THINK Small Portfolio BEFORE Big In this episode of Join Up Dots, we dive deep into a challenge that so many new entrepreneurs face — the pressure to find and commit to one big business idea. Listener Hollie from Chelmsford reaches out, overwhelmed by the constant messages online telling her to go "all in" on a single venture. She's got ideas, passion, and motivation, but none of them feel like the “perfect” thing — and that hesitation has her stuck in overthinking mode. This episode offers a powerful reframe: what if the best path isn't to go all in on one big business, but instead to start small and create a portfolio of income streams? Rather than pouring your energy, time, and resources into something untested, why not spread your risk, learn as you go, and stack small wins into something meaningful? We share real-world stories of people who did just that — including one entrepreneur who lost thousands chasing a perfect product, and another who slowly built a collection of simple income streams that now give her full-time freedom. You'll hear about dog walking businesses, handmade candle sales, and simple local blogs that became powerful income channels — all without a big launch, investor backing, or quitting a day job. In fact, what you'll discover is that control, clarity, and confidence all come from movement — not from standing still while you wait for the lightning bolt of inspiration. This episode is a reminder that your journey doesn't have to start with a grand plan. It can start with a £10 win. A happy client. A blog post. A candle sale. As we work through Hollie's dilemma, we uncover the hidden power in doing many small things that excite you, instead of chasing one intimidating, "career-defining" idea. You'll learn how testing multiple income streams helps you develop real skills, identify your ideal customers, and discover what truly energises you. It's not just about making money — it's about building a life that feels like yours. So whether you're thinking of selling digital downloads, offering local services, creating content, or trying out creative products, this episode will open your eyes to how small ideas can grow into something incredible when given the space to evolve. You don't need to wait until you feel ready. You don't need to go big. You don't need anyone's permission. You just need to start — and let the dots join up from there. Share this episode with someone who needs to hear that building freedom doesn't require taking huge risks. Spread the message using #PortfolioPower and #JoinUpDots and encourage others to stop waiting and start creating their own economy. Don't forget to subscribe to the podcast and leave a review.

Wilhelmina – Mina – Smallman is an activist who campaigns for the safety of women and girls and police reform. She is a former teacher and priest who was the first woman of colour to be an archdeacon in the Church of England.In 2020 her daughters Bibaa and Nicole were murdered as they celebrated Bibaa's 46th birthday in Fryent Country Park. It later came to light that two policemen, who were guarding the crime scene, had posed for and posted selfies with Bibaa and Nicole's bodies in the background. They were later jailed for misconduct. When friends first reported her daughters missing the police didn't launch an official search for them and it was their loved ones who eventually found Bibaa and Nicole. Mina's anger at the failings of the Metropolitan Police, led her to start her fight for justice. In 2021 an Independent Office for Police Conduct (IOPC) report, highlighted the Met's failings and advised the force to apologise to Mina and her family.Mina was brought up in London. She was a drama teacher for over 20 years before training for the priesthood. She was ordained in 2006 and took up her first job as vicar at Christ Church on the Thames View estate in Barking. In 2013 she was appointed the first woman archdeacon of Southend in the Diocese of Chelmsford. She retired as an archdeacon in 2016.

What's the right age to give a child a mobile phone? How long should kids spend on screens each day? Why don't we need to feel as guilty about our children's phone use as we might think? Answering all these questions is the awesome neuroscientist Dean Burnett. He explains the difference between compulsion and addiction, and why he doesn't think Australia's plan to ban social media for under 16s is a good idea. We look at tricky issues like explicit content, cyberbullying, and the effect of staring at a screen on kids' eyesight - and find out what we can do about them. Dean tells us how long his own children spend on screens each day, and we are relieved. Along with giving us some tips on dealing with teens, Dean reveals how we can stave off the brain fog that comes with age. We end with some Scummy Mummy Confessions involving dirty pants, the Miami International Psychedelics Convention, and a packet of ham. And keep listening right to the end for some very strong language as we learn the Welsh term for "jellyfish".

