Life after Virgin Atlantic!

In this episode, I'm joined by Alex Chisnall, host of the renowned entrepreneurship podcast 'screwitjustdoit' and the visionary behind the Podpreneur agency. Alex is no stranger to the world of entrepreneurship, as he also serves as a mentor at Virgin Start Up, where he helps aspiring entrepreneurs secure funding to launch and nurture their brands. Notably, he brings a unique perspective as a former Virgin Atlantic employee.

As two individuals who have shared the Virgin Atlantic journey, we'll be delving into our personal experiences with Sir Richard Branson and unravelling the secrets to fostering meaningful connections in the workplace.

Tune in as we share our personal insights including:

• Embracing our inherent well-being and discovering the resources within us to thrive.
• Recognising the vital role of a personal touch when integrating new employees into the team.
• Harnessing the profound influence of presence, deep listening, and establishing connections as quintessential leadership attributes.
• Investigating where today's employees find their sense of connection and belonging in the ever-evolving landscape of remote work.
• Exploring the sources of shared experiences for remote workers and their potential Return on Investment (ROI).
• Contrasting the benefits and drawbacks of online training versus in-person, face-to-face training.
• And lastly, we dissect the very essence of connection itself—what truly forges those bonds that bind us in the professional world.

Having fun is good for your health.  Fun increases serotonin, improves your ability to cope with future stressors, boosts your energy, sharpens memory and concentration, improves sleep and your connection with others.  

You don’t need to be sold on the benefits of fun, you just need to be reminded of them.  The next time you are feeling stuck or you’re in a negative headspace, ask yourself, “what can I do to add some fun here?   

If nothing comes to mind, I’m offering suggestions to help you bring more joy and excitement into your life, followed by a guided meditation to bring more joy to yourself and those you love.  It’s time to Hurry Up And Meditate!

In this special mini-episode, Sir Richard Branson, whose Virgin Group controls over 400 companies, shares with LionTree CEO Aryeh Bourkoff the inspiration behind his ambitious and industry-leading space companies: Virgin Galactic, The Spaceship Company and Virgin Orbit. His overarching goal: using “space exploration as a way of improving things back here on the earth.” Tune in for a glimpse of the not-too-distant future.
