In this episode Judith Germain and Bodhi Aldridge discuss the concept of true freedom. He shares how many business leaders are searching for freedom in the wrong place, and how true freedom is about freedom from suffering, not just external freedom.
Bodhi and Judith have an in-depth discussion about the role of emotions in leadership and organisational culture. They emphasise the need for emotional awareness, the ability to feel and process emotions, and creating psychologically safe environments where people can be vulnerable. They contrast this with the tendency to suppress or judge emotions, which can hinder personal and professional growth.
In this conversation they discuss the importance of emotional maturity and self-awareness for leaders, and how creating a culture of emotional safety and vulnerability on teams can unlock greater productivity and connection.
Bodhi commitment to self-development, to life-long learning and to supporting men in business has allowed him to influence and support many organisations and leaders around the globe. He guides men to develop presence, open their hearts, and integrate their masculine and feminine energy so that they can start paying attention to what matters most.
