    "The transitional phase is super bumpy, but we must go through it." In this episode I am joined by Gregg Guerin, a friend for a number of years - and the person I often find myself talking to about trends and megatrends in the wee hours at the end of conferences!

    Episode Sixteen: The Paradigm Shift To Smart Wellness with Dr Julia Jones

    In this episode I am joined by Julia Jones, a neuroscientist, also known as Dr Rock, has used music and sound, as well as other tools to help countless people bio hack their brains and bodies to bring about wellness. In this episode, we talk about everything wellness! From our serendipitous meeting in 1997, where Julia taught me as a young athlete to manage the stress and anxiety of competition with breathwork, to her current ongoing research and business: Smart Wellness. The episode is all about the shifting paradigm in wellness: how fitness is not wellness, to how traditionally woo-woo things such as breathwork, meditation, sound, and gratitude change the chemistry of the brain.

    Episode Fifteen: Neurodiversity, autistic identity, workplace benefits and challenges with Dr Amy Pearson

    With just over a week until World Autism day, I am joined by Dr Amy Pearson, Developmental Psychologist who specializes in Autism and Neurodivergence for an incredible conversation.  While I don't normally talk about me on these podcasts, as an Aspie diagnosed in 1998 at age 14, this is one where I 'brave-up' and talk about this from both my perspective, as well as where I hope this is all going in terms of neurodiversity in the workplace.  Amy brings a wealth of knowledge and great conversation around the history of neurodiversity diagnosis, the changes in attitude around this area, as well as the benefits of bringing divergent thinkers into the workplace. Just perhaps not an open-plan one!  Here are the links to the resources that she recommends for anyone interesting in learning a little more about neurodiversity: https://theautisticadvocate.com https://www.amazon.co.uk/Dr-Luke-Beardon/e/B072HC7SHS%3Fref=dbs_a_mng_rwt_scns_share Also look out for her upcoming book.

    Episode Fourteen: The Demographic Megatrend with Futurist Adam Sharpe

    I first came across Adam and his work in a copy of the Association of Professional Futurists magazine. He's a futurist and youth engagement specialist. While so many people are solely focused on overpopulation, there is another, bigger megatrend behind it. A declining, ageing, population. This changes everything. "we have historically lived in a world where the average population was young. This is about to reverse itself. Are we even aware, let alone ready, for the plethora of ways this will impact society?" In this awesome conversation we talk about his work, what he sees going on in the work, attitudinal changes in the younger generations, and how mega trends are human rights issues, not just a climate change or economic issues. To help get these concepts across, and to help people think in less linear ways, he's in the process of designing a demographic based game called People Power that encourages systems and scenario thinking.  If you want to find out more about Adam's work (and you should) then head over to https://www.futurely.online/

    For those of you who don't know her, Nicole Yershon was brought into Ogilvy in 2000, with the brief of bringing them into the 21st century.

In addition we touch on her new business the NY Collective, her incredible book ‘Rough Diamond’ and her current topic of investigation ‘Human as tech’.  As Nicole puts it: You’ve got two choices, you can let all this change crush you or you can push back and write your own rules.    https://www.nicoleyershon.com/ https://www.amazon.co.uk/Rough-Diamond-Expanded-Disruption-Advantage/dp/1948787989
