  • #49 Why Zen Is The New Sexy With Alexandra Kafka

    Send us Fan Mail

    Alexandra Kafka is a mental fitness speaker and facilitator, and the founder of Oxyzn, a wellbeing consultancy supporting leaders and organisations operating under sustained pressure.

    After experiencing burnout while building a high-performance career, she spent two years travelling across 34 countries as a digital nomad, learning from Buddhist monks, neuroscientists, and elite athletes to understand why ambition so often comes at the cost of health.

    This journey led to the creation of her Zen Warrior framework — a neuroscience-informed mental fitness approach designed to help individuals and teams enter states of focus, flow, and sustainable performance. Her work reframes burnout not as personal failure, but as a failure of recovery systems.

    Since 2020, Alexandra has delivered talks, wellbeing programmes, and immersive experiences for leaders across 50+ organisations including Wells Fargo, Hilton, and BDO. She has spoken at 25 conferences and festivals and hosted retreats throughout the Caribbean and Asia. She is currently publishing her first book, Zen Warrior: Mental Fitness Rituals to Help You Stress Less, Sleep Better & Live Fully

  • #43 Elspeth Beard: The Journey That Changed Her Life & Women's History- Forever

    Send us Fan Mail

    ELSPETH BEARD is the first British female motorcyclist to ever solo ride the globe as well as an award-winning architect. In 1982, at the age of just twenty-three, Elspeth Beard left her family and friends in London and set off alone on a 35,000 mile solo adventure around the world on her 1974 BMW R60/6 with no sponsorship or support, in an age before email, cell phones and satnavs.  

    Her two-and-a-half year journey saw her survive life-threatening illnesses and numerous accidents. She witnessed riots and civil uprisings that forced her to fake documents, and she fended off physical threats, sexual attacks, biker gangs, and corrupt police who were convinced that she was trafficking drugs.

    Returning home in 1984, Elspeth finished her architecture degree and in 1988 brought a derelict water tower, which she spent seven years converting into her home. She runs her own architectural practice, specialising in creating and remodelling interesting and unusual buildings. She lives in a converted Victorian water tower in the southeast of England and still enjoys riding her collection of motorcycles, which includes the trusty BMW R60/6 which carried her around the world.
