True transformation starts with us. As trauma-informed leaders, we can’t expect others to embrace healing or change without doing the inner work ourselves. It's not just about offering guidance; it's about walking the walk. When we show up with vulnerability, humility, and self-awareness, we create a safe space for others to do the same. Healing from trauma—whether on a personal or organizational level—requires compassion, patience, and, most importantly, leading by example. The work begins within, and when we do our own healing, we set the stage for others to heal and grow alongside us. If you want to inspire change, start with yourself. #TraumaInformedLeadership #LeadByExample #HealingJourney #TransformativeChange #ResilienceInAction

Building trauma-informed workplaces means recognizing that collaboration won’t always be comfortable. In any relationship or coalition, no one gets their way 100% of the time—and not everyone will get along perfectly. The key is understanding what we’re willing to tolerate, what we’re willing to let go of, and how we hold each other accountable. By fostering spaces rooted in safety, trust, and mutual respect, organizations can navigate differences while staying committed to collective goals. 🎧 Tune into Mindful Management as we explore the realities of coalition-building and accountability in trauma-informed leadership. https://loom.ly/o_6u-cw #MindfulManagement #TraumaInformedLeadership #Collaboration

To demand perfection from yourself is to deny your humanity. 💙 We are not meant to be flawless—we are meant to learn, adapt, and grow. Self-compassion isn’t weakness; it’s a courageous choice to accept your humanness, move forward, and thrive. When you make mistakes, don’t let self-blame hold you back. Instead, embrace your imperfections, shift your perspective, and take action with kindness. The path to resilience isn’t through punishment—it’s through understanding. #SelfCompassion #TraumaInformedLeadership #HumanNotPerfect
