Self-reflection and personal honesty are leadership strengths
What do you do when your social drinking becomes a crippling habit in a downward spiral of destruction? We can admit defeat, we can surrender, we can ignore it, or we can own it. Rachel Hind chose complete responsibility. Her journey to sobriety is one of personal honesty, radical self healing, and personal transformation shows great courage.
Why you should listen: true leadership starts with yourself
We talk about how drinking for middle aged women has increased 85% in the last ten years
The warning signs for the start of liver cirrhosis, how the first stage of healing begins with honesty with oneself
Why pain and suffering can be the biggest opportunity for self empowerment
We explore confronting personal demons as a leadership principle
Is alcoholism an addiction or not, the two very different paths for recovery
Jack Canfield’s model of E + R = O (event plus response equals outcomes), the switch from success based on external markers to success based on living according to one’s values
How one’s quality of life is directly related to how much uncertainty one can deal with
