Issue 63 - The Female CEO

February can be a strange middle ground, can’t it?

The initial rush of the new year has settled, but in its place often comes a quieter, more insistent pressure. The pressure to “perform” our success, to keep up with the digital noise, and to ensure our brands are shouting loud enough to be heard over the hum of the algorithms.

But as I sat with the articles from our brilliant columnists for Issue 63, a different theme began to emerge. A rebellion of sorts.

We are living in an era where content is becoming cheap and abundant. AI can draft our posts, script our videos, and mimic our tone in seconds. But there is one thing it cannot do: it cannot own your narrative. It cannot replicate your lived experience, your specific energy, or the “human frequency” that builds real, unbreakable trust.

This issue is about reclaiming that narrative. It’s about moving from being merely visible to being truly found.

It is an invitation to stop treating your story as a “marketing task” and start seeing it for what it truly is: a leadership behaviour.

As always, I am blown away to share that our global circle continues to grow, with readers now joining us from over 181 countries. Whether you are leading a team in a boardroom or building a legacy from your kitchen table, you are part of a brilliant, collective voice that is redefining what it means to lead on our own terms. 

 

On our cover this month is Rebecca Barr, the real-life embodiment of what happens when a woman decides to stop playing by the old rules. Her journey from the corporate world to building a multi-six-figure legacy for her six children is a powerful masterclass in wealth, freedom, and redefining the “possible”.

Across these pages, you will find conversations that challenge the “work in silence” myth. We dive into the “Capacity Trap” and why your overwhelm might actually be a trust management problem. We explore the “5 Chairs” of leadership behaviour and the fierce, radical act of self-love that comes through simplifying your life.

This issue doesn’t ask you to shout louder.

It invites you to speak with more purpose. To own your story with more conviction. To protect your capacity so that when you do speak, it carries the weight it deserves.

So, settle in. Grab a cuppa. Take a breath.

You don’t need to be the “everything” to be the “someone”. You just need the courage to be seen as you are.

And if 2026 is the year you finally make your own “Visibility Vow” - if you are ready to stop hiding and start amplifying your message across those 181 countries - we are here to ensure the microphone is on and the stage is set for you.
