In this episode of The Flex, host Scott Herbst sits down with Courtney Murawski, Clinic Director at Lifespeed Behavioral Support Services, for a thoughtful and deeply practical conversation on leadership, responsibility, and growth in behavioral health.

Courtney shares her leadership journey from frontline therapist to BCBA to clinical director, reflecting on how each role expanded her perspective and reshaped how she approaches decision making, feedback, and accountability. She speaks candidly about the discomfort of leadership, learning to sit with uncertainty, and moving beyond blame, avoidance, and perfectionism toward curiosity, reflection, and responsibility.

The conversation explores perspective taking across roles, balancing competing priorities, living in the gray space of leadership decisions, and why rupture and repair matter more than getting things right the first time. Courtney also discusses the importance of staying connected to frontline work, building trust through honest communication, and developing the professional skills that are often missing from formal training.

A grounded and insightful episode for leaders, clinicians, and operators navigating growth, feedback, and the realities of leading people with integrity in complex environments.
