Hi Christelle,
I remember a “light bulb” moment I had at the beginning of my career in the construction industry… when I realized that “being different” was very probably more valuable to me than trying to be as good as, or better, than others… Like being bi-lingual before it was a "thing", going for different types of professional experiences (size and types of projects, roles, types of employers) and finding ways to get international experiences…
But that doesn’t mean that I know everything about “being different” – far from it!
Exploring a world of differences… or at least taking some steps in that direction!
One method I like to use to continue to explore the world of “differences” is through podcasts and YouTube channels, such as:
Sophia Casey TV
As a white western European woman, listening to Sophia's series "Fierce Vulnerability Summit" was a great way to open my eyes to a different world, to listen to conversations that I'm not (yet) having with my social circle…
Sally Hogshead
This is a different type of exploring… With her motto "Different Is Better Than Better", Sally brings the meaning of the word “different” to a whole new level in the corporate and entrepreneurial world!
Question for you: How do you go about exploring worlds that are “different” to yours?
Empowering yourself - starting with holding yourself accountable…
Let’s check on last week:
- Are you TAKING the step(s) you said you would take?
- Did you take a moment to ACKOWLEDGE taking that step?
And week:
- What’s ONE other step you can take this week?
- Do you know what you will GAIN from taking this STEP?
