There’s something truly magnetic about hearing a woman share her story—raw, real, and completely unfiltered. This episode is a soulful reminder that you don’t need to be famous to be impactful. Sometimes, it’s the quietest voices that carry the loudest purpose.

👋 Welcome, beautiful leader:

In today’s episode, I sit down with the incredible Ondine Delavelle—a coach, trainer, and fellow Inner Development Goals (IDG) Ambassador—whose journey from volunteering at a refugee shelter at just 18 years old to leading powerful impact initiatives will leave you feeling inspired, grounded, and seen.

This is the kind of conversation that reminds us why we lead.

Why we show up.

Why we dare to keep growing, even when imposter syndrome comes knocking.

💡 Key Learnings & Messages for New Women Leaders:

You don’t need to have it all figured out. Ondine's story proves that purposeful leadership often starts in unexpected places. You grow into your power, not arrive fully formed.
The best leaders lead with empathy. Learn how nonviolent communication and emotional intelligence can transform not only your leadership but your relationships at home and work.
Vulnerability is not weakness—it’s a superpower. Discover how leaning into honesty, even with self-doubt, is the gateway to real confidence and connection.
You are not alone in the self-doubt. Ondine shares how she dealt with the inner critic when stepping into leadership roles—and how she gently turned down the volume on those voices.
Leadership doesn’t mean knowing it all. Real impact comes from asking great questions, staying curious, and leading with both head and heart—yes, that’s what my Empowered Leadership Method is all about.
Small actions create big ripple effects. Whether you're volunteering, raising your voice, or creating space for others to be seen—impact is about intention, not title.

Ondine refers to a number of organisations and resources which can be found here.
