Episode 29 - Roundtable with Hetty, Nathan and Marcus discussing conscious leadership in 2026

At the start of 2026, we gather three powerful voices for a special roundtable on awakening more conscious leadership: Nathan Blair, founder of The Somatic School, bringing a body-based lens to leadership; Hetty Einzig, leadership coach, transpersonal psychotherapist, and author, offering a spiritual and transpersonal perspective; and Marcus Stone, life coach and coach nurturer, speaking from heart-centered presence.

Together, we explore the shift from spectacle to substance in an increasingly chaotic world asking: What is my purpose? What does authentic leadership require now? The conversation moves from the pull of inauthenticity and cultural pendulum swings to the call for creativity over critique, the inter-dependence of polarity, and the possibility of a new Axial Age.

From “archipelagos of creativity” to the idea that we each ‘contain multitudes’, this episode is a rich, wide-ranging inquiry into what conscious leadership might mean in the year ahead and why depth, embodiment, and presence matter more than ever.
