Our guest is Mary M'Mukindia, an absolutely beautiful person inside and out! A quick heads up - Mary and I are connected through the Genos International community and were together last year in Bangkok which was such a delight. We did have a few wifi wobbles between Kenya and Sydney!   Listen in as Mary opens up about her own journey of self-discovery, shedding her professional mask and embracing vulnerability. We discuss the importance of sharing personal stories to build connection and understanding. Thriving does matter!   Mary explains how her training in emotional intelligence has transformed her approach to leadership, where the importance of our self-awareness, empathy, and people-centric skills is essential for wellbeing and leadership. We also explore how emotional intelligence can help leaders navigate complex interpersonal dynamics.   Of course we discuss the evolving global landscape of wellbeing and leadership where self-care, grace and a focus on vision and people can be complimented by embracing new technologies while maintaining a human-centric approach where AI can enhance productivity and free up time for more meaningful work.   We conclude our conversation by celebrating the power of community, curiosity, and creativity to drive positive change.
