    Visionaries | Natalie MacNeil #35

    Some of the most important lessons I’ve learned as a human, a leader and a woman, have been the direct result of being in the orbit of Natalie MacNeil.  An Emmy award winning media entrepreneur, a coach, a mentor, a futurist and seer Natalie represents a lot of brilliance in a lot of ways… but to me she’s a powerfully feminine (read: gently and quietly fierce) ambassador for hope, technology and female wealth and embodied leadership. In this episode: We do a deep dive into AINatalie reflects on the power of the Whyfinding experience we supported her withShe reveals the origin of the Collective (her high-level Mastermind which is the reason I keep getting to go to Necker island and spend time with Richard Branson) We explore how to hold hope in trying times, and of course…Whether Natalie is on team dog or team cat 🐶🐱 This Visionaries episode will make you think, make you laugh, and hopefully inspire a bit of optimism during this time in our history that can often feel quite bleak.  Interested in a VIP session with me like what Natalie describes to support you with brand strategy and psychology, purpose clarity and color?

    10 lessons from Necker Island - part 1 - #e32

    Have you heard of Necker Island? How about Sir Richard Branson? If you're a serial entrepreneur like me, if you have ever sought out examples of entrepreneurs who have taken massive risks, again and again, and won - there may be no better example than Sir Richard Branson.. founder of the Virgin Group. I've been fascinated with Richard's "Screw it, Let's Do it" attitude since I very first discovered him I read every book I could find on his life and businesses... but never could I have guessed way back than (at least 15+ years ago) that I'd have a chance to visit Necker, his private island (his full-time home) - but also spend days and days in his company, listening to his anecdotes, stories, advice and jokes... and absorbing the profoundly transformative energy of Necker Island and its intrepid owner, Sir Richard Branson. I was invited to Necker Island as a member of The Collective, an impact mastermind for women entrepreneurs led by Natalie MacNeil that is an official partner of Richard Branson’s Virgin Unite. It's a tremendous honor to have the opportunity not once, but twice (so far) to visit this enchanted place, and to do so in the company of more than 30 other curious, creative women who are making major waves in their own communities and businesses. In this episode, I'm going to take you along on my recent trip to Necker, and share the first 5 of 10 insights and lessons I brought back with me.

    Purpose Anxiety, Creative Genius & Elizabeth Gilbert #ep30

    Come along with me for a critique of an evening with Elizabeth Gilbert, author of 'Eat, Pray, Love' and 'Big Magic.' Let's explore Liz's description of 'Purpose Anxiety' and the profound alternative she recommends to the pursuit of a 'purpose-driven' life. In this episode I reflect on the intricate dance between creativity, fear, risk-taking, purpose and presence. What is the cross-over between being 'purpose driven' and doing less harm... how does that fit in with a joy first life, and being more present in our lives. Do I agree with Liz Gilbert's call to action when she says ''Why are we all trying to make our mark on the world? It seems to me that the world has been eloquently requesting for some time that we stop trying to make marks on her.... or is it in direct conflict with what I believe? Tune-in to find out... Takeaways How Liz Gilbert defines Purpose anxiety and its oppositeWhat is the cross-over between more purpose and doing less harm? Can we actively do less harm without being purpose-driven?Where does our purpose come from, should we be anxious about finding it? What is the role of presence in a joy first life? What about the role of presence in creativity? Purpose can guide our decisions and actions, helping us prioritize what aligns with our values and make a positive impact in the world.Genius is not an identity, but a supernatural force that flows through us; it is not something we possess, but something that visits us.Embracing the mystery of life and being open to the unknown can bring meaning and joy to our lives.
