Podcast appearances and mentions of Philip Green

In this eye-opening episode of Mark and Pete, we tackle three hot-button topics shaping Britain's present and future. First, we dig into the Scunthorpe steel crisis, where the government's dramatic intervention to rescue British Steel marks a pivotal moment in UK industrial strategy and national sovereignty. Is this the return of meaningful statecraft, or just a sticking plaster on a rusty industry? Next, we explore the unsung hero of nutrition: choline. This vital brain-boosting nutrient is chronically overlooked in public health discussions, despite its growing importance in cognitive development, memory, and long-term mental health. We'll unpack the latest research, dietary sources, and why so few people—even health professionals—talk about it. Finally, we revisit the legacy of Sir Philip Green, once the high-street king, now a cautionary tale of corporate greed and moral failure. Should figures like Green face tougher consequences for business misdeeds, or is the system designed to protect them? Insightful, sharp, and never shy, Mark and Pete deliver commentary with both conscience and wit. Whether you're passionate about British industry, nutrition, or accountability, this episode has something for you.

Tom Hollander is in my top five actors of all time. A rare beast who can do comedy and drama with equal, effortless brilliance. He lands a line so dry you need a glass of water just to recover—then, in the next breath, breaks your heart with those devastatingly eloquent eyes. And now, thanks to The White Lotus, he has also proved himself outstanding at dying. A Napoleon of the screen—compact but commanding, wielding presence like an emperor wields an army—he strode through Season 2, a vision of louche menace and debauched charm, before being so cruelly dispatched that I half-expected him to rise from the waves like some Mediterranean revenant, clutching an aperitivo and a bon mot. But no. Gone. Finished. Season 3 will have to stagger on without him, and be the lesser for it.So, in pre-mourning his absence, I give you two small consolations: a video in which he bemoans sharing a name with a very rich man, and possibly the greatest Life in the Day feature ever published. Read it. Read it twice. Then go and watch Rev. again, because honestly, nobody does it better.This appeared in The Sunday Times - Sunday, October 04 2020,I wake up generally at 3 or 4am. Not because I'm like Margaret Thatcher, but because I need to pee. I pee in the darkness using my phone screen to illuminate the target, then often take half a sleeping pill (antihistamine), turn on the World Service very quietly and try to go to sleep again. Sometime between 6 and 8 I wake again, turn up the Today programme gently. If my girlfriend is there we hold each other in different positions. If she isn't I wrap my arms around a pillow and continue listening to the bad news. Whoever gets up first will go downstairs and start baking porridge. It's like a savoury flapjack and was recommended to me by a very healthy-looking nutritionist. It takes about 40 minutes to cook and we eat it in such large quantities with olive oil and salt that we negate any nutritional benefits. But we enjoy it. And while it's cooking it gives us time to look at our phones.Sometimes in this waiting period I try to do three slow sun salutations to stretch myself out, but often I don't. I brew the first of many coffees. Which mostly involves heating up the stuff in the cafetière left over from the day before. If it's a slow day I make it in one of those Italian alloy things that students always used to have that involve a lot of assembled parts and washing up. Owing to forces beyond my control, life has not been as busy as it used to be.After we've eaten and my girlfriend has gone to work I look at myself in the mirror and try to see what others see. Examine my bald patch, weigh myself and pull my stomach in. Then let it out. Then pull it in again. If I'm feeling positive I might get dressed at this point and go for my second coffee on the street below. I've lived in the same flat for 20 years and one of the rewards for this loyalty is that I know all the shopkeepers and stallholders on the street, for whom I have become like a piece of the old furniture they sell.Hello Glen, hello Kris, Ghino!, hello Brendan, hello Fati, wave at Ray, turn the corner, bonjour Raschid, ça va? (keep going 'cause I can't really speak French), hello Hassan, hello Reg, morning Dave, yup still here Tony, hello Beatrice (she doesn't notice), slide into Porto: “Maya four-ter take away please” (phonetic Portuguese). Then take it home and leave it on the sideboard with any post that has arrived from my stalker.Then I might call my agent. “Isn't she? No, no, nothing important… just checking in…”Soon it's time for my midmorning nap. Followed by the preparation of lunch, which I start at 12.15pm. And at 1pm I turn on the radio again to listen to World at One and hear politicians lying or reports of the world ending.Whatever I make for lunch I eat too much of, which makes me feel a bit lethargic, so I make some more coffee and turn off the radio as The Archers starts so I'm ready to begin the second half of the day.The afternoon is time for hobbies and extracurricular activities. If it's sunny I might go for a cycle ride down the canal, if it's raining I might masturbate and doze, or speculate on the extraordinary injustice of Philip Green's knighthood, or look at that app that tells you which celebrity you most resemble (Tom Hardy). Sometimes I read long-form articles about the collapse of western society and the destruction of the planet.From about 5pm, assuming I haven't mislaid my house keys or mobile phone, it's possible to surf through the rest of the day on the news feed while preparing food, eating it and digesting through Newsnight.Then it's time to go to sleep again. Cracking a little sleeping pill in half in case I need it later, I turn on the radio very quietly. If my girlfriend's there we hold each other in various shapes. If she's not I put my arms around a pillow. This is a public episode. If you would like to discuss this with other subscribers or get access to bonus episodes, visit mrzwar.substack.com

On Our Changing World, Claire Concannon heads to the Wye Valley just outside Queenstown.   The Southern Lakes Sanctuary project is setting up a new smart trap network there, the fourth they've built in the region. They hope these AI-powered traps will help them trap more efficiently in difficult-to-reach areas.  Philip Green is a technical and field advisor for the project. He first came to the Wye Valley many years ago for the excellent climbing, and now is heavily involved in its conservation.

