How living without purpose can be dangerous for Women in Leadership? Read this article to unlock some tips to live life fully as a leader, shared by Womenlines guest influencer, leadership coach Ela Staniak Leaupepe from Australia-
You may be at risk of serious consequences if you don’t find your purpose personally and professionally
We have a duty of finding clarity in purpose and direction. Why?
Because when we are lost, out of lack of awareness, we often make decisions which affect our future irreversibly.
Our choices affect our loved ones, our friends, and our professional networks.
Not to mention that it comes close to impossible to achieve excellence in leadership and high performance without having certainty of what our final destination looks like.
I certainly learned my lessons the hard way. In the past whenever I felt like I wasn’t aligned with my decisions or actions, whenever I didn’t listen to my intuition, the outcomes I would create had no meaning. Some of those outcomes weren’t even reflecting my character. I guess some would call them mistakes. I call them lessons.
Whenever I mindlessly acted out of fear, pressure or uncertainty I often sacrificed my values. This on its own drove me to tons of self-sabotaging behaviours in my career, my health and my relationships. My life reflected one phrase for over a decade and that is “Sex, drugs and rock’n’roll!”
In my professional career, I spent over a decade studying human physiology, behavioural science, motivation, and emotional intelligence. Today, specialising in women’s leadership and performance I am privileged to listen to clients’ untold, vulnerable stories of pain, hardship, disempowerment, joy, success, fulfilment and happiness.
Now I understand those good people make mistakes, and that doesn’t make them bad people. Doing good things doesn’t make us good people either – a great phrase I heard from a fabulous friend of mine – Gary Doherty, owner of THiNK Network, TEDx Curator and TEDx Speaker.
What is the mystery behind making mistakes? Why do we do the wrong thing, knowing that it is wrong? The key to understanding behavioural psychology is knowing that deep unconscious behavioural drivers are stronger than any logical explanation.
Values are just one type of the unconscious drivers of behaviour.
People sacrifice their values in order, to fulfil their basic human needs of certainty, variety, significance, love & connection (belonging), growth and contribution.
When we give in to the impulse, when we give our focus and intention to what feels like an invisible force which provides us with a sense of temporary power, satisfaction or it gives us a sense of relief, we are unconsciously running either towards or away from a greater motivator.
I would love to present you THREE biggest dangers of lack of purpose:
1. MENTAL HEALTH-
Addictions are formed when searching for greater satisfaction or when running away from deep discomfort. We are talking about emotional, psychological and physical dependencies. Computer games, cable TV, social media, drama seeking, anger, substance abuse, sex, gambling, excessive exercise, food or any form of extremism in actions.
2. FINANCIAL PROBLEMS
Investing in meaningless objects provides us with temporary external happiness or an elusive sense of SIGNIFICANCE. The size of your house or the price tag attached to your car won’t ignite INTERNAL happiness. We tend to boost our confidence levels by spending
3. EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENCE
When we are lost, we revert to default emotions of anger, sadness, fear, hurt, guilt and with that, we resort to default behaviours – no productivity or positive outcomes are born here.
SOLUTIONS:
1. Invest your resources into personal development.
2. Practise vulnerability in conversations instead of hiding behind your ego
3. Find healthy fulfilling aspects of your career and personal life
Dedicate your life to finding your true passion and purpose.
Create your own destiny.
Be in charge of your results.
You are worth it.
“Your first duty is to love, honour and value yourself. Anything else comes secondary”
Much Love,

Womenlines takes pleasure to share an inspirational journey of Smita Bharti, President of Sakshi-a rights-based NGO! If you are facing challenges in life, get a big dose of motivation from Smita Bharti who has proved that there is so much to do in life and that too for others who are vulnerable and need help-
Our stories don’t always start at birth. Similarly, Smita’s story began one fine morning when she walked out of her abusive marriage holding the hands of her two children with no plan in mind, into nothingness.
In the society we live in, girls are always taught that marriage is the ultimate goal of their lives. That day in 1995 when Smita walked out of her marriage she broke this social construct that has been forced down women’s throats. That’s when her story of self-discovery and acceptance began. But even after everything she has survived, when you ask her if she would choose a different life for herself, she would stop and tell you that she has pondered about this many times and has finally realized that she wouldn’t have chosen a different life but if she had the experiences and knowledge that she has now she would have definitely done things differently. Her experiences and all the turning points of her life have transformed her into the person she is today and finally, at the age of 55, Smita has grown to love who she is.
Smita Bharti, recipient of Karmaveer Puraskar for Social Change, a Rotary World Peace Fellow, a Special Fellow WISCOMP, Senior Fellow Literature, KK Birla Foundation, is the Executive Director and President of Sakshi, a rights-based NGO. She is also a co-founder of Hungry Heart Festival, a theatre society focused on theatre for social change. She started working with Sakshi almost two decades ago as a theatre practitioner, preparing a performance with women who had survived third-degree domestic violence. And now she is directing the vision, charting the mission, crafting the action, building on the legacy that is Sakshi, today. Sakshi is a capacity-building organization established in 1992. Being a pioneer in working against Sexual Harassment and Child Sexual Abuse in India, Sakshi is now focused on The Rakshin Project, envisioning a world free of child sexual abuse.
Survivors of violence, often understand the need to create an environment where people are cherished and celebrated. And Smita has turned that dream into a reality by sharing that dream with numerous others. She believes in people, nudges them towards excellence and then watches them emerge successful with total confidence in them.
