Rita Johansen is a conservation consultant who happily reminds people of the intricate relationship between man and nature, and the value of honing that relationship. She runs a food and beverage company that offers a healthy variety of refreshments and condiments that focus on replenishing probiotics and boosting immunity. In this episode, she joins us to share the joys of leadership in its three spheres: leading ourselves, leading our teams, and leading our businesses

Today, Rita joins me to share her story. She explains how events from her childhood brought her to where she is today, and she discusses self-improvement as garnering those things that spark a flame in you. She stresses the importance of doing what you love. We talk about why everyone is a leader, and she notes that leadership is not a magical, one-size-fits-all formula. She observes the power of maximizing the skills of each individual, she links motherhood to professional leadership, and she explains why a leader needs to be trusting.

“Those things that spark a flame in you, those things that give you joy--they’re there for a reason.”
