What do you do when at one time, you couldn't walk through Canal Street in Manchester without seeing or hearing your name?  Your face is painted everywhere Bars are named after you.  And then your name all but disappears and nobody really knows why.  You just want to stop everything, find a little cubby hole and take the batteries out.    This was my guest on this episode of Mojo Matters. And the fascinating story of a Manchester drag queen who nearly gave everything up but was determined to get her mojo back. I'm joined by the very brilliant Belinda Scandal who this year is celebrating 25 years in the drag business.  And who is also founder and presenter of Your Manchester TV – The number one channel that brings together the city and community of Manchester to talk.  Find out  How her career in drag began as a happy accident.  The tragedies and challenges she's overcome in life The Strong Northern Women who inspire her and have helped her keep going even when times are tough. 

Is any of this you?  You've always secretly known deep within you that you're destined for much bigger stuff? Maybe you want to make it to the top in your career or your industry? Perhaps you've harboured an ambition to have your own business and want to make it a reality? Maybe you want to get your business to a whole new level and achieve financial freedom? Or maybe it's some other big dream you have?  It's hard and frustrating at times isn't it? Knowing inside you're made for bigger stuff when there are people around you who laugh at you or discourage you. Maybe they call you a dreamer and you should make do with your lot.    My guest on this episode of mojo matters has always known inside him he's made for big stuff and he actually makes it happen. And I really admire that about him because even though I know he says people have wanted to deter him in the past, he just has this utter self belief and confidence and doesn't let the naysayers get in his way.  Up until he was in his late teens, Chris Taylor was destined to become a professional cricketer and then an injury killed his dream.  He had to two options. Wallow. Or keep making other big stuff happen.  With little prior experience and just inbuilt self belief and confidence, Chris has started and scaled several businesses. He's now having great success with his latest business venture. And he's still only 27 years old .

This episode is for you if you think life can be a bit of a twat at times and you want to take back control of it.  In 2018, Carolyn's world imploded. She had a high flying corporate career but had been forced out of a job she loved.  Her partner told her their relationship was over. Within the space of 10 days, she lost her job, her home, her relationship and the ready-made family that had filled the void left by her inability to conceive her own children.  A brush with suicide followed.  She realised she'd lived a life of shame and blame.  This was a catalyst to go on her own journey with self discovery to become a happier, more confident, self-compassionate and unapologetic version of herself.  In this episode, Carolyn shares her story, redefines what it means to be selfish and gives you her 'How to process' to 'de-twat your life'. Carolyn is author of ‘All The Twats I Met Along The Way' and its upcoming sequel, ‘De-Twat Your Life!' as well as the self-help book, ‘Redefining SELFISH. No Guilt. No Regrets'.  Connect with Carolyn: www.carolynhobdey.co.uk  Connect with me, Jo Britton on Instagram @jobritton.mojo for daily motivation and mojo fuelling tips and techniques. 

The one about courage, strength and resilience  As human beings we have a remarkable capacity to be courageous, strong and resilient.   For this episode to kick start a new series of Mojo Matters, I'm flying solo because there's one every day person that I wish I could interview right now and but I can't as she's no longer with us. She is one of the people I truly admire.  So I'm going share parts of her story – the parts I know about – in a hope that it provides some inspiration.  And dedicate this episode to her. In her honour and memory.   Maria Durejko, my Bapcha, my late Ukrainian grandmother. And dedicate it to the people of Ukraine in their most difficult hours. This episode was recorded on day 5 of Putin's invasion of Ukraine. Because this episode is about strength, courage and resilience.  And how we can all find this within us when faced with the most challenging of times.   Life doesn't come with a map.  And everyone will experience twists and turns, from everyday challenges to traumatic events with more lasting impact. As human beings – in part thanks to resilience – we are generally able to adapt well over time to life-changing situations and stressful situations.

In this episode I'm talking with Professor Damian Hughes. Damian is co-host of the chart topping and high acclaimed High Performance Podcast, where he's interviewed elite performers from business, sport and the arts, exploring the psychology behind sustained high performance.  He's author of 8 best selling business books (I've read pretty much all of them), an international speaker who combines his practical and academic background within sport, organisational development and change psychology to help organisations and teams create high performance cultures.  He's professor of organisational change and psychology at Manchester Metropolitan University  We talk about high performance so that you can learn lessons and techniques that you can apply to your own life and to your business – and without holding back and burning yourself out . - What is high performance? Is it something you can learn? - Talent - what it is and how you can discover it within you - Common behaviours of high performers and how they sustain it  - The common mindset of high performers - How not to be a peak idiot  - The non negotiable behaviours of high performers - What drives consistency and how to be consistent - What makes a high performing individual, team and organisation? - Tips on sustaining high performance  - Why the hustle and grind is not going to help you - Resilience and two things you can do to improve it  Connect with Damian  https://liquidthinker.com/ Listen to the High Performance Podcast  https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/the-high-performance-podcast/id1500444735 Start unlocking high performance and your potential with the Limitless Challenge  https://bit.ly/Limitless5daychallenge Be part of a community of high performers unlocking their Limitless potential https://bit.ly/limitlesscircle

