In this episode I was delighted to have a human conversation with the brilliant Loz Jones. I was lucky enough to work with him about 4 years ago in a digital marketing agency and we met again for coffee - just before the lockdown. It was amazing to catch up and discover so much more about him than I knew. Loz is a talented artist, designer and musician with over 20 years experience, 15 of those in video and motion graphics, plus a lifetime of writing and producing music. We chat about... 🌟His new business - Creative Sound & Vision 🌟His love of music and when it started 🌟His journey and discovery that he had bipolar disorder 🌟A real account of how we can be better educated about the disorder 🌟The amazing music that he wrote during is journey His album is called 'Carrot Shaped Stick' and is about aspiration, disconnection, desperation, love and resurrection. The metaphor for the use of a combination of reward and punishment to induce a desired behaviour. Loz wrote, sang and produced the whole album and 50% of the royalties he earns from sales of the album will go to MIND, the mental health charity. This human conversation was really touching and I believe many lessons can be learnt from it. One of the most interesting and creative people I know and he has had one hell of a journey, but look how far he has come - inspiring. Here are the links to connect with Loz and of course for you to buy his brilliant album 'Carrot Shaped Stick' Work: http://www.lozjones.com/creative.html Album: https://ditto.fm/carrot-shaped-stick Music: http://www.lozjones.com Grab a cuppa and enjoy!

It's not often you get to have a conversation with a world record holder, but there is a whole lot more to Kevin Gaskell that makes him a truly inspirational person. As CEO of successful world class brands - Porsche, Lamborghini, and BMW , and as a serial entrepreneur who has built international companies from ‘a good idea’, Kevin has created over £3 billion in shareholder value – and yet has still found time to climb the world’s highest mountains, walk to both North and South Poles, compete in international sport and play in a rock band - and did I mention his world record from rowing across the Atlantic. On this epic achievement he said, “We have crossed the ocean and we all came out of it still friends. That was our main aim. I am very privileged to have been part of that. I feel incredibly fortunate”. Kevin and his Atlantic rowing team are now World Record holders for the fastest row across the Atlantic in a 5 man boat. The epic journey, which took 35 days 19 hours and 50 minutes, raised more than £100k for the Plastic Soup Foundation, a charity that fights against the build up of plastics in oceans. In this podcast we get to know more about the experiences he has had and he leaves us in no doubt that if we 'Dare to dream' we can do anything. As he says ordinary people can do extraordinary things. His book is 'Inspired Leadership and you can get it here - https://amzn.to/3h3Mozc Well worth a listen if you ever thought you can't do something. Grab a couple of cuppas for this one - it's well worth the listen!

To celebrate my 60th podcast episode I have recorded my latest blog which seemed really apt to celebrate reaching 60 episodes of podcast making!

The first of my solo sessions and I'm exploring 'comparisonitus'! It's crippling, will block you, will challenge your inner confidence, and really doesn't serve you! So why do we do it and how can we ensure we don't let it do all of the above to us?! This podcast is my food for thought and I hope you enjoy. Kettle on!
