Fabulous Fridays: Mindful Leadership & the Art of Listening with Debussy

Updated: Apr 2




It’s FabulousFridays where leaders find refreshment through music, poetry, and wellness.

Today, I’m sharing how to approach mindful listening practices 🎧 with a recommended piece: 🎶 "Clair de Lune" by Claude Debussy 🎶. Enjoy this rare recording performed by the composer himself, the legendary Claude Debussy. 


Listen now.



This piece is known for its gentle, flowing melody, creating a sense of calm and tranquility. The soothing piano notes are perfect for unwinding and letting go of stress, making it an ideal companion for a mindful listening exercise.


Who was Debussy? 🤔 Claude Debussy was a French composer (1862-1918) who dared to be different. Living during a time of immense cultural change, he broke away from traditional rules and crafted a musical style that was fluid, dreamy, and deeply emotional. It was his way of saying, "Let’s paint outside the lines!" 🎨✨


What can leaders learn from him?


Embrace Innovation: Debussy showed us the magic of thinking outside the box. Great leaders don’t just follow—they create.


Find Inspiration Everywhere: He was inspired by nature, art, and poetry. As leaders, we can expand our vision by seeking inspiration from unexpected places.


Be Authentic: Despite the trends, Debussy stayed true to his unique style. That’s a lesson in leading with integrity and authenticity.


I’ve put together a carousel with the steps on how to listen mindfully. Swipe through and let "Claire de Lune" take you on a calming journey this weekend. 🌿✨
