Discover Your Hidden Superpowers

After decades of research and hundreds of hours of interviews, Morra Aarons Mele discovered something unexpected:  Many driven and successful people struggle secretly with their mental health.  Maybe anxiety is your most loyal companion and your worst enemy. Maybe you’re neurodivergent, managing ADD or a brain that just works differently, and you’re feeling stuck. Maybe you feel like you need to hide who you really are at work. In fact, every one of us has the version of us that we believe we are supposed to be, and other parts that we keep hidden. We hold ourselves to extremely high expectations and then punish ourselves for not measuring up.  But here’s the TRUTH:  The parts of us we are hiding are our gifts.

This session will help you discover how to turn your perceived leadership weak spots into your greatest source of empathy, authenticity, and impact. The anxieties, the challenges, the emotional sensitivities that you've spent years trying to suppress are actually your competitive advantage - your hidden superpowers!

The key to unlocking your greatest potential as a leader lies in embracing those so-called "weaknesses.” 

Join Morra Aarons Mele, author of the The Anxious Achiever: Turn Your Biggest Fears Into Your Leadership Superpowers and host of the Anxious Achiever podcast for this interactive session.
