Leading With Tenderness with Meena Srinivasan

The Big Talk with Tricia Brouk

Today, I am talking with an amazing alum of The Big Talk Academy, Meena Srinivasan.

Meena is a celebrated speaker, accomplished author, and visionary edupreneur. With over 20 years of dedicated service, she consistently champions the fusion of Mindfulness, Social and Emotional Learning, and Belonging.

As the founding Executive Director of Transformative Educational Leadership, Meena pioneered a groundbreaking Fellowship for educational leaders. This unique program places an emphasis on nurturing personal development as a catalyst for driving systemic transformation.

In 2022, she was featured as one of Mindful Magazine's Ten Powerful Women of the Mindfulness Movement. And with over 2 million views, her recent TEDx on Tenderness is one of the most popular TEDx talks of 2024.

In this episode, we’ll explore:

• When she began using her voice for impact and how she started to identify as a speaker

• The importance of combining tenderness with power in leadership, and why the two are not mutually exclusive

• How to navigate today's political landscape with wisdom, non-violence, and compassion

• Her current favorites: Book: The Awakened Brain, Speaker: Thich Nhat Hanh, and Podcast: The Way Out Is In
