On today’s podcast, I speak to AJ Roberts, ex soldier turned business coach and keynote speaker.

After fighting in extremely dangerous situations and experiencing numerous threats to his life, AJ has managed to not only reintegrate back into ‘normal’ life, but also thrive.

His mindset is clear, and he talks to us about the transferable skills that the Army equipped him with, and how he now helps his clients to bring this highly trained approach into their lives and businesses and how he helps them to become the best version of them.

To honour Black History Month 2020, I interview Mike Killen, founder of Sell Your Service, a company that was started to motivate funnel builders to increase their prices, define a niche and sell marketing funnels for five figures +.

After the Black Lives Matter protests and the ever increasing media coverage on this issue, I wanted to start a conversation around the topic of race. Mike’s interview is eye opening and informative. Often, we are unsure as to how to refer to this issue so we say nothing. I believe conversation is the answer to progress, improvement and positive change.

Mike talks of his experience of living in a small Cornish village, where his skin colour stood out, which made his anger lash out! We discuss skin colour from the perspective of a mixed race man. We talk about the scale of racism, how it is endemic in companies and our culture and his experiences of navigating the world.

Mike is a skilled communicator and I can’t thank him enough for this inspiring episode.

In this episode of From Struggle to Success, I speak to Alex Atherton, Managing Director of Atherton Consultancy, an education consultancy based in London.

Alex was very driven in his younger years, making headteacher of a very large school in his 30’s. Working with innercity children and managing a large number of staff, he very quickly burnt out, rarely seeing his own family and missing out on his children growing up.

He took the brave decision to stop, meaning that his family who relied on him for security would have to make some big changes. Alex talks about the pressures facing men as the main breadwinner, and how he was faced with certain illness from burnout or making huge changes to his and his families lives. He got coaching, got clear on his path and talks about his shift into self employment.

On today’s podcast, I interview Stephanie Taylor, co-founder of Rent 2 Rent Success and HMO Heaven, a property training company that help their clients escape the 9-5 and create a profitable property business with little time and little money.

Stephanie was a young single mum, pregnant at 18, and now realises that shame held her back all her life. She tells us her story of how she lived on benefits, studied towards her degrees, brought up her son and then created a successful business that gives back.

She tells us that whilst she was working in employment, her mum got very ill and she wasn’t able to be there for her. This spurred her into setting up her business and since 2016, Stephanie has built a business based on recurring income that turns over more per month than she used to earn in a year.

Stephanie also shares with us her experiences of being a black, female business owner and how she overcame numerous struggles to build a successful company.
