In this episode, I sit down with Nicky Lowe, CEO of Luminate Group and Founder of Wisdom For Working Mums. Nicky is an award-winning executive coach and leadership consultant who has spent the past 18 years helping leaders in some of the world’s top organisations thrive, both personally and professionally.
But Nicky’s journey isn’t just about leadership in the boardroom - it’s also deeply personal. After experiencing burnout following the birth of her first child, she reimagined her approach to work, life, and motherhood. Now, she’s on a mission to support career-driven women to combine their professional ambitions with family life in a way that’s sustainable, fulfilling, and free from burnout.
What You’ll Learn in This Episode:
- Nicky’s career journey from corporate tech to leadership coaching - and how numerous personal experiences shaped her path
- How an empowering leadership style can foster growth, resilience, and wellbeing
- The realities of balancing a career and motherhood, and how burnout became a turning point in Nicky’s life
- Why Nicky’s work has expanded beyond working mums to focus on sustainable leadership for everyone
Key Takeaways:
- Leadership isn’t just about professional success—it’s about personal sustainability too
- Burnout can be a catalyst for powerful change when we allow it to shift our priorities and redefine success
- Empowering leadership styles aren’t just good for teams—they’re crucial for individual growth and resilience
- Balancing career and family life requires intentional boundaries, self-awareness, and support systems
