Protection Patterns: Why High-Performing Leaders Struggle (And What To Do About It)

Protection Patterns: Why High-Performing Leaders Struggle (And What To Do About It)

Join Sharon Podobnik Peterson and Sandra Sarucia for a 45-minute webinar introducing the groundbreaking Protection Patterns™ framework that changes how leaders see themselves.

You'll learn:

  • Why high-performing leaders still struggle with defensiveness, procrastination, rumination and how to overcome them--for good;

  • Why character traits like perfectionist, people-pleaser, and workaholic aren't character traits at all—they're strategies your nervous system uses to keep you safe;

  • How to recognize your own protection patterns (and what they're protecting you from);

  • How seeing your patterns creates choice—so you can use them with dignity instead of being run by them.

You'll walk away with a framework that transforms shame into self-awareness, and a practice that helps you lead from choice instead of autopilot.

When: Thurs. April 2, 2026 @ 12:00 pm ET

Duration: 45 minutes

Who it's for: Leaders ready to stop judging themselves and start working with how they're wired, instead of against themselves.

This webinar is a preview of our Trauma-Informed Leadership program.

We look forward to seeing you there.

Sharon & Sandra
