• Have you ever had that feeling you’re not being you?

  • That you’re looking at people around you wondering. If I was just a little more like them …..

  • Do you want to build a culture in your team or company where everyone feels included and is recognised for their unique contribution

The Impactful Authenticity Podcast shares the stories, insights, challenges and learnings from a range of different people around these questions.

This is a time to let us recognise that we don’t have to pretend to be a certain person and we can start to get a little more comfortable with who we really are.

To reflect on what makes us individually so special.

No-one is perfect. If we hold ourselves to this standard we will fail. Getting things wrong is what helps us grow and become better people.

Use these precious 30 minutes of the show. To give yourself permission to reflect on who you are.

Each episode has triggered interesting learnings and reflections I’ve taken for myself and I hope it does the same for you.
