What do you get when you cross a behavioral psychologist with significant experience in the business world? You get the insightful mind and wisdom of Richard Reid.   Richard knows that commanding attention and influence while leading through change is more difficult than ever. He shares that the mind and thought processes of an employee today have more dynamic needs than even a decade ago. This is why he wrote Charisma Unlocked: Science and Strategy behind Presence, Persuasion and Authentic Leadership.   We thoroughly enjoyed this conversation as we think any tip and wisdom that an executive leader can gain that will make their business run smoother. Any increase in profitability while elevating employee satisfaction is a win.   Here are highlights: -Emotional Intelligence: Self-awareness, particularly in managing stress and improving communication, is critical as the foundation for a leader that others are willing to follow.   -Charisma in Modern Leadership: Richard discusses the importance of charisma in leadership, emphasizing that it's about connecting with people as individuals and making them feel heard. He explains that modern leadership involves facilitating others, unlocking their potential, and aligning organizational goals with employees' hopes and fears.   -Psychological Safety in Organizations: The importance of creating an environment where people feel safe to express themselves, offer different ideas, and speak up when struggling was emphasized. Richard notes that many well-intentioned leaders struggle with authenticity and humility, often unintentionally sending mixed messages about psychological safety.   -Constructive Conversations: Allow people to bring fresh ideas, challenge prevailing thoughts constructively, and speak up when employees and projects are struggling. He advises leaders to set intentions before conversations, slow down interactions to create space for reflection, and focus on collaboration rather than talking at each other.   -Wellbeing and Mental Health Advocacy: Richard is a lifelong promoter of wellbeing and that CEO's need to make considerations for team members' mental health in the workplace. This care will better equip individuals to navigate and achieve goals and overcome business challenges.     About the guest: Richard Reid is a highly experienced psychologist, coach, and wellbeing consultant with over 20 years of expertise.

In this episode of the Impostor Syndrome Files, we talk about gravitas. Gravitas is one of those words we use but rarely define. We know it when we see it but it's tough to pin down. This week, I'm talking with Richard Reid, a psychologist and coach, about the connection between gravitas and confidence. We sometimes think of gravitas as an innate trait when, in actuality, you can develop it. Here we talk about what gravitas looks like, why it matters and how to get there.About My GuestRichard has over twenty years of experience as a psychologist and coach.

On the morning of July 7th, 2005, London awoke to what many assumed would be a regular Thursday. But as rush hour gripped the capital, four coordinated explosions tore through the heart of the city's public transport network. Three bombs detonated almost simultaneously on packed London Underground trains, followed shortly after by a fourth on a red double-decker bus in Tavistock Square. The result was catastrophic. 52 innocent lives lost, over 700 injured, and an entire nation left shaken to its core.In this sobering episode, Tom, Ben & Dan delve into the horrifying events of that day: examining the attackers' backgrounds, how MI5 came terrifyingly close to intercepting the plot, and the immense human cost of homegrown extremism. From tales of heroic survivors to the lasting legacy of Britain's worst-ever terrorist attack, this is a story of chaos, courage, and a city that refused to be broken.This episode contains distressing themes, but it's a story that must be told.

Peter from Hearts of Oak joins James Harvey to unpack politics, immigration, and social issues, starting with a sharp critique of Hope Not Hate's “State of Hate” report, which he calls a networking tool mislabeling activists like himself. He reveals his group, Students Against Tyranny, has shifted to offline activism to rally youth discreetly, linking protests against policies like 15-minute cities to anti-establishment fervor. Harvey weighs in on Trump's divisive congressional address and ties to Andrew Tate, defends Tommy Robinson's imprisonment as state overreach, and slams the UK's lenient justice system amid immigration-driven crime. He critiques lowered police standards, politically correct laws favoring certain communities, and U.S.-UK Ukraine involvement, urging listeners to prioritize national issues and resist societal complacency in this candid, hour-long discussion.

Rejoice, for I bring thee tidings of great schadenfreude: Elon Musk hath lost a whole Bill Gates. 1. He Did This To Himself Tesla's stock hath crashed over 40% since December, wiping out $111 billion of Elon's fortune. Turns out, investors don't love it when a CEO ditches his own company to spend his days boosting Nazis and banning journalists. And who smote him most? His best bro Don-old. Trump's new tariffs on China, Canada, and Mexico are wrecking Tesla's supply chains, and the stock market took one look and said nah. Funny how licking fascist boots always ends in you getting your face stomped. Yet despite losing more money than the entire net worth of Bill Gates, Musk remains the world's richest idiot. Will he learn? Nay. He shall keep wreaking havoc and pretending he isn't the dumbest rich guy alive.   Spotted on the London Underground. 2.

