I'm back at it after 5+ years. I've been through the fire. Forged by it 🔥 From finding out I wasn't actually my girl's dad 💔 to heart problems, strokes, losing my memory, speech and vision, and nearly losing my life multiple times... I thought success meant achieving more, earning more and providing more. Nearly losing everything changed that. Now, I believe the most important person I'll ever learn to lead is myself. To understand and fully accept myself. Look after my health. Be present with the people I love. And make the most of the time I have with them... because it's time I'll never get back. Lead Yourself First is about the conversations that help us do that. I'll sit down with people who've been through their own fire, understand what shaped them, what changed them, and who they've become because of it. No pretending. No having it all figured out. Just honest conversations about what it means to Lead Yourself First.

    #251 - How to be Authentically YOU (Live workshop)

    #251 - How to be Authentically YOU (Live workshop) This is a workshop I created specifically for the Conscious Leaders event here in Perth a few weeks back. I do feel there is real power in this, but this was just an outlet for me to get some of my thoughts around this topic, out of my head and onto paper. I wanted to approach this from a slightly different perspective. Instead of focusing on action and behaviour, choosing to focus on what compels those actions and how we can begin to make more consistent and aligned actions, which lead to showing up as authentic... at least more often than not. As of right now I have no intention of refining and continuing to deliver this, but if you see value in it, I would be more than happy to come to your club/organisation and do so. #mentalhealth #emotionalhealth #authenticity #trauma #vulnerbaility #menswork #embodiment
