INDIANAPOLIS (PRWEB) September 21, 2022

Attending senior training leadership events was second nature for Jennie Lopez, an associate vice president for global talent acquisition for a major pharmaceutical manufacturing company and professional dancer. What made one training particularly memorable was an icebreaker exercise that led her draw a caricature of herself denoting her conservative corporate side and her colorful dancer persona with a high ponytail.

Looking at the ponytail, she thought of it as a unicorns horn. That was the catalyst and it opened the door to her delivering a motivating company speech, which eventually led to creating her own personal brand and messaging, and finally to becoming an author celebrating the launch of her new book called Intentional Unicorn: Bring your authentic self to thrive in life and career" published by Fig Factor Media.

The reality is that for the longest time I really thought I was that unicorn that was sticking out for the wrong reasons, explained Lopez, originally from Puerto Rico and has lived in Indianapolis since 2000. I tried to hide the horn, minimize it, and knock it down. However, once I realized that the horn was my superpower, what made me ME, it was my personal competitive advantage. I realized that the magic of meaningful success relies on embracing and leading with your authenticity. We must do this to build a fruitful and diverse reality everywhere we go instead of building the same type of professionals and leaders. All of us are unicornsWe must be intentional with it!

Through humor, honesty, and love, Lopez shares with readers her journey from living in Puerto Rico, attending grad school in the US, growing as an associate vice president in the corporate world, and starting her own business. In parallel, she developed a dancing and fitness career that includes NFL cheerleading and being a Zumba international presenter.

In addition, she also shares tools and best intentional practices such as maximizing time, protecting and nurturing mindset, discouraging impostor syndrome, and understanding success and how to drive it.

One of the topicsunderstanding superpowersis important because knowing them allows people to identify, develop and grow them as beneficial tools for life.

"When you lead with your superpowers, you lead with authenticity, confidence, and purpose, Lopez said. You may have many strengths and skills, but what are your top one or two skills? That one that is so powerful becomes the reason people want you to work with them. When you are aware and confident of your superpowers, then you can draft your journey with meaning where you can serve and lead at your best.

Lopez offers distinct and specific action steps for people to activate their objectives.

The book uses a framework that I have learned for any goals we set for ourselves, she said. We start with a DECISION, then we COMMIT, TAKE ACTION, ADAPT, INVEST, CREATE, AMPLIFY, so we can SHOW THE WORLD.

Intentional Unicorn is available on Amazon.
