In the Brené Bubble: Leadership, Vulnerability & Doing the Work | NattyShedLife Podcast

In this episode of NattyShedLife, we talk about the woman who has shaped the way we lead, parent, communicate and live: the one, the ONLY Brené Brown.

After travelling to Dublin to see her speak, this episode became something more than a conference recap – it's a reflection on the impact Brené's work has had on us, on Gillies & Mackay, and on the way we show up every day.

From Dare to Lead and Strong Ground, to vulnerability, emotional regulation and systems thinking – Brené’s work has fundamentally changed how we understand not only leadership, but ourselves as humans.

This episode is in one part a love letter to Brené, and in the other – our wholehearted encouragement for anyone who hasn’t yet stepped into the Brené bubble.

If you’re willing to do the work – it will work for you 🧡
