I was working with a wonderful group of leaders recently about owning the impact they have in their environment and the importance of self-awareness.
One of the participants had such a powerful insight that she is a deep believer in love as a core philosophy but she doesn’t bring this into her work.
Wow.
I asked her, how do you integrate love and professionalism?
This created such a beautiful insight that we often have these as mutually exclusive facets of ourselves.
As we move towards a more compassionate and humane leadership style, I long to see love, kindness and empathy as key traits of being professional.
What do you believe about professional love?
How do you bring life-force back into the workforce?
You start by acknowledging that people need community, meaning, boundaries and the right to live according to their own values. When we recognise and embrace the diversity in our common human experience, we can unlock joy, purpose, meaning and creativity at work. We can bring the life-force back into the workforce.
If you have a team and would like to see them bring their life force to work, listen to this episode.

When the pandemic struck, Taryn offered her clients an online course on the emotional impact teams could expect during the coming months. She named five phases.
- Numbness
- Coping
- Feeling
- Creating
- Integrating
In this week’s episode, she discusses how most of the people she’s spoken to are stuck in the “coping” mode.
They’re being productive, but they’re hanging on by their fingernails. Leaders need to do something, she says. They just don’t know what it is.
She offers a bridge between the world of “coping” to the world of creativity, innovation and a normal workday.
