MENGENAI EPISOD INI
In this episode of Dominate Your Day, I speak with Dr. Camille Preston, business psychologist and owner of Aim Leadership, about navigating grief, mental health, and authentic leadership. We unpack the concept of "telescoping grief" how personal and collective loss can merge and become overwhelming and the importance of sitting with those emotions rather than pushing them aside.
We discuss the rising mental health challenges many face today and how small mindset shifts and genuine connection can bring healing. Her new book, Living Real, encourages embracing life's full emotional range and creating community through real conversations.
Camille's focus on managing energy by aligning with strengths rather than forcing performance is a powerful leadership lesson. Her insights remind us that true resilience comes from understanding ourselves deeply and leaning into connection.
Top 3 Takeaways: 1. Living real means feeling the full range of life. Avoiding discomfort leads to burnout and disconnection. Growth and fulfillment come from allowing both the highs and the lows of life.
2. Unprocessed grief compounds over time. When grief is ignored or pushed down, it resurfaces in bigger, messier ways. Healing begins by acknowledging and holding it instead of avoiding it.
3. Lead by sourcing, not forcing. Sustainable leadership comes from knowing your strengths, managing your energy, and making small shifts that let your best self emerge naturally.
