Your next leadership breakthrough begins here. This groundbreaking perspective on workplace dynamic and emotional patterns became the central idea behind CEO.

When Sylvia Lafair founded Creative Energy Options, it began as a way to teach others how to foster creative energy for better workplace associations and career success. Drawing on her experience working with families and teams, Sylvia discovered that many of the patterns pulled into workplace relationships reflected those used to cope with family conflict. Now, Sylvia uses her classes and program

s to encourage clients to search for hidden emotional mechanisms in the workplace to discover the reasons behind reactions to misunderstanding, conflict, and certain types of leadership styles. Through her use of humor, suspense, understanding, and insight, she instills in others an attitude of success-minded living. Sometimes, the key to productivity is trusted change management. With the help of Creative Energy Options, your workplace will feel equally empowered and satisfied.

AI can process information. Technology can automate tasks.

But self-awareness, connection, empathy, and the ability to truly see the people around you? Those are deeply human, and they’re becoming more valuable every day.

That’s the heart of my upcoming book, 𝙂𝙇𝙄𝙈𝙈𝙀𝙍𝙎 𝙖𝙩 𝙒𝙤𝙧𝙠: 𝙏𝙝𝙚 𝙎𝙚𝙡𝙛-𝘼𝙬𝙖𝙧𝙚 𝙇𝙚𝙖𝙙𝙚𝙧’𝙨 𝘼𝙙𝙫𝙖𝙣𝙩𝙖𝙜𝙚.

🔑 “𝐓𝐡𝐚𝐭’𝐬 𝐣𝐮𝐬𝐭 𝐡𝐨𝐰 𝐈 𝐚𝐦.”

How often do we use those five words to explain a behavior we’ve stopped questioning?

A strength used consciously is an asset. A strength used automatically can become a liability.

The next time you hear yourself say, “That’s just how I am,” try asking: “When did I learn that this was how I needed to be?”

That question creates something powerful: 𝗰𝗵𝗼𝗶𝗰𝗲.

When your body is settled, your decisions become clearer. Your reactions slow down. You can stay grounded even when the room gets tense or uncertain.

That’s the real power of presence: not standing still, but staying centered while everything around you is moving.

A settled body creates a steadier leader.

Dolly Parton never tried to cover up her past. She embraced her Tennessee roots, honored her father’s illiteracy struggles, and transformed his inability to read into something extraordinary: the Imagination Library, which has put hundreds of millions of books into children’s hands.

Authentic leadership isn’t about creating a perfect image. It’s about becoming self-aware enough to recognize your patterns, own your story, and transform what you’ve been given into something meaningful.

You learned how to respond to conflict. How to earn approval. How to protect yourself. How to stay safe.

Those patterns may have served you once, but leadership requires noticing when an old survival strategy is no longer serving your success.

Self-awareness gives you the space to pause, recognize the pattern, and choose a different response.

Think again.

As adults, we simply find better hiding places behind perfectionism, busy schedules, sarcasm, people-pleasing, control, or phrases like, “I’m fine.” Our patterns have become our new favorite hiding spot.

And those patterns don’t disappear when we walk into the workplace, either. They show up when we're under stress and take over our relationships, decision-making, and leadership.

The first step isn’t fixing yourself. It’s noticing the pattern.

✨ At 22, Oprah Winfrey was removed from the evening news desk because the very quality that made her different didn’t fit the role.

But when she eventually moved into her new role, something clicked. She could connect. Ask questions. Be curious. Be herself.

The lesson? Not every rejection means you need to try harder. Sometimes it’s a GLIMMER telling you to stop abandoning what makes you uniquely effective.

Ask yourself: 𝗜𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗲𝘅𝗽𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲 𝗮𝘀𝗸𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗺𝗲 𝘁𝗼 𝗰𝗵𝗮𝗻𝗴𝗲 𝗮 𝗽𝗮𝘁𝘁𝗲𝗿𝗻—𝗼𝗿 𝘀𝘁𝗼𝗽 𝗵𝗶𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗮𝗻 𝗶𝗺𝗽𝗼𝗿𝘁𝗮𝗻𝘁 𝗽𝗮𝗿𝘁 𝗼𝗳 𝘄𝗵𝗼 𝗜 𝗮𝗺?

When you become aware of an old pattern and choose a different response, you don’t just change your own experience. You create a new possibility for the people around you, too.

I’ve seen this again and again in my work with leaders: when one person changes how they show up, it gives others permission to do the same.

“Every transformed pattern creates possibility for someone else.”

That’s one of the ideas I explore in my upcoming book, "GLIMMERS at WORK: The Self-Aware Leader’s Advantage," about the power of self-awareness to transform how you lead, connect, and create change at work.

Coming this fall. ✨
