How much of your life is being shaped by stories you never consciously chose?

In this episode of Live Fully. Lead Authentically., Kurt sits down with executive coach, author, and speaker Stephanie Peirolo to explore the deeper forces that influence the decisions we make every day. Together, they unpack why so many leaders get trapped in "right versus wrong" thinking, how family, culture, and organizational systems quietly shape our choices, and whyself-awareness begins with uncovering the narratives we've inherited. Stephanie also shares insights from her book, The Saint and the Drunk, offering a refreshing perspective on discernment, inner wisdom, and making decisions that align with who you truly are—not simply who you've been told to be. Whether you're navigating a major life transition, leading a team, or simply trying to understand yourself more deeply, thisconversation will invite you to slow down, question the stories you've accepted, and choose a path that is both authentic and sustainable.

What if the story you tell yourself about being judged is the very thing keeping you stuck? Kurt Bush and Chris Godfredsen unpack how leaders quietly give away their agency by letting imagined criticism, discomfort, or room dynamics dictate how they show up—and what it takes to lead with more freedom, integrity, and courage.

Kurt opens with a real leadership story about a tense meeting, a hurt conversation, and the work of choosing honesty over people-pleasing. From there, the conversation gets practical fast: when do your protective patterns actually help you, and when do they keep you from being fully present?
