Welling United are four games without defeat, but assistant boss Kevin Watson reveals to friend of the show Nigel Jones the challenges he and boss Rod Stringer are facing as the Wings look to move away from trouble and consolidate in mid-table this season. Cray Wanderers became the first side to stop Dover scoring in a league game this season, and their boss Neil Smith was thrilled after a third successive 1-0 win, praising his new signings and revellng in their current form. Several derbies are on the horizon for Boxing Day, and probably few bigger than the all-Thanet clash at Hartsdown Park - and Margate boss Ben Greenhalgh looks ahead to the visit of Ramsgate and discusses his side's excellent run of form and hopes for the rest of the season. We've got all the rest of the news from across the county and all the usual chat and nonsense, which mainly includes a badly-behaved dog... I blame the owner, in truth... Hosted on Acast.

Resnična zgodba znamenitega berlinskega bordela, v katerem so nacisti s pomočjo mikrofonov in izurjenih prostitutk vohunili celo za predstavniki lastnega režima, prihaja izpod peresa zgodovinarjev in novinarjev Nigela Jonesa, Ursa Brunnerja in Julie SchrammelKo pomislimo na nacistični režim, nam je seveda jasno, da ta grozodejstev ni zagrešil le nad judi in drugimi narodnostmi, ki so se znašle pod nemško okupacijo ali na bojiščih, ampak je moral biti tovrsten totalitarni sistem tudi močno notranje represiven in poln vohunjenja in nadzora lastnega prebivalstva. Verjetno pa naša domišljija ne seže tako daleč, da bi si predstavljali, kako nacisti v prisluškovalno središče spremenijo celo elitni bordel v Berlinu, v katerem skriti mikrofoni in izurjene dame vohunijo tudi za visokimi predstavniki nacističnega režima. Sicer resnično zgodbo, ki pa je zavita v meglico mitov in ugank, skuša razvozlati tudi knjiga Salon Kitty: seksualna zgodovina tretjega rajha, ki je nedavno izšla pri založbi Beletrina. Kakšna je zgodba ekskluzivnega bordela in zgodovinski kontekst, v katerem se odvija, so v zelo poljudni in berljivo oblikovani knjigi opisali zgodovinarji in novinarji Nigel Jones, Urs Brunner in Julia Schrammel, za tokratno Sobotno branje pa nam bo nekaj utrinkov iz dela pomagala predstaviti dr. Irena Selišnik z Oddelka za zgodovino ljubljanske Filozofske fakultete. Oddajo je pripravila Alja Zore.

Nigel Jones, Sales and Marketing Director at Practice plan, is joined by John Renshaw, Director at Oral Care Consulting and former BDA Chair, to look back at the history of NHS dentistry and discuss what the future might hold.

Hythe Town have a new manager, and CEO Gary Johnson explains why Nick Davis was the right man to replace Sammy Moore after his surprise early-season exit and discusses the great strides the Cannons are making since the arrival of Matt Smith as chairman. Cray Valley were the victors in the Cray derby, pooping on Cray Wanderers' party with a win in the first game at their new stadium - Millers boss Steve McKimm reflects on that win and their start to the season. There's all the rest of the news from across the county, including Dover's 8-0 win (where's Matt when you need him?!), strong starts for some of our other sides and not so much for others, the brilliance of the SCEFL and loads, loads more.

