This is a wonderful video about self identity and authentic self expression, by Caroline McHugh. The topic is discussed through a well crafted framework in a form of a story. A story told by the side of the fire on a winters night. I don’t think I can do this video justice through my description – it just has to be experienced.
This is an inspiring story by Kerstin Plehwe about female leadership. She has a simple point. Leadership starts from within, based on an authentic and clear focus. This is what Kerstin calls passion and purpose.

I’m really excited to share this video with you today. Oprah is an impressive individual and a personal inspiration to me. She has accomplished so much and overcome many challenges. As her first-hand testimony will show – a lot of hard work goes a long way.
The lesson that most struck me in this video was the importance of her own inner journey to her outward success. Oprah talks a lot about her self reflection. The ‘how’ and the ‘why’ questions behind what we do in work. This stood out to me, as often we think about what we want at work. What we want to be paid. What company we want to work in. What promotion we want next. Oprah talks a lot about mission, giving and contribution through our work. A great lens to look at leadership.
This is an extended video at over an hour long. It’s well worth it.
