Leading Conversations

Cheryl Esposito welcomes Dr. Jean Houston, scholar, philosopher, researcher in human capacities, and one of the principal founders of the Human Potential Movement. To say Jean Houston is forward thinking is an understatement. A true visionary for what is (beyond the obvious), and what can be, she speaks to the complexity of our times as being an indicator rather than a problem. She sees it as if the “reset button” for the future has been switched on…and we need to get on with it. Jean purports that “we are now directors of a world that was previously directing us.” The question is how to step into that enormous task? Her challenge to us: Awaken to your own purpose in this time of global complexity. Join Cheryl Esposito and Dr. Jean Houston to wake up to your journey!

Cheryl Esposito welcomes Alan Cohen, author, speaker and teacher dedicated to helping you reveal your own deep well of wisdom, your genius. His work inspires us to consider “the life well-lived,” & offers ways to live it ourselves. He teaches how to extract lessons from the practical experiences of daily living, & find beauty in the seeming mundane. Alan tells us “You deserve far more than you have been settling for. Rather than hardship, you are heir to boundless love, forgiveness, prosperity, & healing.” When we are settling, our true nature - our integrity with self – is out of sync with our life.You are in integrity when the life you are living on the outside matches who you are on the inside. It takes practice: tuning in to how things feel; tuning into our body; understanding when things feel off - they are off, & so are we. Are you ready to be true to yourself & live your full integrity? Join Cheryl Esposito & Alan Cohen & say yes to your wisdom & genius for a life well-lived.

Cheryl Esposito welcomes Anat Baniel, best-selling author of Move Into Life: The Nine Essentials for Lifelong Vitality, & Kids Beyond Limits.

Movement is the language of the brain...any part of the body that does not have movement, the brain does not recognize.

Anat Baniel, founder of the “Neuromovement© Revolution,” has uncovered the nine essentials the brain requires to transform pain & limitation into vitality, well being & skill. Her work is known and practiced worldwide with countless success stories. The transformation, the “Neuromovement© Revolution” is, well, revolutionary.

Anat studied dance & movement growing up, then as an adult became a student of Dr. Moshe Feldenkrais, creator of an ingenious method for effective neuromuscular reeducation. As a psychologist, she worked for an Israeli Army program for Post Traumatic Stress Disorder. Integrating her knowledge of movement into the work yielded positive results. The deeper into the work she got, the more lives she

Cheryl Esposito welcomes Steve Farber, president & founder Extreme Leadership. Best-selling author: Greater Than Yourself: The Ultimate Lesson In Leadership & The Radical Leap: A Personal Lesson in Extreme Leadership.

Steve Farber had to make a change. His successful Wall Street business was killing him - physically & emotionally. Fast-forward to today with a successful business advising leaders on Wall Street & elsewhere, he is a happy, passionate man, loving life. He knew: aligning his values & his work would feed his spirit; loving his work would pay dividends – personally & to the bottom line. Love in leadership? Not always easy. Daily, leaders make changes, empower people, & put themselves on the line resulting in success or failure. You can fear that & not take action, or see fear as a reality in business. Steve says fear would not be worth it without love of the game. Easy to do? You be the judge. Join Cheryl Esposito & Steve Farber for leadership to the extreme - with love!

Cheryl Esposito welcomes Dr. Anita Sanchez, Aztec and Mexican-American thought leader, global business consultant, and author of The Four Sacred Gifts: Indigenous Wisdom for Modern Times. Wisdom is speaking...can you hear it? Have you allowed yourself the quiet to listen for wisdom in you, wisdom of lineage, wisdom of humanity?

Never in human history have we had access to so much information, and so little of the wisdom we crave. Data has its place, and, it has made us lazy. We have moved so far away from our human nature that we have forgotten that we are all connected as people. We have forgotten our inner voice, our wisdom connection.

Dr. Anita Sanchez is calling on all of humanity to pause, take a breath & remember our unbreakable human bond. Earth’s Elders offer the four sacred gifts, to help us embrace the lives we have been given, and remember we are one race – the human race. Join Cheryl Esposito & Dr. Anita Sanchez to hear the wisdom of the Four Gifts…it’s speaking to you.

Cheryl Esposito welcomes Deirdre Hade, a spiritual teacher and visionary leader in the ancient arts of the wisdom traditions. She is founder of the Foundation for Radiance, a non-profit center dedicated to healing those who have suffered from trauma, pain, and loss.

It is time to bring to life the wisdom traditions and ancient truths of sages and prophets, and make them new again. We have much to learn, and Deirdre wants us to begin with our self.

A teacher of peace, Deirdre believes that to end all war, we have to end the war within; make peace with our self; understand that we are connected to all beings, to the earth, to the stars; to shift our view of blame, to one of compassion. It is from here that leaders can truly see possibility, shape the future, make a true difference in the world.

Is it time for you to step into your own leadership of possibility? Join Cheryl Esposito and Deirdre Hade to begin the journey!
