KEY TAKEAWAYS

• Having a firm set of self beliefs means you can achieve goals that others will say you’ll never reach.
• Every job advert wants people that are confident with good inter personal skills and unfortunately these skills aren’t in any kind of formal education and instead picked up along the way.
• Do you spend enough time thinking about your own standards, qualities and principles? To be a good leader, you need to know your own before expecting these of others.
• Working out “what’s enough?” and what your capacity is will prevent any burnout and also give you the space to check in with where you are in terms of your own journey and purpose.
• Despite the old saying, failure is always an option and can become a valuable lesson and open unexpected or unplanned for opportunities.

BEST MOMENTS

‘Obviously with the last two years we lost a lot of money and that wasn’t the main part, I think we lost a bit of our purpose about what do you do when you’re so passionate about helping others?’

‘I don’t think I really flourished at school, I wasn’t told I couldn’t achieve things.’

‘We talk about leading others, but we don’t often talk about leading ourselves and I think personal leadership is a huge area that we need to focus on.’

‘I’ve failed lots of times in life and I think the biggest lesson I’ve learnt about that is that failure’s OK. It’s OK to fail because you are giving it a go. You are out there.’

ABOUT THE SHOW

People with purpose make a difference. Imagine a world where more people can just get their purpose out of them, into a plan and then actually make it happen. What a world that would be - People everywhere finding meaning and harnessing that to bring inspiration and energy to each and every day, changing lives for the better. But no-one ever achieved anything on their own - we all have something unique to bring and that means we all have to play our part - if we want to go far we have to go together and lead or serve towards a vision of the world we want to see. Everyone has a story to tell and this show is where these stories come to life.
