Thank you for joining me for this series titled "Stronger Through Adversity." This series highlights key takeaways from my upcoming book\xa0of the same name.\xa0That book is based on conversations and work with more than 140 global leaders. This installment is titled "Put Your Mask On First."\nLeading through the pandemic has been an adventure. According to the CEOs and board members with whom I interacted, that adventure often meant self-sacrifice. Many leaders were working 16, 18, and 20 hours a day. I will be honest I was in that 20 hours a day camp myself.\nIn\xa0Stronger Through Adversity, leaders share how they maintain balance, self-talk, exercise, deep breathing, and movement. Leaders link improved performance to self-care rituals, where (as in the instructions of flight attendants) they put their self-care masks on first so they could assist others.\nWhat are your self-care rituals? How diligently have you been putting your self-care mask on first? How do you remind yourself to pause, breathe, and move?\nIf you would like to learn more about\xa0Stronger Through Adversity\xa0and get your special pre-order offer head to strongerthroughadversity.com.
