Join us as we and our guests reflect on how we've navigated the opportunities and challenges at work, and in our home lives.

Enjoy.
#8. The Cost Of Self-betrayal And The Key To Forgiveness
In this episode Roger is in conversation with Nic Devlin.
Several years ago Nic left a highly successful corporate career as an award winning developer of people. She did so because she recognised the voice in her head wasn’t the voice she wanted to listen to – her soul was calling. She became an Ishaya monk (she even got a new sanskit name; Mahita Ishaya) honing her innate ability to access truth and wisdom. Today she brings these gifts to the world in her work as an executive coach and Co-Founder of Remarkable Women (https://www.linkedin.com/company/somebody-inside/) helping women unlock their own potential and make the difference they long for. Living a life that fills THEM with joy.
We discuss:
Friendship
Denial
Betrayal
Intuition
Powerful lessons and..
How one of the bravest things you can do is to live a life that’s different from what others expect from you.
