You’re Not Alone: Leading From Within (Part 2)
Share
A Continued Reflection Inspired by "Tribes" by Seth Godin
Last week, I shared how reading Tribes by Seth Godin was like looking into a mirror. It put words to experiences I’ve lived and truths I know many of you have experienced in silence.
This week, we continue that conversation. If you’ve ever felt overlooked, unheard, or led without the title, you’re not alone.
So many of us didn’t leave traditional workplaces because we lacked ability. We left because the culture made it impossible to thrive. For those still in it, trying to lead from the middle, trying to be heard, trying to bring solutions, you are doing the work of leadership, whether anyone acknowledges it or not.
Tribes repeated what I've been saying and thinking...that leadership isn’t about titles and isn't just at the top. Leadership can be found at all levels and is about trust, connection, and having the courage to care when others stay quiet. I’ve lived both sides of that, and I know how costly silence can be. I also know that speaking up can be costly, as well.
If this resonates with you, you’ll want to hear the full episode. I talk candidly about what it means to lead from the bottom, challenge shallow systems, and hold onto your integrity in spaces that don’t always know what to do with it.
