In this episode of the Re-MIND Podcast, hosts David Masterton and Dr. Ashleigh Moreland dive into the transformative role of emotional intelligence in leadership. Often, leaders are held back not by their technical skills but by unprocessed emotions such as shame, fear, and anger. These hidden emotional triggers can subtly sabotage decision-making, team dynamics, and overall business growth.

Dr. Ashleigh explains how understanding and addressing these emotional roadblocks can lead to healthier leadership and stronger, more connected teams. From people-pleasing tendencies rooted in shame to authoritarian styles driven by fear, we explore how these behaviours manifest in leadership and what happens when they are healed.

We also discuss the vibrational frequency of emotions - from low-frequency emotions like shame and fear to high-frequency states of love and enlightenment - and how they impact leadership. Discover the key to leading with empathy, emotional intelligence, and a long-term vision that inspires people to follow, not out of fear or compliance, but out of trust and respect.

Tune in to learn practical strategies for recognising your emotional triggers and turning them into strengths, making you a more effective and empowered leader.

In this episode of the Re-MIND Podcast, Dr. Ashleigh Moreland and co-host David Masterton dive deep into one of the most common questions we face when emotions run high: "Am I overreacting, or is this situation truly toxic?" Join us as we explore the fine line between being triggered by our own wounds and recognizing genuinely harmful, or "acid," behaviours from others. We’ll break down how to distinguish between reactions rooted in past trauma and those sparked by toxic actions like gaslighting, manipulation, and emotional blackmail. We’ll also discuss the importance of self-responsibility without falling into victim-blaming and share practical ways to set healthy boundaries when faced with controlling, neglectful, or abusive behaviours. By the end of this episode, you'll learn how to tell whether you're being "too sensitive" or if it's time to take a stand and protect your well-being. Whether you’re navigating difficult relationships or simply trying to understand your emotional triggers, this episode offers valuable insights into building resilience and responding rather than reacting.
