1. Decide what is personal to you – and honor it.
2. Don’t let fear stop you – or become your excuse.
3. Be honest about the ‘why’…why you didn’t voice your opinion, why you didn’t stand up, and why you may have avoided being true to yourself.

4. Don’t rush the leadership growth, believe it in your soul and let the expression be an extension of yourself.
5. Know your core values. Live your core values. Respect those core values.
