FACT: The world needs more leaders living in their feminine energy and businesses need more nurturing and protective female leadership 💖
How different would many corporate environments be with kind, gentle yet fiercely ambitious women building a safe culture for people to thrive. After all, we know this is what drives true innovation.
We are conditioned to believe that Barbie doesn’t belong in a boardroom, that we need to dress in power suits to be taken seriously and that we need to dull ourselves down, make ourselves smaller even to be accepted as serious in business.
For years I was fully in my masculine energy, believing that’s what it took to build a business from the ground up. Never asking for help, never stopping for a breather and never looking around me to enjoy the journey. I just lived for the future, for what I could achieve next. I was almost embarrassed that I loved pink, glitter and mini skirts because it didn’t fit with the ‘image’ of a 40 year old CEO.
Well today I fully embrace my Swarovski cryatal laptop case, my pink fluffy jumper and my blonde hair and I make no apologies. It doesn’t make me any less of a business leader, it makes me an authentic human, able to express myself in a healthy way.
So here’s to the rebels, the misfits, the round pegs in square holes… (love that ad!)
If you do one thing today, show up at work as your authentic self - you deserve it 🎉
