Why do so many of us get nervous when public speaking? Communication expert Lawrence Bernstein says the key to dealing with the pressure is as simple as having a casual chat. He introduces the "coffee shop test" as a way to help you overcome nerves, connect with your audience and deliver a message that truly resonates. After the talk, Modupe explains a similar approach in academia called the "Grandma test," and how public speaking can be as simple as a conversation with grandma.

What do elevator sales, the United Nations, and authentic leadership have in common? In this episode of Leaders Lane , I sit down with Erin Herman—keynote speaker, consultant, and all-round powerhouse—to explore the often messy, yet incredibly human side of leadership. We talk about what happens when we ditch perfection, lean into resistance (instead of running from it), and start leading with purpose, not ego. Erin shares what it really looks like to go from corporate suits to global impact—and how courage, empathy, and growth aren't just buzzwords, but tools for real change. This one’s for the leaders tired of the façade—who want to make space for vulnerability, voice, and bold growth. In this episode, we unpack:✨ Why resistance is actually an invitation✨ How confidence is built in the doing—not just the knowing✨ The courage to lead with empathy✨ The real reason groupthink can damage teams✨ And how reconnecting to purpose reinvigorates not just people—but whole organisations Ready to create real impact—and get a little uncomfortable in the process?

What if the root cause of every leadership hurdle wasn’t a lack of strategy, structure, or skill—but something much deeper? Did you know connection makes it impossible to fight? In this mind-expanding conversation, I sit down with Dr. Ravi Iyer — Harvard-trained physician-scientist, author, inventor, 3x TEDx speaker, and one of the Top Doctors of America . With a 42-year career spanning medicine, science, and leadership, Dr. Iyer brings a rare depth of insight into how we lead, connect, and evolve. His 2024 TEDxGary talk was the 3rd most globally viewed TEDx talk of the year — and for good reason. This episode doesn’t scratch the surface. It dives deep. We explore the intersection of biology, identity, and leadership. Dr. Iyer unpacks how focus, observation, and presence are not just personal development tools — they are leadership fundamentals. From dissolving conflict through connection to practicing silence as a tool for influence , this conversation challenges conventional wisdom and offers a new lens on what it means to lead well. Takeaways include: → Why connection makes conflict impossible → How focus is a muscle that transforms your leadership → The real reason leaders struggle — and how to shift it → Why leadership begins at the level of being, not doing → What a monk taught him about silence and power If you’ve ever felt like your leadership has hit a wall — this is the conversation that will help you break through it.

But what if building a small, values-driven brand that supports your life—not consumes it—is the real flex? In Episode 133 of Leaders Lane , I sat down with Briony Kennedy , founder of Adorn Cosmetics , who’s built a sustainable beauty brand by staying true to her own definition of success. Briony started young—selling animals as a kid in the playground—and her entrepreneurial fire never faded. Fast forward to today, where she runs Adorn, a multi-million dollar beauty company. But her success has come intentionally. As she grew Adorn, she made a conscious choice: not to chase rapid scale, but to build a purpose-led, ethical business that supports her well-being and her customers. We spoke about personal risk, mental health, community, and why being smaller—but most importantly ‘intentional’ can actually be the bravest path of all. YOU might be feeling the pressure to “go big or go home.” But Briony’s journey is a reminder that you get to decide what success looks like—and it doesn’t have to match anyone else’s version . But you do need to know what your version is. Do you? Tune into the episode and hear the full conversation.

This week, I sat down with Jingjing Liu, a powerhouse leader who went from thriving in the male-dominated automotive industry to founding Zazazoo , Asia’s first sexual well-being hub. And now, co-founding The Elevate Group. Her journey is one of bold transformation—stepping away from a traditional corporate path to tackle one of society’s most taboo topics: female pleasure and confidence. But this conversation isn’t just about business. I t’s about the invisible pressures women face—at work, at home, and even within themselves. Why do so many women struggle with confidence in their own competence? How does embracing identity and sexuality fuel stronger leadership? And what happens when we stop conforming to outdated expectations and start leading on our own terms? Jingjing doesn’t hold back as we dive into cultural barriers, personal growth, and the power of authenticity in leadership. If you’ve ev er felt like you had to play by someone else’s rules to succeed, this episode will make you rethink everything. In This Episode, You’ll Learn: ➝ Why confidence, not just competence is the biggest barrier for many women in leadership. ➝ How embracing your identity and sexuality can transform the way you lead. ➝ The hidden pressures women face in male-dominated industries—and how to break free from them. ➝ Why women are often “over-advised” and what they actually need to succeed. ➝ The role of sexual well-being in empowerment—and why no one talks about it.

