Sometimes the issue isn’t that your vision is wrong. It may be that something in the way you’re carrying, pacing, or approaching the work needs attention.

In this episode, Sheila talks about the tension that can show up in the middle of a season and why the answer isn’t always to push harder or start over. Sometimes what you need is a reset: space to notice what’s shifted, release what no longer fits, and realign with what matters most.

IN THIS EPISODE

• Why tension between vision and reality can be part of growth
• The difference between a restart and a reset
• How to recognize and honor a season of transition
• Why pushing through is not always the wisest response
• How isolation can affect the way you carry leadership
