Leadership Starts Within: The Power of EQ
Emotional intelligence transforms good leaders into great.
Never limit your growth for fear of leaving others behind.
A warning I have for all my clients: As you transform and become successful, people will disappear from your life. Some will do so out of jealousy and envy, while others may have completed their role in your life.
Every person acts as a mirror, reflecting areas in which we need to grow emotionally and undergo transformation. In turn, we play the same role for them. Some individuals may have multiple "mirrors" to hold up, or we might resist personal growth, causing them to play a more significant role in our lives. These reflections offer lessons in self-confidence, self-love, self-belief, self-worth, and more. It is our responsibility to learn from these lessons and to appreciate the opportunity to change and develop.
Every situation presents us with a choice. If I choose not to embrace growth, I shouldn't force others into my resistance. The reverse is also true. Whether we choose to grow and change or not, different people bring different lessons. Some may be temporary reminders of our worth, while others provide opportunities for self-expansion.
Every day, it's essential to show love and appreciation to people for the role they play in helping us discover our true selves. Are you fully committed to transforming into your best self and acknowledging the invaluable role others have had in this journey?

You give, and give, and give… hoping that one day, it will be enough.
Somewhere along the way, you started believing that to love fully, you had to lose yourself.
Because somewhere along the way, we were taught that love means sacrificing ourselves.
How many times have you found yourself stuck in the same pattern, facing the same struggle, only with a new face or a different setting?
You were never broken. You were just waiting to remember who you are.
