Meta Description: Join us for an insightful podcast with award-winning coaches Tina Neve and Tracy Irwin. Discover career transformation tips, business success strategies, and personal growth insights to take your journey to the next level.
Empowering Change: Conversations with Tina Neve & Tracy Irwin
Welcome to another exciting episode of our podcast, where we bring you powerful conversations with experts who inspire change and transformation. This week, we are joined by two incredible guests: Tina Neve, an award-winning psychological coach, and Tracy Irwin, a seasoned entrepreneur and mentor now living in Spain.
They share their experiences, insights, and strategies to help you lead with confidence, break through barriers, and achieve success on your own terms.
Meet Tina Neve: Award-Winning Career, Executive & Psychological Coach
Tina Neve is a career, executive, and psychological coach, working with leaders across various sectors, including startups. With a holistic approach that blends self-awareness, self-compassion, and strategic growth, she helps her clients navigate transitions, overcome perfectionism, and build sustainable success.
What is Psychological Coaching?
Psychological coaching integrates elements of counseling and coaching to support not just business and career decisions but also emotional and mental well-being. Tina’s unique MSc in Integrative Counselling and Coaching allows her to guide clients in overcoming challenges like perfectionism, ASD, and ADHD, ensuring their leadership and personal growth journey is well-rounded and fulfilling.
How Does Perfectionism Impact Career Growth?
Tina highlights how perfectionism can limit career progression, creating stress, burnout, and decision paralysis. The key? Learning to embrace imperfection and create space for creativity and problem-solving.
Business Tip from Tina Neve:
➡️ Stop pushing, start creating space in your schedule. The most productive thing you can do is allow your brain time to think, create, and solve problems. Pushing and forcing leads to stress, which reduces your capacity to innovate. To go faster, you must slow down.

💡 “We don't have to do all of it alone. We were never meant to.” – Brené Brown

In 2024, she sold the company to fully focus on her coaching and mentoring business, The Time Freedom Alchemist.
Tracy now helps business owners shift from working in their business to working on it, ensuring they pay themselves what they are worth while enjoying true freedom and balance. What’s Next for Tracy Irwin in 2025?
Tracy shares her personal reflections as she navigates a crossroads in her career, exploring what’s next and how she plans to use her time effectively.

From Bangkok to Business Brilliance: Insights from Sarah Marsh-Collings and Surprise Guests - Episode 100

Coming up: 1. Introducing
This Week’s Guests 2. Sarah Marsh-Collings: A Life Rich in Experiences 3. Sarah's Business Insights: Buzzword Pet Peeves & Email Signatures 4. Surprise Guests: Sonia Brown MBE & Zeenat Noorani 5. Looking Ahead: Next Week’s Inspiring Lineup 
Introducing This Week’s Guests
This week on my radio show, we welcome an incredible mix of talent and expertise. Joining me in the studio is the insightful and multi-talented Sarah Marsh-Collings, founder of babelMonkey. But that’s not all—our surprise guests are the dynamic Sonia Brown MBE, known for her empowering work with women in business, and the inspiring Zeenat Noorani, connecting with us all the way from Dubai!
Sarah Marsh-Collings: A Life Rich in Experiences
Sarah’s story is as unique as it is inspiring. Born in Bangkok as the daughter of a diplomat and an executive PA, she grew up in various corners of the globe, including Malawi, Bangladesh, Belgium, and Indonesia. Her journey continued through boarding school in Hastings and the International Baccalaureate at Jakarta International School.
Her career began in catering, managing diverse restaurants, before she transitioned into recruitment and marketing. In February 2014, she founded her business, babelMonkey, a marketing agency that reflects her passion for creativity and strategic thinking.
When she’s not tackling marketing challenges, Sarah enjoys spending time with her rescue dog, Barney, and experimenting in the kitchen—a hobby she charmingly refers to as "guddling."
Sarah's Business Insights: Buzzword Pet Peeves & Email Signatures
During the show, Sarah shared her perspective on buzzwords like authenticity. For Sarah, these overused terms dilute the richness of language:
“What are we really talking about? How much do we really have to share? Language is beautiful, and when it’s hijacked, it irritates me—it feels lazy.”
On a practical note, Sarah offered a clever and often overlooked business tip:
“Use your email signature to promote yourself. If you’re out of the office, share where you are, why you’re there, or who you’re meeting. You can even promote their services at the same time! And don’t be afraid to use humour—it makes you relatable.”
These small but impactful ideas reflect Sarah’s innovative approach to business communication.
Surprise Guests: Sonia Brown MBE & Zeenat Noorani Adding an extra layer of excitement to the show were our surprise guests. Sonia Brown MBE, a trailblazer in empowering women in business, brought her characteristic energy and insights. Meanwhile, Zeenat Noorani, tuning in from Dubai, shared her global perspective on mental health, wellbeing, and personal development.
Their contributions added depth and diversity to the conversation, leaving listeners with plenty to reflect on.
Looking Ahead: Next Week’s Inspiring Lineup The inspiration doesn’t stop here! Next week, we’ll be joined by the insightful Fiona Catchpowle, a specialist in menopause support and awareness, who is passionate about helping women navigate this pivotal life stage with confidence. Joining her will be Siobhan Barry, a fellow presenter at LDBR, bringing her own unique perspective to the conversation. Be sure to tune in for more engaging discussions and actionable insights!

Annabel is the powerhouse behind KoffeeKlatch Ltd, a contract and GDPR support service tailored for micropreneurs and small businesses.

Annabel’s Highlights on the Show What’s in store for 2025? Annabel shared her thoughts on what the new year might bring for businesses, legally and operationally.
For KoffeeKlatch in 2025: While their new website isn’t live yet, Annabel gave us a sneak peek into their plans, including the launch of their exciting new copywriting services at the end of the month.

