About 5 years ago, I was burnt out from my startup and not really sure how my budding interest in my consciousness evolution really jibed with my life setup. My co-founder had recommended the 15 Commitments of Consciousness Leadership and in my desperation, I decided to give it a whirl. From the minute I started reading the book, I couldn’t put it down. So many of the ideas and concepts were illuminating things in my experience that I didn’t really have the world to articulate. Since that point in time, I’ve become a huge advocate of Conscious Leadership and all the work that the creators of the book the Conscious Leadership Group does. Today I have the great honor of hosting Diana Chapman on the show. Diana is one of the founding Partner’s of CLG and authors of the 15 Commitments of Conscious Leadership. I have admired Diana and her work for a long time. Whenever anyone asks me about the connecting consciousness and spirituality to the business world, my default answer is to point people to all the work of the Conscious Leadership Group. They have a beautiful ability to translate concepts and practices that pull from deep wisdom into the business world in a way that enhances connection, creativity, and engagement.

Some people get into the deep exploration of spirituality and gravitate towards a reclusive experience.  This never resonated with me. I was always interested in pursuing a deep inner exploration while simultaneously engaging life fully. This path leads you to life unfolding becoming the primary teacher.  I find myself attracted to people who have a similar disposition. Today’s guest Peter Corbett is one of those people. After selling his last business to the world’s largest publicly traded marketing services company, Peter Corbett decided it was time to go sit in a Zen monastery.  Since then he has taken on roles such as coach, meditation teacher, spiritual caregiver, and community builder to name a few. I wanted to have Peter on the show because he’s a unique combination of someone with tremendous business success that has also gone to profound depths on the spiritual path. I also don’t have a ton of direct experience studying Zen and thought it’d be fun to go there with Peter. In this conversation, we explore his experience with the Zen tradition and how he has helped himself and others integrate its wisdom into everyday life to improve well-being and fulfillment.  For full show notes: https://blog.scottbritton.me/s/evolutionfm-podcast

Life has probably never felt more frenetic and speedy for humans than it does today. Technology and culture have made it easy to always be on, always be productive, always be improving ourselves, and always be running to the next thing. Underlying this behavior is the idea that more and faster is what’s going to create the best experience and outcomes. But is that true? I think it behooves us to take stock on how this narrative is actually playing out for our well-being and prosperity. And are there times in life when it is particularly useful to slow down? Today’s guest Steve Schlafman thinks so. Steve is the first boomerang guest I’ve had on the show. This time he is coming back to talk about Downshift, the world’s first decelerator for high performers.  Steve has been a leader, investor, and coach in the world of startups and technology. More recently he has focused on helping higher performers in periods of transition. For full show notes: https://blog.scottbritton.me/s/evolutionfm-podcast
