Here's the rational for Inclusive Leadership - people are the backbone of organisational effectiveness. Scientific research shows that our hard-wired survival instincts can hinder our ability to lead and collaborate effectively in teams. By becoming aware of these instincts in ourselves and others, we can help each other succeed and perform better.

Alex advocates for leaders to adapt their styles to effectively engage all team members.Practical steps for improving leadershipAlex provides specific recommendations for leaders to improve in the next 100 days, including simplifying communication, actively building relationships by asking thoughtful questions, and regularly reflecting on their own leadership behaviors.Closing thoughts and key takeawaysAlex shares a few final insights, including the origins of Chicago's "Windy City" nickname and the importance of leaders being humble and focused on being human, rather than trying to be the smartest person in the room.The Next 100 Days Podcast Co-HostsGraham ArrowsmithGraham founded Finely Fettled ten years ago to help business owners and marketers market to affluent and high-net-worth customers.

Let's face it—rejection sucks. Whether it's a gut-punch text, a polite but painful “no,” or the opportunity you swore was yours slipping through your fingers—it all sucks. But if you're putting yourself out there (pitching, applying, risking anything at all), rejection isn't a bug in the system. It is the system. Enter: Alice Draper. She's the host of the My Rejection Story podcast, founder of Hustling Writers, and a woman who knows how to turn every “no” into a bigger, better “hell yes.” Her work makes podcast guesting and publicity accessible for anyone brave enough to try—and yes, that includes you. In this episode, we're talking about flipping the rejection script. We explore the concept of “rejection goals” (like actually tracking your no's), the power of micro-rejections, why a rejection community might be your secret weapon, and how embracing rejection can build the kind of confidence that doesn't crumble the minute someone doesn't like your pitch, post, or personality. Alice doesn't do fluff, fake positivity, or waking up early (same, friend), but she does deliver actionable, unfiltered insights for anyone ready to stop fearing rejection and start using it. So grab your strongest coffee and join us—because if we're gonna get rejected, we might as well make it worth it.

