Beyond The Barbershop

Season 2 · Episode 2

Wednesday, March 13, 2024 • Duration 01:07:36

When the buzz of clippers falls silent, the story of a man's journey from a dreamer to an achiever begins to echo. That's the tale of Dean Gleeson, master barber and entrepreneurial spirit behind Mengo Male Grooming, who joins us to share the trials and triumphs of melding artistry with the precision of barbering. Tracing Dean's path, we uncover how a creative youth with a flair for the arts sculpted a niche in the evolving landscape of male grooming—a tale of resilience, fatherhood, and the drive that turns challenges into opportunities.

Barbering isn't just about a quick trim; it's an evolving canvas where modern style meets traditional technique. In the heart of Leigh on Sea, Dean's hands craft more than hairstyles; they weave the fabric of a community. This episode peels back the layers of a profession that's as much about the conversations in the chair as the hair on the floor. It's an intimate look at how social media has shaped client expectations and the delicate dance between promoting self-acceptance and tapping into the desire to maintain a certain image.

But it's not all about fades and shaves; it's about the balance that every entrepreneur, parent, and individual strives to achieve. Dean opens up about the complexities of partnership in business, the struggle to maintain health amidst professional demands, and the perpetual quest for harmony between work and family. As we navigate the intricacies of growing a business without losing the personal touch, we celebrate the vibrancy of local enterprise, and the shared dream that fuels the spirit of innovation in Leigh on Sea’s entrepreneurs. Join us for a reflection on the art of cutting hair and carving out a life that's not only successful but deeply fulfilling.

Breaking Boundaries

Season 2 · Episode 1

Wednesday, March 6, 2024 • Duration 01:24:48

Ever wondered how a childhood passion can ignite a trailblazing career in interior design and entrepreneurship? Charlotte Debond-Sayer joined me to share her extraordinary journey from dreaming of beautifying spaces as a child to creating The Boundary, a unique Essex-based wedding and events venue. This episode unravels Charlotte's story, weaving through the transformative impact of motherhood on her career, the resilience needed to shift from employee to business owner, and the importance of setting a powerful example for her daughters.

The path to success is as much about the missteps as the milestones. Charlotte and I traverse the education and experiences that led her to interior design, reflecting on how a blend of family influence, academic choices, and a healthy dose of independence shaped her professional ambitions. We highlight the critical moments of her career, from the serendipity of landing a job where eagerness won over experience, to the pivot from redundancy to entrepreneurship—each chapter marking the contours of a life less ordinary.

As we peel back the layers of work-life balance, Charlotte illustrates how she's crafted a family vibe in her business, all while championing community ties and fostering collaborations that extend far beyond The Boundary's beautiful spaces. Her journey is a colorful tapestry of 'blinkinies' and bridal gowns, of joyous community events and the quest for personal fulfillment. Join us for an inspiring listen that offers a peek into the vibrant spirit of an entrepreneur balancing the books and bedtime stories with equal finesse.

Pens, Paper and Purpose

Season 1 · Episode 12

Wednesday, December 13, 2023 • Duration 51:40

Do you ever feel like you're living a life that's not truly your own? You're not alone. I've invited my brother, Luke Adam Hawker, an accomplished artist, best-selling author, and father, to share his journey of trading a stable job for one fueled by passion. We dive into his past, his transition from a graphic designer and architect to a successful artist and author, and the balancing act of fatherhood and career.

Luke lets us in on the brave choice he made to leave a traditional job and start his own design business. Yes, he did trade a seemingly glamorous job of designing palaces for the Saudi royal family, but he found it lacking in passion. He reflects on the importance of following one's passion and the significance of a supportive network when taking the leap into entrepreneurship. We also discuss our shared experiences as fathers and entrepreneurs, highlighting our trials and triumphs in trying to strike the right balance.

The journey to finding purpose and fulfillment in one's work is never an easy one, but it's rewarding. Luke’s journey, achievements, and legacy offer hope and inspiration to anyone considering the path of self-employment. We discuss the rewards that come with taking risks, the importance of transparency, and the role of a supportive partner in pursuing creative projects. Listen in and get inspired. Whether you're contemplating a career change, an aspiring artist, or a parent juggling work and family life, this episode is for you.

Have you ever found yourself daydreaming about a job that lets you work in your own way, at your own pace? Well, today, we're introducing you to Beth Carter, the Head of Growth at Flexa, a company that's revolutionizing the job market by giving verified businesses a platform to showcase just how the flexible ways of working they can offer potential employees. Beth opens up about her intriguing childhood aspiration of being a "dog historian" and her voyage from a stifling finance job to the dynamic world of start-ups. She also shares some pearls of wisdom about the shifting expectations of job seekers and the critical importance of flexible work environments in promoting diversity and transforming business practices.

We take some time to explore the early stages of Beth's career before looking at what it's like to be a growth coach in a start-up versus a corporate setting and the unique aspects of both. Beth also gives us a sneak peek into the evolution of the startup landscape, especially in the post-pandemic era.

During our conversation Beth also sheds light on the concept of the Flex score, a unique system designed by Flexa to assess just how flexible the businesses looking to promote themselves on their platform really are. Beth explains the role of employee surveys and the need for role-modeling and autonomy in flexible work cultures and we wrap up the conversation by taking a look at the future of work, discussing the evolving role of HR, the rise of passive job searching, and the importance of establishing healthy boundaries in a flexible work environment. So, settle in and get ready for an enlightening conversation on the future of work and how companies like Flexa are shaping it.
