So, it really is guilt on all fronts if you're not careful.”   In this Best of Series episode, we replay a chat we had in 2019 with Nicolette Rubinsztein AM, Professional Board member and author, on removing guilt, building female confidence, and overcoming busy-ness.

PRESS REVIEW – Friday, June 6: The press react to Donald Trump and Elon Musk's spectacular, messy and public fallout. This as Trump tells Politico that all is well between the two men. Also: The Economist looks at the decline of boys among prospective parents and why having girls is now sought-after in IVF and adoptions. The sports pages react to a "crazy" Nations League game between France and Spain. Plus: could David Beckham finally become a "Sir"? Donald Trump and Elon Musk's spectacular, messy and public fallout is in all the papers this Friday. The former BFFs-turned-enemies started feuding this week over Musk's criticism of Trump's "big beautiful bill" – a domestic policy bill that will add trillions to the public deficit. Vindictive, petty, childish, messy and public are just some of the adjectives used by The New York Times to describe Musk and Trump's spat. The Wall Street Journal recalls that the spat escalated gradually, starting with Musk criticising Trump's bill, to which Trump said Musk was aware of what had been coming. This was followed by Musk's calls to "kill the bill", to which Trump responded by saying that Musk suffered from Trump derangement syndrome. Then came the ultimate insult: Musk said that Trump wouldn't have won the election without him. The editors of the Wall Street Journal liken the two men's breakup to the War of the Roses. However, their spat may be as short-lived as their bromance. An exclusive from Politico's US website notes that Trump told the media outlet that all is OK between Musk and him. Privately, White House officials are working to de-escalate the feud.We turn our attention to an interesting article in The Economist, which looks at the rising preference for girl babies and the stunning decline in the preference for boys. In the 1980s, with the rise of ultrasound machines that could determine sex during pregnancy, millions of girls were aborted. Having a girl at the time was perceived as undesirable. But today, in some regions, preferences for girls are growing. The magazine notes this is the case among Japanese couples who only want one child. American and Scandinavian couples are more likely to have more children if their first one is a boy. In adoption, parents pay more for a girl and prospective mothers opt for XX chromosomes when sex selection is possible in IVF. The reasons for these changing attitudes are myriad and quite stereotypical – that girls are easier to raise and more academically astute, unlike boys who are perceived as more likely to get into trouble, as 93 percent of prisoners in the world are male. There is also the perception that a surplus of men, as we saw with gender selection in the 1980s, has created a sexually frustrated generation, leading to violence against women. The feeling is that a surplus of females in the world will have a counter-effect: more peace.The sports pages are awash with jubilation, joy and heartbreak after France's loss to Spain in the Nations League. The Spanish daily Marca calls it a dance that ended with a scare for Spain who were leading 4-0 and then 5-1 in the second half before Les Bleus scored three goals in the last fourteen minutes. But it wasn't enough for France to win what Le Figaro calls a crazy game. Spain play Portugal in the final on Sunday. L'Equipe shares the same sentiment, calling the match "totally mad". Also sharing front page space today is French tennis player Loïs Boisson, who lost to Coco Gauff in the semi-finals of the French Open despite a dream run at the tournament.There's good news, however, for Jordan's national team. Jordan Times reports that the team has qualified for the first time ever for the 2026 World Cup after beating Oman 3-0. The paper calls it "a monumental moment for Jordanian football and a culmination of years of effort, heartbreak and relief."Finally, British daily The Sun reports that David Beckham could be set to become Sir David Beckham in next week's king's birthday honours. It's been a years-long campaign – Beckham was first put forward for knighthood in 2011 after helping secure the 2012 London Olympics. But the footballer was blocked after being embroiled in a tax avoidance scheme. The long wait may now be almost over for the man known as Golden Balls – or possibly, Sir Golden Balls!You can catch our press review every morning on France 24 at 7:20am and 9:20am (Paris time), from Monday to Friday.

