#005: Transformational Leadership and Self-Acceptance with Dr. Laura Gallaher

According to our past guest, Jeff Henderson, “The best gift you can give the organization you lead is a healthy version of you.” Today on S2, we dive into some practical ways to do this with Dr. Laura Gallaher, PHD. She explains how self-acceptance is the beginning to transformational leadership within your organization. Transformational health has more to do with who you are and less to do with what you do.  You will learn key ways to practice self-acceptance and elevate the champion within you. Learn more about Laura at GallaherEdge.com and get on the path to being the best leader you can be to yourself and your organization. This episode is sponsored by The 261.  Start your day with clarity! As leaders, we have countless things on our mind: things we need to do, things we’re not doing, problems we need to solve, new exciting ideas––all jotted down in that worn out mental notebook we keep in our heads.  But, sometimes leaders and entrepreneurs simply need to step away from the mental clutter––sometimes we don’t need the notebook, we just need a sticky note––a simple reminder along the way to help us gain clarity and control of our business.  That’s why we created a new FREE resource called The 261. As you may know, there are 261 work days in the calendar year. So, we have mapped out the entire year with daily micro thoughts and micro actions––sticky notes––to help keep the ball moving forward in your personal life as a leader and for the sake of your business.
