February 18, 2021 Susan Armstrong - Stop Standing In Your Own Way - Ep. #26
About your guest:
At a time when uncertainty is everywhere, when mental health is at the forefront of everyone’s mind and the future unknown, we need to develop the mindset, beliefs and behaviours that will not only help us through this uncertain time but set us up for success in the future.
This is something Susan Armstrong is a leading authority in. She doesn’t just talk about this – she lives it. Every day. Because she has to. 20 years of living on the streets, homeless, addicted, and abused at the hands of a notorious motorcycle gang are the circumstances that gave rise to Susan’s life-long study in human behaviour and how our own mind-set, beliefs and behaviour can sabotage success on a personal and a professional level.
It is these experiences that have made her a preferred speaker and workshop leader with some of the world’s biggest companies including Johnson & Johnson, Philips, Walmart, AB InBev, Islamic Development Bank and many more. She is the author of 2 books: An Invisible Prison, and Confidence for Life as well as being an award-winning Talent Development Expert.

February 11, 2021 Rachel Maunder - The Power of Your Story - Ep. #24
About your guest:
One of Rachel Maunder’s first observations about successful speakers was they all seemed to have a powerful story to share.
Held back by a belief that she didn’t have a story to share, Rachel set out to find a way to bring everyday stories to her speaking and now helps others to do the same.
With a passion for inspiring people to speak up and to share their stories, however big or small, and a knack for spotting the sweet spots in those stories, Rachel works with emerging speakers on finding and crafting their stories for maximum impact and greater success.
Her own speaking career began in court room, presenting cases on behalf of the Local Authority, later moving on to creating and delivering her own training on aspects of personal development, including workshops and individual coaching in presentation skills and other aspects of communication.
She is an active member of the London branch of the PSA (Professional Speaking Association) and continually works to develop her own skills both as a speaker and a coach.

February 08, 2021 Ryan Mitchell-Smith - Hearing the Music - Ep. #23
About your guest:
Ryan Mitchell-Smith is a singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist from Wakefield. He writes a variety of catchy songs that range from jazzy and bluesy to pop and electronic, but all of them tend to make great earworms. He expresses himself by playing all the parts, recording and writing his original songs, specifically using music as a therapy to cope with the health issues that have affected him over recent years.
Due to this, Ryan does not gig as often as he used to, but he gigs where and when he can when he is well enough. Ryan is possibly most well-known for his Blues Harmonica playing, having regularly gigged around the Wakefield music scene for many years, featuring with local musicians and has even gigged with Nizlopi (The JCB Song) and supported people like Slade, Darius and Sam Lee.
His funk band “Shrood” have recently re-formed, where Ryan is the lead songwriter and frontman; he can also be seen featuring his harmonica and guitar with the extremely talented Ruby Macintosh.
