Ep. #100. How to Start Journalling as a Tool for Leadership Growth

Welcome to the 100th episode of The Fulfilled Leader! In this heartfelt milestone episode, Jean Balfour reflects on the journey that began in December 2021 with Making Sense of Work and evolved into The Fulfilled Leader. 

Jean shares three powerful lessons she's learned through podcasting and how her long-standing journalling practice has not only sustained the show, but also shaped her career and personal growth. This episode is part memoir, part masterclass in personal leadership tools, and a rich encouragement for anyone navigating self-doubt, lack of feedback, or the challenge of staying consistent.
