The mysterious man has no business being charming, interesting, and attractive, right? You’ve probably fallen for him at least once or fallen in love with him in a book. So, was he everything you could ever dream of? I know mine wasn’t! As much as mystery is exciting and charming, it can also be frustrating […]
Since recently returning to the school system, I’ve been thinking a lot about leadership lately. Not just leadership in the sense of running a business or leading a project, but the kind of leadership Jesus calls us to in our everyday lives. You know, that quiet, sometimes behind-the-scenes leadership that doesn’t look like the world’s […]
When I first became a leader in a workplace, I thought I would never have to worry about getting fired. The money and opportunity were good, but I was happier about job security. My happiness quickly dipped when I had a conversation with my mentor months later. The company was not doing too well, and […]
Nobody ever wants to be in the eyeline of an emotionally unavailable man. Sadly, sometimes you find yourself there without even knowing it.

However, a lot of women struggle to have that connection with men. And it makes sense because men […]
People rarely focus on how leaders remain motivated. But it makes sense. Often, it feels that the company needs to focus on those who are not in leadership positions regarding motivation. Leaders have power, a higher salary, and a ‘better’ footing in the company than anyone else. They have all the motivation they need, right? […]
Healthy competition was not something I thought could exist for the longest time. As someone who sadly went to a school system where missing two marks on a test was punished rather than rewarded, I never liked any form of competition. In school, it literally pinned us against each other. And just when I thought […]
Often, it sounds impossible to improve loyalty among people who are not in leadership positions. Many employees are forthcoming about being in it for their own benefit, ready to jump at the next opportunity. I remember being just another worker, and loyalty to my leader and company was not even in my vocabulary. I saw […]
Leadership networking is one of those things you need to get behind in your position. When you first started networking, you were probably looking for a well-paying job, a better opportunity, the chance to be in a leadership role or build a network to help you in future endeavors. So, what is leadership networking about? […]
