I have always enjoyed reading or watching stories of remarkable individuals, the ordinary to the extraordinary, the impossible to the possible because it inspires me. Stories that bring us optimism, hope and courage. Sometimes, seeing is believing and when a spark is ignited within us, we learn and grow within ourselves that our ability to respond is limitless.
Jacinda Ardern, former New Zealand Prime Minister focuses on the power of love, kindness and empathy as she navigates national crises and barriers to leadership. At the time of her leadership, she was the youngest female leader in the world and the third female prime minister of NZ as well as second elected leader to have a baby whilst in office.
She built a legacy of leadership that stems from “a belief in never losing her capacity for empathy.” She is a living testament that you can be strong and have empathy. She leads with kindness and not being afraid of being kind and she’s proudly driven by empathy as a quality that she thinks the world needs most.
Growing up as a child, she always had the belief that she would like to change the world, even if it’s in the smallest of ways and living a life that was meaningful. Speaking about the confidence gap, she said there wasn’t a big moment where she found confidence, but she found responsibility instead and she laments that has always been a bigger motivation for her as it’s a sense of duty.
Tune in to Jacinda on the Netflix series ‘Live to Lead’.
