One of the biggest concerns for leaders right now is the well being of their own teams. It's a significant emerging issue, especially in the social sector.We want to help, so we're partnering with Australia's leading community news organisation, Pro Bono Australia, on a podcast that will be launching on 1st September.I'm excited to host the podcast and speak with incredible social sector leaders about the impact COVID-19 is having on their staff – the pressure of changing service delivery, the challenges of delivering on the front line during a pandemic and the financial uncertainty in the face of growing demand.Let's not forget the mental health challenges of balancing all of this with other roles we play, which for many have also changed in lock down (hats off to the remote learning parents, those feeling lonely in isolation or those who are spending too much time with loved ones… you know what I mean!)We're focusing on how leaders are supporting their staff through this time, but also where they're finding their own support, what tools they're turning to and how other leaders can learn from their experience.We'll leave you feeling hopeful and re-energised with ideas on how you can tackle these challenges and support your teams in new ways.The first episode will drop in two weeks on 1 September.Hit subscribe now to never miss an episode.And if you can't wait to start building your team's resilience with our free tools, head to www.topfivemovement.com/tools to get started.Head over to www.probonoaustralia.com.au for all the latest sector news.

A chat with Clare Desira, founder of the Top 5 movement about the power of positive thinking and why you need to rebel against negative thinking. We also chat about how to practise grated and the benefits of doing so.

Today we’re in the company of Clare Desira. Clare is a writer, coach, speaker and founder of the Top Five Movement – her side gig from her full-time corporate role. In December 2006 Clare started a daily practice of journaling her top five moments from the day, and has done so every day since. She now has over 2000 top five lists totalling more than 10,000 memories. The impact of her daily gratitude practice has been so profound that she created the Top Five Movement as a way of encouraging people to foster greater happiness, confidence and energy in their lives. Earlier this year, Clare’s Positive Thought Starter cards won product of the year. For more information visit: topfivemovement.com

We were so lucky to sit down wiht Clare Desira, the Chef Positivity Officer at the Top Five Movement. Clare takes us through her chance opportunity to attend a leadership extension program, starting the Top 5 Movement and connecting her purpose with her work. For all the show notes head over to www.pathwayspodcast.com/shownotes

Coach, speaker, product developer and founder of the Top Five Movement, Clare Desira discusses how we can use a daily gratitude practice to change the world. See show notes at www.naomiarnold.com.

Clare Desira is the founder of the Top Five Movement and someone I am lucky to call a dear friend. On a recent Skype date, Clare almost sheepishly admitted to me that – despite always identifying as an extrovert – she was becoming quickly aware of that her introverted side was becoming more dominant (much to my amusement). The benefit is that it gave me the perfect opportunity to grill her on her amazing work as a coach, speaker, and product developer – all whilst maintaining a corporate career that enables her to put her incredible skills to good in a completely different arena from the ‘online business world. In this episode, we chat about: :: Clare’s recent realisation that she’s an introvert (and what led to that realisation); :: How she balances the juggling act between her corporate career and entrepreneurial pursuits; :: Her early start in the world of personal development and how that led to a career using her coaching and speaking skills to find a job that really supports her passions and is aligned with her biggest goals and vision; :: The Top Five Movement and why gratitude is changing the world; :: Why gratitude and Clare’s unique method is so perfect for introverts; How you can be patient and grateful for what you have in pursuit of your other goals.
