Nicole Walker’s Interview Commentary

I really enjoyed this interview with Kierra and I hope you did as well.

I agree with Kierra’s belief that we need to love ourselves first to effectively love others. As Kierra stated, an effective leader leads with love which must begin with self-love in order to extend to others. If we do not have a healthy love relationship with ourselves, then we are not capable of having a healthy love relationship with anyone else. Kierra gave great advice for ways we can learn to love ourselves that I not only agree with, I also use in my continual journey of self-love. A quote by Wayne Dyer reads, “If you don’t love yourself, nobody will. Not only that, you won’t be good at loving anyone else. Loving starts with the self.”

I admire Kierra’s viewpoint on the importance of being comfortable with ourselves, especially when we have to walk the path less traveled. According` to Kierra, leaders go against the grain and do not use the norms of society to dictate their paths. As leaders, we must be strong willed and not waver in search of popularity. Being able to stand for what we believe in, differentiates the strong from the weak. It is often said that true leadership can be a lonely, yet rewarding journey. A quote by Hugh Macleod reads, “The price of being a sheep is boredom. The price of being a wolf is loneness. Choose one or the other with great care.”

I can relate to Kierra’s experience with not having previous knowledge of the field she is now in as I experienced the same. Before becoming a consultant Kierra did not know much about the industry, as I did not know much about podcasting before becoming a podcaster. As with Kierra, hiring a business coach was a pivotal point in my life and opened me up to a whole new world. Kierra suggested that, nothing happens to us, everything happens for us which I completely understand as I have witnessed this truth in my life. Although things may not seem right at a given time, or may not go the way I envisioned; everything works out the way it should. A quote by Richard Branson reads, “Every success story is a tale of constant adaption, revision and change.”
