The Slowest Person in the Room (Not What You Think)

Send a text

There is a question nobody in leadership is saying out loud right now: What if the thing that makes me valuable is the thing the machine does not need? In this episode, Lisa names the quiet fear that leaders, researchers, clinicians, and anyone in a people-centered profession are carrying — that empathy, presence, and trust-building are becoming obsolete in a world obsessed with speed and AI. She introduces what she calls the slow gifts — listening, presence, trust, and discernment — and makes the case that these are not inefficiencies to be optimized away. They are the whole point. If you have been measuring your worth by your output, this episode is your permission to stop racing and start returning to the thing no machine can replicate: you.

Soul to Soul with Dr. Lisa Carter-Bawa is a podcast for anyone who is in the middle of becoming — doing the inner work, asking the harder questions, and learning to live from the inside out.
