Energy, Alignment & Renewal

As a grandmother - or “Mimi” as my grandchildren call me - I’ve noticed how closely children’s energy mirrors the environment around them. In stressful spaces, they absorb tension. In lively company, they become excitable. And when surrounded by love and calm, they too find peace.

This reflection struck me recently when I finally carved out time for myself after weeks without a true weekend. Exhausted, I longed for renewal and found it at our Gold Coast apartment. The winter sun was shining, and my dream weekend unfolded: long beach walks grounding me in nature, a soothing massage, the warmth of the sauna, and nourishing food.

What amazed me was how quickly this reset shifted everything. After just two days, I felt as if I’d had a week’s rest. My body was lighter, my mind clearer, and my heart open again to the people and challenges that matter most. The experience reminded me of the wisdom I share in The 3-3-3 Water Wisdom Protocol - just as water needs balance to stay pure, so do we.

Leadership, parenting, even grand parenting, all draw from the same well: our energy. When we protect and replenish it, we enhance not only our own life but the lives of those around us.

As Mimi, I see how my energy sets the tone for my grandchildren. As a leader, I know it shapes my team and business. And as an author, I continue to explore these truths in Leadership Sh!t Show and beyond.

Sometimes the greatest act of leadership is simply allowing yourself the space to recharge - so you can show up fully, with clarity, love, and strength.
