07 Sep 2022"Speaking Up"- Disability, Rights & Inclusion00:45:43

Series 1 Episode 8

In this episode I talk to Mark Parrin & Nick Inge about disability, rights, discrimination and the amazing ‘Speak Up’ App. An absolute must listen!

Mark Parrin has worked in the disability employment field for 25 years, supporting individuals to find and keep employment, supporting businesses to become better educated about disability and open them up to employing a more diverse workforce. He currently works with Nick at iTrust and advises on Disability and Inclusion. He is also a Worldly Wise Ambassador and is invited into schools to talk to students about life experiences, resilience, motivation & aspirations 


Nick Inge Is a former policeman and the CEO of a specialist speak up business, iTrust Assurance Ltd. He has developed a ground-breaking speak up app which they supply to organisations to allow their staff to report wrongdoing. He is also the co-founder of Worldly Wise. This is a not-for-profit organisation which through their network of volunteer ambassadors, gives support and guidance to young people. Nick has also written two books - ‘Exposing the Truth – Whistleblowing Uncovered’ and ‘Jeopardy’, both of which are available on Amazon.

During his time with the police, he specialised in recruiting and handling informants. Initially this was working with informants who provided information about local crime but not long after specialised in serious crime and counter-terrorism policing. This involved working alongside MI5, MI6 as well as the National Crime Agency, managing informants that were pivotal to high-profile operations tackling terrorism, domestic extremism, serious crime, and corruption.

Podcast Show Notes

Series 7 Episode 3

In this episode I talk to Dr Jade Redfern- Clinical Psychologist and mum of two, about all things parenting.

Dr Jade helps parents ‘lose the guilt and calm the chaos’ by supporting them to understand themselves and their kids better, to feel better connected and help make parenting feel so much more enjoyable. She particularly enjoys helping parents who are hard on themselves, but want to show up for their kids, often slightly differently to their own experiences as a child, but to do it imperfectly, to feel less triggered by their kids behaviours, and ditch the guilt and shame they feel along the way! Jade offers 1:1 therapy, parent coaching, and her membership – ‘Inside Out Parenting.’ 

We cover:


·     Why parenting can be tough at times

·     Understanding ourselves as parents- Figuring out what makes us triggered and our behavioural responses.

·     How you want to show up as a parent

·     Managing guilt and shame

·     Comparing ourselves with others

·     Looking after ourselves.

15 Nov 2023Using Behaviour Analysis to Break Habits and Create Change00:41:38

Podcast Show Notes

Series 7 Episode 4

In this episode I talk to the incredible Dr Valerie Evans. Valerie is a psychologist and board -certified behaviour analyst, who specialises in mindful eating. Valerie owns a continuing education business that reviews current research and best practice for behaviour analysis programs. Dr Evans has aspired to feel better about her body since becoming a teen and has experience with just about every diet program. Two years ago, Valerie turned to diet apps to feel like herself again following surgery. However, instead of reconnecting with her body she felt more disconnected than ever—completely consumed with the diet app numbers game.

Valerie said “No Weigh” to the counting, tracking, budgeting, and overall life-consuming task of restriction diets! Dr Evans responded by creating her own app, a diet program alternative called No Weigh. No Weigh shows users how to leverage behaviour analysis devices to make simple adjustments to the contexts of their daily lives to maintain motivation and lose weight mindfully and naturally.

We cover:

 

-The role of behaviour analysis for understating ourselves and our habits/behaviours

-Motivation and barriers to creating change

-What makes us get ’stuck” at times

-What we do to begin our change journey

-Using behaviour change for weight loss.
