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.

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.

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.

Podcast highlights and recommendations

And I share a few of the episodes I have recommended the most, episodes that really stand out for me, and that you, my audience, have most loved and returned to – and why these are worth listening to again.

And remember, now is a good time to breathe.

It means being less than what is possible for you.

We can all get complacent as we get older. At school we get used to relying on others tell us how or where to grow, but there are fewer expectations on us to grow and develop once we leave school. Unless we challenge and motivate ourselves to grow, there’s no guarantee that we’ll keep expanding.

When we’re not stretching, growing, or expanding we’re staying stagnant. 

And when we stay stagnant we can go backwards, as our comfort zone starts to shrink.

In this episode I share three signs that you are playing small, and ask you two important questions that will help you shift into playing big – and get playful about your personal growth.

“It's very easy to start playing small. And what do I mean by that? Well, it's when you are being less than what is possible for you, not living up to your full potential. You keep doing what you did last year, two years ago, five years ago, maybe with a few new things you've learned, but nothing much is stretching or growing. You're playing small because you're not expanding. But it's not obvious how to expand, and so we get complacent. It's very stagnant and we go backwards. And what's fascinating about us humans is if we don't keep expanding it, our comfort zone actually shrinks.”

Or are you afraid of being ‘full of yourself’? Getting complacent?

Most people love getting great feedback from others. But what about from yourself?

Why does praising yourself make you a better leader?

In this episode I share three reasons why praising yourself is an important element in being a grounded, courageous and successful leader. We are not talking fake compliments or self-arrogance. This is something entirely different. 

Listen to explore what happens and becomes possible for you when you start praising yourself more, and remembering you are worthy.

“No one likes a needy person. It’s just not attractive. And there is no leader power in being needy. It's important to praise ourselves so we don't need it from others. When you work damn hard on a project, it's important that you tell yourself, “Well done. I'm so incredibly proud of you,” because then you don't need it from others. It's nice if they notice and take the time to say it, but it's important not to need it. Because then you’re not in your power. If you want to show up and lead with impact, filling yourself up with praise is really important.”

What do you fear might happen if you’re not in control?

Are you holding life tightly – and shutting yourself off from surprises and new possibilities, ideas, innovations?

Our world is fast.

As we’ve learned over the past couple of years, anything could happen at any moment.

We can’t control what’s on the outside of us.

But we can learn to feel in control in our INNER world, and then we can handle the pace of life better. 

It’s time to slow down, ground yourself, and be in your inner calm. I this episode I share several different ideas to help you feel more in control – by letting go.

“Let me ask you, do you like to feel like you're in control? Our world is fast. I don't see it slowing down at all, it is moving faster and faster. Let's be clear, you're never in control. We're not in control. Something big or small might happen any moment. But we do like to feel or believe or think that we are in control. So how can you be in control? There's no chance of ever controlling what's on the outside. But what does make a difference is slowing down. When we are grounded and more calm, that's when we can handle the fast pace. And that's when not only does it feel better to you, you'll also have a much bigger, better impact.”

Do you think of yourself as head of your department first? Or as an executive team member?

In this episode I talk about how when leaders think of themselves FIRST AND FOREMOST as senior leadership team members, everything shifts and the whole team becomes more productive and impactful.

Because you’re not there to defend the needs of your department.

(Or to pump up your own ego!)

As executive team members, you’re all jointly responsible for the whole of your organisation. You’re all in it together.

And when you take joint responsibility, you take away blame – and start to build deep seated trust.

Sound simple? Well, it’s not quite as easy as it sounds. 

So what is required for this to work?

Listen now.

[3:04] “What's the one shift that all executives, all members of a senior leadership team need to make? Well, they need to think of themselves first and foremost as executive team members, as senior leadership team members. Instead of first and foremost, CFO, first and foremost, Marketing Director, group HRG, HR director.”

[4:15] “How good a team member are you? Or are you mostly out to secure the agenda of the marketing team? Or even worse, you could just be there for your own glory, your own personal ego.”

[05:18] “Together, we are all responsible for the whole of this organisation.”

[6:52] “It is so different when we could feel like we're in it all together. And we're all jointly responsible.”

[7:31] “We have to find ways to respect each other, to see each others' credibility, to build deep-seated trust, which means you feel like you can trust them, they have your back, and you have theirs. We have to find that kind of deep trust that is genuine.”

Forgiveness is often something that’s kept for therapy, not the workplace.

So what’s the connection?

When you’re holding a grudge or you’re angry at a previous boss or organisation for a past situation (such as the way something was handled, redundancy, being passed over for promotion, unfair dismissal) feeling sad, angry or disappointed is a normal response.

