Podcasts about conscious leadership

In this week's episode of The extra-Ordinary Leader, I'm joined by my friend and powerhouse leader Becky Barsellotti—Managing Partner at GiANT London and the brilliant mind behind Alive, a seven-step process for creating a life by design, not by accident.Becky was one of the earliest catalysts in my own leadership journey. From the moment I met her, I knew she had that rare gift of unlocking people on the spot—and she did just that for me.In this conversation, we explore why leadership today demands a deeper level of self-awareness, courage, and personal audit. We talk about how journaling can become a leadership tool, the real risk of staying on autopilot, and why businesses don't need more cogs—they need humans who are fully alive. Becky also introduces her concept of the “seven summits” that define a meaningful life, and shares how this process is transforming teams and individuals alike.This one is full of practical wisdom and life-defining questions. Whether you're leading a team or leading yourself, this episode will move the dial on how intentionally you live and lead.To find out more about Becky's Alive cohorts or to bring this work into your team, visit https://www.instagram.com/the.alive.collective/To explore how I can bring energy, urgency, and transformational coaching into your leadership culture, email me directly at info@dollywaddell.comINSIDE THIS EPISODEWhat it means to live by design, not by accidentThe Alive framework: seven summits of a meaningful lifeWhy journaling is a leadership tool—not a luxuryHow to reframe rest and create your own "recharge rhythm"Fear-flossing: a daily mindset practice for leadersHow businesses can unlock people's potential through intentionWhat stops people from living lives they're proud ofWhy now, more than ever, leaders must choose intentionalityThis conversation ties closely into the themes in my book The extra-Ordinary Leader—especially the chapter on the “Mirror Moment.” If you've not yet grabbed your copy, take a look here: https://www.dollywaddell.com/store/p/the-extra-ordinary-leader

So much of what holds leaders back isn't strategy or skill. It's the invisible mindset traps we don't even realize we're stuck in. Most leadership challenges are created by unconscious patterns running the show beneath the surface. In this episode, we dig into what it really takes to break those patterns with Diana Chapman, executive coach and co-author of The 15 Commitments of Conscious Leadership. We explore how leaders unknowingly operate from fear instead of trust, how ego-driven patterns around control, approval, and security quietly sabotage progress, and why taking radical responsibility is a game-changer. Diana also breaks down the Drama Triangle—the victim, villain, and hero roles we slip into—and reveals how to break free from reactivity and drama to lead with more clarity and presence. We unpack why addiction to comfort and being right can quietly derail your leadership impact, and explore the dangers of greed in leadership, and what it really means to show up in a state of trust and curiosity.   ________________ Start your day with the world's top leaders by joining thousands of others at Great Leadership on Substack.

Send us a textToo many transformational programs focus on individual breakthroughs and ignore the collective. But true evolution doesn't happen in isolation—it happens in community. It creates a ripple. And if your personal growth doesn't ripple out into the world, it's not transformation. It's performance.In this unfiltered, truth-telling episode of The Cosmic Valkyrie Podcast, Lynn Louise challenges the self-help industry's obsession with “solo healing” and spiritual bypassing—and invites you into something far more powerful: real, embodied, collective evolution.You'll hear why “just focus on yourself” is an outdated survival mechanism rooted in privilege, not empowerment. And why authentic transformation must engage with the world around you—not escape from it.

Dan Berger led Social Tables through a $100M exit and now he's focused on something even harder to build: belonging. In this vulnerable conversation, he shares what most leaders miss about culture, how his board almost ousted him due to a toxic exec hire, and why belonging should be treated as a leadership choice — not an HR initiative. He also unpacks why rituals matter, why alcohol doesn't belong in team settings, and what founders can learn from AA meetings about structure, vulnerability, and connection. We also get into his latest venture, Assemble Hospitality Group, a new asset class of “micro resorts” designed for team offsites and retreats. Dan breaks down the mechanics of retreat design, conscious exclusivity, and how different team members — from introverts to eager belongers — need different paths to feel seen and connected. If your company is hybrid, remote, or just feeling disconnected, this episode offers sharp, practical insight to get back on track.