My guest is author and coach Nigel Jones who shares his own story as well as some inspiration and great advice! In this episode:- Nigel started drinking daily at 18, struggled to quit for 36 years. He found success with a mindset shift, declaring himself a non-drinker from day one. We talked more about this identity shift during our first podcast interview which you can listen to here Many of our members have found Nigel's identity shift to being a "non drinker" helpful  Rather than clocking up the sober days they declare themselves a non drinker from day one Apart from deciding that he was a non drinker Nigels strategies for quitting alcohol included Replacing drinking with new habits like walking. His "9 KM before 9 AM" walking routine led to a significant physical and mental transformation. Creating new neural pathways through consistent healthy habits. I shared my own habit change of going on a long walk every evening at 6pm which was my witching hour We both agreed on the stength of peer pressure to drink As drinkers we find ourselves in an alcohol drinkers tribe (ADT as Nigel calls it) When we decide to quit we need to find a new Tribe I went through this myself and I always say that recovery is about “finding your people” If you think Tribe Sober might be your people then go to tribesober.com and hit the membership tab Nigels benefits of sobriety included: Improved physical health, mental clarity, and spiritual well-being. Increased time and energy for personal development and learning – for example he Qualified in Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP) and he's currently studying Hypnotherapy. Nigel's working on a New Book called Reroot Yourself His book focuses on the healing power of nature. Concepts like forest bathing (Shinrin Yoku) and the benefits of being in nature. Nigel highlighted the scientific evidence for the mental and physical benefits of nature exposure. He currently takes these concepts into corporates where he is observing a shift in attitudes towards mental health Nigels Advice for people wanting to quit… He advocates reading quitlit and listening to podcasts Also joining a new tribe for support and encouragement – a tribe to replace your drinking tribe I often say that to new members – you don't even have to quit drinking when you join Tribe Sober Just be curious, listen and learn.. and you'll get inspired to make a change As Nigel says curiosity can be a catalyst for change  Nigel is a coach and runs workshops in corpoprates Find out more about Nigel via his website 9kmby9am.com More info Subscription membership for Tribe Sober join up HERE To access our website click HERE If you would like a free copy of our "Annual Tracker" or our e-book "66 Days to Sobriety" please email janet@tribesober.com If you would like to come to our Saturday afternoon Zoom Cafe as a guest and meet our community just email janet@tribesober.com Episode Sponsor           This episode is sponsored by the Tribe Sober Membership Program.             If you want to change your relationship with alcohol then  sign up today           Read more about our program and subscribe HERE Help us to spread the word!

We are back after our week off and there's loads to dissect after a massive couple of weeks on and off the pitch! Radio Wings' Nigel Jones joins us to discuss the news that Welling United are set to move for a groundshare at Tonbridge Angels while work goes on at Park View Road, looking at what this all means for the club and their fans, who are facing a 55-mile round trip to home games. Sittingbourne had a much longer trip than that on Tuesday night, but it was a wasted one as their clash at Littlehampton was called off 40 minutes before the start - boss Ryan Maxwell discusses that call off, his solution to prevent these from happening and the push for promotion from the Isthmian South East. It's mighty tight at the top of the SCEFL and we hear from two of the promotion contenders - Bearsted boss Kev Stevens talks about their growth this season and the advantage of having a player with the X Factor, while Corinthian boss Michael Golding discusses their good form and how he's got his enjoyment for the game back. We reflect on Deal's FA Vase progress and the rest of the news and moves from across the county, plus there's some of the usual chat and nonsense, including the Banana Sandwich crew, trigger warnings, Victoria Sponge and loads more besides.

