If you’ve ever asked yourself, “How do I stop feeling like life is happening to me?” — this episode is for you.
In today’s conversation, Krista sits down with executive coach Jonathan Basker of the Conscious Leadership Group to explore what it really means to take 100% responsibility for your life — especially when the temptation to collapse into blame, resentment, or burnout feels irresistible.
Jonathan is known for helping leaders drop the victim mindset and step into grounded, heart-led presence. Before becoming a coach, he led strategy inside high-growth startups like Etsy and Betaworks, learning firsthand that surface-level leadership doesn’t survive real storms. But his insights don’t just come from boardrooms — they come from years of inner work, facing his own patterns, and choosing self-acceptance over self-attack.
Together, Krista and Jonathan unpack:
How to recognize when you’re stuck in victimhood — and shift into self-ownership
Why awareness is the first step to transformation (and why most people skip it)
The subtle ways we self-sabotage when trying to “fix” ourselves
Why acceptance isn’t resignation — it’s the doorway to change
How to break free from repeating the same painful patterns
The role of love and self-compassion in real, lasting leadership
This conversation is for anyone ready to stop outsourcing their power, stop looping in the same old stories, and start leading — in work, in relationships, and in life — from the inside out.