What if the most powerful leadership tool you have… is your mind? The Neuroscience of Conscious Leadership isn't just a buzz phrase; it's the key to staying grounded, resilient, and effective in today's fast-moving, high-pressure world. In this week's episode of Reflect Forward, I sit down with Aileda Lindal, a brilliant consultant and expert in the convergence of technology and humanity, to explore how leaders can rewire their brains, shift their relationship with stress, and lead with calm, clarity, and conscious presence. Aileda's story of building and leading medical operations during the height of the COVID-19 pandemic is powerful. While the world shut down, her world sped up, and what got her through was presence, self-regulation, and a commitment to leading from the eye of the storm. Mic Drop Moment: “If you're not balanced, you're not calling your best shots; you're calling some potentially really bad ones. And those ripple out.” We talk about: • The science of resilience and how to regulate under pressure • What it means to operate from the “eye of the storm” • The power of mantras like cool, calm, and collected to ground your leadership • Why self-awareness isn't optional—it's a leadership non-negotiable • How I quit drinking and rewired my habits by making one decision and repeating it consistently This conversation is deeply personal and wildly practical. Whether you're leading a company, a team, or yourself, this episode will help you shift from reaction to conscious response. Key Takeaways: 1. Stress is a choice. Reframe it as a challenge or opportunity. 2. Presence builds resilience. The more aware you are, the more empowered your actions become. 3. You can reprogram your brain. Neuroplasticity proves that new habits do stick with consistency. 4. Your energy matters. As a leader, how you show up affects everyone around you.

Jesse Pujji reveals how he builds wildly successful companies from scratch by doubling down on talent, distribution, and the power of bootstrapping.   In this episode, Sarah Lockwood sits down with the serial founder and investor behind Gateway X, a venture studio that launches and scales high-performing companies without venture capital. Jesse shares how he went from Goldman Sachs and McKinsey to building Ampush, one of Facebook's earliest and most effective performance marketing agencies, which grew to manage over $1 billion in ad spend for top brands like Uber, Peloton, and Dollar Shave Club. That experience became the foundation for how he now builds high-performance teams and scalable businesses through bootstrapping.   Jesse breaks down the core principles that drive his companies: hiring exceptional talent, obsessing over sales and distribution, and staying rooted in profitability from day one. He shares the origin stories of ventures like GrowthAssistant, which connects startups with offshore marketing talent, and explains how each business at Gateway X is shaped by a unique unfair advantage and the right operating partner, not a VC-funded roadmap. From his two-farm model for sourcing ideas and people to his frameworks for knowing when to walk away from a failing project, Jesse offers a rare look into what it really takes to scale without VC.   This is a must-listen for founders ready to trade the unicorn myth for real traction, culture-driven leadership, and sustainable growth on their own terms.   Episode Breakdown: 00:00 Jesse Pujji's Entrepreneurial Journey from Ampush to Gateway X 05:01 Core Principles for Bootstrapping and Scaling Without VC 08:48 How GrowthAssistant Scaled to $20M in Revenue 13:32 The Two-Farm Model: Matching Ideas with the Right People 15:00 Knowing When to Kill an Idea and Move On 16:02 Inside Aux: Translating Marketing for Private Equity 21:09 Why Sales and Distribution Matter More Than Product 22:14 The Power of High Performance Teams 27:02 Building Profitable Companies with Operational Rigor 34:30 Managing Attention, Energy, and Leadership Across Startups 38:48 Conscious Leadership and the Value of Coaching   Links Dave Kashen - Startup CEO Coach Book - The 15 Commitments of Conscious Leadership: https://a.co/d/j4uKz9A   Connect with The Conscious Entrepreneur: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/conscious-entrepreneur/  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/conscious_entrepreneur_summit/  Website: http://www.consciousentrepreneur.us    Connect with Jesse Pujji: Website Gateway X: https://www.gateway.xyz/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jessepujji/   Connect with Sarah Lockwood: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/lockwoodsarah/ Website: https://hivecast.fm HiveCast.fm is a proud sponsor of The Conscious Entrepreneur Podcast.