  This week we're celebrating our 200th podcast episode by taking you through our Top Twelve podcasts – the episodes which have had the most downloads since we started the podcast back in 2020  There's a clip from each podcast as well as the link to the whole episode Or if you're really organised you can even make them into a playlist! Numbers 10,11 & 12 So coming in with 2,200 downloads each is a trio of ladies who've taught our Tribe so much about how our brains work… Author Dr Loretta Breuning, Neuroscientist Staci Danford and Stanford Psychiatrist Dr Anne Lembke It's important to remember that we are wired for survival rather than happiness and our default state is one of anxiety as we are on the look out for threats.. However once we understand how to trigger our happy brain chemicals we can structure our days to ensure that we get a regular dopamine hit to lift our mood So let's start with Dr Loretta Breuning who helped me unpack the cause of my own “early sobriety blues” Have a listen to the first interview I did with her which was in August 2021  Loretta also did an interview with me very recently to talk about her new book which is called Why Youre Unhappy – that came out on January 20th this year. The next lady in our trio is neuroscientist Staci Danford who taught us about our Lizard brain and how we need to manage it… she even recommended we give it a name.. she calls hers Ernie! That interview came out in August 2021  Here is a link to that episode  The third of our trio is Stanford Psychiatrist Anna Lembke who's written a top selling book called Dopamine Nation It's an awesome book which I highly recommend if you are interested in the science of addiction – her explanation of the Pain/Pleasure balance is superb That episode is called Why we get Addicted and came out in November 2023  Here is the link  Moving away from neuroscience to number 9 in our Top Twelve In that spot we have Sobriety Coach Lori Massicot – Lori is the host of a podcast called 50 and beyond and like me is convinced that ditching the booze is one of the very best things we can do for ourselves as we get older Her episode is called Why we need to ditch the drink in mid life and came out in December 2021 Here is the link  I also did a fun episode with Lori recently when we listed the 15 Signs that you need to take a Break from Booze – signs that Lori and I ignored for far too long! That one was released on January 27th this year Next up we have Melissa Witherspoon – she's the author of a touching memoir called I'm Sober…So Now What? Melissa has relapsed several times and has some invaluable insights into the various stages of relapse She observed that there are 3 stages of relapse Stage 1 is emotional relapse – not even thinking about drinking yet but observing the triggers that seem to be getting more frequent Stay in Stage 1 long enough without taking action and you may move to Stage 2 which is the mental relapse when you start to feel uncomfortable in your skin – and skip activities like connecting with your sober tribe and sticking to your exercise routine – all things that relieve triggers Stay in Stage 2 long enough and you may move to Stage 3 which is physical relapse when you are back in active addiction The advantage of knowing about these 3 stages are that you can keep your radar sharp for Relapse Warning Signs – all different for different people but you need to be able to pick up if you are feeling a bit “off” as Melissa puts it – keeping a journal is a great way of monitoring your emotions For Melissa it shows up in a lack of self care – if she starts neglecting things like her hair washing routine she will see it as a warning sign and tune in to what's going on.. Learn more from Melissa by listening to the episode which came out on September 2022 and is called Relapse Warning Signs Here is the link  So from the three stages of relapse we go to the 4 stages of alcoholism – a very moving share from Tribe member Vanessa Hilton Barber Vanessa divides her drinking career into phases:- the Fun phase (15-19) the Social phase (19-30) the Fairly Desperate phase (30-39) the I Need to Quit phase (39 onwards) This pattern fits pretty well with Ken Middletons theory that 20 years of regular drinking will result in alcohol dependence Here's a link to that episode  Now we're up to our Top Six and at number 6 with 2.3 downloads is the brilliant William Porter William is a lawyer with a passion for the science behind alcohol dependence and has written 2 books Alcohol Explained and Alcohol Explained 2 They're both essential reading and I think the more we understand the damage that alcohol does to our bodies and brains the less likely we are to want to drink it! His episode is called Why we Get Hangxiety and came out in July 2021  Here's the link Next up is another lovely chap who suggests that we identify ourselves as a non drinker…. From Day One He's called Nigel Jones and is the author of a book called Walking Back to Happiness Nigel's professional background is in marketing and PR so he has a deep understanding of the power of messaging and the effect it has on our subconscious mind.  As he says we are in effect being “groomed” by the liquor industry to be loyal and lifelong consumers.  That episode came out in Jan 2023  called How to be a non drinker  Here's the link  Next up is author of the Sober Diaries – a book that has helped so many people ditch the shame and quit drinking. Claire Pooley was a mom of 3 young children when her drinking was at its worst – she was going through 10 bottles of wine a week and knew it had to stop Clare Pooley is a great example of someone who ditched the booze and made her dreams come true She'd always wanted to be a novelist – when she quit drinking she finally had the time and energy to write – the Sober Diaries got her noticed and she was promptly signed by a top publisher to write 3 novels The Authenticity Project was her first and her second book has the inspiring title of How to Age Disgracefully – it will be out in June this year. Have a listen to Clares episode which came out in April 2021 – its called How I Ditched the Drink  Here's the link  I love her life hack of going to bed early, getting up early to cook and freeze the evening meal That's how she avoiding guzzling a bottle of wine as she cooked in the evening! Now its time for the top 3  Coming in at number 3 with 2,500 downloads is the fabulous Ken Middleton – he's the author of Bamboozled which has the awesome subtitle of How Alcohol Makes Fools of us All! Do grab a copy if you haven't yet read it – a brilliant description of how we've been manipulated by Big Alcohol for decades I often quote Ken who says “even if alcohol doesn't destroy us it will limit our potential” and in fact his latest Tribe Sober episode is called “How Alcohol Limits your Potential” – that one was released in April 2023  Here's the link Ken was also one of our guests back in November 2020 when he shared his own story and explained the science behind alcohol dependence – and why drinking regularly for 20 years means you're very likely to develop a “problem” Next up at number 2 is me! With our very first podcast episode which was released in May 2020 to celebrate my 5th Soberversary Here is the link  And finally hogging the number 1 slot with an incredible 3,300 downloads is Australian Sobriety Coach Kathryn Elliott It's called How to Stop Binge Drinking and came out in June 2022 Here is the link Like me Kathryn has had breast cancer which prompted us to do an episode together recently Neither of us realised that our heavy drinking was putting us at risk of breast cancer so we celebrated breast cancer awareness month by having a conversation about it.. Spreading the word that more than 3 glasses of wine A WEEK increased your risk of breast cancer We called it Drink Less for your Breasts and it was released in October 2023 So that's our Top Twelve A big thank you to all our listeners – thanks to you the Tribe Sober podcast has had more than 300,000 downloads which keeps its global ranking in the top 2% of all podcasts Most importantly more than 20% of our members found their way to us via the podcast More Info Subscription membership – you can join up HERE.

