Most businesses start with a bold “why,” but along the way, profits take over, and purpose fades into just another corporate slogan. Now, with ESG and purpose-driven business facing backlash, companies are backing away, fearing controversy and short-term losses. But the truth is that leaders who abandon purpose risk more than just bad PR; they lose trust, culture, and long-term success.In this episode of The Happiness Squad Podcast, Ashish Kothari sits down with Thomas Eckschmidt to explore how organizations can evolve beyond profits, embrace conscious leadership, and create a culture of trust and impact—without sacrificing success. Thomas Eckschmidt is the co-founder of the Conscious Capitalism movement in Brazil and CEO of CBJ Conscious Business Journey, a global network driving conscious business transformation. A seasoned entrepreneur and advocate for Conscious Capitalism, he has launched multiple ventures, won 12 business awards, authored 11 books, and filed four patents. He also serves on corporate boards, helping organizations integrate conscious business practices.Things you will learn in this episode:• Understanding the Four Tenets of Conscious Capitalism• The Danger of Losing Your "Why" in Business• Ego vs. Ecosystem Leadership• The Power of Stakeholder Orientation• Reframing Business Success Beyond Just Profit• The Rise and Challenge of Conscious Capitalism• The Leadership Reset—Why This Matters NOWResources:✅• Thomas Eckschmidt's website: http://www.cbjourney.com/ • Creating Better Businesses for a Better World | Thomas Eckschmidt | TEDx: https://youtu.be/9Oqy8zywipU?si=GOnG6TCj7HFcBdeC • Harvard Global Leadership Development Study 2023: https://www.harvardbusiness.org/leadership-learning-insights/global-leadership-development-study/• The Conscious Business Activator: https://www.cbactivator.cc/ Books:✅• “Purpose Canvas for Business: Making it clear why we are in business” by Thomas Eckschmidt: https://a.co/d/gRYSAfy • Conscious Capitalism Field Guide (Harvard) co-authored by Thomas Eckschmidt: https://a.co/d/gRYSAfy • Shakti Leadership by Nilima Bhat and Rajendra Sisodia: https://a.co/d/3Vao9Ra • The Hidden Life of Trees by Peter Wohlleben: https://a.co/d/bSSr9nE• I Contain Multitudes by Ed Yong: https://a.co/d/hIFnx7K • Man's Search for Meaning by Victor Frankl: https://a.co/d/jiIH4Gk

We live in a time when you just can't plan out your life 3, 5, 10 years in advance and then follow 'the plan' - although our minds and desires for safety would love that. We live in a time when the world is changing fast, and we are each being 'called up' to new sacred assignments, ways of living and working that our soul signed up for. These 'soul stretches' and catalysts are calling for us each to step out of comfort zones and step into into a zone where we often can't see how it will work out, how it can work out and if it will work out. This is where the Feminine Wisdom teaching - the feminine super power of Stepping in the Unknown comes in. It's a different way of operating that most of us were not taught, but it is a REAL thing. In this Feminine Power Time, Stepping in the Unknown with Courage and Clarity to Chart the Path Ahead: Planning the Feminine Wisdom Way, the 3rd in our series on Feminine Wisdom, I'll share the wisdom teaching on Stepping in the Unknown. And make it personal for you so you can work with it and can step through the changes coming with grace and courage, feeling and being supported, including: Why the way we've been trained to plan and strategize and create goals won't work - and an elevated, wiser way to approach creating your work, life, relationships that does Wisdom about your Soul Codex - what it is, how it to activate, access and align with it so you can access the wisdom needed to chart your path ahead and find you way How you can find your way through the uncertainty and unknown - so you don't get lost in the dark or get scared and turn back or move too fast or stretch too far and screw yourself up How to create a 'path' for crossing whatever threshold your soul is calling you into - there is a wise way and a stupid way to make changes :) Stories about how I've navigated the unknown to make choices from courage, and worked with other women to cross thresholds - there is wisdom to tell us how to "do" this differently Personal reflection and meditation on your current threshold crossings - so we can make sure you don't try and straddle the grand canyon or get lost in the wilderness If you missed the previous Feminine Wisdom Series episodes, #68 on Intuitive Attunement & #67 on Synchronicity with guest Nilima Bhat from Shakti Leadership, tune in! I WOULD LOVE YOUR THOUGHTS ON WHAT YOU WANT MORE OF!! Finally the Feminine Power Time Survey is ready for your input. Please go to www.FemininePowerTimeSurvey.com and share your thoughts ...

