Episode Synopsis
Send us a textHave you ever felt like an outsider in a room full of familiar faces? That's the enigma of belonging we tackle with the ever-insightful Fiorenza Rossini, a leadership and career transition coach who masterfully blends personal experience with professional expertise. Join us as we traverse the complex landscape of cultural identity, belonging, and the transitions that shape our sense of self, guided by Fiorenza's poignant reflections from both her Belonging Project podcast and her recent journey into motherhood.With a heartwarming openness, Fiorenza recounts her own metamorphosis from investment banking to coaching, unearthing a community where she feels profoundly connected. This episode peels back the layers of our professional and personal lives, revealing how the active choices we make, propelled by thought leaders like Brene Brown, define our identities. As we navigate Fiorenza's journey, the conversation sheds light on the transformative power of parenthood and belonging and how it reconfigures our place in the world.Yet, the quest for belonging doesn't end at personal fulfillment—it extends into the workplace, where the challenge to create inclusive environments persists despite well-intentioned mental health and hybrid work policies. As we dissect the nuances of feeling seen and valued, we exchange strategies for leaders to cultivate a sense of belonging that resonates deeply within teams. Whether you're seeking your tribe or striving to foster unity in diversity, this dialogue is a treasure trove of practical wisdom and heartfelt insights that will empower you to bridge the gaps in the mosaic of belonging.Links to Fiorenza, her work and resources mentioned:Fiorenza Rossini - WebsiteThe Belonging Project PodcastEY Press Release Sep 6, 2023 Belonging in the WorkplaceSupport the showPlease rate and review with your honest opinion.