Summary In this solo episode of the Ambitious Lifestyle Business podcast, business book author John Lamerton discusses the influence of Rory Sutherland, particularly his book 'Alchemy', which highlights the importance of psycho-logical solutions in addressing problems that seem to require logical fixes. John illustrates this with examples from the London Underground and even proposes a rebranding of Inheritance Tax to enhance public perception and engagement. He shows how small businesses can adopt these psycho-logical insights to improve customer experience and operational efficiency.

Talk 2   School, Sunday School, & Salvation Welcome to Talk 2 in our new series where I'm reflecting on my how the Lord has blessed my life. Today I'll be talking about my time at Primary School, at Sunday School, and how I learnt at the age of eight how to be saved.   Suttons Lane County Primary School My first school was situated on Suttons Lane, quite close to Hornchurch aerodrome. On the edge of town, to the south it had open views of the fairly flat countryside on the northern side of the River Thames. It was less than a ten-minute walk from my house.   From an early age I was able to walk to school unattended as there were no roads to cross thanks to ‘the cinder track', a footpath that ran along the edge of what we called ‘the farmer's field' where we would see horses pulling a plough to prepare the soil for the potatoes that were grown there.   Every day at school began with the teacher marking the register followed by assembly in the school hall where we sang a hymn, said the Lord's Prayer together, and listened to any announcements the headmaster had to give us. I don't know how many of our teachers were practising Christians, but the emphasis in assembly was distinctly Christian, as was the teaching in the weekly Scripture – later to be called Religious Education – lessons we had in class.   In those days it was a legal requirement for all schools to include Scripture on the curriculum and for each day to begin with an act of Christian worship. So the Christian teaching I received at home and at Sunday School was reinforced by what went on at school. The truth of the Christian message was still widely assumed, even if church attendance had greatly diminished as a result of the war. How different things are today!   I can see with hindsight that, although I didn't realise it at the time, one of the reasons I enjoyed school was that there was no conflict between what I was taught at home and what I was taught at school.   And, of course, I enjoyed it too because, unlike some schools today that have misguidedly sold off their playing fields for commercial purposes, our school shared a playing field with the adjacent secondary school, where we played cricket and football, both of which were probably my favourite activities.   I played for the school team at both cricket and football, the love of which I inherited from my father who on Saturdays was an active player in both. I loved going to watch him play for the Elm Park Football Club and the Cranham Cricket Club.   He once told me he thought that the boys in the secondary school where he taught paid more attention to his Scripture lessons because he also taught them to play football. He was a qualified F.A. Coach, and, incidentally, also told me that one of the boys he had coached played in the England team that won the World Cup in 1966. I still have a box full of medals he won for cricket, football, snooker, and tennis. He was seven times the champion of the Elm Park Lawn Tennis Club.   But I think I also enjoyed school because I was good at my lessons. As I've already mentioned, I started school at the age of 4 in September 1943. Educationally I had the distinct advantage that my father was a teacher and had taught me to read and write before I went to school, and so by the time I was 7 my parents were told that I had a reading age of 12.   In saying this I hope I don't give the impression that I'm boasting. I learnt long ago that true humility is not a matter of pretending that you don't really have any talents or gifts, but acknowledging that what you do have comes from God, and that all the credit is his and not ours. If I have a good brain, it is God who gave me that brain, and I have no right to boast about my academic achievements. But that does not mean that I may not mention them! As God said to Jeremiah:   Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, before you were born I set you apart; I appointed you as a prophet to the nations (Jeremiah 1:5).   Before we were born, God had a purpose for each one of us, and he created us with the abilities we would need to fulfil that purpose.  It's our decision as to whether we fulfil that purpose or not. So I thank God for the good brain he gave me and for parents who encouraged me to use it.   And if I tell you that every year I attended that school I came top of the class, you'll understand that my reason for doing so is to show how, without my realising it, he was guiding me onto a pathway where academic achievement would be an essential part of the work that he had planned for me to do.   Sunday School and Church But school was not the only place I was learning. Probably the most influential source in my education was what my parents taught me at home. But more of that in a moment. I was also learning at Sunday School and at other church related activities like Lifeboys (the name then given to the junior section of the Boys' Brigade).   My first reaction to Sunday School was that I didn't like it! I was only 4 and I'm grateful to my parents that when I told them so they did not force me to go. A little later they suggested very gently that I might like to try it again, and this time I enjoyed it. Because of the wisdom they showed in this matter, I always knew that attendance at Sunday School or Church was to be my decision. No one could ever say that I only went because my parents made me go.   