What a great human conversation with Doug Thompson. He is a Senior Technology Strategist for Microsoft and has been for over 18 years. A 'unicorn' (his words) who can do the nerdy stuff, but also connect with the people sales side. A rare breed, but so glad I had this conversation. We didn't plan a subject for this podcast, it was purely about meeting a new friend and during our chat I realised a huge thing. I had not connected with Doug because of Microsoft, as awesome as that is, I had actually connected with his personal brand. So I named this podcast after just that - the discovery of personal brand - what does it really mean. Watch and you may well discover that this is one very important brand you just can't ignore, because it is uniquely powerful being just you! Thank you Doug - if you want to connect with Doug the look up 'The Doug Thompson' because there is only one Doug! LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/thedougth...

In this episode I talk to the wonderful Caroline Strawson - Accredited divorce and positive psychology coach. Her story is fascinating and inspiring, where she overcomes adversity and builds again to come back from one of the darkest times of her life. On her journey she discovers the benefits of network marketing but even more interesting she finally finds her real niche, helping women who are going through and dealing with divorce.

In this episode I am delighted to have my son Sam with me as my special guest. As he has just started his Year 9 at 13 yrs old I realised that his world right now is a very different place to mine, and I was curious to step into that world and see what things looked like from his perspective. Just like I always say we should when we sell! He certainly made me think about choice and how we can do things in a different way. What an interesting human conversation we had! Please do let us know what you think - we'd love to know. Loved it and hope you do too.

Absolutely honoured to have Rob Law MBE on my podcast this week, the inventor of Trunki. I knew Rob in the very early days of the Trunki journey when I sold them in my company, Truly Madly Baby.

I loved our catch up where you get a taste of the magical Trunki journey, but don't underestimate how determined and driven Rob has been and the adversity he has overcome to get to where he is today.

This week got me thinking about the art of human conversation. Following a chain of events yesterday where I had to deal with four different call centres, I thought I would tell you about my story and observations. Have we now lost the art of human conversation, or is it totally down to the individual you are speaking to?