I'm joined on this episode by the legend that is Janet Murry – a content marketing expert, podcaster and key note speaker around the world who has built a six figure business using the strategies she teaches to others to help them build online audiences.  But we're not talking content marketing particularly on the show.  I wanted to talk to Janet because quite frankly she's a big inspiration.  What she probably wasn't aware of was that it was Janet who helped me take one of my first steps to innovate my business when the pandemic hit because I listened to her brilliant podcast – it was an episode about how to grow your Instagram account it was this that helped me get on Instagram and start innovating my business.  And it was also an email that she sent which really helped me re-frame things and take action because I'd been struggling as a business owner at the time the pandemic hit – I'd lost all of my business and also I felt like it would be an inappropriate time to sell. But Janet's email came at the right time and helped me see this differently as she was talking about not being embarrassed about this.  But people out there might think that this success comes easy – but it's not all been plain sailing for Janet and I know for a fact that she works incredibly hard. And along the way there have been challenges.   In this episode we talk about  - How she went from journalist in the national press to successful business owner - How does she juggle running a really busy business with being a mum and how does she stay productive and motivated? - How to be more courageous and confident  - Insights into Janet's recent ADHD diagnosis, how it typically presents in women and how this can be both a curse and a blessing plus strategies she puts in place which she says gives her ways to cope  Connect with Janet: https://www.instagram.com/janmurrayuk/ https://www.janetmurray.co.uk/ Janet references Dr Ned Hallowell Book ADHD 2.0  https://drhallowell.com/read/books-by-ned/ Listen to Janet's Podcast Courageous Content  https://open.spotify.com/episode/6DKF7fvFmguKW12PNg3GBn?si=9f3140e2dccd4b3d https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/why-i-trolled-my-troll-and-dont-regret-a-thing/id1569783857?i=1000527084498 Connect with Jo Britton https://www.instagram.com/jobritton.mojo/ Receive my e-newsletter - weekly insights to put into action from the world of neuroscience to improve your personal performance without holding back and burning out email my jo@pacedevelopment.co.uk

In this episode we're talking about accountability and how it's one of your secret success weapons. And how by creating habits, being consistent and being accountable you can put yourself in the best position to succeed.  So it's fitting that I'm joined by Accountability Coach Dan Bennett who amongst his work, has a passion and focus for health and fitness. And we all know of the benefits of a healthy diet and lifestyle and how much exercise benefits your mojo. Dan is founder of The Accountability Academy which helps people to achieve their health and fitness goals and sustain them.  He's also my Mojo Membership Community's resident health and fitness expert.  

In this episode, I talk to one of my incredible members of my Mojo Community which is full of inspirational women who are believing in themselves more and so are achieving all the things they so deserve.  I'm with Helen Crespo and she shares how when she started to win her inner game, she started to make big stuff happen in her life.  By day Helen is a London based Real Estate Project manager for a leading global company and all of the rest of the time she's a proud Network Marketing professional.    We discuss how she went from lacking confidence and not believing in herself to making big stuff happen – promotion after promotion, growing a business – earning more and achieving more.  She puts this down to mastering her inner game and a number of other things which she'll be sharing with us on the show. Her progress has been insane!   She says 2020 was a life changing year for many and for Helen she made drastic changes by putting herself first,  investing in herself and taking a leap of faith.   She dreams big and achieves big but what she's learnt over the last year has helped her achieve even bigger and faster than she could have imagined and her mission is now to help others build their confidence, embark on the most exciting journey of personal growth and help them generate a recurring residual income in the process!

In this episode I talk to Katie McCann a family lawyer and barrister because as we've been navigating through this pandemic, it's been affecting many of our core relationships.  And the  Charity Citizen's Advice has been reporting spikes in searches for online advice on ending a relationship plus many law firms have been reporting over a 100% increase in enquiries over the last 6-10 months.  There's also been a similar pattern around the world – particularly in countries where there's been some of the strictest lockdowns such as China.  Katie is founder of family law firm Lowry Legal. She specialises in helping separating couples on their journey from separation to the next phase of their lives.  She believes in treating her clients as whole people and understands that their divorce is only one phase in their lives. Helping clients emerge on the other side as stronger people is Katie's mission.  And she is turning the perception of the legal profession on its head because she believes that the legal profession can be stuffy and lawyers unapproachable.  This is certainly not the case with Katie.  So on this episode of mojo matters we explore family matters particularly in light of the impact that the pandemic has been having and get some practical guidance from Katie on what to do if you're in a challenging and emotional family situation right now.  And also Katie is massive inspiration in other ways too because Katie has a condition called Ehlers Danlos Syndrome, which affects her muscles, joints and ligaments.  She promised herself long ago that she would not let this beat her and sought to build up her strength as much as she could with resistance training!  This turned into a love of the body building sport, and she is currently on course to competing in her first bikini show in 2022.   We talk about the strategies Katie has for living with this condition. 