Next up for the Chats is a home game with Cray Wanderers, whose start to the season mirrors Chatham - they've lost all five league games but won 5-1 in the FA Cup. Wands boss Neil Smith talks us through the challenges he's faced so far this term and the bright future off the pitch at the club with work in full flow at their new stadium. Erith & Belvedere were knocked out of the Cup - but it took a replay for Hastings to beat Matt Longhurst's side - Nigel Jones spoke to the Deres boss after the initial tie ended all square and he reflected on their improved performance in the goalless draw. We've got all rest of the news and action from across the county, including a rubbish week in the National League South and goals aplenty in the SCEFL, for a change. Plus there's all the usual chat and nonsense, including Gladiators, The Kardashians, Matt's bizarre hatred and loads more besides. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

With Matt still on holiday (maybe we need to assess his pay and conditions), Radio Wings' main man Nigel Jones joins Jon to discuss another fascinating week in non-league football in Kent.

Lydders joint-boss James Rogers discusses his side's performance in the game that was played, their fine start to life in the SCEFL and what tempted him back to management. Deal Town boss Steve King was sent off at the break of that clash on Saturday and he tells us about the bad luck that has hit his side so far this season, what he did after being sent off and his belief that things will turn around. Nigel's Welling have lost all four of their National League South fixtures so far but boss Danny Bloor tells him that the Wings are still upbeat, even though results are not matching performances just yet. We've got all the rest of the news from the FA Cup and the league programme and look ahead to a busy weekend which has some questionable scheduling from the National League. Plus there's lots of the usual chat and nonsense including farts, bad drivers, train passengers, It's a Sin and loads more besides. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Yet little did its clientele – foreign diplomats and high-ranking army officers among them – know that, while they were cavorting with sex workers, they were also being spied upon by Nazi agents.

