Jen's soon-to-be college student has been "soiling the nest" and it's not unlike how some of us show up at work when we want to avoid certain types of tasks or decisions.

Key Takeaways:
1. Just as children assert independence, teams need space to grow and learn from their mistakes, which sometimes means leaders must let go of control.
2. Reflect on your leadership actions—are you creating a supportive environment, or might you be "soiling your own nest" through micromanagement or avoiding tough conversations?
3. Effective leadership involves not only guiding others but also being mindful of your own impact and allowing room for both personal and team growth.
