  • Felicity Ashley & Sally Orange | Running Through Adversity: Two Women, One Mountain, Infinite Resilience
    Jul 14 2025

    I had an extraordinary conversation with two remarkable women who conquered the world's highest marathon while battling their own personal challenges. Sally Orange MBE, a former British Army major turned mental health campaigner, completed the grueling 12-hour Everest Base Camp Marathon dressed as a breast costume just weeks after her cancer diagnosis, using her signature approach of sparking vital conversations through humour and vulnerability.

    Felicity Ashley, a transatlantic rower and cancer survivor, marked her three-year cancer anniversary by tackling the same brutal challenge, drawing on the deep inner confidence she's developed through overcoming adversity. Together, they share how they navigated altitude sickness, unexpected climbs, and physical exhaustion while supporting each other and fellow runners from 32 different nationalities.

    This powerful episode reveals how both women transformed their approach to challenges - Sally by accepting her diagnosis "on her own terms" and Felicity by reframing adversity from "why me?" to "why not me?" Their stories demonstrate the profound impact of community support, the importance of building a "cookie jar" of past achievements to draw strength from, and how authentic vulnerability can create life-changing conversations. From Sally's fruit costumes that have inspired four women to get checked for breast cancer, to Felicity's unshakeable belief that she can overcome anything, this conversation offers practical insights on resilience, gratitude, and finding purpose in life's toughest moments. Whether you're facing your own challenges or supporting others through theirs, their combined wisdom on mental preparation, community building, and maintaining hope will leave you feeling empowered to tackle whatever lies ahead.

  • Dr Laura Gallaher | From Space Tragedy to Safety: NASA's 8-Year Culture Revolution
    Jun 30 2025

    In this powerful episode, Dr. Laura Gallaher takes us inside one of NASA's darkest moments and reveals how it became a catalyst for revolutionary change in organisational culture. Following the 2003 Columbia space shuttle disaster that claimed seven astronauts' lives, NASA's investigation uncovered a shocking truth: the agency's culture was as much to blame as the technical failure itself. What makes this even more striking is that NASA had been rated the #1 place to work in the federal government just months before the tragedy, challenging everything we think we know about workplace culture.

    Dr. Gallaher, who spent nearly eight years leading NASA's culture transformation, shares how invisible forces like the "save the programme" mentality and lack of psychological safety prevented engineers from speaking up about critical safety concerns. She provides actionable insights on creating psychological safety, the power of leader vulnerability, and why optimising human dynamics is the ultimate competitive advantage. Her key message: culture change isn't a one-time fix—it's an ongoing commitment that can literally be the difference between success and catastrophic failure.

  • Tracy Clark | Let's Play: The Two Words That Transform Leadership
    Jun 16 2025

    Tracy Clark discovered that two simple words - "let's play" - consistently transformed her stressed, visionary clients by shifting them from fear into a creative, exploratory mindset. Rather than frivolous activity, play represents a powerful leadership state built on intense curiosity, radical open-mindedness, and proactive experimentation.

    Tracy emphasises that effective leadership starts with self-leadership, using her "tree model" where visible strategy and actions (the trunk) must be supported by deeper roots of mindset and self-concept to weather storms. Practical applications include challenging assumptions by asking "what if that's not true?", entering meetings with questions rather than answers, and creating psychological safety for team co-creation.

    For skeptics, play isn't about ping pong tables but about removing the "straight jacket" of limitations to use your whole brain - logic plus intuition, imagination, and creativity - ultimately slowing down to speed up through better ideas and breakthrough solutions.
