142. Your Wounds Are Not Your Fault, But Your Healing Is Your Responsibility with Raj Sisodia

What kind of world would we be living in if those in power weren’t leading from unhealed wounds?

Raj Sisodia, co-author of Healing Leaders Now, joins me on the Live Brave Podcast to explore the profound connection between personal healing and leadership impact. Whether we realize it or not, what we have not healed within ourselves shapes the way we lead, influence, decide, and connect.

Unresolved trauma does not stay private. It gets amplified.

Raj shares his deeply personal journey of what he calls his “year of conscious awakening,” a period that included silent retreats, spiritual journeys, coaching, and confronting buried wounds he didn’t even know were there. That inner work reshaped not only his life but his philosophy of leadership.

We explore why minimizing our wounds keeps us stuck, how unconscious patterns derail even the most senior leaders, and why healing is not self-indulgent; it is a leadership responsibility.
