In this episode of Car Chats, we go for a ride with Naomi Shepherd - one of the most senior leaders at Meta, mother of 3, and someone I’ve personally been lucky enough to work with since…2018. Throughout our drive we discuss her leadership journey, both as a parent and business leader, in particular the importance of how she’s come to terms with leading herself before leading others. We also chat about her perspective on life and love, and the realities of juggling all parts of life, ‘plate spinning’ as she calls it. And we also chat about how she incorporates a sense of playfulness into her parenting style - including a fictional character ‘Trevor’ she’s created for her kids.


Car Chats with Crowey is a series where we learn from others’ stories and their own hero’s journey over a chat, coffee and the ‘safest’ car ride in the world… psychological safety that is.

The Hero’s Journey might be one of the most important themes we’ve ever covered in Mojospresso, because it's one of the most powerful frameworks to help us all navigate this crazy thing called life right now.


The whole idea of the Hero’s Journey is that it’s the real story of life - or the "no-filters" experience of being alive, struggles and all. We’re born, we pass through childhood to the messiness of adolescence, eventually being spat out into adulthood where we face more internal and external conflicts on the next round of adventure. 


Because these patterns are so recurring, the Hero’s Journey framework can be an incredibly powerful tool for us to navigate change and uncertainty. And when we can move through each of the 3 Chapters, we can come to terms with who we are, what we're made of, and what we're here to do in this weird and wonderful world.

Mojospresso - Human Beings vs Human Doings

Whilst there can be healthy distractions in life - particularly those unexpected laughs, we didn’t think we needed - there are also unhealthy distractions that can potentially have pretty big consequences. These are the kinds of distractions that can often pull us away from focusing on the stuff that really matters, like our most important relationships, our precious time and our ability to be more present.

In this episode, we discuss some the biggest forms of distractions and how we can start reframing our approach so they don’t surface as regrets later in life.

Mojospresso - Dealing with Distraction

With millions of leadership books out there it can be difficult to find the right definition of what makes a good leader or what leadership even is. But one thing we do know is, that when someone finally learns the formula for leadership they often say “Ohhhh… so that’s a leader!” 
In this episode, we simplify what makes a great leader and let go of this mythical hero-type leader, or thinking it’s about ourselves, as opposed to the impact we can have on others.
