Have you ever heard the tale of the terrifying sabertooth? Well of course you have! Not only have you heard the story, but you've also probably lived it. Tracey Grove, a high-performance executive coach who specializes in leadership effectiveness and resilience, stepped into Purpose Lounge to share practical steps and insights pulled directly from the pages of her book, "Taming the Sabertooth: Resilient Leadership in a Stressful World." More details are available at www.purposelounge.com.
info_outlineWhen you tune in to Purpose Lounge you immediately get thrust into a conversation steeped in meaning, and sometimes that leads to vulnerable moments. With Sara LeHoullier, her vulnerability shines through and that, my friends, is WHY I invited her to share her story.
Sara is the creative director of Busy Bee (www.thebusybee.me) and the co-founder of Shop the Change (www.shopthechange.com). She's also a wife and very proud step-mom to two young boys.
Like so many of the guests that we have had on Purpose Lounge, Sara is a consummate Purpose Achiever. She has such an energy and passion for family, work, and volunteerism (from the Girl Scouts to several tours of duty with the Peace Corps).
Sara's The Busy Bee helps female founders launch their businesses, their creativity and yes, their vulnerability through beautifully designed and artfully curated websites.
Shop the Change is an online marketplace that provides instant access to transparent information about the companies behind our shopping lists.
But what makes Sara shine so bright is her continuous effort to make the world a better place. And believe me, she's doing it!
Highlights from this episode:
- Steering into purpose and landing smack dab in the middle of a digital universe
- Storytelling + Design to help women-owned, start-ups unleash their brands and their vulnerability
- What it means to be a co-founder of a company that will transform the way we shop
- Role modeling for our kids / especially young boys / especially a child with ADD
- Success ... doing what you love vs. worrying about the financial gain
And, as we do in every episode, advice to the younger generations around living a life of purpose.
Purpose Lounge is for everyone and anyone but really it's for people who relish in hearing tales of those who are taking those quantum leaps into their purpose. If you're looking for inspiration, community, and advice on how to get started... then you've come to the right place.
