Show Notes:
Karin, what else do you want listeners to know about you?
I am just passionate about helping people discover their true authentic leadership style and helping people to grow.
How did you become a leader?
My mother would tell you that I was a leader when I was in diapers. She said I was the only kid she ever met who would organize her stuffed animals and tell them what to do.
Today is a day of Global Giving. After gorging ourselves on turkey and pumpkin pie and spending obscene amounts of money to get the best deals for Black Friday and Cyber Monday, we can join in with others from around the world to share our support of worthwhile causes.
If you’re struggling to decide who to give to on this Giving Tuesday, may I suggest these charities?
Grace’s Table offers a firm foundation for teen mothers and their children, from mothers-to-be, to newborns and toddlers.
Disney’s latest animated feature film is the hit success Moana. Moana is about a Pacific Islander who has to partner with the demigod Maui.
I’ll be honest, I was a bit hesitant going into the movie because of the mythology of the characters. You have demigods, gods, and other mythical references.
There were quite a few references to these beings. If you can get past that, Moana is a fun animated children’s movie that is packed with leadership lessons.

Again and again, this happens. And many leaders sit back and wonder how this can be.
