They were already at the top of their sport. Then they removed the safety net.The Athertons had spent decades becoming one of mountain biking's most successful families.But rather than simply continuing with the security of a global bike sponsor, they took an enormous risk: build their own.Atherton Bikes launched in 2019. They developed and raced their own 3D-printed bikes, bought a mountain and forest to create their own bike park — and ultimately put a World Champion on a British-built Atherton bike.In this Founder Thursday Classic, Rachel Atherton, Dan Atherton and Atherton Bikes CEO Dan Brown talk about obsession, resilience, calculated risk and why sometimes success requires committing everything.The lesson?There comes a point where you can't make the outcome certain.You calculate the risk.You commit.And you Screw It Just DO It.

Sometimes the deepest wounds are the ones no one else can see. In this heartfelt conversation, grief and resilience coach Lee Atherton shares how years of unresolved trauma, family loss, and PTSD led her to one of the darkest periods of her life—and how a remarkable service dog named Shadow became part of her journey back to hope. Together, we also explore the everyday losses many women carry quietly and what genuine healing can look like. In this episode: Why grief isn't limited to losing a loved one The hidden impact of cumulative losses throughout life Why so many women struggle to ask for help after years of caring for others How service dogs support people living with PTSD Practical ways to build resilience before life becomes overwhelming Finding hope, connection and purpose after trauma Healing doesn't erase what we've lived through—but it can help us carry those experiences with greater compassion, strength, and hope.

Send us Fan MailThis episode unpacks what "probable CTE" actually means — where the term comes from, what the science can and can't currently tell us, and why a single case (former Socceroos captain Paul Wade) has reignited debate about diagnosing a disease that's only ever been confirmed after death.

I'm Gareth VK4GED, and for QNEWS I'm standing outside the Disaster Coordination Centre in Atherton here in far north Queensland. This is where disaster specialists from Tablelands Regional Council meet when there are significant weather or other disruptive events; And it's from here that Radio Amateurs will be called to help in times of community need and where they'll be setting up a radio base at short notice. It's also where the Tablelands Radio & Electronics Club meet every month to discuss and train on matters of communications resilience. I've singled out the Tablelands Club and Council because they have one of the best emergency comms relationships in Queensland. If you have a look at the Tablelands Council's website, you will find pages dedicated to radio communication and the involvement of the Tablelands Club. Search online for "Tablelands resilient communications sub-plan" or click on this link: trc.qld.gov.au/download/resilient-communications-subplan/ The takeaway from this is that legislation makes each Queensland Council responsible for its own area's disaster response. So, if you're a Queensland Radio Amateur and you want to contribute as a communications volunteer in YOUR Council area: Make yourself known to your Mayor, Deputy Mayor and Disaster Coordinator, because they will be the ones to talk to before and during an event; Ask to be involved in your Council's disaster communication exercises and let them know your station's capability, readiness and availability. It's Sunday 12 July; we're starting to come out of the depths of winter, and the one thing that we can predict is that there will be weather today. Hi - I'm John VK4JPM, Secretary of the Darling Downs Radio Club, and it might be worth having a pen ready just in case the interweb and phone network doesn't work. This has not been a good week for technology. Let's start with tomorrow night, which would be Monday 13 July, and in this case the 13th is unlucky for nobody. Our Monthly meeting for July features Contesting, which is Amateur Radio incarnated as a sport. In five weeks the Remembrance Day Contest will be with us, and in just over 24 hours Di Main VK4DI will be along to tell you how to win the RD. As one of Australia's foremost Contesters, Di has had a go at pretty much all Contests on all bands, and under all conditions. She is one of our hobby's Elmers - that's a person who acts as a recognised mentor to help other Hams get started and progress. Di has already mentored the Darling Downs Club, by providing a bit of coaching that enabled our club to take out our category in the John Moyle Contest last March. The RD Contest is looming, and the club has a chance. Di's presence is perfectly timed to provide some support, and your presence is warmly requested to provide some support in return. We're meeting at 1900 at the Guide Hut in Harristown, with all details on the website and also pasted into the text edition of this QNEWS, available from your friendly WIA website. Tea, coffee and timtams, and the hut is going to be comfy warm. We will have an impressive amount of gear to sell, as more of the club's stash has been moved to the hut. Our vice-president Sam VK4SAM has been very busy organising a sale, and in recognition we're having the club's first SAMFest at the same time as the club meeting. Monday 13 July from 1800 for access to the gear. The club's annual general meeting will be held at the Guide Hut at 1800 on Thursday 30 July. Note the time, date and location: all different from last year! The AGM packet will go our shortly, and it's mostly standard business. We will be electing a vice-president, treasurer and two committee members. If you're interested in standing for Committee, the information on how to nominate will be in the AGM packet.

