In the Studio: Meet Our Guests
Guest 1: Gareth Welsh — Clearview Exterior Cleaning Specialists / X-Forces Enterprise
About:
X-Forces Enterprise is a leading UK organisation championing enterprise in the military community. Gareth Welsh, ex-military launched Clearview Exterior Cleaning Specialists in 2019—grounded in service, reliability, and community contribution. No fluff, just high-standard exterior cleaning that does what it says on the tin.
Autumn-to-Winter Qs for Gareth
What does autumn bring for exterior cleaning priorities?
Gutters overflowing? What are the warning signs—and how soon should we act?
Slippery paths/driveways: when is pressure washing the safer call?
Windows looking dull? Best way to restore clarity (and how often).
Roofs & moss: when does a gentle hot steam clean make sense vs. heavier treatments?
Post-building works: top-to-bottom aftercare checklist for a clean, safe exterior—especially with in-laws visiting for Christmas!
Takeaways
Service first, quality always, community at the heart.
Preventative maintenance saves money (and slips) later.
Book early for pre-Christmas exterior refreshes.
Guest 2: Dr Sonya Dilova — Executive Coach & Former Deputy CIO

Her mission: bring humanity into finance.
Leadership & Identity Qs for Sonya
From managing billions in assets to coaching—what belief about leadership/success/personal growth did you completely rethink?
Many women balance impact with the desire to be liked. What are three practical ways to avoid the “likeability trap” while staying authentic and effective?
Expected Nuggets

Boundaries and standards aren’t “unfriendly”—they’re professional.
Influence travels further when your internal narrative supports your external goals.
