[Verse 1] Sarah thought she had it figured out completely Leading meetings, making calls, feeling so elite But whispers in the hallway told a different story Her team was drowning while she basked in glory One brave soul pulled her aside after the presentation "Your ideas are solid but your execution's breaking" Truth hit harder than she ever expected Time to look inside, get her blind spots detected [Chorus] Mirror, mirror, show me what I cannot see Feedback, journal, mentor - trinity of clarity When I'm soaring high and when I'm crashing down Self-awareness is the crown F-J-M-T, that's the recipe Feedback, Journal, Mentor, Triggers - set me free Mirror, mirror, now I see what's really me [Verse 2] Started scribbling in a notebook every evening "Today I snapped when deadlines had me seething But yesterday I listened and my team was beaming" Patterns emerged from all her daily scheming Monday mornings brought out her commanding side Friday afternoons, her patience would subside After coffee she was sharp as any blade Without it she was scattered and afraid [Chorus] Mirror, mirror, show me what I cannot see Feedback, journal, mentor - trinity of clarity When I'm soaring high and when I'm crashing down Self-awareness is the crown F-J-M-T, that's the recipe Feedback, Journal, Mentor, Triggers - set me free Mirror, mirror, now I see what's really me [Bridge] Found a mentor who had walked this road before "Ask the hard questions, then ask for even more" Regular check-ins with her trusted crew "Tell me straight - what should I stop, start, continue?" No more guessing, no more flying blind Data points mapping territories of her mind [Verse 3] Now she knows her rhythm, knows her danger zones Pressure makes her micromanage and postpone But give her space to think, she's innovative Her morning energy makes her collaborative The journal holds her victories and defeats Her mentor helps her connect the scattered beats [Chorus] Mirror, mirror, show me what I cannot see Feedback, journal, mentor - trinity of clarity When I'm soaring high and when I'm crashing down Self-awareness is the crown F-J-M-T, that's the recipe Feedback, Journal, Mentor, Triggers - set me free Mirror, mirror, now I see what's really me [Outro] Four pillars holding up the leader that I want to be Truth-tellers and reflection, that's my guarantee F-J-M-T, building better me
