KEY TAKEAWAYS

• Tough coaching taught Athena consequences and accountability. Her coaches ensured there would be consequences if she wasn't following instructions or skiing to her fullest potential, teaching her resilience and showing up.
• Lyme disease took Athena from athletic peak to chronic pain, she was diagnosed eight and a half years ago, going from top athlete to barely getting out of bed with 10 out of 10 pain.
• Athena writes goals in present tense daily as part of her morning routine. She learned to write "I am healing, I am healthy, I am full of energy" even when those things weren't true, creating neural pathways in her brain.
• Athena created a greatness tracker system for weekly accountability, she prints out weekly action items including face to face meetings, phone calls, notes, open houses, events, plus health goals like gym visits and clean eating.
• Visualisation has always helped Athena achieve her goals. If she could visualise landing a trick she'd never tried in her head, she knew she could land it in real life; now she visualises sales and happy clients.
• Real estate requires the same mentality Athena had as an athlete, she believes you need "a little bit of psychosis" to succeed in real estate, the same type athletes have.
• Goal setting prevents Athena from going on disability despite chronic illnesses, most people in her position go on bed rest and disability, but if she did that she'd be so depressed it would be game over for he.
• Athena views manifestation as consistent goal-writing by hand, writing goals by hand tells your brain what's important and helps recognise opportunities, making manifestation practical.

BEST MOMENTS

"I've pretty much been setting goals since I came out of the womb, even if it was unintentional." 

"Half of the feat of reaching a goal is the simple act of showing up." 

"If I could visualise, if I could close my eyes, visualise myself landing a trick that I had never tried before, but I landed it in my head, I knew that I could land it in real life." 

"I reckon we could get rid of a certain amount of mental illness if we could get more people to be goal oriented." 

"When you're in the midst of adversity, it's actually the most important time to create goals and to create those actionable steps, because that is what is going to keep your mind engaged in a positive manner."

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• Nikola shifted from being the UK's leading low-carb expert to serving women with chronic conditions in business after realising her most loyal clients shared these two characteristics and needed specialised support.
• Nikola sold her property to go all-in on her mission after years of managing her mother's illness and death.
• The HOPE protocol for nutrition, PATH for mindset work, and FLOW formula for sustainable business practices tailored to chronic conditions are three interconnected systems Nikola has created.
• Rejecting the 9-to-5 model, Nikola schedules high-energy tasks after 2 PM when she's naturally most productive. She works as a night owl and designs her business around energy patterns.
• Nikola has won 26 awards with her lifestyle approach, focusing on permanent change rather than temporary diets, emphasising adult choice and eliminating shame-based language around food decisions.
• She resisted goal setting for years, believing goals would trap her, Nikola only embraced them when she realised they're actually requests to the universe, not restrictions.
• Her business model prioritises collaboration over competition, incorporating feminine energies of cooperation and win-win outcomes rather than traditional masculine hustle culture that leads to burnout.
• Nikola's currently beta-testing her signature program and discovering it's more comprehensive than initially planned, requiring six months rather than nine weeks to properly serve her clients.

BEST MOMENTS

"The mind is like a puppy and it will run around all over the place. And our job as the thing in charge of our mind's puppy is picking up the puppy and bringing it back to where the focus is."

"When you ask the universe what you want, it will give it to you. Might take a while. Sometimes it delivers sideways, but it will always manifest itself."

"You can never be too specific. Would be my one goal setting tip."

"We always, always overestimate what we are able to do in a year and seriously underestimate what we can achieve in five."

"Never be scared of having a goal. Because when you have it, it can happen. But if you don't have it, you are just gonna wander along in your life on autopilot and things will happen to you rather than be caused by you."

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• Neil attributes his ‘luck’ or success to two things: adding value for others whenever you can and exchanging contact details with anyone you meet.
• It costs nothing to be kind and you don’t know when this kindness might come back to you.
• Neil’s big audacious goal is to create a training programme that can help others do what he does. He wants to share his knowledge and help those struggling financially to have the belief and confidence to get started in what he does. 