Відтворити Пізніше Відтворити Пізніше Списки Подобається ПодобаєтьсяThis week on Leaders Lane, I had the pleasure of sitting down with Josh Perry, a former X-Games athlete who’s faced more adversity than most of us could imagine. After being diagnosed with multiple brain tumours and battling through years of physical and mental challenges, Josh became a performance coach and speaker with a unique perspective. We talk about how fear is just a thought that can be reframed (but watch out for that reframe!) and why ‘feeling your emotions’ is key to growth. His story shows us that by embracing vulnerability and authenticity, we can change our experience of life. Josh opens up about his BMX career, sharing how the sport was not only his passion but also his escape. He talks on the journey of overcoming multiple brain tumour diagnoses—how his outlook on life flipped — and what really matters to him now. We dive into the power of support systems, the importance of believing in yourself when it feels impossible, and how we can all prioritise what truly matters to us in life. This conversation is a raw, honest look at resilience, mental health, and the courage to show up as our authentic selves—even when life throws curveballs. Takeaways: Fear is just a thought - but how you go beyond ‘reframing it’ to alchemising it. Emotions - and how they’re the game-changer for personal growth. Overcoming adversity - how to harness it for your own powerful life lessons. Vulnerability isn’t a weakness—it’s a key part of true authenticity. Success is driven by grit, resilience, and determination, not just talent. And so, so much more! CONNECT WITH JOSH PERRY 1. Follow on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/joshperrybmx/ 2.

In this episode, I dive into how you can transform everyday moments into engaging leadership content. Because let’s be real—nobody wants to read another dry, step-by-step guide. The best content? It’s human, relatable, and fun. I share some personal stories (because, of course, I practice what I preach) and break down why storytelling is the secret sauce to creating content that actually resonates. We’ll also talk about tone—why the way you say something is just as important as what you’re saying. A dismissive tone? That’s a fast track to losing your audience. But the right tone? That builds trust and connection. Struggling to create leadership content? You might be overlooking the stories hidden in your everyday life. Your content feels flat and forgettable. What if there was a way to make it more engaging—without overcomplicating it? Tone of voice is tricky. How do you make sure you're striking the right balance between professional and personable? People aren’t engaging with your brand. Could the missing piece be something as simple as how you're telling your story? You feel like content creation is a chore. What if I told you it could actually be fun and on-brand? So, grab your coffee (or wine, no judgment), hit play, and let’s get into it! 🎙️ Thanks for being here! CONNECT WITH ME (MONICA KADE) 1.

"I’ve had to sacrifice a lot of things to achieve some of the goals and dreams in my life." - Bethany Hamilton, Ep118 The Monica Kade Podcast On the final episode of The Monica Kade Podcast for 2019, I sat down with Pro-surfer, Bethany Hamilton . She's become a source of inspiration to millions through her story of determination, faith, and hope. At the age of 13, Bethany lost her left arm to a 14-foot tiger shark, which seemed to end her career as a rising surf star. One month after the attack, Bethany returned to the water and within two years had won her first national title. In 2007, she realized her dream of surfing professionally and since then, her story has been told in a New York Times best selling autobiography and in the 2011 film, Soul Surfer. Bethany is involved in numerous charitable efforts, including her own foundation, Friends of Bethany, which reaches out to amputees and youth. Using her platform as a professional athlete to promote living a fit and healthy lifestyle, she authored the book Body and Soul in 2014. Bethany’s latest project, Unstoppable, a surf documentary which showcases her as one of the best women surfers in the world, released theatrically in the USA on July 12, 2019, accompanied by a photo book and a children’s book. Passionate about helping young women be unstoppable in life and faith, Bethany has launched a new website and online course for sharing content and facilitating connection. Her greatest joy is being a wife and mother, and she continues to touch and inspire lives globally as a professional surfer and motivational speaker. Bethany is an incredible human being. Her determination and sheer drive to not let anything step in the way of her surfing is truly inspiring. She reminds me that if you really want something, you can have it…just go after it!

