From time to time, we like to put out a news piece about some of the podcasts some of the speakers we work with have either presented or have featured on.

Whilst we cannot feature all of them, these are a few of the podcasts you might to consider when looking for something inspirational or business related. 

Pride Month is taking place again this year in June. Pride month is about acceptance, equality, and celebrating the work of LGBTQ+ people, and raising awareness of issues affecting the LGBTQ+ community.

If you are planning an event to mark Pride Month these a just a few of the speakers we work with who we would recommend.

Have you ever been tried to be set up as supplier and it takes forever?

Or want to speak to someone and there is no phone number or their number is not allowed to be given out?

Or have you replied to an enquiry and then never heard anything back?

We all have our frustrations in our job and these are a few of mine and perhaps there are things we can do better ourselves too. However, If you are looking for someone who can offer advice on good customer service these are a few speakers we work with that can help.

Our book of the Month for April 2026 is “Lessons From A Clown: How To Find Courage To Show Up For Yourself and Laugh Every Day” by the Comic Coach, Em Stroud (and Orange!)

In Lessons from a Clown, Em Stroud and Orange share how you can show up more confidently, and embrace opportunities while allowing yourself to have fun and find joy again.

For over 20 years, Anj Handa has worked at the intersection of equality, leadership and structural change: as a professional lobbyist, governance specialist, consultant, community builder and speaker.

Anj is the Founder of Inspiring Women Changemakers (IWC), a community and consultancy working toward a world that is safer and fairer for women and other marginalised people.

Her work is grounded in a single, unfashionable conviction: that women’s inequality is not a pipeline problem or a cultural inconvenience. It is a structural failure, reproduced through the design of organisations, boards and institutions that were not built with women in mind, and have not been adequately redesigned since.

Anj has recently updated us on her new speaking topics
