Day 392 - Joy from the Ages
As we approach the end of the work week, this week taught me so much.
I have met many new people this week and I am still reminiscing from yesterday’s conference and so many brilliant conversations.
The best takeaway from The Right Honourable Adrienne Clarkson, 26th Governor General of Canada was that having friends and colleagues from different age groups can significantly contribute to the development of our confidence.
Interacting with individuals who are older than us allows us to gain valuable insights and learn from their life experiences.
Their wisdom and guidance can offer us a broader perspective on various aspects of life, helping us navigate challenges with more confidence and resilience.
Having friends who are younger can provide us with a sense of mentorship and the opportunity to share our own knowledge and experiences, reinforcing our self-esteem.
By engaging with a diverse range of friends, we can expand our social skills, broaden our horizons, and ultimately build a stronger sense of self-assurance in our interactions with others.
She further taught me that leaning into my own imperfection, vulnerability and failure are all contributing factors to my success as a woman and heart-centered leader!
Retirement is being pushed out more and more. 65 was the age set by President Franklin D. Roosevelt in 1935. As the world continues to change and progress, modern elders are not necessarily retiring. There are so many modern elders starting businesses at age 65+!
I will be one of these people! I love what I do and decided I will live to be 100!
I am incredibly excited and proud of my book being published in September.
Writing the Heart-Centered Leadership Playbook has been enjoyable, challenging, frustrating and yet a deep tenacity within me to finish strong and proud!
I feel I am exactly where I should be.
That is success to me.
What’s in your playbook?
