Podcasts about Kirsty

Kirsty Gibson is an investment manager at Baillie Gifford, where she has spent over 13 years.  She is currently focused in particular on investing in US equities with a growth orientation. Our conversation starts with Kirsty's roots and her training in classical ballet. This was an unusual yet direct route to Baillie Gifford as she first came across the firm when she saw that they were sponsoring a ballet performance they had attended – evidence that sponsorship of similar events does in fact get noticed and yield returns! We move then to her investment beliefs, her Masters in carbon management and what she derived from it and her approach to stock picking. We dive into the cultural aspects that make a firm a rewarding place to work, and about the mindset needed to thrive as an active equity manager today.  This podcast is kindly sponsored by Evanston Capital and Alvine Capital. For over 20 years Evanston Capital has had a key focus in identifying early-stage investment managers it believes are capable of generating long-term, value-added returns in complex, innovative strategy areas. Alvine Capital is a specialist investment manager and placement boutique with a particular focus on alternative assets with significant presence in London and Stockholm.

Happy New Year! I'm thrilled to kick off 2026 with our first podcast episode this year! Whether you're recovering from last night's celebrations or enjoying a refreshing walk, this insightful discussion is the perfect way to start the year. Dale is joined by Kirsty Matthews, the CEO of DFN Project Search, to discuss 'From classroom to career: The power of supported internships'. Kirsty sheds light on the challenges faced by young people with learning disabilities in the job market. She shares a shocking statistic: less than 5% of individuals with a learning disability known to their local authority in England secure paid employment, compared to 80% of their peers. DFN Project SEARCH aims to change that, with an ambitious goal of supporting over 10,000 young adults into meaningful paid employment by 2030. Kirsty discusses: The importance of creating structured pathways to employment. How supported internships build confidence and skills in a supportive environment. The incredible impact of seeing neurodiverse individuals thrive in the workplace. "It raises everybody's expectation about what is possible. Bit by bit, we can begin to change the whole face of how we work and take those barriers that we were talking about out."

In celebration of the Pogues' 'Fairytale of New York' EP, we take a detailed look at how their classic Christmas single came together. The Pogues originally formed in London in 1982 by Shane MacGowan, Spider Stacy and Jem Finer. MacGowan had gotten his start playing in the punk band, the Nipple Erectors, and when that band broke up, he began playing in an Irish traditional music style. Gradually, he brought in James Fearnley, Cait O'Riordan and John Hasler to become a sextet. Andrew Ranken replaced John Hasler as they signed with Stiff Records. Their debut album, Red Roses for Me, was released in 1984. For their second album, they added Philip Chevron on guitar and hired Elvis Costello as their producer. Rum Sodomy & the Lash was released in 1985, and they continued working with Costello for the Poguetry in Motion EP, released in 1986. At this point, Cait O'Riordan left the band and they updated the lineup to include Darryl Hunt and Terry Woods. They signed to Island Records and hired Steve Lillywhite to produce their third album. If I Should Fall from Grace with God was eventually released in 1988 and included the Christmas single, “Fairytale of New York.”  In this episode, Steve Lillywhite describes working with the Pogues at this pivotal time in their career when they were expanding the lineup and becoming more ambitious with their song structures and arrangements. Despite not having experience recording a traditional folk band, Lillywhite proved to be the right producer for the Pogues at this moment. His input and confidence in the studio led to them splicing two sections of “Fairytale of New York” together and also enlisting his wife Kirsty MacColl to sing the female part in the song. Jem Finer talks about his initial writing process for the song and how he wrote two potential Christmas ideas that his wife Marcia dismissed as being far too sentimental. Her input led to him rethinking the song and writing about a down on their luck couple, inspired by people who lived in their neighborhood in London. Finer describes how Shane MacGowan then took the song and moved the setting to New York City and added some key lines that were taken from real conversations. James Fearnley describes the thrill of recording the opening section with just piano and voice and how he practiced repeatedly to be able to get that part right. He talks about how the song deserved an ambitious string arrangement and so he worked out some ideas on a synthesizer before bringing in Fiachra Trench to help with the orchestration. By taking inspiration from film scores like Ennio Morricone's Once Upon a Time in America and Leonard Bernstein's On the Waterfront, Fearnley talks about wanting to bring a cinematic sound to match the classic American story that was being told. From the song's long gestation period of a few years, to Steve Lillywhite bringing the tapes home and casually asking Kirsty MacColl to sing on it, to the inspiration behind the classic “I could've been someone”  line, to the initial disappointment of getting to number 2 in the charts, to the perfect sparring duet partners in Shane and Kirsty, to the anti-Christmas Christmas song that has become timeless, we'll hear the stories of how the record came together.

