An Honest Conversation About the Truth

We are living through a plague of misinformation. From innocent errors to deliberate propaganda, truth is being eroded at speed. In his new book, 'To Be Honest: How making truth happen builds better businesses, lives and societies', author Dom Thurbon explores why truth is not a "nice-to-have", but the crucial foundation of a healthy business. Through extensive research, real-world case studies and wide-ranging interviews, Dom talks us through how honesty, healthy scepticism and having the courage to lean into hard conversations can drive innovation, performance and ultimately build trust. A former Partner at EY and world top-10 debater, Dom has delivered presentations on trust across the USA, Europe, the Middle East, Australia and Asia.

Remember More. Forget Less.

Nelson Dellis is one of the world's leading memory experts, having won the USA Memory Championships six times and earned the title of elite Grandmaster of Memory. He is also a successful mountaineer and Alzheimer's disease activist. Nelson was born with an average memory. Inspired by the passing of his grandmother from Alzheimer's disease, he started training his memory so that he could keep his mind strong and healthy throughout his lifespan. In a short time, he became one of the world's leading competitive memorisers. Memory is such a critical element of our identity and one that needs to be recognised, systematised and practised.

The Mentalist Who Distorts Our Reality & Perception

Andrew Nunn is a mentalist who explores how perception, pressure, and hidden assumptions shape our decision-making. Rather than offering generic mindset advice, Andy shows how intelligent people get fooled by their own thinking — often in real time. On stage as a behavioural keynote speaker, through what seems to be live mind-reading and behavioural insight, Andy is able to demonstrate how failure reshapes belief, how perception distorts reality, and how the stories in our heads quietly shape what we do. In his own life, he was able to move from a place of addiction to running some of the world’s most challenging ultramarathons. Andy doesn’t just teach mindset; he shows us how we fall for constructs and how our minds and perceptions actually work.

Understand and Unlock Your Personal Inner Matrix

Joey Klein is the author of the books 'The Inner Matrix' and 'Relationship Alchemy'. Joey grew up in pain, full of rage, unfulfilled, numbing himself with drugs and alcohol. It was a dark time - his relationships imploded, and he didn't care if he lived or died. Finally, he reached his breaking point and set himself on a quest to find the peace and the fulfilment he craved. He achieved this through an in-depth study of the world's ancient wisdoms: meditation, martial arts and spiritual traditions, along with the modern sciences: neurology, epigenetics, mindfulness, and psychology. The sheer breadth and depth of Joey's journey and his transformation make this a very compelling conversation.

Manage Your Energy, Not Your Time

Dr Jim Loehr wrote a book that changed my mindset on performance. That book was 'The Power of Full Engagement'. Jim's philosophy is that managing energy, not time, is the key to enduring high performance as well as to health, happiness, and life balance. The Power of Full Engagement is a highly practical, scientifically based approach to managing your energy more skillfully, both on and off the job, by laying out the key training principles and providing a powerful, step-by-step program that will help you level up your energy and, thus, your performance. In recent months, I've been queried several times on the relationship between energy, health and wellness on ideas, creativity, leadership and performance, and this episode is the best reference I can give for that question.

The Game Changing Power of Helping People Feel Understood

People want to be seen, heard, valued, understood and appreciated. Jonathan B. Smith is a business strategist and Black Swan Negotiation Instructor with decades of experience. He has founded multiple companies over the years, and his work has helped companies achieve millions in revenue. His new book, 'Fight Less Win More', is gold - one of the most valuable books I have read recently. Daniel Pink, #1 NY Times bestseller, said: "Fight Less, Win More is a massively useful book for just about anyone who has to deal with the desires, foibles, and idiosyncrasies of other human beings." This conversation demonstrates the critical skill we can use in conversation to help people feel understood!
