Episode 7: Thrive with Conscious Awareness - with Julie Anne Christophe

In this episode you will discover what triggered Julie Anne Christophe to embark on a transformational journey which she describes as ‘going from personal growth to living consciously’. Wanting to be better is just an external desire, whereas when you want to live in connection to your true self ‘that’s a very different ball game.’ What are the three deep questions she asked herself, being in a quest to live a happy and fulfilling life, and how did she find the answers? In her captivating and inspirational story, she explains the difference between being aware versus embodying and living who you are at the core. You’ll learn what the difference is between conscious evolution and change revolution. Julie Anne talks about how a person’s individual purpose is revealed as we move forward in life. Purpose is discovered when we follow our ‘pull’ every time, which means we need to slow down and be present. Because when you are always in your head, you are not hearing your pull. The pull is what excites you, what you are curious about, and what you want to know more of. ‘It’s every step that we take, that reveals what our passion and purpose is.’ Julie Anne describes leadership as taking responsibility, and how easy is to assume that responsibility when you know who you are and what you love. In fact, it’s fun to take responsibility when you do what you love! She speaks about the interplay between responsibility and freedom, and how this affects our exchanges with others in a far more empowering way. You’ll also learn what stands in the way of teams being aligned and thriving. Learn about Julie Anne’s inspirational purpose and, in my recurring theme in this series, how her purpose protects her. Curious to know about the five stages of conscious evolution, and what the virtue and resistance is at each stage? Then tune in for episode 7 ‘Thrive with Conscious Awareness’.

Episode 6: Why leaders need to go beyond sustainability. The journey to regeneration and organisational thriving - with Sarah Perreard

In this episode you will learn what triggered Sarah to embark on a purpose led journey. You’ll see how her journey unfolded with beauty, and allowed her to focus her energy on systemic environmental change. As she puts it, this is ‘being in the position to do good, to influence things for the better, and it comes with a huge feeling of responsibility’. She continues ‘We need systemic change if we want to be really sustainable, in the sense that it doesn’t need constant repairing.’ You will hear how Sarah is empowering others through education, around her meaningful environmental projects. She wants people to be empowered not only through understanding the problem, but also seeing the solution. In her upcoming book, kids’ education will be a focus. You’ll see we don’t need to be climate or biodiversity experts for each of us to play a meaningful and impactful role. You will also observe a recurring theme in my podcasts, about how our purpose is protecting us. Sarah’s stubborn optimism is embellished with meaningful action in order to attract more and more people to the movement of change makers. Awareness leads to small changes, and through the ecology of small gestures, and by reaching only a 3.5% tipping point, we can change the world. Why are sustainability consultants nowadays overbooked? What do leaders need to know about the circular economy and, in fact, to be able to go beyond it to include health and wellbeing and biodiversity? Sustainability, of course, is not doing further harm. But given so much harm has already been done, there is a need to go to regeneration and repairing. However, nature is very resilient, and it can repair and actually thrive, but we need to give it a little bit of help. The conversation needs to be more about regeneration and restoration, and companies need to go down that route. You will hear how we now need to act collectively to make mother Earth healthy!
