Damn. This hit deep.

You said it perfectly: “Before you can lead others, you must master the art of leading yourself.” I’ve worked under “bosses” who led with control—and under leaders who led with care. Night and day difference. The ones who made a lasting impact were self-aware enough to pause, to listen, to reflect. They didn’t need to micromanage because their presence did the leading.

What you’re calling out is a whole new paradigm—leadership as emotional resonance, not just responsibility. And that starts with reflection. Daily. Internally. Silently.

Appreciate this reminder, Jason. We don’t need louder leaders—we need deeper ones.
