Today, I am very excited to launch the first conversation on this podcast and it could not be with anyone more exciting. I welcome Thomas Emerson, founder of the Praksis movement studio and the Independents for Canberra political party. He is a great inspiration for me and his community and our conversation is a wealth of advice and insight. Tom shares invaluable lessons learned from his journey of self-awareness, leadership and building healthy communities. He provides practical advice on taking first steps into self-awareness for leaders, the two things you need to master in order to follow through on your vision and gut feelings, and the number one thing that leaders need to consider – but most often don’t know about. We also talk about the myth of balance between work/rest, feminine/masculine, action/reflection, focus/expansion, why as a leader you don’t need to have all the answers, the importance of taking small steps and incrementalism, and about our opinions about woo-woo ;)
