Before I started with Kris Mind Dynamics, I was feeling like I was always sacrificing my family especially my for my role as a leader of financial firm. My leadership style was being hinders by other peoples views of leadership and not what I thought was best. As I felt out of control my perfectionist traits and my people pleasing traits meant that I was sacrificing myself to be liked. Once I experienced coaching with Kristen, I started to notice that I could set boundaries and be happy with the type of mother I was and type of leader I was trying to be. I could see that my authentic self was someone I wanted to be. It also reiterated why I naturally connect with some people and not others, and learnt strategies to work with people I am not naturally comfortable with. I fully understand above and below the line leaders. My leadership style has become more natural. My guilt associated with being a bad mum due to choosing my role as a director over a mum has eased and I have started to see that you can do both, you just need clear boundaries. Be present in the moment each role I play is the most important part. It is also good to be childlike at time 12. Being authentic is a leadership trait I wish to have, even if that leaves me vulnerable because ultimately my purpose is to help people. Since completing the coaching I now feel like I can tackle areas of our business such as the big picture and areas around Structure, even though it is not my natural style, I am more willing to give it a go.
