The Renny Show

Rachel Haith & Jenny Gordon

Your fortnightly dose of honesty and positivity with Rachel + Jenny = Renny. Two practicing Humans and Coaches, the premise of our show is that we talk about everything from socks to self-belief, and all sorts in between. We each prepare 3 questions in advance, but the questions are a complete surprise on the day to the other presenter, so it really could go anywhere; and it usually does! We also have regular guest slots on the show, so if you are INSPIRING and BRILLIANT then we'd love to have you on as a guest some time.Music from #Uppbeat (free for Creators!): https://uppbeat.io/t/andrey-rossi/seize-the-day License code: IXCNEBVQPQVTC05X

    Episode 98 - Being Misunderstood

    How often have you ever been misunderstood when you're trying to communicate something? How often have you misunderstood what someone else is trying to tell you? Communication is so important, but it's really easy for it to be misunderstood and for 'interpretations' of facts to be incorrect, so we wanted to explore this further. Let us know what you think. We talked about how you can try and ensure you're not misunderstood; recent experiences of being misunderstood; 'Miss Understanding' - one of the fabulous drag queens from Priscilla Queen Of The Desert The Musical and the importance of hearing other points of view when making decisions; times we misunderstood someone else; how being misunderstood can help us improve the way we communicate in future; and top tips for helping if you're in a misunderstood muddle. If you have any tips you'd like to share, then please contact us via our socials: Instagram: @TheRennyShowPodcast Facebook: The Renny Show Podcast Music from #Uppbeat (free for Creators!): https://uppbeat.io/t/andrey-rossi/seize-the-day License code: IXCNEBVQPQVTC05X Music from #Uppbeat (free for Creators!): https://uppbeat.io/t/andrey-rossi/seize-the-day License code: IXCNEBVQPQVTC05X We'd love to connect: Rachel: WEB: http://www.inspiredlifegroup.co.uk LINKEDIN: https://www.linkedin.com/in/Rachel-Haith FACEBOOK: http://www.facebook.com/inspiredlifegroup Jenny: WEB: https://jenuineconsulting.com/ LINKEDIN: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jenuineconsulting/ FACEBOOK: https://www.facebook.com/jenny.gordon.370

    Episode 97 - The Bestest!

    We thought we'd do something a little different for this one - must be something in the air with the fact we're nearly on our 100th episode! Rather than write 3 questions each that are kept a secret until they're asked, we wrote a bunch of different categories on post-it notes, folded them up and then took it in turns to choose one at random, then having to describe what our 'bestest' or favourite thing was in that category. It was loads of fun so we hope you enjoy it too and please do share some of your bestest things with us too! The categories we had to pick our 'bestest' in were: Food, holiday destinations, cleaning (are you a bath or a shower person), books, musicals, seasons, tv shows, and takeaways. It was great to mix it up a little bit and try something new and we definitely had fun with it, so we hope you enjoy it too. If you'd like to read either of the books we mentioned, here they are: Stephen Fry - Odyssey Kathryn Stockett - The Calamity Club See you next time, bye for now :-) Music from #Uppbeat (free for Creators!): https://uppbeat.io/t/andrey-rossi/seize-the-day License code: IXCNEBVQPQVTC05X Music from #Uppbeat (free for Creators!): https://uppbeat.io/t/andrey-rossi/seize-the-day License code: IXCNEBVQPQVTC05X We'd love to connect: Rachel: WEB: http://www.inspiredlifegroup.co.uk LINKEDIN: https://www.linkedin.com/in/Rachel-Haith FACEBOOK: http://www.facebook.com/inspiredlifegroup Jenny: WEB: https://jenuineconsulting.com/ LINKEDIN: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jenuineconsulting/ FACEBOOK: https://www.facebook.com/jenny.gordon.370

    Episode 96 - Who Are We? Part 2 - Jenny

    It's time for part 2 of the 'Who Are We?' interviews, this time it's Rachel interviewing Jenny. With our 100th episode fast approaching, we thought it would be great to interview each other to help give more insight in to who we are. Hopefully those of you that are new here will learn plenty about us and those of you who have been here a while might learn something new. Rachel asked Jenny how she would describe herself if she had to write a letter of reference about herself to give to someone else. She then went on to ask about the childhood experiences that shaped who Jenny is today; if she could change anything about her life, what would it be; what life advice she would give to 16 year old Jenny; and when does she feel the absolute most like herself. Jenny then talked about the exciting things that she has coming up on the horizon as the Mother-in-Lawesome, so have a listen to find out what they are.

