When Sir John Amanam Sunday's brother lost his fingers in a 2019 accident, he discovered a glaring void in prosthetic options for people with darker skin tones. This moment of crisis sparked an extraordinary journey of innovation that would transform this Nigerian sculptor into Africa's first hyper-realistic prosthetic artist.

Faced with prosthetics that failed to match Black skin tones, Amanam embarked on research that proved more challenging than anticipated. "There were no research books, no YouTube videos, no journals, no schools where prostheses for Black people could actually be learned," he explains. Undeterred, he became his own teacher, researcher, and student, eventually developing techniques to create prosthetics with authentic melanated skin tones.

What began as a personal mission unexpectedly captured global attention when his work went viral online. Suddenly, Amanam found himself receiving calls from around the world – people from Canada, Ghana, and dozens of other countries seeking prosthetics that would actually match their skin. This overwhelming demand pushed him to formalize his operation into Immortal Cosmetic Arts, now serving clients from more than 60 countries.

The evolution of Amanam's work demonstrates remarkable innovation. Beginning with aesthetically realistic prosthetics, he progressed to manually adjustable versions that could create different hand gestures. Most recently, he and his brother (who joined the company) have developed brain-controlled bionic arms covered with realistic melanated skin – what Amanam proudly calls "Africa's first humanoid bionic arm."

Looking forward, Amanam envisions prosthetics transcending medical necessity to become fashion statements. "People would advance to a point where they could decide 'I want three arms, I want two heads'... It will no longer be a pity thing. It's going to be a fashionable thing." This visionary approach, coupled with his plan to employ a majority of staff from the disability community, positions Immortal Cosmetic Arts at the forefront of truly inclusive prosthetic innovation.

What if the solution to our divided world has been within our grasp all along? Lady Maria Dolores Ehrling, founder of the Human Contract and recipient of the 2023 Ambassador for World Peace Award, presents a revolutionary framework bridging our inherent rights with our evolving responsibilities.

The Human Contract offers a refreshingly balanced approach to human relations. Unlike traditional human rights declarations that focus on government obligations, this grassroots movement emphasizes personal accountability alongside individual freedoms. Built upon seven key promises—ranging from bodily autonomy to collective unity—the framework acknowledges we're born with rights but must mature into our responsibilities. "You have the right to your life," explains Maria Delores Ehrling, "to live with whomever, wherever, and however you like, but not at the cost of any other."

Drawing from decades of experience in human resources and her profound encounters with mortality through funeral work, Maria Delores Ehrling articulates a vision where peace begins internally rather than being imposed externally. She redefines peace beyond the absence of conflict to encompass presence, inner calm, and the courage to stand against injustice. This philosophy powered measurable productivity improvements in her change management work, demonstrating the tangible benefits of helping people recognize their inner dignity—or as she beautifully phrases it, helping everyone "have the crown on their head."

As we transition from nation-centric thinking toward what Dolores calls a "global local world," the Human Contract provides a thin but sturdy framework for navigating this evolution with respect for diverse beliefs and cultural values. The movement aims to unite game-changers across disciplines—from educators and healthcare providers to artists and technologists—in collaborative efforts spanning the next century. Ready to explore your role in this hopeful vision? Connect with Maria Delores Ehrling on social media and remember her parting wisdom: "Your ideas can change the world."

The ground beneath our feet may seem solid, but during an earthquake, everything can change in just 15-20 seconds. In this eye-opening conversation with Chartered Civil Engineer Dr Kubilây Hiçyılmaz, we explore how civil engineering quietly shapes every aspect of our daily lives while revealing the profound responsibility engineers have in creating resilient communities.

Civil engineering isn't just about buildings and bridges—it's about ensuring society itself can function. As Dr Kubilây Hiçyılmaz explains, the term reveals its purpose: "civilian engineering" designed to serve civilian needs. From the water flowing through your taps to the roads connecting communities, civil engineers are the hidden guardians of infrastructure that enables modern life.

The stakes couldn't be higher. When major earthquakes struck Pakistan (2005), Haiti (2010), and Nepal (2015), poorly constructed buildings collapsed in seconds, claiming between 10,000-200,000 lives. These tragedies highlight a troubling paradox: we entrust our families to structures often built by workers with minimal training. Yet through better skills and implementation practices, buildings can withstand nature's most violent forces.

