Camille Neyhouser with Russ Watts: Holding Space for Duality

Lisa Tilstra Episode 247

Today’s conversation is with Dr. Camille Neyhouser— a leadership coach, storyteller, and systems thinker with a deep curiosity for human transformation.


Camille began her career with 15 years in the international nonprofit sector before
transitioning into full-time coaching. She’s now spent the last five years guiding
individuals, teams, and organizations through meaningful change — helping them
navigate complexity with clarity and compassion.


But Camille isn’t just a coach. She’s a weaver of stories — currently writing a book
about her grandmother’s journey as a single mother in 1950s France. She’s also the
creator of immersive, myth-based dinner experiences that have taken place in
Florence and New York, where narrative, symbolism, and shared meals become a
gateway to self-discovery.


At the heart of Camille’s work is a powerful question:
How can we teach people, systems, and organizations to hold duality — with
presence?


In this episode, Camille shares the transition she’s in now, the themes that won’t
leave her alone, and the kinds of questions that light her up — including one that’s
simple but profound:  Can you help me find my joy again, like the perfumes?


You can find Camille on LinkedIn, where she continues to explore the edges of
leadership, creativity, and becoming.
