Episode 7: Bringing your whole self to life

It is a privilege to welcome Colin Nicklas to the Podcast, Colin is a friend and former colleague who has a really interesting story and set of experiences, wisdoms and learning to share around health and wellbeing, self development and leadership too. His is a facinating journey, as a curious child hearing stories of far away cultures, travels and adventures, he set his sights firmly on joining the Royal Navy which he did at 18 travelling the world and experiencing a breadth and diversity of experience that has clearly given him great perspective, understanding, passion and wisdom about people and how to help them thrive. From there, its interesting to hear about how that shaped him as a person and a leader and how he has evolved all of that experience and those learnings into supporting leaders, teams and organisations as an independent Consultant and Coach to benefit from the space and partnering he generously gives to learn, grow and fulfil their potential. Colin's warmth and honest sharing around the challenges he's faced and the tough times he's come through really I think really reinforce those key messages about the strength of vunerability, the importance of 'self' in our wellbeing and leadership attention, normalising asking for help when you're not okay, finding your own rhythms, mechanisms and resources that support you and the power of inner circles, communities and support networks. Things that we can all do to help ourselves and each other too. I hope you all enjoy the episode and please do feel free to connect with Colin directly.