Starting this month, I'm going to do two new things. One is that I'll plan on releasing episodes on a more regular schedule, on the first, third, and fourth Thursdays of each month. The other is that the second of those three episodes will be paywalled, and it will be a bit different in content from my usual podcast. It'll be shorter, typically a half hour give or take, and it will be much more topical than I usually like to be. I'll talk to my guest or guests about some current politics and news, and I'll talk about the literary intellectual controversy or trend of the moment, if there's one at hand when we're recording.I won't be offended if you don't want to pay, but of course will be grateful if you do. And to my stalwart existing paid subscribers who forked over money when I wasn't even paywalling anything, much gratitude. You're on my hall of honors list, which as you know is hanging in the burned out husk of the Friendly's Restaurant on Sumner Ave in Springfield Massachusetts. -DanMy guest on the podcast today is Derek Guy, who is North America's premiere men's fashion journalist and critic. This isn't a highly competitive category—most fashion writing is dumb and corrupt, and most of it is about women's fashion—but Derek wears the crown exceptionally well. He shows what's possible in that space, consistently writing thoughtful, substantive essays not just about what's hip in men's fashion but what it means culturally, sociologically, politically.If you've heard of Derek, it's almost certainly because for a while he was an accidental celebrity on Twitter. He was just on the platform, doing his well-regarded but relatively obscure men's fashion thing, slowly building his online presence, when the algorithm took hold of him and made him ubiquitous on the site, dropping him into the feeds of millions of people who had never shown any interest whatsoever in his subject. As the Wall Street Journal reported in 2023:Of all the changes at Twitter Inc. under Elon Musk so far, this might be the most unexpected: A California-based menswear writer, who weighs in on incorporating western-style wear into your wardrobe, and on his favorite Italian tailors, suddenly seems to be all over the platform.The Twitter account @dieworkwear, run by Derek Guy, is popping up left and right in users' timelines—even for those who don't follow him. The phenomenon has befuddled users—and Mr. Guy himself.Derek doesn't know why this happened. He didn't have a backroom deal with Elon Musk. It just happened. He became the “men's wear guy on Twitter.”I initially reached out to Derek not to have him on the podcast, but because I was trying to develop a story pitch on men's fashion in the age of Trump, and I wanted to see if I could pick his brain for ideas. It turned out he was already at work on a few different stories on different aspects of that topic, and it occurred to me that I could kill two birds with one podcast episode. One of the articles we discuss in our conversation hasn't run yet. The other, his Bloomberg story “The Evolution of the Alpha Male Aesthetic,” goes back into the history of macho male fitness influencer fashion to explain why the new crop of alpha male influencers dresses the way it does. Among the interesting ironies it points out is that the styles we currently think of as manosphere chic—Joe Rogan in his super tight jeans and super tight t-shirts, Andrew Tate stuffed into slim fit suits like a misogynistic sausage—are directly descended from 1990s high-end fashions that were intended as rejections of machisimo. Guy writes:Early adopters of slim-fit style were fashion-forward urbanites who embraced this European vision of youthful cool. They wore shrunken blazers, used chamomile-infused moisturizers, and could explain the difference between Chelsea boots and jodhpurs. But their aesthetic rattled the mainstream. In search of a label, the media landed on “metrosexual,” a term that, not so subtly, cast suspicion on a man's gender and sexuality. The metrosexual was someone who took pride in taste and understood why “some women have 47 pairs of black shoes.” What set him apart wasn't just his grooming habits or aesthetic literacy, but his attitude towards gender performance. As the New York Times wrote in 2003, this new archetype possessed “a carefree attitude toward the inevitable suspicion that a man who dresses well… is gay.”While slim-fit marched down high-fashion runways, it also crept through indie rock shows, early style blogs, and menswear forums like StyleForum and Superfuture. These communities turned fit into a kind of doctrine, elevating silhouettes like APC New Standards and Uniqlo button-downs as markers of elite taste. As The Strokes played onstage in threadbare tees and skin-tight denim, wealthy urbanites chased the look by purchasing Slimane's most popular creations: Dior's 17 cm and 19 cm jeans, named after the width of their leg openings. Those priced out of luxury labels raided the women's aisle for tight denim, a gender-bending hack that Levi's would later celebrate with their 2011 “Ex-Girlfriend Jeans” for men. Even the heritage revival got a trim. The traditional symbols of masculinity—workwear, Ivy tailoring, military surplus—were recut for a different era, one where style was no longer bulky but compressed, tailored close to the bone. In its early years, slim fit was met with derision and low-grade cultural panic. Critics said consumerism had hollowed out traditional manhood, replacing it with men who spent too much time curating their appearance. Others fretted that the rise of shrunken silhouettes was a symptom of masculine decay. But soon, everyone became metrosexual. Fashion magazines treated slim fit as a kind of pseudo-science: shoulder seams had to sit on the edge of the shoulder bone; trousers must taper just-so; any loose fabric signaled laziness or sloppiness. J.Crew helped bring this new silhouette into everyday offices. Their Liquor Store concept shop, opened in 2008, transformed an after-hours watering hole into a menswear-only boutique laden with 1960s-era references to traditional masculinity—antique rugs, leather club chairs, and Hemmingway novels sitting alongside Red Wings—even as they sold slim chambray shirts and cropped blazers. At the same time, Mad Men introduced a new masculine figure: Don Draper. Emotionally sealed off and impeccably dressed, Draper gave the slim-cut suit an edge of stoic authority. Slim tailoring had became synonymous with professional competence and upward mobility.Eventually, slim fit stopped feeling radical. Its early ties to gender rebellion faded as the silhouette was absorbed into more conventional ideas of masculinity. What once looked subversive—shrunken jeans, tight shirts, tailoring that clung instead of concealing—became standard fare in offices, weddings, and Tinder profiles. New subcultures rebranded the look with more conventionally masculine associations. EDC (Everyday Carry) enthusiasts, armed with pocket knives, flashlights, and multitools, adopted slim-fit gear as part of a rugged preparedness ethos. Their slim tactical pants and fitted henleys weren't about gender ambiguity; they were survivalist uniforms. Athleisure brands such as Rhone and Alo Yoga pushed the same silhouette in poly-stretch fabrics, merging gymwear with streetwear into a softer kind of masculine armor. In Silicon Valley, tech founders embraced minimalist wardrobes built around Everlane tees, slim joggers, and all-white sneakers. The aesthetic once dismissed as “metro” was now treated as self-optimization. Slim fit, in the end, didn't rewrite the code of masculinity. It just offered a new way to perform it.In addition to the two stories we discuss, he's also gone on to write a new story on a person we discuss in the conversation - Trumpist intellectual Michael Anton, who is a huge clothes horse and for a long time was a regular presence on high end men's fashion forums. It's a fun conversation, particularly if you're interested in questions of masculinity, culture, and identity. Listen!