Empower Your Inner Wisdom transformational program go to www.PathofSelfLove.org
Intuitive Attunement is my second favorite super power feminine wisdom word of the year. And I think you are going to LOVE it too! When you have it, and know how to cultivate it, you have the inner power to make the best choices for yourself, in your career, relationships, wealth, health, home. Without it, you are often being led by the cultural craziness and your own subconscious emotional commotion. Intuitive Attunement - you being 'attuned' from the inside out to Divine Wisdom and therefore your own soul wisdom - gives you access to a deep well of wisdom that's connected to your heart and soul - so you can stay true to yourself, and take leaps of faith that backed by sound wisdom. It surpasses the mind, which can only create what it has experienced before or seen in others, to access insight, guidance and possibility. But most of us were not taught how to develop nor strengthen our power of Intuitive Attunement, so we operate at half our power, make choices that are jaded by past experiences and often drive by fear, lack or scarcity. Which is why I've created this Feminine Wisdom Series, focused on a few of the aspects of Feminine Wisdom that we need as leaders and women now. Join me, Christine Arylo, feminine leadership advisor for this Feminine Power Time episode "Intuitive Attunement: Super Power Your Connection to Divine Wisdom" (#2 in the series) where we dive into: What is Intuitive Attunement? and why this is a word you want to add to your vocabulary and a skill you want to strengthen The 6 channels of Intuitive Power - and how to discern which ones are your strongest to attune to What blocks or muddles up your access to Divine Wisdom and your clarity to act in accordance with your inner wisdom? What is essential to make sure you have in your life to strengthen your inner clarity and be a clear channel to receive guidance and wisdom? ** And of course, we make this personal with a double dog feminine wisdom dare to attune to your inner wisdom and take a leap this week in an area of your life calling for change or expansion.** Tune in. Take the dare. And start to strengthen your Intuitive Attunement. To attend the free Path of Self Love Class on Transforming the Inner Critic and Empowering the Inner Wisdom go to www.SelfloveClass.com To learn more and register for the fall Feminine Wisdom Weekend in San Francisco, go to www.FeminineWisdomRetreat.com ** If you missed the first in the series on Feminine Wisdom "SYNCHRONICITY: The power of working with the flow" make sure to listen to the previous episode, #67 with special guest, Nilima Bhat, author of Shakti Leadership.
Of course we all want to live in the flow. Have things - invitations, opportunities, people, resources - 'come to us' vs having to go out and kill the proverbial meat or attack our lives and work like pushing a boulder up a hill. If given the choice between having to hustle, network like crazy, and make stuff happen OR having the experience where I'm guided to where to focus, when to act, where things come to me, I'm choosing the latter. Less stress, more spacious. Less pressure, more peace. But how do you create synchronicity? How do you get into the flow, and most important, how do you stay there? So what you NEED comes to you vs. you exhausting yourself physically to make it happen or mentally to figure out how to plan and strategize to happen? This is the realm of Feminine Wisdom. The feminine super powered way of living, leading and succeeding, that most of us were not taught in our traditional education or on the job training. Which is why it's the focus for this week's Feminine Power Time: "Synchronicity & Shakti Leadership: Working with Feminine Power so Things Happen for You Vs. Pushing and Planning" It's the 1st in a 3 part series (maybe 4, we'll see) on FEMININE WISDOM - what is it, how do you find it and how do you work with it? I invited a new soul sister to our session today, Nilima Bhat, author of Shakti Leadership, a woman I've been aware of for about 2 years, have wanted to meet, but instead of making it happen, the Great Mama orchestrated a meeting for us over Spring Equinox "unplanned" (more on that in the show, you;ll love this Synchroncity Story!) I invite you join Nilima and I for this feminine wisdom session, where together we will all explore: HOW Sychroncity works - you can't really make it happen, but you are an active participant in it happening. How does that work? How to tell when you are pushing vs. when you are in the feminine flow - how does it FEEL so you can know? The Inner Practices you can put into place to make sure you are operating in Synchronicity Receiving mode - so you can live in and move with the flow Why this powerful way of living and leading, where intuition and synchronicity are normal ways we operate isn't taught or talked about in our educational or on the job trainings. What our lack of access to our feminine power and wisdom has to do with why we push so hard, feel like we have to work so hard, and over plan as a way to feel okay How to start bringing more feminine wisdom, synchroncity, flow and Great Mama mojo into your life, so you are operating within your aligned center of power To learn more about Feminine Power Time and Christine Arylo, and receive past episodes and receive Christine's weekly Wisdom Letters, go to www.FemininePowerPodcast.com To learn more about Nilima Bhat and Shakti Leadership, including the book and fellowship, go to www.ShaktiLeadership.com To learn more about the Path of Self Love Teacher Training and School, go to www.PathofSelfLove.org
Whether you are looking to step into your leadership or not, this episode is a must listen for anyone interested in conscious business and spirituality. It will give you a whole new perspective on leadership and success, and leave you inspired to follow your inner wisdom as a way to step into your Higher power. For me, this conversation was rich in "a-ha" moments and left me with a profound feeling of connection to divine guidance. I hope you find something valuable (and maybe life-changing!) in this episode for yourself. In this episode, we talk about: How inviting feminine energy into the corporate environment can help companies become more balanced and integrated Shakti Leadership as a new paradigm of leadership through the work of inner transformation and self-mastery An embodied solution for creating success and impact from a consciousness of life-giving creativity and sustainability The importance of bringing the body into the conversation about leadership The balance of feminine and masculine in business What leadership has to do with spirituality, yoga and Star Wars The power of presence and how to become embodied Intuition VS strategy The role of social media and technology in creating success and elevating consciousness A practice you can do anytime to feel present and embodied Resources mentioned in this episode: Shakti Leadership website Shakti Leadership book Oct 2018-Jun 2019 Shakti Fellowship Program (Scholarship available) 12-minute Presence Practice (works right away, I tried it!)

