Sarah Fox is a lawyer transforming the way people do business. After decades dealing with huge deals in the construction sector, she realised that long, complex and bad contracts were costing time, money, deals and relationships.  Sarah advocates for short, simple contracts starting with just 500 words.  She inspires people across industries to streamline deals and enhance customer relations with contracts that represent their values, embed trust, and keep everyone protected. In this show Sarah will be sharing how speakers can create simpler contracts that can build bigger speaking businesses. What you'll discover: • The real cost of bloated contracts (and who they're really protecting) • What actually counts as a "contract" (yes, even that email thread! • How to price and protect your work, your recordings, and your energy • Why your contract should sound like you — not your solicitor's scary cousin • What red flags to watch for in pre-gig conversations • How your contract can actually accelerate your business (yes, really!) • How Sarah's TEDx moment and Happy Fee rule changed how she does business • The 3 C's every speaker contract should cover — and what to say when someone says "That's a bit pricey, isn't it?" Enjoy! If you've ever said "I'll just send them a quick email" instead of a proper agreement… this episode is for you. It's time to simplify, protect, and sound more like you in every part of your speaking business — including the small print.   If you'd like to watch the video of the episode, you can do that here>>   Guest Information: Website: https://500words.co.uk/  LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/sarahjvfox/  Books & Resources*: Play Big by Tara Mohr Stepping Up as a Motivational Speaker with Joy Marsden - The Speaking Club 055 Speaking Resources: Grab Your From Blank Page to Stage Guide and Nail the Topic for a Client Winning Talk: https://saraharcher.co.uk/newguide-tsc  Want to get better at finding and sharing your stories then check out our FREE Five Day Snackable Story Challenge: https://www.saraharcher.co.uk/challenge  To share your thoughts:                                                   ·   leave a comment below. ·   Share this show on X, Facebook or LinkedIn.

Motivational Speaker and Bestselling Author Kevin Brown is the creator of The Hero Effect, a simple philosophy that separates world-class organizations and high-performance people from everybody else. Top 3 Value Bombs 1. Most of us are unwilling to call ourselves heroes because of humility. The truth is, being a hero doesn't involve doing big things. It's about doing everything you do in a way that serves other people - and to take the storyline and stop accepting what the world is trying to give you. 2. Don't play victim. Don't live in the past. Don't setup camp on where you've been. Focus on where you're going. That's when you can release your gifts to the world. 3. Nobody on this planet was put here to be ordinary. We are created with talents and abilities as unique as our fingerprints. We were put here to use those gifts in service of others.

After divorce, a shrinking income, and a dream job that didn't add up, Linda Grizely hit a wall. All because she couldn't check one box: “bachelor's degree.” What came next was bold: eleven classes across four schools, a dual major at 49, and a complete mindset shift about worth, work, and money.Today, Linda is a Motivational Speaker, Financial Educator, and Realist with a Heart who helps women who feel behind, financially or emotionally, reconnect with their self-worth and start making money decisions that truly reflect who they are and what they want.We talk about the money scripts we inherit without realizing it how growing up lower middle class, teen motherhood, and “survival budgeting” shaped Linda's early beliefs. A leadership mastermind cracked open those patterns and inspired her “lid” story: a metaphor for the self-imposed limits that keep so many of us under-earning and under-saving.Linda shares practical ways to bring calm and clarity to your finances:How to build a liquid emergency fund that actually worksWhy 3–6 months of expenses is your safety net, not a cageThe “Me Money” method that gives guilt-free permission to spend intentionallyThe real reason couples argue about money—and how to stopWe also explore money personalities, spender, saver, avoider, risk taker, security seeker and how to design systems that align with your real behaviour, not some spreadsheet ideal.But beyond the tactics, this episode is about reclaiming your value. Linda shares the exact moment she stopped accepting less and started asking for more, and how the right credentials can open doors to opportunity and confidence. Her coaching now empowers women to build financial literacy and self-trust without shame, jargon, or judgment.Let's enjoy her story!https://www.lindagriz.com/Send BEHAS a text.Support the showTo Share - Connect & Relate: Share Your Thoughts and Shape the Show!

The conversation touched upon the human body's connection to universal energy, the significance of tuning forks in energetic healing, and the concept of transitioning from 3D to 5D consciousness. David emphasized the importance of working towards breakthrough rather than merely fixing what's breaking down and provides insight into how vibrations and frequencies can facilitate deep spiritual and physical healing.

(13:24) • My determination was a lot higher than probably 80-85% of the recruits. (16:00) • As a Royal Marine, it was a reality check. All of the sudden, the movies and all that goes out the window, and reality kicks in. (17:11) • Where the Hilos landed, there was no cover, and they left us there. It was as flat as a pool table. We couldn't go back; we couldn't go left or right; so the only thing we could do was a full frontal assault on this compound.  [We] Just showed the enemy what we're made of. (32:51) • [As we broke through a door] They just opened fire on the first team that went through the entryway, and I happened to take a round through the neck that hit me square in the spinal cord, and that was me – lights out. (44:55) • The next thing I remember was waking up probably about 3 months later. (46:46) • [My recovery was] hell on earth, man. (46:57) • You're fighting for your survival, fighting for your life, using everything you're got, just to not give in. (47:24) • They couldn't do an MRI because of the metal that was still stuck in my neck. (49:16) • I spent 12 months on my back, staring at the roof. (56:32)  • I'm not be the man to let the team down let the legacy of who we are down. I'm not gonna be that soldier. (57:38) • I think my brothers in arms – the support I got from them – is what probably got me through it. (59:05) • I just crossed a point where I decided I'm gonna make the best of it.  (59:40) • It's inspired the next generation of Special Forces Operators to go “Damn, look what these guys have done. Look at that legacy they left behind.“ (62:02) • I lost all my physical capabilities, but I still have my mind. (62:12) • I put all my energy, all my focus into education. (64:57) • [Marcus] That SF attitude they put inside of us when we get in there is a game changer. (66:20) • A big part of being in the SF world is being brave, and facing challenges. (69:26) • Living life to the max. That positivity, spinning that into people – is what the brand is all about.)  (70:33) • Live life to your fullest, because you never know when it's gonna be taken away.
