In this episode Heather explains what a 'Renewalist' is and why it is a different style of leadership to two more readily recognised categories, being management and advocacy. Heather explains from the example of Beauty and the Beast, how Renewalists are people who humanise systems by stepping into them fully. The episode ends with a time for reflection about whether you are "all in" to lead the community you stand within, or whether you feel one-toe-out.

The word “leadership” has become tired.
 It’s been gentrified—repackaged as a job description, overselling its glamour whilst underselling its beauty.
Real leaders don’t chase titles. They stay in the hard places, where there’s pushback and limited resources. They endure the subtle and overt ridicule that comes with believing things can be different.
My podcast is for the weird and wonderful ones—the people who keep believing and keep building, even when the system seems designed to make them fail.
If that’s you, let’s be friends. Because the biggest threat to people like us is isolation. The second is never having the skills involved in rebuilding from the ground up taught to us, studied or recognised.
That’s why I created The Academy of Systemic Renewal: a place that champions the science of what we do.