Ever felt that tug to be liked while also wanting to stop caring what anyone thinks? We go straight at that tension and unpack a more honest path: receiving deeply without handing away your power. Instead of preaching cold self-sufficiency or chasing approval, I share show how to anchor in your body, honour real needs and build secure, reciprocal relationships.It starts by naming the subtle ways the get loop shows up: replaying conversations, over-explaining, scanning for cues, or bending to keep the peace. From there, we explore the difference between wounded and divine feminine energy, why control over perception is a losing game, and how grief, boundaries and self-trust shape who gets to be close. You'll hear a clear, lived distinction between hustling for validation and grounded receptivity, brought to life through a vivid restaurant analogy: fully savour what nourishes, lovingly set aside what doesn't, and keep your centre even when others project or pout.This conversation reaches into business, dating and family life with practical takeaways you can use today. Learn to treat desire as data rather than a problem to hide, shift from grasping to receivership, and build a filter that protects your energy. When you stop managing other people's stories, overflow becomes possible: better habits, richer support, cleaner boundaries and connections that actually feel safe. If you're ready to stop walking on eggshells and start letting goodness land, this one will meet you where you are and call you higher.If this resonated, follow the show, share it with a friend who needs it, and leave a quick review to help more listeners find the podcast.

The discussion also touches on the emerging trend of 'golden gappers' – older individuals seeking new experiences after retirement. Overall, the podcast emphasises the value of gap years in shaping young people's lives and careers. Key takeaways: Many Australian school leavers are taking gap years. Gap years are not just for school leavers; older individuals are also participating. Attitude is more important than background for gap year success. Rural students find gap years particularly appealing for financial reasons. Research shows gap years have little effect on degree completion. Students return from gap years more motivated and focused. The gap year industry is growing, with many businesses offering programs. Volunteering during a gap year can be costly. Career opportunities in agriculture and hospitality are abundant for gappers. Golden gappers are redefining the concept of taking a break later in life.

George is in a filthy mood because of Amber's accusation, but Brad thinks he's got the wrong end of the stick. Ed then offers George a lift to Grange Farm and they have a similar conversation, before George shuts the conversation down. Later, when Ed drops in on George at No. 1, The Green, George despairs about his life as a known criminal - even Amber thinks he's a thief. Ed confesses he knew about her suspicions, but he never believed it himself. George though reckons no-one will ever give him a chance and runs up to his room. When Ed follows, trying to get him to talk, George pushes him and Ed falls downstairs, just as Brad appears. Later, Ed tells Brad that he lost his footing, while George suggests Ed slipped on one of Poppy's books. Brad reckons Ed was lucky - it could have been a lot worse.Kirsty walks round the beaver enclosure with Justin, pointing out where the animals have started working. Justin still hasn't watched the beaver footage Kirsty sent him though, admitting he can't think of anything more boring than watching beavers build a dam. Passionate Kirsty finds this difficult to understand, accusing Justin of having no real interest in what they're doing at the Rewilding site. Justin assures her that just because he doesn't respond emotionally that doesn't mean he isn't supportive. As a businessman, he's thrilled at how well it's going and thinks he should employ a similarly committed manager to Kirsty on his other rewilding project to guarantee its success.

