In this special Pride Week episode, I sit down with broadcaster Rich Clarke for a deeply personal conversation about identity, authenticity, and the toll of hiding in plain sight. Rich shares his journey of navigating a high-profile media career while carrying a secret identity, and how years of masking his true sexuality led to burnout, breakdown, and ultimately, a turning point.We explore what it really means to come out — not just to the world, but to ourselves — and how the weight of shame, fear, and societal expectation can shape (and limit) our lives. From therapy and sobriety to standing on stage at Brighton Pride and finally saying, “I'm gay,” Rich reflects on what healing has looked like for him, and why connection, honesty, and self-compassion are essential to moving forward.Find Rich Clarke:Instagram: @therichclarkeListen to This Was Always Me Podcast: https://www.globalplayer.com/podcasts/42L3VY/Stay Connected with Hurt to Healing:Instagram: instagram.com/hurttohealingpodTikTok: tiktok.com/@hurttohealingpodLinkedIn: linkedin.com/company/hurt-to-healingSubstack: substack.com/@hurttohealingWebsite: hurttohealing.co.ukIf you're struggling, consider therapy with our paid partner.

What happens if the dip keeps on dipping? When the market falls, no one knows:1. How big the fall with be. 2. How long the fall will last.3. When the market will bounce back.This is exactly why I don't personally 'buy the dip'. Long story short, because it's impossible to time the best time to invest. Which is why only investing when the market ‘dips' is a losing strategy over the long term. The much better strategy - in my opinion - is the following two steps:1. Stay invested At all times. After all, I don't need this money for the long term. And it's impossible to time the right moments to buy and sell. 2. Keep investing‘Cost averaging' by investing every single month. No matter what.I do this personally by primarily investing into low cost global index funds and ETFs. No need to overcomplicate your investing strategy. Then let time and compound interest grow your wealth Listen to the episode for the full details.-----------------------------------------------

In this episode of the Accounting Influencer podcast, Rob Brown discusses the dual nature of artificial intelligence in accounting, emphasizing its potential to enhance content creation and personal branding while cautioning against losing authenticity. He advocates for leveraging AI as a tool to amplify one's voice and ideas rather than allowing it to replace them. The conversation highlights the importance of being visible and vocal in the accounting profession, using content to build authority and trust, and the need for professionals to maintain their unique perspectives in a landscape increasingly influenced by AI.TakeawaysArtificial intelligence is both a threat and an opportunity for accounting.Being an ambassador for your brand is crucial in leadership roles.Content creation is essential for visibility and authority.AI can simplify content creation but lacks authenticity.Authenticity is key to building trust and influence.Content should reflect personal experiences and insights.AI can help generate ideas but should not replace personal voice.Professionals must differentiate themselves in a crowded market.Playing it safe with content can lead to loss of visibility.Building a personal brand requires sharing unique stories and insights.TitlesAI's Role in the Future of AccountingSound Bites"AI is killing accounting.""AI doesn't have a soul.""Don't let AI dull your edge."The Accounting Influencers Podcast, hosted by Rob Brown, is one of the world's leading shows for accounting leaders, professionals, finance specialists, software vendors, tech providers and influencers.

I don't think so.As we go through in this episode, the big mistake that people often make at these uncertain moments is panic selling. We need to avoid that.

Rory Sutherland is one of my heroes. You might not know his name, but you've definitely been influenced by his work— as the Vice Chairman of Ogilvy UK he has shaped the face of marketing and advertising as we know it today. He's also become a recent TikTok phenomenon as others have realised what an absolute genius this man is. I was beyond excited to have him join me on the show.Rory is not only a marketeer, but an expert in behavioural science, talking me through how trends work and change over time. We spoke about memetics; how a herd mentality can massively dictate our tastes and the important role social awkwardness plays in swaying opinions. I also asked him about the best and worst marketing successes and failures, from Ryanair to bubble tea, nuclear power to wearing shorts in winter.This conversation was brimming with great advice - it's definitely a conversation I'll be coming back to; my main takeaway was to never blindly follow logic, but to question and push to boundaries to create something new!You can also follow us on Instagram and Tiktok @greatcompanypodcast and if you've got thoughts, questions and comments, you can email us at greatcompany@jampotproductions.co.ukIf you or anyone you know has been affected by suicidal thoughts, you can head to CALM to find support: www.thecalmzone.net--THE CREDITSExec Producer: Jemima RathboneAssistant Producer: Gurlina HeerVideo: Jake Ji & Ryley KirbySocial Media: Laura CoughlanGreat Company is an original podcast from JamPot Hosted on Acast.

