Embracing Imperfection, Leading Authentically
Published on Oct 20, 2026
Leadership is about being human, owning our gaps, and having the courage to grow. This newsletter explores how self-awareness and the willingness to ask for support deepen trust and strengthen authentic leadership.
In The Happiness Hour, I speak with Professor Francis X. Clooney, SJ, Jesuit priest and Harvard scholar of comparative theology, on spirituality, religion, interfaith understanding, and the secret of happiness that grows from a deeper connection with ourselves and the world around us.
You will also find a reflection on the energy we waste hiding our gaps, an insight on why freedom is our birthright and begins within, a new comic-style story from my life, and a thought from Chapter 7 of I Am Perfection on leading collaboratively.
Whether you are a leader building your self-awareness, a woman leader finding your voice, or on a spiritual growth journey, here is a moment to pause, reflect, and lead with intention.
