IntaConnect Consulting

Does the way I hold space for teams really matter? 🌿

A few weeks ago, doubt popped up - quiet, fleeting, but insistent.
I felt a little nuts sharing this, but I suspect many of you who’ve gone out on your own have felt the same.

Why not choose something safer? More predictable? More familiar?

What I do is unfamiliar here.
It’s scary: I ask leaders to trust me with their teams - their most important resource - through a process whose benefits aren’t always obvious. I’m asking them to step into a space that’s experiential, not purely intellectual.

Grateful to be on the Regenerators year-long Leadership journey, I asked myself instead:

"What is this moment trying to refine in me?"

Sensing. Adapting. Responding.

And I was reminded of my purpose of creating IntaConnect:
to create environments where real connection can return.

Work that doesn’t chase trends, it comes from lived experience, purpose, and the way I see people.
I can’t un-know that 🌿

I was humbled by this message from someone I recently connected with:
“Paula embodies deep presence and heart-centered connection. The conversation felt deeply nourishing and inspiring. Her work in leadership development is so important - I highly recommend exploring it with her.”

As we shift into a reflective time of the year, I’d love to hear from you:
Have you ever felt doubt when following your own path? How did you navigate it?