    Episode 95 - Who Are We? Part 1 - Rachel

    We're rapidly approaching our 100th episode (which we're incredibly excited about) so we thought it would be a great time to introduce ourselves to anyone who doesn't know us already, as well as reminding our regular listeners what we're all about as individuals - not just as an awesome twosome who host The Renny Show! So, part 1 is Jenny interviewing Rachel. We still used the same format as normal, meaning that Rachel didn't know in advance what any of the questions would be, but we allowed free reign on the questions in the hope of bringing out lots of different conversation subjects. We have to admit, we really enjoyed doing it and we reckon it's a great episode, so if you enjoy it don't forget to listen to part 2 where Rachel interviews Jenny. Rachel answered questions on what she was like as a child (and promised to share a picture on our socials!); what gets her really excited (no dirty insinuations please!); what she would want Jenny to say about her, if Rachel wasn't in the room; favourite words; and what Rachel would want Jenny to ask her, which turned in to a rundown of what's coming next for Rachel. If you enjoyed the episode then don't forget to subscribe and please feel free to ask Rachel further questions via our socials: Instagram: @TheRennyShowPodcast Facebook: The Renny Show Podcast Part 2 - where Rachel interviews Jenny - will be out next week.

    Episode 94 - All the 'R's

    This was our first time back to recording for about two months, so we were feeling a little 'rusty'. It's also that time of year (September) when many people 're-launch' things after a summer break, whilst hopefully feeling 'rested', 'rejuvenated', 'revitalised' and 'recharged', after hopefully having some 'reset' time over the summer. As soon as we sat to discuss what we wanted to talk about, all the words beginning with 'R' came out, hence the episode title. Have a listen to hear how many words beginning with R we crammed in! We talked about 'recharging' over the summer; how to 're-energise' when our get up and go has got up and gone; with it being a common time to 're-launch', how much does it matter if you don't feel 'revitalised'; what we love most about the summer months; and the fact it's very easy to say you're resting, but not actually be resting. Please share your thoughts with us on our socials, so that everyone can share tips for this time of year.

    Episode 93 - In Conversation With Lisa Newport

    If you've never heard of Lisa Newport, strap yourself in. There's a lot to say! Lisa Newport is the creator of the Funky Diva Vibes® movement and the woman behind the Sausage Machine of Conformity.  Her work helps people spot the tiny, ordinary moments where they've been quietly squishing themselves to fit in. Those invisible rules about how you're supposed to dress, behave, speak, lead, age and live seem harmless on their own, until one day you realise they've become your identity.  That's why she teaches us to Spot the Squish. Through the Funky Diva Vibes® Card Deck, workshops, keynote speaking and her Sparkle 1:1 package, Lisa creates memorable experiences that help people laugh, reflect, reconnect with themselves and begin the joyful process of Unsausaging. Her work isn't about changing who you are. It's about helping you remember who you were before life got in the way. Drawing on a career spanning fashion and textile design, lecturing, education management, coaching and her own experience of reinvention, Lisa blends psychology, creativity, storytelling, humour and just enough glitter to make deep personal change feel surprisingly fun. She's a catalyst for those who are ready to stop living by invisible rules and start expressing who they really are. Lisa has featured on BBC Radio Nottingham, Notts TV and numerous podcasts. She is known for turning big ideas into unforgettable experiences using playful props, bold storytelling and frameworks including Spot the Squish, the Sausage Machine of Conformity and Unsausaging. Based in Nottingham, Lisa can usually be found surrounded by pink, glitter, flamingos and a healthy amount of leopard print. When she's not working, she's happy sipping a spicy margarita or curled up on the sofa with her husband Paul and French bulldog Ruby, crocheting while watching Drag Race or a good crime drama. In this brilliant and really fun episode, we talk to Lisa about how she would describe herself; what her current motivation is for what she's getting up to at the moment; and all about her Funky Diva Shiny Shoes workshops that are proving to be a real hit.

    Episode 92 - To Lead, Or Not To Lead

    This one's all about leadership. It's a topic close to both of our hearts, in the work we do now and in a lot of the work we've both done in the past. It's relevant to everyone, because leadership is about how we lead ourselves, as well as how we lead others, in whatever scenario we lead in - whether that be the highest level boardrooms, military environments, as a volunteer on a committee, or as a parent, plus many more scenarios besides. So, we talked about examples of when leadership is challenged and how we can deal with it; if leadership is a lifestyle, how you could describe that leadership lifestyle; whether good leaders are born or nurtured; leaders that inspire us; leadership traits we admire in others; and what we'd say to people who don't think they're leaders. At a time where many of us question the leadership we see around us in the world, it's important for us to talk about leadership and share ideas about what makes good leadership - learning from each other as we go.
