The other day on a hike, I came across a lake full of lotus blooms. Stunning.

And a reminder: beauty doesnโ€™t emerge in spite of the mudโ€”it grows because of it.

Leadership and growth work the same way.

Challenges (the โ€œmudโ€) may feel murky, unclear, or heavy.

But itโ€™s in those moments that ๐—ฟ๐—ฒ๐˜€๐—ถ๐—น๐—ถ๐—ฒ๐—ป๐—ฐ๐—ฒ, ๐—ฐ๐—น๐—ฎ๐—ฟ๐—ถ๐˜๐˜†, and ๐—ฐ๐—ผ๐˜‚๐—ฟ๐—ฎ๐—ด๐—ฒ are forged.

With time, care, and persistence, that muddy work becomes the foundation for something beautiful and lasting.

Great leaders donโ€™t avoid the mud. They ๐˜ด๐˜ต๐˜ฆ๐˜ฑ ๐˜ช๐˜ฏ๐˜ต๐˜ฐ ๐˜ช๐˜ตโ€”knowing itโ€™s what makes their team stronger and what brings growth to life.
