In this episode, Neil shares the joys and memorable experiences that come with being an Airbnb host. Focusing on the positive aspects of hosting, Neil recounts fun interactions with guests, from playing croquet with French engineering students to hosting spontaneous house parties that celebrate diverse cultures through food. He emphasises the importance of making guests feel valued and creating lasting memories, highlighting how small gestures of kindness can lead to meaningful connections. KEY TAKEAWAYS Instead of dwelling on the negatives of hosting, it's important to highlight the joyful experiences and connections made with guests. Emphasising fun can enhance the hosting experience for both the host and the guests. Every guest arrives with an unspoken desire to feel valued. By creating a welcoming and engaging atmosphere, hosts can foster memorable interactions that make guests feel special. Hosting can be enriched by participating in fun activities with guests, such as games, food gatherings, or local events. These shared experiences can create lasting memories and strengthen connections. Acknowledging and celebrating guests' accomplishments, no matter how small, can significantly enhance their experience. Simple gestures, like sharing a drink or a meal, can leave a lasting impact. The law of reciprocity suggests that when hosts show kindness and warmth, guests are likely to respond in kind. This creates a positive cycle of goodwill that benefits both parties and enhances the overall hosting experience. BEST MOMENTS "Every one of them has a message stamped on their forehead that reads, make me feel important." "When you share a fun activity with someone else, their reaction to the experience will amplify the fun that you get too." "It's not just about sharing food with guests from six different countries or riding bikes to the pub. It's been about why these moments matter." "When a guest shows up at your door, they don't wear that badge saying, make me feel important. But just like everybody else on the planet, it's secretly there." "These aren't marketing tricks, they're just moments of genuine connection and the more you give, the more that comes back to you."

Ireland continues to participate in the #PlantHealth4Life campaign, a European campaign to raise awareness of the critical role plant health plays in protecting food, biodiversity, and the environment. Now in its third year, the #PlantHealth4Life campaign returns with renewed focus on citizen empowerment, encouraging people across Europe including gardeners, travellers, and families - to become active plant health ambassadors. Led by the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) and the European Commission (EC), the 2025 campaign is supported by the Department of Agriculture, Food & the Marine in Ireland, and will empower citizens to become plant health ambassadors, spotlighting how everyday actions can have powerful impacts on biodiversity, agriculture, and the environment. Plant Health, Biodiversity, and Economy in the EU Speaking on the campaign, garden designer and UN FAO Goodwill Ambassador for Ireland, Diarmuid Gavin, said: "Along with being places of beauty, our gardens are frontline defences in the fight for biodiversity and climate resilience. Every seed we sow responsibly and every pest we spot early is a step toward protecting Ireland's natural environment. This campaign reminds us that plant health begins at home, and we all have a role to play." Ms Louise Byrne, Chief Plant Health Officer for Ireland, added: "Protecting plant health is something every person in Ireland can contribute to. People should travel wisely and avoid bringing plants and seeds home from abroad. Practice responsible sourcing of plants with plant passports from reputable operators. Monitor plants in your garden and in the wider environment for pests and diseases and if you've concerns email PlantAndPests@agriculture.gov.ie. Empower the next generation by teaching children about the importance of plant health." Emphasising practical action and community involvement, the campaign encourages informed citizens not only to reflect but also to share their knowledge and inspire others to join in the collective effort to safeguard our ecosystems and economies. The campaign urges travellers not to bring back any plants, flowers, seeds, fruits, or vegetables from outside the EU, as these items may harbour plant pests or diseases detrimental to native flora. Additionally, consumers are advised to buy plants and seeds online only if accompanied by a valid phytosanitary or plant health certificate. Embracing good plant hygiene practices and promptly addressing signs of plant pests or diseases in home gardens and communal outdoor spaces will also prevent their spread to neighbouring plants and natural habitats. Sylvain Giraud, Head of Plant Health Unit in the Directorate General for Health and Food Safety (DG SANTE) said: "When citizens understand the vital role of plant health in their lives - from the food on their tables to the air they breathe - they become powerful agents of change. The #PlantHealth4Life campaign is a reminder that each of us can make a meaningful difference by staying informed and making thoughtful choices that help protect what sustains us all." Giuseppe Stancanelli, Team Leader for Plant Health Risk Assessment at EFSA added: "A plant isn't just a plant - it can carry other living organisms too. In our interconnected world, plants move more than ever. That's why the EU relies on science-based risk assessment to understand and manage potential threats to plant health - helping to protect our environment, agriculture, and biodiversity. Through the #PlantHealth4Life campaign, we're raising awareness across Europe." The 2025 #PlantHealth4Life campaign is running across 26 EU Member States, five EU pre-accession countries, and Switzerland. Visit www.efsa.europa.eu/en/plh4l and discover how to safeguard plant health.

