Dealing with things that have happened in your past is not always easy, and the process is often viewed as weak. But what if, instead of toughening up, we chose to soften, sit with what we felt, and carry forward what serves us? Then, rather than being weighed down and shamed by our pasts, we know our heart story and can begin to more clearly see what is in other people’s hearts too. Today’s guest, Teresa Lindsey, CEO of Channel Products, a gas ignition components company, joins us to share her inspirational story of going within. We hear about what her younger years were like growing up in a state of poverty, and she shares both the hardships and joys from this time. We talk about how she views her past and how she has managed to let go of feelings of shame and unworthiness, and realize that she is capable and deserving of more. Teresa believes in leading with love, and she sheds light on her leadership style, the importance of executives showing true vulnerability, and how we can look at our teams differently. Teresa’s story and her approach to life are incredibly inspiring and well worth a listen, so be sure to tune in today. Key Points From This Episode:Get to know Teresa, what she does, and how she came to be the CEO of Channel Products.What Teresa’s interests outside of work include.Hear more about Teresa’s vision board that she spends time on every morning.How Teresa actively cultivates a positive mindset.What Teresa’s childhood was like and the fear she constantly felt when she was young.Why the idea of not being a victim of your circumstance does not resonate with Teresa.The prevalent belief that going into your past is a sign of weakness.How Teresa made the decision to work through her past rather than be bound by it.What Teresa did to get to the core of her heart story.Most executives are not allowed to be fully vulnerable because we see this as weakness.The biggest challenges Teresa currently faces as a leader.Teresa’s human-centered approach to leadership and her decision to lead with love.Loving your team does not mean being soft; it means making decisions through the lens of love.What Teresa would tell her 21-year-old self. Links Mentioned in Today’s Episode:Teresa LindseyChannel ProductsVoice Dialogue InternationalSheer ClarityJKM Management Development
