?
Chapter 3:? Strengthening Inner Leadership:? Lessons Learned the Hard Way by Karen Kimsey-Sward
“Giving ourselves grace is the biggest gift we can give.”
?
“I have focused on my inner leadership and confidence as well as strengthening my “outer leadership” and recognizing that it is critical to work on both to be a genuine leader (and person).”
?
“I was so hyper-focused on accomplishments and achieving that I did not take the time to focus on myself to better understand who I was and what was important to me.”
?
Chapter 4:? An Equation for Personal Empowerment:? Accept Accountability – Decide -- Do by Catherine McNeil
“Had I not been on a journey to become a better me, that [not-for-profit] environment would have gotten the best of me.”
?
“The fight for funding and other peoples’ lives is extremely difficult when your own basic needs aren’t being met.”
?
Chapter 5:? Six Steps to Connecting with Folks:? Having Courageous and Crucial Conversations by Gloria Cotton (Yep.? That’s me!)
“One of the most dangerous things about working with others is thinking that everything we know or have learned about them is all there is to know and learn.”
?
“Can I connect with the other person’s experience whether I’ve had a similar experience or not?? Do I want to?? NOTE:? This is what empathy is about, y’all!”
?
