10/11/23 • 23 min

Welcome to Part 3 of this special three-part episode series of the Business Miracles podcast: Using Your Highly Sensitive Leadership Skills In A Traditional Professional Setting. You’ll be hearing wisdom and insights from me, as well as hearing from select highly sensitive leaders who are currently creating more impact and more income within their traditional professional roles – and all with way less effort – by applying their highly sensitive leadership skills.

Listen now to hear how Lisa Bolton, Business Miracles Member, Highly Sensitive Entrepreneur and Leader, RN-BSN, and Holy Fire® Reiki Teacher and Practitioner, made the shift from struggling with being visible and owning her value to confidently and consistently using her highly sensitive leadership skills to enhance her nursing career, as well as to support other helping professionals such as doctors, nurses, and other wellness practitioners feel safe to be seen and heard. That is highly sensitive leadership. I have a sense that as you listen, you’ll be as inspired by Lisa as I am.
