This podcast is an exploration of what it means to be a human navigating life on planet Earth. Mary and I talk about fear of change, the importance of self-knowledge and self-belief, and what it takes to unearth your soul’s purpose. You might want to take a breath or two, because we also delve into conscious leadership–what it means and what effect conscious leaders have on our culture and our future.  And then we talk about love.This podcast is deep and it’s dense, but it is not overly complex or hard to follow. Just relax, and give yourself space to listen slowly or multiple times. Think of it as the essential book you open when you need to be reminded of the things that really matter. When you need to remember who you are. When your heart feels compelled to open despite the resistance of your mind.Mary is one of those people who gets straight to the point with refreshing clarity. And besides that, she has a deep well of empathy, finely attuned intuition, and incredible intelligence.These are the very qualities she uses in coaching and you can sense it in my conversation with her.  Her style embodies the ying-yang of fulfillment-finding and potential-stretching, all while holding space for emotions. Her clients are lucky to have her, as we are lucky to have her with us on this show.~~~Mary Ostafi: Executive Coach, TEDx Speaker & AuthorLinks:Mary Ostafi's WebsiteThe Dieckert Group: Leadership & Executive Coaching
