How Women Can Get Elected in Government: With CEO, Women For Election, Licia Heath  Licia is the CEO of Women for Election, an organisation that provides training for women to learn the ins and outs of what is required to run for local, state or federal election. This information has always been opaque and Women For Election is trying to make the process of standing for election transparent and accessible for women in Australia. For our listeners in USA, UK and Canada, the process of election may differ from Australia's but the mindset in standing for election is the same. Talking with Licia blew up some limiting beliefs, and by listening to this, I hope it uproots any of your limiting beliefs for standing up, standing out and leading.

In the morning pack up so the space can be used for its intended use and in the evening...Beddown. This is a remarkable conversation with a man who after becoming redundant, thought, what next?

Inventor of Cellular Spray on Skin: Dr Fiona Wood Dr Wood, a plastic surgeon, invented cellular spray on skin for burns victims. We discuss how this incredible product idea was conceived through to production. The highlight of this interviewer is self awareness.

FISH Philosophy Founder John Christensen. Finding a profitable idea, NO ONE Else Can See! This is an incredible journey of how to pay attention a profitable idea from someone who has done exactly that! On a visit to Seattle, John Christensen, observed fish sellers at Pike Place Fish Market tossing trout and salmon through the air of the market, providing high energy that energized many pedestrians passing by on their lunch breaks. They gave their complete attention to each customer and ensured each had an enjoyable visit. Christensen noticed the actual work of selling fish was repetitive, cold and exhausting. It occurred to him that the fishmongers might not enjoy every part of their job, but they chose to bring joy to how they approached it.  They also sold a lot of fish. He asked the fishmongers if he could film them and they agreed. That turned into a film entitled Fish. John Christensen created the Fish Philosophy from the film, and a book entitled Fish! A Remarkable Way to Boost Morale and Improve R
