She emphasises the need for adults to navigate profound changes in a volatile world, advocating for a new operating system for life that embraces creativity, self-permission, and intentional living. Gillian shares insights on the importance of looking for challenges, engaging with one's desires, and celebrating individuality as a means to contribute meaningfully to society. Jillian Reilly is a founder, writer, keynote speaker, and consultant with 30 years of experience driving change across Africa, Asia, and Central Europe. She helps individuals and organisations navigate transformation and growth. Her upcoming book, The Ten Permissions, empowers readers to redesign their lives for the disruptive realities of the 21st century. Jillian’s work has appeared in The Washington Post, Newsweek, and the LA Times. Her memoir, Shame, reflects on her early career in international aid, explored further in her TEDx talk Vain Aid. She also hosted the Ford Foundation-funded podcast Courageous Conversations, featuring African activists and change makers. _____________________________________________________________________ LINKS: Jillian Reilly- Special Guest LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jillianreilly/ Instagram:  https://www.instagram.com/thetenpermissions/?hl=en Website:  www.tenpermissions.com Substack: https://substack.com/@thetenpermissions Paul Fairweather - Co-host https://www.paulfairweather.com Chris Meredith - Co-host https://www.chrismeredith.com.auSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
