Howdy Reader! When the audience is gone… when there’s no one to impress or prove yourself to… who do you become? Over the past few months, I’ve had to ask myself that question again and again. Between health scares in my family, moving across the country, and re-establishing the foundation of my work, I realized how easy it is to perform leadership instead of embodying it. That’s when I started a deeper exploration of what I call your Conditions for Success — the behind-the-scenes factors that shape how you lead, create, and sustain your business.

Happy Holidays Reader! Can I say that? Is it too early yet? This time of year is weird.
