Uncovering the Barriers to Forgiveness in the Workplace with Betsy Jordyn

In this episode, I had the pleasure of speaking with Betsy Jordyn, a brand positioning strategist who helps consultants and coaches clarify their messaging. Betsy's mission resonates deeply with me - empowering professionals to expand their positive impact. Drawing from over 30 years as an organizational consultant, Betsy witnessed firsthand the toxic cultures and unethical practices that can arise. She understands the toll of workplace betrayal, burnout and existential crises on passionate individuals striving to make a difference. "I think a lot of it comes from unresolved issues… like what got you into entrepreneurship." During our discussion, Betsy unpacked the unresolved issues that often propel people into entrepreneurship. She emphasized the need to address these deep-rooted matters through a process of acceptance and forgiveness in order to truly move forward. Together, we explored the insidious nature of toxic positivity - the pressure to always remain upbeat and deny difficult emotions. Betsy wisely advocated for acknowledging how we feel, setting boundaries, and disengaging from environments that don't respect our humanity. The key takeaway is that personal, professional and spiritual growth intertwine. By doing the work of forgiveness and healing past hurts, we build a solid foundation for success across all life arenas. This conversation holds particular relevance for high-achievers venturing into consulting or coaching. It provides a compassionate roadmap for the challenges and opportunities that arise.