On today's show we chat to Erin Deering - ex-co-founder of multi-million dollar swimwear brand Triangl, and recent author of her first book, Hanging By A Thread. The idea for Triangl was simple: The year was 2012 and Erin struggled to find an affordable bikini she liked, so alongside her partner at the time, Craig Ellis, she decided to manufacture them. The idea to do this together, by the way, was decided upon on just their second date - and a day after Erin's 27th birthday. By 2015, the company was selling more than 1000 bikinis a day and Topshop's Philip Green wanted to invest. From the outside, you'd think she had it all: a life in Monaco, flying first class, and their own super yacht. But this was far from reality and Erin was very much struggling. In 2016, Erin left not only her business, Triangl, but also her partner. Today, Erin lives with her four kids and husband Zac Keane in Melbourne. She is a businesswoman and entrepreneur through and through and has honestly been through it all. We're talking pretty much every high and low in business and life that you can imagine. So join us as we unpack the highs and lows Erin experienced with Triangl, the fashion business she is launching a little later in 2024 and all things Hanging By A Thread - her very first book! – Erin has a number of books lined up - the one she wants to read the most is Glossy: Ambition, Beauty, and the Inside Story of Emily Weiss's Glossier. She also has Surrounded By Idiots and Small Giants on her list. She is also an avid listener of the Diary Of A CEO Podcast (I mean, who isn't?!) – Find Erin on Instagram here: @erinkdeering and TikTok here: @erindeering You can also find Erin's book, Hanging By A Thread for a vulnerable deep dive into Erin's success and the challenges she faced in trying to take care of her mental health while in pursuit of her dreams. – Wanting more?

How did Sir Philip Green go from being a respected retail mogul to becoming the unacceptable face of capitalism? BBC business editor Simon Jack and journalist Zing Tsjeng find out, and then they judge him. In the podcast that uncovers how the world's 2,668 billionaires made their money and asks if they are good or bad for the planet, Simon and Zing talk about a man who Simon has had a few run ins with. Hear what it's like to get a phone call in the middle of the night from Sir Philip, how he built his empire, and how it came crashing down.

Phillip Green, An 11 year old boy, quite the entrepreneur was out collecting golf balls at a local golf course. He would sell the balls back to the golfers and earn himself some pocket money.On a cold day in Bristol in 1970, Philip Green was doing just that. Darkness fell and he failed to return home.Philip's body would later be found with horrific injuries. Who does that to a child?? And why??Music: The Ghost Castle by Frank SchroeterFree download: https://filmmusic.io/song/6602-the-ghost-castleLicensed under CC BY 4.0: https://filmmusic.io/standard-licenseThis show is part of the Spreaker Prime Network, if you are interested in advertising on this podcast, contact us at https://www.spreaker.com/show/5894684/advertisement

It's a weird time to be a yachtie. There's a new attention on the industry that has just never been there before. It's all got a bit…heavy. Remember when you used to struggle to explain to people that no, you don't work on a cruise ship? We were off the radar, and that was just fine. We were the oddball friends that flew home with suntans, charter tips and mad stories. Reality shows have filled in some of those blanks but now, unfortunately for some, real notoriety has arrived in the form of the front page of the Daily Mail and even worse, sanctions lists. Russian-owned yachts are listed as assets of Very Bad People. The crew? Well, they're the new Stormtroopers on the Deathstar. There have been examples of this kind of scrutiny before. Remember the ‘BHS Destroyer' banner some wise guy stuck on the side of Philip Green's yacht in 2016? That was during the retail magnate's pension deficit scandal. Not a comfortable day for the crew. Even further back in the 90's, Robert Maxwell fell to his death from his yacht as it was emerging how much money he'd stolen from his company's pension fund. Seriously, what is it with these guys and pension funds? Anyway, those were isolated incidents and the alleged crimes of the owners were white collar in nature. The crew were probably bewildered and had a grim meeting that day, were probably briefed to avoid press and wait for it all to die down. Now an entire nationality of owner is deemed unacceptable and linked to a war. Not fraud or financial criminality - actual, hideous, bloody, war. Overnight, not only do their crew's jobs hang in the balance but the moral plates have shifted seismically under their feet. Questions are popping up that are making brains hurt. Are we bad people if we work for ‘bad' people? Is it bad to work for an owner who is alleged to have done bad things? How many owners (or indeed humans) have perfect track records? I guess the key question is how bad is BAD? For the full story, head over to OnboardOnline.com #Yachting #YachtCrew #SuperYacht #Russian #Oligarch #Morality #TheKFlag #OnboardOnline

Nous sommes en 1974. Né dans une famille espagnole très pauvre, Amancio Ortega est obligé d'arrêter ses études pour commencer à travailler, comme coursier pour une marque de vêtements, puis couturier. Motivé par une incroyable envie de s'en sortir et de s'extraire de sa condition, il travaille dur et fonde ce qui va devenir l'un des plus gros géants mondiaux de la mode : Zara.Ces mêmes années, Topshop voit le jour, d'abord comme un petit stand dans le sous-sol d'un grand magasin. Tandis le futur PDG de l'enseigne, Philip Green, tente maladroitement de percer dans le commerce de jeans. Et en Californie, un couple de coréens poursuit son rêve américain en lançant Forever 21, la marque de mode la plus abordable jamais créée.Vous pouvez consulter notre politique de confidentialité sur https://art19.com/privacy ainsi que la notice de confidentialité de la Californie sur https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Nous sommes en 1987. Jane Shepherdson est l'acheteuse vedette pour la chaîne anglaise de magasins de vêtements Topshop. Personne n'est capable de sentir à l'avance les futures tendances aussi bien qu'elle. Ses collections sont totalement dans l'air du temps, à tel point que les jeunes femmes britanniques se ruent chez Topshop. Mais ce long travail sur l'image de l'enseigne va être mis en pièce lorsque l'entreprise est rachetée par l'homme d'affaires Philip Green.Pendant ce temps, la marque suédoise H&M ouvre son premier point de vente aux Etats-Unis. Et bientôt, une collaboration révolutionnaire avec Karl Lagerfeld, styliste vedette de Chanel, va brouiller les frontières entre mode et fast fashion.Vous pouvez consulter notre politique de confidentialité sur https://art19.com/privacy ainsi que la notice de confidentialité de la Californie sur https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

