“Leadership isn’t about how much you do. It’s about how we think, how we connect, and how courageously we act on what really matters.” - Winnie da SilvaIs the biggest lie you’ve been told about leadership the one you’ve been telling yourself? The one that says your worth as a leader is measured by how much you do - how productive, busy, and available you are. In this episode, I’m pulling back the curtain on one of the most common and costly leadership lies: that doing determines your value. I’ll share what it’s really costing us - our clarity, creativity, and connection - and how we can start leading from a place of deep thinking instead of constant doing.You’ll hear me discuss:* Why leaders (myself included) struggle to let go of the need to constantly prove their value through action* How our obsession with busyness is quietly draining our best ideas and strategic thinking* What deep thinking really looks like and how it can transform not only how we lead, but how we live* How “white space” can become one of the most powerful leadership tools on your calendar* The simple, practical steps I’m taking to carve out time to think (and how you can experiment with your own version)* Why leadership isn’t something we prove. It’s something we practiceResourcesWinnie da Silva on LinkedIn (https://www.linkedin.com/in/winnie-da-silva-1b8414/) | On the Web (https://www.winniedasilva.com/) | Substack (https://winniedasilva.substack.com/) | YouTube (https://www.youtube.com/@winniedasilvaleadership) | Email - winnie@winnifred.org (mailto:winnie@winnifred.org)
