Off the Court

A beautiful chat with Rachel Jones, who works for the NHS as a physiotherapist specialising in supporting stroke victims recover.  She is a big part of our NBC family too - making an impact wherever she wanders.  Our chat went into the idea of internal and external validation, impact of social media and tools to improve one's self-esteem.

A refreshing insight into a young man with a strong faith in God who sees the world through a lens of curiosity.  Josiah is a 20 year old University student from Halifax who aspires to coach basketball and sport as a tool to help young people as well as spread the word of the 'Gospel'

A thought provoking conversation on the power of words.  Whether this be at home in our relationships, at work in teams or even to ourselves... we hold the power to transform how we feel with language

An elegant conversation with Violet Nhamo - a Family Therapist from the West Midlands who makes a difference on a daily basis.  Violet attended NBC as a camper many years ago and is now giving back each summer as an inspirational coach and mentor where it all began for her - at NBC Camps.  This is a beautiful discourse on the value of therapy and impact it can have on you.

A great Off the Court conversation with Zakeus Blue on empathy and the importance of it on our society.  Zak lives in East London and is on a personal mission to develop more empathy in the world!

A beautiful and yet challenging conversation on the idea of forgiveness.  A concept that seems logical and easy to understand but so difficult to put into practice when it applies to us!   A link to the story of Mrs Walker's loss can be found here - I would encourage you to take the time to watch it:https://www.bbc.co.uk/bitesize/topics/z76ykqt/watch/zjt2fg8  

A thought provoking meander into the idea of our search for purpose.  The reasons why we should look for our purpose, some tools to do that and what may come of it!  Happy listening

A wonderful conversation about the differences and similarities of the UK and USA education systems and then onto an incredibly aspiring principle of Mudita - taking joy in others' joy.  Buddhist by origin, selfless and compassionate in its idea.

A wonderful conversation with a great friend on Leadership - is it natural or nurtured? How can we all look for moments to lead?  What happens when we fail?

An elegant conversation with teacher, coach and friend Becky Dunne on the hot-topic of gratitude.  It's a long over-due discussion on transforming an attitude of gratitude into a daily practice that has an impact on your life.  Becky makes it real and brings the practice to life by making her own daily routine and reflects on how this has transformed her thinking and relationships with others
