In the 50th episode of The Secret Resume, former pro-tennis hopeful turned entrepreneur Jamie Toyne traces his journey from the intensity of competitive tennis to building a brain-friendly life and business. He explains why he left social media for eight years to protect his focus and mental health, how he now creates  with a small team, and what actually helps him concentrate day-to-day. We discuss ADHD vs. VAST (Variable Attention Stimulus Trait), practical ways to lower cognitive load, and why enjoying the process beats chasing distant milestones. Along the way: the reality of tennis economics, the pressure that comes with sponsorships, and re-thinking the myth of the “tortured” creative. You’ll hear about: Leaving social media and choosing platforms intentionally for wellbeing and output. ADHD as a lifelong pattern, what VAST looks like in modern office life, and the overlap in solutions. Practical levers: sleep, nutrition, movement, and gentle use of medication where appropriate. Pressure, burnout and why he walked away from a sponsorship-backed tennis path. Creativity without angst; catching ideas and working with flow.   You can connect with Jamie here:    🚀Performance Program for ADHD entrepreneurs: https://www.jamietoyne.com/flowjo   📺 YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@jamietoyne 🌐 Website: https://www.jamietoyne.com   Jamie's Book Recommendation: Demon Copperhead by Barbara Kingsolver - https://amzn.to/49eJy9A   If you want to take our Entrepreneurial Leader Diagnostic, you can do so here: https://liberare-el2.scoreapp.com   The transcript that shows on your screen is automatically generated, therefore we cannot guarantee it is 100% accurate.  You can access a copy of the full transcript here: https://shorturl.at/VWUAZ   The Secret Resume podcast is a Liberare Consulting production.  You can contact us at [email protected] and can buy Melody's book 'The Inclusive Team: How to Build and Develop Inclusive High Performing Teams' or a copy of our Inclusive Teams conversation Cards here: https://shorturl.at/XspUX  Use the code podcast10 to get a 10% discount on all of the items on our product page.   Or why not join our community to get access to exclusive benefits and be the first to hear updates and news https://liberare-consulting.ck.page/community   If you are interested in becoming a guest on our show, please fill in the form here: https://liberare-consulting.ck.page/podcast_guest   We are an Amazon affiliate and receive a very small commission if you buy books through our Amazon links.

Welcome to The Secret Resume! In this episode, Dennis Harhalakis joins host Melody Moore for a powerful and deeply personal exploration of our relationship with money. Dennis, a money coach, opens up about his own journey—growing up with scarcity mindsets inherited from his parents, facing money anxiety after a long corporate career, and how these experiences led him to discover the transformative power of money coaching. Together, they unpack the hidden stories, emotions, and patterns that shape how we think about, talk about, and handle money—often without even realising it. From the challenges of building a new life after years in finance, to the ripple effects of inherited anxieties across generations, Dennis shares insights on the importance of self-compassion and the need to reframe money from a source of shame and fear, to one of empowerment and energy. Whether you’re curious about breaking your own money taboos, setting healthy boundaries in business, or just want to feel less alone in your financial struggles, this conversation offers practical wisdom and heartfelt honesty. Tune in for a refreshing look at money, meaning, and the freedom that comes from rewriting your personal narrative.     You can connect with Dennis here: https://cambridgemoneycoaching.uk/  or  https://www.linkedin.com/in/dennis-harhalakis/   The blog post we talked about is here: https://www.linkedin.com/feed/update/urn:li:activity:7386340574334930945/ https://cambridgemoneycoaching.uk/money-cant-meet-all-your-needs/   Dennis' Book Recommendations: Money on your mind by Vicky Reynal - https://amzn.to/47fMuRV How to know a person by David Brooks - https://amzn.to/49roNY6   If you want to take our Entrepreneurial Leader Diagnostic, you can do so here: https://liberare-el2.scoreapp.com   The transcript that shows on your screen is automatically generated, therefore we cannot guarantee it is 100% accurate.  You can access a copy of the full transcript here: https://shorturl.at/VWUAZ   The Secret Resume podcast is a Liberare Consulting production.  You can contact us at [email protected] and can buy Melody's book 'The Inclusive Team: How to Build and Develop Inclusive High Performing Teams' or a copy of our Inclusive Teams conversation Cards here: https://shorturl.at/XspUX  Use the code podcast10 to get a 10% discount on all of the items on our product page.   Or why not join our community to get access to exclusive benefits and be the first to hear updates and news https://liberare-consulting.ck.page/community   If you are interested in becoming a guest on our show, please fill in the form here: https://liberare-consulting.ck.page/podcast_guest   We are an Amazon affiliate and receive a very small commission if you buy books through our Amazon links.

