  • Episode 29: Leading Healthy Teams
    Nov 16 2025

    Much has been written about and researched regarding effective leadership. The reality is, however, that effective leadership is more about each member of the team and how they impact the whole. Healthy leadership prioritizes a foundation of trust, proactively navigates conflict, encourages commitment and accountability, and utilizes tools to empower and mobilize action, creativity, and curiosity. Affinity Consultations enjoys opportunities to help leadership, in both large and small organizations, solidify what is great to become even greater, and improve areas of weakness by viewing them as opportunities for growth and strength.

  • Episode 28: Fear is the Little Death…
    Nov 9 2025

    Fear often gets a bad rap as a toxic and negative emotion that serves little purpose. While it is true that fear can be corrosive when unprocessed and unchecked, it can also serve as a powerful motivator for facing challenges, growing confidence, and rewiring the nervous system. We investigate how fear can hijack each type of personality, using Process Communication Model as a framework, as well as healthy ways to meet our psychological needs and turn fear into potential for self-actualization.
