Living While Leading Podcast
THIS! What an enlightening podcast. I absolutely love the spot on content, but I also love that it is succinct while providing a plethora of wisdom and interesting topics.
To be decisive and task the risk
I can resonate with Sharon‘s personal stories, and I’m excited by her mission to help women executives live while they lead. Why do we keep doing the same thing without question for happiness? It seems like Sharon has powerful questions to ask those of us that have so much to give and truly deserve to find the Throughline and to take a worthwhile risk in her corporate careers.
Eye opener
Many of us women have made ourselves a last priority in life as Sharon mentioned. Sadly, I think many of us have just adapted to not putting ourselves on the map. These podcasts are wonderful because with Sharons leadership expertise we can actually imagine a world where we still “do it all” but manage to carve out time for ourselves during our hectic days. It’s a win win for those of us who haven’t figured it out. Brenda C.
