What if someone gave you a ‘time machine’ which for every year of your life gave you additional three years? What if by that you could then increase the impact you have by x40? That’s what making my life ‘agile’ did for me.

Welcome to my series of the 5 biggest lessons I have learned so far on my impact journey. I believe these lessons can help any change-maker achieve their full potential while also taking care of themselves.

Being agile is all about validating your assumptions quickly to avoid going for too long in the wrong direction. Today everyone is being agile in business and with software - but what about our lives as a whole? How often do you sit down, and understand the assumptions which are quietly driving your biggest life decisions without you even knowing them? And importantly, how often do you decide to test them? Testing my life assumptions in an agile way brought me some of the best experiences in my life such as creating a video documentary with UNICEF in Lebanon. It allowed me to move on my impact journey so much quicker and I am confident it can have a huge impact on you. Join me if you want to hear about the 3 steps you can take today to make your life agile and increase your impact.

How to set personal boundaries when your work is meant to 'save' lives? When women enter the International Development sector, they often encounter the harsh reality of 14-hour workdays, burnout, and workplace harassment. Their passion may turn into depression and they may abandon their dreams.

But does it have to be this way?

In today's episode, my guest Camille Neyhouser, who spent 13 years in the International Development field, decided to transition into becoming a life coach. She opens up about the most challenging moments she and her female colleagues faced while working in Niger and Uganda. Camille takes us through her personal journey of self-growth, self-care, and the realization that people in the Global South do not need any more 'saviours.'

Are you trapped in the drama triangle of victim, rescuer (saviour), and persecutor, or would you rather be part of the triangle of creator, coach, and challenger? Which path do you choose?

By learning to establish boundaries instead of being the 'saviour' at any cost, we not only serve ourselves but also fulfill our mission in the long run. Let’s find out how.

What if you believed in making the impossible possible? What if you could impact people's lives in a way you have never imagined before?

Have you ever allowed fear to be more important than your meaning/mission? What if you could leverage your mission to give you strengths in the most challenging moments?

Today I talk about my experience of quitting McKinsey during the recession to follow what I deeply believe in and commit to the impact I want to have. I share some of the hardest and most vulnerable moments and the lessons I took from them

1. Use the past to build trust in yourself and leverage it when making tough decisions

2. Schedule the time to ‘redecide’. If you were to choose again, would you choose the same career/relationships/mission/goals?

3. Create a vision of future impact which is so compelling that you can’t resist following it

‘Greater than myself’ is your go-to place to hear stories from inspiring change-makers, reflect on how you want to choose a meaning ‘greater than you’ and create a fulfilling yet impactful life.

Conversations about finding, pursuing and achieving the mission you choose for yourselves and for the betterment of humanity. Stories from social and environmental change-makers from different backgrounds who are connected by a sense of mission to serve others, a mission ‘greater than them’.
