How Can Self-Trust Transform Your Leadership Journey? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Imagine a nine-year old girl writing and directing her first play. Even at this young age, she has a natural inclination to lead. An extrovert, she’s also highly sensitive. And this trait, while often misunderstood by others, becomes a cornerstone of her self-awareness. Over time, her hypersensitivity becomes a guide to what feels right for her. The little girl grows into a remarkable woman whose career journey crosses continents and industries, and takes her from her native Nigeria to a new hom
When fear hides in plain sight (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Fear fascinates me. It’s ever-present, but rarely obvious. It’s behind every knee-jerk reaction to a stressful event. And, ultimately, it’s what makes us human.

A fear of change might be pointing to a need for more adventure in our life. And a fear of regret? For my guest on this week’s Fearl
How to bridge the gap between challenge and opportunity (opens the original)
Read excerpt
For this week’s Fearless Forward podcast guest, an early career setback became a gift. Having convinced herself she wasn’t good enough to teach, she lost faith in her own worth. It took the right conversations with the right people for her to see this wasn’t true. Today, Esther Taylor is the CEO of the Lady Macadam Breast Cancer Trust. Historically, Lady Macadam was a pioneer in providing mammograms. But as the NHS improved its services and the charity’s equipment aged, Esther noticed a critical
