Episode 189 Why are we meeting? 26:08

il y a 10 hours26:08

26:08

We’ve all left meetings wondering - ‘ What was the point of that? ’ This week, I share 10 practical strategies for making meetings efficient, engaging, and worthwhile. I also explore how meetings are culture in action , the power of questions over statements , and why a meeting without psychological safety is a performance, not a conversation. And if you’ve never heard of ‘the meeting within the meeting, ’ the unspoken dynamics that tell you everything about leadership and team health, you’ll want to tune in.…

Episode 188 Change, fear and the power of feeling safe 24:23

il y a environ 7 jours24:23

24:23

Change isn’t just a strategic challenge, it’s an emotional one. This week I’m exploring why so many change initiatives fail before they even begin, namely because of the absence of psychological safety. I’ll also look at the emotional barriers to change, the common pitfalls to avoid, and how leaders can create environments where growth feels safe. I’ll go beyond the workplace too, because personal change also needs safety. As I say in the episode- s elf-compassion is the psychological safety of personal change. So if you’re navigating change, within your team or in your own life, this is an episode I’m sure you’ll find worthwhile.…

Episode 187 Resilience - from 'why me' to 'let me' 24:41

il y a environ 14 jours24:41

24:41

This week I’m exploring the topic of resilience, not as an heroic soundtrack moment, but as a soft, steady strength, a whisper that helps us move from ‘why me’ to ‘let me.’ We’ll look at how resilience helps us navigate uncertain times and why it’s less about bouncing back and more about recalculating, like your inner GPS when life takes an unexpected turn. I share practical tips for building resilience in everyday life. There’s many reflection questions to ponder too, including ‘when was the last time I surprised myself with my own resilience?’ Because chances are you already have!…

Episode 185 I met my younger self for coffee 9:25

il y a environ 28 jours9:25

9:25

This week’s episode was inspired by a beautiful poem ‘ I met my younger self for coffee at 10.15’ by Jennae Cecelia. I imagine sitting down with my 18-year-old self, the one just out of school, starting his first job and full of questions. It began as a private journaling exercise, but the more I wrote, the more I felt it might resonate with others. It’s a reflection on choices, resilience, and self-acceptance, an internal conversation that many of us rarely pause to have. Let it be a reminder that sometimes the person we most need to hear from is ourselves.…

Episode 184 Is it confidence you're lacking - or permission? 17:03

il y a 5 weeks17:03

17:03

We often think we need confidence before we can act, to speak up, to take a risk, to try something new. But what if it’s not confidence we’re lacking. What if it’s permission? This week, I look at how we’ve been conditioned to seek permission from others, but how real change happens when we stop waiting for approval, and start giving ourselves permission to begin. I also delve into the quiet but powerful role of willingness, the force that precedes courage. Willingness is what nudges us forward when confidence hasn’t yet arrived. I also explore what it means to move from inner waiting to inner agency and how small acts of bravery can stretch our comfort zones and shift our lives.…

Episode 183 Know thyself - cultivating self-awareness 26:10

il y a 6 weeks26:10

26:10

This week, I’m unpacking self-awareness not just as a concept, but as a practice. I explore how self-awareness is the foundation of emotional intelligence and I make the distinction between the small ‘s’ self and the capital ‘S’ Self and how self-awareness helps us move beyond ego and reconnect with our authentic nature. And of course I share ways to help you enhance your levels of self-awareness. It’s said that ignorance is bliss, but is it really? True growth begins the moment we step out of autopilot and start seeing ourselves clearly. Because the more you know yourself, the more power you have to shape your life with intention.…

Episode 182 The power of doing nothing 26:37

il y a 7 weeks26:37

26:37

What if the key to greater clarity, creativity, and leadership isn’t doing more, but doing less? In our fast-paced world, we glorify the grind, chasing the next goal and filling every moment with activity or distraction. But what if the real breakthroughs happen in the gaps, in the space where we allow new ideas to emerge? This week, I look at why stillness isn’t laziness, but a strategy for better decision-making and deeper insights. I take you through the different types of rest we all need but rarely prioritise and I invite you to participate in a short experiment that I call “embracing the pause”. If you’ve ever felt guilty for slowing down, this episode is for you.…

Episode 181 Will we ever break free from power-based leadership? 29:03

il y a 8 weeks29:03

29:03

We’re all familiar with power-based leadership, where authority comes from titles and roles. But what about authentic leadership that is grounded in integrity, and character? This week, I explore the difference between role-based power and human-centred leadership. I look at why we seek certainty in times of crisis and how leading with authenticity fosters trust, inspires growth, and creates lasting impact especially in times of uncertainty.…

I’m kicking off this 6th series of my podcast with a first. I’m welcoming back one of my first ever guests, Nichola Flood, also known as The Queen of Health. Nichola shares valuable insights on how she overcame recent health challenges that prompted her to reassess her approach to work.

I've always loved the idea of starting afresh and January is a great time to refocus on what’s important. In this special New Year episode, I share 10 powerful and slightly unusual questions to help you set some meaningful intentions and goals for the year ahead.

In this week’s episode, the last in the current series, I share 20 powerful questions that have the themes of gratitude and completion running through them. Contemplating these questions has become something of a ritual for me and this year, not only do I pose the questions, I also share my own answers to them. My invitation to you is to grab a pen and notebook, and perhaps a mug of something warm, and gift yourself an opportunity to reflect on the last 12 months, to savour on the highs and take the learning from the lows.…

There should be something for everyone - biographies, new novels, classics, and self-help. I also speak about a book with a strong family connection, a true crime book written by my brother!…
