Leading, when it hurts
Leadership isn’t just about making the easy choices—it’s about standing firm in your values, even when the path ahead is painful. Recently, I faced a moment where I was called to act in a way that went against everything I believe in. Walking away felt like the only way to protect my integrity, but I realized that if I stayed, I could shape the conversation with compassion and ensure that dignity and empathy weren’t lost.
This journey is not easy, but I will lead the only way I know how—with love, with courage, and with the unwavering belief that no one is less than. Because true leadership is about extending the table, not shrinking it.