We love a good crossover episode! In late 2024, your host Paul Smith featured on The Jasper Blueprint podcast with Bessi Graham. It was so relevant for Future Directors' listener...that we decided to add it to our episode list. In this episode, Bessi and I explore governance as a competitive edge in small to medium-sized businesses. Focusing on future-fit boards that manage responsibilities across ALL stakeholders, our conversation went beyond the traditional view of governance as mere compliance. The episode highlights the pivotal role governance plays in decision-making, particularly in privately-owned businesses where it is often overlooked. Also in this episode: Effective governance includes diversity of thought, curiosity, and ongoing education for all involved participants in board settings. Stakeholder mapping reveals overlooked perspectives that significantly influences decision-making and strategic direction. Emphasising fit-for-purpose governance structures significantly improves the functionality and inclusivity of board and decision-making processes.

In this conversation, as part of our Menopause Awareness Month series, Bahar Etminan speaks with Zoe Bingley-Pullin, nutritionist, chef and author of "Eat Your Way to Healthy Hormones," about the critical role of nutrition in managing hormone health during perimenopause and menopause. They explore the importance of balancing sex hormones such as testosterone, oestrogen, and progesterone, discussing how fluctuations can impact sleep, weight gain, bone density, and muscle mass. The discussion also covers the critical role of sufficient protein intake, the benefits of specific nutrients like choline and flavonoids, and the role of supplements including DHEA, NMN, magnesium, and calcium. Zoe shares insights on adaptogenic herbs and the power of lifestyle changes in maintaining hormone health. Takeaways Hormone health is paramount during perimenopause and menopause, with nutrition playing a key role in supporting bodily changes. Balancing sex hormones such as testosterone, oestrogen, and progesterone is essential for managing symptoms like sleep disturbances, hot flushes, mood swings, and weight gain. Adequate protein intake is crucial, recommended at one gram per kilogram of body weight, incorporating a variety of sources in the diet. Key nutrients such as choline, flavonoids, and essential fats (omega-3, 6, and 9) support hormone health and cognitive function. Supplements like DHEA, NMN, magnesium, and calcium can aid hormone health, though professional guidance is recommended to determine appropriate dosages and types. Adaptogenic herbs such as ashwagandha and ginseng can help regulate hormones and manage stress effectively. Exercise, especially strength and weight training, benefits bone health and muscle mass, which are particularly important during perimenopause and menopause. Emphasising self-care and self-love is vital, as maintaining both physical and mental well-being is crucial during this significant phase.

Jeannette looks at the art of setting achievable goals for 2025. Emphasising the importance of transforming dreams into actionable plans, she covers a structured approach to goal-setting that includes reflecting on one's big picture vision, engaging in self-reflection, and establishing clear, measurable objectives. KEY TAKEAWAYS Focus on establishing specific, actionable goals rather than vague New Year's resolutions. This approach increases the likelihood of achieving desired outcomes. Utilise a yearly goal planner to outline your big picture vision, engage in self-reflection, and set concrete goals and objectives for the year ahead. Self-reflection is crucial for personal growth. Assess your strengths, values, and past performance to inform your future goals and ensure they align with who you are. Consider various aspects of life when setting goals, including personal development, health and fitness, financial objectives, and giving back to the community. BEST MOMENTS "Dreams, if they're not backed up with goals and super important action, then they are just dreams." "You cannot drive a car by looking through the rearview mirror. However, we can most definitely learn from our past experiences that will help catapult us forward into the future." "What are your giving goals? Every single one of us can give... sometimes it doesn't even cost you any money." "You have to take the action, to take massive action. Even if it's baby steps, that's fine, but take the action." This is the perfect time to get focused on what YOU want to really achieve in your business, career, and life. It’s never too late to be BRAVE and BOLD and unlock your inner BRILLIANT.

In this episode, Ishreen invites listeners to envision a transformative future of work, inspired by the spirit of Christmas. Drawing parallels to the story of Scrooge, the episode explores a world where diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging are at the forefront, allowing everyone to learn and grow regardless of their background. With the help of AI and technology, workplaces become collaborative environments where knowledge is shared across generations, and personalized learning is accessible to all. KEY TAKEAWAYS Ishreen envisions a future where everyone has equal opportunities to learn and grow, supported by technology that enhances rather than replaces human roles. There is a call for schools and workplaces to collaborate in creating engaging learning programs that cater to diverse needs and backgrounds, fostering a sense of belonging. Emphasising a humanity-centric perspective means prioritizing the well-being of all individuals and communities, rather than focusing solely on individual success. The future includes the use of AI and robots as supportive tools that handle mundane tasks, allowing individuals to focus on their passions and strengths. The message highlights that change is possible and encourages collective action to ensure that everyone has access to learning and growth opportunities, ultimately creating a brighter future for all. BEST MOMENTS "Imagine a world where everyone, no matter where they're from or how old they are, has a chance to learn and grow." "AI and robots are our helpers, not our replacements. They're like high-tech elves, making our work easier and more fun." "In this future, we need to focus on being humanity-centric rather than just human-centric." "Create workplaces where everyone's voice is heard, like a perfect Christmas carol where every note matters." "It's never too late to change and create a better future for everyone."

