This Isn't Just My Story
— It's an invitation to reflect on yours.
For years, I carried the words of a highly respected consultant who told me that if I thought more with my head and less with my heart, I could take my business to the next level faster. That lingered in my thoughts for many years until that special day when I made the most important decision of my career: to choose my heart first… No matter what.
I wanted to make a bigger difference with my skills and experience, but I worried about appearing too forward. The ideas kept coming in just the same, turning into a vision that kept me up at night, demanding to be acknowledged. I was pouring my all into my work, and despite the long hours, I had nothing to show for it. I knew in my heart there had to be a better way to help and live.
The ideas of change came and went, and like so many, I carried on, trying to keep up with the status quo of what society was dictating. That was until I reached a breaking point of total burnout. I hadn’t realized then, but this was the wake-up call I needed to change things. This was my opportunity to reflect on what was working and what wasn’t, so I could eventually achieve “Leading with my Heart and Living On Purpose.”
