COFFEE WITH SANDY:
The day we pitched our stories is the day we understood why each of us came together at ASENSO. I'm so happy to have met May Joyce MJ Vertido from the weeks of learning together. She is someone who will keep moving forward, even if she has to take detours to ger there.

She is kind, intelligent, respectful, thoughtful, hardworking, funny, bighearted, and generous with her time. Her clients know that she will find the details of what makes them tick so she can guide them and teach them what their strengths are for their future success. She knows how to build success and prosperity.

I'm grateful to learn about the journey of others and how they build great relationships. Thank you for your years of service and the care you have for others. Thank you for the kindness and positive impact you provide others in our community.

🚨 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗳𝗮𝘀𝘁𝗲𝘀𝘁 𝘄𝗮𝘆 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗮𝗻𝘆 𝗼𝗿𝗴𝗮𝗻𝗶𝘇𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝘁𝗼 𝗹𝗼𝘀𝗲 𝗿𝗲𝗹𝗲𝘃𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗲? 𝗦𝘁𝗼𝗽 𝗴𝗿𝗼𝘄𝗶𝗻𝗴.
Growth is necessary because organizations that stop evolving inevitably stop leading.
In today’s world, markets shift overnight, technology reinvents itself by the minute, and customer expectations are never static. The greatest risk to any organization is not failure—it’s complacency.
When we choose not to grow, we silently choose to be overtaken. Leadership is not a permanent badge of honor; it is a role continually earned through adaptability, innovation, and vision.
Growth, then, is not optional—it is survival. It is also opportunity: the chance to redefine what’s possible, to expand our influence, and to shape the future rather than react to it.
So the question is not whether we can afford to grow. The real question is—can we afford not to?

When purpose meets laughter, leadership becomes contagious. ✨💡
Grateful to share the table at Ivywild with CB The Creative, Rachel Inez Stovall, and Stephan Reinhardt as we prepare for the Leadership Workshop: Leading with Integrity and Purpose. Because true leaders don’t just carry titles—they carry vision, courage, and sometimes… really great coffee orders. ☕😄
Let’s lead with heart, impact with integrity, and prove that serious change can be made with joyful spirits. 🚀

Discipline isn’t about restriction—it’s about direction. Every small act of consistency brings you closer to your true potential. 🚀

Authenticy vs Authority. Which Builds Stronger Leadership?

👑 Authority can make people follow you.
💡 Authenticity makes them want to follow you.

Great leaders don’t just rely on titles—they earn trust through honesty, consistency, and values. True influence comes when authenticity and authority work together.

👉 Swipe through and reflect: Do you lead with authority, authenticity, or both?

True leadership is not about standing above others, but about lifting them high enough to see their own greatness.
