Ep. 72 Purpose Unleashed: Successful Leadership with Jade Simmons
Jade is living proof that you don't have to choose just one activity to be successful, but you must have purpose.
In part one of this conversation with Jade, a true Renaissance woman who's not afraid to embrace all her gifts, she brings the straight talk of hope to exhausted leaders.
We dove deep into the idea of purpose and leadership, particularly why purpose is the ultimate guide in life and work. Jade shared her powerful definition that I repeat all the time: “Purpose isn't what you do. It’s what happens in others when you do what you do.”
And we talked through what that looks like for you as a leader, and how you cultivate that on your team so productivity soars, creativity flourishes, and success follows (all without the exhaustion).
This conversation will inspire and challenge you to bring your whole, fabulous self to everything you do. Trust me, your work (and the world) will thank you for it!
