Not Wrong, Just Not Right Now
Leadership Ready Room (LRR) Chats 4/29/2026
There is a particular kind of tension that shows up when you’re trying to make sense of what deserves your time and energy.
Not because you do not care. Not because the thing in front of you is a bad idea. But because your life, as it actually exists right now, can only support so much.
That is where this week’s LRR Chats conversation went.
Tom and I spent time with the idea that something can still matter to you, still feel aligned, still spark energy in you, and yet not be the thing to push on in this season. That can be a hard truth to accept.
Especially for leaders who are used to carrying a lot.
Especially if part of your wiring says, if I care about it, I should be able to make it work. However, context always matters.
Time matters
Family matters
Money matters
Energy matters
And if you’re honest about those things, you may realize the issue is not that something is wrong.
It may just not be right…right now.
That realization can change the way you make decisions.
We sat down this week to talk about that tension, what it feels like, how we tend to misread it, and what it looks like to respond with a little more honesty and intention.
Watch the full episode here.
One question I keep sitting with:
What in your life still feels right, but not right for this season?
