Show Notes
In this special 100th episode of Edgy Ideas, we mark a moment of reflection and celebration. Simon is joined by a panel of thoughtful voices; Chris Yates, Leslie Brissett, Eleanor Moore and Hetty Einzig, to explore a topic close to the heart, the soul at work and what it means to live a good life amidst the turbulence of our times. They reflect on the quiet yet powerful force of soul, not as something otherworldly, but that which connects us more deeply to ourselves, to each other, and to the work we do. The panel discusses: how do we re-enchant the workplace? How do we speak about 'soul' without falling into cliche or sentimentality? And how do we cultivate a spirituality that is lived, relational, and grounded in everyday acts?
Their conversation weaves personal stories with collective insights, inviting you into a space where the sacred and the secular meet.
Enjoy this rich and resonant conversation as we mark a century of episodes, and step forward soulfully into what comes next.
Key Reflections

Edgy Ideas has evolved to meet the moment - seeking pathways to live well in disruptive times.
Soul at work is not a luxury, but a necessity - a call to engage the whole person: mind, body, and essence.
Everyday spirituality matters. It's found not in lofty ideas, but in presence, care, and connection.
Work can uplift or diminish the soul - context and culture matter.
Relational dynamics are the hidden architecture of soulful work.
Activism and soul are not opposites - activism can be a soulful practice.
Grace appears in the ordinary fleeting moments that illuminate meaning.
Sacred spaces can be created anywhere we choose to be present.
Soul embraces the paradox - the light and the dark, joy and struggle, both shaping who we are.
To witness another with kindness is perhaps the most radical act of all.
