With all your experience guiding others, individuals, leaders, organizations, How do you bring those same lessons and tools into your own family life? Or do you blend in those insights in a subtle manner through how you show up as a parent, maybe even now as a grandparent? I'd love to hear how your work and wisdom show up in the most personal part of your life.