We're talking maximising your potential by being true to yourself without burning yourself out particularly if you work in a highly pressurised environment or role. We'll be taking lessons  Steve Guest, Author of 'Top Biller - The life of a recruiter.'  Steve is someone who has been extremely successful in an industry which is notoriously tough -  the recruitment industry – an industry in which it's extremely competitive and in which it's generally been accepted that you need to be robust and really persistent.  It's an industry where you need excellent communication skills, be really target driven, be good at multi-tasking, have lots of confidence, have strong sales skills.   And not everyone cuts it. It's so easy to really lose your mojo and burn out in the process when you're working in highly pressured environments.  Steve had spent 14 years recruiting top talent in the construction and property industry working for large global recognised recruitment brands as well as growing smaller recruitment businesses.  He's a high performer and achiever always pushing boundaries, inspiring change, innovation and growth. But Steve will say he doesn't fit the typical mould of a recruiter in his industry.  To find your edge and maximise your performance follow Jo Brittonhttps://www.instagram.com/jobritton.mojo/To connect with Steve Guest, follow https://www.instagram.com/steveguest/

In this episode we talk affirmations. Affirmations are those things that people take the mickey out of don’t they? Stand in front of the mirror. Chest pumped. Roar! I’m a tiger!  So do they really work? According to my amazing guest Carla Collins, they do. They’ve been such a powerful mojo fuelling tool that she now has a brilliant business Love up Love you which produces the most amazing scented affirmation candles – I say this with 100% certainty because I have Carla’s wonderful affirmation candles and as someone who has an obsession with candles, I can honestly say they’re the best I’ve ever bought.  Now Carla says she was inspired to create the business following her own journey of self-discovery which has taken her from Bondi Beach to London. And along the way she has discovered how positive affirmations lead to self-acceptance, self love and ultimately greater joy in life.  Because Carla says she got off to a bit of a rocky start in life and that family dynamics meant that home for her as a child didn’t feel like a particularly safe or nurturing place to be. She was also born with a physical disability that made her an easy target for bullies and she felt different, unsure of herself and not worthy of her place in the world. A great episode to harness the power of affirmations and change your life. Follow Carla Collins on Instagram @loveup_loveyouFollow Jo Britton on Instagrame @jobritton.mojoBelieve and Achieve - become a mojo member http:/bit.ly/mojo2021

In this episode I talk to business coach Adam Kawalec about the difference between ambition versus enthusiasm.  And how realising the difference between the two was a turning point for Adam, transforming him, he says, from being an overweight, overworked and overstressed people pleasing overachiever into a present, self-empowered happy person with healthy habits and relationships.   Adam had successful corporate career but an epiphany moment was the catalyst for a life switch for him. He shares what happened, the challenges he overcame and the tools and techniques he's used to help him create a new and happy healthy life and businessFollow Adam Kawalec on Instagram @adamkawalec.ig Follow Jo Britton on Instagram @jobritton.mojoLink to Mojo Membership http://bit.ly/mojo2021

I’m joined by Emma Deaker and we talk about the  power of journaling for a clearer, happier and more productive life. Now, some people (and I include myself in this some time back), may think – well journaling what’s all that about? That’s a bit soft and fluffy isn’t it? But it’s no coincidence that this mojo fuelling tool has so much power that it can’t be a coincidence that Emma runs several successful businesses including in the property sector.  And journaling has been something that has enabled Emma to transition from the corporate to business owner world.  She says she’s always been a fan of a list and throughout her life has loved writing stuff down. Even writing things on her to do list that she’d already done just so she could cross it off… Now Em thinks that may sound crazy but actually there’s some really good evidence from the world of neuroscience and neurobiology of the power of ticking stuff off your list as means of sustaining your motivation and getting a shot of the reward chemical dopamine.  So back to Emma and her journaling, she says when she went from employed to self-employed she felt lost with no routine or structure and journaled her way out of it and it was a game changer.  Little did she know that was November 2019 and covid and lockdown was around the corner with people working from home and experiencing huge routine changes.  And so she felt she had an obligation to print her journal and share it with others to help them.   And it’s been helping so many people since. You can connect with Emma on Instagram @emmadeaker and find her Em-powered Journal.You can connect with me on Instagram @jobritton.mojo or join my Mojo Membership http://bit.ly/mojo2021

The one with Michael Cloonan and how his gift of ADHD has enabled his success as an entrepreneur.  Michael’s been an entrepreneur since the age of 16. He also has ADHD but this is only something he’s recently had the diagnosis for.     For years, he didn’t understand how he could be so intense about his ventures yet at the same time get equally distracted, depressed and lost in his own thoughts. He says it was like swinging on a pendulum.    The same force that was taking him up in life was also pulling him straight back down. Unaware of what was going on he just carried on until he had a break down and pretty much lost everything.    But he began to learn more about ADHD and now coaches those who are easily distracted.    On this episode Michael shares his story about how he discovered he has ADHD, the challenges but also the gifts it brings.   We talk about how are brains are wired differently.  And he shares some techniques for those who may be easily distracted. 

