À propos de cet audio

In this thought-provoking and relatable episode of Coaching From My Wheelchair, we explore how the infamous phrase “Let them eat cake”—or more accurately, brioche—serves as a metaphor for the emotional and psychological disconnect that can happen in leadership, relationships, and everyday life.

We unpack:

  • The historical backstory of the phrase and how it illustrates dangerous blind spots.
  • The difference between empathy and sympathy.
  • How Emotional Blind Spots Form in Leadership and Personal Relationships.
  • Real-life coaching examples—including a story about an executive whose team was silently drowning while he was throwing motivational “brioche” at them.
  • Coaching tools to help you, the listeners, recognize and overcome your own blind spots
  • I would also address some frequently asked questions about emotional energy, effectiveness, and whether empathy can be truly learned.

Whether you're leading a team, navigating tough conversations, or just trying to connect more with others, this episode is packed with insights and takeaways.