And so I went of my own free will, and year after year was given a book as a prize for good attendance. The annual Sunday School Prize Giving Sunday was a big event, and many of the parents who were not church-goers came to see their children receive their prizes.   Sunday School, which in most churches took place in the afternoon, was a big thing in the 1940s and 1950s. Even parents who did not come to church wanted their children to be taught about the Bible – or they were just glad to get a break from the kids on a Sunday afternoon! We were told that our church had the largest Sunday School in Essex with up to 400 children attending each Sunday. My mother was a Sunday School teacher and my father taught the teenage Bible Class, but more of that in the next talk.   Unlike most of the children who attended Sunday School, I also attended church. I think my first experience of church was travelling on a Sunday evening up to London to attend the church where my parents had attended before the war. We travelled on the London Underground railway on the District Line between Elm Park and Bromley stations, and I took an instant dislike to London because at that time much of that area was damaged, dirty, and quite smelly.   The Tab which formerly, I was told, had up to a thousand in its congregation, had been bombed in the war and, as far as I know was never rebuilt. Many of the people's houses had been destroyed and, rather like my parents, they had moved away from the East End of London. Consequently the meetings I went to as a young child with my parents were attended by at most a few dozen people and took place in the upstairs room of a pub, which I seem to remember was called The Five Bells.   The meetings weren't really suitable for children, and I didn't really enjoy the fuss that all the adults made of me. One thing I did like was the minister, Mr Tildsley, referring to me as King David and perhaps that sparked in my young heart a desire to copy my namesake and achieve great victories for God.   Fortunately, as far as I was concerned, my parents soon decided that it was time to settle into a church that was nearer to where they were now living, so we started attending Elm Park Baptist which was a relatively new church as most of the houses in the area, like ours, had only been constructed in the mid to late 1930s.   It was a warm friendly church with lots of activities for children and young people and, although I couldn't understand all that the minister said in his sermons on Sunday evenings, it's clear, looking back on it, that it was all influencing my mind in the right direction, leading me ultimately in my teens to give my life to Jesus. But that's a subject for our next talk. However, before we get there, it's important that I tell you how, at the age of 8, I came to understand how to be sure I would go the Heaven when I die.   The way of salvation I remember how, at the age of 8, I was sitting on my father's knee when I asked him,   Daddy, how good do you have to be to go to Heaven?      I think the question was on my mind because of something that was called David's Good Boy Chart. This was a chart my father had made rather like a calendar with a space for each day for him to stick on it a coloured sun or moon or star, depending on how my behaviour had been that day.   I think he had made it because my mother had been having some problems with me during the day while he was at work. When he got home, my mother would tell him how I had behaved that day and an appropriate sticker would be applied to the chart. If I'd been good, it would be a sun, not so good, a moon, and so on.   I think I must have been wondering how many suns I would need if I wanted to go to Heaven! My father explained that it isn't a question of how good we are, because none of us is good enough to go to heaven. That's why Jesus came to die on the cross to take the punishment for our sins so that all who believe in him will have everlasting life.   Then he asked, Do you believe that, David?   I replied, Yes, of course I do. And why do you believe it? asked my father. Because you have told me, I said. That's a good reason, he said, but one day you will come to believe it for yourself.   That's the first time I can remember that I was consciously aware of the truth of the gospel. I suppose that, like many who have been brought up in a Christian home, I can't put a date on when I first believed. It feels as though I have always believed. I cannot remember a time when I did not believe.   I used to be concerned about this, especially when so many Christians can remember a specific date. But then I heard an illustration that was very helpful. I never forgot, and will never forget, the date when Eileen and I married. But even if one year I had forgotten it, I would never have forgotten that I was married and who I was married to!   The point of the illustration is this. The date that my married relationship with Eileen started was relatively unimportant compared with our relationship throughout our married lives. The same applies to our relationship with Jesus. What matters is not when our relationship started, but whether I am in relationship with him now. Am I trusting him now for the forgiveness of my sins and my home in heaven? And if I am, then the exact date it all started is relatively unimportant.   So I cannot remember an exact date when I first believed but I can remember the day when I decided to give my life to Christ. And again, it was through my father that I came to that decision. But we'll come to that in a later talk.

