Episode highlights
Leanne was a guest on episode 47, recorded waaaay back in August 2020. We have had so many amazing conversations since then, that I thought we should record another one for you! We talked about:
the fabulous Nick Gray and his blind date in Tokyo that has taken Twitter / X by storm (you can follow him here), and how being brave and putting yourself out there can reap so many rewards
adapting to change during COVID
connecting across borders
the power of vibe - and yes, we were influenced by the fabulous Australian movie The Castle 😂
the underestimated power of interpersonal connection in business
Leanne’s book "The Two-Hour Workshop Blueprint”
setting boundaries
AND SO MUCH MORE!