But if it’s been a while and you’re still feeling it, you haven’t shifted. You’re still stuck – and if you want to move forward and increase your leadership power, you need to get unstuck!

In this episode I share:

• A definition of forgiveness that will change the way you think and help you to process past events and your feelings about them;
• A helpful strategy to help you let go of your past and release it;
• Why it’s important to move out of the past and reroute your energy back to your leadership;
• How you can reframe your story and uncover the gifts hidden in your past experiences.

And remember, now is a good time to breathe. 

In my experience there are four very simple things you can do to start loving your life more, even if it’s not perfect. 

1. Tell yourself you love your life

Find your happiness from the inside out: what you tell yourself has a huge impact on whether you love your life or not. 

2. Be present

Joy is right here, right now.  So don’t miss this moment! Something changes in us when we focus on the present moment and remember that whatever your mind is distracting you with isn’t helpful, relevant or useful.

3. Practice gratitude and appreciation

It’s simple: when we’re grateful, more good things happen to us. No matter what your situation, we all have things to be grateful for. Don’t forget to appreciate all the little things. 

4. Do more things you love more of the time

Stop bargaining with yourself (‘If I do X, then I get to do Y.’) Give yourself permission to do more of what you love, starting now. There’s always time to do what you love - and when you believe this, it becomes true.

Perhaps answers to big life questions.

Or just answers that will help get you through the day or onto the next stage.

When you can’t find an answer, what do you do?

Questions and answers come from very different energy; the frequency of an answer will be very different from the frequency of a question. So to receive an answer you have to shift out of the question…

Listen to this episode to figure out:

• Where your clarity comes from
• Which of two different places you want to be accessing information from (because only one will serve you).
• How you can get yourself into the right place to let go, open yourself up to the idea that possibility is here, and cross over mentally to the place where you’ll find all your answers.

But a lot of the learning we need is deeply personal and depending on your organisation they might offer something appropriate or not. And some organisations offer nothing at all.

It’s all too easy to get complacent, lazy, reactive with your own learning journey.

Just because you’re no longer in fulltime education, doesn’t mean your learning should stop. 

In fact, the best leaders are lifelong learners.

It’s time to get curious about what you want to learn and work on.

Time to take charge of your own learning instead of outsourcing the responsibility for your growth to a corporate entity.

Listen to this episode to help you:

• Explore what you want to learn
• Decide where and how to spend your learning time and energy 
• Figure out how to get the help and input you need, and which questions to ask, to help you learn and grow
• Design a curriculum you’re excited about – so you can enjoy the learning

But what about the anger that doesn’t go away? Staying mad doesn’t serve us, and it can be toxic to hang on to anger. 

So what can we do?

In this episode I talk through my process for releasing anger and moving forward.

You can just listen – or, if you’re experiencing this situation right now, you could treat this episode as a mini coaching session. Do the process I outline, pause when needed, and work through it, journalling, reflecting, shifting.

Listen to the whole episode to hear my favourite mantra for releasing anger.

You can use this process on yourself, and on others:

Step 1: Ask yourself why you’re still holding on to this anger. 

Step 2: If you hold on to this anger, are you likely to get the good outcomes you are looking for?

Step 3: What is it costing you to hold on to this anger?

Step 4: What would you like to happen going forward – and why?

Step 5: Accept what is and what has happened. State the facts.

Step 6: What is it that you’re really longing for in this situation?

Step 7: What’s the next step you can take to make that happen? (it might not be what you think - and sometimes what happens next is a little bit of magic!)

I’ve had so many leaders ask me “What if they cry?” or “What if I open a can of worms and don’t know what to do?”

In this episode, I tell the story of what happened when I coached one large retail organisation through massive organisational change, and I share why making space for people to air their feelings out loud - even, and perhaps particularly, when the content is difficult - makes change much easier to manage.

Let’s think about:

When you try to shut down people’s complaints and feelings down they don’t go away; in fact often they will just get stronger.

• People won’t be upset for long if they are feeling heard, but they can stay upset for years when they believe no one listened.
• Most people will make an internal shift for themselves if you give them a forum to be heard.
• You lose loyalty if you don’t allow people to have their feelings. 
• If you want people to feel anything, you have to let them feel everything.
• The container matters – don’t let those worms wriggle free! Set up a safe container to hold space for people’s feelings.

And remember, when you show people compassion they will thank you, even in the most difficult of circumstances.

If this is a conversation you would like to continue, come over to https://noominatan.com/ and drop me a line. I’d be so happy to support you with this.

And remember, now is a great time to breathe.

Have you noticed how women often connect around the lowest common denominator? Even underplay and undersell themselves to each other? 

