Post-Webinar Reflections: Rising Through Faith and Values

We are grateful to everyone who joined us for our?How We Rise?webinar, featuring an insightful conversation with Irene K. , founder and CEO of Lamik Leasing Limited, on embracing faith and values to break barriers and navigate personal and professional growth. Guided by our engaging moderator, Dottie Achieng, Irene’s story left us with many powerful takeaways that promise to stay with us on our journeys.

Highlights from Irene’s Story:

With unguarded honesty, Irene opened up about her journey, from confronting the limiting labels of childhood to rising into her unique calling as a leader and entrepreneur. As a woman who has learned resilience from both painful experiences and strong faith, Irene illustrated how negative experiences can be transformed into fuel for growth and self-acceptance. Her story reminded us that when our identities are shaped by a higher purpose, we gain a well of strength to face life’s biggest challenges.

In recounting her formative years, Irene spoke about the labels others imposed on her as a child, which she carried for years. But with time and self-reflection, she chose to see herself through her own eyes, not those of others. This decision allowed her to shed any residual negativity, helping her understand her value as God sees it. “Who I am,” she explained, “is rooted in faith, not in the limitations others set on me.” It was a powerful reminder that in the face of life’s pressures, we must hold onto our own truth.

Key Takeaways:

The wisdom Irene shared went beyond her story, offering universal lessons that can guide us all:

·???????? Define Yourself: Irene’s story underscores the importance of self-definition. She encouraged each of us to examine the labels or limiting beliefs we might be holding onto and to replace them with self-affirming truths.

·???????? Faith as a Guiding Principle: Throughout her life, Irene has turned to faith for grounding. In moments of uncertainty or adversity, her faith reminded her of her worth and purpose, becoming a source of resilience. She urged us to anchor ourselves spiritually to overcome life’s challenges.

·???????? Independent Validation: Embracing her independence, Irene chose not to seek constant external validation. Instead, she encouraged us to live for an “audience of one,” finding fulfillment in alignment with our purpose rather than in external opinions or approval.

·???????? Integrity in Career Choices: Irene recounted her journey to entrepreneurship and emphasized the role integrity has played in her career. She noted that although others may take shortcuts, she has always held her values as non-negotiable. This dedication has allowed her to build a reputation of trust and authenticity in her field.

·???????? Build a Supportive Network: Throughout her journey, Irene was intentional about surrounding herself with positive influences who would uplift and inspire her. She encouraged us all to be selective in our associations, recognizing that our growth is often influenced by the company we keep.

·???????? Continuous Learning and Growth: Finally, Irene’s passion for growth has been fueled by a lifelong love of learning. She reminded us that the willingness to learn is essential to personal and professional evolution and urged us to never shy away from challenges that stretch us.

Through her words, Irene inspired each of us to seek out our own strength and purpose. Her journey showed that by relying on faith, self-worth, and values, we can rise above life’s challenges, no matter the obstacles.

Thank you again for being part of this enriching experience. We hope Irene’s story will stay with you as you continue your journey, fortified with resilience, faith, and a commitment to your own unique path.
