Ep. 27: Empowering Authentic Leadership- Insights from Cara Jean Wilson part 2

📢🎙️ We're thrilled to release Episode 27 of the Lightspeed Investing Podcast, featuring the remarkable Cara Jean Wilson, founder of "Taking CARA Business."  In this episode, Cara delves deep into her journey from corporate leadership to successful entrepreneurship, sharing invaluable insights for leaders and aspiring business owners. 💼 💡 Cara's 25+ years in leadership development have equipped her with profound wisdom. She candidly discusses the transition to business ownership during the pandemic, leaving a corporate job on the day she was induced to have her baby, and launching her coaching business the same week. Her story is a testament to resilience and determination, balancing new motherhood with the challenges of starting a business. 💪 She highlights the "corporate handcuffs" dilemma—good pay and job stability without fulfillment—and the trust issues and resistance she faced in corporate environments. This led her to seek authenticity and alignment in her work, emphasizing the importance of leaders practicing what they preach. 🌟 Cara introduces her "CARA method" (Clarify, Assess, Realign, Achieve), focusing on aligning personal leadership with business leadership. She defines "spicy leaders" as those who are neurodivergent, leveraging their unique experiences as strengths. In her coaching practice, Cara helps clients navigate authenticity, ⏱ time, and energy challenges. Cara's methodology involves aligning vision, mission, values, edge, and key performance indicators (KPIs) to ensure clarity and purpose. She offers clarity sessions, 1-on-1 coaching, group trainings, and a comprehensive year-long course called the Failure Expert Course. 🌐 Join her Facebook Group "Cara Corner" for ongoing support, weekly reviews, and open coaching hours. 🎧 Watch the full episode on 👉 LinkedIn Also on 📺 YouTube 🎙️ Ready to Share Your Story on Lightspeed Investing Podcast? 📅 Schedule your call with our host, Philip: https://calendly.com/lightspeedinvesting #LightspeedInvesting #Podcast #Leadership #Entrepreneurship #Coaching #LeadershipDevelopment #Authenticity #BusinessSuccess #CaraJeanWilson #TakingCARABusiness #InvestInYourself
