Life is a Game

Lynne Erasmus and Joanne Lockwood explore the idea that “life is a game” and what changes when you stop handing your power to other people and start playing by rules you consciously choose.

They talk candidly about confidence, self-worth and the stories we tell ourselves, including Lynne’s early experience of losing her mother to suicide and how that shaped her mindset and determination to choose life, lightness and opportunity.

The conversation also covers practical ways to step outside your comfort zone with a “safety net,” learning to own failure, and how rest, reflection and healthier habits can reduce burnout and create more space for creativity.

Towards the end, Lynne describes her work with CEOs on creating a winning culture: closing the disconnect between leaders and teams, involving employees in shaping vision and outcomes, and building belonging and inclusion by valuing people as essential contributors rather than costs.
