Back in the 1700s, in a spa town outside of London, Thomas Bayes, a Presbyterian minister and amateur mathematician, invented a formula that lets you figure out how likely something is to happen based on what you already know. It changed the world. Today, pollsters use it to forecast election results and bookies to predict Super Bowl scores. For neuroscientists, it explains how our brains work; for computer scientists, it's the principle behind artificial intelligence. In this episode, we explore the modern-day applications of this game-changing theorem with the help of Tom Chivers, author of the new book "Everything Is Predictable: How Bayesian Statistics Explain Our World."

Jezey and Matt are the co-founders of the Wolf Pack Health and Wellness. They are dedicated to helping people reconnect with the earth, each other and themselves. The wellness ranch spread over 21 acres just west of Brisbane offers country escapes, NDIS respite stays, wellness events and private counselling and development. The ranch is a hub for peace, relaxation, enlightened moments, and optimised living. When covid hit, being in nature surrounded by animals made life easier for Jezey and her family. She believes reconnecting with nature could help people improve their mental health and wellbeing which led her to start the wellbeing clinic. Guests can connect with horses at her ranch. She says horses can teach us a lot about leadership and working as a team. Horses are known for their ability to work as a team.  The alpha relies on other horses to feed her information to make critical decisions for the herd. According to Jezey, this demonstrates true leadership where it is not about being a boss and dictating everything but rather trusting the wisdom of the team. As horses can sense disunity within a group,  it takes teamwork and a unified voice to command horses. Working with horses allows people to sharpen their ability to build a high performing team. For people living in the city, Jezey advises people to go to a park and take the time to consciously be in touch with nature.About your host: Lauren Karan, Director and Founder of Karan & Co. With over a decade of experience as a recruiter and development coach, Lauren Karan found that her priorities rapidly changed after the birth of her two children.

It's essential to find true alignment in decision making when operating from ‘the We' perspective, whether it's intimate or business, to help us accomplish our goals, stay on track with our mission, and develop a deeper connection with each other. And, it's not always easy!In this episode, we discuss our agreement to put ‘the We' first when making decisions and work through an example of what we do when we aren't in agreement about how to move forward. There's an elevated level of autonomy when we're making decisions together. By operating in “the We,” there's space to discover freedom for the greater endeavor that we can create together. In short, with greater responsibility comes greater freedom, which is far from the typical ‘I' mindset. But, what happens when we're not in the same place around how to work towards our goals? We've been bumping up against the decision to share more about our intimate experiences on the show. We share what our process looks like to get into each other's world and work towards a decision that honors both of our needs.

Sonia McDonald is the founder of Leadership HQ and an award-winning author. Her books include titles like Leadership Attitude, Just Rocket, and First comes Courage. Sonia is also a regular contributor in the Australian HRD Magazine, Smart, Healthy Women, and Women's Business Media. Named as one of the ‘Top 250 Influential Women In The World', as well as ‘Top 100 Australian Entrepreneurs' by Richtopia, Sonia is internationally recognised as an expert in leadership and culture, organisational development, neuroscience, kindness, and courage. In this episode Sonia explains that sharing her insights came after her life fell apart and she moved back to Australia from China to start a new life as a single parent. For Sonia, the magic of what she does lies in empowering people to realise that sometimes it's not about teaching an old dog new tricks, but that a little bit of self-awareness and empathy can go a long way. In the spirit of ‘building doors', Sonia has long believed that there was a gap in recognising Australia's key leaders that wasn't tied to a specific sector.

Learn how the fascia connective tissue is considered our sixth sense, or proprioception, where we are in space relationship to the earth, around people and with gravity. Stress is part of life and when necessary, can be a GOOD thing, because it taps in our body's natural responses of avoiding danger and things that can harm us. Yet, today more than ever we are overstimulated and our stress levels are out of control. The key is tapping into our abilities to respond to stress rather than react to it. When we respond, we maintain control - and when practiced we can access a cognitive state and choose how we respond to what's going on around us.Also give yourself grace, this is a practice. Ways we can tap into my mind body connection and have a healthier relationship with stress: journalling going for a walk or run with music that has no lyrics (I have a great mix on Spotify called Music for Mind, Body, Soul - follow me at Kay Cote) Ask your body how are you today, allow yourself to feel Practice Yoga Use a guided meditation like A Meditation for Intuitive Guidance by Mindful in Minutes with Kelly on Spotify Get in physical activity to strengthen your mind, body connection. Physical activity helps strengthen communication between your mind and body and gives you awareness of your body, how its moving, and what sensations are happening Check out Lauren's fitness and movement on her website, the alignedlifestudio.com where she offers a 7 day free trial. Give yourself grace, this is a practice, the aim isn't perfection Check out Lauren's books, including The Hidden Key to Ignite Your Core, Empower Your Body, Release Stress and Re-Align Your Life.

Have you ever explored your Human Design? A couple months ago I was a guest on The Spiritualpreneur podcast where I had my Human Design chart read and to say I was blown away is an understatement. Human Design is a mix of astrology, the I Ching, Kabbalah, and Vedic philosophy and all of that turns into essentially an instruction manual for being you. It can tell you everything from your best career path, to how to eat, to how to improve your relationships. And it's one of my favorite ways to check-in and make adjustments when I'm feeling stalled or unsure. Now that I've got my own personal HD guidebook, I'm sharing how I'm integrating my Human Design into my business and everyday life.

I know, it's hard to believe, but Episode #1 of This Old Marketing still has not sold yet as an NFT. Maybe you forgot? You can bid on it here at Opensea. The social audio battle continues this week, with Spotify buying social radio player Betty Labs, while LinkedIn is about to release their own version of Clubhouse. And guess what? Medium is pivoting again. This time, they are looking at a Substack model. Rants and raves include a rant from Joe about Substack's $650 million valuation, while Robert rants about marketers only focusing on numbers.

Dov Gordon is a coach who helps consultants, coaches and experts get ideal clients. He is the founder and head coach of The Alchemist Entrepreneur, which works on the core concepts of your marketing message and systematic implementation.   On today’s episode, I sit down with Dov Gordon, a coach who helps consultants, coaches and experts land their ideal clients. We dive into precisely how you should be crafting your tagline or hooks that will allow you to get more clients. My big takeaway from today’s conversation is Dov’s three step process that he walks through with clients when he’s helping them develop their taglines and hooks.   In this broadcast, Dov and I talk about:   What led Dov to enter the consultant space How did Dov use the “live it to learn it” mentality In what ways did Dov use experiential learning without a college education What is the “path of mastery” and how it applies to a marketing funnel How to lead a customer through an experience  The importance of connecting with a master/mentor to save yourself time What is considered interesting content for an ideal customer/client How the ideal client is concerned with a problem that they have and don’t want, and a result they want and don’t have Why starting simple, such as assessing a general problem, engages further interest in the consultation In what ways can a consultant shift positions to attract higher end clients Why a consultant should ask themselves what problems they help solve and what results they can enable When you gain the trust of an ideal client, how do you effectively close   How to Connect with Dov:   dovgordon.net Dov’s gift for In The Trenches listeners   Get the Latest Broadcasts of In The Trenches on Your Favorite Podcast Platform:   Subscribe to In The Trenches on iTunes Listen to In The Trenches on Spotify Get your weekly dose of In The Trenches on Google Play   How You Can Support In The Trenches   Did you enjoy today's broadcast of In The Trenches?