Most of our Tribe Sober members are quite mature – like me ;-)  They drank socially in their 20's and 30's and it was only later in life that they found themselves becoming dependent. But now and again we come across a younger person and my guest this week is Ellen Newstead who is in her early 30's.  She was smart enough to realise at an early age that alcohol was messing up her life and that she would be happier and healthier without it. Ditching the booze at 30 changes your future - and that's exactly what she did. Ellen's drinking career was short but it was intense and she very sensibly decided to get sober for her wedding – which she did, and she's never looked back.   In this Episode Like many teenagers Ellen was quite shy with self esteem issues and found that alcohol helped her relax and have fun She enjoyed the buzz and was soon chasing that feeling Her first experience of drinking was Alcopops which are between 4 and 8% alcohol If you listened to last week's podcast you will have heard marketing expert Nigel Jones explain how we are groomed by the alcohol industry to drink alcohol from a very early age – groomed to be their lifelong customers Of course alcohol tastes unpleasant to a first time drinker – so they get round this problem by flavoring the alcopops to taste like cola or lemonade Teenage girls are particularly vulnerable to the harmful effects of Alcopops and drinking before the age of 18 will increase the likelihood of dependence as we get older When she thinks back to those years of teenage drinking Ellen realises that for her “fun and alcohol” became so closely linked she couldn't imagine one without the other – a situation that continued for the next decade For many of us alcohol is perceived as the “gateway to fun” and Ellen talked about the “false promise of alcohol” Millions of us bought into this false promise and it took me decades to realise that alcohol is just 10% ethanol and 90% marketing! The fun comes from the people who are with and the environment you are in When Ellen went off to Uni she was expecting to find lots of other enthusiastic drinkers but soon realised that not many of her contempories were in her league – she was the ringleader - always the one wanting to make every social event about drinking! By her second year at Uni she had found a weekend job in a bar and had started to enjoy drinking alone, at work and at home By her early 20's a bottle of wine a night was the norm She went through a period of unemployment when she was 25 and that was when she totally “lost it” as she puts it She treated the pub as a social club and went there every day, she met someone who invited her to his house to continue drinking and sleep over if she needed to She would often drink to oblivion and wake up not quite knowing where she was Ellen would lie to her boyfriend and parents about where she had spent the night Fortunately Ellen got a job which put some kind of structure into her life so her drinking was confined to weekend binge drinking Then came Covid so home drinking became the norm as the pubs were closed As she no longer had access to the pub she recreated her comfort zone in her spare room A home pub – complete with beer mats, signage and bar snacks! The pubs were busy delivering containers of alcohol people's homes so the drinking could continue in spite of lockdown As the UK gradually opened up again drinking was allowed in outside in beer gardens Ellen was so excited by this development that she drank to blackout the first 3 times she went to the pub! In spite of this she maintains she wasn't physically addicted – her addiction was more psychological If you listen to Tribe Sober podcast episode 48 you can hear Molly Watts explaining why only 10% of dependent drinkers are physically addicted – for the rest of us its psychological Ellen began to hover around rock bottom – she lost her wallet, she lost a weekend, she was refused service in a bar… More importantly though she was beginning to lose patience with the chaos that alcohol was creating in her life – the constant threat of blackout or doing something stupid was wearing her down She was coming to the conclusion that alcohol was taking away an awful lot more than it was delivering After three boozy weekends which she describes as “hideous” she decided to quit completely She didn't even contemplate moderation so unlike many of us she didn't have to waste years in the moderation trap When she decided to quit she was 30 years old with a wedding coming up She told her friends and family and the fact that nobody questioned her decision would indicate that they realised that Ellen had a drinking problem She'd been scrolling IG and was excited to find a vibrant, diverse community with lives like hers but all the better for not including booze She did a few sober stretches and started to sample the benefits of sobriety She found a sober role model in Millie Gooch – Millie is the same age as Ellen and explained how to navigate festivals and bottomless brunches without alcohol She didn't even bother to wait for the “perfect date” when she had no plans – after all she always had plans She was fully aware that there is never a perfect time to stop drinking and that she had to do it now! Ellen began to work on her mindset She treated every event as a challenge and rather than saying “I can't” she started to say “what if I try?” She started to realise that fun was more about who she was with and what she was doing She started to see through the false promise of alcohol She started to question various aspects of her drinking and began to see a pointlessness in it Ellen was sober for her wedding and honeymoon and remembers every wonderful moment You can follow her on IG @thesobercrow – I'll put the link in the shownotes   More Info Subscription membership – you can join up HERE.

