A Moment of YES: November 5th

In this short motivational monologue, the speaker returns from a half‑day workshop in Charleston and reflects on what prevents people from being compassionate, empathetic, and connected leaders—whether in professional, parental, spousal, or friendship roles. He identifies chronic busyness and the accompanying sense of urgency as the primary barrier, explaining how it makes pausing to listen to others feel like an inconvenience. He urges listeners to examine their own busyness, consider what type of busyness is obstructing their presence, and deliberately chip away at it by reprioritising time for connection as they head into the weekend. The talk ends with a supportive call to action, encouraging the audience to use this “moment of yes” to foster more intentional, compassionate engagement.
