This week’s guest on the Empowering Leaders podcast is Scott Parkinson, the head assistant coach of Seattle Reign FC in the US National Women’s Soccer League.

Here, Scott shares the moment that fundamentally changed his approach to communication in leadership, proving that clarity really is EVERYTHING.

So often, we assume that our words are being interpreted the way we intended, but the reality often tells a very different story.

A great reminder that leadership isn’t just about delivering the message, it’s about making sure people understand it.

This week’s guest on the Empowering Leaders podcast is Hindu priest, entrepreneur, bestselling author, speaker and former monk, Dandapani.

Here, Dandapani explains the distinct difference between the mind and awareness, using a simple ‘ball of light’ analogy to describe the way awareness moves through different areas of the mind.

So often, we allow our environment, phones and other external factors to dictate where that light goes… but with practice, we can learn to take back control.

This week’s guest on the Empowering Leaders podcast is investigative journalist, author and podcaster, Hedley Thomas.

For Hedley, the disappearance of his paternal grandmother was a deeply personal family mystery. Years later, that experience helped shape his connection to the investigation into Lynette Dawson’s disappearance and the making of The Teacher’s Pet.

This episode is a powerful conversation about the responsibility of storytelling, the pursuit of justice, and the values that shape a meaningful career.