BEST MOMENTS

“Always be very, very specific with what you wish for. In other words, how you set your goals.”

“ I put it down to two habits. One is always try to add value to others whenever you can. However you can, wherever you can without any expectation of reward. And the second habit was exchange contact details with everybody you ever know."

“ Just do these things, you know, be kind, be nice, give a little bit extra. It doesn't cost anything and you never know where it's gonna come back to you.”

 ”It's about goals coming true. We are all empowered to help other people achieve their goals and when we do that without expectation of reward, reciprocity kicks in.”

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• Tyler believes in deeply understanding your "why", when you know what truly motivates you beyond surface level, you'll have extra fuel to pursue your goals with determination.
• Visualisation drives Tyler's success, he keeps three horizons of goals visible on whiteboards everywhere: weekly goals, yearly goals, and 'delusional' long-term visions.
• Daily journaling transformed Tyler's accountability, he writes at least one bullet point every day about goal progress, framing entries as if leaving a legacy of lessons for his three sons.
• Tyler strategically chose property for his business, targeting a market with predictability (50% of renters move yearly), growth potential (housing shortage) and opportunities for innovation.
• Building company culture is about psychology, not spreadsheets. Tyler focuses on making systems simple for his team, connecting them to purpose and creating transparent processes.
• Tyler gives managers equity in his companies, ensuring team members' interests align with company goals, so when he discusses selling the company, they are invested.
• Tyler credits vulnerability for his growth, he intentionally put himself in rooms where he felt inadequate and embraced being 'the dumbest person there' to accelerate learning rather than trying to appear clever.

BEST MOMENTS

"If I don't write it down, if I don't have a deadline, if I don't have some sort of tractional plan, it just doesn't happen. And I've learned that about myself so literally every single capacity that I do in my life is goal oriented."

"Every single day I need to be able to see the goals I have. So, at my office, at my home where I'm at now, I have a simple whiteboard and in as little space as possible, I keep those things. Here's my goals for this week, here's my goals for this year, and here's my crazy, if I showed anybody this, they would think I'm delusional."

"When you understand why you do things first, you gotta preface that when you understand what you're motivated about and why the, you're gonna, you're gonna have some extra fuel."

"Growing a big business, you need to first look at the market that you're getting into 'cause it matters. You don't want to be getting into a profession that's so dependent on one person and it's a dying industry."

"I look at the companies I have today and how quickly they have grown and all the accolades and whatnot. All of those things started in my head way before they actually came tangible and anybody can do these kind of things."

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• Longyards solves a market gap by providing month-to-month rental of fenced outdoor storage spaces for contractors, landscapers and businesses who need flexible storage without long-term leases.
• Chris started with handwritten goals beside his mirror, focusing first on paying off debt, then building credit and buying property, eventually evolving to using the Entrepreneur Operating System (EOS) to manage company wide objectives.
• The industrial outside storage market is gaining institutional recognition, with major investors like JP Morgan entering the space, creating significant growth opportunities.
• Chris attributes his success to his background and his grandfather's influence, emphasising relentless hard work, knocking on doors and solving problems through persistence rather than shortcuts.
• After losing everything in his contracting business, Chris rebuilt and became financially free within three years by applying the lessons he'd learned and working smarter with fewer employees.
• Longyards is expanding through partnerships with high income earners who have business or real estate experience, where Longyards provides expertise while partners bring local knowledge and financing capabilities.
• Chris measures success not just by growth but by brand recognition, his goal is to make Longyards the household name people think of when they need to rent outdoor storage space.
• For effective goal setting, Chris recommends focusing on getting 1% better daily rather than attempting dramatic changes, breaking big goals into small achievable steps that accumulate over time.

BEST MOMENTS

"My goal was to become financially free and I used storage yards to achieve that... basically it's a cash cow. It brings in over 40k a month. And that allowed just to basically change my life.”

"The easier that you push, the more you push that easy button later on, the harder life gets and I was pushing that hard button at the beginning and now my life is getting easier."

