Friendships for UNCONVENTIONAL Leaders (Kristen “KB” Newton)
As Unconventional Leaders, we celebrate “going against the grain” from what others are doing. However, a byproduct of that is sometimes isolation, loneliness, and struggling to have healthy relationships.
Our guest this week says that she used to be a “trash friend”. She was never interested in this topic, even felt uncomfortable getting too close to people and “leaning in even when it was beneficial”. She now helps others build close friendships-- what made the change?
Today we dig into friendships for Unconventional Leaders and why vulnerability and making friendships a priority will help us on our journey of leading well and making a difference through our work.
