First, From the Heart

We hear the inner voice that calls us to lead, that calls us to create new ways of doing and being. Or have we muted it? Can we act courageously in the most difficult circumstances, or does fear take charge? What fuels us to carry on, keep the fire burning, and do our part?

This week, a colleague in one of our training cohorts asked the group how they continue on their compassionate leadership journey when the impact of their efforts was slow, imperceptible in the larger scheme of things, or even not as intended. The whole cohort nodded in collective agreement. We shared more together about patience, persistence, practice, and baby steps.

We rise to tackle significant challenges and look for the external signs that tell us we are on the right path. However, the only checkpoint that truly matters is your inner trust meter. Am I aligned in my actions? Am I true to my values? Am I living on purpose? May compassion for yourself and others support you on the journey.