Before the King's Birthday long weekend is done, a list of kiwi's will be crowned with their own titles, when the honours list is unveiled on Monday. Those people will recieve titles such as dame or knight, or letters like ONZM, officer of the New Zealand order of merit for meritorious service to the Crown and the nation. Anyone can nominate a person they think is worthy of New Zealand royal honour. The applications are considered by the Cabinet Appointments and Honours Committee. The Prime Minister then makes the final recommendation to the King. Helen Clark, ONZ, joined Lisa Owen to discuss the list.

Are our MPs self-serving pigs?  #UKPolitics #JonGaunt #BritishSteel #CostOfLivingCrisis #MPsExpenses  Are our MPs self-serving pigs? In this explosive video, Jon Gaunt asks the tough question many Brits are thinking: Are our Members of Parliament really working for the people – or just themselves? As the political elite cry over working weekends to "save British Steel", hardworking Brits are juggling multiple jobs, battling the cost of living crisis, and pensioners are choosing between heating and eating due to slashed winter fuel payments. Britain is broken – and yet MPs get a pay rise, enjoy taxpayer-funded expenses, subsidised bars, second homes, and even claim £900 extra rent for their dog. The new Honours List looks more like a rewards-for-failure scheme.  Meanwhile, real issues like immigration, the small boats crisis, knife crime, gang violence, and the Northern Girls scandal are ignored. Is Parliament out of touch? Is this the end of political accountability?  Don't miss this no-holds-barred political rant. Subscribe now for real talk, raw truth, and fearless free speech.

Deborah Hale MBE has spent her career developing high profile global campaigns. She knows the importance of building brands, navigating complex stakeholders and making change happen by creating enhanced audience engagement.   As employers across the board struggle to resume pre-pandemic levels of organisational performance, Jen, Dom and Cat chat with Deborah to hear what she has learned about creating the conditions that build loyalty and goodwill across diverse audiences. This conversation is a must-listen for any internal communicator looking to drive colleague engagement and imbue a sense of community within increasingly distributed workplaces.   Takeaways   Patience is essential in leadership and communication. Successful campaigns require thorough planning and a clear framework. Engagement is built through consistent and transparent communication. Listening to stakeholders is crucial for effective leadership. Pride in an organisation can be cultivated but not mandated. Personal touches, like handwritten notes, can significantly impact morale. Milestones should be celebrated to maintain momentum in campaigns. Campaigns can lead to movements when they resonate with the public. Cross-functional collaboration enhances the effectiveness of campaigns. Change communication must reflect the realities of employees' experiences.   About Deborah Hale MBE Deborah has a proven track record of developing high profile UK and global campaigns that achieve brand growth, awareness and audience engagement. In all her projects, her starting point is: “what is the change you want to see?” After several years spent promoting the creative industries, she became Head of International Marketing for London, in charge of positioning the capital as a centre of excellence for inward investment, tourism, education and culture. This led to her role as Producer of the 2012 Olympic and Paralympic Torch Relays, in charge of what would become one of the UK's largest public engagement campaigns. She was awarded an MBE in the 2013 New Year's Honours List. As an independent consultant, she has worked with numerous commercial and not for profit organisations such as the Design Council, Permian Global, BBC Children in Need, and the Global Goals campaign.   Find Deborah on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/deborah-hale-mbe-370bb7/

Nichola Hay, MBE, Director of Apprenticeship Strategy and Policy at BPP, the United Kingdom's largest apprenticeship training provider, discusses the evolution of apprenticeships in the UK. After 20 years of helping British businesses attract new talent and upskill employees across their organizations, Nichola is at the forefront of thought leadership and guidance on the challenges and opportunities in the UK's apprenticeship market, for which she was recognized in the Queen's New Year's Honours List of 2021.

