As a leader, it can sometimes feel like giving yourself permission to focus on love is a luxury. After all, there are always deadlines to meet, crises to navigate, and goals to achieve. Yet, when we take a step back and contemplate the power of love, we begin to see that it's not simply a nice-to-have component of our lives, but a necessary one. Love has the ability to transform relationships, heal wounds, and bring joy and inspiration to our every day. So, this week, I invite you to spend some time contemplating and imagining love. Let yourself feel the peace that comes from loving and being loved. Consider how you can infuse more acts of love into your daily leadership practice. By starting with the felt sense of love, you may just find that you're able to show up in your work with greater compassion and strength.
