Emma Gorbutt from the Mother Nature Team turns the tables and interviews Looby Macnamara our regular podcast host. They have been friends and co-workers for nearly 20 years and in this interesting and thought provoking conversation they explore our cultures of leadership and mothering. How recognising as mothers, we are already 'Natural Leaders' who bring a different style, which can support Humanity to grow up! Their conversations also touch on how we support the next generation to surface their gifts and tackle the challenges of our time and come into their own leadership. Looby shares about her journey creating the Cultural Emergence toolkit and bringing intentional design into all areas of our lives using the Design Web and how we can use it to create the world and cultures we want for ourselves and our children to live in. They explore Looby's own leadership journey including her Song Leader Training and they sing a song together. They also share about the FREE Leading Mother Nature Circles Training available online and the power and magic of these circles.
