Big Little Things
Big Little Things
Laura Beckingham & Natalie Goni
Nat and Laura, although different in their backgrounds and approach are both leadership coaches bringing spirit, meaning and more embodiment to corporate business leaders. Based in Hong Kong and in London respectively, Big Little Things is their way of bringing topics to the table that impact humans at work wherever we are. They’re the big things in life that might baffle, intimidate or pose questions in us all, and the seemingly little things in life that might matter way more than we think.
Episode #15 CAPACITY
Capacity - our ability to acknowledge and be with all that life brings us.  In this episode we talk about what having capacity actually means in our day to day life and work, how building it supports us in our leadership, our presence and our relationships, what robs us of our capacity and why all of this is important.

Episode #14 Rest
Natalie and Laura explore the idea of ‘rest’ in this episode. Something we all seem to crave, and yet simultaneously resist, it seems that rest is an increasingly important capability for humans to develop.  So how do we learn to welcome the idea and energy of rest into our lives - finding ways to rest inside ourselves, and in the presence of each other?  What if rest was an act of preparation, rather than just one of reparation - a thing of necessity rather than a reward?

Episode #11: Expert
This is about way more than the semantics of language - it is about an energetic stance that we can each hold more consciously in service of staying open. Open to reality, open to possibility, and most importantly it feels, open to each other; a critical exploration at this time when 'EXPERTS' are deferred to more than ever, when it comes to the blueprint for how we live our lives.

Episode #10: Control
In this episode, Nat & Laura go LIVE and invite their listeners to join them in conversation; sharing their insights, experiences, and questions as they explore the topic of CONTROL! As most of us are currently in some sort of lockdown or have imposed restrictions in our daily lives, we ponder whether the ‘normal’ amount of variety, choice, and busyness we have in our day-to-day lives is at the root of our common feeling of needing to be ‘in control'.

Episode #9: Silence
Some of us avoid it at all costs, some of us can’t get enough of it. In somewhat of an oxymoron, in this week’s episode, Nat and Laura talk ‘Silence’. They talk about the power of sharing silence together online, why it’s important to have people in our lives that we can share silence with. What being a permission giver for silence might mean for you at work, how silence impacts the depth of our personal relationships.

Episode #8: Fear
Fear. What even happens in you when you read the word...? A universally felt emotion that can impact us at every level, the experience of fear doesn't have to be frightening. Here we explore how fear shows up for us personally and collectively, what impact that can have, and how if we cultivate a relationship with it it can, perhaps paradoxically, be deeply resourcing.

Episode #6: Time
What’s your relationship with time? In this episode, we ask things like ‘how does ‘linear‘ time resource us and in what ways does it challenge or limit us?’ We explore how living our working days in 30 min or 1-hour chunks might be stifling our creativity, why constant mindfulness might not be conducive to productivity, how our different propensities towards time can impact our mental health, and, how show up in the world physically.
