Your Brain is Lying to You

16/06/2026

Training is one of the ways HIT Leadership helps businesses improve.
Another is finding where money is being lost.

Sometimes that loss is obvious. High staff turnover. Poor communication. Weak processes. Low engagement. Managers are firefighting instead of leading.

Sometimes it is hidden in the culture.

Training helps organisations rebuild shared understanding, especially when standards have been diluted over time through poor recruitment, rushed onboarding, or managers hiring people who feel familiar rather than people the business needs.

I am proud of the image below because the feedback comes directly from recent training I delivered for an international engineering company and their PAN European leaders.

I am grateful for their trust, openness, and commitment to developing better leadership across their teams.

If your company has high turnover, poor engagement, avoidable risk, or a culture that is costing more than people realise, let’s talk.

HIT Leadership helps businesses find the gaps, develop their people, and build workplaces where performance and people both improve.

A few months ago, a charity sleepout at Leicester Tigers Rugby Ground for Falcon Homeless Charity introduced me to some amazing members of the Leicester Tigers Women’s Team.

This weekend, I watched their final game and joined their end-of-season celebrations. What stood out wasn’t the result, but the leadership on display: commitment, accountability, resilience, trust, and recognition.

A great reminder that leadership is about character, especially when times are tough.

I was listening to a Radio 4 discussion about Britain’s political short-termism and it got me thinking.

Businesses often make the same mistake.

We cut training to save money.
We overload good people to hit targets.
We focus on this month’s numbers while creating next year’s problems.

Short-term decisions often feel like success because the pain doesn’t show up immediately.

Then staff leave.
Customers drift away.
Morale drops.
Productivity suffers.

The best leaders I’ve worked with think beyond the next quarter. They balance today’s results with tomorrow’s growth.

In this video, I share what short-termism looks like in business, the damage it causes, and 5 practical ways leaders can break the cycle.

What is one short-term business decision you’ve seen come back to bite an organisation later?

I love Mr Ben and his wise words he distilled all those years ago.

He showed me you can be many things if you put you mind to it, or just found the right costume shop.

With information being readily being available, why wouldn’t you want to grow and develop by learning.

That’s what I did and why I built my company. To help others. Whether via their business or individuallly.

So when someone tells you to “stay in your lane” show them this video and then recommend them to watch Mr Ben.

How the People You're Trying to Help Can Ruin Your Business Plan.

I had five-star reviews. A waiting list. Women finally getting real results.

Then a handful of people sexualised the massage element. And I had to close it down.

Here's what most people never understood about Unknot Therapy.

The women coming through the door weren't broken. They were senior. Competent. Running teams, hitting numbers, holding their own in rooms that had spent years quietly trying to wear them down.

But competence has a cost when the environment is hostile.

Years of being talked over, underestimated, and penalised for showing the stress they had every right to feel. That kind of pressure doesn't just sit in the mind. It settles in the body and stays there.

Coaching couldn't reach it. Mindset work couldn't shift it. Because the wound wasn't cognitive. It was somatic.

So I built something honest. And I built it around a niche: female executives navigating patriarchal environments. Because when you're creating a service, vague doesn't help anyone.

Every modality was earned, not assembled from a brochure.

→ Hypnotherapy to work with the childhood roots that shaped how they responded under pressure. The beliefs about authority and worthiness running silently in the background.

→ Therapeutic massage to release what years of misogynistic treatment had stored in the body. I spent 14 months learning different massage techniques to understand exactly how stress embeds itself physically and what it takes to shift it.

→ Reiki to rebalance what constant survival mode had drained. I became a Reiki Master in 2008 after spending time exploring chakras and universal energy, first for myself, then for others.

→ Counselling to fine-tune the mind once the body had finally let go. I completed Level 3 and Level 4 qualifications in 2022, followed by multiple mental health qualifications and most recently training as a positive psychology and neuroscience coach.

Four modalities. One outcome.

Women walked back out rebuilt. Calmer in their own skin, sharper at the table, outperforming the same people who'd spent years trying to make them small.

And then a small number of people decided the massage element must mean something else. Projection. Ignorance. The kind of assumption that says more about the person making it than about the work.

Five-star Google reviews. A real waiting list. Real outcomes. Closed because of noise from people who'd never sat in the room.

I've written the full story over on the blog, including the letter I wrote the day I closed the service. It's the version I owe the women who trusted the work and anyone still carrying what their environment put on them.

Read it if you've ever wondered what happens when stress lives in the body and nobody's willing to name it.

Like and share if you believe this conversation deserves more honest voices in it. 💛

Most boards still file mental health under HR.

That's why they keep losing money they can't trace.

By the time turnover spikes, the fracture is already six months old. The exit interviews won't tell the truth. The engagement survey won't either. People protect their references.

A trained mental health professional inside the business reads the room differently. They hear what the dashboards can't pick up.

Here's what changes when one is embedded properly:

1) Stress gets named before it becomes attrition. Quiet disengagement has a sound. Most leaders aren't trained to hear it.

2) Sickness absence patterns get diagnosed, not just reported. A spike in Mondays isn't laziness. It's a signal.

3) High performers get protected before they break. The ones who never complain are usually the ones closest to walking.

4) Conflict gets resolved at the root. Not mediated at the surface, then repeated three months later with different names.

5) Leaders get a confidential pressure valve. Psychological safety has to start at the top, or it never reaches the floor.

6) Recruitment costs drop. Replacing a senior operator costs between 6 and 9 months of their salary. Retention is cheaper than charisma.

The companies still treating this as a wellness perk are paying for it twice. Once in lost revenue. Once in the consultants, they hire to explain why the revenue went missing.

A mental health professional isn't a benefit. They're a diagnostic instrument.

The fracture is already there. The question is whether the business finds it, or the P&L does.

Psychological Safety

This is one of my favourite things to train leaders on. Why? Because of the huge impact it has on productivity and performance.

This video hopefully gets across how it can help in businesses, relationships and friendships.

Wishing you a stress free and productive day.

This is not political, nor is it based around religion.

As someone who teaches inclusiveness within business, I can safely say that diversity of thought, equity in understanding, and inclusion at all levels are what make businesses great but also the UK.

I recently trained some PAN-European senior leaders on inclusive leadership, and the feedback has been great, but also the accountability I saw from what people were going to start, stop, or continue doing after the training.

Some examples are:

STOP - talking over people and interrupting them
START - inviting quieter voices into the discussion and having regular check-ins
CONTINUE - saying thank you and creating a safe environment where people feel able to question and challenge without fear.

To be inclusive, we have to accept that there are differences. One difference you have to accept, and cant do anything about, is that every mind is wired differently.

Equity is just fair support. Not the same support, the right support. It recognises that people start from different places. It's about removing obstacles, not lowering standards.

If you remove DEI you:

1. Increase risks within business (people do not feel able to or want top raise things when it's not safe to do so).
2. Risk reputation and market position, which both take an age to build and a moment to lose.
3. Innovations goes, as does creativity.

We are stronger together in business when we are diverse, inclusive and understand equity.
