SILE ON MENTAL HEALTH AND BALANCE

Sile maintains her mental health and work-life balance by integrating therapy, coaching, and regular physical activity into her routine. Her strategies include morning walks and meaningful conversations, which help her manage stress and maintain a positive outlook. She emphasizes the importance of being 'messy, human, and flawed' as essential to her leadership approach, allowing her to connect authentically with her team and promote a healthy work culture.

While not a parent, Sile's role as an aunt significantly shapes her leadership style. She considers the impact of her decisions on the next generation, striving to leave a world that is better for her nieces and nephews. This perspective informs her empathetic and future-oriented leadership approach, ensuring she leads with a sense of responsibility and foresight, aiming to set a positive example for both her family and her professional team.