È il 2018, e H&M sta annegando in un mare di merce invenduta del valore di miliardi di dollari. I negozi fisici sono in difficoltà. Su Internet, invece, Shein prospera, sfruttando le tendenze dei social media per realizzare capi di abbigliamento desiderabili e ultra-economici, che arrivano nelle mani dei clienti nel giro di pochi giorni.E Topshop, un tempo leader del settore, è a rischio, quando Philip Green viene accusato pubblicamente di abusi, razzismo e molestie sessuali. E anche Forever 21 si trova in un mare di guai.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Liz is nostalgic for the days Boris Johnson was Prime Minister after watching This England but Nic has a bone to pick with his former Chancellor. The pair are looking back at the time Liz took on Topshop's Philip Green, and he took her discount card away. And Liz is stuck between two guys and is wondering if either of them is good enough for her.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

My guest this week has been called “the most influential woman in fashion”. We both met starting out at Topshop in our 20s, before Jane Shepherdson went on to put Topshop at the beating heart of cultural relevance in a way no other high street brand had been before. But then – to the surprise of the outside world – she walked away from it all. To me, Jane is a beautiful misfit because we share something very important – she was not driven by money, or growth, but instead by creative instinct. As fast fashion grew, and the internal culture of the company under Philip Green became too much to bear – Jane needed to find distance from the machine she now saw as a monster, and sought out a new way to channel her creative energy.   She explains the anger she felt at having to let go of her “baby”, the protection she had to put around her team, and why she's dedicated her career ever since, to doing fashion differently.  Follow Mary Portas on: Instagram: @maryportasofficial Facebook: Mary Portas And to get in touch with team Portas, email us at: beautifulmisfits@portasagency.com and you can subscribe to the Portas POV Newsletter for musings, provocation insights and inspiration.

GreenBank Capital Inc CEO Terry Pulled tells Proactive that its portfolio company CodiKoat has beaten a very strong field to win a nationwide competition in the UK designed to find the best solutions to provide clean air in residential environments. Pullen says CodiKoat was one of 49 companies that took part in a competition by Innovate UK, a non-departmental public body seeking to help solve the serious problem of nitrous oxide and sulphur dioxide gases as well as particulate matter. What's more, CodiKoat has appointed Philip Green as its CFO. Green is the former Amazon CFO for the Europe, Middle East, and Africa regions.

Honorary Scot Liz Barclay has a long history of campaigning for consumer justice and financial inclusion through her days at Citizens Advice, a distinguished career as a journalist and BBC Radio 4 presenter, and her seat on the Financial Inclusion Commission. Then in July 2021, Liz was revealed as the new UK Small Business Commissioner. The commission is an independent body set up by the UK Government to support SMEs by tackling the late payment practices of all too many big businesses. It's a huge problem for many smaller companies, with levels of late payment across the UK now totalling around £50bn. Liz Barclay is the perfect person to listen to on this topic, and a highly entertaining interviewee too. We also hear about her brushes with Duncan Bannatyne and Philip Green, her colourful Scottish connections and her truly extraordinary lockdown project. For the first time in 19 months, this Scottish Business Network podcast interview was recorded in front of an audience of real people in an actual room. It took place at London Scottish House on 7 September 2021, with Christine Esson expertly taking the interviewer's seat. www.allencomms.co.uk

The Trading Mentality is an approach that is prevalent within the inner workings of some of the worlds biggest retailers. It's an ideology that harks back to the days of market stall trading, with the message at its core being to “always be dissatisfied”. This mantra has been used as a tool to motivate businesses to pursue relentless sales growth and to endlessly maximise their profits, which is why the concept has become somewhat synonymous with some of the more ruthless and cutthroat business practices of retailers like Philip Green of the currently struggling Arcadia Group. It might then seem that assuming a trading mentality would be antithetical to the goals and direction of a small purpose-led business - but that's not the case! Companies like Patagonia and Lush are two great examples of businesses with strongly held beliefs as well as having a strong trading mentality -for them, the two approaches work and support each other in tandem. So, in episode 29 of The Resilient Retail Game Plan, I want to discuss why the trading mentality is relevant to you, how it can help you think about your business differently and help you grow. We'll break down what actually constitutes having a trading mentality and what it means for the ways we plan, review and react to changes in the marketplace; and I'll cover how if we want to push for positive change in the retail industry that we should be focussing on establishing a strong ‘triple bottom line' of people, planet and profits.

Elon Musk's electric carmaker Tesla invests $1.5B in bitcoin Tesla has announced it bought 1-and-a-half billion dollars worth of Bitcoin in January as part of its efforts to diversify its investments. In a regulatory filing, the electric carmaker also said it will start accepting the cryptocurrency as a form of payment for its products. The news sent bitcoin rallying to a new record high of 44-thousand dollars. SoftBank sees WeWork recovery, Q3 net profit soars to $11B Softbank net profit soared to 11 billion dollars in the third quarter, thanks to the global rally in tech stocks. The figure marks a more than twenty-fold jump from a year ago, when profits were almost wiped out due to troubles with its office-sharing business, WeWork. The Japanese group's Vision Fund also swung to a record 8-billion dollar profit during the period. Boohoo buys three brands from Arcadia for $34.6M British online fashion retailer Boohoo has agreed to buy Dorothy Perkins and two other brands from Arcadia for 34-point-6 million dollars. But the deal does NOT include the group's high-street stores, putting 2-and-a half thousand jobs at risk. Philip Green's Arcadia fashion empire went into administration last year, becoming Britain's largest corporate casualty of the pandemic.

