Connection, to me, means building relationships based on trust, empathy, and mutual respect.
Whether in business or in personal life, meaningful connections are what sustain us through difficult times and enhance our successes. During my time as a hostage, the connection I maintained with my family and the support from my faith community were my lifelines.
In my coaching, I help others develop these deep connections by encouraging authentic communication, empathy, and a willingness to be vulnerable. In leadership, meaningful connections are key to inspiring and empowering teams, and in life, they are essential for a sense of belonging and purpose.