Perhaps most surprising is civil engineering's impact on public health. "Dysentery is not a medical problem; it's primarily a civil engineering problem, Dr Kubilây Hiçyılmaz provocatively states. By providing clean water and proper sanitation, engineers prevent illness before medicine becomes necessary—potentially saving more lives than healthcare interventions.

As we wrestle with infrastructure maintenance challenges, energy needs, and balancing cost against safety, this conversation reveals that civil engineering isn't just about technical solutions—it's about making ethical choices that shape society. What kind of world are we building, and at what cost? The answers lie not only in steel and concrete but in how we value human life and dignity.

Listen now to discover the hidden infrastructure that makes civilization possible and how engineering choices ripple through every aspect of our existence.

What if the oldest ethical principle in human history held the key to transforming your business, leadership, and relationships? The Golden Rule – "do unto others as you would have them do unto you" – sounds deceptively simple, yet remains profoundly underutilised in our increasingly complex world.

Kenyan leadership coach and community leader Sir Simon Macharia joins us for a thought-provoking conversation that reframes this ancient wisdom for modern challenges. He expertly unravels why treating others well must begin with healthy self-regard – you simply cannot give what you don't possess. This crucial insight explains why many well-intentioned leaders struggle to implement ethical frameworks despite knowing better.

The discussion takes unexpected turns as Simon shares powerful client transformation stories, revealing how patience and consistent application of ethical principles create ripple effects across generations. One particularly moving example involves a client battling fear after job loss who eventually became a mentor herself, multiplying the impact of Simon's coaching across continents.

Most compelling is Simon's perspective on reputation in business: "A good name is better than money. You can't buy reputation." This truth cuts through conventional business thinking, suggesting that ethical conduct based on the Golden Rule isn't merely morally sound—it's strategically advantageous for sustainable success.

Whether you're leading a multinational corporation, small team, family, or simply yourself, this episode offers practical wisdom for creating positive change through intentional application of timeless principles. Connect with Simon through LinkedIn to explore leadership development, coaching services, or speaking engagements focused on bringing ethical frameworks into your organisation.

Have you ever considered that resilience isn't something you need to acquire, but rather an innate quality that's been within you all along? In this profound conversation with resilience expert Swier Medema, we explore the revolutionary idea that our natural capacity for mental wellbeing and adaptability is simply obscured by our conditioned thinking patterns.

Swier shares his fascinating perspective on how our brain's protective mechanisms, while essential for physical survival, often create unnecessary mental suffering through anxiety about hypothetical futures. "We worry about things that might happen, which causes all our anxiety," he explains, "but have you ever noticed that what might happen never happens?" This constant vigilance against imaginary threats consumes approximately 30-50% of our thinking capacity - mental resources that could be directed toward creative, insightful thinking.

The conversation takes a practical turn as Swier introduces the powerful distinction between "helping thoughts" and "non-helping thoughts." When we learn to recognize and discard thoughts that invariably make us feel worse than neutral, something remarkable happens - the "brass band" in our head begins to quiet down. Even for those who have experienced severe trauma, this understanding offers a path forward where memories remain but gradually acquire "a little layer of dust on them, so they get a little bit rounder and softer."

Perhaps most compelling is Swier's assertion that our conventional educational and social systems often train us out of our natural resilience. "The average child that starts to walk falls 500 times before it can walk. The average adult gives up an effort for learning something new after three times." By rediscovering the resilience we're born with and understanding how we create our reality through our thinking, we can access greater mental freedom, creativity, and wellbeing.

Listen now to discover how you might reconnect with your innate mental health and resilience - capacities you've always possessed but perhaps forgotten how to access in today's complex world.

Most Americans don't realize that slavery remains legal in the United States, hidden in plain sight within the 13th Amendment's exception clause: "neither slavery nor involuntary servitude except as punishment for crime." This constitutional loophole enables the modern prison industrial complex to exploit incarcerated individuals for what amounts to free labor.

