EP 7: The Consciousness Agenda: Rewiring the workplace with Charley Johnson
What if business isn’t just about profit, but presence? In this compelling conversation, Bel Bare is joined by Charley Johnson—entrepreneur, visionary, and Chief Consciousness Officer, to explore a radical reframe of leadership. Together, they investigate what happens when consciousness takes a central seat at the executive table.
As the structures of business begin to shift, new roles emerge, ones that prioritise self-awareness, energetic responsibility, and the subtle architecture of culture. Charley shares his journey toward integrating spirituality, mindfulness, and personal development into the corporate world, and discusses why the Chief Consciousness Officer could be the most important role of the decade.
With insight, humour, and clarity, this episode invites you to question the systems we inherit, the stories we believe, and how leadership might look when it's rooted in presence.
