How can it be applied?
The Inner Edge is versatile. I have used it in a variety of settings where self-awareness becomes forward motion:
Mentoring - helping understand where you are and how to progress on your terms.
Team Leadership - surfacing deeper conversations, so the team can refocus on what matters.
Strategic Planning - when teams feel scattered or reactive, this helps translate insight into clear choices.
Personal Reflection - whether journalling or taking a moment to think, it provides a prompt for what is really going on and what is needed next.
What is it?
At its heart, The Inner Edge is a reflective compass: it helps individuals and teams pause, reflect, and gain strategic awareness of where they are, where they want to go and unlock how they might start to go about that journey.
It’s built around one powerful insight: You move at the speed of your inner alignment.
Why it works?
The Inner Edge works because it invites and welcomes perspective without pressure. It doesn’t box people in - it opens them up:
Visual but flexible
Structured but intuitive
Strategic but personal
It meets you where you are and helps you move forward with clarity and ease.
The framework identifies four theme-pairs that highlight common tensions at the core of personal and professional growth:
Confidence ↔ Conviction
Without conviction, confidence drifts; without confidence, conviction stalls
Relationships ↔ Results
The quality of your relationships often defines the quality of your results
Opportunism ↔ Outputs
The longer you wait, the further away your goal feels
Procrastination ↔ Destinations
The right output needs the right opportunity at the right time
