  • Break Room 7: Nick & Chops: How to be successful in business (and the common mistakes people make)

    41:35|
    Nick's journey into scaling and exiting business started with a need to change what he was doing, and attending a Tony Robbins event on a friend's recommendation. Prior to that he'd had a successful corporate career.Since 'Tony', Nick's journey has taken him far and wide, and he is now paid mega BIG BUCKS to advise global corporations how to scale and run either start-up investments, existing business, or how to manage businesses to exit and sell.In this Break Room, which Nick kindly spared the time for Chops (as an old friend), we get as much advice as we can on what to do right, what to look out for, and what to learn from the most, when starting and running a business. And it all really comes back to us... to you!Please meet Nick......** Music used is under licence by TWW from Audiio.com.

  • 69. Chat 69: George: A hardcore deep-sea diver and engineer... Oh and a DJ!

    37:16||Ep. 69
    When we went to Abi (pod 68), we briefly met her partner, George... And before we sat down, Abi casually dropped into conversation that George is a deep sea worker, who professional dives and repairs BIG mega structures underwater for a living.Woah, woah, woah... George, hold the line, don't go anywhere!But that's not the only mad thing about George, because before diving, he used to organise (illegal, but were they, really?) raves and make and produce dance/rave music... and earn good money from it.Great chat from a great chap. Please meet George.....** Music used is under licence by TWW from Audiio.com. Licence # 7923362230 **** Music played under licence from PRS For Music: Licence number: LE-0035665 **
  • 68. Chat 68: Abi: A super caring, people-centric professional organiser, with an unusual back story

    41:08||Ep. 68
    Abi's childhood working and running overseas student farms in Cambridgeshire with her family (niche, right?), meant that she grew up fundamentally interested in people and being around people... and helping people.And when she left the family business to make a go of things on her own, that experience led her into social care, community care and healing massage.... She still wanted/needed to help people.Home organising, or rather, professional organising, has the potential to combine all of the skills she used on her family business and in her adult life since: organising people, organising activity, teaching people, and ultimately, helping people. And Abi LOVES it!Please meet Abi.....** Music used is under licence by TWW from Audiio.com. Licence # 7923362230 **** Music played under licence from PRS For Music: Licence number: LE-0035665 **
  • 67. Chat 67: Darren and Sarah: HUGE outdoor enthusiasts and forest adventure business owners

    55:07||Ep. 67
    Darren and Sarah's enthusiasm for the outdoors, and for physical activity - in the fresh air - is contagious. They live and breath what they do.Although it's clear that Darren is the driving force behind the business, and some might say (Sarah might say), the driving force behind the madness; you quickly realise how much he relies on Sarah as a voice of reason and as his anchor.They're a fab couple, on a fab mission, to give normal people a fab experience... Which they do, every single time.With special thanks to Darren & Sarah and everyone at: https://www.forestfacility.com....** Music used is under licence by TWW from Audiio.com.

  • Break Room 6: Jim, Janet & Chops: Working life 'back when we were young'...

    32:11|
    Even though Chops firmly believes Jim & Janet are the best neighbours ever, it's still a bit odd having them on TWWork as podcast guests... Not least because they're retired and long out of the daily grind of working life - right?Wrong. They know a lot! About life and working life, and even though they're retired, they still have business relationships at play, and are still hugely aware of what's going on in the world. They are well-educated, smart, open-minded people, who have a sincere interest in the world and their community. And their take on human connectivity today vs 'their day' was really interesting to hear.For a first, 'soft' attempt, with Jim and Janet (to ensure they didn't back out or freak out), we think it went well. Yes multiple bottles of prosecco were consumed, but that's by-the-by.Please welcome Jim and Janet to TWWork.** Music used is under licence by TWW from Audiio.com.

  • 66. Chat number 66: Louise: A hard-working, multifaceted creative thinker, and now a reclamation expert

    34:14||Ep. 66
    Louise's story is a mixture of creative talent, hard work and... well, chance.Because although she carved out her own successful career prior to the world of reclamation, it was a chance meeting and a chance friendship (that later became a romantic relationship) that ultimately brought her to where she is today.And even though she joined her (now) husband's successful reclamation business later on in life (10-years ago), Louise brought with her a wealth of creative talent and retail experience that has enabled the business to evolve and further flourish... And is enabling them to now build their dream home, which will be (as far as possibly) built and made entirely out of reclaimed materials.Please meet Louise.** Music used is under licence by TWW from Audiio.com.

  • 65. Chat number 65: Katie: A brilliantly self-taught - and highly sought after - event caterer

    30:20||Ep. 65
    Judging by the smells in Katie's home kitchen when we podded her, it's no wonder Katie is so busy with her catering business.A catering business which to this day makes her family laugh, because as a child, and a young teen, Katie had no interest in food or cooking. Her parents also aren't caterers, so this whole career path came out of the blue.... Although not entirely. Katie talks about being creative as a child, particularly with textiles, and so whether she realised it or not, she was always going to end up thriving in a role that allowed her to express the creative part of herself.But it didn't happen quickly, and it didn't happen overnight... Quite a few 'normal' jobs went through Katie's path before she ended up catering for big events and booked-up months in advance.Please meet Katie.** Music used is under licence by TWW from Audiio.com.

  • 64. Chat number: 64: Kerry: A truly unique, quirky & progressive furniture upholsterer

    38:13||Ep. 64
    Kerry's products and her approach are highly sought after. They're beautifully unique and beautifully executed... Hence why she ships them all over the world.She refused to follow the traditional 'upholstering' path - despite being advised by MANY people to do that - and instead she's carved out her own path, and stayed true to it. And it's now paying dividends, because as well as custom upholstery, she's getting asked for collaborations and home styling advice... and much more.As Kerry says in the chat, she's worked hard to create a 'brand', and now where that brand takes her is an open road.Please meet Kerry.** Music used is under licence by TWW from Audiio.com.
