Empowering Leaders

Our second guest for the year is Kirsten King, the founder of Fluid Form Pilates, and it's a brilliant success story. In this incredibly transparent, honest, and open conversation you'll hear about the series of events that led to Fluid Form packs being sent by the hundreds to 99 countries across the world, from Afghanistan to Iceland, the US and beyond, and how the challenges of COVID turbocharged Kirsten's business. It hasn't been an easy path to reach this point. Kirsten embraces vulnerability and in this chat she shares the tragic family story that shaped her and her family from that moment on. Kirsten also shares with us the tools she uses to overcome challenges in both life and business, and speaks glowingly about being surrounded by females in her business at Fluid Form. You'll hear how putting family first and taking the lead on making sure her team feel equally as comfortable to live and breathe that value is really important to her. We are really privileged to have Kirsten King as part of our Aleda Connect signature program at Aleda Collective. We love collaborating with people like Kirsten and her group of six other leaders around the globe that learn and share and love to collaborate with each other.

If you're a leader of any type of business, big, small, or maybe you're just starting out with a side hustle, Mike gives away so much valuable advice during this conversation covering all aspects of business as well as handing out some excellent tips for dealing with anyone who thinks they're the smartest person in the room. You'll also hear how some of Mike's greatest teachers are the ones who've gotten it wrong, and, lucky for us, Mike's not afraid to discuss the mistakes he's made along the way, so that you too can learn from him!

There's no doubt that Danny Green is a legend of Australian sport. He's the only Australian boxer to win FOUR world titles across three different weight divisions, and he's also represented his country at Commonwealth and Olympic games level. But that's just the start! Danny is highly respected in the community for his philanthropy and his passion for supporting people from all walks of life. Since 2012 Danny has dedicated himself to (and self-funded) his anti-violence movement, the Coward Punch campaign, and has successfully prevented countless senseless and unnecessary attacks on helpless victims. Since Danny started using the term Coward Punch, it has rapidly replaced ‘one-punch’ and ‘king hit’ in the Australian vernacular used to describe these often deadly attacks, and it's even now used in the courtroom. This conversation is full of laughter as we get some amazing insight in to Danny's friendship with Anthony Mundine, his parenting style and the times in his life that he's been the most terrified (spoiler alert: that story is hands-down the funniest part of the episode)!
