Unfolded Maps: Discover Your Inner Landscape of Leadership

In this episode of the Leadership Vision Podcast, Dr. Linda and Brian Schubring explore one of the central ideas of their book Unfolded: the metaphor of maps. Our maps represent our inner landscapes—our lived experiences, values, and relationships—and they hold both the well-traveled roads of habit and the hidden folds where growth emerges.

Together, we discuss how reflection, not just action, can unlock meaning from our stories. We look at how origin stories shape leadership, why seasons of life matter, and how mentors and guides can help us read our maps with fresh eyes. Brian and Linda remind us that our maps are not something to hide but to honor—with dignity, compassion, and curiosity.

Whether you’re a leader navigating change or someone seeking personal clarity, this conversation invites you to pause and ask: What does your map look like, and what story is it telling about you?
