Soulful Leadership: A Six Week Path to Authentic Power

In a world of increasing Volatility, Uncertainty, Complexity, and Ambiguity, traditional leadership approaches are failing us. These times demand leaders who can transform reactivity into wisdom, cynicism into devotion, conformity into authenticity, and moral resignation into courage. 

This 6-week journey develops the transpersonal leadership qualities needed to navigate crisis with grace, authenticity, and heart.

Previous participants describe this work as 'life-changing', 'expansive' and 'one of the best decisions I have taken in years.' They've discovered new perspectives, awakened dormant potentials, and found the courage to step more purpousefully onto their path.

• You have cultivated a robust capacity to self-reflect through engaging in psychological work

The Journey: 

At the heart of this offering is the understanding that there is an existential dimension to our crises, and that psycho-spiritual development is crucial in order to respond meaningfully to the needs of the time. 

I will share psycho-spiritual frameworks and teachings to help make sense of the context we’re in, the psychological dynamics it creates and the qualities of leadership we need to cultivate in response.

Through intimate group work, personalised coaching, and transformative practices, you'll develop the inner resources to face our world's challenges not as problems to solve, but as invitations to deeper presence, purpose, and participation in life's unfolding.

Week 1 - Crisis, Catalyst, Chrysalis: Navigating Leadership in Troubled Times

We arrive by situating ourselves in our two primary contexts - self and world. We will enquire into the nature of this moment and what it is asking of us… What is happening? What psychological needs are being created by our increasingly VUCA (volatile, uncertain, complex and ambiguous) world? And what qualities of being we need to cultivate in order to manage them?

+ 1-1  coaching session to clarify your intention for the journey

Week 2 - Truth, Essence & The Psycho-spiritual context: Connecting with Your Soul's Purpose

We'll explore the psycho-spiritual map of human experience—distinguishing between the ‘survival personality’ and ‘Self’ and exploring the distinction between sensemaking and soulmaking. Who are we? Why are we here? Where are we going?

Week 3 - Blocks, Patterns & Mindsets: Transforming Reactivity into Response-ability

​​We will deepen our psychological enquiry - looking at the wounding and conditioning that keeps each of us stuck in patterns of defence and resistance, and not fully participating in life. Through developing self awareness, we are cultivating the capacity for thoughtful response rather than compulsive reaction. What is standing in the way of love, joy and fulfilment?

+ 1-1 coaching session to work with your wounds and blocks

Week 4 - Love, Grief & Sacred Wounding: Leading from the Tragic Gap

This week addresses the heart of moral courage—our capacity to feel deeply and respond meaningfully to suffering. We explore the "tragic gap" between reality and possibility, and the distinction between neurotic and existential concerns. Through connecting to our own grief, we cultivate the capacity to stay present to both the pain and the possibility inherent in life.

Week 5 - Beauty, Belonging & Bowing down: Leadership as Sacred Practice 

This session explores leadership as an act of reverence and service to something greater than ourselves. What makes life worth living? How might we center beauty and devotion in our leadership? 

+ 1-1 coaching session to integrate your insights and support you in moving forward.

Week 6 - Vision & Declaration: Embodying Your Path as a Soulful Leader

Our final session is an opportunity for you to share and showcase what you stand for, live for and are reaching towards in your work as a Soulful Leader. This is a potent opportunity for self-revelation and declaration amongst a community of peers. 

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ "I got so much out of this course! It was filled with wisdom, from psychosynthesis frameworks, to self-inquiry prompts, group discussions, homework exercises, links to external content, and Bonny's ever spot-on reflections on our sharings… The content was excellent, thought-provoking and challenging yet uplifting... I finished it with a feeling of hope for the future and a sense of courageousness for my unique path, in making a positive dent in the world." 

The Proposition:

The way we are being ‘led’ is missing a vital dimension - attendance to and appreciation for  the core human values of truth, beauty, freedom & love. For, if we are not being led towards that which is most sacred, most meaningful, most deep & abiding in life, then we are being led astray. 

Any leadership that perpetuates paradigms of division, domination and control, is leading us astray… 

When the sanctity of life is being violated, true leadership involves saying a firm and resounding NO to that which seeks to extract, exploit, violate, dominate or manipulate life. (Both in the world and inside ourselves.) And saying an emphatic and resounding YES to possibility, creativity, imagination, joy, beauty and the sacred. (Both in the world and inside ourselves.)

The Predicament pt 1 (external):

The interlinked crises - at the level of mental health, social inequality, political polarisation and ecological collapse - together create the polycrisis, which is so complex it cannot be effectively approached at the level of analysis/ strategy alone… The logical mind wants to solve it like it would any other problem, but this is an altogether different beast, something that is actually beyond our powers of comprehension. 

The Process:

Overwhelmed by complexity and faced with existential threat, our survival personalities kick in and try to protect us through:

• Getting on top of the problem - ie. Research: ‘If I understand everything well enough I’ll be ok’
• Getting swept up in the problem - ie. manic action, “It’s up to me to save the world”
• Flying away in idealism - ie. some version of “God will save us”
• Collapsing into cynicism and nihilism - ie.”we may as well not even bother trying, nothing matters anyway.’’

The Paradox: 

All of these reactions have some value in keeping us alive and sane and none of them will create the lasting change we need, because they are coming from the wrong place.  Paradoxically, our desire to avoid suffering tends to create more suffering… So while we do not want to suffer and do not wish it on ourselves or others, we cannot respond meaningfully to the pain of the world unless we are willing to live alongside it.

The Predicament pt. 2 (internal)

• How can we find the courage to face the crisis we’re in?
• What does it look like to respond from within our heartbreak, rather than resisting it?
• What inner resources can we draw upon to find strength and sanity to navigate the incredible complexity and uncertainty of these times? And why should we bother?
• How do we kindle our belief in possibility? And stoke our fires of creativity?
• How do we stay close to what matters most? And use it to light a torch of hope?

The Practise:

If we look at the predicament through the logical mind, it’s all too easy to collapse into despair or cynicism. A ‘reasonable’ person might tell you it’s ‘unreasonable’ to believe that a more beautiful world is possible. But ‘reason’ has never been the ‘reason’ for life. ‘Reason’ is not what motivates us - Beauty, Truth, Freedom & Love are what motivate us. The practice in these times is to align ourselves to these appetites of the soul, and to live in a way that ardently cultivates and protects them. 

The Prayer:

May I remember why I am here 

May I liberate myself from the conditioning that tames my spirit and dulls my lust for life

May I notice, appreciate and create beauty as an act of prayer in devotion to the Earth 

May I communicate authentically the essence of my humanity

May I keep the door to my heart open even when storms of grief are raging, hungry ghosts are prowling and the lull of numbness promises sweet relief
