The Friendship Fix
|
Dear Reader Let's talk about the secret weapon missing from most leadership development programs: REAL FRIENDSHIPS! 🚀 Simon Sinek nailed it when he connected leadership excellence with authentic relationships. The data is clear - leaders with meaningful friendships experience:
In Sinek's world, the strongest leaders create those famous "Circles of Safety" because they understand connection on a fundamental level. They've practiced it in their personal relationships! The leadership loneliness epidemic is REAL. But the solution isn't another executive coaching session - it might be grabbing coffee with someone who tells you the truth. As Sinek says: "A team is not a group of people who work together. A team is a group of people who trust each other." Your mental well-being deserves friendships that matter.

I would love to hear your opinion and how you could use it in your work space. Thank you Friend, Alka |

Dear Reader, Karwa Chauth: When Love Trumps Logic (and Lunch) Welcome to modern India, where women are CEOs, surgeons, pilots, and quantum physicists by day—and moon-stalking, starving romantics by night. The Tradition That Refuses to Make Sense (And We Love It Anyway) Let me be clear: Karwa Chauth makes absolutely ZERO logical sense in 2025. "So you're telling me you won't eat or drink water all day because... the moon needs to appear so your husband lives longer?" "Correct." "And you'll do...
