Is the life you’re leading true to you? Do you feel like you’re endlessly striving in a world that never stops asking for more? Too often, we exhaust ourselves in pursuit of supposed ideals. We give everything in search of ‘success,’ while struggling with stress, guilt, self-doubt, and burnout. It’s time to dismantle the illusion of external validation. It’s time to embrace your inherent worth as a woman and a leader. Lead Like You is a roadmap for rediscovering the authentic you and realising a new way to live and lead. The key to true transformation, radical resilience, and deep fulfilment lies within: learning to know yourself, care for yourself and truly be yourself, at work and in life. Lead Like You will show you how to ignite this personal and professional revolution. Through courageous stories, evidence-based practices and insights from psychology, author Jo Wagstaff shares indispensable tools for forging a profound connection with — and caring for — the self. Learn how you can lead your career and lead yourself with more purpose and power.
Lead Like You shares the tools and knowledge you need to feel calm, confident, and empowered as a female leader. You’ll discover how to find power in vulnerability and return to your true values and purpose. This book will inspire you to do the inner work and redefine your vision for success — so you can live and lead true to yourself.
