Apotheosis
Reach your peak.
The Apotheosis podcast shares insights, reflections, and practices from the world’s great traditions to help leaders solve complex problems — biweekly wisdom for impact leaders.
(In case you fire up an episode and hear me talking about the Changemakers' Field Guide, don't be alarmed, you're still in the right place. Did a bit of rebranding a little while back.)

Stages of development
Can you rise up to meet the challenge in front of you? If you feel “in over your head,” consider that a call to action. You have an opportunity to grow.
From the moment we’re born, we’re thrust into a path of non-stop growth. Every moment of our childhood is marked by major milestones: crawling, walking, speaking our first words… in a blink, we’re all grown up.
As adults, we reach a few big turning points, like getting our first real job, buying a home, or getting married. But generally speaking, we often feel like we’re done – we made it to adulthood. We’re grown up.
Thinking we’re done growing is a mistake. As Robert Kegan and other researchers point out, we can advance through several stages of adult development well into our lives.
Taking on experiences that stretch our capabilities and challenge our worldviews can help us unlock greater potential at higher stages of growth.
