⚡ KEY TAKEAWAYS ⚡

☀️ Leaders: focus on developing people holistically across 4 dimensions - spiritual 🙏, intellectual 🧠, physical 🏋️‍♀️, and emotional 🫀. This lifts people up ⬆️

🌊 When growth develops people, they ride the wave 🌊 instead of being crushed by it.

🧭 Know your core values & leadership style. Share with your team for self-awareness & authenticity.

⛑️ Teams need psychological safety. 👩‍💼 Leaders can model this by respecting boundaries. 🛑 No weekend emails!

🏃‍♂️ Employees: Focus on the most important work, even without permission. Add value!

⏱ Pick one small improvement each week - like blocking time for self-care. 🧘‍♀️ Small gains create lasting change.

📈 Leaders who don't support mental health will struggle to recruit & retain talent.

😊 Consistent small improvements > declaring overnight transformation.

📅 Morning routine, values check-ins, time blocking & family/self-care first prevent burnout.
