Joe Foster, Founder of Reebok, born with the ‘DNA of an improver’, shares his incredible story in this fascinating conversation. Joe’s grandfather was the founder of J W Foster & Sons (Athletic Shoes) Ltd and the inventor of the Spiked Running Shoe and the Trainer (Sneaker).
Joe and his late brother Jeff were born into the J W Foster & family business, but on their return after 2 years away from home on National Service, they asked questions. The year was 1955 and the brothers saw a business still rooted in the 1930’s. Their Father and Uncle were now operating the business and spent more time feuding than collaborating.
So, in 1958 Joe and Jeff left the Foster business to set up a new Sports Shoe company; Mercury Sports Footwear, which after 18 months they changed its name to REEBOK.
By 1965, Joe was on his way to the NSGA (National Sporting Goods of America) Show in Chicago, which was the start of many Global adventures and experiences that after 15 years brought him together with Paul Fireman and later many Stars of film and television.
As the surviving Founder of Reebok, Joe still welcomes the opportunity to travel and recount those early stories from start-up to taking the company to a $4 billion business, overtaking Adidas & Nike to become the Worlds’ No.1 sports brand.

TJ Power is a young, passionate Psychological Wellbeing Consultant and Founder of TJ Power Health Ltd. He is also the Director of Mental Health & Wellbeing at Whitecalm, The Wellbeing Company
At 17/18 we had some real difficulties in my family with a lot of challenges coming up and I basically found I had some kind of innate ability to guide people in my family and I’m the youngest. At that point I chose to study Psychology and fell in love with this conversation of ‘what’s going on in our heads.
During his Master’s year, TJ became a lecturer at Exeter University and began building Psychology modules. He was teaching mindfulness and mental health and said “The mindfulness has been a complete ‘game-changer’”!
TJ developed ‘The Tj Power Journey’, a holistic mental health program which guides individuals towards behavioural alterations that can have a profound influence on the experience they have in their minds. This journey explores self-talk, emotion, mindfulness, validation, movement, nature, sleep, gut health, and technology.
TJ has provided successful workshops for Coca-Cola, nChain (Technology), Oxford University, Toronto University, Cancer Service Partnership, Pizza Hut Digital Ventures, HR organisations and many more.
