Leaders struggle sometimes with the balance between support and compassion and accountability. Accounting doesn't mean you don't have compassion for the situation... it's actually quite the opposite. Check out these week's episode to learn more. 

In this episode, I discuss the impact of not addressing the situations that feel small with your employees, as well as, the responsibility we have as leaders to create a balance of growth and accountability. The morale and engagement of your employees can be drastically impacted by your choice to be complacent in your leadership and not actively engaged. If you are feeling stuck as a leader I challenge you to remember the reason you choose to be a leader and allow that to ignite the fire that will bring you back to your whole leadership self.

We have all felt the painful sting of life kicking us right in the face, and sometimes even kicking us when we are down. Our responsibilities are still there of course and they can't be ignored, especially our job/career. Showing up to that even when life is hard is one of the best choices you can make for yourself, and let it serve as a safe place where you can still make things happen for yourself in a positive way. Just because life wants to be a jerk doesn't mean that everything is bad or has to be. You get to choose your path and here is where empower you to choose just that. 

I will share the experiences I have had an how I have leveraged the 3 Laws of Emotional Strength to get through them. You won't want to miss this episode especially as we face continuous hate, and adversity after the wrath of the pandemic.

I share with you an 'ah ha' moment I had while watching Ted Lasso (amazing show, if you aren't watching it, you should!) Let's discuss how we play small and shy away from embracing our strength. "Imagine thinking you are not good enough, but the whole time you TOO GOOD!" Let's accept our awesomeness and go be badasses. 

If you find yourself judging more than celebrating you are doing life wrong. In this episode, I discuss ways to challenge your thoughts when you are judging others, and how to stop caring what they think about you. The only person's opinion of you that matters is your own. So let's mind our business shall we.
Challenge of the week: Today I want you to reflect on someone that really irks you when they judge either yourself or others and decide to take their power away. By not allowing them to live your mind or indulging in gossip or judgement with them, you are doing just that. 

Happy Monday Unicorns!
