Just got off the Saturday coffee call with Mike, and I have to say it was one of my BEST calls EVER.... THANK YOU! To sit and chat openly about the WINS in 2025, the struggles, and as we head into 2026 having the plan to build the legacy I want to be remembered by, which is what I will spend time reviewing today. The three year plan is in place, the 2026 plan is also in place 😀 and now is the time to realign, stop think and breathe, and work on those key priorities to take the business forward. With just over 25 miles to go on the 300 mile wheelchair ♿️ push, and with surgery looming this coming Saturday 3rd January 2026, the pace of recovery and rehabilitation really resonates with four surgeries to go. I am differently able, not disabled and learnt this through Mike. SO GRATEFUL 🙏 to Mike and the community, as I rebuild and the past six months particularly have been awesome! Wishing you all the best in 2026!

Yesterday evening Juls and I were privileged to attend a B&S end of year celebration. ...And it was nothing like any corporate event/dinner I have ever attended. No seating plan. No hierarchy. No 'formal' speeches. ...just fun, friendly, inspirational shares From the cleaner to the founders. Everyone equal. Everyone valued. It was not a business dinner. It was a family dinner... a frienship dinner And suddenly it became crystal clear why this business has gone from one pharmacy to over £500m. ...And why I have zero doubt we will hit/surpass £1bn within 3 years. This business does not talk about values. It lives them. If I had to sum up what I saw, felt and experienced in 5 words, it would be 5 Ps. - People - Passion - Pride - Principles - Processes People first. Not on posters. In behaviour. You could feel it in the room. The ease. The respect. The shared purpose. No airs or graces. No power plays. Just people who matter 'knowing' they matter. Passion that shines through generations. Multiple generations working together. And a genuine commitment to employ future generations of their people too. This is not telling people they are important. This is showing them. Pride in every role. Every customer. Every transaction. Principles that are lived, not laminated. For everyone. At every level. And processes that think beyond today. Not How do we fix this fire? But How do we build a system so it never happens again? Always asking Who is best in the world? What are they doing better? How is the world changing? And how must we change to stay ahead? Samit & Alpa are extraordinary people. Their Children are shining examples continuing that legacy Kish a shining example of that next generation Giving back at scale. Building free schools for hundreds. Growing people as the business grows. Founded on values that are embodied every single day. I do not often call out individual companies on this platform. But this is an outstanding example of how to build something special.

Really enjoyed the Coffee call this morning with @Mike Greene and a few of the hardcore Saturday group (*which led to another idea for the new business - thanks for the space to be creative). The follow-up Zoom call on the One Day, One Plan workshop, which I thoroughly enjoyed last week, sitting amongst like-minded individuals, who have become business associates and colleagues. Through the chat in the Growth Syndicate, I was chatting with Godfrey just now, and believe it or not, he is away for his Birthday weekend with his Wife, yet still took the time to dial in for our calls. That shows the power, and honestly, the business owners who are prepared to do what it takes, and that is why I dial in when I can and maximise every time I can. Well done @Godfrey Muneri. You rock, man! Today, I finished the plan for 2026, and I feel so much more in control, with clear measures, and it also gave me further inspiration and ideas. Thanks Mike for the push, and now can't wait to see the results in 2026! Just enjoying a 0% Guiness to celebrate......

Sorry I’ve not been In lessons @Mike Greene I’ve been out working it grafting it.. not sure if they call it manifestation..
