Owning Your Power with Cassandra Kelly
As an advisor to some of the world’s most powerful people, Cassandra Kelly AM has experienced a life of influence that’s been unlocked by traits that may surprise you – softness and compassion: “I think there’s an assumption that when you’ve achieved so much and you’re pushing and you overcome and you’re resilient…that there [must be] a harshness that comes with that”. Cassandra pushes back against this idea and instead highlights the importance of kindness and authenticity, and how these are central to brand and business both.
Cassandra credits a centring of her six year old self with keeping her authentic, resilient and influential – “People ask about your divinity or whatever is spiritual connection you have, and it’s my six year old that is my courage and my bravery”. After some challenging teen years, Cassandra’s return to the courage of her child self is central to her influence journey, one that has seen her travel the world working with global leaders.
From Sydney’s Northern Beaches to the skyline of Manhattan, her open hearted excitement for possibility is contagious. She caught up with Samantha Dybac all the way from New York to share her keys to a career that leads to your most authentic and powerful self, no matter your field.
