Mother of two and grandmother of four, Diane Halfman is a consultant, trainer, and host of the podcast Live Your SPAlife, which teaches people how to "seek power always."
She is also a former police officer who worked undercover as a prostitute to hunt down a serial killer. She found that the skills she learned from 10 years on the job, much of it "in character," translated into lessons she could share with business leaders looking to move through crises, manage boundaries, and not second-guess themselves.
"I learned, particularly undercover, about having to trust myself in stressful situations to be able to make quicker decisions, to really be able to move through stress no matter what's going on. These are the exact skills that our leaders need," she said.
Diane also found that her success in police work came from a strong habit of listening to the guidance God was giving her to go along with her police training.
"We've got to listen enough to where, you know, that intuition comes," she said. "That was really helpful in police work; that in trusting myself, I am trusting God that whatever happens I am going to make the right decision, that I am going to help people stay safe, I am going to keep myself safe, I'm going to come home to my two daughters."
Diane is a great example of gentle strength and I'm sure you will enjoy hearing her share some of her stories in this week's episode of Chiseled.
