Peter and Nicola share their approach to ghostwriting and book coaching, including how they help business owners, coaches, consultants and experts move from idea to published book with clarity and structure.

What if colour wasn’t just what you wear… but who you are?

In this fireside chat, colour coach and founder of ChroME Kate Harrison breaks down the psychology of colour in a way you’ve probably never considered before.

We go beyond aesthetics, into energy, emotion, and identity. She'd joined me in the Hub explaining not only the psychology of colour, but how coaches, therapists and businesses owners can use colour to make more impact. What we discussed:

✨ Why certain colours feel right (and others don’t)

✨ How your “soul shade” shapes your confidence and presence

✨ Using colour intentionally in your life, brand, and growth This isn’t about trends. It’s about alignment. If you’ve ever felt disconnected from how you show up, this conversation will hit differently.

What has Sertraline, Heroin, and a Bucket of Paint got in common❓️ Think of you mental health like a leaky pipe dripping on a ceiling causing a stain. Do you mask the stain with paint or do you fix the leaky pipe? For anyone struggling with mental health challenges, it’s easy to reach for a quick fix to just get through the day. But, in the quiet spaces, the pain often remains, hidden yet persistent. For those on medications like sertraline, if it’s still a battle, you’re not alone. It’s okay to feel like there’s more work to be done, like true relief is still out of reach. Opening up to the deeper, underlying causes of pain can be daunting—but it’s a step towards real healing, beyond temporary relief. What if a quick, effective, natural way was possible without drugs or long spells of therapy existed. It does and its available to you today.

In today’s episode, Marcus and Paulina dive deep into the psychology of fear, focusing on why we tend to avoid the unfamiliar. We explore how people often get stuck in their thoughts and beliefs, dismissing new ideas or opportunities without fully understanding them.

We discuss:

• Fear of the unknown: Why it stops us from growing and evolving.
• Judgment and missed opportunities: How making assumptions without research can hold you back.
• Breaking through fear: Strategies to move past fear, whether it’s related to your mind or body, and how to embrace the unfamiliar for personal growth.

Join the conversation as we unpack these ideas and offer practical steps to help you break free from limiting beliefs and live more openly.
