Inspiring Leadership Through an Empowered Mindset By Vered Ohanna

Being a leader in your own business can sometimes push you a bit outside of your comfort zone. It’s not just about running a business; it’s about breaking through limits of what you have known to date. So, how can we – women in business – shape a mindset that boosts our leadership journey?

The answer is in having an empowered mindset. Instead of trying to figure out what everyone else is doing and working accordingly, we need to ask ourselves, “What would I love?” It’s about leading with purpose and being true to ourselves, making choices that match our own vision, and being bold to make that vision our reality.

Start by thinking deeply. What do you truly want for your business? What added value do you want to bring to your clients and team? Is it creating a friendly workplace? Then, go for it! Make every decision about creating a supportive and friendly vibe. Let that drive your decisions, make it a place where everyone’s ideas matter. Keep learning and trying new things to keep things fresh.

The change is huge. Businesses led by authentic and innovative women aren’t just successful—they become as unique as your thumbprint. Clients notice and love your authentic leadership and the added value you bring. Teams do amazing things in a space where everyone feels heard, and clients are happy to pay premium prices to get such a service. This powerful mindset takes your business not just through the hard times, but toward breaking barriers and finding real happiness within (and beyond) your business.

Now, imagine having a guide on this journey—someone who understands your unique challenges, which helps you connect with what you truly love, and makes your vision even bigger than you thought possible. A knowledgeable guide encourages you to dig deep, discover your true aspirations, your true leadership style, and align your business choices with your values and passion. Having the right person as your guide will help you develop the empowered mindset that will become a practical tool that enhances your leadership and performance.

Take Lisa for example. She owns a small graphic design business. Instead of copying the usual cold and competitive vibe, she asked herself, “What would I love?” Her answer was to create a workplace where everyone feels valued. She made decisions like having regular team lunches and encouraging everyone to share ideas. The result? Her business isn’t just known for great designs; it’s also famous for her warm leadership and the brilliant creativity that is embraced there. Her clients love the unique creativity that comes as a result of the team’s artistic collaboration, and her business thrives with premium prices that her clients are happy to pay.

In the end, it’s not just about being the leader of your business, it’s about being an inspiring leader with a powerful mindset, that is nurtured by the right support. It’s all about creating a bright future where businesswomen stand out, thrive, and inspire others to do the same.
