MY LIFE — THE BLUE CRISIS
This is a link to the ‘Principles’ tutorial video - ‘My Life - An Introduction.’
Alongside the Principes video, I have included the ‘Activation Narrative’ that is part of this session in the self-guided workbooks. The stories I tell aren’t comfortable, nor are they trauma porn. They are designed to elicit a specific response from the reader, tied to the topic our clients are working on in this session.
NAVIGATING INSTINCTIVE CRISIS
We build towering monuments to our success while blithely ignoring the places that give that success meaning.
INTRODUCTION — PRACTICED AWARENESS IN LIFE
You've built something consequential. Now the question is: can you protect it?
Most leaders plateau not from lack of talent or tenacity, but from unmanaged interior crises. The kind that builds slowly, invisibly—until one decision detonates everything you've constructed—the midlife implosion. The marriage ended because you stopped seeing it. The health collapse that nobody predicted but everyone saw coming.
This program maps the interior world where those crises originate—and teaches you to navigate them before they shipwreck your life. This isn't about building a meaningful life. It's about understanding why your life already has the meaning it does—and recognizing the moment that meaning starts to shift. Most leaders miss that moment. They realize too late that they've been living someone else's definition of success. By then, the correction is catastrophic.
You're about to learn to see it early. Across five sessions, you'll map four subconscious regions that determine what you consider meaningful:
Mapping Meaning — Identity · Energy · Legacy · Aspiration
These aren't theoretical concepts. They're biographical facts—built into your subconscious through decades of experience. You've already prioritized them. The question is whether you're aware of that prioritization, or whether it's running you blind. The videos accompanying this workbook bring that awareness to the surface. They replicate the stimulus-and-reflection rhythm of our live programs, allowing you to experience the patterns before you can name them. This isn't training. It's an excavation. The outcome isn't knowledge—it's the ability to navigate a crisis before it forces your hand.
What you're building: A map of your interior world. The ability to see a crisis forming before it becomes catastrophic. The discipline to navigate your own meaning-making map without losing yourself."
In the next post, we'll explore the introduction to the paradox of Extrinsic/Intrinsic conflict in My Culture.
THIS IS NOT TRAINING. IT'S CALIBRATION.
