Oh, the world needs this... more compassion.

Compassion is often misunderstood—some dismiss it as weakness, while others see it as optional. But the truth is, compassion is power—silent, strategic, and transformational. It doesn’t tear down; it builds. And when practiced well, it strengthens teams, deepens relationships, and fosters a thriving culture.

New times demand new leadership approaches. Today's leadership calls for a holistic perspective—what I call 'Holistic Leadership: Leadership for the whole person.' This phrase reflects my observations of the modern workplace.

Leaders can no longer limit their influence to work, departments, or branches. Leadership must transcend the workplace and connect to the lives of their teams, as far as those teams all...

Have you heard of pillow talk? If not, let me break it down. Pillow talk refers to the intimate, relaxed conversations shared between partners while lying in bed—typically before falling asleep or after waking up. It's a moment of vulnerability, connection, and open communication, where people feel at ease discussing personal thoughts, feelings, or even lighthearted topics.

But what happens when the pillow stops being...
