After the Map: Grief, Regeneration, and a New Way to Lead | Leadership & Consciousness

What does leadership look like when the old maps stop working — and the social contracts that guided your career have dissolved?

In this second conversation with JJ Vega, leadership coach and founder of Art of Unfolding, Dave Schoof goes deeper into the territory most leadership development avoids: grief as a necessary passage, natural cycles as an organizational practice, and the embodied awareness that makes a genuinely different kind of leadership possible. Drawing on William Bridges' transition model and their shared background in somatic and consciousness-informed coaching, Dave and JJ explore what it actually takes to lead well through endings — not just survive them.

In this episode:

Grief as a leadership skill — why it belongs in the room
The neutral zone: what lives between endings and new beginnings
Resilience vs. permeability — replacing the wall with a membrane
Regenerative leadership: honoring fallow seasons, natural cycles, and rest
Embodied awareness as the foundational leadership practice
Rewilding the human being — and the organizations we lead

Guest: JJ Vega is a leadership coach working at the intersection of the inner world and organizational impact. Together, we cover emergence as a leadership practice, somatic intelligence, edge walkers, the disintegrating success template, and whether the Hero's Journey needs a postmodern update.
