In this episode, Shelley engages in a conversation with Cortney McDermott, a renowned author and speaker specialising in human potential. Drawing from her experiences working with esteemed organisations like Google, Universal Music Group, Virgin Unite and Nike, Cortney helps leaders to disrupt old behavioural patterns, grow healthy businesses and apply the essential physiology and psychology for success.
The discussion delves into the intriguing dynamics of language shaping behaviour, particularly the societal tendency to glorify 'busyness' as a status symbol, which often serves as a shield against confronting underlying issues. Cortney emphasises the significance of taking ownership of time and dispels the myth that being busy equates to productivity.
Drawing from her global work experience, she highlights that true success lies in attaining 'time freedom' and she shares her personal journey towards achieving this goal.