This week on the BoF Podcast, retail veteran and former Topshop brand director Jane Shepherdson and BoF senior editorial associate Tamison O’Connor break down Topshop’s rise and fall and what comes next for the British high street.   A new era for Topshop is about to begin.On Monday, digital fashion retailer Asos purchased the high-street label, along with sister brands Topman, Miss Selfridge and HIIT, for £295 million ($403 million). The deal ended months of speculation about Topshop’s future after parent Arcadia Group fell into administration last November, as BoF senior editorial associate Tamison O’Connor reported in a BoF Professional article breaking down why Asos needs Topshop.   “It’s been very sad for me to see them go through what they’ve been through in the last few months,” retail veteran and former Topshop brand director Jane Shepherdson said in discussion with BoF editor-in-chief Imran Amed on this week’s podcast.   Shepherdson discusses her time at Topshop when it was at the height of its success, the internal and external forces that caused the brand’s demise, before O’Connor weighs in on what the future might hold for the brand under Asos’ ownership. Topshop’s decline was a long-time coming, Shepherdson said, reflecting on her time at the brand. She joined Arcadia as a young graduate and worked her way up the ranks as a buyer, spearheading Topshop’s transformation into a fashion destination. But she left the company in 2006 as Philip Green, who bought Arcadia Group in 2002, became more involved in the business. “He was an asset stripper, more than anything else. He bought businesses, and then sold them again,” she said. “My philosophy was that you would make sure that you designed and bought something that was so amazing that no one would be able to resist it.” Asos’ ambition to capitalise on the newly acquired Arcadia brands and customer databases will depend on establishing strong and independent identities for Topshop, Topman, Miss Selfridge and HIIT on the Asos platform, O’Connor said. O’Connor goes on to explain how the British high street’s transformation into a largely online market has been accelerated by the pandemic, having brought long-struggling British retailers like Debenhams and Arcadia Group to their knees Related Articles:Why Asos Needs TopshopWhy Digital Fashion Companies Are Buying Up Tired BrandsThe Rise and Fall of Topshop: What Went Wrong     To contact The Business of Fashion with comments, questions or speaker ideas please email podcast@businessoffashion.com.   Sign up for BoF’s Daily Digest newsletter.

Hello our favourite people in the world and welcome to a brand spanking new episode of AWD. What's on the slate this week? The Michaela Coel x Louis Theroux crossover we didn't know we needed, why we've all misunderstood Courtney Love, and the troubling blind spot in the HBO hit series 'The Undoing'. Then it's on to Lonely Lingerie—once the world's favourite indie intimates label, now embroiled in a QAnon scandal that threatens the entire company. Alongside the fall of Philip Green's Topshop, it's more evidence that in 2020, brand founders will always be held to account for their personal values. Then it's onto 'Happiest Season', the first gay Christmas romantic comedy, starring Kristen Stewart. It isn't perfect, but does it have to be? With Ryan Murphy's 'The Prom' set to hit Netflix on Friday, we discuss the backlash around James Corden's 'offensive' perfomance, which has ignited a new debate around 'Gayface', and whether or not straight actors should play queer roles.

