OM DENNE EPISODE
What does it mean to commit to transformation when we can't know exactly how to get there? In the second conversation of Lead Embodied: Wisdom for Leading Through Uncertainty, Rhodes Perry sits down with Casey Tonnelly, queer, neurodiverse, non-binary facilitator, educator, and author of Striving for Antiracism, to explore what lifelong transformation asks of us when certainty isn't possible. Drawing from their deeply personal and candid book, Casey shares what they've learned about confronting inherited conditioning, moving beyond binary thinking, staying present with discomfort, and practicing accountability when we inevitably get things wrong. Together, Rhodes and Casey explore how these lessons can help leaders cultivate greater agency, curiosity, and capacity in moments of uncertainty. Why Commitment Belongs in Leadership Transformation doesn't require certainty. It requires a willingness to stay engaged, remain open to learning, and keep choosing what matters. In this conversation, we explore how:
- Striving Creates Space for Growth. Antiracism is not a destination we arrive at, but an ongoing practice of reflection, learning, and transformation.
- Discomfort Can Become a Teacher. Fear, shame, guilt, and grief can make us want to retreat. Staying present with these experiences can create more room for awareness and choice.
- Accountability Builds Trust. Getting it wrong is inevitable. Learning how to acknowledge harm, make meaningful amends, and keep going is part of building more authentic relationships.
- Commitment Without Certainty. How do we remain committed to meaningful change when we can't guarantee that we'll always know the right thing to do?

Many leaders today are experiencing "Quiet Cracking," a state of Burnout 2.0 where we are expected to remain high-functioning while navigating empathy fatigue and physical exhaustion. The expectation is to "power through," but this move erodes our creative vision and ability to connect with others.…
Most leaders don't need another strategy, another 10-step checklist, or another theoretical framework to study. What they need is the ability to embody what they have already learned about leadership to have more agency to respond to challenges when the stakes are high. In this episode, we move bey…
Most leaders are carrying a weight they weren't meant to hold alone. For some of us, we've been conditioned to believe that leadership means being overly responsible—carrying the team, the culture, and the bottom line until we are bent under the pressure. In this episode, we flip the mirror. Instea…
Most leaders are carrying an energetic weight they were never meant to hold alone. In our current professional climate, those committed to equity and belonging face a quiet but painful trend: being hushed—subtly or overtly signaled to continue their transformative work with less organizational supp…
