Sacred Changemakers

What if the future of leadership isn’t about performing certainty, but learning how to respond with deeper awareness, courage, and connection?In this rich and deeply thoughtful episode of the Sacred Changemakers Podcast, I’m joined by Sarah Carlsen, an executive and systems coach who helps leaders and leadership teams navigate complexity, transition, and growth with greater intention. Before becoming a coach, Sarah led complex change initiatives inside global law firms, where she saw firsthand that the technical side of change is often the easier part. The deeper challenge is human. It lives in how we relate, how we communicate, how we stay present under pressure, and how willing we are to see ourselves clearly.Sarah’s work brings together whole-person development, relational skills, systems thinking, and the Enneagram, all in service of helping leaders and teams respond to change from a place of groundedness rather than reactivity. What makes this conversation so powerful is that Sarah doesn’t just speak about this work. She embodies it. Her wisdom feels lived, integrated, and deeply human. Together, we explore why leadership today must evolve beyond role, authority, and performance into a more conscious practice of responsibility. We also talk about the courage it takes to stay in hard conversations, how teams can strengthen trust in times of complexity, and what becomes possible when we begin to partner more consciously with what is trying to emerge.This is an enlightening conversation for coaches, leaders, and changemakers who sense that the next era of leadership will not be built through strategy alone, but will require presence, self-awareness, relational courage, and the capacity to see the systems we are part of with fresh eyes.Key TakeawaysWhy the technical side of change is often easier than the human side.How leadership can evolve from performance and certainty into conscious responsibility.Why meaningful change must happen across three levels: self, relationship, and system.How leaders can move from reactivity into grounded, intentional response.Why relational courage matters when teams are navigating complexity, tension, and transition.What becomes possible when we begin to trust the wisdom within us, between us, and among us.Learn More About Today’s GuestSarah’s website ****→ https://carlsencc.comSarah on LinkedIn → https://www.linkedin.com/in/sarah-carlsen-pcc/ORSC Coach Training → https://crrglobal.com/About the HostJayne Warrilow is the founder of Sacred Changemakers, a global community and learning space exploring the intersection of human resonance, regenerative change, and conscious leadership.Learn more at sacredchangemakers.com

What if marketing didn’t ask you to perform, but to tell the truth?In this episode of the Sacred Changemakers Podcast, I’m joined by Eli Natoli, marketing mentor, author, and host of the Marketing Your Truth podcast. Eli’s work offers a refreshingly human approach to business growth, one that honors integrity, clarity, and the lived experience of the person behind the work.We explore how much traditional marketing quietly pulls people away from themselves, rewarding performance over presence and urgency over resonance. Eli breaks down some of the core assumptions many purpose-driven entrepreneurs have inherited—and offers a simpler, more honest way forward. One rooted in service, trust, and being genuinely understood rather than constantly visible.This is a grounded, insightful conversation for coaches, creatives, and changemakers who care deeply about their work but resist marketing as it’s usually taught, and who sense that growth can happen without hustle when strategy honors the human on both sides of the exchange.About Eli NatoliEli Natoli is a marketing mentor, author, and host of the Marketing Your Truth podcast. Through her Service First Framework, she helps purpose-driven experts articulate their true voice, simplify how they share their work, and invite clients with integrity, so growth emerges from honesty rather than performance.Learn More About Today’s GuestEli’s website ****→ https://elinatoli.comEli’s book Service First→ https://www.elinatoli.com/elevateEli on LinkedIn → https://www.linkedin.com/in/elinatoli/About the HostJayne Warrilow is the founder of Sacred Changemakers, a global community and learning space exploring the intersection of human resonance, regenerative change, and conscious leadership.Learn more at sacredchangemakers.com

