A bit of tear-jerker to end Season 1 of the podcast! Here, I read out the letter I have written to my 3 children, telling them what I’ve been through in my career this year and my biggest wish for them, that I only realised the power of because of this year.

Stacy Holland carved out a successful corporate career over 20+ years, taking on Executive Leadership roles at leading blue-chip companies in the UK and Dubai. But she found herself hitting multiple walls, multiple times, with catastrophic consequences - including being signed off work with Chronic Fatigue Syndrome in her twenties, dealing with debilitating panic attacks before going to the office in the mornings in her thirties and being signed off work again with exhaustion and anxiety in her forties. Each time, she licked her wounds, got back up and made some changes – but she was missing the most important change: tuning into who she really was and what she really wanted to do.

Once Stacy tuned into this, everything started changing.

Natasha Jain found out, from an early age, what happens when you fail – she even became comfortable with the idea of failing – because she knew that all it amounted to was an opportunity to start again. And that is what Natasha has become accustomed to doing. Eliminating the fear of failure has undoubtedly served Natasha very well in her career, but she admits there is one role in her life where starting again is not an option – her new role of Mother - and that makes her feel very uncomfortable.

Kirsty Thomas talks openly about the mistakes that she fell victim to in her early career – including the mistake of letting people bully her (because she didn’t trust herself enough to question their behaviour), the mistake of sticking in a career that made her hate the person she had become (because she felt that’s what she “should” do) and the mistake of convincing herself she was fine (because that was easier than doing anything about it). Until she was forced to do something about it. Kirsty has taken back control and now owns her own business as a coach, psychologist and counsellor – with a difference.

Having pushed herself to burnout three times during her relentless career as an account manager in the food industry, Laura Robson left to set up her own business. In lockdown. With a newborn baby. She doesn’t do things by halves! Laura’s first business fizzled out somewhat after she defaulted to her go-to hustle mentality. She found herself wanting more. So, she tried again – this time, taking her time with it – no constrictive timescales. She eased herself into it – and as a result, the launch of her business, Gorgeous Little Bits, has felt almost effortless. And that’s not it. This business forms the foundations of an even bigger social enterprise dream.

Join Laura as she shares her career story.

Caroline left the corporate world 4 years ago after her body told her, in no uncertain terms, that enough was enough. Caroline set up a coaching business, with no proof she could make it work. But the more Caroline has listened to her instinct and surrendered to where she is being guided, the more doors have opened for her. Caroline now has a 7-figure coaching business, a team of 5 working with her – and she’s on a remarkable mission to make the world a better place and leave a legacy her children will be proud of.

{24:35}: If you have less than 5 minutes to yourself each day, what “internal work” can you do?

{42:09}: What change does Caroline want to make to the world? What path is she moving her business towards?

{46:13}: Caroline’s thoughts on whether leaders in the corporate world are ready to lead from the heart as well as from the head.