With a career spanning over three decades in Theatre and Social Art Interventions for Behavior change. Through research, training, workshops, performances, campaigns, and publications, Smita works extensively and intensively with women and adolescents in difficult and challenging circumstances, in prisons with victims under trial, with survivors in situations of domestic violence, sexual abuse, and physically and mentally challenged individuals. She has substantial experience as a senior facilitator for workshops/training/capacity building with groups across social strata ranging from the judiciary to under trials, corporate to grass-root communities. She has a strong network in many fields and skills that contribute to the analytical evaluation of options and strategic action for sustainable impact.
As the Executive Director of Sakshi, she is focused on spearheading a youth-led movement to create a social tipping point to Stop Child Sexual Abuse. Whereas on a personal level, she makes skilful use of a range of media, including film, theatre, visual art, oral narratives, and literature to create and deliver immersive experiential learning programs. These sessions are interactive and participative and require the participants to engage with the module using interactive and creative tools. Her quest is to explore the structural hierarchies and taboos, traumas, and wounded psyches within people, and draw workshop participants into a journey of co-exploration. She works with the aim to facilitate students to ask questions so that they can go on to re-define `safety’ and `security’ for themselves. This will aid them in breaking out of vicious circles of fear and choicelessness, and actively seek to transform their lives.
She thrives on the transformative and restorative justice that she has imbibed for herself, and looks to create the same for others through her work. She is driven towards keeping children safe from sexual abuse. Educating youth to take charge, helping them become accountable and practice their right to Equality which helps them create and energize preventive mechanisms to keep children and themselves safe from sexual abuse. It is an activity that carries the potential of stigma. But she is willing to take the risk of being branded in whichever language the society chooses to brand her. Today her brand is Equality. She will not let the sense of shame, helplessness, hesitation, and fear, damage the right to equality of the 50 per cent of children in this country. She will not stop till a single child is clutching thin air trying to understand the sexual abuse s/he is being subjected to. She has willed to practice her right to equality. Everyday!

Womenlines takes pleasure to welcome Dr Sumiran Passey, MD (Sports Medicine), Director and Medical Doctor, Aktivhealth, New Delhi, India, as a Guest Influencer for Fitness segment at Womenlines! In this informative article, Dr Passey is sharing about ergonomic benefits of a standing desk and what you have to take care while using it-
Workstation ergonomics is the new fad in establishing a healthy work environment. Companies focus on increasing the efficiency of employees by promoting health and wellness. “Sitting is the new smoking” was promoted by many healthcare individuals to reduce the sitting hours, which is a well-established public health concern. A sedentary lifestyle associated with prolonged office-based sitting has been liked to an increase in morbidity, obesity, and chronic cardiometabolic diseases.
Work from home with extended work hours has spiked the queues of low back and neck pain cases with physicians and physical therapists. Along with numerous musculoskeletal issues, psychological sanity has taken a great toll too. Past researchers have reported a high incidence of depression and anxiety, with prolonged sitting and a sedentary lifestyle.
Sit-stand computer-based workstations are been extensively used and are a good ergonomic change to overcome the musculoskeletal issues.
The long term use of sit-stand workstations has shown significant improvement in cardiometabolic parameters, such as improved glucose levels, increased HDL and reduced cholesterol levels as well as homeostatic balanced blood pressure. Those who have experienced long hours of sit-stand variations reported improved posture and significant core stability. The psychological benefits are still been studied, but changes in depression and anxiety scores are encouraging. A study in an elementary school in the United States of America has shown high mean energy expenditure using a standing desk among children.
Ergonomics of a standing workstation
· Forward-facing posture
· Desk height should be below elbow height, to support forearms while you use a keyboard. (Wrist straight, hands at or below elbow)
· Arms should be close to Your body
· Monitor should be such positioned that you do not arch your head and neck and your eyes should be at top of the screen and placed at least at arm’s length away from you.
· Those who use bifocals, lower the monitor by just a few inches for better viewing.
· Change your complete orientation if using multiple screens so that the prolonged stress to neck muscles is reduced.
· Extensive phone users should avoid cradling the phone between your head and neck.
How to switch to a sit-stand workstation.
· Our body needs frequent postural change to avoid fatigue and a permanent slouch.
· Whenever you feel fatigued, standing for short periods (~10 minutes every office hour)
· Increase standing time gradually till you hit your comfort zone.
· After acclimatization switch between sitting and standing more frequently.
So here are a few things you can do right at your desk
Stretch and Rotate the neck
Bend your neck to try and touch your ear to your shoulder, but make sure you don’t touch the two. Hold for a few seconds; repeat for the other side.
Turn the Torso
Towards your right and left, each time holding it for a few seconds.
Stretch
Your hands interlaced, reach for the ceiling, stretch your body upwards.
Extending your right hand, bending it over your head to the left, and then stretch.
Hold for a bit and then switch sides.
Bend over your knee or Hug your knees
By bringing them to your chest and grasp both your ankles; bend your head between your knees and hold for a bit.
Stretch the chest
Take both your hands to the back and grasp, sit up straight and hold for a10 seconds.
Tucking your tummy and squeezing gluts.
The “ideal” way to stand is with your feet forward instead of flared out, actively try to “screw” your feet into the ground, glutes and abs slightly contracted, and shoulders externally rotated
To maintain a good standing posture, muscle fatigue should be overcome by maintaining a good base of support and balance as well as by strengthening the spinal muscles around the trunk (core and gluteal muscles). Stabilization exercises should always be gradually progressive and if required supervised. These could later be incorporated even while standing along with breathing exercises.
Remember good footwear (low heeled with comfortable cushioning or customized insoles) plays an equally important role in maintaining a good standing posture.
Long-standing also comes with many vascular issues involving lower limbs and affects those with underlying cardiovascular conditions, so take rest, stretch and sit at intervals. Weigh the benefits of standing over prolonged sitting and sedentary lifestyle at work.