By tapping into your personal power, you will have a life with greater passion, purpose and will truly unlock your potential and make what you say matter. Because what you say matters is a quote from Tamsin Napier-Munn. Man. So Tamsin. I do. I do want to drop straight in to everything that you're doing. However, prior to that, I'm hoping that you can kind of unpack for us your history, your academic background and early professional life that led you to what you're doing now with a long story.   [00:04:54] I'm sure it was a lovely, lovely, long story to tell. So, you know, I really didn't have much of an academic background, so we can swiftly go past that one. But I you know, I wasn't you know, it didn't engage in school. I was autistic. I think I had ADHD then. But I think people really understood it. So I had quite a dysfunctional and very abusive childhood. So my focus was very much on self preservation. And part of that was I wasn't really allowed to speak. So I was very much metaphorically gagged as a child. So I kind of lifted my head for a lot of time. So I went into Six-fold college and before I went to art college, which I dropped out of, I have to say I had other retsina of young girls, you know, really struggled with your own identity and all the rest of it. So it took me years of years to start to, I guess, undo a lot of the self-esteem issues. And that was probably the reason why I kind of dropped out of college. I went to college. I wanted to be a fashion designer. And so that was the path to go. So unfortunately, I didn't finish it. I don't think my parents were too impressed. Hey, that's that's my academic background.   [00:06:20] Yeah, well, listen, that's interesting because I frequently find in people that I speak to, particularly women or female identified or non binary individual, that doesn't necessarily denote a very prolific. And like a widely cast net as far as the professional life is concerned, you know, inquiry during that time period happens at any stage, regardless of the institution one finds themselves in. So how did you start your professional life?   [00:06:47] Well, interesting. You know, I think it teaches you. I mean, when you go through stuff, it teaches you resilience, determination. And I know although I fell out of college. I still wanted to be a fashion designer, I kind of went up it's sort of one of those romantic stories or not of running up to London and.   [00:07:10] Finding my fame and fortune, but unfortunately found it probably in the wrong places and found myself with the wrong with the wrong people. Just one morning, early morning when I was coming back from one of those all nighters, I was passing the rag trade in London and I happened to peer into the window of this fashion house. And this chap came out and we got chatting and offered me a job. At that point, it was simply a go for job. I was I was hanging clothes and go for a go for that to go for this and any thirty five pounds a week. It was. Wow. Yeah. Not a lot, but I was willing to learn. And I then went to work for Philip Green, the infamous Philip Green one stop shop. And that was an experience I think baptism by fire with that gentleman. And he you know, I'm no good to jumping into a defining moments in our lives. But, you know, that kick started my career in sales because although I wanted to be a fashion designer, I ended up talking to clients, selling clothes from the racks and to the wholesalers to top shop. I felt I had a knack of of influencing and how to understand people relate and connect. So I remember Philip Green wants to turn round to me and said, Tamsin, if you had brains that you'd be dangerous. I remember thinking, I don't think that was a compliment. But it gave me a real drive to start to say, okay, that I'll show you moments. And I from that moment, all my career started to kind of go forward, but I really didn't know what I wanted to do. I knew I wanted to make money. The reason being is I want to be financially independent. I think a lot of women that I have met who perhaps happen to have a secure background have been driven to feel that financial security and independence that they haven't had. So that was my drive. More than anything else. So I went into sales more and more in the fashion industry in the 80s. So that was the boom time. The fashion business went into footwear business industry. So you can either very what they call a squiggly career. I mean, I did have no plan, no idea what I was doing. And so I went into the fashion footwear business with my cousin. And I became sales manager at the age of 21. And I was driving right round the country selling off samples. I mean, you talk about hard work and just to the grindstone. I mean, I, I was really working hard. I made some good money. Then I flipped into the publishing industry. I mean, you can get more books. Well, apart from, you know, photographs and fashion of fashion, I went into publishing. I was head hunted, so to speak, for you to start a contract publishing arm. And I ended up selling advertising space. The Haab no sales environment with guys. About 90 percent of them were guys sitting in a room smoking. In those days. I'm off to the pub at lunchtime and I'd go off with the media. I think, you know, then just a kind of short circuit. A lot of this. I bumped around in space, rode the crest of the wave of each wave of whether it was fashion, because then in the 80s we had the we had the crash. Now we had a publishing was on the up. And there was all sorts of wonderful things. I went to sporting events. Hospitality was just fun. And then I went into I.T.. So, you know, when the dot com boom started and I actually when doffs which was around, I was I was one of the first people in the software training industry working for a franchise in London from Atlanta, Georgia.   [00:11:18] So I headed that up for the sales team in London. And then the U.K. found I was, you know, again, honing my skills as a salesperson. I ended up training some of the people in sales around me. And again, it was the dot com boom time. Patricia. It was, you know, the time when you couldn't not make money. I had no idea about technology. I still don't. If I'm honest. And but I just knew how to connect with people. So that was that was that. So where are we? So the dot com boom and bust and then I previously taken a Dale Carnegie course when I was 21. And it had just just changed my whole view on me as well. So this is where I started believing in myself. Somebody else believed in me more than I did. And I know what is the deal.   [00:12:23] Dale Carnegie course forever.   [00:12:25] Dale Carnegie, of course, is Merican. He wrote the book How to Win Friends and Influence People back in 1936. I think it was and it's still be one of the most prolific early read books. And so Ballard now do. And what it did is it gave me tools and the confidence because it's all around public speaking. And that's, you know, when you talk about where did my when rule talks perhaps start? It started way back. This is the perfect storm. We kind of came to fruition because of a number of events coming together.   [00:13:02] But it started in my ability to start to speak up to find my voice, which is what I didn't have for many years since I was a child. To realize that actually I could influence and I could speak and I could have the courage to put myself out there. And so it boosted my confidence. So at the same time of when I've joined the technology company, the trading company, my my career just flew. I was having a lot of fun. My confidence was there. But I think, you know. When things fell to on rocky foundations. You know, the cracks in the mortar of the building can start to show you. If you don't dig those root, there's foundations out to rebuild.   [00:14:00] And that's that's simply what happens after a while. I was working really hard just to make money. I then decided I wanted to go into the training industry full time. So I went to work for Dale Carnegie. I opened the office in Windsor in the UK, and I then started to run seminars, which is then when I really found that I loved connecting with people and speaking up and speaking from the halls. And coaching people. And then you want me to go see Joy? Yeah, this is good.   [00:14:37] I mean, it does it does lead way into kind of what you did and how you were doing. How long did you carry that position?   [00:14:45] For a few years, this bit sort of vague about a few years, but I have been connected. Patricia with Dale Carnegie since I say 1988. So you could probably guess my age now.   [00:14:58] 1988 to still I'm partnering with them with Robert talks as well. Because what they did is was fundamentally changed. Was the change was permanent. So a number of the things that I'm working with now. Best practice is based on that. Yeah.   [00:15:15] So by unpacking of that, I want to skip over to because I kind of want to end with Unpacking Rocks Talks Academy, but I really want to get into your hosting of the Women in Business Awards. So really quickly for everyone listening. What is it. And how long you served as the host and how and why were you selected to host those awards?   [00:15:36] Okay, I'll start with a selection how that came about, because I just very quickly. I had my son. Things were going well. I was coaching one to one self-employed. And I have been since then. And then I got married. I did everything round also about face. My mother would call it, you know, I did things the wrong way around. Got married off I. Yeah. And then not long. You know, it was any of a short lived marriage. Got divorced. That was very painful. When I said the cracks started to show, that's when they started to show I self my anxiety.   [00:16:12] I was going through menopause and I pretty soon realized I was having a nervous breakdown, which I did, which was, you know, looking at a drawer full of pills that I didn't want to take. What was it? Another defining moment? I had to make a decision to do something. So having met the owner of the business magazines some years before. I got out one day, literally out of my chair, feeling absolutely paralyzed, picked up my phone, and I phoned him because I had a son who I had to look after. No one was paying for him but me and my finances were going backwards. And I was stuck and really wasn't sure what I was going to do about it. So something just propelled me into action. I just got up. I phoned David Murray and I said that to David. I think I've got some ideas for you, how you could expand your business ideas with your awards and your events because of my facilitation. And could I have some time with you to show you what I think that we can do together?   [00:17:28] And.   [00:17:31] He agreed and. He gave me an opportunity that not there wasn't an opportunity, that it wasn't a joke. I just created something. I created a need. And so that's one of the things that I think women, you know, we as women absolutely need to be doing. Moral is creating a need seeking. Finding and filling it rather than waiting until we're asked. Until we're ready. Until something comes up. So I. I sold myself and sold the idea. He then gave me three campaigns to run part time. So I was part time. He was playing me. I'm one of them was the Women in Business Awards now, which I have never, ever been interested in these women's groups, women's stuff. I think probably because I've never seen or felt that I've had any difficulty with in a man's world. Perhaps I used to, dare I say, my sexuality, my my you know, my charm. To my advantage. Rightly or wrongly, it worked for me and most of my clients, my customers were men. And so, you know, I this was alien to me and it was like ladies who lunch was not my thing. So I was kind of doing it because I liked the idea of of speaking, being in an audience and raising my profile. And I knew that the only way to raise my profile and start to get noticed.   [00:19:04] What I do is to step forward to grab this opportunity with both arms, which I did. So I started hosting the first one, which was then there was a second year and ever done it. And we had lots of sponsors. It was 2015 and was first time being on stage like that, you know, in front of two 300 people.   [00:19:34] And it was quite daunting. But I, I really broke a fear of standing in front of people. And that's a lot of conversation. Maybe some time, you know, about standing in front of an audience was one of the biggest fears that I ever had. Like a lot of people, I was humiliated as a child in front of my father, in front of groups of his friends. So I had this blog and I was determined to overcome it. So this was a real big one for me. So over the last five, five 1/2 years, I've been hosting and growing the campaign. So it's not just the awards, it's the whole writing, the newsletters, putting everything on the Web site, interviewing some really successful, amazing women. And I soon realized this is why it's come to this now, is I really realized how much women we as women tend to, I say, tend to not everybody hold ourselves back.   [00:20:35] Yeah. So that got me into the women and Business Awards and the hosting. So I started to build my profile, make amazing connections, interview lots of amazing women and start to kind of build a picture, not just from my own experiences of what it stands for, what we will talk stands for, which how I can come on to the reason for it. The drive for it.   [00:21:00] But, you know, I started realizing the DNA that could be captured with women who are successful to each of those.   [00:21:09] I think it's remarkable, too, that you came at it from this like, you know, you didn't feel incredibly blighted with your career, you know, based with the gender parity and disparity issues. Yeah. There's so many people talk about, I think, unique. And it's a brave platform to have to say I didn't really feel maybe I was using things to my advantage, but it worked for me. So I am curious now. Can we kind of I'd like you to unpack Raw Talks Academy. It was founded recently in 2019 with your love infancy endeavors are so fun, but it sounds like it was born out of like axiomatic principles that you were doing prior to that with the business magazine awards and things like that. So can you kind of like walk us through how it was developed? You also do it in partnership with and with the business magazine owner, or was this a separate thing where he's been very supportive of it and it's sort of run alongside?   [00:22:07] It is my own venture. And so, you know, I think what it comes at the core of it is about finding your voice. It is about courage. And it is about three things I did. I so I created a system, Latricia, that I identified as sort of I unpacked everything that I had done in my life. So this is, you know, wasn't an overnight success and still isn't. But it's it's something that I still look at. What have I achieved and how have I done it? How have I overcome things? And. To to then identify those processes and the mindset, the techniques that I use. And at the core of it is those two things, finding your voice and having the courage to act. I think that a lot of women, as I say, tend to we hold ourselves back, waiting to be ready, waiting until we're sure and waiting until we feel like it's waiting to be asked. Waiting until the all the lights turn green. We hesitate. We tend to think over and analyze underestimates our values. So there's so many statistics out there. And I started to read up about how women have held themselves back because they only go for something unless they're 80 percent ready or feel that they are ready. You know, someone a friend of mine said to me, a male friend, he said, you know what? Men have more of a subject button than women. You know, they have a kind of the more willing to kind of go for something. Yeah. Yeah. Rule talks is stands for real, authentic women. And what I can see in a lot of women, including myself, which is my journey as much as anybody's. Is to stop wearing masks, to start to rob and be fine when everyone says, how are you? You say, I'm fine. And we all know what that means. It's fucked up, insecure, neurotic and emotional. Or someone else has said is feelings inside not expressed. A lot of women have a voice, so they want to say something. They have ideas, but they hesitate waiting to think that I might be taken seriously. Overlooked for promotion, and this about time we stepped up, spoke up and identified these three areas, if you like. I believe everybody needs to master if they want to get ahead. But in particular, women know this. This is a game changer. I'm not one is to inspire the ability to inspire others. The ability to influence others. And the ability to impact change. So will the skills and the processes of the system are geared to support women in doing those three things?   [00:25:09] I got a lot of inspiration from at the core of this is I identified one thing that enabled me and I say enabled me. I empowered myself because this is one of the things that I know that I love. I come back to this, but. I accept the awards evening once, and this guy said to me. Young guy, he said, you know what, women have got to stop pointing the finger at everybody else, I'm saying they've got to change. You know, they they've got to and I. And I just looked at him knowing I was hosting a in business, he knew that, so hence the he brought it up. I looked at him and I said. Really? And you said women really got to be the change. They've got to be that that influence rather than waiting for other people to change. And I thought he's absolutely right. How? I have never it remind me of my career. I've never waited for somebody else to change. But I had to be that influence, that change in me. So I. I truly believe that they talk about empowering women. This is the this is the subtitle to everything. Women Empowerment and how companies are empowering women. And they don't. How can they? They can allow them to do to empower themselves. Only women can take charge to give themselves the authority to change. So my system is ultimately the ultimate self empowerment, personal power empowerment system because it's women taking charge for themselves and in a way not wasting time until they give them permission to. And that, to me, is how we can make change happen on a large scale. So the system, the academy is is about teaching women the skills, the courage, and ultimately to help them to find that voice and use it. So the core of this is this is a is a something I call it the power of three activation for me that was inspired. I have to say by Mel Robbins, her five second rule, however, comma. I realized that with a different process to this, and actually five seconds takes me three seconds to talk myself out of something. And if you can actually get out of your head into action and you can get out of your head and without overthinking in a way that is quick, that engages. Exactly. But you're locked in mental jail. For me, it was locked down for a lot of people as being mentally locked down. You know, I put myself in solitary confinement in my head for a long time. And what we have to do is to to break out of. Mental lockdown. And to get into action rather than carping, paralyzed by fear and anxiety. Yeah. And as I was so so the power of reactivation of formula. I teach the core of everything. So it is a formula, a three step process of becoming present and really being aware of your instincts. Being aware of the instincts to act. So whether you have an idea, then you have to put your hand up in the meeting. And you have that instinct to do that rather than what a lot of people do, is to kind of work for the break. Some say, should I put my hand up? Should I say something at the moment? Gone. Rather than not has to to follow your instincts and to count backwards three to one and physically move through the physical movements, changes your mindset as far as mental expounds is engaging your prefrontal cortex so that you can actually make those physical changes in that moment. This few seconds, an act, as you know, that's probably one of the drivers that most people will say from the testimonials you might see is somebody got rid of the excuses is to act on instinct, to honor your instincts with deliberate action so that if you like, the power of three, which is at the core of everything, and I think that is for me, the. The thing that I look back at, yeah, that's what's caused changes in my life. Yeah, I'm curious about.   [00:29:55] So I had the opportunity to read some pieces, some comments and testimonials from your previous clients. And it sounds like a continuous theme is that they all feel like you have offered them at, you know, a roadmap to self empowerment and also that you yourself lead by example that you're this very powerful speaker and things of that nature. And it caused me to kind of consider your client profile even further. And I'm curious to go noticed any trends even prior to officially launching, you know, Raud Talks Academy. Do you find that you have like a very niche or specific profile of individual that you work with? Or does it span all industry and genre? Like, how does that work for you? Have you.   [00:30:43] Good question. Yeah, that's a good question. Tricia B.. Profile of. My clients is women. I mean, that is the main profile of my clients. I say from I identify this, everyone suffers from the same things to a smaller or greater degree.   [00:31:12] And it's not just women who are all returning to work, not your career break, you lack confidence. It is potentially women who are starting out in their career as graduates. Women tend to still have those those fears and those doubts. I'm not sure where that's come from, whether that's a biological or that's your nature. You know, there's a lot to be said for looking into all of that. There's also aspiration. I'd say aspirational women are my my target audience. Anyone who is looking to influence, looking to find their voice, wanting to get ahead and is willing to commit to doing something and confronting situations. And part of this course in the program, the 12 week program that I'm now I'm now launching next month is a pilot when I piloted last year and very powerful program because it starts off with the first eye, which is inspiration. Now everybody wants to eat to inspire others around them. And I took my inspiration rather than motivation, because inspiration is the rocket fuel for this thing, for any endeavor. And if women want to to raise their profile, they want to be seen to be more influential. They first need to look at themselves and be inspirational. And so that's one of the things that women tend that I found tend to do, is they downplay their assets than strengths. So what I do is confront them with. Looking at what they've got going for them, you know, that's reminding them, rediscovering that that part of them, that they. They realize this is a strength. Take them through a five step process of self discovery and that when they come out of that and it's experiential, it's not theoretical process. So my coaching just to kind of the way it works and why it's so transformational is that I use best practice coaching in the sense of I use specific ways of disrupting and challenging their thinking. And then I do a little coaching in the Vegan.   [00:33:36] So from my Dale Carnegie days, it's all about stand and deliver. Well, maybe now as I sit and deliver an online book, stand and deliver, it is about building confidence through public speaking. So I coach them in the moment so they can actually feel the transformation and I challenge them to be better. Be bold. Be brave. And so take them out of their comfort zone is where the magic happens, I say, and you're right, it's it's it's something that I haven't I haven't by any means got to where I want to be. But also I'm also very conscious. This is my journey to I struggle and I'm very honest about it. I'm very transparent. Like you said, you are transparent, you know, very honest. This is about being authentic, but being vulnerable and being brave. To be doing that, the only way that you can inspire and connect with other people is by being those things. So that's what the program teaches. You know, this is our struggle, just as everybody else does still that and like you being very akin and, you know, human.   [00:34:49] Much like your clients, I'm wondering how is your process sounds? Very much so. Like it's about self identity awareness. And then these lily pad action item approaches as to how to change through the eyes. They're inspiring and and impacting and all of those things. But I'm wondering to that. And it sounds like, you know, it's it's kind of micro goal making to kind of get your behavior to change. And with you yourself, as you likened yourself to your clients just now. Do you find yourself transforming as the time goes on that you continue to kind of coach people in this? Do you find your theory's kind of retaining or accelerating in their clarity? And if so, how is that shaping your future goals with what you're going to do with the academy?   [00:35:39] So what I think you are what you say, because it was a little bit. I got a noise in the background. Is that because this is evolving? Is that is that really. Yeah.   [00:35:53] Setting is so I'm young. If the if if you have evolved as an adviser to your clients and if so, has that changed the future of where you're headed.   [00:36:04] I think, you know, well, I'm very excited about the fact that I don't have to be the person standing up that I am, Patricia. This is probably you know, you've hit the nail on the head. I see. And I talk about other women. They say they will go to talks. They'll listen to some very well known. Whether it's Michelle Obama, whether it's for Winfrey, or they'll have some iconic equal over the U.K. businesswoman because listen to get inspired. But inspiration tends to disappear, tends to sort of weaken as they leave the auditorium or they leave. That's because what they're saying to themselves is I could never be like that. So what I want from this academy is about storytelling, that hearing other women's stories in a way that is about then sharing it with passion and practice to inspire other women, saying I'm not nothing special. This is my story. And but this is where I've come from. So. For me, it's about the ordinary, I say ordinary, exceptionally ordinary woman.   [00:37:20] Who has an extraordinary capacity to share the.   [00:37:29] The golden nuggets of wisdom that are being hidden because they haven't had the courage of confidence to speak up. So this is about. So they learn to tell students about storytelling. So every session that they work through is they tell a story. They learn how to frame it and learn how to deliberate with passion and purpose. And finding their purpose as part of this. Is when you've got that, you've got inspiration. You become unstoppable. So that's the final icing on the cake. The Road Teams Academy will be something I'm launching next year. Hopefully it'll be something that if we can all go back on stage. Quite an amazing national program. And it's about sharing, watching people's journey from. From being sort of perhaps less confident person to being an inspirational speaker and seeing that person transformed because that's what inspires people, not maybe the Michelle Mon's or the current Bradys we have over here. Yeah. Been there. Done it. It's seeing someone actually grow. So I hope that people will see me evolve. You know, because, yeah, that's a pressure on myself to do that. I have to. I got to do what I'm asking other people to do. Absolute lockdown. That's exactly what happens, because I'm natural's for my notable line, libeled line. I'm totally out of my comfort zone. This is not where I want to be. Yeah. So there's another test.   [00:39:19] Absolutely. And I think a lot of people who can and are able to and fortunate enough to receive it that way and do it are growing. You know, and I think that's one of the offshoots that I very timidly try and proffer up, you know, as as nothing good ever came from pandemic. But something good frequently comes from the human struggle. You know, and and so within that, I think that we can kind of openly talk about those things. And it sounds like you've endeavored with that as well. Well, Tamsin, we're running out of time and we're at my favorite parts. For everyone who listens to my podcast regularly knows that I am unabashedly honest about the idea that this final question of mine, I don't change. And. And I've asked it of a million people. So I will ask you now today. I'm curious if you had a young woman or female identified or non binary individual approached you in a park or a garden tomorrow at a safe social distance and say, Oh, Tamsin, I'm so glad I found you. So check it out. I've had this career that has been this beautifully winding road throughout all of these different industries. I started off, you know, really wanting to be in fashion and was to some degree. And then I climbed through all of these different endeavors. I learned through marketing, I was very turned on to this course that I took and then worked for. I did it all of these different things. And now I'm getting ready to kind of launch my own enterprise and utilize all of the skills and the pieces of knowledge and and expertize and put it all together with the top three pieces of advice you would give that individual knowing what you know now.   [00:40:54] OK. Since when did you say top three? Yes. OK. So I would I would absolutely tell her to find someone who is going to not take any excuses but is willing to push her because even eagles need to push mount. The second the second thing is to.   [00:41:21] To speak up.   [00:41:24] To absolutely speak up and find the courage to do so. I would say using this, I would I would chair that three step process with her of the formula, because in the moment of making a decision to step outside of your comfort zone, you have to have courage. And it's about the little things. So is having finding the courage to speak up. And I would say that thing would be. And there are lots of things I would say. It's about. I mean, I could squeeze a fourth one and be sure to yourself. To add to find your purpose. Two, to pursue finding a purpose. And when you do sue it all your might. Yes. Don't wait until you're my age, huh?   [00:42:20] I think you're killing it. So. And I love age. I've decided I'm very proud. I'm forty three. I think that a lot of my audience probably even knows my birthday by now because I don't think that you can accomplish what I've accomplished without being around 43. So to pretend to be happy young would be to be unaccomplished. And I would trade up any day. So I have your top three as find someone who won't accept excuses and push you. No. To speak up and find the courage to do so. And number three, be good to yourself and find your true purpose.   [00:42:56] Yes, I love those.   [00:42:57] I know you have a name for because I know what I'm going to be tapping into your zone of genius as to all of that. And so I thought it might be pressing you a bit hard. And I think it was beautifully done. I love those. And I want to say, Tamsin, thank you so much for taking the time to speak with me today. I know you're busy. Everyone is at once. Thank you. At home and available, but also very busy. And I really appreciate you taking the time, giving us your honest rhetoric.   [00:43:20] Appreciate you having me on. I've really enjoyed the time with you. Thank you, Patricia.   [00:43:25] Absolutely. And for everyone listening, we've been speaking with Tamsin Napier-Munn. You can find out more on raw talks, Academy dot com. And thank you for giving me your time today.   [00:43:36] And until we speak again next time. Remember to stay safe and always bet on yourself. Slainte.