In this episode of Speaking Business Podcast, I'm joined by Alex Atherton, an ex-secondary school head teacher, keynote speaker, author of The Snowflake Myth, and a winner at the 2025 Speaker Awards. Alex shares how he moved from running schools to building a speaking business, and why hearing young people dismissed as "snowflakes" pushed him to create a keynote that challenges lazy stereotypes about Gen Z. We talk about the disconnect between older leaders and younger professionals, why Gen Z's experience of education, technology, work and independence is so different from previous generations, and what leaders need to understand if they want to attract, retain and develop young talent. Alex also gives a very honest look behind the scenes of his speaking business. He shares what it felt like to go from the top of one profession to ground zero in another, how he developed his keynote slowly through research, blogs and focus groups, and why staying current is essential if you want to be seen as an authority. We also discuss how he gets booked, the role bureaus have played in his business, how LinkedIn and referrals contribute to his enquiries, and why knowing your numbers matters if you are serious about growing as a speaker. This is a fascinating episode for anyone who speaks on leadership, generations, workplace culture or change, and for any speaker building a business around a strong, timely and relevant idea.

If you've ever wondered how a dying loved one's request could become a calling, episode 440 of Grief and Happiness is for you. Ceramic artist Rae Delai shares how a promise to her dying aunt led her to leave nursing and open White Lily Urns, crafting memorial pieces — including a teapot urn for a young woman lost to anorexia and a reef urn that becomes part of the ocean.In This Episode, You Will Learn:(00:55) Rae's path from 30 years in nursing to becoming a full-time ceramic artist(01:27) How her dying aunt's request for an urn led to White Lily Urns(08:30) Why Australian culture — and even most potters — avoid making urns(13:54) The meditative discipline of clay: why you can't create while angry(14:33) How clients find Rae's work and why most of her urns ship overseas(16:38) The personal stories behind her urns, including a dragon urn for a teen who died by suicide(19:00) Designing a custom teapot urn for a young woman who died of anorexia(22:26) Why ceramics are like crystals — and the surprises every kiln firing brings(24:28) How grieving clients choose an urn in the moment, without overthinking it(25:40) The reef-friendly urn Rae created for her own grief, built to become part of a coral reefRae Delai is the ceramic artist behind White Lily Urns, a memorial pottery studio in Atherton, Far North Queensland, Australia. After 30 years as a nurse in intensive care, midwifery, and palliative care, she took up pottery as a creative outlet — and when her dying aunt asked her to make an urn for her ashes, Rae found few handmade options existed in Australia. That gap led her to leave nursing for a full-time business making custom urns, capturing each loved one's story with input from families. She now sells through her website and Etsy as White Lily Urns, shipping worldwide.On the episode, Rae drew on her nursing background and her craft to discuss death, grief, and the comfort of creating something meaningful from loss. She described Australians' general discomfort with death, even among potters, and how nursing taught her to sit with grieving families without absorbing their pain. She shared personal projects: a teapot urn for a young woman who died of anorexia, a dragon-faced urn for a teen who died by suicide, and a reef urn made for her own grief that dissolves into the ocean. She closed on the centeredness clay demands and the realities of running her business alone.Connect with Rae Delai:WebsiteLinkedInInstagramFacebookYouTubeXPinterestLet's Connect: WebsiteLinkedInFacebookInstagramTwitterPinterestThe Grief and Happiness AllianceBook: Emily Thiroux Threatt - Loving and Living Your Way Through Grief Hosted on Acast.

Send us Fan MailQuick recapLaurieAnn interviewed Lee Atherton, founder of Phoenix Rising and a psychiatric service dog advocate, for her podcast "Bleep Bulimia." Lee shared her personal journey with bulimia and how her service dog Shadow helped her through depression and anxiety after losing her brother to a drug overdose. They discussed the potential for training service dogs to assist people with bulimia, including alerting others when someone is engaging in harmful behaviors and providing comfort during recovery. Lee explained her foundation's mission to make psychiatric service dogs more accessible to those who need them, particularly highlighting the high cost of fully trained service dogs at approximately $45,000. The conversation also touched on Lee's upcoming book project collecting service dog stories and various ways listeners can support Phoenix Rising, including financial donations and social media assistance.My words are that she is so delightful and so transparent.  Lee Atherton shared great information about not only the service dogs, she shared about her own struggles with bulimia.  Thank you, Lee.To reach Lee, go to https://phoenixrising-sdsl.com/  ❤️Support the show

