.D. System™: Think Deeply and why your brain and body react the way they do under pressure. Dr. Lee gently guides you through a “listening tour with your soul,” with prompts to:

• Name the season you’re really in

• Acknowledge where this disruption is touching your life

• Separate what happened from what you’re afraid it means about you

• Begin to describe the leader you’re becoming on the other side of this

If you’re navigating loss, transition, illness, or quiet identity shifts and you’ve wondered, “Who am I now, and how do I move forward?” this episode will help you slow down, feel seen, and think deeply about your life from a place of compassion and clarity.

If this episode speaks to you, like it, leave a review, follow/subscribe, and share it with someone else who’s walking through disruption and needs to know they’re not alone.

If your life has been quietly turned upside down, or you’re in a season that feels nothing like what you prayed for, this episode is for you.

Episode 5 kicks off a seven-part transformation journey called “Weaving Your Life Back Together.” We start here on purpose. Before you can rebuild a disrupted life, reset your leadership, or step into your next assignment, you have to gently name what happened and tell yourself the truth about how it has impacted your body, your mind, your spirit, and your work.

In this heart-opening first episode, Dr. Lee shares her own story navigating the “gremlins” of fear, shame, and blame that showed up after disruption and how ancestral resilience and time in nature helped her stand back up, transform chaos into clarity, and turn disruption into direction.

In this episode you are invited to:

• Name Your Disruption with honesty and compassion, putting real language to what you’re walking through.

• Notice where this disruption is living in your body, emotions, and thoughts, instead of pushing past your own nervous system.

• Remember the resilience of your ancestors and the wisdom of nature so you do not confuse being knocked down with being defeated.

• Choose one specific situation to carry with you through the full seven-part T.H.R.E.A.D. journey, so your healing and leadership work has a clear, grounded focus.

If you’re a leader aspiring, emerging or seasoned who looks “put together” on the outside but knows something inside needs to be rewoven, this is your invitation to breathe, be honest, and begin again… on purpose.