The University of Oxford is made up of over 30 colleges and halls spread across the city centre and beyond. These colleges are at the heart of Oxford's reputation as one of the best universities in the world and make it a very special place to study and live. With the oldest colleges being over 700 years old, it is a rare occurrence for a new college to be established. In 2019, Reuben Colleges was established as the newest college at Oxford University. It is a graduate college dedicated to fostering interdisciplinary exchange within an inclusive, innovative and impact-oriented community. My guest in this episode is the first president of Reuben College. Professor Lord Lionel Tarassenko CBE FREng FMedSci is the first president of Reuben College, and Theme Lead for the AI & Machine Learning research cluster. He is a world-leading expert in the application of signal processing and machine learning to healthcare, with a strong track record in translation to clinical medicine. Professor Tarassenko's work has had a major impact on the identification of deterioration in acute care and on the management of chronic disease. The system which he designed for patient monitoring in critical care was the first machine learning system to gain FDA approval (in 2008). Prior to that, Professor Tarassenko had been closely involved in the development of some of the jet engine monitoring software at the core of the Rolls-Royce TotalCare® package. This won him the Rolls-Royce Chairman's Award for Technical Innovation in 2001 and the Sir Henry Royce High Value Patent Award in 2008. Professor Tarassenko was elected to a Fellowship of the Royal Academy of Engineering in 2000, and to a Fellowship of the Academy of Medical Sciences in 2013. He has won many awards for his work, including the British Computer Society (BCS) Medal, the Silver Medal of the Royal Academy of Engineering, and the Institute of Engineering & Technology IT Award, among others. He was made a Commander of the British Empire (CBE) for services to engineering in the 2012 New Year's Honours List. In May of 2024, Professor Tarassenko was appointed to the House of Lords as a non-party-political peer and will join the House of Lords as a cross-bencher (Baron Tarassenko of Headington).

The Honours list is a way of recognising people who have made achievements in public life or committed themselves to serving and helping the UK. The honours system is overseen by the Cabinet Office and the King approves the final list of recipients. There are different types of honours, such as knighthoods, damehoods, orders of the British Empire, and medals.  Anyone can nominate someone for an honour, as long as they are not a close relative or an employee. The nominations are then reviewed by independent committees of experts, who make recommendations to the Prime Minister. The Prime Minister then submits a final list to the King, who has the final say. Who is on the Honours list this year? What are the different honours? In under 3 minutes, we answer your questions!

W/C 25th December 2023This weeks chunk of TFM does kinda have the feel of that week between Christmas & New Year about it, I have explained it away as being a bit of a hibernation moment but I guess you could say it is about being slightly disconnected from the grid.Apart from the nonsense about weights and measures I have lost touch with the world a bit this week, not even bothering to get myself worked up about the absurdity of a 49-day-car-crash of a PM putting forward an Honours List.Clearly it won't last but for now I am not in a rush to re-engage, not when there are box-sets to finish and nobody frowns on me for having. piece of coffee cake with my mid-morning brew. Bliss.Stay safe.Rest Stop - Matchbox 20 Therapy For Me (or TFM as I now refer to it) is a bit of an audio curiosity. It started out as a mechanism for me to clear my head, with the hope that by saying stuff out loud it would act as a little bit of self-help. It's remains loose in style, fluid in terms of content and raw - it's a one take, press record and see what happens, affair.If you want to keep in touch with TFM and the other stuff I do then please follow me on Facebook, Insta, Twitter or Patreon. Thanks for getting this far.

The international response to Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine is scaling up, with the expected provisions of ATACMS and F16s, but remains inadequate to the task of achieving a full victory and often lags dangerously behind requirements, which causes the war to be more protracted, resulting in a greater loss of life on the Ukrainian side. Russia poses a serious threat to the rules-based international order, but is the West's response insufficiently robust in defence of the values it espouses? A recent Chatham House report rang alarm bells and recommended that Western military support to Kyiv should be redoubled before it is too late. ---------- James Sherr OBE has been a senior fellow of the International Centre for Defence & Security in Tallinn since 2019. He also is an associate fellow and former head of the Russia and Eurasia Programme at Chatham House (2008–11). He was a member of the Social Studies Faculty of Oxford University from 1993 to 2012; a fellow of the Conflict Studies Research Centre of the UK Ministry of Defence from 1995 to 2008; and director of studies of the Royal United Services Institute (1983–85). He has published extensively on Soviet and Russian military, security, and foreign policy, as well as energy security, the Black Sea region, and Ukraine's efforts to deal with Russia, the West, and its own domestic problems. He was awarded an OBE in the 2020 New Year's Honours List for his services to British interests overseas. ---------- LINKS: https://www.chathamhouse.org/2023/06/how-end-russias-war-ukraine ----------
