Join host, Jennifer England as she continues to slow down and embrace the tensions that come with leading social change.

What does it mean to live and lead wisely? How can we strengthen our resilience when we'd rather have certainty and control? How can we develop the courage to be more authentically ourselves- when there's such pressure to conform and arrive?


Through the power of film, embodiment, living systems, ancestral healing, leadership and more Jennifer explores how to lead with more wisdom, curiosity and courage so we can skillfully work with this cultural moment.

Welcome to the season two finale of The Tension of Emergence.

In this season, we composted outdated ideas of leadership. And in this episode, Jennifer shares her favorite moments of each season two interview.

She also offers three core principles that she’s carrying forward from these conversations — Embracing the Messy Middle, Embracing Wisdom Over Information, and Embracing the Fluidity of Identity.

Jennifer offers a practice, inspired by her conversation with conductor and musician, Ben Zander.

Comparing ourselves to others is totally human and it limits possibility. Jennifer encourages you to interrupt patterns of comparison that keep you trapped in the “calculating self”. Instead of getting rid of “comparison”, she invites curiosity and acceptance when “less than” or “better than” emotions and thoughts arise.

If you play with the practice and discover a new way of seeing or experiencing your ‘self’ we’d love to hear from you! Email Jennifer with any questions or observations- jennifer@sparkcoaching.ca
