The Empowerment Paradox is founded upon a critical premise. Joy and suffering are two sides of a single reality. They co-exist. This means, in business, we don’t achieve corporate goals or experience meaningful or radical transformation without experiencing some pain. The adversity or struggles we feel buried by are often the very conditions we need for growth. The premise of the Empowerment Paradox is not that we have to endure hardship, nor that we should seek to attract a life free of it, but that we become our best self – purpose driven, strong, compassionate and wise. The Empowerment Paradox will teach you how to experience this transformation, and enjoy rich and meaningful growth when planted in the soil of adversity.

Learning Objectives:

• How to experience transformation to embrace life
• Move confidently towards a balanced and fulfilled existence
• Enjoy rich and meaningful growth
• Acquiring 7 vital virtues