Special Edition: London, England Airports   In this episode, the FAQ is: What are some of the biggest changes for travel in 2025?   Today's Destination is: London Airports   Today's Misstep- Wearing the wrong shoes   Travel Advice: When buying an airline ticket, pause.   FAQ: What are some of the biggest changes for travel in 2025? Expect more opportunities for local immersion, where you can experience the daily life of local communities through homestays, service projects, and interactive cultural programs for seniors. Solo female travel is on the rise, with women comprising 71% of solo travelers. Many travel companies now offer solo-friendly options, such as cruises without single supplements and women-only trips to destinations like Saudi Arabia, where my parents almost moved in 1980, when it was very different for women. Decision Fatigue The solo traveler is solely responsible for all decisions, from choosing accommodations and dining spots to navigating routes. This can lead to decision fatigue and frustration and isolation in challenging situations. Lack of Immediate Support Solo travelers may not have immediate support in moments of illness or emergencies. Reliance on strangers for help can be daunting, and having communication devices like a satellite communicator is crucial1. Cultural and Language Barriers Solo female travelers may encounter cultural and language barriers, leading to uncomfortable situations. Respecting local traditions, dress codes, and learning basic phrases in the local language can help mitigate these challenges. Loneliness Solo travel can sometimes lead to feelings of loneliness. To combat this, travelers can seek social gatherings, connect with fellow travelers, or engage in group tours and activities. Today's Special Episode: London, England Airports London's major airports each have distinct features catering to different traveler needs. Here's a rundown on each and some important aspects for solo female travelers over 50: First, the Best Overall Recommendations for Solo Female Travelers Over 50 Best for On-Time Flights: London City Airport (LCY) Best for Service: Heathrow Airport (LHR) Best for Pricing: Stansted (STN) or Luton (LTN) Best Overall Experience: Heathrow (LHR) (for amenities and comfort) or Gatwick (LGW) (for balance between cost and comfort) 1.

Stansted Airport (STN) Location: North East of London, about 40 miles from Central London. Identity: A hub for budget airlines that is popular for European flights. Pros: Affordability, a variety of low-cost airlines, and straightforward access to London via train. I flew here from Milan for $20 as long as I had a personal item, not a carry-on. It was Ryan Air. I flew out a week later to Edinburgh, but that was a bit of a crazy crowded airport with people all over trying to wait until their flights. Yes, it was very crowded. Ratings: On-Time: Generally decent but can experience delays due to high traffic on budget flights. Service: Basic but sufficient; less luxurious than Heathrow or Gatwick. Pricing: Most competitive, particularly for European destinations. Overall Experience: Ideal for those seeking low-cost travel and are comfortable with basic amenities. 5. Luton Airport (LTN) Location: North of London, about 30 miles from Central London. Identity: Budget-friendly with numerous low-cost airlines. Pros: Good for low-cost European flights, straightforward access to London via trains. Considerations: It is generally busy, with fewer service amenities; it is best for budget-minded travelers who don't mind fewer frills. Ratings: On-Time: Average, with some delays during peak times. Service: Basic but functional. Pricing: Low-cost options make it appealing for budget travelers. Overall Experience: Suitable for budget-conscious solo travelers willing to trade amenities for savings.    Today's Misstep: Wearing the wrong shoes  Talk about the wrong step. I had the wrong shoes. First, I had sandals with heels, and it was really cold, so I should have worn something warmer with socks.  Then I got blisters because the sandals rubbed my foot. Don't wear stylish shoes just for looks when you should wear something more sensible and comfortable. Your feet are here for life, and anyone who judges your choice of footwear can pound sand. Let them. Today's Travel Advice- When buying an airline ticket, pause. Today's airline tickets are almost all self-serve. You may buy them infrequently, so you may not notice all of the changes that are happening when you buy a ticket. Before you click the button, be sure you check everything. Do you have the correct dates? Are you ok with the luggage choices? Did you spell your name correctly? Is there a better price directly with the airline? Is it refundable? Do you need insurance or not? Can you use your miles or credits instead of cash? It's becoming more challenging to purchase your ticket, so practice before you buy. You may save hundreds of dollars if you do.

Shortly after Mike Stock left PWL in 1993, he purchased a building to house a brand-new studio complex and record label, Love This, and reunited with Matt Aitken to resume their songwriting and production work together. Although, over the next few years, the duo would release many more cover versions than original songs, having success with the likes of Nicki French, Jocelyn Brown & Kym Mazelle, John Alford, Newton (in Australia) and Robson & Jerome. Mike Stock joins us for one final time to recap the highlights from the Love This era and give his rationale for the emphasis on remakes, He also discusses working with Simon Cowell on quite a few projects, including the theme to kids' TV show Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers and how the problems plaguing Love This, such as a dispute with the London Underground over rail work that compromised his studios and issues surrounding the release of "Santa Maria" by Tatjana, resulted in the label being shut in 1997. Mike goes on to talk about some of the work he's done since, such as tracks by pop acts Scooch and Girls@Play, and what he would like his overall musical legacy to be. Matt Aitken, Miriam Stockley and Julian Gingell also feature to share their memories of this era. Support the showSubscribe for bonus material at chartbeats.com.au/sawInstagram: @chartbeatsauThreads: @chartbeatsau, @matthew_denby360Bluesky: @chartbeatsau, @matthewdenby.bsky.socialFacebook: Chart Beats: A Journey Through PopEmail: chartbeats.au@gmail.com

