Episode 12 - In conversation with John Spencer Williams
Episode 12 and in this episode I am in conversation with best selling author John Williams. "How do you advise people to break the rules? What is your custom answer when they say they're going to break the rules or want to break the rules?  I think it's in people already. Some people are naturally fairly conventional people and some people are not. And most people have a creative or entrepreneurial drive have something of a, of an unconventional part to them. And that's probably what this.  The idea is for this next book, it's about taking that part of you. It's different. It might be newer diversity, which you talk about, or it might be a different take on the world or some painful experience you've been through that's fueling you to be ambitious and making that. Part of what you do, and so you, I'm really just encouraging people to be themselves because that's where the weirdness comes from. I quote in, in F work, Brian Eno, and he says, ........" This is an except from our conversation.   We spoke at length about dyslexia, ADHD and John's perspective on both.  We spoke about leadership in business and how these affect business and so much more It was a fascinating conversation from which I know you will learn a whole bunch. You can connect with John on LinkedIn via the link. This is John's website and where you can find out more about John and get his books.  Just follow this link. As always, please leave a 5 star rating on Apple podcast or whatever rating you feel is appropriate. I trust you have a great day and look forward to seeing you on the next episode.

Episode 9 - It's all change at this station
It is my belief that every day is a great day to be alive and a great day to live with empowered intention. It is my mission and hope that through these podcasts, I and the guests I have on, will educate, motivate and empower you to life an extraordinary and Audacious Life. As far back as I can remember, I have been fascinated by how the brain and nervous system work and how that impacts our daily lives and our businesses. I am also fascinated by motivation, personal empowerment and personal transformation. As a dyslexic and a person with ADHD I want to know how, I want to know why I do things very differently, why I think differently, see the world differently, why there are some things I am not good at and other things I am great at. In today's episode, which is episode 9 and in this episode, I want to share with you why there has been no podcast for 3 week as well as what the podcast will look like from next week's episode. So the past few weeks have been really challenging, since firstly the death of the Queen, which I decided we would not do a podcast that week out of respect, then since the following week I have been mentally dealing with the death of a friend while trying to hold my business together and keep things working. There have been my own networking events to attend and put a smiling face on for, interviews to do and put a smiling face on for, clients to see and put a smiling face on for.  You get the picture.
Episode 6 - Dreams, passion and purpose

Episode 6 - Dreams, passion and purpose
Dream, passion, purpose. On Wednesday 28th August 1963, just 15 days after I was born, Martin Luther King shared his dream with over 250000 people in Washington and that dream reverberated around the world. 'I have a dream,' he said and he was not talking about the thing that happens somewhere between when you go to sleep and when you wake up. His dream was a vision. Something he saw and believed even though it was not at that time a reality. And the story behind how he came to share this dream in that speech on that day is incredible. He had not intended to use those phrases in the speech and was advised not to use them as, in the words of one of his advisors, they were 'trite, cliche and used too many times' in the past. And although it is likely he had practised them before the speech, they were not in the typed-up text which was on the podium that day. His speech was going well-ish, but not his normal knock-out, Baptist preacher stuff.  Behind him was his favourite gospel singer who, as he was winding up, twice call out to him, 'Tell them about the dream,' and then the magic happened. That thing, deep within his soul, that dream, that passion, that purpose, came out and slapped them right in the lips. And the world changed forever.  History was made as that thing which he saw came out with all his Baptist preacher teaching and preaching style. You see this wasn't a speech to black people. It wasn't a speech to white people, nor was it a political speech. It was a speech about a future which could be so different from the present and that is what a dream is all about.
