Bob Thompson is an MCIPS-qualified procurement expert and founder of Ideas-Shared, the new Ambition Operating System for individuals (16+), informal teams, and organisations who are looking to overcome adversity and take advantage of opportunities together.   With over 30 years of experience across the Private and Public Sectors and the Military, he knows what happens when great people and organisations fail to deliver on their ambitions and goals, leading to lost opportunities, reduced quality of life, and prolonged and often unnecessary suffering.   Born in Germany but raised in the UK within a military family environment, Bob joined the British Army. For 13 years, he enjoyed an array of operations, living in more than a dozen countries. Afterwards, he built another successful career in procurement and supply, working for blue chip organisations managing significant Spends, building e-Procurement and outsourced solutions.   He met Ivar Ingimarsson, ex-Reading FC Captain, who had an idea to help people with their ideas. Seeing the potential Bob used his considerable skills to design and build a completely unique Ambition Economy that gave Ivar his wish of helping other people develop their ideas. However, he understood that people and organisations have broader issues to contend with and so devised a way to help people change the status quo in every country by realising their own personal, professional and societal goals.   Bob’s mission now is to roll out the Ambition Economy globally and give everyone access to the Ambition Operating System. Following a short trial, members have the option to utilise a unique pay-what-you-can model to keep pursuing their own ambitions and goals within an ad-free, no algorithm environment. Those who simply want to support other members can do so for free for as long as they want.   He believes people know what they want to achieve; however, they lack the systems, scale, and leverage to truly benefit themselves, other people, organisations, and society itself. His Ambition Economy challenges current thinking and conventional online activities, replacing it with pragmatic human-centric solutions that work.   Those who know Bob describe him as visionary, pragmatic, a somewhat eccentric introvert, and straight-talking. He brings a logical yet deeply human approach to overcoming any type of issue big or small, and where the focus is always on benefits realisation. Whatever he does, his ethos remains the same: helping people and organisations achieve more than they ever thought possible.   His mission: A better world. Greater prosperity. Well-being for all. Tangible progress.

READ THE FULL ARTICLE Brainz podcast From Replacement to Regeneration – Brainz Podcast with Professor Paul Lee Professor Paul Lee, orthopedic surgeon and specialist in regenerative medicine, joins the Brainz Magazine podcast for a powerful conversation on joint health, cartilage, and the future of regeneration in modern medicine. In this episode, he challenges the common belief that cartilage cannot heal, explaining why regeneration is not only possible but often overlooked before patients are guided toward joint replacement. Drawing from over 20 years of clinical experience, Paul shares a new perspective on preserving function and intervening earlier. The conversation explores the science behind cartilage, the role of the wider musculoskeletal system, and how engineering, medicine, and innovation come together in his work. Paul also breaks down the difference between real regenerative medicine and hype, and what patients should be aware of when navigating this rapidly growing space. This is an insightful and practical episode for anyone interested in long-term joint health, prevention, and what’s truly possible before replacement becomes the default path.

Emma Toms is an Integrated Wellness Coach, IEMT Practitioner, Reiki Master Teacher, and Certified Safe and Sound Protocol (SSP) Provider based in Glasgow. She specialises in supporting individuals living with chronic stress, autoimmune conditions, and emotional dysregulation, guiding them toward greater balance, resilience, and self-connection.   Emma’s path into wellness began more than 30 years ago, when she was first diagnosed with an autoimmune condition. This experience introduced her to Reiki and somatic practices, which became foundational in her own healing journey. Over time, her professional career expanded across both healthcare and holistic settings, allowing her to build a comprehensive knowledge of mind–body health and integrative approaches to healing.   A turning point came when she was diagnosed with Graves’ Disease following a period of chronic stress. This profound challenge not only reshaped her lifestyle but also deepened her understanding of the link between the nervous system, emotional health, and physical wellbeing. Relocating from Lincolnshire to Glasgow marked a new chapter in both her personal and professional life, solidifying her commitment to supporting others on their own healing journeys.   Emma’s approach blends neuroscience, somatic awareness, and energy-based practices to help clients unlock their body’s innate wisdom. She believes that everyone has the natural capacity for healing, but many become stuck in cycles of stress and disconnection that prevent true restoration. By learning to listen more deeply and respond with compassion, clients are able to access their inner resilience and create lasting change.   For Emma, this work is both professional and personal. Having experienced the transformation herself, she is passionate about guiding others to rediscover balance and strength. Witnessing the profound changes in her clients is, in her words, an honour and a privilege.
