Navigating complex corporate dynamics is no joke and often as women we tell ourselves that we should play small rather than risk backlash, consequences or judgment.

You can have the best of intentions when setting goals or making decisions but if you aren't aware of how you tend to sabotage those very intentions, then you will likely not get the outcomes you want.

Most people are unclear about what they are here to do and so many have given up on the notion of finding their calling or purpose (or perhaps never even had it). Hear this truth: YOU are DESTINED to do something remarkable with your life –it is what you are divinely designed to do. You are CHOSEN and EQUIPPED to make a specific impact in your sphere of influence. If you dare to believe that MORE is possible, that belief will carry you to the reality of what you most desire, as you take steps forward each day.

Success, especially in leadership and personal growth, requires commitment. It's not just about taking the step to join a course, program, or cohort; it's about committing to the journey, to the effort, and the belief in oneself. IT IS YOUR TIME to do what you were born to do.

Most of us are familiar with the term 'glass ceiling' - the unseen barrier hindering women from top corporate roles. Yet, there's a lesser-known but equally critical concept: the 'glass cliff'. This metaphor extends the challenge beyond just reaching leadership positions. It's about the precariousness that often accompanies these roles, especially for Black women and women of color. This results in a role fraught with unsustainable workloads, lack of support, and unrecognized efforts, leading to burnout and frustration. You can change that!

So many of us live lives smaller than we’re meant to or designed for because we do not have faith in who we are and WHOSE we are! And what gets in the way of that? F.E.A.R.

Part of transformation is letting go of the old. Another word for “letting go” is shedding—the old, the things that hold you back, old perspectives, old clothes that no longer fit, relationships past their due dates, roles that we’ve outgrown, old environments, etc. When do you know it is time to shed something? Read more to learn the signs.

Let us reflect a bit on that thing that often gets overlooked: our own well-being and personal growth. When we neglect our own health and happiness, it can have a significant impact on those around us too. With that in mind, I want you to ask yourself three simple questions.

Success, especially in leadership and personal growth, requires commitment. It's not just about taking the step to join a course, program, or cohort; it's about committing to the journey, to the effort, and the belief in oneself. Like the Gran Turismo journey, when clients work with me for at least six months, they are not just investing time and resources; they are embarking on a journey of transformation that makes that initial investment reap gains that could blow their minds!

Your strengths, talents, and expertise want to shine more brightly in this season of your life, because you have been called to lead in a purpose you are especially designed to fulfill. So aren’t you tired of kicking the “invest in my professional growth” can down the road? The time is NOW.

The cycles of life are part of many aspects of our lives, including our careers. The season of Autumn is all about receiving and celebrating our growth, achievements, and wins. But as a high achiever, how good are you at taking the time to savor your win? I pray my testimony about my business Elan Image Management inspires you to savor your successes more intentionally.

The pandemic helped us see and understand at a deeper level that without a sense of purpose, meaning and value, our work cannot fulfill us and make the impact we long for. I believe it’s time for all of us to take the reins of our careers and lives as we navigate uncertainty and pivots that are the new normal right now. If not now, when?

You are meant to rise, in your arena, in the way you are specially shaped to impact your sphere.

Consider how you want to end the year and how you want to position yourself for 2022.
