It’s an honour and a true privilege to welcome Luke Whiting to the Eden Hive podcast, founder of Hailo, a ground-breaking SaaS platform set to revolutionise the church through AI. With Hailo launching in just two weeks, the fact that Luke made the time to sit down with me speaks volumes about his heart for people and his commitment to serving the wider Church.
Luke is a serial founder with an extraordinary track record. Over the past decade, he and his team have built and exited 11 faith-based tech start-ups, raised over £100 million, and achieved multiple eight-figure valuations. Their network now reaches more than 10,000 decision-makers across global ministries. I could list achievement after achievement - truly, his LinkedIn tells a remarkable story.
But what impacted me most wasn’t his success; it was the spirit behind it. Luke carries a genuine love for Christ, and his motivation is rooted in touching and transforming lives for God’s kingdom. That authenticity, rare even among the most accomplished founders, is what sets him apart. Luke is one of those leaders called to shake nations, to reveal God’s power in the marketplace, and to do it while remaining humble, grounded, and anchored in the Word.

I’m delighted to introduce the lovely Linsey Melo da Silva from Forge and Equip.
We first connected through our mutual connection Ian Dibb at Wayfinder, and while this conversation was fantastic, we both felt that even our very first introduction could have been a standalone podcast in itself!
Forge and Equip is doing remarkable work in East Lothian, Scotland—crafting custom, sustainable fabrications and offering supportive training opportunities that empower people in practical and meaningful ways. Their heart for the circular economy, combined with a commitment to excellence and fair pricing, truly sets them apart.
But this isn’t just about fabrication. It’s about forging transformational opportunities—one spark at a time.
Linsey and her husband carry a beautiful fire for God that shines through both their lives and their business. It’s no surprise that people feel drawn to stop by, say hello, and experience the warmth of what they’re building.
I can’t wait for you to hear this conversation.

From Private Wealth Banker and Consultant to Entrepreneur, Tom moves through the marketplace with both wisdom and skill. I first met him when he presented at a Business Masterclass, where he shared his expertise on biblical wealth.
I’m always amazed at how God opens doors to meet and connect with such inspirational people, Kingdom-minded marketplace leaders whose work either directly serves the Kingdom or thoughtfully weaves Kingdom principles into business. Tom is a wonderful example of this.
You’ll definitely want a notebook and pen for this session; there’s so much valuable insight to take in. And if it leaves you hungry for more, be sure to check out the Masterclass link below or connect with Tom directly.

Everyone’s talking about AI and its impact on the future workforce — but what about our children?
This one’s a special conversation. I’m thrilled to introduce Cesar Ruiz, who is redefining how we nurture the mental, emotional, and physical wellbeing of children through MedTech and EdTech powered by embodied adaptive AI. I almost had a bit of a cry (but held it together!) — Cesar’s story, especially his introduction, is deeply moving. It’s a beautiful reminder that God truly works through signs, wonders, and miracles.
Cesar is a serial entrepreneur and growth leader who has driven over $100M+ in new revenue across hardware–software ecosystems at Samsung, Lenovo, and Apple. Since 2017, he’s led as COO, scaling ventures globally and achieving up to 571% year-over-year revenue growth. A software developer by trade, he’s built high-performing teams, turned $1K into $10M in monthly revenue, and developed innovative ecosystems that transform purpose into profit.
His mission is simple yet profound: to ignite and foster the full potential of every child.

This episode is really special. We’re coming up on one year since Bruno and I first connected on Instagram — and from the moment I saw his content, it spoke right to where I was starting a new chapter in my life.
Bruno Genovese is a brilliant Christian Business Mentor / Coach, Founder and Board Advisor. 20+ Years Building & Scaling Businesses, 8-Figure Exit, and a Kingdom Business Strategist.
Bruno leads with peace, faith, and professionalism. Through his community, God planted the seed for my own idea, and since then, his encouragement and wisdom have been such a blessing.
I’m so humbled to have him on the Friends of Eden Hive podcast. Bruno’s journey is inspiring, and I can’t wait for you to hear more about what he does, how he does it, and how he walks every step with God beside him.

I’m so humbled and grateful to introduce this guest — Ps Humphrey Simbeye. We met a little over two years ago through an e-Group — what many call a connect or small group — and since then, he’s been a true brother in Christ. A man full of God’s Word, always checking in, praying, and standing firm in faith.
If you caught our last episode, this is the giant in the Spirit I mentioned. And one of my most unforgettable moments with Ps Humphrey was a New Year’s Eve when he prayed over a sealed bottle of olive oil — and I literally saw God move in a supernatural way leaving my hands full of oil.
Ps Humphrey runs a full-time ministry, has launched different small businesses, and is always full of fresh ideas — including his latest, a car wash in Zambia.
To my African family in Christ — remember, Eden Hive is for every believer and every business, big or small. God can use your visibility for divine connections and opportunities.
