Welcome back to “For the L of It”.
Our last conversation was centered around collaboration so we thought the best follow-on to that would be a focus on two key attributes (or as we like to say – two sides of the leadership coin) – grit & grace. Both so fundamental to our journey as women and also important as leaders for our investment in others.
In this episode Leana, Kathy and I will define grit & grace for you, we’ll provide a few examples, and we’ll even discuss some ways you can get your own grit & grace on as you keep it real at home and at work.
We’ll also add just a little bit of perspective around emotional intelligence as you can’t lead with grit & grace and not be self-aware. And just a reminder – thinking about ourselves is not the same as knowing ourselves. Leana will lead us on this journey of knowing and honoring ourselves on this path to thriving.
We hope that after tuning in - you walk away knowing a little more about yourself and how grit & grace can be the perfect addition to your investment portfolio!
Enjoy your listening journey!
You know what we say – Do it for the “L” of it!!

Where trying something and finding it is not the best solution is considered a learning....not a failure. Creating and environment where it is safe to be authentic. We need this at the beginning of our journey...not at …