  Nigel Jones is the founder of “9 kilometres before 9am” which is what he's been doing ever since he decided to quit drinking. He's a sobriety coach and has written a book called Walking Back to Happiness which is a lovely title and describes the feeling we get as we begin to thrive in our sobriety. Nigel's professional background is in marketing and PR so he has a deep understanding of the power of messaging and the effect it has on our subconscious mind.  As he says we are in effect being “groomed” by the liquor industry to be loyal and lifelong consumers. In this Episode Nigel's first drink strong cider at an early age – obviously it tasted disgusting to him and he was very sick – which made us reflect on the craziness of forcing ourselves to drink something we hate just so that we can acquire a test for it! Going to Uni was when the party really got started and daily drinking became his pattern. That mix of affordability, availability and the heady feeling of being away from home means that the party starts for many of us at this stage of our lives. Nigel developed a career in marketing and PR – a profession where alcohol is “baked in” to the job and you wouldn't climb that career ladder if you didn't take clients out for drinks or let your hair down with colleagues at the end of the week. Work hard, play hard culture as in every corporate that I've worked in. Nigel drank for 35 years and certainly identified as a “drinker” – but as he got older he felt his body was not coping with it very well. He was constantly anxious and not sleeping well. He began to worry that he wouldn't see his 60th birthday if he carried on like this. Like many of us Nigel had know for years that he was drinking too much but always pushed these thoughts to the back of his mind He spoke about the Tribalism of being a drinker and how hard it is to step away from the pack. Not only do we feel vulnerable but our drinking buddies feel that we are holding a mirror to their drinking Leaving the Drinking Tribe is hard – it goes back to our roots when we had to stay with the tribe for protection. The way to cope with this is of course to join a Sobriety community and I must have had this in mind when I called our community Tribe Sober! If you think its time to transfer from your Drinking Tribe to Tribe Sober then just go to tribesober.com and hit join our tribe! Nigel made the decision to quit one morning in December He's had many Day Ones but never got further than 6 days in This time he approached it from a completely different angle Rather than seeing himself as a drinker trying to use willpower to become a non drinker…. In marketing speak he re-branded himself as a non drinker from Day 1! That's what we'd call a massive reframe here at Tribe Sober! That was a gamechanger for Nigel – he realised that his failure to stop for 35 years was simply because he was using the wrong technique! He used the analogy of a mountain – rather than starting at the foot of the mountain on Day One – with a long and intimidating climb ahead of him He started at the top of the mountain - as a non drinker – on Day One! Of course he had to work on his belief system to change his identity from drinker to non drinker He began to identify as a non drinker who leads a healthy life, gets up early, exercises, meditates and lives in the moment So he began to do all the things a non drinker would do He used the power of intention – he had the intention to be a non drinker Nigel explained to me that the power of intention is when:- What you intend to do becomes the deed, the deed becomes the habit, the habit becomes the character and the character can become the destiny Nigel is 2 years sober and loves the alcohol free lifestyle – he's in his 50's but he feels like he's in his 20's! We agreed that Sobriety is a Superpower He has 3 daily goals – up at 5.30am, walk 9 kilometres befoe 9am, meditate for 15 minutes – and don't drink alcohol today. So simple but so powerful! Nigels top 3 benefits have been – living in the present, health benefits and connecting on a deeper level We talked about the power of subliminal marketing and Nigel told me about a campaign by Guinness back in the 1950's which was targeting pregnant women – telling them that Guinness was good for the baby! As a marketing profession Nigel understands the effect it has on the subconscious mind and how we are in fact “groomed” to drink alcohol and be a lifelong customer of the liquor industry. We agreed that governments are complicit in this machine which sometimes feels like a gigantic conspiracy. In spite of all the manipulation Nigel does believe that we can change our beliefs. If we think that we can never stop drinking that's just a false and limiting beliefs. All beliefs they can be learned and unlearned. Nigel has written a book explaining how he did just that His book is called Walking Back to Happiness – available on Amazon His website is 9kmby9am   More Info Subscription membership – you can join up HERE.

