Conscious Creative Leadership

In this final episode of season 2 we conclude our exploration of the everyday challenges of leadership by discussing how to make good decisions. Making choices is Conscious Creative Leadership in action. To be empowered is to feel that you have the agency to make choices about your life, and the energy to see them through. But so many factors, both internal and external, can influence this. So in...

“Money makes the world go round” but how do you manage this important energy as a Conscious Creative Leader in a world of scarcity? As serial entrepreneurs and creatives, money is something we’ve both struggled with in our lives. Much of our personal work has been about redefining and taking charge of our relationship with money so that it works better for us.  So this episode is packed with...

Today we're looking at Fear - the underlying energy that informs every other episode in this season about the challenges of leadership. Whether it’s fear of failure, fear of exposing too much, or fear of not being good enough, the biggest challenge we have as Conscious Creative Leaders is to manage our fear and keep moving forward. In this wide-ranging conversation we ponder: How can we confront f...

This week we zero in on Failure - an inevitability for anyone taking a leadership role!  But it's one that can be challenging to navigate. We don’t really believe in failure as such, but we do recognise that things don’t always go to plan and recognise that this can have long term consequences for our reputations, resilience and self esteem. So join us as we cover: The difference between mist...

This week we discuss Imposter Syndrome - that creeping feeling inside that whispers you’re not good enough... even when you’re beyond qualified. Various surveys from the 1970’s to the 2020’s suggest that between 30% and 70% of us experience imposter syndrome at some point in our lives, depending on our context and identity, and we know it's something many of you can relate to. So join as as we exp...

Today we 're diving into the challenges of finding clarity in our professional identity. As multi-passionates, we have both struggled with explaining to the world who we are based on what we do! We love doing lots of different things, but the challenge has been to define the connecting values within those that make sense of all our different projects.  Join us as we explore: Identity and purp...

Welcome to Season Two of the Conscious Creative Leadership Podcast! In this series we’re focusing on the everyday challenges to Leadership - the things that can trip us up, derail our plans or even stop us in our tracks.

In this final episode of Season One of the Conscious Creative Leadership Podcast we focus on Commitment.

This week is all about Purpose, that driving force that gives meaning to your life and gets you out of bed in the morning. A Conscious Creative Leader’s purpose is aligned with their values and is focused on how to make the world around them better for everyone. In this episode we talk about growth and how all the principles discussed so far in this podcast series come together at the service of y...

Today we talk about Influence. For us Influence is less about being “An Influencer” and more about walking your talk. A major part of Conscious Creative Leadership is role modelling, but not only in what you do. Influence is more effective if there is integrity with who you are being too. Join us as we talk about becoming authentic in your leadership! This week’s question - Are you walking your ta...

Productivity is one of the main reasons clients seek us out as coaches, but in this episode we focus less on “getting things done” and far more on getting things completed. Productivity for a Conscious Creative Leader is often about holding a vision rather than doing all the tasks to get you there. And it’s about surrounding yourself with the right people and supporting them so you can meet that v...

Episode 4 focuses on Courage, the essential element necessary for growth. We discuss the relationship between Courage and Fear and how without Courage, there is no integrity. We talk about the lived experience of addiction and abuse, and the courage it takes to walk away and start a new life. If you have been affected by any of these issues here are some great resources to support you in your own...

This week we talk about Energy, how to generate it, what can block it and how it affects your interactions with others. Energy is the wellspring of everything that allows you to do the things you desire in life. As a Conscious Creative Leader being mindful of your energy is the essential element that draws people to you and keeps life juicy and fun. Join us as we talk about how you can light up th...

What are you clear and not clear about in your life right now? Dr...
