There’s a kind of sadness that doesn’t make noise. It’s not heartbreak, no shattered glasses or tear-streaked cheeks. It’s not grief in its loud, raw form. It doesn’t demand phone calls from friends or time off work. This sadness is subtle, shapeless, and persistent. It lingers in the background like a low hum, almost invisible unless you stop to listen. It’s the sadness of slow goodbyes and silent transitions. Of friendships that faded without a fight, dreams quietly shelved, talents left untended.

Let’s admit it: AI is beginning to freak us out. There’s a quiet disquiet that simmers beneath every new update, every algorithm that paints a picture, writes a story, or mimics a voice.

Women’s Day is just around the corner, and as expected, a flood of ad campaigns will soon hit our screens, glorifying how women are achieving the world. Brands will cash in on the moment, corporations will run token events, and social media will be flooded with celebratory posts. But beyond the rhetoric, where does this leave women, especially women in leadership?

The ability to take true ownership—of a project, an organization, or even a single task—is rare. Rarer still is the ability to do so with grace, empathy, and an unwavering sense of humanity—without treating people as mere instruments of efficiency. Real leadership isn’t about control; it’s about constructing a culture of shared success, free from ego and the hoarding of rewards. One of the greatest challenges in workplaces today is compliance, ess. Why should your team listen to you?
