Alisoun MacKenzie

“Isn’t Business an Opportunity to be Kind?”

We live in a time when consumers and employees are challenging businesses to do good rather than focus on profits at the expense of people, communities and the planet. Inspired by young  genocide survivors in Rwanda, Alisoun discovered that charitable giving is a powerful way to turn a commercial business into a force for good. In this thought provoking talk, Alisoun shares how fundraising for her humanitarian trips unexpectedly birthed a new compassionate business model, and the part we can all play as consumers in encouraging businesses to care.

Bio: Often described as one of the most authentic and inspiring souls you can meet, Alisoun is on a mission to empower business owners and entrepreneurs to grow profitable businesses that make a difference in the world. Alisoun’s keynote talks, training, mentoring, and best-selling books Give-to-Profit and Heartatude have favourably changed the good fortune of thousands of people worldwide. She loves doing humanitarian work, fundraising and living by the beach in Scotland. https://alisoun.com/

 

Andrew Newman

“Why the last 20 minutes of the day matter.”

Did you ever go to sleep on an argument hoping that you’d wake up the next morning and things would be ‘all better’? Were things better?

The last 20 minutes of the day are an important time for connection, or more specifically re-connection. This is especially important for children who are trying to make sense of the experiences of their day as they transition into sleep. When their day includes moments of feeling unwelcome, shame, or unsafe to be themselves, then these 20 minutes are the last chance to repair the painful separation before it gets embodied during sleep and begins to corrode their self esteem and confidence more permanently. Andrew explores the power of simple connection practices in growing ease, confidence and esteem in adults and children alike.

Bio: Andrew Newman learned a lot about diamonds and gold as a privileged apartheid baby and fourth generation family jeweller in South Africa. However, in response to a deep existential crisis, he turned to spiritual enquiry, and dove into the deep end of healing, psychology and personal development. This left-turn in life astonished even him. His unplanned adventures turned into 12 years of professional training with amongst others, Dr. Barbara Brennan (author Hands of Light) and Jason Shulman (founder of A Society of Souls). Andrew is the founder of the Conscious Bedtime Story Club and is the author of many books for children including “The Boy Who Searched for Silence”, “The Hug Who Got Stuck” and “The Elephant Who Tried To Tiptoe”. http://www.consciousstories.com/
