What is Your Calling?
Leadership is a calling and a lifelong journey. Along the way you will get more cuts and scars than you otherwise would, and when that happens, you will be faced with a decision: to close down, numb up and keep going, or to open up, reflect, connect and strengthen your heart, because you are meant to do this. This is one of the hardest things to do and requires a lot of knowing yourself, growth, but also a deep connection to your calling.
When you put yourself on the path of leadership, it becomes a responsibility. A responsibility to show up in a higher way than everyone around you does or has to. In order to get there though, you must choose the path of healing from the pain of the scars, forgiveness and connection with your ‘why’. Knowing your calling is the only way to find the strength to not close down the heart but let your heart and spirit grow bigger.
Sometimes you just need to remind yourself along the way that this is not personal, it is simply what you’re meant to be.
