A lot of women feel overwhelmed by the constant juggle… life, career, business, family, taking care of your health - all the things! With so many balls in the air, it can feel like you’re not doing a good job of anything.

If you feel this way, trust me, you're not alone. Many have reached out to me with the same question: How do I be my best when life keeps throwing so many things at me? 

Staying in your A-game doesn’t mean upholding a standard of perfection. It means being the best version of you that you can be, even when you're faced with challenges. 

And the best version of you isn't static; it changes all the time as you grow and evolve.

At the heart of it all is a proactive mindset. Embracing this mindset sets the foundation for making empowered choices that propel you forward, no matter what life throws your way.

The Juggling Act

In my book, You Always Have a Choice, I talk about categorising the different areas of your life into three balls: crystal, rubber, and concrete. Crystal balls represent your top priorities and values - if these shatter, it would be catastrophic. Rubber balls can bounce back if dropped temporarily and concrete balls are the ones you juggle out of obligation. By identifying and letting go of these concrete balls, you free yourself from unnecessary burden, which is so empowering.

The Power of the Pause

Pausing isn't just a luxury; it's a necessity for clarity and control. I encourage my clients to pause for 10 minutes at the end of each day to breathe, reflect and themselves questions like, "What's most important to maintain my A-game today?" This simple act not only takes you into your parasympathetic nervous system but also empowers you to reset your focus and align with what truly matters.

Mindset is Your Superpower

Our mindset shapes everything—our actions, beliefs, and ultimately, our performance. It's the lens through which we view life's challenges. Shifting from "I have to do everything" to "I choose what's most important for my A-game" transforms obligations into choices. This simple shift can be a game changer in helping you align your actions with your values and long-term goals.



I encourage you to integrate these concepts into your daily life. Whether it's prioritising tasks, allowing time for a thoughtful pause, or transforming your mindset, each step brings you closer to your A-game. Remember, it's not about perfecting it all but choosing wisely in the midst of the juggle.

Making Empowered Choices to Stay in Your A-Game

I visited Siem Reap, Cambodia many years ago, and have a surface-level understanding of the challenges faced there. Aviv Palti not only visited Siem Reap, but together with his family founded an organisation to help break the poverty cycle in Cambodia through the power of education. 



Aviv Palti is the CEO of Lifestyle Brands and founder of the Cambodia Rural Students Trust (CRST). The journey started unexpectedly when Aviv's 14-year-old daughter, Steph, was rejected from a school volunteering trip to Cambodia. Upset and dejected, the Palti family decided to seize the opportunity as a family mission. Two months later, six of them found themselves in Cambodia, volunteering at a rural school outside Siem Reap.



What began as teaching English evolved into a comprehensive program. CRST supports students not only through tuition but also by providing living allowances, healthcare, and mentorship. This support allows them to stay focused on their education and future success. The ripple effect to their extended family is huge, breaking the cycle of poverty that so many Cambodian students are trapped in. 



Empowering Others: A Leadership Philosophy

The philosophy of building others up underscores CRST, rooted in the belief that empowerment is key to sustainable change. Aviv emphasised the importance of leaders knowing when to step aside and support others, especially when they stumble. It’s about building resilience and capability rather than merely stepping in to fix problems.



Leading by Doing: The CRST Model

CRST’s innovative model places its students at the helm. From early on, students are taught to lead and manage the NGO. They are given roles equivalent to government positions—NGO Manager, Deputy NGO Manager, Education Manager, etc. This hands-on leadership develops their skillsets and instills in them a deep sense of responsibility and ownership, making CRST a sustainable model that equips the leaders of tomorrow.



Building Trust and Sustainability

One of the key elements Aviv highlighted was the importance of trust. From the onset, CRST committed to seeing its students through high school and university. This commitment, coupled with transparency and accountability, has built strong relationships with students and their families. Every year, new student selection teams, composed of current students, engage in a meticulous selection process that involves meeting families and village chiefs, ensuring a deep-rooted trust within the community.



Make sure you check out Aviv’s book, "Empowered," which is designed as a leadership guide. Featuring stories of CRST alumni who worked to become the future social leaders of their country, Aviv’s message is that leadership is a set of responsibilities anyone can learn, practise and own.

How One Family’s Mission Transformed Thousands of Lives with Aviv Palti

Can you believe we're already at the 201st episode of Leading You? It feels like just yesterday that I hit the record button for the very first time, and I’m so grateful for the support I get from each of you.

This milestone has made me reflect on just how much we’ve uncovered about leadership—what it truly means to lead oneself and others effectively.