There’s a good reason for that. Throughout history, woman have needed each other for safety and survival. So outshining other women never felt like a good idea – it seemed safer not to shine than be fully in our power. 

But by doing the three things I talk about in this episode, we can all be in our power and build stronger female relationships as a result.

1. Have a bragging session! Things become real when there are witnesses to our accomplishments – especially things we wouldn’t normally celebrate. 

2. See the strength in another person’s pain and struggle. Pity makes us feel weak, so practise seeing the strength in the other person instead. 

3. Listen and filter from love. Be present and actually listen – without criticising, judging or making it about you! Your energy matters more than anything you can say, so send love.

Listen now.

If you enjoy this episode, check out the Female Inner Power Club – it’s a magical space, with many different resources to strengthen your inner power, and a safe space to connect with other women looking to uplift themselves and each other. Members of the Club report increased happiness, better job offers, stronger intuition, more ease and better quality lives.

And remember, now is a good time to breathe. 

Because if that’s your belief, you are probably overwhelmed, lost in the weeds and you can no longer see what’s important.

And if you’re saying that you don’t have time to think, you’re probably spending your time doing all the wrong things. 

In this episode we explore the questions you can ask yourself to get back to what matters:

1. Do you stop and wash your mind clean between meetings? (Are you showing up like a sharp knife, ready to slice through tasks and problems – or are you showing up blunt, slowing everything down, doing things badly?)
2. How much of what you’re doing is actually worth doing? What’s most important, right now? (You know the answer.)
3. What do you need to do to show up?

It’s time to blow up every list you’ve ever made (you will never get it all done), understand where you’re going, and remember that 20% of what you’re doing creates 80% of the result.

In this episode I dispel some of the myths around work/life balance, and talk about four key ideas to take on board if you want to achieve extraordinary results in life and work ‒ without getting burned out.

1. Balance is not static. The things you need to prioritise, and the time you need to spend on them, will fluctuate day to day, week to week, month to month. Extraordinary results require extraordinary focus on one area ‒ but not all the time.

2. It will take as much time as you give it. So be deliberate, and choose how much time you’re going to spend.

3. Think about which part of your day you will give to something. When are you at your best? It’s not the amount of time you spend, it’s also the quality of time, so think about what energy you are bringing.

4. It’s not that you don’t have the time (it really isn’t!). What are you prioritising? Be honest! Call yourself on your own BS. Where might you want to choose differently? And remember that in order to say yes to something, we need to say no to something else.

It's a big leap, and it's a big investment (whether it's your company's money or your own), so you want to make sure you choose the right coach for you. 

In this episode I share some of the questions to ask and the things to look out for when you’re looking for a coach (and why these are so important), including:

• Do you feel comfortable with them? Comfortable enough to share some really deep and personal stuff with them? Comfortable enough for total honesty?
• Where do they come from? Why did they get started on coaching? What do they believe their coaching is for? 
• What’s their philosophy, and what are the beliefs that they hold about life and leadership?
• What is their worldview? What is their secret (or not so secret) agenda?

There isn't a simple three step formula. But there are three questions you can ask yourself that will really help you with this.

1. What are you hiding? (You won’t inspire anyone by being bland!)
2. Are you trying to get this inspirational message from a place of your rational logical mind? (Because when was inspiration ever a rational, logical thing?)
3. What excites you about the thing you are trying to inspire others around? (If you're not lit up about the the message you want to pass on, forget about inspiring anyone else.)

When you have a strong intuition, you are more powerful, you make decisions more confidently, and you make them faster. You're not so reliant on others; you are more tapped into your inner power. It's just more joyful, and there's more ease. You can trust yourself in your decision making process. And that feels great. 

So why is it so hard to trust our intuition?

In this episode I share the reasons why it’s so hard to do – and how you can learn to befriend and strengthen your intuition by:

• Realising that while your rational, logical, conscious mind thinks it’s in charge, it is picking up trillions of pieces of subconscious information every day. 
• Listening to the little hunches and quiet whispers from your unconscious mind – and learning not to second guess, think too long or hesitate. 
• Honouring and trusting what your intuition brings, taking little action steps and seeing what comes next.

When your intuition is strong your life will feel so much more fun. You'll be much more in your flow, you'll expand your inner power and everything will become much easier.

How can you leverage powerful peer support in your life?

In this episode I dive into your most undervalued resource in terms of future career success: your peers. And share three reasons why you really want to look at your peer relationships if you want to have a brighter, more successful future. 

These are three really valuable things that can support your personal growth, your leadership ability, and your future success possibilities.

There are plenty of people who manage to be successful, that don't do their inner work. But they usually break a little (or probably a whole lot) along the way. They might break their relationships, their health, their finances.

