I’ve started a new ‘playlist’ on my YouTube Channel - titled ‘Clear Insights’. These are short videos up to 2 minutes long which look at a singular insight that may help you with your work, leadership, and life.

As a parent, I see the world that my four children (blended family) are inheriting, and know that they will face countless ‘-isms’ and fears and injustices and challenges… and I feel I need to do more. With the loving support from my Wife, I’ve started Insightful Path to help use the talents and experience that I’ve been blessed with, to help make the world our four children inherit… better.

This is what I produced this past Sunday – hoping it inspires you to connect with the idea that you too can change your story. You can become an artist of your life, if you are brave enough (and have the support of those that believe in you)!

We all have the pains and wounds to our souls that we do not share… but may be triggered by, at times, events that catch us unawares. This is a post about our shared humanity. About connection, and the power of enabling one to bring their full self to whatever moment they are in even if that moment is difficult.

I had the privilege of delivering two micro-learning sessions for my coaching alma mater, the Institute of Executive Coaching and Leadership (IECL)…helping over 100 coaches across the globe to engage with their ‘inner voice’ and connect with the place where they can find the Good in service to the world.

…do not lead from positional authority, but rather, engage with your moral authority and people will follow…

…working within a highly pressurised context as a leader is fraught with risk. But to navigate the challenges…

…in the habitual frame of mind, being seen to ‘not know’ is received as ‘less than’… but there is REAL opportunity and power in not-knowing…

…i wonder if people realise…it takes real bravery to be who you are, regardless of the fear… you never know someone’s back-story.

…as a leader, you’re not in charge of people, you have to take care of people in your charge…

…everywhere in our lives we have the chance to achieve a greater meaning through how we address the difficulties we face…

…our ability to help others reach their potential will increase as we increase our skill and courage in talking about the difficult subjects…

…goals that are NOT set, are rarely reached…

…if you are to be ready to influence change, you need to hone your skills now…
