Running a business is tough, and without a deep belief in the "why" behind your work, it's easy to give up when challenges arise.

In today's episode, I had the pleasure of chatting with the inspiring Kiley Peters. We talked about staying true to your mission, even when it'd be easier to pivot away from adversity. We also explore the process of honing your unique message by infusing personal experiences into our business narratives. Kiley, with her wealth of experience, stresses the importance of making business personal.

We also discussed the intricacies of developing a thought leadership platform, emphasizing the importance of curiosity and the willingness to be introspective. Her personal anecdotes about crafting a resonant message were particularly moving, underscoring the value of community support and the bravery required to seek honest feedback. During our chat, we also confronted the common fear of coming across as self-centered when stepping into the spotlight and how a strong sense of purpose can alleviate those doubts. 

Join our conversation to hear more about:

• The definition and impact of thought leadership in business
• The benefits of embracing a generalist approach as a woman entrepreneur
• Tips for getting started in developing a personal and effective thought leadership platform
• Overcoming the fear of vanity and the importance of anchoring in your 'why'

This conversation with Kiley Peters was a powerful reminder that our unique stories and experiences are not just valuable, but essential in shaping the future of leadership. By staying authentic and committed to our cause, we can lead with confidence and make a lasting difference.
