Recently I was a guest on Dr. Nancy O’Reilly’s podcast Smart, Amazing Conversations with Dr. Nancy, where we discussed how leaders can develop a possibilities mindset in times of unrelenting uncertainty. Dr. Nancy O’Reilly is the founder of Women Connect4Good foundation and is a trailblazer for women’s empowerment and supporting women in the pursuit of leadership.
Like me, she is an endurance athlete who appreciates that the business world of today requires the same resiliency skills as those of an endurance athlete. During our conversational, yet informative conversation, I felt like turning the tables and asking her about her personal leadership journey (note for one of my 2022 podcasts).
We enjoyed discussing how we really never know what today – or tomorrow – will bring. And the more you’re responsible for, the more stress can result. As women leaders, we need to acknowledge this, prepare ourselves for whatever curveball is coming our way and support other women in doing the same.
Thank you Dr. Nancy for the opportunity!