In this episode we chat to author Nigel Jones, who's book Walking Back To Happiness was published last month. Nigel gave up alcohol in December 2020 and has been AF ever since. He talks about the mindset shift he adopted in the very early days of his sobriety - literally, when he very first started out - and how identifying as a non-drinker helped him to navigate his way into his new life. Nigel ditched booze, and took up walking - and something that started out as a fun competition with his sister led him to start his 9km by 9am brand, and of course, has inspired also the title for his new book. He talks about how removing alcohol and taking up walking has changed his physical health, but more importantly for Nigel, he talks about how its affected his mental health - and how walking every day is meditation for him. We were chuffed when Nigel recently joined our community after our chat, and he is already a really active member. We thank Nigel for his time for this podcast, and wish him every success with the book! --- Get In Touch: Of course, you can always get in touch with us (publicly or privately) on our socials - @alcoholfreepod on Instagram, or search for "Over The Influence" on Facebook.

Corinna sits with Nigel Jones to talk about his book and sobriety and have an absolutely amazing conversation!! "Aimed at millions of drinkers around the world who are interested in taking a break from alcohol, WALKING BACK TO HAPPINESS reveals the secret of how drinkers can free themselves from alcohol's control. Where the standard willpower method fails, this unique and easy-to-follow approach is proven to succeed. It shows how by quitting drinking you can transform your body, mind, life and find true happiness. The story of how a 50-something-year-old, who had been locked into the habit of drinking alcohol for over 35 years, finally woke up and said, "I want a different life"; how he found his purpose and in doing so transformed his mind and body; how he lost 30% of his body weight and made anxiety and sleepless nights a thing of the past. You don't have to be an alcoholic to stop drinking. You just need to recognise that your relationship with alcohol can lead to life-changing issues – not just for you but for your loved ones, your work colleagues, in fact, everyone you are connected to.

For most of its history, the corporate world shied away from talking about mental health in the workplace, particularly when it came to executives. Even in recent years, as organizations have expanded their support for employees in need, they have rarely asked leaders to focus on the issue. Which was a big part of why Nigel Jones, a longtime partner at Linklaters, LLC, joined up a decade ago with two other professionals — one a banker, one from accountancy — to form the City Mental Health Alliance in London. “We all thought it odd,” Nigel says, that although they were “entirely dependent” on their employees, they were incentivizing an approach to work that "created sickness, not health.” “We decided to create a safe space,” he adds, “in which senior people from the business could talk to each other openly and honestly about how mental health and well-being is important to them individually, and to the success of their businesses.” The last year brought mental health to the fore for all of us, and the issues go well beyond loneliness and anxiety about the pandemic. Even the basic tools of doing business remotely are taking a toll: “It's very, very difficult and tiring to read body language in two dimensions,” Nigel says, and “we can't do it effectively.” And it's also “much more tiring because we're trying so hard.” Jim Harrington, the Chief Intellectual Property Counsel at Radius Health in Boston (and a former client of Nigel's), agrees. “The studies are overwhelmingly consistent that humans need human contact to be happy,” he says. Having a close friend or confidant at work is “the Number 1 correlation to employee retention, happiness, engagement — everything you want in your workforce.” So something to focus on going forward, he argues, is how you can help your employees to “develop those kinds of close contacts” while keeping their distance, and also how you enable new employees “to become engaged and have those personal contacts” right now. Nigel underscores the bottom-line nature of the issue: “I would encourage people to stop thinking that there is a balance, on the one hand, between profitability or commercial success, and on the other, the well-being of your people, and recognize that those ‘tram lines' are parallel and synergistic,” he says. “If you don't look after yourself and your people, your business will not be sustainable, it will not be commercially successful, and it will not generate a profit.” To hear more of the discussion between Nigel, Jim, and Vanguard principal Ken Banta — and to learn more practical tips for fostering well-being in your people — check out this highlights video.
