Neil Wilkins in conversation with marketer and drag queen Connor Banks. Neil and Connor discuss how we need to consider LGBTQ+ and diversity in our marketing communications. As marketers, business owners, entrepreneurs and in fact as human beings, we can engage confidently with this sensitive topic by being authentic, trying not to judge and by listening openly.   We should never simply cash-in on the topic for vanity branding and we can be confident to ask, listen and talk about this topic because nobody owns it. So let's confidently engage in the debate. The answer could be simply open, human to human communication.

Neil Wilkins talks to best selling author, speaker and sales guru Chip Helm, about the importance of personal branding, how we are all in sales, whether we like it or not. Chip discusses how he coaches people to become aware of and accept life's hard hits and what you can do about them. According to Chip, self awareness, empathy and a host of his 'chipisms' are the sure fire way of building successful, long term relationships. Neil and Chip discuss patience and mindfulness in this insightful exploration of human communication and interaction.

In this short podcast I talk to you about an example of a frustrating situation that a friend of mine was able to reframe at work. Feeling unnoticed and under valued, we talked through a method of bringing the feeling of affirmation and reward internally, rather than relying on the external world to do it for you. Listen to this short podcast if you need to take control of a frustrating situation either in your personal life or at work. You might find this useful. I hope you do.

In this podcast Neil Wilkins talks with fellow Co-Founder of The Mindful Collective, Joe Pereira, about the key themes and topics they will cover in a mindful business workshop. This is a behind the scenes rehearsal where Neil and Joe discuss many issues and challenges facing businesses seeking to become more sustainable and work to a higher purpose. With an audience of seasoned financial services industry experts gathering in the virtual waiting room, this is a critical discussion to shape the flow of the workshop. One of the core themes that emerges is how best to ensure that everyone (not just the management team or investors) are fully aware of, and bought into, the business' values and purpose. For many, this is the biggest challenge in the move towards sustainable business. Neil plans to release the key outcomes and learnings from the workshop in a follow-on episode of the podcast.

What is it like having COVID-19? Well just before Christmas, Sonya and I found out. In this podcast, I share the experience we both had, Sonya tracking 2 days behind my symptoms. We had an interesting mix of symptoms and each day was very different, as we felt the virus seeking out potential weakness around our bodies. Fortunately we are both fit and healthy and have recovered well with no lasting symptoms or effect. Sadly though my father, from we caught the virus, passed away in his sleep on 30th December. It's been quite a journey and whilst I'm not saying you'll get an experience anything like ours, I think it's important not to fear the virus and to stay as healthy and well as you can, thinking of others and being sympathetic to the varied opinions and views about how the COVID-19 pandemic is being handled in your country. Stay Safe and let me know your experience.

Welcome to 2021 after a COVID-Christmas, home and business relocation and family bereavement. What a crazy end to the year it has been. Sonya and I have been quiet over the last month. We took some time out at the end of 2020 to have COVID, move our world to back to nature and we lost my father. It has been quite a journey and one that we could never have predicted. As we move into 2021, we have so many exciting new things to explore and share with you, but more about those soon. In the meantime I want to wish you a peaceful and safe start to this new year ahead and encourage you to enjoy every moment, whatever and wherever you are, because as we have been reminded over the last few weeks, none of us really have any idea of what's around the next corner.

It's therefore essential to be mindful about how the world thinks about you.
