PRESIDENT'S
Message |
| |
 Dear
Reader,
I was recently asked what I thought it takes
to be a great leader. In fact, more
specifically, the question was, “does
leadership come naturally, or can it be
learned?”
So in response to this question, I decided
to offer up my opinion on the qualities I
thought great leaders possess. For some,
these may be qualities that they naturally
possess, so this would make them natural
born leaders. For others who are thrust into
leadership positions, but don’t possess
these qualities, they would need to learn
them to succeed in their position.
Those naturally born with leadership
qualities are looked upon as leaders by
those that know them, even if they don’t
officially hold a leadership position in
their community or organization. Within
their community, they are the “go to” person
when someone needs to talk, or needs
guidance or advice. They are the person that
everyone trusts to do the right thing, or to
make decisions that serve the greater good.
They are the person that everyone looks up
to and respects.
So what exactly are these qualities I feel
that make great leaders?

 Julie
Chiu
I
had a history of weight fluctuations due to
constant yo-yo dieting and a dysfunctional
relationship with food since childhood. In a
short period of time and soon after arriving
to HK I gained 16 lbs (7.3 kg). This
initiated a quest for a healthy weight loss
solution. I didn’t want to go on another
restrictive ‘diet’ only to regain the weight
later on. I also noticed it was getting
harder and harder to lose weight and easier
to gain it all back which highlighted the
importance of finding a consistent long term
solution. Thanks to a friend, I was
introduced to “mindful eating” (AKA
intuitive eating) and the rest is history.
After losing weight gradually and healthily
using Am I Hungry?® mindful eating
principles, I soon became a licensed Am I
Hungry?® weight management facilitator. My
healthcare experience as a registered nurse
(RN), the joy of helping people, and the
love for learning led me to a path of health
coaching. Now, I specialize in coaching
others who struggle with their weight and
helping them create a healthier relationship
with food, mind and body.
