🗣QUOTE:   “When you have leaders who are willing to have the hard conversation and still elevate people — that’s where real growth happens.” - Laura Templeton



Fergie’s Top 5+ Knowledge Nuggets and Take-Aways:

  1. 🔍 Lead with transparency — in work and life. Open communication builds real trust, not just authority.
  2. 🚀 Never stop improving. Progress is a lifestyle, not a once-a-year goal.
  3. 🔥 Speak up before the fire starts. Self-leadership means spotting the warning signs early.
  4. 🧠 Micromanaging yourself is just perfectionism in disguise. Go deeper — what’s really going on?
  5. 🚪 Saying “my door is open” isn’t enough. Show people they’re safe to walk through it.
  6. 🤝 Asking for help isn’t weakness — it’s wisdom. Drop the ego and lean into support.
