Leading with Heart: The Power of Emotions in the Workplace

Emotions at work—should they stay or should they go? 🤔

In this powerful episode of Business Building Blocks, I sit down with emotional resilience strategist, speaker, and author Sarah Westbrook to explore the true role of emotions in leadership and the workplace.

💡 Why do we shy away from emotions at work?
💡 How can embracing them actually make us stronger leaders?
💡 What are the practical steps to create a workplace where emotions fuel productivity, connection, and resilience?

Sarah shares eye-opening insights on how emotions are not the problem, but part of the solution when navigating workplace relationships and challenges. Whether you’re a leader, team member, or entrepreneur, this conversation will transform the way you think about emotions in professional spaces.
