This episode is a pretty vulnerable one as I cover some of my journey with shadow work, the parenting mistakes I’ve made along the way, and the existential crisis that led me onto the path I am now walking today.

The hardest word… or the hardest-working word?
Do you find it hard to say ‘Sorry’?
When was the last time you said it? When was the last time you said it to someone at work?
Two little words that make a big difference
When I first started writing this newsletter, I wanted to make sure that it resonated with you and that it would help to make a difference in the way you work and lead. At first it was a little like writing into an abyss…
It’s a jungle out there
If you stand back a moment, on any given day, on any floor in a large organisation, you will witness a somewhat unusual phenomenon take place.
I am leader, hear me roar
IF you want to reach a goal THEN you must have a plan
Sometimes we all run out of willpower and grit – that’s what makes us human.
Got grit?
If there’s one thing my clients wish I could ‘wave a magic wand’ and give them, it’s discipline. Grit.

Once upon a time
We all started with a clean slate. Then, since earliest childhood, we’ve developed stories to make sense of our lives.
What’s your emotional GPS telling you?
