Ep 03 : The Renewal Retreat For Women Who Lead

In this episode we share an interview with the fantastic Sarah Pullos who leads the team at the Avalon Wellbeing Centre at Broughton Sanctuary in West Yorkshire in the UK. We find out about her background and her outlook and philosphy on the themes of renewal and regenerative leadership.

Broughton Sanctuary is where the Renewal Retreat for Women Who Lead is being held in April 2024. We take you behind the reasoning for the retreat and how and why it's been designed the way it has as an antidote to traditional leadership development training for women.

For example, we share an overview of the GRACE Framework and explain why adapting the principles of aikido out on the Yorkshire moors help women reconnect and rediscover their voice.

About the Podcast

The Pocket Dojō
A podcast about leading from the 'inside-out', how we lead ourselves and each other.
The Pocket Dojō is hosted by Asha Singh and Paul Crick.
In 2019, Forbes reported that $366BN was invested globally in leadership training and yet, as consulting firm McKinsey reported, most of these leadership programs fail to create the desired results.

There is a disconnect between what is taught in the classroom and what happens on the field of play in our teams and organisations.

Most of us want real leadership more, yet want the leaders we have less particularly as the majority of our organisations continue to play finite games in a world where the resources available are not.

The Pocket Dojō podcast seeks to tell stories and have conversations about why and change how we lead ourselves and each other - however small that change is - and to accomplish this one leader, one team and one organisation at a time.

Profile picture for Paul Crick

Paul Crick

As a globally recognised and accredited coach, Paul offers what every senior leader secretly craves but seldom finds: a confidential space where discretion meets exclusivity, and where one-to-one support is not just a service but a sanctuary.

Whilst his practice has a global reach, his work is both highly professional and deeply personal whether working virtually or in person from his base in Harley Street, London.

His clientele is as diverse as it is distinguished. From the boardroom to the performing stage, his clients come from many different walks of professional life but share a common thread: the pursuit of excellence. Paul has not only worked with them but has also been instrumental in supporting their journey of generative change to help them accomplish new levels of success.

Paul has been learning and practising the craft of coaching since 2007. In 2023, sixteen years later, he was elected as one of the Top 50 Thought Leaders for coaching by Thinkers 360 and selected from 17,000 candidates to be one of Dr Marshall Goldsmith’s Pay It Forward coaches in his 100 Coaches organisation.

His multidisciplinary approach to coaching is as unique as it is effective, blending science, intuition, and a deep understanding of human behaviour to unearth hidden insights and unlock untapped potential.

His clients are more often than not successful women established in senior roles working in demanding careers in the corporate world or as entrepreneurs running their own business.

What truly distinguishes Paul is his deep expertise in navigating periods of intense transition and growth. We're talking about those pivotal moments in your career and personal life where the decisions you make can set the trajectory for years to come.

His approach is designed to guide and support you through these critical periods from the inside out. This means not just tackling the external challenges but also addressing the internal dynamics that often go unnoticed but are equally crucial to attend to.

The results speak for themselves. Clients who have engaged with Paul report not just rapid growth in their professional lives but also significant improvements in their personal well-being.

In an era where change is the only constant, Paul provides the steady hand and insightful guidance that every senior leader not just desires, but fundamentally needs.
