It’s no secret that being a leader can be a lonely experience. You’re constantly making decisions that will impact other people, and you can’t always be sure that you’re making the right choice. This can lead to a lot of stress and anxiety, and it’s important to find ways to cope with it. One of the best ways to do this is to be vulnerable with your team. When you show them that you’re human, they’ll be more likely to trust and respect you.

Our guest this week is the author of "Tomorrow Together: Essays of Hope, Healing, and Humanity." In this episode of The Fit Mess, David Dye shares how being open and honest about your struggles can help build stronger relationships and create a more effective team at home or at work. He also outlines the benefits of being vulnerable as a leader, including increased empathy and understanding.

In this episode of The Fit Mess we discuss:

Leading for people or purpose otherwise it’s going to be harder
Getting Clarity on what success means and how you can contribute to it
Why vulnerability is key to being a leader
The power of perspective in leadership

Don’t let the conversation end there. Join us in our Facebook Group where you and fellow Fit Mess listeners can connect for monthly challenges, accountability to reach your goals, and a supportive community.
