Chasing Authenticity: A Journey of Leadership and Growth
Becoming Your Best Self, One Step at a Time
Just a little over five months ago, I started a new journey of growth that encourages me to be more open and welcoming to friends and leaders who want to join me. I feel comfortable in a group of people who share similar values and are excited about living authentically – welcoming new insights and using them to enhance or build a better world.
Every day, I see my follower numbers grow on social media, and I feel truly humbled. It means a lot to me to know that I've played a part, even in a small way, in the journey of others, even if I never hear from them directly. I truly hope that all @paulettejsterling5 spaces on social media and the website www.sterlingbusinessmanagement.com are seen as uplifting havens—places where dreams turn into reality and where individuals, teams, and organizations work together to become the best versions of themselves.
In today’s fast-paced world, the journey to growth can sometimes seem like a challenging ascent. But here’s the wonderful news that I’ve come to learn and embrace—together, we don’t have to face it all by ourselves. Since starting this new journey, I've been putting in a lot of effort to explore tools, resources, and insights that can help both you and I embrace our leadership potential, navigate change, and cultivate a mindset that thrives on authenticity and transformation.
What Can You Expect as Part of This Growth-Mindset Community?
Every week, I’ve been sharing a variety of content aimed at inspiring, uplifting, and encouraging you to think differently about your motivations, purpose, strengths, and opportunities for making a great impact and growing, just to name a few. I've started adding some quizzes and interactive questions to help those of us who learn in unique ways.
• Sunday’s Sessions: The path to being true to ourselves is not divorced from our spiritual journey. I've been thinking about my Creator, our relationship, and how I'm presenting myself these days. I really hope this is helpful for others who might be on their own journey too!
• Monday’s Motivations: Let’s embrace our humanity and recognize that Mondays can be quite challenging for many of us. I'm really fond of these motivations and think others will appreciate them too!
• Tuesday’s Leadership Core Matters: Here are some quick and actionable insights to help you enhance your skills in leadership, time management, and personal transformation. You can access them on-demand and use them in real-time!
• Wednesday’s Personal Development and Empowerment: I’m on a journey of growth supported by authenticity. As I gather or create content to enhance our lives, I would love to hear some feedback on how things are going for everyone.
• Thursday’s Goal-Setting to Unleash Leadership Potential: Thoughtful posts that highlight the challenges we might face with goal setting? I offer solutions and strive to showcase strategies that help not only in setting goals but also in achieving them!
• Friday’s Leadership Empowerment: Through a friendly FAQ format, I believe it’s beneficial to reflect on and enhance our strengths, seek solutions to our challenges, and pose thought-provoking questions.
• Friday’s ‘FRI-YAY’ thought-provoking quizzes: For those of us who enjoy learning in our own unique ways, feel free to dive into quizzes, multiple choice questions, word matches, and more on topics related to key aspects of leadership, all while exploring new perspectives and ideas.
Conversations Worth Having
I've been working on 7-minute internet "bite-size" sessions called "A Leader's Chase for Authenticity" that talks about my own leadership journey over the years and gives real-life examples of what it means to be a leader. I always want to leave people feeling encouraged and eager to do what's best for them and get the finest results.
A 30-minute online chat ‘Chasing Authenticity with remarkable people’ —friends, family, as well as some persons many may readily know—where we talk about what it means to be real and share experiences about how we have overcome problems, made mistakes, and had successes.
Why This Journey Matters
This community isn’t just about professional development; it’s about personal transformation as well. It’s a collective pursuit of authenticity, a chase for a better version of ourselves, and a commitment to leaving a meaningful impact on the world around us.
I can’t wait to connect with you and hear your stories as we walk this path together. Remember, growth isn’t just a destination—it’s a journey, and it’s one we’re embarking on side by side.
So, are you ready to take the next step? Let’s embrace this experience of a lifetime and discover what’s possible when we chase authenticity, learn new knowledge, sharpen our skills and improve ourselves for the glory of the Lord and the good of all.
Please accept this sincere invitation to join me. Let’s make this journey truly memorable!
With gratitude and excitement,
