The Maverick Intrapreneur
This episode is the story of what happens when you send a 13 year old Maverick out to work and they realise its their passion and what came next. This episode was cathartic for me, hope you enjoy it. For the last 3 years, via deep inner work and reflective thinking I've pieced together my story. How a not very academic, ginger, sporty, teen from Douglas, Isle of Man, got to have such a fun, senior and varied worldwide career . And because of that i am ultra motivated to help others do the same - because i know you can be and have anything you want - if you want it enough. Creative thinker, leader, communicator, problem solver, people person and pivoter - the Intrapreneurial skillset for leaders in the 2020s. And how a huge Growth Mindset, well developed emotional intelligence and Maverick based authenticity, becomes an irresistible combination. Today i get to do lots of it all again, coaching senior leaders and professionals who want to connect with the Intrapreneurial skillset and reduce pressure and stress by being true to themselves. Mentoring young "founders" means i get to see it all through their eyes, again. To me, this episode is the secret ingredient in how to succeed at work and leadership in the post pandemic world - see what you think.

The Maverick Bookworm
As the eldest of a large , excitable , not well off family, my escape from the noise and craziness was reading. I read from a young age, developed a ridiculous passion for spelling and words, read all the books in Douglas children's library and then borrowed from teachers and friends. Reading is a great escape for me . On holiday i spend hours in coffee shops reading local mags, journals and papers, Its a good day if i learn something from reading each day, that i didn't already know. It feeds my growth mindset . Also adore literature and theatre. I think Shakespeare is the consummate story teller of all time . I adore the wit and brilliance of Oscar Wilde. Over the last 4 years, I've read lots for my studies as a Coach, to understand the amazing developments in human potential, psychology, peak performance, thinking differently and self leadership. For these books i awake an hour early each morning , read a chapter, make notes and reflect. This activity, lights up my brain and unlocks my creative flow . At night i read before sleep every single night. I speed read fiction and with a Kindle average 3-5 books a week. Books are my constant companion, they teach me, make me laugh, cry, smile and want to know more. Most of all they help me connect to my best version of Maverick Carol.

The Punk Years
I was so fortunate to be a student in late 70s Britain. The country was pretty drab and dirty then and London was a pretty dangerous place. Out of this malaise came a movement of unbelievable passion, energy and attitude - Punk Rock. With its roots in New York it really made its mark here. I was a working class misfit late teen , who suddenly met lots of other like me. Often it wasn't about the music, as many early bands couldn't really play their instruments, it was about chaos. It gave you an attitude to hook onto, that said "I can be anything i want to be and no-one can stop me". Today i see a lot of the the essence of punk, in startup entrepreneurs i work with. They've got high energy, ideas and belief and they'll learn as they go - the ultimate extreme growth mindset. In this episode i really enjoy sharing my love for the music that talks to my inner being. The fun i had and most importantly what i learnt from being a punk. That being authentic,true to yourself and with like minded people is a hugely freeing place to be .
