Self-leadership.
More conscious choice.

The Practice of Self-Leadership & Emotional Mastery with Patty Purpur de Vries.

THE SHORT VERSION

The Practice of Self-Leadership & Emotional Mastery

Leadership shows up in everyday moments: how we respond to pressure, handle a difficult conversation, or make a choice when old habits take over. This course makes room to notice those patterns and practice a more intentional response.
