It’s been…a lot lately, professional curve-balls blurring the line between “I’ve got this” and “Who even let me in the room?”

If your team is underperforming, it’s not JUST their failure.
It’s yours.
Great leaders don’t hoard wins and deflect losses.
They own EVERYTHING that shapes their teams outcomes.
Good and Bad.
Disagree? Let’s talk.
See it differently? I’m listening.

They say...
Don’t dim your light.
Don’t shrink yourself.
But what does that really mean?
👉 Stop contorting yourself to make others comfy.
👉 Stop squeezing your brilliance into someone else’s box.
Some folks aren't ready for ALL of you.
And that's ok...✨ Let ’em choke on your brilliance. ✨

Lately, stress has been high and somehow, my dog just knows.
He hovers close. Nudges my hand. Reminds me to breathe, release, reset.
Especially if treats and belly rubs are involved. 🐶💛
Sometimes the best kind of leadership is quiet, furry, and full of empathy.

The sun doesn’t grieve yesterday. It doesn’t mourn the clouds. It RISES. ☀️ And so do you.
Missed deadlines? Mistakes? Doubts? They aren’t setbacks—they’re stepping stones.
Extend grace to yourself. Rise. Shine. Own your journey.
