What if organization wasn’t about spotless rooms, but about a life that works when it counts? We sit with Janet Taylor—organiser, corporate trainer, and host of “Got Clutter? Get Organized”—to unpack how a layoff became a launchpad, why safety and boundaries protect both client and pro, and how one small step can reset a day, a home, and even a career. Janet takes us behind the scenes of corporate webinars, reveals the simple habits that fight burnout, and shares the moment a surprise email led to a crown on the Rachel Ray Show!

Janet’s philosophy flips common myths: neatness isn’t the goal—function is. She explains how to build systems that help you find things the first time, save money by stopping duplicate buys, and reclaim attention for what matters. We get real about hoarding boundaries and ethics, why she partners with mental health pros in those cases, and how a “gentle nudge” builds trust without judgment. From repurposing heirlooms—a travel trunk turned coffee table—to creating a monthly bill routine that paid off debt, her stories show how clarity eases stress, grief, and decision fatigue.

If this resonated, follow the show, share it with a friend who needs a gentle nudge, and leave a quick review—what’s the one small step you’ll take today?

A simple swim cap shouldn’t decide who gets into the water. That’s where our guest, inventor and author Tess Padmore, begins—transforming a personal challenge after a brain aneurysm into a patented headwear line designed for textured hair, chemo-sensitive scalps, alopecia, bald heads, and anyone who needs comfort, warmth, and confidence to participate. The story widens fast: disability-informed design choices, university partnerships that replace dollars with resources, and a feedback loop that turns customers into co-designers. Each detail points to something bigger—how inclusive products restore access to health, joy, and community.

We dig into the realities of living and working with a traumatic brain injury—what breaks, what blooms, and why resilience isn’t just grit but smart boundaries and rerouted problem solving. Tess shares how journaling rebuilt her voice, how she learned to ask for clarity when cognition shifted, and how lowering inhibition unlocked a new kind of leadership. Her practical playbook for founders is gold: research before spend, treat local universities as your R&D lab, iterate with real users, and measure success by choices you create, not vanity metrics.

By the end, “all you need is a head” reads like both a promise and a welcome. We talk joy—family, music, nerdy film love—and the global genealogy that helped Tess claim her voice and purpose. If you care about inclusive design, disability entrepreneurship, water safety, and the power of one determined builder to widen the circle, this conversation will stay with you. Subscribe, share with a friend who needs the push to build the thing they can’t find, and leave a review to help more listeners discover thoughtful, human-centred stories like this.

What if the real fix for broken systems isn’t a better press release, but a better way to heal? We sit down with mediator and lawyer Leah Brown—founder and CEO of the Wayfinders Group—to unpack how leaders can move from fire-fighting to genuine repair when conflict, crisis, or scandal hits. Leah’s journey from aspiring violinist to M&A deal-maker to boardroom mediator reveals a throughline: she’s at her best bringing order to chaos and giving people language for what they’re afraid to say.

We also get practical about leadership in the storm: how to mediate at board level without retraumatizing participants, what to do when legal and PR responses fall short, and the daily disciplines—supervision, flotation therapy, sea-air walks—that keep practitioners resourced and safe. If you care about rebuilding trust, advancing ethical leadership, and turning conflict into a catalyst for cultural change, this conversation offers both a blueprint and a nudge to act.

If this resonates, follow the show, share it with a colleague who leads through change, and leave a review with one insight you’re taking into your team this week.
