Failure - What Does It Mean Anyway?

Conscious Creative Leadership

This week we zero in on Failure - an inevitability for anyone taking a leadership role! But it's one that can be challenging to navigate. We don’t really believe in failure as such, but we do recognise that things don’t always go to plan and recognise that this can have long term consequences for our reputations, resilience and self esteem. So join us as we cover:

• The difference between mistakes and getting things wrong
• The connection between failure and creativity
• Resistance and procrastination
• Letting go, and giving up

And this week’s thought-provoking question is:

What is pointing you to a natural ending right now?

ABOUT THE PODCAST

Conscious Creative Leadership is a series of informal conversations about leadership in the 21st century, between close friends, trauma therapist Darren Abrahams and Leadership Mentor Nadine Benjamin MBE. Darren and Nadine are both professional singers, entrepreneurs and Certified High Performance coaches and together they explore what it means to be a leader in a changing world - starting with leading yourself. Now in our second season, each half hour chat focuses on a different element of leadership, from Clarity to Commitment to Imposter Syndrome. So if you are an artist, a creative corporate or a change maker looking for new ideas, join us to get a blueprint for a more heart centred approach to getting things done.

ABOUT US

We have been friends and collaborators for over a decade. We met as singers, trained together as High Performance Coaches and have been cheerleaders, supporters and truth tellers for each other as we create our own initiatives and projects. In 2021 we came together creatively for the first time to write and produce a new opera, BEAM, a story of one woman’s healing journey from trauma to leadership. These conversations have been informed by our many years of learning together and the experience of co-creation. With this podcast we’d love to invite you into that conversation with us.

Darren Abrahams is a therapist, coach, trainer and singer. Co-Founder of The Human Hive and the One World Orchestra, Wellbeing Advisor for Musicians Without Borders, board member of Opera Circus and co-creator of BEAM.