I'm very excited to introduce today's guests:Nilima Bhat & Raj Sisodia, co-authors of Shakti Leadership and pioneers of the Conscious Capitalism Movement.They join me to talk about how qualities traditionally considered to be more ‘feminine' – such as empathy, compassion, vulnerability and even love – are helping businesses increase revenue and create higher levels of employee engagement and customer satisfaction.And this isn't just their opinion. They came to this interview packed with research and studies showing that companies that embody these qualities significantly outperform businesses that prize domination, competition, aggression, and winning at any and all costs.These two make such a powerful case for the need to bring a people-first mindset into every aspect of business that if I could make this episode required listening for business leaders, I would.So have a listen and learn more about what traditional, profit-oriented businesses are getting wrong, and how a new generation of companies is setting itself up for long-term success.Topics Discussed in This Episode:[00:02:46] The existential crisis that led to Nilima leaving the corporate world and look for answers elsewhere[00:05:08] Raj's background and what led him to Conscious Capitalism and his current line of work with Nilima[00:11:27] The research that shows that people are looking for more feminine qualities in leadership[00:12:38] The concept of shakti leadership[00:17:06] How to talk about the concept of shakti leadership in a way that's accessible to anyone, regardless of spiritual background[00:21:58] Raj's experience with the concept of shakti[00:27:30] The positive aspects of masculine qualities[00:30:04] What it looks like for a company to embody a balance of feminine and masculine principles[00:32:57] What companies look like when they have too many negative masculine or feminine traits[00:37:52] How to create a company that embodies a balance of positive masculine and feminine traits[00:45:00] The response to corporate pushback against ideas like the seven levels of consciousness[00:52:23] Data that supports the fact that companies that follow the values of conscious capitalism do better[00:56:34] Resources that Raj and Nilima recommend
Last year I had the honor of speaking with Nilima Bhat about her new book, workshop and lecture series Shakti Leadership : Embracing Feminine and Masculine Power in Business. Nilima is a world renowned author, speaker, facilitator and visionary and may be one of the most insightful, bright, and balanced souls I have ever met. The principles of Shakti leadership are applicable and can be integrated not only to big businesses but to any system or organization. I think we all are aware that inequality, sexual misconduct, and the abuse of power and control to mistreat others exists and most know it is wrong. Nilima believes we should have “how to” books to get us through life’s most challenging times -so she writes them! There actually is a formula within us all to restore male and feminine balance. This book is just one of the products of her evolution through her life’s journey. We also discuss her fascinating and colorful life that led to this point and this endeavor. Besides being one of the most remarkable people I have met as a human being, she is a highly respected business woman and leader. I hope you read all the show notes to link to her projects, participation opportunities and experiences – impressive is an understatement! Since this interview there has been a HUGE shift, rise and movement of voices powerfully and courageously saying enough! We have had enough of this unbalance of power, enough imbalance in the work place, enough inequality, enough abuse of power and enough sexual misconduct. The principles of Shakti leadership do not bash males – they are recipes for both males and females to restore balance and peace. The outcome would be holding the value of a free and fulfilled world and power for all. I asked Nilima a few days ago about her thoughts re: the big shifts and movements this year. I also asked specifically about the #meetoo, #enoughisenough and #nomore movements. Below are her thoughts in response in her own words: The #Metoo movement is a direct outcome of the rising tide of Shakti that we write about in the book. Women are waking up, growing up and showing up after centuries of not knowing their power. It is also a time now to end the battle of the sexes and hospice the Patriarchy. To become fully Human. And to #RiseInLoveTogether. As Whole Man and Whole Woman. The only way to come into our full power and deal with the challenges at hand, is to become psychologically whole. ie, develop and express our mature feminine as well as our mature masculine values and behaviors, consciously. We can do this best when we practice Presence; that state of equanimity where we reclaim our true and unlimited inner power or Shakti; and are able to lead the context instead of becoming a victim of it. It is two years since Shakti Leadership was launched and it feels as if its REAL value and application is now. It may well have heralded this time of reckoning and for which we since launched a campaign called #Let'sRiseInLoveTogether, aimed at restoring Gender Relations. Shakti Leadership is a call to both men and women to come into their wholeness and hold the Sky up together.

Does emotion and caring have a place in business? Of course. Conscious Capitalism co-founder Raj Sisodia and Nilima Bhat discuss their new book, Shakti Leadership.
