    Jun 28 2026
    What happens when the place you go to earn a living becomes the very thing that breaks you?In this open, deep and beautiful opening conversation, Andrew sits down with Kersten Stengel to explore one of the most underspoken yet deeply human experiences: the trauma that can come from workplace environments, and the long, winding road back to wholeness. Kersten shares how chronic pain became the signal she could no longer ignore, and how that pain ultimately became the doorway to a life she never expected to find.Together they explore how ancient practices like yoga and meditation, grounded in thousands of years of wisdom, can work hand in hand with modern science to support genuine healing. Kersten’s story is not about quick fixes or overnight transformations. It is about the courage it takes to stop, listen to your body, and choose a different path.If you have ever felt trapped by your circumstances, or wondered whether real healing is possible, this conversation is for you.Subscribe to Leading Our Own Way so you never miss a story worth hearing, and if this episode moves you, leaving a review means the world.Connect with KerstenWebsite: https://www.kerstenstengel.com.au/LinkedIn: https://au.linkedin.com/in/kersten-stengel-32852328aIG: https://www.instagram.com/kerstenstengel/Yogo: https://yogaaustralia.org.au/teachers/kersten-stengel/Key Topics- Workplace trauma and injury recovery- The role of yoga and meditation in healing- The importance of self-awareness and preventionTakeaways- Healing isn't about becoming someone new, but reconnecting with your true self.- Traditional practices like yoga and Ayurveda are backed by science and can significantly improve mental and physical health.- A personalised approach to diet and lifestyle, based on your constitution, enhances well-being.Chapters🔴 (00:00) welcome Kersten to Leading Our Own Way🔴 (07:00) The Startover Movement and Personal Journey 🔴 (12:03) The Incident That Changed Everything 🔴 (16:07) The Aftermath and Impact on Life 🔴 (20:45) Navigating Chronic Pain and Mental Health 🔴 (25:51) Transitioning to a New School and Support Systems 🔴 (30:47) Current Work and Future Aspirations 🔴 (32:58) Navigating Pain and Professional Responsibilities 🔴 (37:34) The Journey to Medical Intervention 🔴 (41:34) Struggles with Workplace Expectations 🔴 (45:21) Mental Health Challenges and Isolation 🔴 (49:25) Finding Purpose and Community 🔴 (55:31) The Turning Point: Embracing Change 🔴 (01:01:43) Healing Through Yoga and Meditation 🔴 (01:07:36) Connecting with Your True Self🔴 Part 2 Drops Wednesday - Tuesday Truths TomorrowEverything Leading Our Own Way🪪 https://www.link.me/leadingourownway 🌐 https://www.leadingourownway.com Proud Sponsors🤝 ESHU Skincare: https://www.eshuskincare.com/Listen to the Full Podcast Episode:🎧 Spotify: https://www.bit.ly/43H0Mr6 📺 🎧 Apple: https://www.apple.co/3J34tOs 🎧 Amazon Music: https://www.bit.ly/3IIyCFC 📺 YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@LeadingOurOwnWay 📚Buy My Book 📚‘How To Lead With Purpose’ by Andrew White & Mike Nichols ~ https://www.azonlinks.com/B0C9SNQL6C Newsletters📰 https://substack.com/@leadingourownway#LeadingOurOwnWay

  • The Mark You Leave Behind - Dr. Mitchell Levy on Purpose, Trust and Leading with Integrity | E112 - Part 2

    The Mark You Leave Behind - Dr. Mitchell Levy on Purpose, Trust and Leading with Integrity | E112 - Part 2
    Jun 23 2026

    What are you building right now that will matter when you are gone?

    In Part 2 with Dr. Mitchell Levy, Global Credibility Expert, Silicon Valley entrepreneur and founder of Credibility Nation, the conversation moves from concept to practice. Mitchell shares the real strategies behind authentic connection, what it means to define your purpose with genuine clarity, and why leading with integrity is not about having all the answers but about being honest enough to seek them.

    He speaks to legacy, not as a destination but as a daily choice. He speaks to vulnerability as a tool, not a weakness. And he challenges every listener to ask the question that most leaders avoid: Am I actually showing up as myself, or as the version of myself I think others want to see?

    With more than 850 books published, two TEDx talks, and a coaching career that has shaped over 1,000 leaders worldwide, Mitchell brings wisdom that is as practical as it is profound.

    Part 2 is where clarity meets courage. Don't miss it.

  • Clarity, Integrity and the Truth About Executive Abundance | Dr. Mitchell Levy - Tuesday Truths

    Clarity, Integrity and the Truth About Executive Abundance | Dr. Mitchell Levy - Tuesday Truths
    Jun 22 2026

    Yesterday, we opened the door. Tomorrow, we go even deeper. But today? Today is Tuesday Truths.

    In this special mid-week episode, we sit with some of the most powerful insights from our conversation with Dr. Mitchell Levy, Global Credibility Expert, Silicon Valley entrepreneur, founder of Credibility Nation, and one of the most genuinely transformative voices in leadership today.

    Credibility is not a reputation you build. It is a truth you live. And in this Tuesday Truths episode, Mitchell unpacks what that actually means, why so many leaders are unknowingly trading their authenticity for approval, and how the moment you get clear on who you are and what you stand for, everything around you begins to shift.

    We explore the concept of Executive Abundance, not as a business strategy but as a way of being. A way of showing up with such clarity, such integrity, and such genuine presence that trust becomes the natural outcome. We talk about vulnerability not as a weakness but as the very thing that makes people choose to follow you. And we ask the question that cuts through all the noise: Are you leading from your truth, or from your fear?

    If you missed Part 1, go back and start there. And make sure you are ready for Part 2 dropping tomorrow because this conversation is just getting started.

    This is Tuesday Truths. This is Leading Our Own Way.
