Today, we're kicking off a 3 part series and diving into a topic that's close to my heart: personal leadership. You might be thinking, "Emily, I'm not a CEO or a manager. What's this got to do with me?" Well, let me tell you - it has everything to do with you!

Personal leadership isn't about having a fancy title or corner office. It's about taking charge of your own life, making intentional choices, and being the best version of yourself. It's the art of leading yourself first before you can effectively lead others.

Let me share a little story. When my husband's job took us to India, I found myself in a new country, without a job, and feeling completely lost. I remember standing in our apartment, surrounded by boxes, thinking, "Who am I now?" That was my wake-up call to personal leadership.

So, why does it matter? Picture this: You're juggling a million things - kids, work, housework, and maybe even caring for ageing parents. You're exhausted, feeling stuck, and wondering, "Is this all there is?" That's where personal leadership comes in. It's about:

1. Clarity: Knowing who you are and what you want.
   2. Ownership: Taking responsibility for your choices and actions.
   3. Growth: Continuously learning and improving.
   4. Impact: Making a positive difference in your life and others'.

When you embrace personal leadership, you stop feeling like life is happening to you and start making life happen for you. It's about reclaiming your power and purpose, even in the midst of chaos.

In my next post, we'll explore how personal leadership can transform your life. Trust me, it's a game-changer!
