She speaks candidly about the discomfort of leadership, learning to sit with uncertainty, and moving beyond blame, avoidance, and perfectionism toward curiosity, reflection, and responsibility.\n\nThe conversation explores perspective taking across roles, balancing competing priorities, living in the gray space of leadership decisions, and why rupture and repair matter more than getting things right the first time. Courtney also discusses the importance of staying connected to frontline work, building trust through honest communication, and developing the professional skills that are often missing from formal training.\n\nA grounded and insightful episode for leaders, clinicians, and operators navigating growth, feedback, and the realities of leading people with integrity in complex environments.\n\n#theflex #leadershipdevelopment #behavioralhealth #clinicdirector #authenticleadership #peoplefirst #professionaldevelopment\n\nI hope you enjoy this episode!\nGive it a like, share, and subscribe to not miss the content coming your way weekly.\n- Scott and The Flex podcast team\nConnect with Scott Herbst on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/scottherbst/\nVisit The Flex website here: https://theflexpodcast.com/\nListen to The Flex on these podcast platforms:\nSpotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/4hiMhQXqiopx65WclM5xar\nApple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-flex/id1815706197\nAmazon Podcasts: https://music.amazon.com/podcasts/82479a2b-41d3-48fe-bc40-94882d1a07f2/the-flex\n#TheFlexPodcast...","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/Jyw47hwAeg_V8SCB0Fln-4hIBlWQYRbk59Y-O9rdTyg/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS8xYmIw/ZTlhOTNhODhjMzgw/ZDk5YzUwZTFkNTAw/ZTg1Ny5wbmc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