Introducing Joanne Bell: From Accountancy to Financial Literacy Advocate
Joanne Bell, founder of Bells Accountants, joined us to share her incredible journey. Over the past 15 years, Joanne has built five thriving practices through organic growth and acquisitions. She’s known for making finance approachable and jargon-free, helping business owners grow their companies with confidence.
Joanne’s accolades include being named Kent’s Best Woman in Business and one of the Top 50 Women in Finance globally—a true trailblazer!
Joanne’s Big Project: Money & You!
Joanne talked passionately about her latest initiative, the "Money & You!" book series, designed to teach financial literacy to children aged 9–16. With schools often neglecting real-world financial skills, Joanne identified a crucial gap and stepped in to fill it.
📚 Details of the Series:
6 books, each priced at £8.99. Available at Ruby Tuesday Books with a special discount for our listeners: Use code BELLS15 for 15% off. Joanne’s mission is simple but powerful: to equip the next generation with the knowledge they need to thrive in the financial world.

Unleashing Your Sparkle: Personal Branding with Carole, Queen of Sparkle - Episode 96

Guest Spotlight: Carole – Queen of Sparkle This week, I’m beyond excited to welcome a truly extraordinary guest — Carole, also known as the Queen of Sparkle! Carole’s story is as captivating as it is inspiring. With only five years of conscious memory, she has an incredible perspective on life, purpose, and personal branding. As CEO of Words that Deliver, Carole is on a mission to help people craft powerful personal brands that speak for them before they even say a word. Her philosophy? Your brand isn’t just what you say; it’s how you show up. It’s the energy, presence, and story you tell before you even open your mouth. And it all begins with the story you tell yourself.
 
Carole believes in meeting people at their "point of possibility" — the point where self-doubt meets potential. By blending everyday life’s flavors with her lived experience and hard-earned wisdom, Carole helps others see themselves as winners. Her approach is not just uplifting, it’s transformational. ________________________________________
✨ What is a Sparkle Injection?
If you’ve ever felt stuck, unsure, or like you’re hiding in the shadows, this is where Carole’s concept of the “Sparkle Injection” comes in. But what exactly is a Sparkle Injection? Carole explains it as a mindset shift — an infusion of confidence, authenticity, and self-belief that transforms how you see yourself and how the world sees you. It's not just about looking confident; it’s about being confident. Here’s what we talked about:
🔥 How does only five years of conscious memory shape her approach to personal branding?
Imagine waking up one day with only five years of your life stored in your memory. How would you see yourself? What stories would you tell yourself about who you are? This experience has given Carole a unique perspective on "living in the now" and the stories we carry with us. It’s a fresh way of approaching personal branding, not as something we “build” but as something we reveal.
✨ How do you tell a story before you say a word?
Carole’s belief is that your personal brand is evident from the moment you walk into a room. It’s in your body language, your energy, and your presence. People make split-second judgments, so how you show up matters. She asks, "What’s the story you’re telling the world without even speaking?" Are you hiding behind doubt, fear, or uncertainty? Or are you stepping forward with clarity, confidence, and purpose?
💫 How can you rewrite your inner narrative to show up more authentically?
The most important branding conversation is the one you have with yourself. If your internal story is filled with doubt, fear, or negative self-talk, that’s the version of you the world sees. Carole encourages us to take control of our narrative, reframe our inner dialogue, and step into our power. Your personal brand isn’t just how others see you — it’s how you see yourself.
🎉 Why "sparkle" isn’t just for Christmas!
If you think sparkle is reserved for the festive season, think again. Carole says, "Sparkle isn’t seasonal; it’s for life." It’s the unique fingerprint you leave on people’s hearts and minds. It’s the emotional footprint you leave behind after every encounter. Every handshake, every smile, every conversation is a chance to leave a lasting impression.
Carole’s mission is to help people own their sparkle, embrace their uniqueness, and create a personal brand that is unforgettable. Because when you own your sparkle, you become unstoppable.

From Banker to Visionary: How Gary Cooper Turned Creativity into a National Service Powerhouse - Episode 95

🌟 Meet Gary Cooper: A Trailblazer in Story-Driven Marketing It’s always a treat to welcome exceptional guests to the show, and today is no different. Joining me is the extraordinary Gary Cooper, the Creative Director of Create The Image Productions. Gary’s professional journey is a testament to the power of reinvention and the courage to follow your passion.
Before stepping into the world of creative marketing, Gary spent over 14 years excelling as a Retail Manager and Bank Manager. But his entrepreneurial spirit called him to something greater—a way to combine his knack for relationship-building with a flair for storytelling through photography and videography.
Over the last 8 years, Gary has cultivated a national network of photographers, videographers, and creatives, ensuring his clients have access to a powerhouse team of marketing experts. Together, they specialize in creating Dynamic, Engaging, and Story-Led Visual Content that doesn’t just tell stories—it moves audiences and drives results.
🎥 The Secret Sauce to Successful Brand Content During our conversation, Gary opened up about the transformative power of high-quality content. Here’s a sneak peek into what he shared:
Video is king. Video marketing, particularly when enhanced with drone footage, is no longer optional—it’s essential. It’s the ultimate tool for showing off your brand’s personality and standing out in crowded markets.
Consistency matters. Your audience craves relevance, and a Marketing Content Library filled with vibrant, story-driven images and videos ensures you’re always ready to captivate their attention.
Know your ideal client. Tailored visuals that resonate with your target audience can be the difference between a sale and being ignored.
And here’s the cherry on top: Gary revealed an amazing Black Friday offer—a whopping 50% OFF his creative packages. So, if you’ve been thinking about upgrading your marketing game, this is your sign!
