Who Holds the Leader - Sherisse Alexander

We ask leaders to hold everyone. We rarely ask who holds them.These last few months have not been easy. In this solo episode, Sherisse tells the truth about a hard stretch — the workload, yes, but more than that, the energetic toll of holding as much as she does. And she names the lonely story she caught herself believing: that when it really counts, a leader carries it alone.This is the honest account of what actually held her. Her Spirit Team, who reminded her the lonely story wasn't true. The channeling that delivered a message she didn't want to hear — you can't pour from an empty cup. The energy work she leaned on to move what had gone stuck and stale in her body. The readings that returned her to clarity when she was too foggy to find it herself. And the reminder those tools pointed her back to: a community of women who know her, who understand that this walk, for all its reward, can feel daunting and lonely — and who make it not-lonely.No tidy resolution. Just the truer answer to the question she started with — one she didn't expect.This is the work Sherisse does through Pavitra Leadership.
