S5E9: Empowering Introverted Leaders: The Transformative Power of Boundaries with Sharissa Sebastian-Deppen

  • サマリー

  • Summary (00:01) Empowering Introverted Leaders Through Boundaries This chapter of the Overcome to Become podcast introduces Sharissa Sebastian-Deppen, CEO of Leadership Mastery Alliance, who specializes in empowering introverted women in corporate leadership. Together, we explore how to establish and maintain boundaries to combat burnout and enhance focus. Sharissa shares her journey from software engineering to technology leadership and eventually to coaching, motivated by her own experience with burnout and a desire for change. She highlights the pivotal role of faith and serendipitous encounters that guided her toward a career in coaching. As a Myers-Briggs certified practitioner with over 15 years of corporate leadership experience, Sharissa emphasizes the importance of leveraging personal strengths and setting boundaries to maintain a healthy mindset and thrive in leadership roles. (09:23) Setting Healthy Boundaries for Self-Care This chapter focuses on the importance of understanding and establishing healthy boundaries, especially for those who grew up perceiving boundaries as negative or unhelpful. We explore how redefining boundaries as beneficial for both oneself and others can transform relationships and personal well-being. By aligning decisions with personal values and approaching conversations with mindfulness, it's possible to maintain relationships while respecting personal limits. The discussion highlights the significance of proactive decision-making and the necessity of taking care of oneself to avoid stress and resentment. By doing so, individuals can show up as their best selves, ready to serve and support others effectively. (22:00) Personal and Professional Boundaries This chapter explores the parallels between coaching in a corporate setting and effective parenting, focusing on setting boundaries and achieving alignment in communication. We discuss the importance of understanding the end goal in both professional and personal environments, and how aligning on expectations can ease difficult conversations. Emphasizing the emotional burden that often arises more intensely at home, we highlight how mastering emotional regulation and boundary-setting in personal life can translate to more effective interactions in the workplace. By addressing these challenges at home, where emotional triggers and lack of sleep are common, we suggest that individuals can enhance their professional demeanor. Additionally, the conversation touches on the dynamics of being an ambivert, balancing the need for extroversion at work with the necessity for introversion at home, and the significance of role modeling effective communication and emotional awareness for loved ones. (28:24) Maintaining Consistent Communication of Boundaries This chapter focuses on the importance of setting and maintaining boundaries in both professional and personal settings. We explore how effective communication and consistency are key in upholding these boundaries, preventing confusion and frustration for both ourselves and others. By establishing clear priorities, we can better filter requests and ensure our time is spent on what truly matters. The conversation draws parallels between work scenarios and parenting, highlighting the necessity of teaching others how to treat us through consistent boundary enforcement. We also discuss the emotional toll of not holding firm on boundaries, noting how it can lead to stress and frustration when decisions are made out of pressure rather than genuine willingness. Lastly, we acknowledge that boundaries may need to adapt over time depending on life circumstances, emphasizing the importance of regularly reassessing their relevance and effectiveness. (34:00) Navigating Boundary Setting and People Pleasing This chapter addresses how to effectively communicate boundaries when faced with an overwhelming workload. I explore strategies to maintain balance, such as informing others that while a task may be familiar, current priorities prevent its immediate completion. Emphasizing the importance of not committing to future dates without a clear view of upcoming obligations, I suggest revisiting the task at a later time to allow both parties to reassess priorities. Language plays a critical role in boundary-setting, especially for introverted leaders who may feel pressured to make instant decisions. I encourage allowing time for internal processing and advise seeking permission to respond at a later time, thus avoiding hasty commitments and reducing stress. The discussion transitions into the topic of people-pleasing, hinting at future exploration of transforming this mindset. (40:24) Navigating the Coaching Process This chapter focuses on the importance of directing energy towards what we can control and the significance of setting healthy boundaries in relationships. I discuss how chasing after people and trying to please everyone can drain energy and lead to stress, emphasizing that people may ...
