Have you ever thought about how our choices shape our experiences and identities? In the fourth episode of ‘Humans of Authenticity’, I had a personal and insightful conversation with Monica Sampson about just that. Monica is a devoted mother and a self-proclaimed introverted, strong woman. She explained how her children redefined her outlook and reshaped her leadership style, with her daughter in particular liberating her authentic self. Our mother-daughter relationships really are special!
Throughout our conversation, we discussed the thought process behind making choices and how they can impact our lives. We also shared some of the best and worst choices we’ve made. I’m grateful for how personal and meaningful this episode was.
We also talked about the challenges and benefits of being an introvert in today’s workplace. I just had to include that in this conversation!
When was the last time you had to make a choice? What was your thought process? I’d love to hear your experiences in the comment section.
