People Are Everything

S06E09 Dr Mitchell Levy | Entrepreneur, Author and Top CEO Coach What if the greatest leadership lessons don't come from business school, but from the people who raised us, challenged us and loved us? In this episode of People Are Everything, Julia Duthie welcomes Dr Mitchell Levy, credibility expert, author and creator of Executive Abundance. Mitchell reflects on five powerful influences: his mother, who gave him an abundant outlook despite financial hardship; his father, who taught him important lessons through a contrasting example; his wife, whose integrity and generosity have shaped their life together; his son, whose confidence and independence fill him with pride; and Ken Cook, the friend whose frank advice changed the direction of his work. Their conversation moves between family, marriage, friendship, credibility and leadership. Together they explore why trust matters more than appearances, how short-term financial goals can overshadow human values, and why the best advice sometimes comes from someone willing to challenge us. Episode highlights: The difference between abundance and scarcity Why actions are more important than job titles How family relationships shape our values The importance of allowing a partner to grow Raising children who understand themselves The friend who changed Mitchell's approach to business Asking who experiences the consequences of a decision A thoughtful, often funny and deeply human conversation about the people who make us who we are.

S06E08: James Hillhouse | Dickens, Dad & the Power of Second Chances What do Charles Dickens, a much-loved grandfather, a remarkable business partner and a German filmmaker have in common? For James Hillhouse, they're all part of the story of who he has become. In this episode of People Are Everything, Julia Duthie welcomes James Hillhouse, co-founder of Commercial Break, an organisation working to create better opportunities for working-class talent in the creative industries. Their conversation explores identity, ambition, fairness, resilience, humour and the moments that change the way we see the world. James shares the five people who have most influenced his life: His father — whose determination, fairness and resilience continue to guide him, even after his death. His grandfather Sid — who taught him that humour and playfulness can carry us through life's hardest moments. Susie Burdekin — his Commercial Break partner, whose influence extends from his professional life to how he raises his children. Charles Dickens — whose writing shaped James's ideas about justice, optimism and being the main character in your own life. Werner Herzog — whose unconventional creativity helped James embrace curiosity, unusual interests and different ways of thinking.   Along the way, Julia reflects on the borrowed clothes that helped her secure her first office job, the lasting impact of losing a parent, and why opportunity matters more than changing who we are. A warm, funny and thoughtful conversation about the people and the moments that help shape us.   CHAPTERS 00:00 Introduction 01:06 Meet James Hillhouse — People Are Everything 05:23 Common People, Commercial Break and creating opportunity 11:48 Social mobility versus financial mobility 20:25 Julia's first career break and the importance of opportunity 26:51 What businesses can do to make a difference 30:12 The moments that shape who we become 34:16 Person 1: James's father — resilience, justice and family 52:06 Person 2: Grandfather Sid — humour and playfulness 1:06:38 Person 3: Susie Burdekin — partnership and parenting 1:15:57 Person 4: Charles Dickens — justice and optimism 1:26:02 Person 5: Werner Herzog — curiosity and creative thinking 1:37:07 Reflections on James's five influences 1:41:15 Why Julia wants to honour the people who shape us 1:43:44 Who should Julia speak to next?   FIND OUT MORE Commercial Break: https://www.commercialbreak.org.uk/ Hosted by Julia Duthie.

S06E06: Andy Hargreaves | World-Leading Education Thinker Andy Hargreaves: The People Who Shaped Him. What's Worth Fighting For? Season 6 continues with Professor Andy Hargreaves. Julia Duthie is joined by Andy for a thoughtful, funny and deeply human conversation about education, family, collaboration, purpose, professional capital and the people who shaped his life. Andy is one of the most influential thinkers in education. His work has helped shape ideas around teachers, collaboration, educational change, sustainable leadership and professional capital. But this episode goes behind the public work. Andy talks about the family who shaped him: his mother’s resilience after being widowed young, his brother Peter and a lifelong love of walking, his grandmother’s kindness, his wife Pauline’s influence on his thinking about sustainability, and the grandchildren who are now such a central part of his life. He also reflects on Mary Hindle, the teacher who truly saw him; David Hargreaves, who modelled intellectual clarity and collaboration; Ann Lieberman, who opened the door to America; and Michael Fullan, whose partnership helped shift the scope and direction of Andy’s work. This is a conversation about teachers, ideas, disagreement, kindness, social justice, purpose and the people who help us become who we are. Watch Andy Hargreaves on People Are Everything now.

S06E05 Accessibility Expert and CEO | Every Ride Changes a Life! | The Five People Who Shaped Andy Nelson Season 6 reaches the halfway point with Andy Nelson, CEO of Ride Connection. Julia Duthie is joined by Andy for a thoughtful, warm and deeply human conversation about community, transport, purpose, family, mindfulness and the people who shaped his life. Andy’s work is built around a powerful idea: people should not be left behind simply because they cannot easily get where life happens. Through Ride Connection, he helps people access healthcare, food, friendship, appointments, community and connection. But this episode goes much deeper than transport. It asks what it means to belong, what a social safety net really is, and why small acts of care can change lives. Andy reflects on his mother’s resilience, his father’s illness and mobility challenges, the family he built with Kathleen and their son, the inspiration he found in public service, and the mindfulness ideas that helped him think differently about life, purpose and the present moment. This is a conversation about connection in its truest sense. Not just how we move through the world — but how we show up for each other while we are here.

