THE EMPOWERED WOMAN What Empowered Women Do Differently?


Empowered Woman understand that leadership doesn’t come from a title or position.


They understand that leadership is influence and the ability to influence others and be a leader is born out of leading themselves first.


Empowered women think differently.


3 Mindsets To Avoid If You Want To Gain Credibility As Leaders. 1. “I MUST BE COMFORTABLE.”

Practicing self-leadership requires a woman to step up, and step out of her comfort zone. As you expand the size of your comfort zone so too will you grow as a person.


2. “I MUST BE LIKED.” Seeking the approval of others or the other extreme – intentionally rebelling against others’ opinions in order to be liked is NOT purposedriven, but opiniondriven.


3. “I MUST WIN.” or “I MUST BE RIGHT”

If you think that to win, you must lose or to be right, you must be wrong. Both mindsets function from the premise of satisfying the ego – it doesn’t come from a powerful place where you first serve others or put the needs of the organization above yours.


How can women be the “right you�? Being the right you is about authenticity. And the first step is to be aligned with who you are. As you align your strengths and purpose in life, other aspects of your life will fall into place effortlessly


5 Questions Will Help You On Your Journey To Discovering Your Purpose 1. What do you do best? It could be natural talents or skills that you feel confident and at ease with.


2. What makes you feel good? What do you enjoy doing? What makes you feel fantastic about yourself? When you engage in a particular activity, be aware of your response to that activity. Do you feel fulfilled, or is it merely something you do out of obligation?


3. Ask for feedback. Those who are closest to you know you best. They know how you will react to a situation, your highlights, and your blind spots. Ask them to be honest in their assessments.


4. Define and refine. Once you discover your purpose, it’s important to define and continuously refine your mission. Don’t expect changes overnight, because it will take some time to reap the benefits of the new you. Ask yourself, if I am the CEO of my own organization, would I follow me?


5. Set accurate priorities. Determine and define the most important things you need to accomplish each day. The first daily priority has to be you! Once you begin your days focusing on you, you gain clarity on how to align your day with your purpose and mission.
