We often think of leadership as a series of decisions, strategies, and bottom lines. But if we peel back the layers, we find that leadership — at its core — is actually about the stories we tell.
I am so incredibly honored to announce a special collaboration coming this January 2026. I’ll be joined by the brilliant from Wilder Profit and a very special guest, Laura Patac, right here inside the ThriveLine Circle. Who is Laura Patac?
Laura's journey is a masterclass in resilience and self-discovery. Originally from Romania, she spent 25 years navigating "the corridors of power" in corporate America. Her career took her across seven countries and five continents, serving in high-level leadership positions.
In 2023, after exiting her role as a Global Head of Product, Laura faced that profound question we all eventually ask: "Now what?". Instead of rushing into the next big title, she paused to reconnect with her purpose. This led her back to her "initial superpower" — creativity and writing — culminating in her book, Stories with Purpose, and the founding of Strength Velocity Lab.
What You’ll Receive (Our Gift to You)
Laura believes that every leader is a Unique Value Proposition (UVP). Usually, diving into this deep work comes with a cost, but as part of our January kickoff, the insights from her $1 offer will be shared with our community entirely for free.
In this session, we will explore the four pillars that make you unique:
• Your Origin Story: Understanding the journey that brought you to the present.
• Your Future Story: Defining your unique path to your future milestones.
• Your Top 10 Talents: Identifying your innate human abilities through the CliftonStrengths lens to turn them into superpowers.
• Your Non-Negotiable Values: Uncovering the core principles that drive your decisions.
Laura doesn't just teach storytelling; she teaches you how to use your own story to move from a position of weakness to a position of true empowerment.
Watch this space. We are building something beautiful for you in January. Let’s start the year by finding the meaning behind our own LinkedIn profiles and leading with purpose.
See you inside the Circle.