"Even though I had hard conversations and hard things to do, I had those hard conversations with people when I wasn't getting paid... I paid everybody. I kept my word. I did good by everybody around me, and I was transparent."

"Don't try to get the gold, get a bunch of pieces of silver and get better at collecting a bunch of pieces of silver, and then it turns into gold."

"As the company evolves and my skillset evolves as a CEO and a founder with a big mission, these set of goals have evolved to what's called EOS. And I'm not sure if you've heard of EOS. Maybe it's more of a western culture term, but it's what's referred to as the entrepreneur operating system."

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• Rohit focuses on being a business growth partner rather than just handling compliance, actively helping clients with business strategy, acquisitions, and fundraising.
• Creating a relaxed, trust-based environment is central to effective client relationships; Rohit designs his office for comfort and conversation rather than formal meetings, allowing clients to openly share concerns and ambitions.
• Rohit's big hairy audacious goal is to make every SME in the world 1% better, recognising that the 5.5 million SMEs in the UK (99.8% of all companies) need greater support and representation on the global business stage.
• Effective goal setting must be holistic, connecting business targets to personal purpose; entrepreneurs should question the why behind numerical targets to ensure sustainable growth aligned with their true motivations.
• Small habit changes can trigger major lifestyle improvements, as Rohit discovered when a simple 30-minute morning walk created a cascade effect improving his mental clarity, work efficiency, eating habits, and overall motivation.
• Taking time for self-care isn't selfish but necessary. You can't give from an empty cup, and personal health enables better service to clients and family.
• Delegation is a critical skill for business growth, many entrepreneurs struggle with relinquishing control, but without delegating, they can't scale their business.
• Sharing both successes and challenges creates authentic connections, entrepreneurs should talk about their struggles alongside their highlight reels.

BEST MOMENTS

"We're certainly not stuffy accountants... We actually enjoy what we do, and we don't just file forms." 

"I see myself as someone who's trying to help the business grow into the next level, not just sort of file and be the tax guy." 

"For me it was that walk at 6 AM in the morning. It sounds a bit scary getting up that early, but to be honest with you, once you're out of your bed and you kind of walk, you kind of sleepwalk anyway."

"None of us are that important. To be fair, there's only a few really important people out there in the world. They tend to be brain surgeons, I would imagine, right?"

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• Julie emphasises that we're all inherently goal driven, but many entrepreneurs abandon structured goal setting when leaving corporate jobs, only to realise after about five years that they need clearer direction to achieve meaningful success.
• Leadership starts with self-awareness, understanding your personal style affects everything around you, yet many resist examining themselves deeply. Julie experienced this firsthand when she "unpicked" herself, didn't like what she found, but ultimately redesigned who she wanted to be.
• io is Julie's new AI-powered platform that streamlines book writing, publishing, marketing funnels, and podcast creation all in one place. It’s designed to help entrepreneurs establish authority and create recurring income streams.
• Publishing books establishes authority in entrepreneurial spaces. Some people earn substantial recurring income through strategic book publishing and marketing, with Julie mentioning individuals making £13,000 monthly through Amazon book sales and ads.
• Our goals are often unconsciously inherited from parents, caregivers and generations before us. True goal setting means unpacking these inherited beliefs and consciously creating your own mission and vision.
• Delayed gratification is Julie's golden nugget for successful goal achievement. Prioritising long-term benefits over immediate rewards in financial decisions, health and relationships creates sustainable success and stability.
• Julie completely transformed her life at age 52, age shouldn't limit reinvention. She proves that with hustle and working smart rather than just hard, change is always possible.

BEST MOMENTS

"If we don't have our own goals, we will achieve somebody else's. We don't know whose goals we are achieving. They are indoctrinated into us as we grow up and we carry generational goals with us."

"I unpicked myself once, didn't like what I saw, got confused, and then changed bit by bit by bit to design me and I'm really happy with who I am."

"In this entrepreneurial world, we've all got a book inside of us, all of us. We've all got more than one book inside of us... Having a book gives you an authority stamp."

