Power of Presence: Recognize Kairos, Manage Chronos [Episode 45]

In this episode we dig into the heart of privilege, power, and influence — and what those really mean beyond the buzzwords. Influence isn’t just about a flashy post; it's about meaningful, long-term impact. We look at the difference between sponsorship and mentorship: sponsorship opens doors with authority, while mentorship shares the insights that can change someone’s path.With personal stories, I unpack the power of building influence with intention — how trusted voices can shape our lives over time, like a steady light that’s here to stay, not just a quick flash. Join the conversation as we reflect on mentors who’ve had our backs, who we’ve influenced along the way, and how to use that influence to make a difference.