Bonjour from Roland-Garros, well we should say the Jardin du Luxembourg for a special edition of Tennis Weekly Journal as Alina and Chris have ventured into the city and found the local tennis courts. On today's episode they cover the epic match between Gael Monfils and Jack Draper that lit up the Night session and Philippe-Chatrier in one of the matches of the tournament. They debate the French Open crowd, asking if they go too far after they helped a clearly injured Arthur Fils hobble over the line against an increasingly irritated Jaume Munar on Court Suzanne Lenglen. Would he have won without the crowd? Alina doesn't think so and neither does Arthur. As well as the on court action, the Night Session being exclusively reserved for Men's matches has become a hot topic once again. Will there ever be a solution and can a solution be found whilst the Prime tennis contract exists in France? Alina and Chris try to provide some context on the increasingly repetitive and polarising topic as it isn't as simple as scheduling a women's match in the night session slot.As well as the more thought provoking topics, in true Tennis Weekly Journal style there is fun to be had as Alina and Chris recount their galette experience at lunch and the debate is settled, in future it's sugar and butter for them!PROPERTY HUB INVESTIf you're serious about property, head to https://propertyhub.net/start to take your first step.SOCIALSFollow us on Twitter, Instagram, TikTok and YouTube, plus email the show tennisweeklypod@gmail.com.MERCHPurchase Tennis Weekly Merch through our Etsy store including limited edition designs by Krippa Design where all proceeds go towards the podcast so we can keep doing what we do!REVIEWS***Please take a moment to rate and review the show on Apple Podcasts, Spotify or wherever you get your pods.

When most people see red tape, they stop. Darin Johnson saw an opportunity. In this episode of Inside EMS, Chris and Kelly welcome Darin — a paramedic, operations supervisor and now urgent care owner — to break down how he helped spearhead Utah's House Bill 14. The goal? Allow paramedics to practice to their full scope outside of traditional EMS settings. What started as a frustrating moment working in mobile IV therapy spiraled into a full-on legislative effort that took over 3 years to realize. And guess what? It passed. But Darin didn't stop there. He then launched Mod Doc, a fusion-style urgent and primary care center in Draper, Utah, run with a team of paramedics, flight nurses and a nurse practitioner. The mission? Community-centered care that blends traditional and holistic approaches — and gives paramedics a real seat at the table. This episode is a playbook for anyone ready to stop asking “Why not?” and start saying, “Watch this.” Top quotes from Darin Johnson “I'm just trying to create fusion medicine. Kind of like when you go to a restaurant and you get fusion food. I just want to bring all the best parts of medicine together and provide the best care for people so they can have good quality of life.” “Paramedics should be expanding their scope of practice. We really should be utilizing our ability to operate in remote environments and in homes and everywhere else.” “I had a moment where I just stopped and went, ‘Wait, huh? You'll let me do all these things if I'm working for an EMS agency, but if I have all the same things in place working private than I can't do that.' And it started this whole journey of wanting to understand why paramedics weren't recognized for their scope of practice in the private setting.” Enjoying the show?

