Summary

A big thank you to Japan America Society Houston for allowing me the grace to receive the J. Thomas Schieffer Leadership Award -And to Executive Director Patsy Brown - you are a wonderful human & a prize in this world: I thank you for sharing this honour with myself and my family! Thoughts at this time: Wellness - Wellness means you are real, vulnerable and share a common sense of wanting to connect with others around you in your community- it is not wanting to be a leader who is not relatable or feels that they are holier than others. Ask yourself to look at the leader in you- you already posses this: Now: What traits would you like to possess and who in life are you looking up to? Who is giving you advice? Where are you learning your everyday values from? Be kind to yourself, let go of old, stale beliefs and surrender to the unknown. What word of the day do you want to focus on? Shall we mend our friendships and harbor better diplomacy in our own lives? Do you have humble and gracious mentors in your life? Mend, pray for others, listen to your enders, prize them & war- can we better learn from these times? So we do not repeat history? Can we erase hatred from our own hearts? Can we lean into a better understanding of one another simply by listening & choosing curiosity? Thank you for listening & have a great week all xx ck
