    Rebuilding belonging after service with Baz Melia MBE

    I'd love your feedback, send me a message In this episode of the Simple Reflections Podcast, I am joined by Baz Melia from the Always a Rifleman Programme to discuss the realities of military mental health, life after service, and the power of community.  Baz explains why “reaching in” matters more than “reaching out,” how early intervention can save lives, and why veterans often need support that understands military culture.  Our conversation also explores the need to rebuild belonging after service, the importance of peer networks, and the launch of the The Riflemen’s Association as a way to connect Riflemen with each other long after their boots have been hung up.  The Always a Rifleman Programme is part of RIFLES Regimental Headquarters and exists to help members of our Regimental family when they are in crisis. Here’s a link to the website if you’d like to know more: https://theriflesnetwork.co.uk/page/aarp  We mentioned The Rifleman’s Family Gala Dinner at Silverstone on 5 September. The following link is only accessible to Riflemen who are members of Swift.

    I'd love your feedback, send me a message What if the very things you think disqualify you from serving others are actually the ingredients that make your contribution priceless?  In this episode of the Simple Reflections Podcast, I’m rejoined by my friend Jacqueline “Mama J” Hollows to explore closing a beloved social enterprise, starting again, and trusting life’s nudges into new roles, including her trusteeship with A Band of Brothers.  We talk about supporting changemakers to be both deeply impactful and properly paid, the unseen ripple effects of small acts like prison letter-writing, and why nothing you’ve lived is ever wasted.   Jacqueline shares how letting go of “the prison lady” identity revealed a fuller, braver version of herself, and why being all of you is the greatest service you can offer.​  I’d love to know: where in your own life are you being nudged to show up more fully as yourself, even if you don’t yet know how it will all unfold?  Learn more about Jacqueline’s Impact Activator: https://www.skool.com/impactactivator/about  Jacqueline has offered you a free copy of her book, “Let them Feel It”: https://dl.bookfunnel.com/jewjrx6kfz  This Episode on YouTube: https://youtu.be/tv41iuWHYxg  Support the show Follow the Simple Reflections Podcast on your favourite platform: https://www.buzzsprout.com/2132149/follow  Subscribe to the Simple Reflections YouTube Channel: http://www.youtube.com/@SimplicityinMind Dave has written a book about what he's learned from the first 80 episodes of the podcast called "Simple Reflections: Seeing What’s Already There ".

    Dare to be different with Louise Edwards

    I'd love your feedback, send me a message Do you ever stop to ask the one big question your leadership is avoiding – and what might be possible if you dared to be different?  In the latest episode of the Simple Reflections Podcast, I sit down with Louise Edwards, founder of Bold Space Coaching, to explore how imagination, “creative conflict,” and truly human leadership can transform teams, culture and results in an age of constant change.   Louise shares how her background in design and IKEA leadership shaped her belief that growth starts with holding honest space, rattling the cage “with love,” and moving from A-to-not-A instead of endlessly repeating what’s always worked, especially when we dare to be different in how we lead and what we prioritise.  Louise is a leadership and creative strategy coach and the owner of Bold Space Coaching, helping leaders and teams build braver, more imaginative and more human workplaces.  I’d love to know: what’s the big question you’re not asking yourself or your team right now—and what might change if you dared to be different?  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/boldspace_coaching_consultancy/  LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/louise-edwards-b2126b6b/  Email: louise@boldspacecoaching.com  This Episode on YouTube: https://youtu.be/8hsYVWvdl_8 Support the show Follow the Simple Reflections Podcast on your favourite platform: https://www.buzzsprout.com/2132149/follow  Subscribe to the Simple Reflections YouTube Channel: http://www.youtube.com/@SimplicityinMind Dave has written a book about what he's learned from the first 80 episodes of the podcast called "Simple Reflections: Seeing What’s Already There ".

    Failing Forward and the Freedom to Reinvent with Steve Chandler

    I'd love your feedback, send me a message What if every apparent failure in your life was actually a disguised invitation to reinvent yourself and serve more deeply?  In this episode of the Simple Reflections Podcast, I sit down with legendary coach and author Steve Chandler to explore how “failing forward,” curiosity, and genuine conversation can transform our experience of life and work.  We talk about moving from outside-in struggle to an inside-out understanding, the freedom of seeing that there’s nothing fundamentally wrong with us, and the quiet power of simply being with another human in a world addicted to distraction.  Steve also shares how, even at 81 and semi-retired, he still feels he’s barely scratching the surface of what coaching and conversation can do.  I’d love to know: where in your own life are you being invited to reinvent yourself, and what might become possible if you met that with open curiosity?  This Episode on YouTube: https://youtu.be/dtWeCpmSBOU Support the show Follow the Simple Reflections Podcast on your favourite platform: https://www.buzzsprout.com/2132149/follow  Subscribe to the Simple Reflections YouTube Channel: http://www.youtube.com/@SimplicityinMind Dave has written a book about what he's learned from the first 80 episodes of the podcast called "Simple Reflections: Seeing What’s Already There ".