If you want to be successful from the inside out, lead for something bigger than yourself, and you want to enjoy the journey at the same time, you need to tap into your inner power.

In this episode I share the three parts that make up your inner power: the systemic, the intuitive, and the practical.

• Systemic: you are not living and working independently of every one around you and of everything you came from. You are massively impacted, shaped, and bound by where you come from and what you were born into.
• Intuitive: if you want to be a faster, better, more brilliant decision maker, you’ve got to strengthen your intuition and allow something more than your conscious human intellect to guide you. Practice connecting with your intuition and inner guidance daily, until you trust yourself more than you trust anyone or anything else.
• Practical: Inner power also comes from your practical habits. It comes from how you show up, how you carry yourself and how you speak. A huge part of the practical piece is knowing your values, who you are, and what you are for. What are you for in the world? What do you care about more than you care about your own fear? What matters to you more than your fear of being judged your fear of getting it wrong?

But there have been so many really rich learnings from this time.

In this episode I share my learnings from the year of COVID. As you listen, I’d like you to notice which lessons are true for you - and what else have you learned or noticed about yourself?

For me, some of the things that have come up have been:

• Our creativity needs to be nurtured in silence, space and retreat
• Slowing down is paramount for health and productivity (and we can’t be equally productive on all days, or at all times or seasons)
• When we reconnect with our inner power (especially our female inner power) we can inspire and uplift ourselves and others
• We need to be aware of our comfort zones shrinking, and focus on expanding again so we can tap back into our courage and potential 
• We have more freedom and possibility than we think, when we give ourselves the space and time to follow our flow and get clarity

Listen now, and start thinking about what you’ve learned in the past year - and how you can act on it now.

If you'd like some support on how to trust yourself, connect with your inner power and stretch out of your comfort zone, check out my freebies page! You'll find lots of great stuff here, including online courses and workshops. 

You wonder where you’re going wrong. Maybe you start to think you had better just stop trying to help your colleagues. 

This definitely isn’t about not helping. Creating a culture of helping each other in the workplace is important and a good thing. But offering your help in the wrong way can backfire majorly and make things worse.

So what do you need to pay attention to, to ensure that the help you want to offer lands in the right place?

In this episode I talk through the things you need to consider when offering your help to your colleagues, including:

• Relationships and interpersonal dynamics
• Why you need to put yourself in the other person’s shoes
• The questions you should ask yourself before offering to help someone at work.

Have you ever noticed that the people who give the most are very often not the ones who are promoted, valued or appreciated? 

In this episode I talk about the Law of Exchange, what can happen when someone is an over-giver (and why) and how the flow of giving and receiving has to be balanced if you want to feel - and be - appreciated, and get rewarded for your hard work.

You will learn:

• What to do if you suspect you’re giving too much
• What you can you do if someone who works for you is an over-giver
• Where the pattern of over-giving comes from
• How to get the balance right - and start giving differently

What should I do next?
How do I find my dream job?
Should I start my own business?
Should I become a coach?
I’ve just been made redundant - how do I figure out what the right next step is?

So, what do you do when you don’t know what to do?

It’s common for people not to know how to make these decisions when they’re at a crossroads. The answers are out there, but often we’re asking the wrong questions. We start from the wrong place, looking at it from the outside and asking ourselves what should we ‘be’.

But rather than focusing on job titles, it’s better to think about the experience you want to have - and how you want to feel.  

In this episode I give you the right questions to ask so you can explore from the inside out. If you can, listen with a notebook and write down your answers - you might be surprised what you learn!

Then I had my first-born, and as anyone with children knows, sticking to a habit that requires you to dedicate time to yourself in the hours when your kid is awake… yeah…good luck with that…

But meditation is so important to me, it honestly makes everything else in my life better, that I have found a way to stick to it, even now that there are two young kids that call me mum.

And this is how I cracked the code of the habit place holder.

See doing something once is not tricky, it’s making it a habit that’s the really challenging bit. So, in this episode I share, through my experience of meditating with kids, how I discovered the habit place holder, how it works and how you can combine it with Kaizen, a Japanese concept, to help you really get that thing to become a habit that sticks.

The how of an ending has massive implications for how you feel about yourself, the organisation you’re leaving and the beginning that needs to come after.

In this episode I share 6 reasons why corporate endings really matter and my top tip for what you can do, if you’re standing in front of a job ending, to make that ending as good as possible.

And if you’re the messenger, that needs to tell someone else, that they no longer have a job, I share my top tip for how you can make that experience just that little bit better.

I also introduce the concept of Human-Friendly Leadership and I share more of what you can expect from this podcast beyond this very first episode.