Transport for London describe what plans they have for making the London Underground system safer for blind and partially sighted passengers. This follows a recent incident involving Lord Blunkett falling between a train and the platform edge. Nick Dent, TfL's Director of Customer Operations, describes their plans and how quickly they can be implemented. Elaine Macgougan, from Belfast, describes the notion of feeling like she is having to 'come out twice' to the people she meets. Firstly as visually impaired and then as a member of the LGBTQ+ community.Presenter: Peter White Producer: Beth Hemmings Production Coordinator: David Baguley Website image description: Peter White sits smiling in the centre of the image and he is wearing a dark green jumper. Above Peter's head is the BBC logo (three separate white squares house each of the three letters). Bottom centre and overlaying the image are the words "In Touch" and the Radio 4 logo (the word ‘radio' in a bold white font, with the number 4 inside of a white circle). The background is a bright mid-blue with two rectangles angled diagonally to the right. Both are behind Peter, one is a darker blue and the other is a lighter blue.

Building on his groundbreaking exploration of church-practice disparities in a previous episode, Glenn Bleakney returns with an in-depth analysis of the critical gaps plaguing modern churches. Taking inspiration from the London Underground's famous "Mind the Gap" warning, this episode serves as both a diagnosis and a roadmap for authentic church transformation.

Glenn Bleakney tackles the critical disconnects between what churches say and what they actually do. Drawing from the familiar "Mind the Gap" warning of the London Underground, this episode explores five crucial areas where modern churches need to bridge the gap between their aspirational statements and institutional realities.Join our free community at KingdomReformation.org for exclusive content, resources, and deeper discussions.

Chapter Markings0:11 - The dirtiest cinema seats have around 3,000 colonies of bacteria living on it?4:12 - Cleaning theatre seats4:41 - Disgusting public seatingSummaryIn this episode of the Break From The Grind podcast, Jason and Mindy delve into the surprising levels of bacteria found in public spaces, particularly focusing on cinema seats and the London Underground. They discuss the cleaning practices of these public areas, the types of bacteria present, and the implications for public health. The conversation highlights the importance of hygiene awareness while also addressing the reality of living in a world filled with germs.Linkshttps://www.breakfromthegrind.com/Visit our Stores: https://www.redbubble.com/people/bftg/shophttps://www.teepublic.com/stores/lowtreestudiosVideo https://rumble.com/c/c-6686850https://www.youtube.com/@breakfromthegrindhttps://www.youtube.com/@BFTG-Inspiration DetailsThe London Underground or Tube is the most popular form of travel in the English capital, carrying up to five million passenger journeys everyday, according to Transport for London (TfL).The London Underground is often called the Tube because of the shape of the tunnels. The London Underground is one of the oldest metro systems in the world, opening in 1863. When the Central Line Railway opened in 1900, it was called the Twopenny Tube, referencing the price of a ticket. The nickname has stuck ever since!A Transport for London spokesperson has since stated that the actions in the video in question was dangerous to both passengers and the cleaners involved.They said: "Our cleaning schedule for Tube trains consists of two different levels of cleaning: pre-service cleans (daily), and a deep clean of the interior and exterior of the train around every 28 days.“All floors and surfaces are cleaned daily on every train as part of the pre-service clean. Seats are inspected and cleaned as required during this pre-service clean, with further cleaning as part of the deep clean.”There's an average of 1,864 colonies of bacteria on a single cinema seat. Comparing this to the average toilet seat, which they found around 135 colonies on average.“Obviously she mentions, the cleanliness of the seats will vary across different cinemas, seat styles and fabrics. Some of the dirtiest cinema seat they tested had around 3,000 colonies of bacteria living on it,” they continued. On the other hand, they said the cleanest cinema seat had just 80 colonies of bacteria, which is around 55 times less than the average toilet seat.

In 1869, a crew secretly dug a tunnel under Broadway in Manhattan. That tunnel became a huge attraction that proved scientific potential, supporting Civil War orphans, and eventually fell into disrepair.
