Well Worth Knowing

As a leader, you probably live and breathe key performance indicators. You track them, discuss them in meetings, and measure your success by them. They’re your organizational heartbeat — the numbers that show whether your team, department, or company is thriving. But have you ever stopped to consider your own? Not your business KPIs, but your Personal Key Performance Indicators  — your P-KPIs . Most leaders can tell you their quarterly targets without glancing at a spreadshee

Most busy women say they want to be healthier, but few ever pause long enough to ask what that actually means. “Healthier” becomes a placeholder for a vague future version of themselves – someone with more energy, better habits, fewer aches, and a wholesome relationship with food, movement, and stress. It sounds reasonable and attainable, yet it often remains just out of reach, not because the desire is weak, but because the definition is never made concrete. Without clarity,

As the year winds down, it’s easy for leaders to get caught up in a whirlwind of tasks—closing out projects, preparing budgets, and setting goals for the next year. Amid this hustle, one critical practice often gets overlooked: taking a pause. Yet, intentional breaks are not just a luxury—they’re a strategic necessity for leaders to refocus energy, boost creativity, and enter the new year with clarity and purpose. Why Pausing Matters for Leaders Taking a pause or break is ess

The concept of leadership is undergoing a significant transformation. Traditional leadership models, which often emphasized relentless drive and constant availability, are being replaced by approaches that prioritize well-being and sustainability. This shift is not just a trend but a necessity for future-proofing leadership in an increasingly complex and demanding world. The Changing Landscape of Leadership The modern workplace is characterized by constant change, technologic

For high-achieving women, ambition isn’t just a career driver—it’s woven into identity. The desire to excel, break barriers, and create a lasting impact fuels many women to push harder, work longer, and sacrifice more. But in a world that often equates success with nonstop productivity, the relentless pursuit of excellence comes at a price. The myth of “having it all” has become both a motivating force and an unrealistic standard, leaving many women feeling stretched too thin

For years, we’ve been chasing an elusive goal: work-life balance. The traditional definition suggests that work and life exist on opposite ends of a scale, and if we can just divide our time correctly, we’ll achieve perfect equilibrium. But in today’s fast-paced, always-connected world, that model no longer serves us. It’s time to redefine what balance really means and find a new approach that aligns with how we actually live and work. The pressure to achieve work-life balanc

When we talk about imposter syndrome, we often picture a professional sitting in a meeting, nodding along while secretly thinking, “Any minute now, they’re going to realize I don’t belong here.”  It’s the anxious whisper that tells you you’re underqualified, underprepared, and somehow only got your role by luck or accident. That’s the familiar version of imposter syndrome. And if you Google the term, you’ll find pages of advice built around this idea: gain more experience, se

I grew up in a faith tradition where struggle was sacred. Where self-sacrifice was the mark of a good woman, and suffering—quietly and with grace—was seen as a rite of passage. Maybe you did, too. We were taught to serve. To give. To carry. To endure. And to do it all with a smile, because, as we were told, “God gives His toughest battles to His strongest soldiers.” That phrase stayed with me. For years, it shaped how I showed up in life and leadership. I thought the heavines

We’ve been taught to choose. To be well or to be successful. To rest or to rise. To lead with heart or to lead with results. This conditioning runs deep. It’s woven into the stories we’re told about ambition, into the metrics we use to measure worth, and into the silent expectations that shape our days. Somewhere along the way, we internalized the belief that thriving personally and excelling professionally are incompatible pursuits – that one must be sacrificed at the altar

“Sorry, but can I ask a question?” “Sorry if this is a dumb idea, but…” “Sorry to bother you…” Sound familiar? If you’re a woman, chances are you’ve said one of these phrases, or all of them, at some point. And if you’re anything like me, once you start noticing it, you can’t unhear it . Women apologize for everything . We say sorry before we ask a question, before we take up space, before we express an opinion. We apologize when we need clarification, when we’re running two
