Next Episode: December Coaching Calendar - Gift#7: On celebrating life, and grieving what we have lost - the importance of acknowledging life and work events.

Sisu is a Finnish word, or concept that means inner strength, grit, or determination. We often like to talk compare it to resiliency

How can we find and exercise our inner strength? Can we all have Sisu?

Indeed we can. This episode explores what Sisu is, and how you can develop your inner strength by intentionally taking small calculated risks, placing yourself in situations that are uncomfortable, or a bit scary. By taking chances, and learning from your errors. Over a period of time.

I share my experience from coaching those working in the humanitarian and international development space, and undergraduate students in a college leadership program, and how they develop inner strength.

Happy 105th Independence Day Finland!