In this eye-opening conversation, human rights activist Tristan Matthew Chen reveals how his journey began at Gettysburg College, where the historical significance of the Civil War battlefield sparked his interest in understanding America's unfinished business with slavery. What started as a student club evolved into TalkListenChange.net, a platform dedicated to ending modern slavery through education and advocacy. Chen explains how mandatory minimum sentencing and three-strikes laws have created a system where people serve life sentences for minor drug offenses—particularly affecting communities of color and those without financial resources for adequate legal representation.

The economic motivations behind mass incarceration become clear as Chen connects the dots between private prisons, corporate exploitation of prison labor, and financial institutions that profit from this system. With Americans spending hundreds of billions on incarceration annually, he argues that treating drug issues as public health concerns rather than criminal matters would be both more humane and economically sensible. The conversation highlights how young activists between 16-30 have historically driven meaningful social change, positioning Chen's generation uniquely to challenge these entrenched systems.

Ready to help end the last legally sanctioned form of slavery in America? Visit TalkListenChange.net to sign the petition advocating for constitutional change, learn more about these critical issues, and share this information with others. As Chen emphasizes, if not now, when? If not us, who?

What happens when a woman transforms her deepest trauma into a global movement for healing? Summer Willis answers this question with breathtaking courage and clarity in our conversation, sharing her extraordinary journey from silent survivor to powerful advocate.

Ten years after becoming a rape survivor during her sophomore year at university, Willis found herself at breaking point – grieving multiple family losses while caring for a newborn. Looking into her son's eyes, she made a decision that would change everything: she would run 29 marathons beginning when she turned 29, despite being unable to run even a mile at the time.

This bold challenge wasn't merely about physical endurance but about reclaiming her narrative. "I was giving myself new titles," Willis explains. "I became a survivor, an endurance athlete, an advocate." Her journey included carrying a mattress through an entire marathon in Central Park (setting a world record) and crawling through half a marathon to symbolise the struggle survivors face. Yet the most profound healing came not from these physical feats but from finally breaking her silence and sharing her story.

Willis founded Strength Through Strides, a non-profit with three pillars: advocacy, policy change, and community building. Now she's testifying before the Texas legislature, fighting for consent laws while organizing a worldwide Denim Day 5K to unite survivors and allies. The statistics she shares are sobering – of 100 reported sexual assaults in America, only one results in conviction – but her message remains hopeful: ordinary people can create extraordinary change.

What resonates most powerfully throughout our conversation is Willis's transformation from victim to warrior. By confronting her trauma head-on and inviting others into her healing journey, she's created a blueprint for turning personal pain into collective purpose. Her testimony reminds us that our deepest wounds, when acknowledged and addressed, can become our greatest sources of strength.

Visit summerswillis.com or strengththroughstrides.org to learn how you can support this vital movement and stand with survivors in your community.

What happens when you treat the book writing process like giving birth? Meet Geo Derice, the self-described "Book Doula" who's helping people birth their ideas into books that transform lives.

In this captivating conversation, Geo Derice reveals how curiosity became his superpower and explains the beautiful metaphor behind his unique approach to book coaching. Just as a birth doula assists in bringing new life into the world naturally and with minimal stress, Geo Derice helps authors nurture their ideas from conception to publication.

Through stories of transformation, Geo Derice shows us the profound impact books can have, regardless of how we measure success. From an author who reluctantly switched topics and landed a traditional publishing deal, to a writer whose healing journey unexpectedly helped her own family member, to a cancer survivor who chose empowerment over anger—each story illuminates how sharing our unique perspectives creates ripples of positive change.

The conversation takes a meaningful turn when Geo Derice, and host, Dr Ariel King discuss the forgotten language of humanity. In our rushed, disconnected world, we've become "more robot than human," losing sight of grace, connection, and the human spirit that binds us. Their discussion of Dr. Ariel King's book "Humanity Unveiled" highlights how authentic human connections transcend status and position, offering a much-needed reminder that we all need each other.

Whether you're considering writing a book, seeking to make a difference, or simply craving more meaningful human connections, this episode offers wisdom and inspiration. As Geo Deice says, "You never know who's waiting to read your story and you never know where your book is going to take you." What story are you keeping inside that the world needs to hear?
