    What a topic, what a person- Chris is UNREAL. From creating The Candle That Smells Like Discrimination to making a real change in her luxury travel recruitment agency, they are making a real change by storm.

  • 'Sleep is For the Weak' vs. 'No Sleep Makes One Weak' with Dr Lindsay Browning

    Listen to this very real episode on the impact of sleep and lack of sleep & insomnia. While its ok for you to not sleep and try to function, please don't impose this thought process on your staff. The increasing number of stakeholders who expect workers to carry on with no sleep & with high levels of job related stress is hitting an all time high. While targets are important, and yes, having a workforce that understands this is paramount, is not to say that when a member of staff approaches you to say they cannot function properly in their day to day lives as they are having trouble sleeping you should tell them to 'man up' or 'carry on'. Shockingly, I face this with businesses all the time. Maybe if we all knew the dangerous impact that lack of sleep has on us, we might help promote healthy sleep which goes hand hand with work-life-balance. Listening to this episode is your first step in valuing your health and sleep. And doing something about it as an even further step in bettering the quality of your life. Enjoy.

  • Being Bullied or Being a Bully? Defining the Blurred Line ft Linda Crockett
    I have a conversation with Linda Crocket- workplace bullying expert in Canada. Almost all of us have a different definition to what bullying means or how behaviour is exactly defined. Is bullying and act or a behaviour? Is it even bullying if it’s between two professional adults in the workplace? The reason why organisations do not have clear policies on this is because of the very fact that these questions remain unanswered. But today, Linda makes it transparent for both employers and employees on warning signs and pre-aggression acts that lead to workplace bullying. We can all take something from this one. Enjoy.

  • Single Mum Gives Up Career to Care for Neurodiverse Son. Could This Have Been Avoided? Ft Erin Walsh
    Erin talks to me about her struggles with being a young single mum to later find out about her son, Jack's Autism. While her path in life wasn't easy she has a very important message to other parents out there who are going through similar situations. And equally importantly, she has a message for all employers in todays corporate world. Listen to Erin's account of her life and the very raw emotions she experienced and how her previous employer and current employer dealt with her as a person.
    I have to say, I am in awe of Erin's perseverance in not stopping to achieve all that she wants for herself and her boy, Jack. But, perseverance is only one part of the battle. The other is employers and the education system. 
    This story is going to touch so many hearts.
