Conscious Accomplishment: How Inner Growth Shapes What We Create In The World with Scott Britton

What happens when you stop treating spiritual growth and achievement as separate pursuits and begin to see them as part of one coherent path?

In this week’s episode of the Sacred Changemakers Podcast, I’m joined by Scott Britton, entrepreneur, author, community builder, CEO of Conscious Talent, and host of the EvolutionFM podcast. Scott’s journey began in the high-pressure world of tech, where he co-founded Troops, later acquired by Salesforce. Outwardly, he had all the markers of success. Inwardly, something else was stirring.

Our conversation traces the pivotal moments that led Scott to rethink accomplishment altogether, not as a race to the top, but as a practice of becoming. His work, captured in his book Conscious Accomplishment, offers a grounded, practical way to integrate inner development with the very real demands of building, leading, and making an impact in the world.

Together, we explore the patterns that shape us, the disturbances that wake us up, and why the fuel behind our ambition matters far more than we realise. Scott brings a refreshing clarity to the intersection of consciousness and creativity, showing how inner awareness doesn’t pull us away from action, but actually strengthens how we move through the world.

This is a conversation for anyone who has ever questioned the traditional definitions of success… for anyone who has hit their goals and still wondered, “Is this it?”… and for every coach and changemaker seeking a more coherent way to live, lead, and create.

Key Takeaways

1. Why the old dichotomy between spiritual development and achievement no longer serves us.
2. How disturbances and emotional triggers can become profound teachers.
3. Why patterns, not circumstances, drive most of our suffering—and how to work with them.
4. The practice of Self Repatterning and its role in shifting consciousness.
5. How to integrate inner work into leadership and daily life without compartmentalising.

How To Be A Friend (In An Unfriendly World) with Barnet Bain

What does it really mean to be a friend not just to others, but to yourself and to life itself?

In this deeply human episode of the Sacred Changemakers Podcast, I’m joined by Barnet Bain, award-winning filmmaker, author, and teacher known for exploring themes of creativity, connection, and the human spirit. His film credits include What Dreams May Come, Homeless to Harvard, and Milton’s Secret, based on the teachings of Eckhart Tolle. His new book, How to Be a Friend (in an Unfriendly World), offers a tender and practical guide to friendship as a living spiritual practice.

Together, we explore why friendship is more than a social bond; it’s a profound act of consciousness. Barnet invites us to look closely at the “bubbles” of belief and conditioning that shape our relationships, and to cultivate the courage to step beyond them. He shares what it means to become a “safe harbor” for others, how friendship differs from romantic or family love, and why being a friend to ourselves is the foundation for genuine connection.

This conversation is both wise and intimate, weaving together stories from Barnet’s creative journey, psychological insights from his Columbia University course, and timeless truths about belonging, vulnerability, and love. It’s an episode that reminds us that friendship (when practiced with intention and attention) is a radical form of transformation.

Key Takeaways

• Why genuine friendship begins with becoming a safe harbor for yourself and others.
• How to step outside “the bubble” of your own conditioning to see others more clearly.
• The difference between friendship, romantic love, and family bonds, and why all are needed.
• How small, conscious acts of friendship can transform your day and ripple through the world.
• Why “remembering the love” is the most essential practice of being human.

In this heartfelt and grounded episode of the Sacred Changemakers Podcast, I’m joined by Karen Foy, a Master Certified Coach, Coach Educator, Supervisor, and Mentor with over two decades of experience shaping the next generation of coaches. Karen’s journey began in nursing, where her natural compassion and care for others first took root. Her love of psychology led her into the NHS, where she moved through policy and service development before discovering the transformative potential of coaching. She has since served as Programme Director for Accredited Programmes at Henley Business School, where she remains a Visiting Tutor and Honorary Fellow, continuing to inspire coaches and changemakers worldwide.

Together, we explore the themes in her new book, Breaking the Coaching Code: How Great Coaches Transcend the Rules, and the deeper invitation it offers to those of us who coach to move beyond frameworks and techniques, and instead cultivate trust in our own wisdom, presence, and humanity. Karen speaks with rare humility and openness, sharing how her own path has been a lifelong process of “walking people home” to their unique selves, while continuing that same journey within her own life. We discuss concepts such as enoughness, compassion, the evolving nature of retirement, and what it truly means to live and work with integrity in a world that often demands perfection.

This is a conversation filled with heart and hard-won wisdom, one that will resonate deeply with every coach, guide, and changemaker who believes that our presence, not perfection, is what truly ignites change.

Key Takeaways

• The journey from nursing to coaching and what it reveals about care, service, and transformation.
• How to embrace “enoughness” and coach from your unique authenticity, not expertise.

What happens when artificial intelligence begins to engage with the deepest questions of human consciousness and change?

In this very special solo episode of the Sacred Changemakers Podcast, host Jayne Warrilow introduces a groundbreaking experiment, a Deep Dive conversation between two AI voices exploring the key themes within her acclaimed white paper, Emergence.

This episode isn’t just about the ideas; it’s about the medium itself, how AI is evolving to engage with human thought in ways that feel startlingly alive. The dialogue you’ll hear explores what it means to move beyond traditional paradigms of change into a more regenerative, resonant, and sacred way of living and leading.

Jayne invites you to listen with two sets of ears:

• One tuned to the wisdom and insights emerging from the paper — exploring consciousness, evolution, and the future of coaching.
• And the other attuned to what’s happening in the field of AI — what this technology reveals about creativity, truth, and our shared future.

Together, these voices open a portal into new questions: How is emergence happening through us? Can machines reflect consciousness, or only mirror it? And what might this all mean for the sacred work of coaching and changemaking in the years ahead? And yes, the irony is AI discusses the evolution of consciousness…

Key Themes:

• The evolution of consciousness and the call to sacred change.
• Moving beyond optimization to true emergence.
• The dance between human intelligence and artificial intelligence.
• Resonance as the next frontier for coaching and transformation.
• What it means to be human in a post-AI world.

The Soul’s Compass: Remembering Wholeness in the Midst of Change with Kitty Fallon

What does it mean to find your wholeness when life changes everything you thought you knew?

In this deeply conscious episode of the Sacred Changemakers Podcast, I’m joined by Kathleen “Kitty” McCann Fallon, Ph.D., a life coach, former therapist, and counselor educator with over 30 years of experience guiding individuals, couples, and families through illness, caregiving, and life-altering transitions.

What makes Kitty’s perspective so extraordinary is the way she brings both professional expertise and lived experience. Navigating her own journey with multiple sclerosis while holding the sacred role of caregiver, Kitty embodies the very wisdom she shares: that reconnecting with your soul self is not only possible in the midst of challenge, but essential. Together, we explore the thresholds of illness, identity, and caregiving, not as endings, but as openings into deeper purpose, love, and wholeness.

This isn’t just a conversation about healing; it’s about remembering who we are at the deepest level and how every person, regardless of circumstance, plays a vital role in our collective becoming.

Key Takeaways

• What it means to reconnect with your “soul self” and why it matters in times of change.
• How Kitty’s lived experience with illness and caregiving informs her coaching and deepens her compassion.
• Why seeing the inherent sacredness in every person can transform our relationships and communities.
• How caregiving and thresholds of illness can be reframed as sacred invitations to wholeness.
• Why every person matters in the co-creation of an emerging world.

If you’re navigating change, seeking deeper purpose, or wanting to hold space for others with more love and presence, this conversation is for you. Kitty’s wisdom will touch you in ways both tender and transformative. Listen in and allow this dialogue to meet you wherever you are on your own soul’s journey.
