    Patience, Leadership And The Courage To Follow Your Own Thinking - With Galahad Clark

    What happens when you challenge assumptions that everyone else accepts as normal? In this episode, I’m joined by Galahad Clark, founder and CEO of Vivobarefoot - a company that has spent the last two decades questioning some of the most fundamental ideas about footwear, movement, health, and business. As a seventh-generation member of the Clark family, Galahad could easily have followed a traditional path. Instead, he chose to challenge it. What began as a simple question about how feet are designed to function has grown into a global movement that is reshaping the way people think about footwear, human health, and our relationship with the natural world. We talk about independent thinking, patience, leadership, innovation, and the courage it takes to go against established systems. We explore the influence of Quaker values on business, why some of the best decisions are made in nature, and how staying true to a bigger purpose can be both the hardest and most important thing a business can do.=== A thoughtful and wide-ranging conversation about questioning what you've been told, trusting your instincts, and having the courage to follow your own thinking when the established path no longer makes sense. This episode is in partnership with Performance Without Toxicity, the exhibition at Fabrica X at The Mills Fabrica exploring the future of performance apparel. Produced by Chatterbox Audio.

    Purpose, Intuition And The Courage To Build Differently – With Paul Kerssens

    What happens when you stop asking how things have always been done and start asking how they could be done differently? In this episode, I’m joined by Paul Kerssens, CEO and co-founder of United Repair Centre - a pioneering social enterprise helping some of the world’s leading fashion and outdoor brands rethink waste, value, and responsibility through repair. But this conversation goes far beyond garments. We talk about purpose, intuition, leadership, manifestation, and what it takes to build a business that creates environmental, social, and commercial impact at the same time. Paul shares the journey that led him from corporate life to entrepreneurship, the power of taking time to think, and why some of the most important decisions we make begin by listening to ourselves. A thoughtful and inspiring conversation about trusting your instincts, challenging established systems, and having the courage to build something differently.

    Empathy, Integrity And The Courage To Challenge Systems - With Amy Powney

    What does it mean to lead with empathy, integrity and care? In this episode, I’m joined by Amy Powney - fashion designer, activist, founder of AKYN, and one of the most influential voices in sustainable fashion today. After winning the Vogue Designer Fashion Fund, Amy used the opportunity to build a fully traceable collection from field to finished garment - a journey captured in the award-nominated film Fashion Reimagined. Since then, she has continued to challenge the fashion industry from the inside out, building a business rooted in responsibility, transparency, and integrity. We talk about empathy, activism, emotional sensitivity, leadership, and what it means to keep speaking up when something doesn’t feel right - even when it makes you the different person in the room. A thoughtful, honest conversation about trusting yourself, staying open-hearted, and having the courage to challenge systems that no longer make sense. Produced by Chatterbox Audio.

    Intention, Balance And the Courage To Prioritise - With Julia Davis

    What does it really take to hold ambition, motherhood, career, and self-respect in the same life - without burning out or losing yourself? In this episode, I’m joined by Julia Davis - Great Britain ultra runner, trail athlete, coach, mother, and merchandiser - whose achievements are world-class, but whose approach to life is even more compelling. From earning her GB vest to racing some of the toughest mountain routes on the planet, Julia performs at an elite level. Yet what stands out most is the way she chooses her life deliberately - carving out time for running, protecting space for her family, and refusing to measure herself by anyone else’s ruler. We talk about guilt, discipline, adventure, time management, reclaiming your identity after feeling lost, and the courage it takes to prioritise what fills your cup - even when it feels selfish. A powerful, expansive conversation about building a life that works because it’s built on intention. Produced by Chatterbox Audio.

    Trusting Your Gut And Finding Your Way - With Gemma Lessinger

    In this episode, I’m joined by Gemma Lessinger, who shares how a forced pause during lockdown led her to reconnect with something she’d left behind - and how that moment changed the direction of her life. After twenty years in a demanding career, Gemma began listening to her gut in a deeper way, learning to balance determination with intuition as she built something entirely her own. We talk about confidence (and how it grows through action), the difference between stubbornness and self-trust, and why meaningful change doesn’t have to come from dramatic leaps - but from steady, intentional steps. A grounded, honest conversation about backing yourself, letting go of who you thought you had to be, and finding your way - in your own time. Produced by Chatterbox Audio.

    Curiosity, Freedom And The Courage To Change Lanes - With Lindsey Holland

    What happens when you give yourself total freedom to try - and stop worrying about getting it “right”? In this episode, I’m joined by Lindsey Holland - leading fashion creator, founder of Marnie Rays women’s surf retreats, and a creative who’s built her life by following curiosity, taking risks, and choosing again when things no longer fit. Lindsey shares how her path has shifted through NHS physiotherapy, fashion, business, relationships, solo travel, and building something entirely her own - not through having a master plan, but by trusting herself to experiment and move forward without guarantees. We talk about burnout, losing yourself inside a relationship, not fearing failure, and how giving yourself permission to try creates deep self-trust over time. A grounding, expansive conversation for anyone at a crossroads - or quietly wondering if there’s another way to live and work that feels more like them. Produced by Chatterbox Audio.

    Reinvention Through Meaning, Purpose & Generosity - With Dani Binnington

    What does it really mean to follow yourself when life takes you somewhere you never expected? This month, I’m joined by Dani Binnington - patient advocate, yoga teacher, well-being expert and founder of Menopause and Cancer, a nonprofit supporting people navigating treatment-induced menopause after cancer. Through her own lived experience, Dani has created the community, conversations and practical tools she once wished existed - and her work is transforming lives. In this episode, we talk about resilience, self-trust and building something meaningful from life’s twists and turns. Dani’s story is a powerful example of what it looks like to honour what matters most, follow the path that feels true, and turn personal experience into purpose. A warm, open and grounding conversation for anyone ready to grow into their next chapter - one honest step at a time. Produced by Chatterbox Audio.
