In this episode, Toby Mildon joins us to talk about how diversity and inclusion can create a stronger workplace About Toby: Toby Mildon is a Diversity and inclusion Architect who is passionate about creating diverse workplaces and cultures that are inclusive. He has helped some of the UK's largest companies, including the BBC, Deloitte, Sony, and HarperCollins Publishing, improve staff retention, brand innovation, productivity, and performance. Toby's lifelong passion for Diversity and Inclusion stems from his personal and professional experiences with inequality, and his belief that building a culture of inclusive growth is essential for organizational success. Toby's Inclusive Growth Culture Program helps businesses implement real change and avoid shallow and superficial diversity initiatives. If a company has more than 250 employees, or is intending to grow to this size, Toby is the right person to help drive the business forward and achieve new heights. He speaks passionately about how moving beyond superficial diversity initiatives and building a culture of inclusive growth is essential. It addresses the underlying issues of inequality and creates a sustainable framework for continued growth and success. Toby's book, Inclusive Growth: Future-proof your business by creating a diverse workplace, provides a practical framework that enables you to deliver a sustainable, diverse and inclusive workplace that allows your organisation to grow. The book helps you understand how to strategically align diversity and inclusion to organisational growth, change the culture and motivate senior leaders to ‘walk the talk' for inclusivity, design and implement a sustainable inclusivity infrastructure, work as a whole organisation rather than in HR isolation, and celebrate your inclusivity to become an employer of choice in your industry. According to Hatem El-Hady, MD The Aspen Institute, "Toby demonstrated distinguished leadership and project/change management and stellar consulting skills. I wish him well as he continues to advance his career, and would be happy to serve as a reference to him as and when required." Toby's passion for diversity and inclusion, combined with his expertise and experience, make him an ideal speaker for any conference event focused on diversity, inclusion, leadership, HR heads, employee retention, employee engagement, employer branding, equality, and strategy.

Tom Paladino  is a Scalar Energy Researcher with over 25 years of experience developing healing techniques designed to help people all over the world to recover from pathogenic infection and experience true health and wellness.The story begins back in Tom's undergraduate days when he became inspired by his research into the work of various scientists. Exploring the discoveries and theories of Hieronymus, Moray, Priore, and Nikola Tesla, he was intrigued by the existence of an energy that is not part the electromagnetic spectrum. Taking this as his inspiration, he dedicated himself to a course of independent study in order to better understand the possibilities of this unique energy with the ultimate aim of successfully harnessing it. Tom realized that the scalar energy he was studying has been known to many cultures throughout the ages; it may be referred to as prana, chi, radiant energy, zero-point energy, qi, orgone or eloptic energy. Encouraged by the timeless, all- pervading nature of this fundamental energy source, and after years of experimentation and modification, Tom Paladino developed a unique healing technique using scalar energy called Scalar Light that appears to have the ability to transmute pathogens quickly and painlessly.This technique uses photographs of people who are seeking relief from the symptoms of pathogenic diseases. Tom Paladino's Scalar Light invention uses a remote passive light energy to influence the human bio field. The transmutation process shows promise in disassembling the agents of diseaseThe Scalar Light Instrument operates at the quantum level and is designed specifically to disassemble pathogens such as viruses, bacteria, parasites, protozoans, amoebas, and prions; appearing to eliminate the causative agent of disease. Once the causative agent of a pathogen disease has been eliminated, the symptoms associated with that infection decrease or disappear altogether. There are a number of healing programs, each designed to target different sources of illness. The Pathogen Cleanse healing program seeks to disassemble over 400,000 pathogens for both humans and animals. The Nutrient Therapy program is designed to deliver 347 essential nutrients to living cells. The Bio Energy Balance program harmonizes the body of the person or animal receiving the healing. These programs are continually being developed and new exciting healing possibilities are emerging all the time.Connect with Tom: https://www.twitter.com/tompaladino https://www.youtube.com/user/ TomPaladinoScalar Connect with Devon/ the showhttps://linktr.ee/wheelwithitpod --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/wheelwithit/message
