The fortress vs cell metaphor really captures something I've struggled to articulate. The idea that staying emotonally present with discomfort is actualy strength rather than weakness shifts how I think about leadership. Sitting with the dragon instead of fighting or fleeing makes so much sense when you put it that way.
Yes, confrontation is the principle when we aim to overcome fears and looking for a real change. But for that we cannot simply be blank, we must fortify ourselves against what will appear to face us. Appreciate your kind feedback!
