Transcript

Find a quiet place where you can sit comfortably,

Close your eyes,

And take a deep breath in,

And slowly exhale.

Let your shoulders relax,

Releasing any tension from the day.

Feel the weight of your body grounding you to the earth,

Steady and strong.

Now imagine yourself standing at the edge of a vast open field,

The horizon stretching endlessly before you,

Full of possibilities.

This is the landscape of your leadership,

Your courage,

Your willingness to show up fully as yourself.

As you take a step forward into the field,

Feel the warmth of the sun on your face.

This light represents your inner strength,

The resilience that carries you through the challenges.

Each step that you take is a step toward leading with courage,

Even when uncertainty lingers.

Ahead of you,

There is a beautiful,

Sturdy tree.

Its roots dig deep into the earth,

Unwavering,

Just as your values anchor you in times of doubt.

Breathe in deeply,

And as you exhale,

Imagine releasing any fears of imperfection.

Remember Brene Brown's words,

Vulnerability is not winning or losing,

It's having the courage to show up when you can't control the outcome.

Now,

Place your hand on your heart,

Feel its steady rhythm,

A reminder that you're enough just as you are.

You don't have to have all the answers,

You don't have to be perfect.

True leadership is just about being present,

Listening,

And allowing yourself to be seen,

Flaws and all.

As you stand in this space of openness,

Imagine the people you lead or influence in your life.

Picture them gathering around you,

Not looking for perfection,

But for authenticity.

They trust you,

Because you're real,

Because you're willing to step into the arena despite the risk.

Breathe in the power of that connection,

Of leading with heart.

Now take a moment to whisper a quiet affirmation to yourself,

I am brave,

I am worthy,

I lead with courage and compassion.

Feel that truth settle into your bones,

And slowly bring your awareness back into the present moment,

Wiggling your fingers and toes,

Roll your shoulders,

And when you're ready,

Gently open your eyes.

You're ready to step forward,

Not with the weight of needing to be perfect,

But with the power of being real.