On Episode of 114 of The Monica Kade podcast, I’m sitting down with a truly incredible human being: Chase Jarvis . Aside from being a well-renowned photographer, Founder and CEO of CreativeLive —an online education platform that broadcasts live classes to an international audience on art, photography, design, marketing business and more—he also hosts The Chase Jarvis Live Show and has authored a handful of books. His most recent being Creative Calling . Oh, and he’s also survived a near death experience with an avalanche. As soon as I heard Chase speak on creativity I knew I had to get him on the show. The way he spoke about creativity, and creative expression resonated very much with how I see it. I feel like his take on creativity challenges the status quo and goes against what many people will tell you about your Creative Calling. His philosophy around being creative is: giving of ourselves freely, adding value and expecting nothing in return. Super powerful. What I love most about Chase is his genuine love to connect with people; his friendly and warm nature make you feel like you've known each other for years. Talking with Chase is like having a conversation with a dear friend over coffee.

1 Ep112. The Unexpected Dream: From Brain Surgery to Art to Artist in Demand with Claire Rackley 32:23
“I fought so hard to live and then I was having these thoughts about not wanting to live, and it didn’t make sense.” - Claire Rackley, Ep112 The Monica Kade Podcast. In episode 112 of The Monica Kade Podcast, I chat to Claire Rackley, an Australian Artist and Abstract Acrylic Painter. Her art intentionally provokes emotions of joy and peace through the use of bright colours and bold strokes. But she wasn’t always an artist as such. This particular career trajectory came to life after undergoing brain and spine surgery in 2015. Claire used her creativity as therapy to heal and recover from the trauma, but as time progressed people began to ask to purchase her artworks. She has an interest in mental health and how colour can impact a person and their emotions. What caught my attention with Claire was her love to impact those in the waiting and recovery rooms of hospitals and medical practices with beautiful tiles on the ceiling, in the hope it would impact their state of being. This woman is changing the world and making such a profound impact that I can’t wait to see how it ripples out into across the world. "Creativity brings life. No matter what industry you’re in, continue to create." - Claire Rackley LEARN ABOUT What Chiari 1 Malformation is and what it meant for her What it was like being a mother to young children and being diagnosed with this serious illness What the most challenging part of the experience was for her What Claire learned about herself from undergoing brain surgery and recovery How she’s had to adapt the way she lives her life The effect her diagnosis had on her children and her personally Where the inspiration for her artwork ceiling tiles came from How this creative idea has been received SIGNATURE QUESTIONS The career she’d like to attempt if not in this one Her greatest asset A piece of wisdom she lives by today…

Welcome to Episode 109 of The Monica Kade Podcast. Today’s episode is a special one. It sits close to my heart, and behind the scenes this conversation has been a personally transformational one. Meet Vashti Whitfield. She has over twenty years experience in facilitating the transformation and development of human potential as an executive and performance coach, teacher and international speaker. However, she’s most widely known for choosing to turn her own personal loss into a catalyst for inspiring millions of people. Her late husband, actor Andy Whitfield was diagnosed with non-Hodgkin's lymphoma in 2010 just after he’d landed the role of Spartacus in the TV Series Spartacus: Blood and Sand. This was a huge role for Andy and shot his acting career into lights, which he had been so tirelessly working towards for many years prior. He’d finally “made it”—and so very quickly this dream career and life, he and Vashti had invested so much energy into was pulled from beneath their feet. Both Andy and Vashti decided to make a documentary, BE HERE NOW, which chronicles Andy and the family’s journey with cancer and the battle to overcome fear, loss and letting go. The story is a heart-wrenching emotional rollercoaster. We see Andy beat Cancer the first time around, but not for good. It returns. Eventually, on September 11, 2011 Andy’s battle came to an end. Leaving behind his incredible wife Vashti, their extraordinary life and his gorgeous two young children, Jesse and Indigo. In 2017, along with the films Director, Oscar Nominee Lilibet Foster, Vashti toured worldwide premiering and speaking about their award-winning feature film documentary Be Here Now. If you don't already know of Vashti, you'll fall in love with her candid nature, her big heart and incredibly strong mindset. Her energy and fervour for life is infectious. Her words deeply empowering. A conversation that will open your heart and remind you of what’s truly important: THIS MOMENT NOW. Learn About Vashti’s incredible upbringing living all over the world as a young little girl What has fostered Vashti’s strong mindset The idea of ‘fitting in’ and how her mum raised her differently Her perspective around ‘inclusivity’ of men and women, not just women Who Andy was to her, what he was like and what she loved about him How Andy and Vashti built a beautifully strong relationship What made them decide to film the Be Here Now documentary How the film got its title and the experience of filming something so personal What it’s like for Vashti having to fill the shoes of both parents How she supports Jesse and Indi as a parent Follow Vashti Here Her website Instagram | Facebook Be Here Now Documentary Website…