Some kinds of healing don't show up in books or productivity apps. They show up in a pair of eyes at the foot of your bed in the middle of the night, in a paw on your leg when your chest gets tight, in the quiet act of being known by something that doesn't need you to explain yourself. Avik sits down with Lee Atherton, founder of Phoenix Rising SDSL, to talk about her psychiatric service dog Shadow, the hidden disabilities so many people carry behind a calm exterior, and the slow, honest work of rebuilding a life after trauma. A grounded, deeply human conversation about asking for help when help doesn't look the way you expected. About the Guest: Lee Atherton is a clergy person, coach, speaker, and international best-selling author. She is the founder of Phoenix Rising SDSL, a foundation dedicated to placing psychiatric service dogs with people living with PTSD and mental health disabilities. Her work draws from her own lived experience with Shadow, the service dog who helped her return to her life and her work. Key Takeaways: Hidden disabilities are real. People can look fine from the outside while carrying severe PTSD, anxiety, or panic on the inside. Psychiatric service dogs do specific, trained work: interrupting night terrors, sensing rising anxiety, providing tactile grounding, and helping people re-enter spaces that had become too overwhelming to navigate alone. Naming what happened, even years later, is often heavier than the original event. Honesty is its own kind of brave. Family is not always the place trauma gets witnessed or believed. Building support outside the original system is sometimes the only way forward. Healing is not a straight line. Lee describes it as having come through, not having overcome. The hard days still arrive, and that is part of being human. The bravest thing a person can do is stay open to the form that support takes when it actually arrives.

Tony Atherton knows Mojack! . . . YOU DON'T KNOW MOJACK is a podcast dedicated to exploring the entire SST catalogue, in order, from start to finish. During the podcast we will discuss all the releases that are part of our core DNA, as well as many lesser-known releases that deserve a second chance, or releases that we are discovering for the very first time (we actually don't know Mojack!). First and foremost we are fans, and acknowledge that we are not perfect and don't know everything – sometimes the discussion is more about a time, place, feeling, personal experience or random tangents, and less about the facts (but we will try to get to the facts too).

In this episode, Matt tells the story of a rather standard haunted house. However, the tale of how the ghosts came to be there involves what amounts to sitcom tropes, a barrel of rum, and the specters of iconic eras in San Francisco's history.

In this episode, Jack and Brian discuss the ongoing conflict with Iran, drawing parallels to the aftermath of World War One.

Jack shares his thoughts on President Trump's approach, questioning the effectiveness of charging tolls to Iran for using international waters. The conversation also touches on the role of leadership, comparing Trump's style to that of George H.W. Bush, and the need for a coalition of willing nations to address the situation.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The AEC industry is overdue for an upgrade. My guest Hacia Atherton explains why continuing to operate on a model rooted in the industrial revolution is undermining our firms, our culture, and our value — especially for women. Learn what it's really costing to operate inside a system that was never designed for the complexity of today's work. Effective leaders know that everyone at every experience level has value to add. They also know that they don't know everything We need to switch from a competitive model to a co-creative model where every stakeholder has a role in informing and improving culture and process. Most DEI programs get is wrong by not focusing on the pillars of psychological well being are autonomy, confidence and sense of belonging. Every interaction should be seen as a value exchange where the power dynamics are level. Reframe failures to find the growth opportunity. Trying to prove yourself or perform only erodes trust and authenticity When a firm is clear on its values, you can have a different conversation with clients about your worth.

David Golay shares why he hasn't jived with any of the eMTBs he's ridden so far, and if the new light-assist bikes from Orbea and Norco he's been spending time on might have a chance of changing his mind. Simon, on the other hand, is a big fan of eMTBs, regardless of whether they have a full-power or light-assist drive system, and has a couple of full-power beauties from Pivot and Norco to talk about. And to avoid a whole episode on bikes with motors, they throw the Atherton A.150.M in the mix, too.Note: We Want to Hear From You!Please let us know if there's a topic you'd like us to cover or a guest you'd like us to have on Bikes and Big Ideas.

For decades, leadership was judged by outputs such as profit, speed, and results. But the real competitive advantage now lies beneath the surface of your P&L: Your culture, trust, and psychology driving every decision, including cybersecurity. Hacia Atherton, the author of The Billion Dollar Blind$pot, joins Business Security Weekly to discuss the invisible human costs — fear, burnout, disengagement — quietly draining performance. She will discuss the silent costs of outdated leadership and gives you a playbook to fix them for good, including: Self Leadership Psychological Success with Emotional Mastery Co-designing a Culture to Thrive Leaders need to turn emotional intelligence into a measurable business strategy. Because emotional intelligence isn't optional anymore, it's operational.
