Why Joy Is the Secret to Great Work with Chloe Lim

Why Joy Is the Secret to Great Work

What if joy isn’t the reward for great work, but the way great work happens?

In this energising episode, we’re joined by @Chloe
Lim to explore the serious business of
joy and why playful excellence may be one of the most underestimated forces in
learning, leadership and life. Together, we challenge the long-held belief
that play is a distraction, and instead reframe it as a powerful pathway to
deeper engagement, creativity and impact.

At a time when burnout is worn as a badge of honour and mediocrity has quietly
become the norm, this conversation invites us to rethink what excellence
really looks like. From classrooms to boardrooms, and in the everyday moments
that shape how we show up, Chloe makes a compelling case for joy as a
discipline, not a luxury.

Drawing on her unique journey from molecular biologist to performer, alongside
research in play, positive psychology and leadership, Chloe shares practical
and thought-provoking insights on how joy, story and curiosity can transform
the way we learn, lead and connect.

This conversation is for leaders, educators, creatives, parents and anyone
ready to move beyond disengagement and rediscover a sense of meaning in their
work and life.

Together, we explore how playful excellence can deepen trust, unlock potential
and create environments where people can truly thrive.

Because when we treat joy as the standard, not the exception, we don’t just
feel better — we do better.