Rob examines the complexities of green energy policy and its implications for individuals and property investors in the UK. Emphasising the need for a cleaner and greener environment, the discussion highlights the potential economic burdens that may arise from the government's aggressive decarbonisation goals by 2030. KEY TAKEAWAYS The current green energy policies in the UK are viewed as unsustainable and potentially harmful to the economy, leading to higher energy bills for households and property investors. The goal to decarbonise the electricity grid by 2030 is seen as unrealistic, with significant changes required that may not be suitable for the population, potentially resulting in increased costs. Nuclear energy is presented as the cleanest and most reliable baseload energy source, necessary for achieving a greener grid, especially as wind and solar are intermittent and cannot solely meet energy demands. The push for green energy and the associated subsidies will ultimately lead to increased standing charges and energy prices, affecting lower-income households the most and creating a cycle of financial strain. BEST MOMENTS "What the government in the UK are trying to do is not sustainable and not suitable, and it really is making us all poorer." "To decarbonise the electricity grid in five years is, in my opinion, not good." "Nuclear really is the answer... if you want a greener grid and an abundance of electricity, nuclear is the way forward." "We're making ourselves poorer by design... all of those investments, all of those subsidies get passed along to us through a standing charge." "When you tell them it's gonna cost them hundreds and possibly thousands of pounds per person, that's when you're gonna get resistance."

Decision to Move: An invitation from a family friend leads him to embrace the challenge of moving to the UK. Cultural Shock: Reuben describes his arrival in Stoke-on-Trent and the adjustments he faced in a new environment. Unexpected Opportunities: A chance direct message led him to a modelling agency, turning a casual interest into a full-time career. From Part-time to Full-time: After modelling part-time for several years, he made the leap to full-time in 2023 to raise awareness for vitiligo. Inspiring Others: Reuben aims to help others embrace their identities, drawing inspiration from individuals who overcame significant challenges. Importance of Cultural Exposure: He believes every child should have the opportunity to live outside their home country to understand diversity and multiculturalism.

In this episode of Stronger Sales Teams, host Ben Wright engages with Mike Latch to explore the complexities involved in establishing an effective sales process and the role of technology in business scaling. Emphasising the importance of integrating a structured sales process with technology, Mike presents straightforward strategies that are accessible for businesses of all sizes. The conversation underscores the significance of onboarding programmes, scalable processes, and the strategic utilisation of technological solutions to bolster performance rather than impede it. Drawing from his extensive technical expertise, Mike offers practical guidance on managing sales teams, illustrating how well-defined sales processes can transform even large sales teams into efficient, revenue-generating entities without sacrificing quality.About the Guest:Mike Latch is the CEO and co-founder of Patter AI, an innovative sales enablement technology firm located in the United States. With more than 20 years of experience in both technical and sales domains, Mike possesses a diverse background that includes electrical engineering, physics, and strategic sales. His distinctive combination of skills was instrumental in scaling his previous venture from $50 million to over $1 billion in revenue, culminating in its acquisition by ADT. Furthermore, Mike is a co-author of the book titled “Sales Sucks”. https://www.salessucksbook.com/ Key Takeaways: A small sales team should focus on hiring skilled individuals, while a larger sales force requires robust processes to ensure consistency and scalability. Technology integration should focus on solving specific problems or seizing opportunities rather than simply implementing tools without clear purposes. Clear, well-crafted onboarding programs and well-defined sales processes can dramatically reduce onboarding times and improve overall sales team performance. Mike emphasises the power of consultative sales processes that leverage storytelling to help customers better understand and engage with offerings. Strategic use of tech in sales calls can enable average sales reps to effectively handle complex objections and close more deals.

