Thank YOU for these insights and permission to feel what I feel! As a new design leader, nine months in, I still feel like I am still in the dip. The bit where you connect being a great leader with parenting as "good enough" made me feel so much better. Far too often I think many of us get caught up in "being great" when the definition can translate in so many different ways. Much like "success" what is "great"? Is being great, being perfect? "Please forgive the mess, I didn't have time to pick up all the toys or get to the three baskets of laundry that have been washed but aren't folded or put away." You spoke about inner work. This resonated loud for me. Thank you for making me feel better, at least for now - haha. Bookmarked so I can return to this and looking forward to your book. I am also a new subscriber.