Joy finds Tony in low spirits at Bridge Farm, dreading the thought of Christmas and what would have been John's fiftieth birthday on New Year's Eve. He tells Joy they had a row shortly before Tony's vintage tractor overturned and killed John. After Tony goes to see the beavers being released at Rewilding Ambridge, Joy tells Ruth and Pip they should cancel her idea for a Christmas village event. It would feel heartless after what Tony's told her. Ruth suggests asking Pat and Tony what they think first, though. And when they ask Tony he thinks a Christmas Tractor Run through Ambridge sounds wonderful, but gets them to agree to consult Pat before they go ahead and start publicising the event. Alice catches Rex up with what happened in Blackpool, then says she's going to film the beaver release for Phoebe. Rex and Kirsty decide to get on with it, even though Justin's not there. Tony arrives just in time, before the beavers disappear into the woods, and Kirsty and Rex hug each other. Then Alice realises she's only filmed three seconds, though Kirsty points out there will be footage from the enclosure cameras. Justin finally turns up, in time for cake if not beavers. Later, Kirsty and Rex worry about Justin's commitment, before he disappoints again by not showing any interest in footage of the release. But Alice is delighted when Rex offers to send her the footage, so Phoebe and Martha can see the beavers. Emotional Alice then hugs Rex, before it gets awkward and he goes.

In this episode, we explore: • The drowning NDE and Lynn's out-of-body journey • A powerful encounter in the Light • Meeting her biological father - someone she never knew on Earth • Emotional and spiritual confirmation beyond physical life • Insights into identity, belonging, soul-connection and afterlife • How the NDE changed her purpose and worldview • The long-term transformation that followed her return If you're curious about NDEs, afterlife experiences, spiritual awakening, and what happens when we die, this conversation will deeply move you. ___________________

What does it take to build a data strategy that empowers people—rather than overwhelms them? Live from AU Nashville, BIM governance leader Kirsty Hogg unpacks how to build a useful data strategy (not a data swamp), keep feedback lightweight in ACC, and prepare your teams for AI, machine learning, and cloud-first workflows. We dig into lessons-learned capture, lakehouse fundamentals, picking low-friction tools (Ideate, File Sync), and why cultural safety (“it's OK to learn fast”) turns skeptics into champions. Plus: what seamless interoperability should look like—and how to inch toward it today. You'll learn: How to frame questions before filling your data lake Practical ways to capture “lessons learned” via ACC issues Change management that actually sticks (and who should be the messenger) Why fewer tools = faster wins—and where AI truly fits next A realistic path toward interoperability and Forma-era workflows MEET OUR GUEST Kirsty Hogg is a BIM Governance Lead based in London, overseeing software strategy, standards, and workflows for a global engineering consultancy. She focuses on practical data governance, cloud-first delivery, and scalable processes that make ACC, Ideate, and automation work for real project teams. Kirsty champions “data with intention,” helping organizations capture the right signals for analytics and AI—while building a culture where learning fast beats perfection. TODD TAKES Data With Intention, Not Accumulation Start with the questions, then collect the data. Keep data feedback capture lightweight (e.g., “lessons learned” via simple ACC issues), make it interoperable, and build your data lake to serve decisions—not to hoard. Machine learning comes after you've curated useful, consistent signals. Make It Safe to Learn Fast Change sticks when teams are allowed to “do it wrong” once to see why the better path matters. Spread champions beyond BIM—let others carry the message so the right people hear the “what's in it for me.” The right messenger accelerates adoption. Fewer Tools, Faster Wins Choose tools with a low learning curve and broad utility to cut cognitive load and speed uptake. Automations and smart syncs free people from busywork so they can focus on value. Keep strategy horizons short, stay cloud-first, and design for interoperability as Forma and AI evolve.   More Resources  Thanks for listening!