Angela shares practical tips for downregulating the nervous system amidst the busy period of the holiday season. Emphasising the importance of integrating small, manageable practices into daily routines, Angela highlights techniques such as post-workout relaxation, diaphragmatic breathing, and the benefits of Zone 2 training. KEY TAKEAWAYS Incorporate short practices throughout the day, such as deep breathing or lying down for a minute after intense exercise, to help downregulate the nervous system and improve overall well-being. Engage in moderate-intensity activities, like casual walking, which can benefit the endocrine and immune systems without the pressure of high-intensity workouts. Taking short breaks (e.g., 10 minutes) between meetings can help maintain calmness and reduce stress, allowing for better focus and efficiency. Alternate between high-intensity cognitive tasks and low-intensity activities to optimise productivity and reduce cognitive fatigue. Avoid excessive task switching to prevent attention residue. BEST MOMENTS "What we want to do is just remind ourselves that sometimes it's about less doing and more being." "Never underestimate the power of these tiny practices because it's these small things that cumulatively really add up." "When people take breaks between meetings, they remain much calmer." "You can do a breath walk, but it doesn't have to be intense; just being in nature has so many benefits."

After 20 years in a relationship that limited and stifled her, former advertising professional, turned fitness pioneer and award-winning entrepreneur, Vicki Anstey became (age 41) one of the first ever women to participate in Channel 4's ‘SAS Who Dares Wins', reaching the final stages after 11 days in extreme conditions at an altitude of 3,000ft in Chile. In 2021, she and 2 other women, the Girls Who Dare, set a new World Record for rowing unaided across the Pacific Ocean, confronting her fear of deep, open water to do so. It took 60 days, 17 hours and 6 minutes. Her latest endeavour (a second Guinness World Record) was to cycle 3,000 miles in the ‘World's Toughest Bike Race' as a team of four women from West to East coast America in just 6 days 19 hours and 38 minutes. Vicki has also completed ultra distance runs (covering 250kms and carrying everything she needed to survive) in some of the World's most extreme environments – crossing the Arctic in temperatures of -35 degrees and the Savannnahs of Kenya in blistering 50 degree heat. *** Don't miss out on the latest episodes of the Tough Girl Podcast, released every Tuesday at 7am UK time!

The Asians Represent crew tried playing Mappa Mundi, a TTRPG driven by exploration and ecology that takes place on the continent of Evasu, one part of the world of Ecumene. Ecumene is slowly being unmade by Fate, and players take on the role of Chroniclers who set out from hearth and home to travel the wilds and tell the story of this realm in flux. Emphasising non-violent gameplay, Mappa Mundi tasks Chroniclers with working alongside the peoples, monsters, and creatures of Ecumene as a small but vital part of a wide ecosystem, with the power, skill, and knowledge to save that ecosystem from collapse. Step beyond the comforts of home and explore a land that needs you. Research your targets as you explore cities and settlements across ten regions; create maps as you journey through the wilds; encounter monsters, creatures, and cultures isolated for one hundred years. //LEARN MORE https://www.drivethrurpg.com/en/product/477684/mappa-mundi-an-exploration-ecology-rpg-prerelease-guide https://www.threesailsstudios.com/mappamundirpg //SUPPORT Help us produce new and exclusive content!

Visit www.carolbike.com and use code ANGELA for an exclusive discount Angela is joined by Finnian Kelly, who shares his transformative journey from a life driven by hustle and external validation to one focused on personal mastery and intentional living. Finnian discusses the importance of grounding oneself in feelings rather than outcomes, emphasising that true fulfilment comes from within, as well as exploring the concept of belief loops and how our subconscious shapes our experiences, particularly in relationships and financial abundance. MAIN TAKEAWAYS Transitioning from a hustle-and-grind mentality to focusing on personal mastery can lead to more sustainable success and fulfilment. Emphasising personal growth over material achievements allows for deeper connections and opportunities. Living with intention involves prioritising feelings over outcomes. By identifying the feelings associated with goals, individuals can cultivate those feelings in the present, leading to a more fulfilling life and potentially surpassing their original goals. Recognising and understanding subconscious belief loops is crucial for personal transformation. These loops often dictate behaviours and feelings, and by questioning and reframing them, individuals can break free from negative patterns. Breath work serves as a powerful tool for connecting with one's true self and accessing deeper states of awareness. It can help in managing emotions, enhancing mental clarity, and facilitating personal growth by bridging the conscious and subconscious minds. BEST MOMENTS "What I've learned is if we don't do it through a conscious awareness, eventually your soul or spirit will pick you up and sort of go, wake up. And it does it through trauma." "The first part of intentionality is it's a feelings first approach to living in leadership. Ultimately, the only reason why we want something to occur is because we hope it gives us a feeling." "There's a great expression, isn't there, of being the flower, not the bee. And I think so many tryu to be the busy bee" "In order to let it go, you need to actually feel it. We have to feel what we didn't feel safe or we didn't have the space to feel at some time in the past."
