She became a HR director at 28, but that's not the most interesting part of her story

I've been thinking about my conversation with Nicole all week.

She's 28 and already an HR director at a major MNC, which is impressive. But what really struck me wasn't her title or her age. It was how she talked about her journey.

Nicole shared something with me that most people never discover: the challenges that nearly broke her as a teenager became the foundation of her leadership strength today.

She told me about her daily practice of self-awareness, how she approaches every setback as a learning opportunity, and why she never stops questioning what she thinks she knows about herself and her work.

During our conversation, she said something that's stayed with me: "Those who pivot fast are the ones who embrace learning."

And watching her, I could see exactly what she meant.

There's something different about people like Nicole.

They don't wait for their company to develop them or for their circumstances to improve. They take ownership of their own growth, even when everything feels uncertain.

I've been sharing some of Nicole's insights on our new LIFT YouTube channel because her perspective on self-awareness and growth feels especially relevant right now.

If you're curious about how she built the inner strength that carried her through both personal struggles and professional challenges, her story might resonate with you too.

I'm not sure if you're someone who's facing your own transitions or feeling stuck in your career, but if Nicole's approach to growth and self-mastery sounds interesting, I'd love to have you join our community.

You can find her story and others like it on our LIFT YouTube channel, hit the subscribe button.

And if you're ready to explore your own inner development, LIFT From Within might be a good fit, or we could always have a conversation about what's on your mind.

Either way, I hope Nicole's story reminds you what I'm constantly learning: our greatest growth often comes from the places we least expect it.

Thanks for being part of this journey with me.

With you on this journey,
