Women In Confidence with Lotty Roberts - Women In Confidence

Episode 2

Change, Mindfulness and the Importance of Being Quiet featuring Lotty Roberts

For over 20 years Lotty has been helping people learn how to successfully navigate through change, challenge and uncertainty. A former competitive runner and senior leader in the corporate world, Lotty discovered mindfulness to help her navigate her own challenges and change in the form of an autoimmune condition, chronic pain, double hip replacement, ongoing stress and corporate burnout. The benefits were far reaching. 

Through her own personal journey with Mindfulness - Lotty instantly saw an opportunity to integrate a mindful approach towards leadership, culture, resilience and indeed change, believing change done well is ‘Mindfulness in action’.

Inspired to share the practice with others, Lotty trained as a Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction teacher and threads her teachings of mindfulness through all that she does. Lotty is also certified emotional culture specialist and facilitator of ‘The Emotional Culture Deck’, registered 200YTT yoga teacher, Breathwork instructor, host of 'The Vulnerability Effect Podcast', and founder of Mind U – a business dedicated to helping individuals, teams, leaders and organisations to mindfully flourish through the uncertainty, challenges and opportunities that the world arounds us presents. 

Lotty’s favourite quote and inspiration behind her work is “You can’t stop the waves but you can learn how to surf” by Jon Kabat-Zinn - her mission and purpose in all that she does is help others to surf through those continual waves of change.

Profile picture for Vanessa Murphy

Vanessa Murphy

Vanessa is a Strategy and HR Consultant and a Podcast Host.
Vanessa got her first proper job in 1998 when she joined as an Officer in the Royal Navy and then after 15 years doing that, she transitioned into senior HR and Culture roles working for organisations all over the world.
She now has 2 strings to her bow....
Firstly, she is an empath, avid people watcher and she likes to observe people when they were operating with confidence and self-belief and learn strategies, tools and techniques from them. She helps women with confidence at work and her Women In Confidence podcast is a way for her to share her knowledge and her network with a wider audience.

Secondly, she has always been fascinated by what makes a company great to work for and now devotes her time to creating workplaces that not only have impressive performance but are also human centred - hint... they are not mutually exclusive. Her Conversations About Company Culture podcast is her way of sharing ways to build great organisations.
