Tina Tower welcomes leadership expert Cherie Canning (Luminate Leadership, Lead with Courage podcast) and shares how they first connected through social media and met in person at Christine Cochran's event.
Cherie explains how her dad's coaching and her school leadership roles shaped her early view of leadership, then how being made redundant from Flight Centre during COVID pushed her into starting her own business despite never planning to be an entrepreneur. She describes her runway planning, building a workshop-and-speaking-centered business model, adding a podcast to build trust, and the mindset shift of pricing and selling "you."
The conversation focuses on self-leadership, human-centered leadership as connection (within, with others, and with awe), sustainable success through planned breaks and intentional energy deposits, and Cherie's current goals of higher revenue/profit and more stage speaking, including her Ignite Women in Leadership conference on 13 November.
