I am truly a product of the relationships I’ve built, whether in academia, business, career, with friends, or even within my family. The value of these connections has been instrumental to my journey. But at the core of it all, the most important thing is simple: be kind. Kindness always opens doors and builds lasting bridges. It was a privilege to share this with the participants at the Social Shifters Academy last week, using Dr. Brené Brown’s BRAVING Framework to dive deep into how trust and relationships can drive success. I’m excited to see how they will apply these lessons to elevate their own projects! #Relationships #BRAVINGFramework #SocialShiftersAcademy #Leadership #Connection
