Mandy Lehto - Episode 168

“ You can’t tell a perfectionist not to be a perfectionist. It’s so dyed in the wool.  So that even the pursuit of trying to unpick the perfectionism gets perfectionism”

Mandy Lehto is no ordinary lady.

In fact, she has one of the greatest minds out there, and is highly sought after as a top C-Suite Executive Coach.

Her authenticity makes her highly relatable. She also has an incredible way with words, and cajoles that with her smart wit and intellect to make her a fascinating person to converse with.

From a shiny leotard wearing aerobics teacher in the 80s, to a high flying investment banker, to suffering from burnout in all of her 40s… she walks the talk having experienced the massive highs and lows that life throws at us.

Mandy makes you feel seen and heard when you speak with her and this conversation is no different.

Absolutely top-notch cracker!
