Strength, perseverance, and endurance are often seen as virtues. But what happens when we need a break—before we break?
Mental health isn’t just about surviving—it’s about thriving. As leaders, we must recognize when stress, anxiety, and pressure are taking a toll on ourselves and those around us. Yet, so often, we push through, afraid of how we’ll be judged or too caught up in momentum to pause.
Rethinking Strength in Leadership:
✅ Recognize the signs – Be aware of stress and anxiety before they escalate.
✅ Pause & reflect – Take a breath, bring the issue to the surface, and process it.
✅ Seek support – Asking for help is an act of courage, not weakness.
✅ Find perspective – Reset through self-care, reflection, and humor.
✅ Invest in your mental well-being – It’s essential for you and those you lead.
💡 As leaders, we must model not just productivity—but balance, resilience, and self-care.