“Yes, the world feels like a hot mess right now. But what if the real power lies not in fixing the chaos ‘out there,' but in finding our footing ‘in here'?” That was the heart of my recent conversation on More Than a Few Words with the always wise and wonderfully grounded Deborah Sunderland. We didn't talk strategy or spreadsheets this time—we talked soul. How we, as women business owners, can navigate the storms of our external world by coming back to the steady center within ourselves. Because let's be honest: things are weird out there. Between the economy, politics, and everything in between, it's easy to feel like we're being tossed around in a storm we didn't sign up for. But as Deborah gently reminded me—and now, I'll remind you—we've been through a lot, and we're still standing. That resilience? It's no small thing. Key Takeaways for Women Business Owners: You've already weathered storms. Recognize your resilience. The past few years have tested everyone, and you've made it through. That alone deserves a moment of appreciation. Your mindset is your power tool. Our brains are sneaky little things—they'll default to fear and scarcity unless we redirect them. When you catch yourself spiraling, pause and ask: “What thought is driving this feeling?” and then: “How might this actually be for me?” Emotions aren't the enemy—resistance is. Don't stuff it down. Feel it fully. Most emotions pass in 90 seconds if we stop wrestling with them. Anger, fear, frustration—they're signals, not stop signs. Shift the conversation with yourself. The most important conversations aren't in the boardroom—they're in your own mind. Be kinder, more curious, and less judgmental toward yourself. And hey, extend that grace to others too (yes, even the annoying customer service rep). Your breath is free medicine. Use it. Three deep breaths can shift your entire nervous system. It's not woo—it's biology. Take those moments of calm and reclaim your focus. Try This Today: Grab a notebook and write down: “How am I OK right now?” List at least 5 things. (Yes, “I'm breathing” counts!) Close your eyes and take 3 slow, deep breaths. Let your body know: “I am safe right now.” Before reacting to someone, ask: “How might they be doing their best?” It'll change the tone—and the outcome—of your conversation. About Debra Debra's genius is creating a clear vision for CEO's and their teams – making that vision a reality. With decades of C-level executive and team coaching, Debra challenges leaders by inviting them to create a collaborative, vibrant, responsible, and joy-filled culture, which fosters highly desirable results. Her practice is shared in a diverse range of industries: hi-tech, wealth management, engineering, healthcare, marketing and more. Debra specializes in awakening leaders to transformatively solve their upper limiting beliefs, sabotaging behaviors, and unconscious biases, moving them into sustainable excellence and self-awareness. She coaches through the tough and uncomfortable work of removing the blockages preventing leaders from fully living their genius, equipping them with the thoughts and skills to bring their goals to fruition. She challenges leaders to own their results in all areas of life, to be present in the here and now, stepping out of leading with reactivity and into conscious leadership. The CEO's chief purpose is to raise up their teams to practice radical responsibility and curiosity. Organizations achieve their optimal outcomes when they shift out of drama and create win-for-all solutions. Debra graduated from Miami University, holds a degree in Psychology and is certified in The 15 Commitments of Conscious Leadership, the Integrative9 Enneagram, Corporate Goal Coaching, and CTI Co-Active training. Debra's work has been featured on Fox National/Local News, Crain's Chicago Business, the Chicago Tribune, Chicago Sun- Times, and 190 N Television. As a continual learner, Debra is a graduate of the Inner MBA – Mindful NYU program. Her base is Nashville and Chicago.

