Alberto is a fellow organiser of DisruptHR in Houston - and I had no idea, until our conversation about some of the great work he and his team at InZync have achieved over the last few years. I was blown away! 

His message on collaboration, discipline and how businesses need to continue to rethink how they structure and manage their workforce to maximise productivity and efficiency. 

He shares the impact and ROI that organisations have benefited from working with Alberto. He is also the kind of person you could just talk to for hours! 

When Meshell agreed to be a guest on MindAbility Matters - I had no idea how the conversation would go.

It was incredible - The Power of the Unplanned and how she has lived a life that has brought her to doing the great work she does today. She doesn't hold back and if you want to be inspired THIS is a conversation that's a must listen to! 

I've tried them all - the red light helmets, the evening primrose tablets - no one, but no one tells you how bad the menopause is going to be and I've been on a mission to find a full healthcare regime that works for me. Little did I realise that one of the answers was literally down the road from me!

 I met Alan who is one of the founders of Oxydise who manufacture red light therapy beds and hyperbaric oxygen chambers. BOTH of these pieces of technology have turned things around for me. More energy, less bloating, my hair is beginning to grow back. 

There is so much more to this technology and Alan shares how these products have been helping elite sporting athletes and those with illnesses. 

Like me he is eternally curious - which is how he originally found out about what
these technologies can do when he had nowhere else to turn. 

He is also Board of Undersea Medicine Qualified. 

This is very different for us and WELL worth a listen!

With DisruptHR Dallas 5.0 preparations well underway, we invited our speakers on the Show to talk about their work, their why – and what they are going to present in September. 

Rodney didn’t hold back and shared his childhood experiences and how they have shaped him today. He is the epitome of someone who wouldn’t take no for an answer and believed in himself. With no ego, sheer determination and a who ton of good grace! 

Today, he’s a Business Growth Partner, a TEDx speaker and a keynote speaker for Fortune 500 companies. 

Cindy knows her stuff when it comes to M&A and working with PE backed organisations - particularly those going through a lot of change.. We talked about the importance of HR leading from the front and the impact that great HR can have; especially when two cultures are coming together as a result of a merger. 

And, why it's critical for leadership to be able to move at speed during scaling, and change of any description. We also discussed, why pace alone isn't enough  - being able to respond in the moment is critical!

There was so much more to this conversation and it's well worth a listen!

Jen has 'funny bones' - and a background and career that needs to be turned into a film someday! She's a bestselling author, recovering comedian and a TEDx speaker. 

But why did we go ahead and record this show on 4th July?! We came up with the idea after we spoke recently about her next Executive Presence Accelerator. Her work on helping women to gain the confidence and skills to OWN a leadership role, sets her apart from so many other coaches I have met over the years. It's not just about her authenticity, it's the depth of her knowledge, both technical and experientially that truly sets her apart.

Intrigued? I hope so! 

If you do nothing else today, listen this conversation with Tanarra. Not only is she exceptionally talented, she is truly bringing about change in the world of work. She leads with compassion, dedication with a touch of challenger - something we all need right?

She doesn't just build culture with her clients  - she designs it. 

Great conversation with Julie as we talked about the hidden $1m that companies don't realise they are losing before moving onto Swiss cheese, lights sabre's and combat. 

It never cases to amaze me just how much money small businesses across the US are losing - and it just doesn't have to be that way. 

face2faceHR have created something really special in an HR franchise model. Their team collaborate rather than compete and the support their franchisee's gets is second to none.

Eleanor started the franchising aspect of her business several years ago and the team has since expanded to 16 franchisees with more to come. We talk about why this model works so well and how the business has evolved. Justin shared his perspective on why face2faceHR's model is so different as a deep franchising expert and now part of the team. 

face2faceHR's values have always stood out for me - find out why they are creating something really special in helping business owners to create something on their terms, a value that is very close to my heart! 

We were late in going live as we were having such a great conversation in the studio beforehand. Irene has had  a diverse and interesting career which has enabled her to add a commercial perspective to the work she delivers for her clients all over the US. 

The conversation covered so many different topics around the world of work and the struggles that business leaders are facing. Irene has a refreshing vision and it's well worth a listen!