Today I want to share the seven truths that have stuck with me the most from these past 200 episodes. Whether you’re new to leadership or a seasoned pro, these insights will help elevate your leadership to new heights.
The Power of the Pause
You've heard me talk about this endlessly, and for good reason. Pausing before reacting is a leadership superpower. It allows us to assess situations, make informed decisions, and communicate more clearly. This space for reflection helps avoid emotional responses, fostering a more thoughtful leadership style. One of our guests, Shivani Gupta, shared an excellent example when she stepped away from her business for six months to figure out her next move. This intentional pause allowed her to think about what truly fuels her purpose.
Self-Care Fuels Success
Effective leadership starts with looking after yourself. Prioritising your physical, mental, and emotional well-being is crucial for preventing burnout and sustaining long-term success. Leaders who model self-care not only maintain their health but also encourage a healthier work culture within their teams. It's easy to put self-care on a backburner while we focus on busyness, but it’s important to remember that self-care is not a luxury; it’s a necessity for effective leadership.
Vulnerability Strengthens Resilience and Trust
Vulnerability is no longer seen as a weakness but as a powerful leadership tool. Leaders who openly admit their mistakes and share personal challenges build deep trust with their teams. Through my own experiences and those shared by my guests, I've seen how being authentic and vulnerable fosters stronger connections and more collaborative environments.
Empowered Choices Drive Growth
Leadership is about making conscious, empowered decisions. Whether it's navigating tough conversations or setting boundaries, intentional choices significantly shape how effectively a leader can grow and inspire their teams. It’s about being proactive rather than reactionary. Making empowered choices sets the tone for growth and purpose, not only for you but for your team as well.
Emotional Intelligence Builds Strong Leaders
While high IQ can make you the smartest person in the room, it’s emotional intelligence (EQ) that makes you an effective and influential leader. High EQ involves self-regulation, recognising how your emotions impact others, and understanding what motivates you. Leaders with high emotional intelligence inspire loyalty and cohesion within their teams, resolving conflicts more effectively. I’ve seen this in guests like Catherine Duncan and Adam Rouse, who demonstrate strong EQ in their leadership practices.
Resilience Comes from Self-Mastery
Resilience is a great tool for any leader, because it helps you to stay composed under pressure, adapt to challenges, and maintain focus on long-term goals. Unfortunately, as Peter Baines shared when I spoke to him, you can’t build resilience in your comfort zone. You need to face challenges head-on, learn from setbacks, and stay grounded in your purpose. It's about leading yourself through difficulties with the tools to overcome and grow from those experiences.
Adaptability is Essential
Adaptability is one of the most important traits a leader can possess. Flexibility and openness to change allow leaders to respond proactively to new challenges. Carlo Pagano’s episode on relevance underscores this perfectly. Leaders who embrace change and guide their teams through uncertainty thrive in dynamic environments, ensuring that they remain relevant and effective in leading both others and themselves.



These seven truths, gathered from hundreds of conversations and personal experiences, have been instrumental in shaping my leadership style and I hope they can do the same for you. Thank you for being an essential part of this incredible journey. Your support has been invaluable, and I look forward to continuing this adventure with you.

Remember, leadership starts with you and the choices you make today will define the leader you become tomorrow. So, lead with intention, lead with heart, and keep growing.

7 Truths to Elevate Your Leadership from 200 Conversations

When you hit your 50s, you reach a point where you just don’t care what other people think. With so much life experience under your belt, you know what you want, you know who you are and you’re ready to show the world what you’ve got. 

I recently had the pleasure of sharing a raw and real conversation with Patrina Jones, a woman who personifies this essence. 

Patrina is a multi-award winning and highly accomplished journalist with a long and successful career in radio and television. Starring on top-rating shows for more than 30 years, Patrina is currently a leading personality and News Presenter on the No 1 Christian O’Connell Show on Melbourne’s Gold 104.3 and is a regular guest on Channel 9’s Today Extra. She won the coveted ‘Glenn Daniel’ Award, Best News Presenter FM in 2023 and has been nominated again this year.

As a woman in a male dominated industry, working ridiculous hours and weekends, Patrina gave her all to the industry because she truly loves what she does. It’s this passion that has fuelled her to keep going and find resilience through life’s challenges. 

One of the most striking moments in our discussion was about how menopause can affect women’s professional lives. Imagine working for decades honing your skills, climbing the corporate ladder, only to find yourself battling the symptoms of menopause with no support. Patrina shared that 25 percent of women going through menopause will actually leave their roles because the symptoms can be so challenging. 

What makes it even harder is the sheer volume of responsibilities we juggle—careers, family, friendships. “We’re told that we can have everything, aren’t we?” Patrina said. “But we’re bloody knackered.” It summed up the sentiment perfectly.

Towards the end of our conversation, Patrina shared her sage advice to not let anyone tell you who you are or what you can or cannot do. Stand in your power, be yourself and don’t worry what other people think.
