Spiritual Leadership and the Inner Work Revolution with Charley Johnson

In this powerful episode of Soul Sparks, we reunite with Charley Johnson—former president of the Pay It Forward Foundation and a global voice in conscious leadership. Together, we explore the intersection of spirituality, leadership, and the evolving role of the Chief Consciousness Officer in today’s business landscape. Charley shares his unconventional spiritual journey, how surrender and unlearning shape personal growth, and why awareness is the cornerstone of effective leadership. This episode offers a transformative lens on how inner work can ignite external success—not just in business but in life.

About the Guest: Charley Johnson is a thought leader, speaker, and former president of the Pay It Forward Foundation. After a decade of studying with an enlightened teacher, Charley now pioneers the concept of the Chief Consciousness Officer in business—a role that integrates presence, compassion, and expanded awareness into corporate culture. He is dedicated to guiding individuals and organizations toward deeper clarity and conscious leadership.

Key Takeaways:

• Awareness Over Achievement: Spirituality isn't about gaining something new—it’s about unlearning, surrender, and expanding awareness.

• The Myth of Disconnection: You are never disconnected from your spiritual essence—you are it.

• Chief Consciousness Officer: Consciousness already exists in business. The shift comes from making it accessible to everyone—from leadership to frontline teams.

• Balancing Being and Doing: The deeper your awareness, the more naturally you operate from a space of ‘being’ rather than forcing action.

• Inner Work as a Lifelong Journey: True leadership evolves through continuous self-awareness, not fixed practices.
