    Finding Your Voice Through Change with Alice Chin

    Finding Your Voice Through Change with Alice Chin... In this episode of the Online Entrepreneur Academy podcast, I am joined by Alice Chin, founder of Breakthrough Coaching. Alice shares her journey from the corporate world into coaching, a decision shaped by years of reflection, learning, and a deep desire to help people navigate change without losing themselves along the way. We explore what it really takes to start your own business, the loneliness that can come with it, and why mindset, neuroscience, and intentional living matter more than ever in a world full of disruption. This is a thoughtful, honest conversation about resilience, wellbeing, and finding clarity when life and work feel overwhelming. Ideal for solopreneurs, entrepreneurs, and anyone feeling stuck or stretched.

    Leadership, Alignment, and Scaling with Confidence, with Keith Peers

    In this episode of the Online Entrepreneur Academy podcast, I am joined by Keith Peers from Canada, founder of The Trusted Advisor and a coach with 30+ years’ experience helping small business owners and leadership teams grow with clarity. Keith unpacks why so many capable business owners get stuck, especially “technical” professionals who are brilliant at the work but were never taught how to run the business. You’ll hear Keith’s practical approach to building alignment across leadership teams, defining purpose and values (so decisions actually stick), and setting goals that don’t disappear by February. We also talk about hiring A-players, coaching people up or out with empathy, and why growth often stalls because leaders struggle to let go. If you’re a solopreneur, founder, or leading a small team and want a smarter way to scale, this one will give you a fresh perspective and real takeaways. linkedin.com/kpeers2001 https://www.facebook.com/tandrgroupcanada https://www.instagram.com/tandrgroupcanada Do message us, suggestions, feedback guests you'd like to have in a conversation here?

  3. Carbon Removal, Biochar, and Regenerative Leadership with Catherine Daley

    Carbon Removal, Biochar, and Regenerative Leadership with Catherine Daley

    After our short annual break this is our first episode of 2026. And...I can’t think of a better way to start the year than with a conversation about regeneration, purpose, and how we build businesses that truly matter. In this episode I’m joined by Catherine Daley, coach, facilitator and product designer by background, who is now building something genuinely exciting; a carbon removal business using biochar. Catherine brings a brilliant mix of real world manufacturing experience, leadership work, and neurodiversity coaching, and she’s applying all of it to one big question: how can a business leave a positive footprint rather than just “do less harm”? We talk about what regenerative business actually means in plain English, nature having a voice in decision making, carbon credits without the jargon, and why you don’t need everything perfect before you start.  This is thoughtful, practical, and encouragingly hopeful.

    From Expelled Schoolgirl to OBE: Anne Bates on Disability, Change & Speaking Up

    In this episode of the Online Entrepreneur Academy podcast, I’m joined by the brilliant and wonderfully frank Anne Bates OBE – a woman who has reinvented her life more than once, not by choice, but through sheer determination, humour, and a refusal to stay quiet. Anne shares how she went from being expelled from school and working as a secretary, to becoming a nursery nurse, a college lecturer, and eventually Chair of the Disabled Persons Transport Advisory Committee, advising the UK government on accessible transport. Along the way, she was awarded an OBE – which she wryly rebrands as “Other Buggers’ Efforts.” We talk about: How serious illness and disability forced a career change she never asked forThe realities of life as a wheelchair user in a world designed for everyone elseWhy language, assumptions, and “special assistance” can help – or completely miss the pointThe difference between the medical model and the social model of disabilityHow humour, stubbornness, and a sharp eye for injustice can drive real changeThis is a conversation about access, dignity, and unexpected career pivots. It’s honest, funny, and quietly fierce – especially if you’ve ever felt like a square peg being shoved into a round hole.

    Gabriel Topman on Differentiation, Alignment, and Growth

    In this episode, I’m joined by the remarkable Gabriel Topman - a coaching entrepreneur, investor, and strategic thinker with a seriously impressive background in business growth and brand positioning. Gabriel brings something refreshingly different to the table: a mix of traditional business sense, sharp strategic thinking, and modern insight into how entrepreneurs can truly stand out online. We explore why he runs not one, but three websites, how “alignment” and “differentiation” can transform your business, and why even the best ideas fail without a solid strategy behind them. It’s a fascinating conversation that blends depth with practicality - whether you’re an experienced entrepreneur or just starting out, this one will give you plenty to think about.

    Educator to Virtual Assistant: Andy Kyle on Career Changes

    Hello and welcome back to the Online Entrepreneur Academy podcast. In this episode I’m thrilled to introduce Andy Kyle , a former secondary school language teacher who spent 14 years in the classroom, and management roles, before making a bold pivot into running his own virtual assistant business. In this conversation, Andy shares what sparked the change, how he mapped his transferable skills to the corporate world, and why flexibility for family life became non-negotiable. We get into the nuts and bolts of starting from zero, including LinkedIn outreach, landing first clients, and learning new systems. He also offers honest advice for teachers who are considering a move: take time for self-reflection, make a practical financial plan, and find communities that lift you up. We finish with our Desert Island choices for a bit of fun. If you’re a teacher or solopreneur who wants more freedom, or you’re curious about turning classroom skills into a thriving service, this one’s for you.  Check the notes below for Andy’s website and LinkedIn.
