La Locker Room Aux Folles

This week, we dive into Episode 9, "La Locker Room Aux Folles" and consider what it means to be human–the good, the bad, and the messy middle.

In this episode, Dimple and Jeff explore the themes of vulnerability, empathy, and courageous communication found in three key storylines. They reflect on how our words impact others and how often we minimize or ignore how our actions impact others until it becomes personal. They consider what it means to be whole and not have to compartmentalize ourselves, a key aspect of human-centered leadership. And, they dive deeper into the topic of seeing the humanity in others by remembering that we never know what other people are going through.

Join Dimple and Jeff for another fun and thought-provoking conversation about life, love, and leadership–Lasso style.
