🌴 222. 80% You: The Inner Work of Facilitation feat. Jo Fitzgerald (Weekend Rewind)

There are some conversations where you can just feel the depth of thought—and this episode with Jo Fitzgerald is one of them.I met Jo when she came over to Brisbane earlier this year, and straight away I knew I wanted to hit record on our chats. We finally made it happen!In this episode, Jo shares her journey from primary school teaching to becoming a facilitator and coach, and how that foundation has shaped the way she shows up in the room today. We talk about:What teaching children taught her about adult learningThe moment she knew she needed to shift from “doing” facilitation to being a facilitatorHer pre- and post-workshop rituals, including her incredible “intention sheet” (I’m stealing this)How she handles the post-workshop buzz or flat, and why preparation helps her stay groundedThat public speaking workshop story—you’ll never forget itJo also opens up about her superpower: preparation. And she shares how she uses it as a springboard for creativity, agility, and being present—not as a rigid safety net. If you’re early in your facilitation journey, you’ll love her honesty. If you’ve been doing it for years, you’ll feel seen.You can connect with Jo here:🌐 Website: https://jofitzconsulting.co.nzPre-order my new book WORK FAME and get featured on the Wall of Work FameSign up for free for my best articles every week: Work Fame.Show notes for every episode at https://podcast.leannehughes.comLet's connect on all the channels:Leanne Hughes on LinkedInLeanne Hughes on InstagramVisit my website: leannehughes.comEmail me: [email protected] you like to deliver your own private podcast feed to your audience?