What kind of year are we truly stepping into, and how do we meet it without losing ourselves?In this illuminating and deeply human conversation, Jayne is joined once again by her dear friend Melissa Chambers Yamaguchi to explore the energetic themes of 2026, the Year of the Fire Horse, through the lens of Feng Shui, self-knowledge, and conscious choice.Last year’s episode with Melissa became one of the most listened-to conversations on the Sacred Changemakers Podcast, and this return builds on that resonance. Together, Jayne and Melissa move beyond forecasts and predictions to explore what this year is really asking of us personally, relationally, and collectively.Melissa brings over two decades of lived experience as a Feng Shui practitioner, teacher, and speaker, blending ancient wisdom with humor, honesty, and practical insight. At the heart of the conversation is a powerful reminder: when energy intensifies, self-knowledge becomes essential. Fire Horse years don’t reward passivity or avoidance; they invite ownership, discernment, and courage.This episode is especially resonant for coaches, leaders, and changemakers who sense that the pace of life is quickening and that the old ways of responding no longer hold. Rather than offering fear or certainty, Melissa invites us into agency to work with energy, not against it, and to take responsibility for the choices we make in times of intensity.In this episode, we explore:What the Year of the Fire Horse represents energetically — and why it carries both power and riskWhy self-knowledge and energetic responsibility are non-negotiable in high-intensity yearsHow Fire Horse energy amplifies patterns we haven’t yet ownedThe difference between reaction and conscious choice under pressureWhat it truly means to “own your energy, own your life” in 2026How leaders, caregivers, and changemakers can steward their energy without burning outThe invitation this year holds for courage, clarity, and conscious actionThis is not a conversation about what will happen to us in 2026. It’s a conversation about who we choose to be as we step into it. If you’re sensing the heat rising, in the world, in your work, or in your own inner life, this episode offers grounding, perspective, and a clear call to conscious living.Learn More About Today’s GuestMelissa’s website ****→ www.yamaguchilifestyle.comMelissa’s Energy Reads → linktr.ee/myamaguchiExplore Sacred Changemakers:Start your journey → SacredChangemakers.comDiscover Your Resonance Code → quiz.SacredChangemakers.comJoin our community → SacredChangemakers.com/communitySubscribe to The Coaching (R)evolution Newsletter → https://www.linkedin.com/newsletters/the-coaching-r-evolution-7371571227230101504/Books by Jayne Warrilow:‘Becoming: Poems From The Thresholds Of Change’ → https://amzn.to/42DM1WI‘Beyond Profit: The Sacred Changemaker’s Guide To Reimagining Business And Leading Regenerative Change → https://amzn.to/40g3By5The 10 Day Coaches MBA: The Small Business Book For Coaches Who Want To Play Bigger → https://amzn.to/46yJRZPConnect with Jayne on LinkedIn → https://www.linkedin.com/in/jaynewarrilow/Support the Podcast & Our MissionA huge thank you to our Resonance Collective members whose support helps us align with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals and amplify conscious impact worldwide.

Conscious Accomplishment: How Inner Growth Shapes What We Create In The World with Scott BrittonWhat happens when you stop treating spiritual growth and achievement as separate pursuits and begin to see them as part of one coherent path?In this week’s episode of the Sacred Changemakers Podcast, I’m joined by Scott Britton, entrepreneur, author, community builder, CEO of Conscious Talent, and host of the EvolutionFM podcast. Scott’s journey began in the high-pressure world of tech, where he co-founded Troops, later acquired by Salesforce. Outwardly, he had all the markers of success. Inwardly, something else was stirring.Our conversation traces the pivotal moments that led Scott to rethink accomplishment altogether, not as a race to the top, but as a practice of becoming. His work, captured in his book Conscious Accomplishment, offers a grounded, practical way to integrate inner development with the very real demands of building, leading, and making an impact in the world.Together, we explore the patterns that shape us, the disturbances that wake us up, and why the fuel behind our ambition matters far more than we realise. Scott brings a refreshing clarity to the intersection of consciousness and creativity, showing how inner awareness doesn’t pull us away from action, but actually strengthens how we move through the world.This is a conversation for anyone who has ever questioned the traditional definitions of success… for anyone who has hit their goals and still wondered, “Is this it?”… and for every coach and changemaker seeking a more coherent way to live, lead, and create.Key TakeawaysWhy the old dichotomy between spiritual development and achievement no longer serves us.How disturbances and emotional triggers can become profound teachers.Why patterns, not circumstances, drive most of our suffering—and how to work with them.The practice of Self Repatterning and its role in shifting consciousness.How to integrate inner work into leadership and daily life without compartmentalising.About Scott BrittonScott Britton is an entrepreneur, author, and community builder. He is the CEO of Conscious Talent, host of the EvolutionFM podcast, and author of Conscious Accomplishment, a book that challenges the belief that spiritual growth and achievement must compete with one another.

