Is curiosity the missing piece?
We’re born with it.
But somewhere along the way, we stop being as curious as we could be.
We learn to follow the rules.
To fit in.
To become who we should be –
not always who we are.
And slowly, without even noticing,
we lose touch with ourselves.
We forget what lights us up.
What gives us energy.
What we do effortlessly.
What really matters to us.
From success to stuck
That’s what happened to me.
I was doing well on paper – successful, driven, ticking all the boxes.
But inside, I felt stuck.
Stressed, stretched, and quietly unfulfilled.
I had forgotten to ask:
What do I want? What do I care about? Who am I?
Choosing to live as a Curious Creator
Three years ago, I made a decision.
I chose to live as a Curious Creator.
It wasn’t just a nice phrase – it became a way of being.
A shift in how I saw myself, my work, life.
My mantra became:
I’m a Curious Creator – with care and courage – for a more joyful and purposeful life in unity.
And it changed everything.
I stepped out of the hamster wheel and into real leadership.
The kind where I was fully me –
Standing strong in who I am.
Using my uniqueness to the fullest.
Contributing in the best way I can by simply being me.
Letting things flow. Doing what comes naturally.
“I stepped out of the hamster wheel and into real leadership – the kind where I was fully me.”
Asking curious questions
Curiosity helped me take ownership of my life.
Not just in theory – but in practical, everyday ways.
I stopped waiting for permission.
I started asking better questions:
Who am I? What gives me energy? What drains me? What do I do with ease? Where do I need support? What drives me? What really matters?
Bit by bit, I got clearer.
And with clarity came confidence.
With confidence came commitment.
To a life that felt meaningful.
And full of passion.
Not perfect.
But honest.
Energising.
Alive.
A curious way of living
This isn’t a one-off moment. It’s a way of living.
You begin to enjoy each moment –
as a moment of curiosity and creation.
You move towards something that matters.
And you contribute as you go.
A curious life means you keep asking, noticing, learning.
And the more curious you become about yourself,
the more curious you become about others.
Who are they?
What lights them up?
How can we create something even better – together?
And what about the products and services we offer?
What’s their purpose? What’s not their purpose?
What problems are we solving? Who are we solving them for?
Who needs to be involved to make this product or idea shine?
The Curious Creator playbook
These kinds of questions became the foundation of the Curious Creator Playbook.
A living tool I now use in coaching, workshops, and transformation work.
Inside the Curious Leaders coaching programme, we use this playbook step by step.
We explore what matters.
We practise curiosity.
And we bring clarity, confidence, and commitment into everyday life and leadership.
And it works.
It changes things –
Not just for the individual.
But for their teams.
For their culture.
You become a role model for curiosity.
You build trust.
You spark innovation.
You create space for real growth, honesty, and connection.

Why a curious culture matters
A curious culture isn’t just good for people – it’s good for business.
It leads to:
- Engaged, energised employees
- Stronger collaboration
- Brave, bold ideas
- Loyal customers
- Openness to change
- Agility
- Wellbeing that lasts
I’ve mapped it all out – what curiosity leads to.
And I’ve seen it in action.
In individuals, teams, and organisations.
Igniting curiosity.
Practising it.
Living it.
It’s not just a skill.
It’s a superpower.

Whether you’re just starting to ask the questions, or ready to go deeper, I’d love to explore it with you.

And it grows from there.
