A refreshingly authentic, unpretentious and uplifting podcast. Simon's approach to interviewing people with fascinating and impressive stories is so subtle and somehow calming. If you want inspiration and fortification, but you don't want someone throwing you high-fives and "10 tips...Read full review »

The Turning The Tables interviews provide us with a window onto the human condition and overcoming life's challenges.

Stories of people’s lives who are so driven, often with humour and always such positive messages, I think all of us can take much away from. Simon is a great catalyst in enabling great flow and content from his guests and at the same time just lets them get on with it. If your are into your...Read full review »

Sometimes there's nothing better than asking someone asking a few good questions and then stepping back and letting them talk. You can almost hear Simon's interviewees discovering insights into themselves as they go, that slight pause when people suddenly hit on the truth. It makes for a...Read full review »

This podcast has a way of feeling soothing and comforting yet pullIng me intellectually to perspectives that I need to see. Somehow hearing these stories and the host’s refections/reframing of them allows me to see it for myself better than being told. I love learning from people I never would...Read full review »

We all have challenges we need to overcome. Hearing how others have overcome their challenges - in the case of the interviewees some very substantial ones - can provide the spark we need to surmount the obstacles we face. Having faced health challenges of his own, Simon is a very empathetic...Read full review »

I’m absolutely loving the Dealing with Adversity podcasts from Simon. The range of interviewees and the past (and present) they overcome is enlightening. In today’s world, this encourages me and reaffirms my positivity in seeing shining lights at the end of this most challenging tunnel. Ian

Like having a cup of tea with cream and reassuring conversation with a good friend by a cozy fire during winter, this well-produced show is a pleasure to listen to. Wrapped up in warm blanket of soothing music, the message is one of hope and finding the silver lining in any cloud.
