The Impact of Shame on Leadership
A center is as healthy as its’ leader. There is a lot of practical material about being a leader but not much on the emotional aspect. When women have shame from unresolved trauma it impacts their leadership ability to work with others, find fulfillment and satisfaction in the position, make decisions based on truth and much more. Understanding this is the first step to understanding yourself as a leader and the women you lead.

Check Your Bias at the Door
We all have biases in life, based on our own experiences, upbringing, and exposure to various manners of thinking. We shouldn’t be expected to be bias-free, but we CAN become more aware of how our biases can influence us as pro-life advocates and then learn to “leave them at the door” when they limit our effectiveness in reaching clients from various backgrounds and perspectives.
