    No Privacy Please: When Hotel Design Fails

    In this episode of Talk’n TRM: The Traveller Files, Bex is joined by Jessica Inglis to unpack a story that takes “open-plan” a little too far. Picture this: you’re on a business trip, sharing a hotel room with a colleague, only to discover the bathroom door is made of clear glass. No frosting. No privacy. Just awkward compromises and towel improvisation. Bex and Jessica explore the very real challenges that come with situations like this, from blurred personal boundaries with coworkers to the responsibility hotels have to ensure guests are comfortable and respected.  This story isn’t just about bad design; it’s about dignity, responsibility, and the duty of care that both hotels and companies hold for their people when they’re on the road.   Share your perspective with Bex on LinkedIn at https://www.linkedin.com/showcase/talk-n-trm-the-podcast/about/   Contact Bex: bex.deadman@assent1.co.uk https://www.linkedin.com/in/bex-deadman-aka-travel-risk-bex-70b92419/ www.assent1.com Clemark Studios - https://www.clemarkgroup.com/studio/

    Breakfast or Boundaries? Expectations During Business Travel

    In this episode of Talk’n TRM: The Traveller Files, Bex is joined by Jessica Inglis to unpack a surprisingly common business travel dilemma: the expectation to eat breakfast with colleagues. For some, it’s a chance to connect and strategize before the workday begins. For others, mornings are sacred—quiet time for coffee, reflection, and personal space before a day full of client interactions. Together, Bex and Jessica explore how this small ritual highlights a bigger issue: the blurred boundaries of business travel. When you’re away from home, are you expected to always be “on”? Where does personal time end and work time begin? Tune in as they discuss the unspoken rules of travel mornings, the pressure to conform to group expectations, and why protecting personal boundaries might be just as important as professional performance.   Share your perspective with Bex on LinkedIn at https://www.linkedin.com/showcase/talk-n-trm-the-podcast/about/