Breaking The Coaching Code: How Great Coaches Transcend The Rules with Karen FoyWhat if great coaching isn’t about mastering the rules, but learning when and how to transcend them?In this heartfelt and grounded episode of the Sacred Changemakers Podcast, I’m joined by Karen Foy, a Master Certified Coach, Coach Educator, Supervisor, and Mentor with over two decades of experience shaping the next generation of coaches. Karen’s journey began in nursing, where her natural compassion and care for others first took root. Her love of psychology led her into the NHS, where she moved through policy and service development before discovering the transformative potential of coaching. She has since served as Programme Director for Accredited Programmes at Henley Business School, where she remains a Visiting Tutor and Honorary Fellow, continuing to inspire coaches and changemakers worldwide.Together, we explore the themes in her new book, Breaking the Coaching Code: How Great Coaches Transcend the Rules, and the deeper invitation it offers to those of us who coach to move beyond frameworks and techniques, and instead cultivate trust in our own wisdom, presence, and humanity. Karen speaks with rare humility and openness, sharing how her own path has been a lifelong process of “walking people home” to their unique selves, while continuing that same journey within her own life. We discuss concepts such as enoughness, compassion, the evolving nature of retirement, and what it truly means to live and work with integrity in a world that often demands perfection.This is a conversation filled with heart and hard-won wisdom, one that will resonate deeply with every coach, guide, and changemaker who believes that our presence, not perfection, is what truly ignites change.Key TakeawaysWhy great coaching begins where the rules end; trusting your own wisdom and humanity.The journey from nursing to coaching and what it reveals about care, service, and transformation.How to embrace “enoughness” and coach from your unique authenticity, not expertise.What the “second half of life” teaches us about purpose, letting go, and contribution.How small acts of compassion and presence ripple out to create a kinder worldLearn More About Today’s GuestKaren Foy Associates & The Coach Tribe website ****→ http://www.thecoachtribe.com/Karen on LinkedIn → https://www.linkedin.com/in/karenfoy/Karen’s new book → Breaking The Coaching Code: How Great Coaches Transcend The Rules by Karen Foy, https://amzn.to/42syIbKExplore Sacred Changemakers:Start your journey → SacredChangemakers.comDiscover Your Resonance Code → quiz.SacredChangemakers.comJoin our community → SacredChangemakers.com/communitySubscribe to The Coaching (R)evolution Newsletter → https://www.linkedin.com/newsletters/the-coaching-r-evolution-7371571227230101504Books by Jayne Warrilow:‘Becoming: Poems From The Thresholds Of Change’ → https://amzn.to/42DM1WI‘Beyond Profit: The Sacred Changemaker’s Guide To Reimagining Business And Leading Regenerative Change → https://amzn.to/40g3By5The 10 Day Coaches MBA: The Small Business Book For Coaches Who Want To Play Bigger → https://amzn.to/46yJRZPConnect with Jayne on LinkedIn → https://www.linkedin.com/in/jaynewarrilow/Support the Podcast & Our MissionA huge thank you to our Resonance Collective members whose support helps us align with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals and amplify conscious impact worldwide.If this episode resonated with you, please subscribe, rate, and review on iTunes or your preferred platform; it helps us reach more coaches and changemakers who are ready to step into their sacred calling.About Sacred ChangemakersSacred Changemakers is leading a coaching (r)evolution, where coaches move beyond fixing individuals to helping shape a new world.

What happens when artificial intelligence begins to engage with the deepest questions of human consciousness and change?In this very special solo episode of the Sacred Changemakers Podcast, host Jayne Warrilow introduces a groundbreaking experiment, a Deep Dive conversation between two AI voices exploring the key themes within her acclaimed white paper, Emergence.This episode isn’t just about the ideas; it’s about the medium itself, how AI is evolving to engage with human thought in ways that feel startlingly alive. The dialogue you’ll hear explores what it means to move beyond traditional paradigms of change into a more regenerative, resonant, and sacred way of living and leading.Jayne invites you to listen with two sets of ears:One tuned to the wisdom and insights emerging from the paper — exploring consciousness, evolution, and the future of coaching.And the other attuned to what’s happening in the field of AI — what this technology reveals about creativity, truth, and our shared future.Together, these voices open a portal into new questions: How is emergence happening through us? Can machines reflect consciousness, or only mirror it? And what might this all mean for the sacred work of coaching and changemaking in the years ahead? And yes, the irony is AI discusses the evolution of consciousness…Key Themes:The evolution of consciousness and the call to sacred change.Moving beyond optimization to true emergence.The dance between human intelligence and artificial intelligence.Resonance as the next frontier for coaching and transformation.What it means to be human in a post-AI world.Learn More About Emergence:The Emergence White Paper ****→ https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/id104v25vpz0q2imrmjhj/Emergence-Deeper-Calling-of-Coaching-in-an-Age-of-Crisis.pdf?rlkey=6yhem0t8cnvewszqfmlwg3ap0&dl=0Explore Sacred Changemakers:Start your journey → SacredChangemakers.comDiscover Your Resonance Code → quiz.SacredChangemakers.comJoin our community → SacredChangemakers.com/communitySubscribe to The Coaching (R)evolution Newsletter → https://www.linkedin.com/newsletters/the-coaching-r-evolution-7371571227230101504/Books by Jayne Warrilow:‘Becoming: Poems From The Thresholds Of Change’ → https://amzn.to/42DM1WI‘Beyond Profit: The Sacred Changemaker’s Guide To Reimagining Business And Leading Regenerative Change → https://amzn.to/40g3By5The 10 Day Coaches MBA: The Small Business Book For Coaches Who Want To Play Bigger → https://amzn.to/46yJRZPConnect with Jayne on LinkedIn → https://www.linkedin.com/in/jaynewarrilow/Support the Podcast & Our MissionA huge thank you to our Resonance Collective members whose support helps us align with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals and amplify conscious impact worldwide.If this episode resonated with you, please subscribe, rate, and review on iTunes or your preferred platform; it helps us reach more coaches and changemakers who are ready to step into their sacred calling.About Sacred ChangemakersSacred Changemakers is leading a coaching (r)evolution, where coaches move beyond fixing individuals to helping shape a new world.
