Are we a living example of our personal philosophies for how to live meaningfully?\u201d\r\nLetting your life speak\r\nAs Maya Angelou famously said, \"People will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.\u201d\r\n \r\nAs conscious and conscientious leaders, we not only strive for business results - we want to leave organizations, families and communities better than we found them. To gauge our impact, it\u2019s helpful to look at it from the lens of our actions. What do they say about us?\r\n \r\nThe informal leaders in our lives are often unsung heroes, shaping families and communities for generations. They leave the world a better place by 'letting their life speak', as Parker Palmer famously wrote. They live in alignment with their often unspoken, yet embodied values.\r\n \r\nThis episode is about a very special woman in my life. Without ever explaining them, I knew Betty Mallory's values. She always made me feel special, welcomed, trusted and loved. \r\n \r\nReflections: Are you Walking Your Talk?\r\n\r\nFor you, what makes for a full and meaningful life?\r\n\r\n\r\nWhat is most important to you (aka your values)\r\n\r\n\r\nAfter several observations and interactions with you, could someone reflect back to you your values? Can you describe why or why not?\r\n\r\n\r\nWhat does embodying your values look like? What actions and behaviors would I observe?\r\n\r\n \r\n \r\nLinks and Resources:\r\n \r\nEpisode #43: Pay Attention, Stay Curious | Hokusai Says - www.rise-leaders.com/podcast\r\n \r\nEpisode #33: Putting Your Values Into Action | Jerry Magar - www.rise-leaders.com/podcast\r\n \r\n\"Let Your Life Speak\" by Parker Palmer: ( via my Bookshop affiliate link) https://bookshop.org/a/16835/9780787947354\r\n \r\nMaya Angelou: https://www.mayaangelou.com/\r\n \r\nNever miss an episode! https://mailchi.mp/426e78bc9538/subscribeSubscribe to Rise Leaders on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCKZAhRU1iLsXYwpvCECVreg\r\n \r\nReach out to LeeAnn: https://rise-leaders.com/contact-info/","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300,"thumbnail_url":"https://artwork.captivate.fm/08e1826d-6e4c-4a12-83a4-417b912433fb/ofEDhBRsRM4Iiks_6v7DVbAj.jpeg"}
