The Real Cost of Doing Everything Yourself
Many leaders wear self-reliance as a badge of honour.
But in Born to Win, I ask a harder question:
👉 What is self-reliance actually costing you?
Time.
Energy.
Growth.
Joy.
This book teaches delegation not as loss of control, but as multiplication of impact.
The journey to winning starts soon. Born to Win is on the way.
Tomorrow at 10 AM Pacific, I’m going live on Facebook.
Not to “launch.”
Not to “promote.”
To reflect.
I’ll be reading a few excerpts from my book and sharing what writing it did to me.
Writing it confronted my fear.
My perfectionism.
My visibility resistance.
It stretched my leadership in ways I didn’t expect.
If you’re building something meaningful, you’ll understand — the creation process changes you before it changes anyone else.
And for one day only, the book will be available for $10.
If you’ve read it and it supported you, I would genuinely appreciate a short review on Amazon. That simple act helps more women find this message.

Let’s talk about growth from the inside out.

I’m honored that this Thursday, February 26 at 9 AM PST / 5 PM BST, Mirela Sula will open the Global Woman Club meeting with a live interview about my new book Radiant Revolution: The Rise of Feminine Wisdom and Future of Leadership.
And we’re extending this opening conversation as a special invitation to non-members.
This conversation goes beyond achievement. It’s about what sits underneath it.
For many women, success isn’t a strategy issue — it’s a conditioning issue.
We were trained to be capable but not disruptive.
Visible but not “too much.”
Ambitious — as long as it didn’t threaten anyone.
We’ll explore:
– The invisible rules women absorb about power and likability
– Why success can feel unsafe — even when we consciously want it
– How to expand your income and influence without abandoning your intuition
If you’ve been feeling the tension between ambition and hesitation… this one’s for you.
Join us live:
9 AM PST / 5 PM BST

There’s a kind of leader people trust immediately.
Not because she’s the most forceful.
Or the most polished.
But because she’s there.
She’s actually present. She embodies her leadership.
That kind of presence settles a room.
It makes people more honest.
It changes the quality of decisions being made.
This is the kind of leadership that’s emerging now — less performance, more grounded awareness.
It’s a major thread in Radiant Revolution (Feb 25).

From Awareness to Action: How Community Leadership Drives Inclusive Health Research | ##nihr #healthresearch #communityleadership #inclusiveresearch #healthequity
How you sleep?
Pills can force sleep.
But they don’t restore it.
Your body may rest.
But your brain doesn’t fully recover.
And the root problem? It stays wide awake.
Sleep isn’t a switch you flip.
It’s a biological process driven by stress regulation, circadian rhythm, nervous system balance, and mental load.
When we sedate the symptom without addressing the cause, we trade short-term relief for long-term disruption.
The real question isn’t:
“How do I knock myself out tonight?”
It’s:
“Why can’t my system feel safe enough to sleep?”
High performance isn’t built on sedation.
It’s built on recovery.
Fix the stress.
Regulate the rhythm.
Calm the nervous system.
Sleep follows.

Innovation doesn’t fail because of ideas.
It fails because people don’t feel safe to use them.
Before you can transform a team or a company, you have to understand the human inside the structure.
In this podcast conversation, Barbara Joshua shares what nearly 30 years of leadership experience has taught her about emotional intelligence, humility, and the real reason culture either thrives… or breaks.
This is about presence. Listening. And the kind of leadership the next generation is asking for.
Watch the full podcast on YouTube — and share. Because in this podcast You'll learn something that actually can change how you show up and lead!
