ABIDING: The Positive and Practical Podcast

Season 1, Ep. 18

Welcome to the positivity podcast: ABIDING, from the WHAT HEROES DO PODCAST NETWORK. It is an absolute pleasure to welcome our latest guest onboard, Hanna McCloskey, the CEO and Founder of professional teaching and coaching organisation FEARLESS FUTURES.


Fearless Futures serves daring organisations - across sectors - ready to actively challenge inequities by addressing their roots, intersections, and lived realities. Hanna and her team facilitate transformative equity and inclusion learning experiences, in-person and online, as well as partner with their clients through consultancy in service of designing equitable ecosystems for people and products.


Hanna is here to share her positive and rewarding experiences gained through 'a bucket of courage', unwavering dedication, consistency, maintaining personal wellbeing, and the support of those around her; which we hope will inspire anyone and everyone listening who has an idea they are truly passionate about...but may be holding back from taking the next step into entrepreneurship.


We also talk about THE MARVELS too!


Listen, enjoy and share!

  • 24. WHAT HEROES DO THE ACOLYTE EPISODE 1 & 2 REVIEW

    46:27||Season 1, Ep. 24
    WHAT HEROES DO is back and we are talking STAR WARS! We all love and adore the GALAXY FAR, FAR AWAY...yet the DISNEY+ offering has been a mixed bag. We have had amazing highs...MANDO & GROGU, ANDOR, and disappointing lows...does anyone remember THE BOOK OF BOBA FETT?? Anyone? Anyone?So where will the new show, THE ACOLYTE rank so far after its first 2 episodes? A former Padawan reunites with her Jedi Master to investigate a series of crimes but discovers the forces they confront are more sinister than they ever anticipated. As always we are positive and hopeful THE FORCE IS WITH US!#starwars #theacolyte #disney #disney+ #jedi #acolytereviews #disneystarwars #andor #babyyoda #podcast #starwarspodcast

  • 30. ABIDING: Remembering Our Friend

    01:47:11||Season 1, Ep. 30
    We have hit the milestone of 30 episodes of Abiding. A bittersweet milestone as this podcast would not exist in a perfect world, with one of the factors leading to its inception being the loss of Steven Carne. We approach the sad anniversary of his final choice, so a group of his friends have gathered to celebrate happy memories as we talk about our shared laughs and experiences, but this being Abiding; we look at what can and should be done for young men, and adults in general who show the same types of red flags and calls-for-help as Steven did. This podcast exists just to help one person, because Steven could not be helped. So please, look, stop and listen for those who may need any kind of help, as we remember our friend.
