Self-trust expands when you stop trying to be perfect and start trusting yourself to adjust.

In this episode, I explore why the pressure to "get it right" often stems from fear and how releasing that pressure can help you build deeper self-trust.

Humans are wired for survival, which makes us naturally fearful; but most modern leadership challenges are not about life-or-death situations. When we’re driven by fear, we become tense and closed off, making it harder to access intuition and wisdom.

Self trust grows not from always being right but from being willing to learn, adjust, and focus on the greater good. Letting go of the need to be right allows wisdom to flow, decisions to become clearer, and leadership to feel more natural and grounded.

People respect leaders who own their mistakes, not those who pretend to have all the answers. And trust grows when you embrace learning and course correction instead of perfection.

If you want to unlock your full potential, you have to be willing to take risks, try new things, and sometimes get it "wrong".

After almost two years away, I'm back with new content for Leadership Behind the Scenes! In this episode I reflect on why I left the podcast to focus on Female Inner Power—and why coming back now feels so right.

This episode is all about the power of experimentation. I share personal insights and real-life coaching examples to show you why experimenting is essential for growth and success, why the fear of making the "wrong" decision can block creativity and progress, and how stepping into the unknown with curiosity and courage can lead to incredible breakthroughs.

It’s the final episode!

After three and a half years the Leadership Behind the Scenes podcast is coming to an end. But I’m definitely not going anywhere – a brand new podcast is coming! (And the Leadership Behind the Scenes episodes will continue to be available, so you can still go back and listen to earlier ones).

The Female Inner Power podcast: inspiration from strong women leaders is launching at the end of March, with a mix of solo episodes and interviews exploring what it means to lead from our female inner power, balancing our feminine and masculine energies.

In this episode, I bring you:

3 key learnings from the Leadership Behind the Scenes podcast:

1. Why you should always be putting yourself in situations where you’re around peers who are even just one big, courageous step ahead of you – in the direction you want to go.

2. How I discovered the importance of planning and batching.

3. The power of simply keeping on taking the next, imperfect step.