Philip Green (19 July 1911 – 6 October 1982), sometimes credited as Harry Philip Green, was a film and television composer and conductor. He composed more than 150 film scores including The Yellow Balloon (1952), Carry on Admiral (1957), The Square Peg(1958, together with several other Norman Wisdom films), The League of Gentlemen (1960), Victim (1961), The Singer Not the Song (1961), and The Intelligence Men (1965). His themes for John and Julie (1954) and The March Hare (1956) both won Ivor Novello Awards.[2] He also composed the themes for the popular 1960s television crime series Ghost Squad and Sergeant Cork. Like many composers of film music and light music, he also wrote prolifically for production music libraries and as a result, a number of his compositions are familiar through their use in film, radio and television programmes. Many of these works are now published by Carlin Production Music.

The high-street fashion empire of Philip Green is on the rocks. The UK retail tycoon has secured creditor support for a complex three-year overhaul that will involve rent reductions, store closures and a halving of the company’s pension deficit reduction payments. But will this be enough to save the business?

We discuss weekly political events. Philip Green has been criticized for using the power of his money to muzzle the press however the Lord who ousted him used his own exceptional power almost certainly because he did not like him. We discuss that competence may win you a position in society but likeability determines whether you stay there. Women in the army is another example of political correctness which insists on equal outcome which ignores the fact that equal outcome may be ultimately damaging because it ignores individual differences and shows a lack of understanding of the real basic right of equal opportunity. We discuss one factor religion has which is one key to maintaining leadership and that is a fervent love of your leader, in this case God.

Daily Devotion:   Balance is a necessity for your life.  However, it doesn't happen on it's own, you must fight for it.  Create intentional balance for your life.  Develop better boundary management over your task lists.  Remember, Jesus gave so much of Himself but He also took time for Himself.  Mark 6:31, "And he said to them, “Come away by yourselves to a desolate place and rest a while.” For many were coming and going, and they had no leisure even to eat." It's all about quality of life and finding a happy balance between work and friends and family. -Philip Green       Stolen Lunches is a bible study community of believers.  We hold men, women, and couples bible studies.  We have annual retreats, missions trips and weekly prayer calls.  You can join us from anywhere in the world.  Sign up for our newsletters & stay connected.   Steal away with us and be fed by God~ Stolen Lunches.
