🎙️ Coming Home to Your Power with Ruth Andermatt | The Art of Value Whispering Podcast (Episode 313) Have you ever felt as though you need to be more confident, more outspoken or more visible to succeed? It's an easy belief to fall into, especially when we're surrounded by examples of leadership that seem louder, faster and more assertive than feels natural. But what if authentic leadership isn't about becoming someone else? What if it's about trusting yourself enough to lead in a way that feels true to who you are? In this episode of The Art of Value Whispering Podcast, I'm joined by leadership coach Ruth Andermatt to explore why self-leadership is the foundation of authentic leadership. Drawing on her experience as the only female director leading a team of 70 men in corporate Canada, Ruth shares the lessons she's learnt about trusting your intuition, leading with integrity and helping others succeed without compromising who you are. Together, we explore why so many women feel they need to perform rather than lead, how to reconnect with your own strengths, and why coming home to yourself can transform not only the way you lead, but the way you build your business too. This isn't a conversation about becoming louder. It's about becoming more intentional. Leading with quiet confidence. And recognising that the qualities you've been overlooking may be the very ones your team, your clients and your business need most. 💡 WHAT YOU'LL LEARN IN THIS EPISODE ★ Why self-leadership is the foundation of authentic leadership ★ What Ruth learnt from leading a team of 70 men in corporate Canada ★ Why so many women feel they need to become someone else to succeed ★ How to trust your intuition when making difficult decisions ★ The difference between performing leadership and leading authentically ★ Why "coming home to yourself" can change the way you lead and live ★ How asking for help can become one of your greatest strengths ★ Why authentic leadership and authentic marketing have more in common than you might think *********************************************** 🎧 Prefer to Listen?
