Emergence. Leading from the Field

Leading with Sensitivity and Strength - With Special Guest, Steph Ellen

Emergence. Leading from the Field — Episode 7: "Leading with Sensitivity and Strength"
In this episode, Steph Ellen shares her transformative journey from a high-achieving, single-focused veterinary career to becoming a multidimensional coach blending science, spirituality, and somatic practices. She discusses how a literal “wake-up call”—being kicked in the face by a horse—led her to question her identity, goals, and fulfillment. This moment sparked her exploration into mindfulness, nervous system regulation, and subconscious reprogramming.
Steph describes her coaching approach as intuitive and evidence-based, supporting highly sensitive, high-achieving individuals to lead with resilience and authenticity. She emphasizes the importance of de-shaming sensitivity, recognizing and dismantling protective patterns like perfectionism and people-pleasing, and reframing sensitivity as a superpower.
A key part of her work involves helping clients slow down, cultivate inner safety, and expand their capacity for presence and impact—without burnout. She also highlights the challenge many face in embodying nervous system work, especially in high-pressure industries like law and veterinary medicine, where operating in constant stress often goes unrecognized.
Ultimately, this episode is a compassionate and empowering look at what it means to lead from a place of alignment, regulation, and self-awareness.
🎙️ Tune in, be inspired, and begin your own emergence. See you in the field.

The Power of the Pause: Stillness and Silence in Leadership

In this episode of Emergence: Leading from the Field, Artemis invites us into the radical wisdom of stillness. Far from being a luxury or afterthought, the pause is revealed as a powerful leadership capacity — a doorway to clarity, intuition, and aligned action. She explores how rest, silence, and spaciousness allow us to meet complexity with presence, not urgency. You’ll also be guided through a simple practice to access the pause within, especially in times of pressure or transition.

Systems as Living Fields - Sensing the Whole

In this episode of Emergence: Leading from the Field, Artemis expands the lens from the individual to the collective, exploring how systems — teams, families, organisations, even movements — are not static structures, but living, breathing fields. She unpacks how every system holds memory, mood, and unspoken dynamics, and how true leadership begins when we sense and respond to these deeper layers. Through real-world stories and the lens of systemic constellations, this episode offers a powerful invitation to lead not just from the mind, but from deep attunement to the field.

The Body as a Field - Leadership Begins in Presence

In Episode 2 of Emergence: Leading from the Field, Artemis explores the body not just as a vessel, but as a living field — a wise, sensing instrument that shapes how we lead. She invites us to shift from performing leadership in the mind to embodying it through presence, intuition, and inner truth. This episode offers reflections on somatic awareness, the intelligence of sensation, and includes a simple practice you can return to anytime you need to ground yourself in clarity. If you’ve ever longed to lead more authentically — from the inside out — this conversation is for you.

When Worlds Collide

In this opening episode of Emergence: Leading from the Field, Artemis Evangelidi invites you into a new kind of leadership conversation — one rooted in presence, wholeness, and the unseen intelligence of the field. She shares her personal journey from corporate law to conscious systems work, and introduces the themes this podcast will explore: regenerative leadership, intuition in business, embodied transformation, and the deep wisdom available when we learn to lead from within. If you’re sensing a call to lead differently — from depth, not just direction — this space is for you.
