The Team Engagement Podcast – Season 6, Episode 468: Give Yourself Grace

In this episode, Shawn Richards welcomes Joseph Lujan, Founder of Reflective Resonance, for a conversation on leadership, self-awareness, and the importance of giving yourself grace.

Joseph shares insights from his book Reflective Resonance and introduces his “camp out method,” a framework focused on slowing down, being present, and developing deeper awareness. He explains how leaders can create psychologically safe environments by showing authentic presence, embracing vulnerability, and actively listening to those around them.

Shawn and Joseph explore the value of steady leadership and why growth comes from intentional reflection rather than constant reaction. Joseph emphasizes that leaders who practice self-awareness and emotional wellness are better equipped to support their teams and build trust.

The conversation also highlights the importance of giving yourself grace, especially in moments of challenge or uncertainty. Joseph reflects on his early experience as a probation officer and how it shaped his ability to connect with others, listen deeply, and lead with purpose.
