    What Are You Leaving in 2025 and Amplifying in 2026? Mic Drop Moments with Special Guests This episode was recorded at The Amplify Growth Summit. You can watch all the Summit sessions HERE In this episode of Mic Drop Moments, Sandra Garlick MBE is joined by three members of The Amplify Experience for an honest, reflective conversation about what business owners are consciously leaving behind in 2025 and what they are choosing to amplify in 2026. Joining Sandra are: Sue Palmer-Conn, The Divorce Doctor Jodie Brookes, Founder of Brookes Care Solutions Dani Devren, Soul-Aligned Visibility Mentor Together, they explore the realities of a challenging year for many businesses and share what they’re intentionally choosing to release... from unhealthy money mindsets and overfilled diaries to comparison, burnout, and being visible in the wrong rooms. What’s being left behind in 2025: Overcommitting and running on fumes Attending too many large, noisy events without purpose Comparison and self-imposed pressure Memberships, habits, and expectations that no longer serve Ignoring wellbeing in favour of busyness The conversation then shifts to what each guest is choosing to amplify in 2026, with powerful themes emerging around focus, foundations, and fulfilment. What’s being amplified in 2026: Selective, intentional visibility and curated connections Writing, thought leadership, and creating passive income Putting health, wellbeing, and energy first Building aligned teams and support around the business Creating your own rooms instead of waiting for invitations Honouring purpose, values, and what genuinely lights you up The episode closes with each guest sharing a Mic Drop Moment for the year ahead: Take care of yourself. Don’t build your life around what you think others expect. Energy grows where energy goes – choose wisely. This episode is a reminder that amplifying your visibility doesn’t mean doing more. It means doing what matters, with intention, clarity, and confidence.

  • #203 Turning a Setback into Opportunity with Shelley Wilson

    #203 Turning a Setback into Opportunity with Shelley Wilson
    Jan 19 2026
    In this episode of Mic Drop Moments, Sandra Garlick MBE is joined by Shelley Wilson, multi-genre author and writing mentor, to talk about turning a major setback into a powerful reset. While on holiday in Boston, Shelley opened an email from her publisher with the subject line “We’re closing.” Within weeks, 13 of her books were set to disappear from Amazon, Waterstones, and everywhere else. After the initial spiral (and a much-needed reality check from her daughter), Shelley made a bold choice: reclaim control. She explains what happens when you publish traditionally, why authors don’t always own their rights, and how a reversion of rights letter gave her the chance to rebuild, starting from scratch with Word documents, new covers, formatting, and ISBNs. She also made the tough decision not to republish everything, instead focusing on the books that fit her now, especially romance and rom-com. The turning point? Shelley stepped into her “Taylor Swift era” and launched her own publishing imprint, learning the tech and creating long-term freedom. She’s now able to support writers from idea to published book, and she’s celebrating her next chapter with Book 22, a Yorkshire motorhome rom-com, plus her quirky short-form podcast 'The Campervan Writer Show' recorded from her campervan, Snoopy. Mic Drop Moment Shelley leaves listeners with her go-to quote and the perfect message for anyone facing an unexpected setback: “Leap and grow your wings on the way down.” A reminder that sometimes you don’t wait until you feel ready… you jump, and you build the courage, skills, and next chapter as you go.

  • #202 Why Having Difficult Conversations is Important in Life & Business with Eve Stanway

    #202 Why Having Difficult Conversations is Important in Life & Business with Eve Stanway
    Jan 12 2026
    In this episode of Mic Drop Moments, Sandra Garlick MBE is joined by Eve Stanway, psychotherapist, breakup/divorce coach, and difficult conversations expert, to explore why so many of us avoid the conversations we most need to have, and how one brave moment can change everything. Eve shares the personal turning point that sparked her work: the difficult conversation in which her ex-husband asked for a divorce. While painful in the moment, Eve explains how it became transformational, opening her eyes to the conversations she had been avoiding and inspiring her to write her first book, Conversations at the Shoreline. Together, Sandra and Eve unpack what “difficult conversations” really look like in everyday life, from asking for more help at home, setting boundaries around time and energy, and addressing concerns with friends, to navigating workplace conflict, client boundaries, and partnership tensions. Eve explains that the challenge is often not the topic itself, but the fear of the other person’s reaction, something many of us learned early in life. A standout moment is Eve’s reframe of “keeping the peace.” Avoidance may look like peace, but it can actually create isolation, whereas real peace comes from honest communication and resolution. Eve also shares how her next book (due May 2026) expands difficult conversations into the world of parenting young adults, helping parents and young people communicate better during a stage where relationships often shift, strain, or even break down. She challenges the assumption that social media is the main issue, suggesting instead that adults need to become safer, more open conversational spaces. To help listeners take action, Eve introduces her practical framework, The Magic Three: Clarify, Communicate, Correct: Clarify what you need (using “I” statements). Communicate it calmly and directly. Correct by repeating the message (steadily, as many times as needed) when the conversation goes off track. Eve’s Mic Drop Moment: instead of imagining everything that could go wrong, imagine how different your life could be after the conversation, because life can change with one difficult conversation. Mentioned in this episode: Conversations at the Shoreline (Eve’s first book) Eve’s upcoming book on difficult conversations with young adults (expected May 2026) Find out more about Eve here: Website: https://evestanway.co.uk LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/evestanway JOIN THE COMMUNITY Join the Let’s Get Visible® Community on Facebook: JOIN HERE for inspiration, visibility tips, networking, and a community to lift you up and support you on your business journey.
