Welcome to Below the Waterline -a podcast about humanising leadership from the inside out.


Host Ratna invites you into a space where real, human-to-human conversations happen. Below the surface. Where the magic is.


This podcast is for anyone who wants to go deeper, past the polished exterior of leadership and into the beliefs, values, and invisible patterns that shape how we truly show up in the world.


Ratna draws on years of experience working with individuals, teams, and organisations across many cultures, her own personal journey of deep inner work, and a lifelong connection to both ancient wisdom traditions and modern science.


Marshall Goldsmith said it best: what got you here won't get you there. While technology continues to race ahead, the human fundamentals of leadership are still lagging behind. Ancient traditions have always known this, that real transformation comes from depth, not surface.


Each episode brings you reflections and insights from the deeper work, tools gathered from years of practice, uncomfortable truths and the breakthroughs that follow, and real heart-to-heart conversations.


This is your invitation to shape a new kind of leadership : Human to Human, Heart to Heart.


Let's go below the waterline, together.

  • 5. Uncovering the Story Behind Your Values
    Jun 18 2026

    This is episode is a real gift.

    I decided to give you the exact five-step process I use in my masterclasses, retreats, and one-to-ones, the same process that stops people in their tracks every time.

    We go below the surface to find where your values really came from, what they were protecting, and whether they still serve who you are today.

    The five steps:

    • Name it
    • When did I first learn this?
    • What was I trying to keep safe?
    • Does this still serve me?

    Choose consciously ! This is the real work.

    And when you go deep enough, transformation doesn't take 66 days.

    It can happen in a single moment of honest awareness.

    Come with something to write with. You'll want to.

    Next episode - the why of values, and how to use them to have healthy, productive debate with the people around you even when your versions look very different.

    Find me in the show notes to go deeper.

  • 4. The Value Story
    Apr 29 2026

    So many of us lived on borrowed values and in this episode we delve into what that means and discover how this shapes our beliefs, attitudes and ultimately our behaviours. If they are borrowed are they valid in for who we are today?

    Listen in and explore why our story is the root cause of what drives our behaviours above the waterline.

  • 3. Humility, Kindness and Love
    Apr 16 2026

    What if the person you've been searching for was already there all along?

    In this special episode, number three, Ratna takes an intentional detour from the values work to share a powerful experience from the UK's first HKL International Conference, a gathering built around three words: Humility, Kindness, and Love.

    It's a reminder that we are not one person at work and another person at home. We are one human being. And when we dare to bring the wholeness of who we truly are into everything we do - our leadership, our relationships, our everyday moments, everything changes.

    This isn't idealism. It's the most courageous and practical work any leader will ever do.

    This Episode is dedicated to the HKL Global movement - be sure to check out the amazing work they are doing HKL | Humility, Kindness & Love Global Movement.
