Embrace change. Lean into discomfort. Leave your comfort zone. It sounds wise until you are the one in a decision that could reshape your business or life, and it feels like pressure dressed as inspiration.Dr. Khutso Madubanya joins Sana to push back on that advice, arguing you cannot embrace what still hurts, and sharing her PIVOT method for moving through change with self-compassion, not force.About the Guest:Dr. Khutso Madubanya is a change strategist, speaker, and former senior economist and professor. Through her Dance With Change philosophy and PIVOT method, she helps people and organizations move through uncertainty.Key Takeaways:"Embrace change" is a cliche; you cannot embrace what still hurts, so understanding comes first.Pause before reacting. Feel what arises so the body settles and better decisions become possible.Identity is like clothing.
