Un-Paradigmed
Welcome to Un-Paradigmed.
A quietly rebellious space for unraveling the rules we didn’t know we were living inside of and exploring what becomes possible when we notice and/or stop following them.
This podcast was formerly The Sequel to a PhD Podcast and still holds those past episodes to honor the evolution of the body of work. Moving forward, you’ll find something a little different: noticing and naming the structures we operate within, genuine curiosity and questions without clear answers, and a more spacious conversation about leadership, self-trust, and the cultural stories we’re ready to outgrow.
Podcast relaunch with new episodes coming soon!
Hosted by Shirley Markant, PhD — coach, thinker, paradigm-unraveler. Learn more at www.shirleymarkantcoaching.com.

Episode 14: When the Impact of Our Work Gets in the Way of Making Change
Welcome back to the podcast!
In this episode, I explore how thinking about the impact of our work can help guide our decision-making as well as hold us back when we're feeling nudged towards making changes. We talk about possible ways to consider impact beyond measurable outcomes that contribute to solving the world's big problems. We also talk about how releasing attachment to impact outcomes might be really important when exploring, playing/learning, and following your curiosity towards something new, and how maybe it's okay to let the potential impact become more obvious down the road a little bit. We are all impacting the world around us every day, regardless of the path we choose.
Thank you for listening!
