The Creation of Magic Thread Media and the Rise of Conscious Leadership

Recently I had the pleasure of joining Sandra Bargman on The Edge of Everyday for a conversation about voice, vision, and the courage it takes to bring ideas into reality.

We explored the path that led from corporate leadership to founding Create Magic at Work and launching Magic Thread Media, a curated network created to support conscious voices and meaningful dialogue. Along the way we talked about spiritual intelligence in the workplace, the role of edge walkers as bridge builders during times of change, and the shift that happens when leaders stop waiting for perfect conditions and begin moving forward with what they know to be true. At its heart, the conversation is about trusting your voice, honoring the ideas that keep calling you forward, and creating spaces where those ideas can grow into something real.

Moments That Create Momentum:

1. The Moment Vision Becomes Action – The internal shift that happens when leaders stop waiting for perfect conditions and decide to bring an idea fully into reality.
2. Spiritual Intelligence in the Workplace – Explore how conversations about purpose, awareness, and inner knowing are beginning to reshape how leadership shows up in modern organizations.
3. Edgewalkers and the Courage to Navigate Change – Discover how bridge builders help individuals and organizations sense what is emerging and respond creatively during times of uncertainty.
4. Moving Forward Without Perfect Conditions – See how the pursuit of perfection can delay powerful ideas and what happens when leaders choose momentum instead.
5. The Power of Finding Your Authentic Voice – Learn how storytelling, podcasting, and meaningful dialogue sharpen a leader’s message and strengthen their clarity.
6. Building Communities Around Meaningful Work – Hear the deeper vision behind Magic Thread Media and the importance of creating spaces where conscious voices can grow and be heard.
