Tuesday, 25 November, 2025
Most leaders quit right before growth clicks into place, simply because they don’t understand where they are in the process of change. In this episode, Jenn Whitmer unpacks the four stages of change every leader experiences when learning a new skill — from “I don’t even know what I don’t know” to “I can do this without thinking.” Drawing from Joyosity: How to Cultivate Intense Happiness in Work & Life (Even If Things Are What They Are), Jenn reveals why information isn’t transformation—and what it really takes to move from stuck to thriving. Here’s What’s in the Episode: 1:25 Why change feels uncomfortable—and how to make it easier. 3:10 The four stages of individual change. 5:45 Why “information ain’t transformation". 12:20 How repetition rewires your brain and builds new “muscle memory”. 15:30 How to know you’ve reached lasting change.
