I know 70.3 is a light snack for some of you ultra-crazies out there. This is my kit for the ride this weekend. I’m a week early for Memorial Day. But the day itself isn’t something I celebrate. Some treat it like the official summer kickoff…or 4th of July Jr. I do it differently. I remember every day. It’s not just the heroes I rode with. I remember the sounds of their families crying uncontrollably during memorial services. And while taps played. 🫡🇺🇸🪖🥾❤️ I don’t know if the life I’m living is worthy of the sacrifices they made. But I can tell you after working from one professional crisis to the next…for multiple corporate masters… Nothing compares to what they gave. <<< Not even close >>> Similarly, nothing compares to the sense of grief or burden. It’s not that I lack empathy. Quite the opposite. I recognize the brewing inner storms of others, and the pitfalls of tactical reactions versus empirically informed strategy. Stacking the challenges means that within the crisis of today and tomorrow, I draw upon the lessons from the wins and losses. …especially the losses, and who was there. All to say, if we’re coworkers, whatever challenge we face isn’t the first crisis, nor will it be the last. No matter how unprecedented. And even through the difficult emotions, it’s important to stay grounded in truth. ➕the Facts that underpin that truth. ➕the history of the individuals and teams that lived it < If you wish to tell stories, remember the focus on the truth > Celebrate the positive. Learn from the negative. And as always, ❤️ Be Kind ()*/+-()*/+-()*/+-()*/+-()*/+-()*/+-()*/+-()*/+- Hi, I’m Mike. I’m a practitioner of kindness through open, honest communication.

What a week at Inspire Youth Zone – full of productivity, growth, and exciting developments! Here’s a round-up of what’s been happening: Started interviews for our new Playwork Manager – exciting times ahead as we bring in fresh talent to help drive our vision forward. Had a great meeting with one of our trustees Matthew Currie to explore a sustainable business idea that will help support the incredible work we do here at Inspire. Took a bit of time out on Tuesday and – got a head start on Christmas shopping! 🎁 Wednesday: A busy one with more interviews for the Playwork Manager, the first meeting of our new look safeguarding team (minus the DSL! 😂), and we kicked off discussions with the wider team about shaping our strategic roadmap for the next 3 years as we look to finalise our new 3 year inspiring young people strategy. Thursday started on a high with a meeting alongside our new Head of Services and Targeted Service Manager (a brand-new role for us) to develop a 3-month plan from the new year for introducing direct engagement programmes for young people alongside our universal offer. The new strategy provide a clear focus on making sure we leave no young people behind. Today took me to Fleetwood to visit the new Boat House facility, love it. Had a brilliant chat with Sarah Lindsay about all things youth work, leadership challenges, and shared ideas. Was meant to be there for a couple of hours, ended up being 4. Definitely feeling inspired after this catch-up! It's a true privilege to be in a role where every day offers something new, and the opportunity for development and growth is constant. So proud of the work we’re doing and excited for what’s to come. P.S.

For every accolade you see on the outside, there's a whole bunch of people and things that happened behind-the-scenes to make that happen. Case and point: This past Tuesday, Victoria Marshman & Dani S Kagan, Founders of Mave & Chez luxury ergonomic slippers (which, if you don't have a pair yet, GET. A. PAIR), invited me for lunch to help brainstorm the growth of my REUNION dance party with them. They sponsored one of our REUNION Dance Parties this Summer and left feeling so inspired and alive while saying, "What's your big dream with this? We want to help you make it happen". And so, this Tuesday, we did just that. They offered a ton of amazing ideas. Suggested a list of people I should connect with + offered to connect me with them, Then paid for MY lunch. I walked away thinking: "Huh?!?!!?" How, and why did that happen? It felt too good to be true. But, building and growing REUNION is showing me the true value of community and collaboration. And, that, when you build something straight from the heart, and lead with integrity, people WANT to help. In just 10 months, we've been able to celebrate a lot of wins with REUNION, including a huge feature on Narcity this week. But, one thing I know for sure, is that none of this would be possible without all of the people and support that happens behind-the-scenes.

We're sold out... AGAIN! and taking pre-orders... AGAIN! Selling out of product can be such a polarizing feeling: 🍸 On one hand, I feel a sense of pride! What we're doing is working & people want to try our product! We did that, Kylie Vonnahme 👏 🍸 On the other hand, I feel frantic. We need more stock! Let's put pressure on our manufacturing and co-packing partners for quicker turn around! We need to change our marketing messaging! *making a mental note to get better at projections* The list goes on. BUT... seeing those pre-orders rolling in DEFINITELY makes it better!!