I'd love to hear from you drop me a text!Welcome to The Scrumptious WomanIn this powerful episode, I sit down with Nikki Wetherell, a somatic sexologist and trainee counsellor, for an intimate conversation about trauma, healing, sexuality, and the journey to authenticity. Nikki shares her deeply personal story of navigating sexual trauma, birth trauma, coming out later in life, and exploring polyamory while maintaining a loving marriage and family life.Episode Summary: Nikki opens up about her path to becoming a somatic sexologist and her belief in the power of combining traditional therapy with bodywork. We discuss the importance of safe touch, the wisdom of the body, and how trauma can resurface during significant life events like childbirth. Nikki bravely shares her experience of remembering and processing sexual trauma, and how feeling truly safe for the first time allowed her to explore and acknowledge her queer identity in her late 30s.Key Takeaways:The vital importance of trusting your body's wisdom and finding practitioners who will listen to and honour that wisdomHow feeling safe can unlock deeper understanding of ourselves and our authentic identitiesThe complex journey of coming out later in life while maintaining existing relationships and family dynamicsThe challenges of navigating polyamory when partners are monogamousThe significance of having proper support and poly-informed therapists when exploring non-traditional relationship structuresNikki reminds us that healing isn't linear - it's more like an infinity sign where we revisit similar themes but with greater awareness each time. Her story beautifully illustrates how authenticity, though challenging, is worth pursuing despite societal conditioning and expectations.Resources: Connect with Nikki:Instagram: @CelestialSoulCoachWebsite: celestialsoul.co.ukIf you enjoyed this episode, please share it with anyone who might benefit from hearing this powerful conversation about healing, authenticity, and embracing all parts of ourselves. Join me next time, for another taboo-breaking, boundary-pushing episode of The Scrumptious Woman.Much LoveJuliette x  Find out more about Juliette Karaman here: https://feelfullyyou.com Follow Juliette on instagram here: https://www.instagram.com/juliettekaraman/ Follow Juliette on Facebook here: https://www.facebook.com/juliette.karamanvanschaardenburg Don't forget to Rate and leave a review so more people can tune in and the ripple effect spreads further.

Amol Rajan is a master of tough conversations - from conducting Phillip Schofield's first interview to speaking to the likes of Novak Djokovic, Richard Branson and Greta Thunberg. However, I never imagined that I would find my conversation with Amol so challenging for myself, effortlessly opening me up.Having become the editor of the Independent aged 29, Amol's hard work ethic has seen him take over from Jeremy Paxman as host of University Challenge and presenting Radio 4's Today Programme. But behind the glamour of an illustrious career, Amol and his wife were living through the rollercoaster of IVF and grieving the loss of his father. We talk about our relationships with our fathers and cherishing the time we have together.This conversation went a direction I did not foresee but am so thankful for - it reminded me of the power of conversation and connection to unlock parts of ourselves perhaps we didn't realise we had inside.You can also follow us on Instagram and Tiktok @greatcompanypodcast and if you've got thoughts, questions and comments, you can email us at greatcompany@jampotproductions.co.ukIf you or anyone you know has been affected by suicidal thoughts, you can head to CALM to find support: www.thecalmzone.net--THE CREDITSExec Producer: Jemima RathboneAssistant Producer: Gurlina HeerVideo: Jake Ji & Ryley KirbySocial Media: Laura CoughlanGreat Company is an original podcast from JamPot Hosted on Acast.

In today's episode, I'm thrilled to welcome back Richard Shorter, also known as 'Non-Perfect Dad', for a deep-dive conversation that every sports parent needs to hear. Rich brings his unique perspective as both a Baptist minister and a "conversation architect" who works with sports organisations, schools, and families to navigate the complex world of sports parenting. We explore the challenging emotional landscape parents face when supporting young athletes - from managing our own reactions on the sidelines to making tough decisions about how much to push or protect. I share some personal stories about parenting my own kids in sport, and Rich offers brilliant insights about what he calls the "undisciplined squads of emotion" that we all face as sports parents.Key Timestamps:
