The Hoffman Podcast S10e14: Diana C. Toman – A Heart-Driven Badass
Diana C. Toman is a global legal and strategy consultant. She’s also a heart-driven badass – the mantra she coined during her week at the Hoffman Process.
For much of Diana’s career, she hid her softness and kindness, fearing she’d be seen as weak. She would hide her generous heart at work, fearing she would be seen as soft in her role at work. But because she is generous and caring, she would continue to act on her generosity outside of work as long as the recipients kept it quiet.
Misalignment causes tension and takes its toll. This is why Diana came to the Process. During her week there, Diana was able to claim her softness and marry it with her badass business acumen. What a powerful combination!
The Process, though, brought more healing into Diana’s life. Her husband has done the Process, and together they’ve completed the Hoffman Couples Retreat. Through this work and using the tools regularly, they’ve come through a rough time, and out the other side of a rough time, they are closer and better able to navigate the life challenges they face together.
We hope you enjoy this powerful episode with Diana and Sadie.