The one with Lisa Wimberger and how being struck by lightning on her 15th birthday profoundly shaped her life.  Because for the years to follow she experienced seizures that would 'take her out'.  Her heart would stop, her brain would shut off and she would experience cyanosis (when you turn blue).   Lisa says her body was in effect 'playing dead.' She was told there was nothing that could be done about her seizures and her flatlining. But she was given a name for this and a cause - stress.   Not accepting nothing could be done, and saying that she'd grown up rising to overcome anyone who told her she couldn't do something, she dedicated herself to researching neuroscience and the practice of self-directed neuroplasticity.  And she combined this with her meditation practice.  This led her to create the truly unique practice of Neurosculpting® which she used to heal herself.  She's never had a seizure since.  It's now a practice that has been helping so many people -  from those in law enforcement through to leaders in organisations - to release the grip of stress, trauma and negative thought patterns. And is helping others to create the beliefs and stories which inspire us to achieve what we want and deserve in our daily lives.  This episode is timed for the launch of Neurosculpting® in the UK, as I become the UK's first certified Neurosculpting® facilitator to help people through and recover from the stress of the pandemic.  And to enable you to live a mojo filled life with greater health, wealth and happiness.  In this episode Lisa shares her remarkable story, the neuroscience,  how Neurosculpting® works and how it can be applied to help you navigate daily life with less stress, overwhelm and with more confidence. 

The one with the inspiring Cody Gapare - inventor, innovator, entrepreneur and cancer survivor, she is owner and founder of global and multi-award winner business C-Lash.  Cody's life long dream was to become a lawyer and she didn't think it was possible. But she landed a university place and was excited for her interview.   That's where the rest of her remarkable story of strength, resilience and determination starts as she finds herself navigating one of life's biggest challenges.  Cody shares her story and the set backs and challenges she's faced together with the opportunities she has created both personally and with her business.   And she explains how she just keeps going no matter what. 

The one with Olympic Swimmer Fran Halsall. In this episode I talk to former Olympic Swimmer, World, Commonwealth and European Champion who shares her stories and learnings from sport to inspire others to achieve their goals.  Fran shares what it takes to get to the top of your field and achieve massive goals plus how to keep motivated on the days you're not feeling it.    We also explore what happens and how you bounce back when you don't achieve your big dream and you lose your identity and sense of purpose - and how to come back from that.  With tonnes of inspiration and transferrable advice from the world of sport to your personal, professional and business life.  Follow Fran Halsall on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/francescahalsall/  or connect with her on LinkedIn  More ways to achieve your goals and dreams with Mojo Membership at http://bit.ly/mojo2021

Episode 16. The one with Farah Nanji - entrepreneur, DJ, journalist and TEDx speaker and how she turned her challenges with dyspraxia into a gift of innovation and entrepreneurialism in two industries which rely heavily on motor coordination; music and motorsport.  As a DJ and music producer she has played for some of the biggest brands around the world, from the United Nations to Pacha Destino in Ibiza and many of her projects have featured on Channel 4, RTL and the BBC. She currently runs Regents Racing; a company that explores how Formula 1 can transform performance for senior leaders.

This is the one where it's Betwixmas, chrimbo limbo whatever you might call it - that time between Christmas and New Year - you’ve no clue what day of the week it is, you’re maybe still eating left overs and chocolate for breakfast Maybe you’re back at work, maybe you’ve been endlessly flicking through Netflix or perhaps you’re feeling like you've not much motivation to do anything. And even on a normal year without all of these restrictions and tiers, this period can feel like a bit of a slump can’t it?   So this episode maybe just gives you a bit of something to think about and be ok about how you may be feeling at the moment.  Because I’ve been catching up with people over the last couple of days, and a common theme in conversation has come up.  The events of 2020 have been making them reflect even more than usual about life, work, business, family, health and so on.     And some have told me that they’re feeling like they’re in a bit of no-man’s land and a bit directionless, they want to make changes to their life but they don't know what kind.  And some said they're feeling a built guilty about not feeling grateful for what they have or are dreading the New Year. So in this episode, I just want to address these points in case you relate to any of these too and share with you some stuff that may help.
