RACHAEL NEUMANN. HUMAN COGS.

ABOUT THIS EPISODE

Rachael Neumann is an uber impressive high flyer who has experienced countless successes around the globe in the ever-changing and complex worlds of venture capital investment and business. But business wasn’t the focus of our fabulous and high-octane chat. 

Instead of deep diving into her latest hot startup deal, Rachael shared some of the formative experiences that have shaped the inner narrative which has fuelled her fierce drive and ambition based on growth and acquisition, which has often come at the cost of her being able to experience fun, levity and real joy.

Rachel also shares the painful story of her brother’s sudden death aged just 21, which she internalised and has over time prevented her recognising and prioritising her own suffering, hurts and emotional wounds. 

There is so much in this conversation that we can all learn from, but at it’s very core, it’s a powerful toolkit of advice for everyone about how to give yourself permission, time and space to be who you are, and not continue to be complicit in the conditions you create for yourself.

The takeaway message is to believe we are worthy of choosing ourselves, over and over again. Which we all acknowledge is a work in progress! 

Enjoy our chat with Rachael.