Welcome to another episode of The Secret Resume, hosted by Melody Moore. In today’s conversation, Melody sits down with Laurence Barrett, founder of Heresy Consulting and a passionate advocate for the transformative power of Jungian psychology in leadership and organisational development. Laurence opens up about his unconventional upbringing, from a childhood shaped by a police officer father with a knack for spotting “gaps in the system,” to formative experiences living in Hong Kong. He discusses how a sense of outsiderness and resilience, rooted in his family’s traveller background and his own early disruptions, propelled him towards questioning systems and ultimately forging his own unique path in both corporate life and coaching. Together, Melody and Laurence explore the interplay between personal history, purpose, and professional practise - delving into everything from Marxism and the influence of Angela Davis, to the power and mystery of Dordogne cave paintings. Lawrence also shares how his journey led him deep into Jungian psychology, both as a lens for understanding human systems and as a practical toolkit for developing leaders and coaches. Whether you're curious about the secret motivations behind great coaches, fascinated by the subtle differences between coaching and therapy, or interested in the profound impact of noticing and self-awareness, this episode is rich with insight, personal stories, and thought-provoking reflections on what it means to lead, learn, and help others grow.   You can connect with Laurence here: https://www.linkedin.com/in/laurence-barrett/   Buy his books here (A Jungian Approach to Coaching, and his new one, Coaching The Unconscious, which is out in November 2025): https://amzn.to/4mFN1Ru   Laurence's book recommendations:  Memories, Dreams, Reflections by Carl Jung - https://amzn.to/3WgRSxy The Middle Passage by James Hollis - https://amzn.to/3VE93Jl The Myth of The Goddess by Anne Baring and Jules Cashford - https://amzn.to/48CTc5h   If you want to take our Entrepreneurial Leader Diagnostic, you can do so here: https://liberare-el2.scoreapp.com   The transcript that shows on your screen is automatically generated, therefore we cannot guarantee it is 100% accurate.  You can access a copy of the full transcript here: https://shorturl.at/VWUAZ   The Secret Resume podcast is a Liberare Consulting production.  You can contact us at [email protected] and can buy Melody's book 'The Inclusive Team: How to Build and Develop Inclusive High Performing Teams' or a copy of our Inclusive Teams conversation Cards here: https://shorturl.at/XspUX  Use the code podcast10 to get a 10% discount on all of the items on our product page.   Or why not join our community to get access to exclusive benefits and be the first to hear updates and news https://liberare-consulting.ck.page/community   If you are interested in becoming a guest on our show, please fill in the form here: https://liberare-consulting.ck.page/podcast_guest   We are an Amazon affiliate and receive a very small commission if you buy books through our Amazon links.

Welcome to the Secret Resume podcast! Today we're diving into an inspiring conversation with PR expert Carol Driver. Carol has been a trailblazer in journalism for over 25 years and now runs her own PR company, helping entrepreneurs shine in the national press. We chat about her exciting career journey, from Billericay's Essex Courier to hitting those high notes at the Mail Online. Carol shares her passion for storytelling and her leap into the world of PR. She’s all about helping her clients make the headlines, and has a talent for spotting a catchy story angle! We also touched on how sharing your story isn’t just about you—it’s about connecting and helping others who might be on a similar path. So, if want to better understand the media, PR and storytelling, this is a must-listen!    You can connect with Carol here: https://www.linkedin.com/in/caroldriver/ or here: https://www.caroldriver.com/   Carol's book recommendations:  The Monk Who Sold His Ferrari by Robin Sharma - https://amzn.to/3EpvBIf Make Your Bed by William H McRaven - https://amzn.to/3Ezfjgg I Thought It Was Just Me by Brene Brown - https://amzn.to/4174w5s Atomic Habits by James Clear - https://amzn.to/3Qdmtt8 Rich Dad, Poor Dad by Robert T Kayosaki - https://amzn.to/3WQn9YY Make Money Online by Lisa Johnson - https://amzn.to/4hutj9z Sales is Easy by Charlie Day - https://amzn.to/3Epwmkz   And if you're on a quest for personal growth or navigating a career transition, check out our Being Free membership.