S06E04 Leading Addiction Recovery Innovator, Bob Bharij: You’re Not Powerless. You’re Powerful. The Five Women Who Shaped Bob Bharij In this episode of People Are Everything, Julia Duthie speaks with Bob Bharij, co-founder of Foundation for Change, Ashoka Fellow and yoga teacher, about addiction, identity, shame, power, recovery and the five women who shaped his life. Bob’s work challenges some of the assumptions around addiction and recovery. Through Foundation for Change, he helps people understand the relationship between trauma, mental health, social inequality, shame and addiction — and how learning, critical thinking and systemic understanding can help people move from feeling powerless to recognising their own power. This is a conversation about systems, identity and the stories we tell ourselves. It is also a deeply personal conversation about Bob’s mother, Madonna, Björk, Linda Bush and Eileen Gautier — five women who each shaped the way Bob understands authenticity, courage, power, creativity, leadership, the body and the self. Together, Julia and Bob explore what it means to move from “addict” to person, why labels can both help and limit us, how pop culture can open a portal into another world, what a first manager can do for someone’s life, and why yoga can become far more than movement. At the heart of this episode is a powerful idea: You are not powerless. You are powerful.

Romero for a wide-ranging, thoughtful and deeply human conversation about curiosity, belonging, leadership, travel and the people who shaped his life. Jose is a leadership coach, author and global thinker whose life has taken him through 10 countries, five languages and work with major international organisations. But this conversation is not simply about geography, career or achievement. It is about identity, adaptation and the people who give us the courage to step outside the world we know. Jose talks about growing up in Spain, living across Europe, Australia and Asia, and why moving between cultures has helped him understand people, communication and leadership in a more human way. He reflects on the role of curiosity in his life and his forthcoming book, Living and Leading with Curiosity. His five people include his parents, Pepi and Miguel, who gave him both grounding and belief; Eugenia and Sandra, two women who shaped his early career and his understanding of leadership; Karina, the professor who helped him make Belgium a life-changing chapter; Marshall Goldsmith, his coaching North Star; and Dr Peter Chee and Tom, two friends and mentors who continue to shape his thinking.

S06E02: Career Technologist - The Five People Who Shaped Trevor Hunt Julia Duthie sits down with Trevor Hunt for a warm, reflective and deeply human conversation about the five people who helped shape his life. Trevor is a career technologist, portfolio executive and fractional leader whose career has taken him through major financial organisations including Nomura, UBS, Columbia Threadneedle and MUFG Investor Services, with chapters in Japan, Singapore and New York. But this conversation is not really about job titles. It is about the people behind the journey. Trevor brings his five to life through memories, photographs and stories, from the father figures who taught him hard work, discipline and passion, to the friend who has stood beside him since his teenage years, to Lizzie, his wife of 35 years, whose care and steadiness have shaped his life and family. He also shares the leadership lessons he learned from Eugene O’Brien, including the human impact of redundancy and the importance of balancing work, family and self. And finally, Trevor talks about Ray Bricknell — the man who believed in him at a pivotal point and helped him step into the next chapter of his career.   At the heart of this episode is a beautiful idea: The people who influence us are often the people who believe in us.   A conversation about father figures, lifelong friendship, marriage, leadership, work, care, music, cars, and the moments when someone sees something in you before you fully see it yourself.   00:00 Welcome to People Are Everything 01:16 Why Julia loves conversations with Trevor 02:47 Trevor’s 60th, the Decades party and becoming a grandpa 06:06 Trevor’s career in technology and financial services 09:50 How Trevor chose his five people 12:27 Trevor’s visual approach to his five influencers 14:06 Number 1: Father figures 14:53 Roy Hunt — Trevor’s dad and the value of hard work 20:23 Peter Stanford — discipline, pride and history 23:05 Uncle Pete — cars, Brands Hatch and James Hunt 26:26 Trevor’s Formula One driving experience 31:00 Number 2: Paul Charlwood and lifelong male friendship 38:22 Fathers, love and how different generations showed affection 40:25 Number 3: Lizzie, the love of Trevor’s life 43:49 Lizzie’s career as a cancer specialist nurse 48:27 How Trevor and Lizzie met in a nightclub 49:57 Number 4: Eugene O’Brien and leadership in Japan 52:12 The work, family and me-time balance 56:12 The human impact of redundancies 1:02:10 Number 5: Ray Bricknell, the man who believed in Trevor 1:08:34 Just as important: Trevor’s mum and sister 1:10:02 Patrick Lencioni, Marshall Goldsmith and future guests 1:13:50 Samhita Rao and who Julia should speak to next 1:16:08 Trevor’s alternative fives 1:16:38 Top five albums of all time 1:19:51 Final reflections   Subscribe for more long-form conversations about the people who shape who we become.   Hosted by Julia Duthie.

Brad helps founders and companies make what he calls “the second leap” — the move from running everything themselves to building the structure, trust and leadership team needed to truly grow. His five people take us through love, business integrity, self-compassion, technology, optimism and enlightenment thinking. Brad talks about Kim, his wife of nearly 50 years; Jim Vose, who opened the door to a whole new business world; Don Scott, the coach who asked him a life-changing question; Steve Jobs, whose technology and design shaped how we live; and Benjamin Franklin, whose influence opens up a wider conversation about progress, science and optimism.
