We’re back with another episode of Leading Between the Lines. This week we spoke to Carl Martin, People Development and Engagement Lead at Farewill. Founded in 2015 by Dan Garrett and Tom Rogers, Farewill is the UK’s largest will writing service. In the last couple of years the company has raised over £100m for charity, featured on the front page of a national newspaper, and expanded their team from 25 to over 100 people.

Carl is an NLP qualified coach with a real passion for helping people reach their full potential. In this episode Carl discusses Farewill's broader mission to shift the narrative around talking about death, telling us how this key factor helps with employee retention.

Farewill has a strong belief in coaching for execs and employees alike, and Carl goes on to tell us about the company’s desire to cultivate a meaningful growth culture whilst ensuring that people come first.

Carl also talks openly about his own personal struggles with anxiety and how he is dealing with it. He is refreshingly open and honest in the episode, which we found to be very inspiring.
