**“The Mindset Shift Every Strong Leader Must Make About Their Upbringing”**
**Your past doesn’t define you — but how you think about it does.**
In this powerful and eye-opening video, we explore the critical mindset shift every strong, effective leader must make about their upbringing in order to lead with clarity, confidence, and purpose.
Whether you came from struggle, dysfunction, or privilege, your childhood shaped how you see the world — and that lens can either limit you or launch you.
This video will help you rewrite that internal story and **lead from a place of power, not pain.**
You’ll learn:
✅ How to identify limiting beliefs rooted in your upbringing
✅ Why self-awareness is the gateway to authentic leadership
✅ How strong leaders use their past to fuel purpose
✅ The shift from blame to ownership — and why it’s essential for growth
**Great leadership starts with inner work.** Make the shift. Own your story. Lead better.
