Today I'm chatting with Gwen Deloux. She's French, living in London and her wow is as a leadership, mindset and self-care coach. She's absolutely passionate about helping people be at their best and own their brilliance, with an emphasis on their human interactions and relationship with nature.

She especially works with women and teams who want to create more impact and a better future in line with their values. 

And... she is a part of this special edition series where I'm SHOWING OFF women. Everyday women of all sorts, all over the world. My hope is to bring insight, encouragement and inspiration at a very difficult time on the planet.  And, most importantly, to help re-imagine what women leading their worlds looks like.

Cathryn and I have been friends for over 20 years. We met at the change-management consultancy we worked for, which was based in Scotland. I lived in London in the days way before remote working was even a thing - and yet this company believed in it, so I worked from home.

Once a month I'd fly up to the company offices for a few days and stay with Cathryn and her husband. I have fond memories of late night chats and lots and lots of laughter over a bottle of wine.

And tears. And dreams. 

Before the pandemic I finally took my son to visit them and they gave us a most magnificent holiday touring around Scotland. My teenager still talks of it.

As you listen to this episode, soak up the essence of Cathryn and you'll see why I love this girl so much, and why people love the Scots so much. I'm so excited to show her off to you. 

The 'official bit'.... Cathryn Archer is a drummer, a singer and a photographer.  She lives with her husband and 3 daughters in Scotland.

And she is a part of this special edition series where I'm SHOWING OFF women. Everyday women of all sorts, all over the world. My hope is to bring insight, encouragement and inspiration at a very difficult time on the planet.  And, most importantly, to help re-imagine what women leading their worlds looks like.

Today I'm showing off Viola Heller. An intelligent, insightful chat about love, leadership and culture. 

Viola helps single ladies find Mr. or Mrs. Right (especially when they think that the good ones are already taken!). 

She's had her own battles with attachment anxiety and unworthiness all her life, dedicated the past two decades exploring all kinds of personal development theories and tools and found her own way of loving freely and allowing people to love her unconditionally.

Ever met a living lighthouse? Maria, my next guest comes pretty close. She radiates such inspiration and strength and when you dig into her story you'll know why. Listen to this episode to hear her story about living behind the wall in Germany.

She's built her business on the belief that every woman is a lighthouse and that when we spark our true essence and uniqueness, we free ourselves from the stress of mainstream marketing and become a beacon capable of creating true impact.

Kasia Krasucka is a total inspiration. And I'm thrilled to be showing her off today. 

Kasia is a language teacher turned Transformational Mentor who empowers women to break free from fear and limiting beliefs. 

She was raised in Poland, spent most of her adult life in England, and in 2015 moved to Denmark.

Her own story is one of being trapped in her own insecurities, living in fear and sorrow - attracting pain and harmful people into her life. She know first hand what it feels like to constantly feel exhausted, unworthy, used and unfulfilled. However, the belief that life can be different, made her embark on the dynamic journey of self-discovery.

Kasia has spent over 20 years researching psychology, seeking inspiration, working with transformational coaches, and applying all that knowledge to her own life, to finally break free!

Having found her freedom, her dream is for you to discover the power of inner love and courage to reach for your wildest dreams.
