When we are Anti Fragile we improve through stress, pressure and adversity. In this episode we get clear on what it means to be anti-fragile and how we can nurture that concept for ourselves and those we lead.

Where is your head at leader? Are you focused on what you don't have and didn't get an opportunity to do or are you focused on making the most of the remainder of the year? In this episode I'll give you a simple framework for catching and reframing the stories you tell yourself.

In this episode we come back to Courageous Conversations and I share with you 10 tips for holding the space for yourself and others to have better conversations.

In this episode I invite you to take 5 Minutes to Think about your style under stress

As authentic, courageous leaders, when shit gets real and a courageous conversation presents itself, we don't run away or avoid (even though our brain is screaming at us to do just that!) Instead, we dig deep into our toolkit so that we are ready to reset ourselves when any unhelpful, human behaviours arise. In this episode I'll share 3 great questions that you can add to your toolkit to help you when preparing for a crucial conversation.

When it comes to courageous conversations, the wise Brene Brown says that when we avoid stating the truth - when we are vague or ambiguous under the guise of being kind - it is often because we are trying to lessen the discomfort for ourselves, not for the other person.

In this weeks episode, I want to highlight a couple of ways that you can work on you first and prepare yourself to clearly and confidently hold the conversations you prefer to avoid.

There is so much beyond your control, so zooming in and focusing on what you can control can bring some stability, peace and hope. In this episode I'll lead you through an exercise to help you find stability and a way forward when faced with difficult and overwhelming situations (like say, a pandemic!)

In the last few episodes I've been talking about showing up as the leader you want to be and how self awareness is key to that. Today I'm inviting you to take 5 minutes to think about what gets in the way of showing up as the leader and human you want to be.

In today's episode we're exploring this quote, from Rasmus Hougaard and Jacqueline Carter's book, The mind of The Leader 'If we as leaders want to engage the people we are leading, we need to show up as human beings not as an authority, not as status, not as hierarchy but as a human being talking to a human being'.
