Send us a text Is feminine leadership the key to our future? When it comes to co-creating a more sustainable and just future, it’s clear we need to do something different. We know that business as usual is broken, but what exactly are we transitioning into? What does the leadership of the future look like? This is exactly what Klementina Karol and I explore in this episode of Living Leaders. Making the transition from conventional business practices to a more feminine, cyclical and regenerati...

Send us a text Humans are in a moment of existential crisis and loneliness. According to Dr. Mills, we are currently experiencing a New Human Renaissance. Old systems and industries are dying. We can see that the emperor has no clothes, and it’s time to choose new sets of values and agreements globally to create a better future. We likely won’t be able to do that without healing our broken culture and leveraging AI to help us. In this episode: The disruptive power of truth-s...
Send us a text If you've been on a journey of personal transformation, you know that transformation is not a painless process... Doing the deep inner work can bring us to our knees. Breaking away from beliefs that no longer serve us can feel like we ourselves are breaking. But as special guest Amanda Kate says in today's episode, she'd rather go through the transformation than give up the (often challenging) path of healing. There is so much to be gained when we do this work - authenti...
Send us a text How do we tap into our unique genius so we can live a life of purpose? If we are not living a life that is authentic to us, we lose access to our own vitality and creativity. There are many “templates” out there for what success should look like… but unless we choose to live by our own template, we might be living by someone else’s rules and never truly knowing ourselves. This is exactly what Kevin Kepple helps people uncover. Inside this episode, you will learn: ...
Send us a text What if sharing the authentic story actually got us better results? What if being real was more important than being perfect? Jason Cercone joins me on the show today for a conversation about brand authenticity and storytelling. Although imposter syndrome might keep us too afraid to share the good, bad, and ugly, doesn't it also make us human? The journey to hitting our goals or building a platform like a podcast (which happens to be Jason's speciality), is not linear... ...
Send us a text What can executives and business owners learn from the world of end-of-life care? We’re about to find out, from today’s guest, Jan Booth, who happens to be a palliative care nurse and seasoned death doula. Loss and change are an inevitable part of the human journey. Each time we change jobs or relationships or homes, there is a “death” and a grieving of what once was. We mourn who we used to be, and the loss of opportunities we didn’t take. Death is all around us. ...
Send us a text What does the future of community, governance and finance look like? Humanity is a massive evolutionary moment across all systems. Many of our systems are failing, and we’re seeing the harmful limitations of our dominant western culture play out on a global scale. When you layer in climate change and biodiversity loss, the future starts to look pretty grim… However, humanity is adapting and prototyping new ways of being and doing, all around the globe. Today’s guest, Ma...
Send us a text Leaders today have an opportunity to stop cycles of harm and heal patterns of multigenerational trauma. Leadership today can be very reactive. Our work cultures often don’t leave much room for us to be human, and so we find ourselves living predominantly in the logic mind, rather than in our physical or emotional bodies. Greg works at the intersection of leadership and healing. He believes that “to be a leader is to be a vessel of healing.” And this starts with self...

He has found himself in the most acutely stressful and high pressure scenarios that one can imagine. Today, Mark Ashby assists multinatio...
Send us a text What happens when we've built everything we thought we wanted, but still aren't happy? We have the successful career, the house, the family... but we're still missing something... our true selves. When we stay in the addiction cycles of "busyness" and perfection, we don't have time or space to reflect on what truly makes us happy and fulfilled. We continue in the momentum of the life we've created, doing what we think we "should" do. Dmitria's story invites us into a ...
Send us a text Karyn Seitz is known as The Happiness Mentor. What is happiness? And what is preventing us from being fully happy? Like many of us, Karyn was chasing success externally, and outsourcing her happiness to others. As she did, the void and imposter syndrome got bigger. Despite the spiritual seeking and achievements, she still didn’t feel like she was “enough.” That is, until she realized this truth. SHE was the problem…and therefore the solution. In this episo...

Send us a text Initiation is the process of stepping into a new version of oneself. It often involves stepping into the unknown and leaving behind a version of self that you can’t ever go back to. This can be quite terrifying. However, when these big transitions are sacredly held, we can find deep meaning and purpose as we move through the fear zone. So how do we bring the magic of initiation into business? Each time we are promoted or enter the cultural fabric of a new company, we are initia...
Send us a text What does it mean to take a leap of faith? And what (or who) waits for us on the other side? I took a leap of faith 3 years ago when I chose to leave the 9-5 model. I now travel the world living a global, seasonal lifestyle within a decentralized community of incredible humans... sounds incredible right? It is, AND it hasn’t come without its challenges. I’ve had to move through my fears over and over again. Often when we imagine the idealized version of ourselves or our lives,...
Send us a text It can be scary to leave the current “template” of work. If we leave the “norm” or what is expected of us, will we be abandoned? Will we run out of resources? Fear can keep us stuck. The fear may even seem quite rational. Since leaving my 9-5 and redesigning my lifestyle, I’ve had to face it all… I’ve had to deconstruct my belief system, and then reconstruct my inner operating system with new beliefs. I now live a lifestyle that looks like I designed it. How did I do it? ...
Send us a text What does it mean to live a life of full integrity? And how might it impact our ability to manifest? How we lead our lives is a form of leadership. The choices we make and the lifestyles we build for ourselves are all a reflection of our inner operating system. We each have our own intricate belief systems, complete with core values and guiding principles. But how often do we slow down to reflect on those beliefs and make sure that we want to keep them? This episode is all ab...
Send us a text This week I’m coming to you from Ireland! I’ve felt a pull to come here since I was a little girl, and through honoring my intuition, it’s finally happened. I’ve been connecting with the land and ancestors, on this magical quest to live this season of life from a place of deep intention. We are a new version of ourselves each moment. We are also products of our context, and I’m now in a completely different environment. This seasonal way of living and working, and choosi...
Send us a text The conditions of modern work culture often cause us to turn to unhealthy coping mechanisms in an attempt to regulate our nervous systems. For many of us, we have become addicted to or reliant upon coping mechanisms like fueling ourselves with caffeine, drinking alcohol, and overeating. When we bring our disregulated nervous systems into a collective field, we can disregulate the nervous systems of those around us. We never know who on our team struggles with addiction, ...
