Matthew Murphy: Going within yourself to become a great songwriter

I’m joined today by Anita Brightley-Hodges – a fantastic role-model for women in business and a shining example of compassion through the fundraising that she has done for numerous charities.Anita runs her own business as a specialist advisor to people that own their own family businesses. All businesses come with challenges, but when they’re family-run, they also come with their additional pressures. As wonderful it is to know you have set up a business that could be passed down from generation to generation, you also have overcome the hurdles of working with family, dealing with succession of the business and family disputes. Anita is the go-to woman to offer strategies to deal with these eventualities. In addition to this she offers wealth and well-being support to clients that are dealing with life-changing situations in her Associate role at ‘Saphora Private’…and somehow, in the middle of her incredibly busy and successful business life, she’s managed to complete numerous tough treks across the globe to raise hundreds of thousands of pounds for charity.Anita talks to Sandro about her family business and what makes it work so well and she explains how she is able to help others, not only by using her wealth of experience but because she has personally lived many of the situations she helps people through, such as a marriage breakdown and the time in 2008 when, as she put it, she “lost everything”.Find out more about Anita here:www.familybusinessplace.com www.saphoraprivate.comanita@familybusinessplace.comanita@saphoraprivate.comwww.anitabrightleyhodges.comTwitter - @anitabhodgesSandro Forte is a highly respected and successful businessman who has built an astonishing network of well-known individuals, sports stars and celebrities over a career spanning more than 30 years.

Dan Stein

Dan Stein and his business are very much an enigma. Not many businesses can say they boast the same success as his through no advertising, but simply word of mouth.

David Thomas

David Thomas’s story is of one of a tragic childhood that has been transformed into a jaw-dropping story of achievement and success. Born in Yorkshire, David suffered a seriously abusive childhood at the hands of his mother and stepfather. This start in life led him to major under-achievements in school, a criminal conviction and attempts at suicide at the young age of 16. You’d find it hard to imagine how any youngster could go on to turn their life into a positive one. During his time serving with the fire service in 1996 he was inspired by a man he saw on TV that memorised a pack of cards, so he bought himself a book on memory improvement. Within 8 months he came 4th in the ‘World Memory Championships’ and has since gone on to become known as one of the most powerful memories in history with several titles to his name, including ‘Guinness Memory Record Breaker’ and ‘US Memory Champion’. He’s also been a professional speaker for over 20 years, having spoken in over 21 countries worldwide and is also a Sunday Times #1 bestselling author. His direct form of speaking is intended to unsettle the audience into assessing where their life is currently at and goes on to help people overcome adversity and the major challenges life throws at us.David talks to Sandro about his traumatic childhood, the art of mind-mapping and the importance of an exercise regime in keeping depression at bay.Find out more about David:www.themotivationspeaker.comSandro Forte is a highly respected and successful businessman who has built an astonishing network of well-known individuals, sports stars and celebrities over a career spanning more than 30 years.

Simon Lester: Success being defined by relationships

Ed Djafer

Author and Health &amp; Performance coach, Ed Djafer, started out in life as a shy boy that was low in confidence, and as he progressed through school he started carrying extra weight that knocked his confidence even lower. As soon as he got the opportunity to leave school, he did as he couldn’t bear being in situations with other children, such as PE that drew any attention to him.  To say he turned his life around is an understatement. Once he changed his mindset and decided to tackle his weight issues and low confidence face-on, he started weight-lifting and soon found himself confident enough to take centre stage in life.His new-found confidence led him to become a personal fitness trainer and write a book ‘The Muscle &amp; Hustle Method Book’, specifically targeting entrepreneurial men that don’t have the time to spend hours in the gym and watching what they eat. Ed’s ethic is that if we can focus on staying in shape, this leads to more confidence and energy and this then fuels business and relationship success. He now offers online coaching to help men take control of their health and transform their bodies with a realistic training schedule. Ed talks to Sandro about his fitness journey and having that enough is enough moment which sparked action. He also compares a fitness journey to a successful business journey and the 6 steps he feels are integral to that success in both the workplace and the gym.You can find out more about Ed at:@coacheddjaferwww.eddjafer.comEd’s book is The muscle and hustle method (www.themuscleandhustlemethod.com)Sandro Forte is a highly respected and successful businessman who has built an astonishing network of well-known individuals, sports stars and celebrities over a career spanning more than 30 years.Author of the bestselling book ‘Dare to Be Different’ and a sought-after speaker, Sandro has decided to access his enviable resources to produce a podcast series, centred around personal development, which invites a different person each episode to talk about their successes, their challenges and what lessons they have learned in life to make them who they are today.

Ed Djafer: Setting yourself manageable, achievable and measurable goals

Eva Hamilton

For over 30 years, Eva Hamilton MBE has worked with society’s marginalised groups and she has been responsible for coming up with pioneering, radical approaches to dealing with some of the UK's most complex social problems. She now is CEO of her own UK charity, ‘Key4Life’, which aims to rehabilitate youth offenders to help stop them reoffending and help reintegrate them back into society once released from prison. She was awarded an MBE for these services by HRH The Prince of Wales in 2005.Eva’s rebellious childhood was a starting point for her choosing the path to help others, and it was from her own personal experiences, including her own mental and emotional health experiences, that she recognised the importance of having inspirational role models in youngsters’ lives. Her journey led her to work at one of Mother Theresa’s homes for the dying in Calcutta and it was here she had a vision that her destiny wasn’t to make big money but instead to help change the world. She followed her calling and her charity does exactly that. The statistics speak for themselves; with every offender that goes through one of ‘Key4Life’s programmes being 4 times less likely to return to prison and 4 times more likely to get a job. Hear Eva talk passionately to Sandro about her personal journey, how that has helped shape her into the person she is today and her commitment to helping support and guide those that have had the toughest of starts in life.Find out more about Eva at:www.key4life.org.uk@key4life on Twitter and FacebookSandro Forte is a highly respected and successful businessman who has built an astonishing network of well-known individuals, sports stars and celebrities over a career spanning more than 30 years.