What if rejection wasn't something to fear—but a skill to build? In this episode of A Productive Conversation, I chat with Alice Draper, founder of Hustling Writers and host of My Rejection Story. Alice has helped clients land interviews on hundreds of top podcasts and is on a mission to demystify the power of rejection, especially for creatives and entrepreneurs.We explore what it means to navigate self-rejection, build visibility in an increasingly noisy world, and pitch yourself without compromising your voice. As someone who's been on both sides of the podcast pitch, Alice shares refreshing insights that go beyond the usual tips and templates.Six Discussion PointsHow Alice went from freelance journalist to podcast publicity expert (accidentally)Why self-rejection is the most insidious form of rejection—and how to combat itThe link between imposter syndrome and visibility for marginalized voicesJournaling as a path to resilience, awareness, and actionHow community can be your greatest hack for rejection resistanceWhat makes a strong podcast pitch—and why vulnerability is essentialThree Connection PointsHustling WritersListen to My Rejection StoryCheck out Alice's appearance on This Changes EverythingThis conversation reminded me that rejection isn't a sign of failure—it's a signal that you're putting yourself out there.

Drama, delight and double bagels! It can only mean one thing... the French Open Round 1 catch up at Roland Garros with Joel and Kim. It's been a Brit bonanza in Paris, with 6 of 7 sailing into Round 2 – including Emma Raducanu, who now faces defending champ Iga Swiatek in a blockbuster showdown. Cameron Norrie also pulled off the upset of the round, outlasting Medvedev in five, while Jack Draper kept cool to seal a confident 4-set win.Elsewhere, big names like Sinner, Alcaraz, Sabalenka, Gauff, and Djokovic (fresh off his 100th career title!) breezed through – but it wasn't all smooth sailing for the Americans, with Taylor Fritz and Emma Navarro crashing out early. Plus, Vika Azarenka dished out a ruthless double bagel, Caroline Garcia said her final singles farewell at her home Slam, and Roland Garros paid an emotional tribute to the King of Clay himself, Rafael Nadal, with the Big 4 reuniting to honour his legacy.

Turning your hobby blog into a thriving business doesn't have to feel overwhelming. This eye-opening conversation with Amy Reinecke and Jennifer Draper of Spark Media Concepts reveals the strategic framework bloggers need to build sustainable, profitable platforms.The foundation begins with clarity. Many content creators struggle with the "multi-passionate" dilemma, resisting the focus that actually attracts their ideal audience. Amy and Jennifer explain why niching down isn't a life sentence, but rather the path to authority that allows future pivots. They share practical wisdom from supporting bloggers since 2017, emphasizing that your website remains the only digital real estate you truly own.Technical overwhelm stops many bloggers before they start. The guests break down the essential elements every blog needs: a self-hosted WordPress site, appropriate plugins, and an email marketing service that captures your audience from day one. The good news? Starting doesn't require expensive custom designs - quality themes provide everything needed for professional presentation.Content creation becomes the next hurdle. The conversation explores how burnout happens when creators attempt to produce endless original content across multiple platforms. The solution? Strategic content planning based on keyword research paired with intentional repurposing. One well-crafted blog post can generate approximately twenty pieces of content when approached systematically.Perhaps most valuable is their perspective on embracing AI as an assistant rather than replacement. Initially resistant themselves, Amy and Jennifer now leverage these tools to streamline processes, prevent burnout, and focus creative energy where it matters most. Their practical approach to technology, content planning, and audience building provides the roadmap bloggers need to transform information overload into sustainable success.Ready to move from overwhelmed to thriving? This episode delivers the clarity and confidence to build your blog with purpose.Support the show
