Recovering from trauma, finding self-acceptance, and leading with compassion with Rosie Yeung, Founder of Changing Lenses and Certified Trauma Recovery Coach (Ep. 152)

Are you wondering how to navigate the complexities of cultural identity, personal and systemic challenges, and trauma?  In this episode with Rosie Yeung, Founder of Changing Lenses and the Un-Executive Coaching Methond and a Certified Trauma Recovery Coach, we discuss the challenges that marginalized communities face and how this plays out in mental health and workplace dynamics.  We do a deep dive into: 

• The importance of understanding trauma and its impact on behavior and performance. 
• The critical need for self-compassion, self-validation, and self-acceptance.
• How “executive presence” is often defined by outdated standards.
• Why cultural identity plays a significant role in personal and professional experiences.
• How trauma can be intergenerational and deeply rooted in family history.
• Why mental health stigma persists, especially in immigrant communities, and what you can do to overcome these barriers.
• What to do when you face racist behaviors.
• How “Unexecutive Coaching” focuses on uncovering and recovering from trauma.
• Why systemic discrimination affects perceptions of performance and capability.
