Mylena SuttonMylena Sutton - The Leadership Fanatic Who Turns Tough Conversations Into Breakthrough MomentsMylena Sutton believes you are the locomotive. She is the steam. But she will not work any harder on your goals than you do.Known as "The Leadership Fanatic," Mylena is a leadership consultant, growth coach, and the force behind both Pink Boxes Club and Voltage Vista Consulting. She helps leaders and individuals confront the hard conversations they’ve been avoiding so they can finally create the cultures, habits, and lives they say they want.Her throughline is simple: #AllLeadershipIsPersonal. And her life's work is helping people #AlignEverything — because the gap between who you are at work and who you are at home isn't a boundary. It's a blindspot. She doesn't believe there's a version of you that clocks out at 5pm. The same person who avoids hard conversations at home is managing them at work. The same person who subordinates their needs to protect a partner's ego is doing it in the boardroom too. They're just more afraid of getting fired.She does this work in two arenas. Through Voltage Vista Consulting, she works with organizations and leaders navigating workplace dysfunction, conflict, harassment, and the hard conversations they've been avoiding. Through Pink Boxes Club, she works with women — typically in their late 30s through 60s — who are applying those same principles to the lives they're actually living. Same person. Same principles. Different environment.Her message to both: just because someone else has needs — even desperate ones — doesn't mean yours are insignificant. Guilt is a feeling. Feel it. Then do what you need to do anyway. Because guilt that goes unaddressed doesn't stay guilt. It becomes resentment. Whether in he board room or the living room, resentment is the tax you pay for giving people the impression that what you give - sacrifice, love, patience, going to bat for the team - is free.