The Bishop of Chelmsford, Dr Guli Francis-Dehqani, was in Jerusalem last week when the Israel-Hamas ceasefire deal was agreed. Shortly after returning from the Holy Land, she spoke to Francis Martin about the reaction to the deal on the ground; the prospects for long-term peace in the region; and more widely about the visit, which included meeting Layan Nasir, a young Anglican woman from Birzeit who was released in December, after eight months in “administrative detention”. “As a Christian and as a person of prayer, I have to continue to hope that people of peace, people who want to see reconciliation, people who believe in justice, will find a will and a way to work together eventually to lead to a peaceful solution,” she said. The interview was recorded on Sunday (19 January). Picture: Dr Francis-Dehqani with the Archbishop in Jerusalem, Dr Hosam Naoum.

Coni shares some fascinating facts about cervical mucus, and we learn why the gussets on our pants sometimes go a bit orangey.

What mistake do all would-be novelists make? What's it like to be nominated for the Booker prize? And what's the best drink to pair with a Greggs Steak Bake? Helping us answer all these questions is the brilliant novelist Charlotte Mendelson! We discuss Charlotte's latest book, Wife, plus her work as a creative writing teacher. She tells us what all her students have in common, reveals her top tips for finishing your novel, and shares the best piece of writing advice she was ever given. We also discuss the economics of being a writer, and accidentally have a serious debate about AI. Then it's time for relationship chat as we look at how people end up in bad partnerships, and why they stay. Charlotte talks about the pressure of being a poster family when you're a gay parent, and what it's like to have adult kids. Plus: book recommendations if you're going through a divorce, why Calpol syringes are better than turkey basters, and that time Charlotte saw Keir Starmer in a Gail's. Wife is out now, and it's a great read for anyone interested in breakups, jokes, lesbians and/or Australians. We are bringing our BRAND NEW SHOW, Hot Mess, to theatres all over the country in 2025!

Es sind die 1950er Jahre. Neville und June Bamber geht es gut. Was ihnen zum perfekten Glück fehlt: Kinder! Doch der Wunsch bleibt unerfüllt, und so adoptieren sie den Jungen Jeremy und das Mädchen Sheila. Was die Eltern zu diesem Zeitpunkt nicht ahnen: Sie haben sich das Unglück selbst ins Haus geholt. -- In dieser Episode BRITPOD CRIME nehmen uns Claus Beling und Alexander-Klaus Stecher mit ins Jahr 1985. Ein Notruf geht bei der Polizei ein. Es ist Jeremy Bamber, der sich Sorgen um seine Familie macht. Sein Vater Neville Bamber hätte ihn angerufen und gesagt, dass seine schizophrene Schwester Sheila mit einem Gewehr im Haus herumschießt. Als die Polizei auf der White House Farm in Chelmsford (Grafschaft Essex) eintrifft, finden sie 5 Leichen. Sheila, ihre beiden Kinder und ihre Eltern - alle tot! Jeremy Bamber hat seine komplette Familie in einer Nacht verloren und alles deutet darauf hin, dass seine Schwester Sheila zuerst die Familie und danach sich selbst erschossen hat. Das Umfeld von Jeremy Bamber beginnt daran zu zweifeln, denn Jeremys Verhalten passt nicht zu jemandem, der ein solche Tragödie erlebt hat. Auch die Cousins von Jeremy Bamber sind nicht zufrieden mit den Ermittlungen der Polizei. Also nehmen sie es selbst in die Hand und durchsuchen das Mordhaus. Sie stoßen auf einen Schalldämpfer mit Blutspuren. Wird dieses Detail die Ermittlungen in ein völlig neues Licht rücken und den Mörder entlarven? BRITPOD CRIME - Englands Mystery Crime Stories: Alexander-Klaus Stecher und Claus Beling präsentieren wahre Kriminalgeschichten, die Großbritannien in Angst und Schrecken versetzten. Ab sofort alle paar Wochen! -- Ein ALL EARS ON YOU Original Podcast.
