Welcome to this special wrap-up episode of Your Permission to Pause with me Jo Cowlin. Today we’re rounding off season two by reflecting on some of the highlights over the past few months, we’ve explored everything from rest and allyship to pain, productivity, and leading through change, all with the goal of helping you lead and live in a way that feels more intentional.
We’ve also heard from some brilliant guests, like Lyndsey Oliver on inclusivity and Ben Causer on the impact of pain. A big thank you to all my guests who’ve brought real depth and honesty to these conversations.
So whether you’ve been with us all season or just tuning in now, this episode is a chance to pause, take stock, and carry a few helpful takeaways with you into the months ahead.

Meet your host Jo Cowlin
Jo Cowlin keeps it real.
Some people might like to call her ‘a motivational people development expert’ but Jo would rather you didn’t.
Jo is a no-nonsense, straight-talking northerner
She is also a transformational coach, facilitator and game changer. She has a passion for results and is dedicated to helping leaders realise their aspirations without compromising their wellbeing.
She dares individuals to be different by eliminating corporate BS, life coaching, and hand-holding, and instead encourages breaking through barriers to gain clarity and step into personal power for a life without limits.
Resilience and a proactive approach to mental wellbeing is at the core of all of her work which is predominantly aimed at helping leaders and their teams refocus, regroup and rapidly adjust to change. With a background in pharmaceutical leadership and expertise across various sectors, she offers coaching and leadership programs tailored to individual and organisational needs.
When Jo isn’t transforming company cultures, you’ll find her managing her 3 teenage girls’ busy social calendars. She’s a dab hand in the kitchen and true to form, loves to keep her food real. And if she isn’t doing either of those you will find her out in nature walking her dog or lifting a barbell in the gym.
