In this episode of Let’s Take a Moment, I explore the ins and outs of flexible working requests — what they are, why they matter, and how they can benefit both employees and employers. From understanding your rights, to navigating the process of making a request, to considering the wider cultural impact of flexible working, I break down the key points you need to know.

Whether you’re thinking about asking for more flexibility yourself, or you’re a manager handling requests from your team, this episode gives you practical insights and food for thought on how flexible working can shape a healthier, more balanced workplace.

Welcome to another episode of “Let’s Take a Moment.” In this episode, we’re diving deep into something almost everyone can relate to: regretting a bad choice or two. We all carry stories about decisions that haunt us, but it’s time to explore a healthier way forward. Join me as I offer fresh perspectives on what it means to acknowledge our slip-ups, learn from them, and discover genuine self-forgiveness.

Throughout this episode, we’ll look at how regret impacts our mental and emotional well-being—and why it matters that we find peace with our past. We’ll dig into practical tips, self-compassion techniques, and even share personal anecdotes that shed light on how to move beyond remorse. By reframing our so-called “failures” and focusing on the lessons they carry, we can chart a path toward personal growth and renewed confidence.

Whether you’ve made a mistake that’s been gnawing at you for years or you just need a reminder that nobody’s perfect, this episode is for you. So take a moment, sit back, and let’s figure out how to release ourselves from the weight of regret—because even the worst choices can lead us to the best lessons.

We often chase big goals, expecting them to bring us success, fulfilment, and purpose. But what if the real secret to progress lies in the small wins we achieve every day? In this episode of Let’s Take a Moment, we explore how small, consistent actions can have a massive impact on both productivity and personal growth.

I’ll break down why small wins matter, how they build momentum, and the practical strategies you can use to create a sense of achievement in your daily life. From simple productivity hacks to mindset shifts, this episode will help you focus on steady progress rather than overwhelming expectations.

If you’ve ever struggled with motivation or felt stuck waiting for a breakthrough, this episode is for you. Let’s take a moment to appreciate the power of small wins.

We’re often told that work should be our passion, our purpose, and our primary source of fulfilment. But what happens when it doesn’t quite tick every box? In this episode of Let’s Take a Moment, we explore why it’s perfectly normal for work to fall short of meeting all our needs—especially from an ego perspective.

I’ll break down the common expectations we place on our jobs, why they can sometimes lead to frustration, and how we can shift our mindset to find meaning elsewhere. Whether it’s through creative projects, community involvement, personal growth, or simply redefining success, there are plenty of ways to cultivate a sense of purpose beyond the nine-to-five.

If you’ve ever felt like your job isn’t giving you everything you hoped for, this episode is for you. Let’s take a moment to rethink how we define fulfilment.

In this episode we discuss living in the moment. Recorded during the night on the morning of 11 December 2024, I discuss looking into our past, considering the future and how best to live presently. It's a really deep subject we might well revisit, but I hope you find this 20-minute chat thought-provoking.

In this podcast chat I discuss a critical question: is your job working for you, or are you just working for your job? I discuss practical ways to assess whether your current role aligns with your personal and professional growth goals. From evaluating career progression to understanding your worth in the workplace, this episode is about ensuring you’re on a path that truly serves you.

In this update I discuss a major life milestone that came and went last week as well as my current and future plans for the rest of 2024.

Welcome back after a bad August.
