In leadership, it’s not just about what you say, but how you say it.

Being grounded when you are delivering information is key to retention and building trust.

Keep in mind that emotions are data points, not immediate directives. 📈 📈 📈

They’re signals to notice and consider consciously, not scripts to follow.

But when stress runs high, even the best leaders can lose their edge by reacting instead of responding.

Think about your last challenging moment at work. Did you lead from emotion or intention?

Unchecked emotions can distort your message, weaken your influence, and erode trust.

Staying grounded in your personal power means being aware of what you’re feeling without letting it run the show.

🧭 This week’s reflection:

➡️ When was the last time you reacted emotionally? How would the grounded version of you have responded instead?
