* The information we get from our bodies is the doorway to more senior levels of leadership. * This is better than basing what we do on what we see other people doing. * Women in leadership are invited, encouraged, maybe required not to be ourselves. * Instead, how can we have access to both guts and grace in a leadership role?

LeeAnn's belief: * The information that your body has to offer is equally, if not more, important than your thoughts. * When you get the body involved, it's easier to pivot, add to your toolbox, or open up to new ways of being. * When you're not getting the results you want, pay attention to patterns. * To work towards coherency, the key ingredient is almost always curiosity.
