When this challenging time is over, what do you want to be proudest of?
Our world is fighting a pandemic that has vastly changed the reality of our everyday lives.
As we face uncertainty, fear rises, and our realities become distorted. Naturally, we begin to ponder our story and our ability to lead through a crisis but, more importantly, if and how we evolve through it.
In difficult times like this, we turn to wise leaders who have been battle-tested throughout life to shed their perspective on challenging times and fuel our journey to see the light in the darkness.
Today’s guest expert is a powerful shining light to everyone she encounters and a beautiful soul who has uncovered what it means to Flip the Script on your life while authentically leading the imperfect, raw, and hilarious part of the journey.
She has been battle-tested serving our nation and has led through many challenges, and she wants you to know that you are more resilient and braver than you know…
Alani Bankhead is a pint-sized justice seeker who loves helping people understand that they are capable of so much more than they could ever imagine!
Throughout her time on active duty, she arrested pedophiles in Japan, ran human intelligence operations against Al Qaeda in Iraq, commanded a unit in Kuwait, and was selected to be the senior bodyguard responsible for all bodyguards ops to one of the most senior Pentagon officials.
When she left active duty, she worked for the world’s largest anti-slavery organization overseeing their Latin American investigations, operations, and law enforcement training focused on child sexual abuse and child sex trafficking.
And all of this as a 5’3” female who looks much younger than she actually is for her title.
Get ready to experience authentic leadership on a whole new level!
We’ll explore:
- The perceived rules of the world that distract us from creating our path.
- How to enjoy the wild ride of life rather than fighting it.
- How to prepare for the bumps along the way when creating your own path without sugar-coating the hard stuff.
