This piece stays with me. As someone steeped in mindfulness and self-awareness work, I’m struck by the quiet power of this moment—not only from the leader, but also from Lena.
It takes real courage to speak openly about anxiety, especially in professional spaces where vulnerability is so often masked. Lena’s honesty wasn’t just personal—it was an invitation. And her leader met it not with correction, but with respect.
When we honor someone’s model of the world, we don’t just build trust—we help soften the grip of old fears, of limiting beliefs that quietly shape behavior.
Thank you, Andra, for showing how leadership grounded in presence can become a healing force—for both the individual and the culture they’re part of.