We're thrilled to host Diana Chapman for our final episode of Season 10. A highly sought-after and trusted advisor, in her own words, Diana is an environmentalist at heart.  Diana came to the Hoffman Process in July 2024 with one desire. She'd already done a lot of personal growth work. She'd even sent many people to Hoffman. But it wasn't until this one desire became clear to her that she decided to go through the Process. Diana realized just how much creative energy she was spending each day on judging her body. Although she'd already made peace with her parents, Diana knew her judgment came from her parents' patterns. She wondered if the Hoffman Process could help, and it did. Diana shares that she often uses light-heartedness to work with her patterns. While that has worked well for her for some time, in the end, Diana has found that heartbreak is often necessary to transform some patterns. She shares that she's found liberation in a broken heart. In the work Diana does with teams and individuals, she leads them to work with the intelligence of the body and heart. She speaks of the sensuality of the body and how she wants to experience more heaven on earth, and guides others to experience this, too. We hope you enjoy this episode with Diana and Drew. Thank you for tuning in to season 10 of Love's Everyday Radius. We'll be back in August for season 11. More about Diana Chapman: Diana is a highly sought-after and trusted advisor, celebrated for her ability to deliver swift, impactful results while driving sustainable change. She has guided over a thousand CEOs and hundreds of executive teams. Renowned clients—from Genentech to Asana—praise her unique blend of clarity, compassion, boldness, and playfulness. As a facilitator for the Young Presidents Organization (YPO), Diana works with forums and chapters worldwide. Diana is a co-founder of The Conscious Leadership Group and co-author of the widely acclaimed book The 15 Commitments of Conscious Leadership. She's helped ignite a movement redefining what leadership looks like when it's rooted in awareness, integrity, and deep presence. Be on the lookout for Diana's new book, No Drama Teams, in 2027.

Our gifts come from the same place a lot of our triggers come from and how we learned to keep ourselves safe, and that shows up in leadership.” Highlights from the conversation include: ☑️ A deep look at conscious leadership and how our triggers and gifts show up in our work as change leaders ☑️ The impact of perfectionism on change leaders in the workplace ☑️ How to develop self-awareness as a change leader when you don't have direct access to a coach to support the process If you want to learn more about conscious leadership, be sure to tune in and hear what Renelle has to say!

But they never learned how to manage what's happening "in here," their thoughts, their patterns, their internal experience.Dr. Mays brings deep wisdom, grounded strategy, and lived experience to these questions. Together, we explore:Why leadership starts with self-awarenessThe root of burnout and how to dissolve it through presenceHow perfectionism, people-pleasing, and performance can become traps for leadersThe difference between cognitive awareness and embodied awareness (and why both matter)You'll also hear about Dr. Kevin's personal breaking point and how it shaped the way he now teaches leaders to access their full humanity.If this episode resonated with you, please subscribe, leave a review, and share it with someone who needs to hear this. Send it to the leader who's always on but rarely off.

Are you building your workplace culture intentionally, or allowing it to form by default? This question lies at the heart of effective leadership, yet few leaders truly understand how their everyday decisions silently shape what it feels like to work in their organizations.Culture isn't the aspirational language hanging on your office walls. It's the unspoken rules that govern how decisions get made, how people treat each other, and how your team functions when no one's watching. As we explore in this episode, we get the behavior we role model, celebrate, and perhaps most critically—the behavior we tolerate. When leaders say they value transparency but withhold information, or claim to support work-life balance while sending midnight emails, they create environments of mistrust where actions and words don't align.Margaret Graziano, bestselling author of "Ignite Culture," brings powerful insights from decades of experience in organizational leadership. Her observation that "people join companies for the mission but stay or leave based on the culture" captures why intentional culture-building matters more than ever in today's competitive landscape. We dig deep into her concept of conscious leadership—creating environments where people feel seen, safe, valued, and empowered—and why this approach transforms both individual performance and organizational outcomes.One particularly transformative distinction we explore is building "accountability without blame." In toxic workplaces, accountability feels like punishment. In thriving cultures, it's an act of respect—a way of saying, "I believe in you, and I know you're capable of this standard." This shift from fear to empowerment fundamentally changes how people show up, speak up, and step up.If your leadership energy became the blueprint for your culture, would you be proud of the result? Would people feel they truly matter? The culture you create is a direct reflection of the clarity, consistency, and courage you bring each day. It requires continuous attention—not a set-and-forget approach, but an ongoing commitment to embodying the values you wish to see throughout your organization.
