In this episode, Brooke Brolo, an agency owner, shares her story of coming into the insurance world unknowingly and the many beliefs under which she operates. It all started when her stepfather's life insurance policy had lapsed, thus leaving her mother with nothing at his death. That set of events made a significant impression on her and fueled a passion to lead differently and bring out the best in others. Brooke leads by example and empowers her team. She believes that freedom as a leader is more of creating a strong team and letting them thrive. Her conviction is to be the leader that she had wished for when she was younger and to help others become great leaders sooner.
The discussion takes on themes of leadership, empowerment, and self-validation. Brooke reflects on her journey, discussing the challenges of letting go of control to empower. Another essential reason is to meet your mentors and be around empowering personalities. Brooke and Beau Vincent share their views regarding the imposter syndrome and how crucial self-validation is, but another level beyond that, how critical is a celebration with people around you and creating a positive workspace environment.
Brooke and Beau talk about lessons learned from challenges and the essential feature of communication for leadership. They share personal stories and insights on recognizing and developing leadership qualities in oneself and others. The most obvious way of dealing with it is to find your tribe, be authentic, and get into purposeful relationships.