"The biggest thing, and I'm sure you will have spoken about it before and it is not earth shattering, I've had to learn it, it is one of the most important things to learn to achieve something that you truly want, and it's two words, delayed gratification."

"When you really, truly want something, really want it, you can achieve it. You can…nothing sits in isolation, everything is connected.”

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• At 21, Holly set an audacious goal to become a professional skydiving camera woman despite having no experience in skydiving or filming. By saving money, learning the skills, and persisting despite gender barriers, she achieved this goal, setting a foundation of self-confidence that influenced her future adventures.
• Holly's experience becoming the first woman to skydive Everest taught her the power of intention setting and perseverance in securing sponsorships. Despite not having £24,000 for the expedition, she said "yes" first and then found sponsors to fund her vision, demonstrating how commitment precedes resources.
• When faced with unexpected challenges during her adventures, like being caught in a storm on Everest or losing horses in Mongolia, Holly learned to make critical decisions independently.
• Holly transformed from wanting selfish indulgences in adventure to creating adventure with purpose by founding "How Many Elephants" and "World Female Ranger Week," using her platform to raise funds and awareness for conservation causes that received 500 million views.
• Her work with female anti-poaching rangers in Africa represents her most meaningful adventure because it combines real danger with genuine purpose beyond personal achievement.
• Despite feeling like an imposter during her master's degree, Holly earned the highest mark ever given because she discovered something she was truly passionate about.
• Having supportive parents who didn't push her but encouraged her to follow her interests allowed Holly to develop a natural drive and confidence to pursue unconventional goals, from competing in sports to skydiving professionally.
• Holly's golden nugget for goal-setting is to "Say it out loud and watch what happens." Voicing your goals to others gives them momentum, creates accountability, and transforms them from thoughts to actions—pushing you beyond your comfort zone where true growth happens.

BEST MOMENTS

"This 60 seconds of sheer terror completely changed the course of my life. I loved it and I wanted to go back up and do it again straight away. But nobody had told me that people were getting paid to jump out of perfectly good airplanes every day of the year." 

"I call this hanging onto my 21-year-old mindset, and now I'm 46 and I've kept trying to keep this mindset going over the last two and a half decades, and that's taken me on some pretty incredible sponsored adventures around the world." 

"These days, for me, it's all about adventure with purpose. I use adventure as a platform to raise funds and raise global media attention for a greater good than me jumping out of an airplane or me climbing a mountain." 

"Conservation without funding is just conversation. So it's about getting the money to the right places without the middleman." 

"When you've got your big audacious goal, say it out loud and watch what happens. The minute you voice it and you start chatting to people about it, it suddenly grows arms and legs, but in a really good way."

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• Inherited wealth arrives "like a meteor crashing into your world," requiring emotional, psychological, and spiritual integration alongside practical wealth management skills. This is a completely different experience than accumulating wealth yourself.
• Money acts as a magnifier of existing patterns, those who tend toward luxury purchases will amplify this behaviour, while those uncomfortable with wealth might struggle even with small indulgences like buying the expensive coffee.
• Inheritors face unique challenges including feeling they've missed out on career accomplishments, experiencing loneliness from keeping wealth private, managing complex financial situations and feeling dependent on systems they don't fully understand.
• True work-life balance begins with a conscious decision to prioritise balance. Melissa likens it to creating a beautiful bouquet by being intentional about which flowers to include rather than trying to include everything.
• Setting intentions allows for more spaciousness than rigid goals, creating room for flexibility while still maintaining direction toward desired outcomes.
• During life changes, we experience chaos between our old normal and eventual new normal - practicing self-compassion during this phase helps us move forward.
• For meaningful goal setting, create a space away from daily life where goals can emerge from excitement and heart's desires rather than fear or external pressure.
• Many wealthy clients focus on philanthropy rather than extravagant lifestyles, channelling resources toward causes they're passionate about to create meaningful change in the world.

BEST MOMENTS

"When you accumulate it, you have a relationship with it, and when you inherit it, it's like this meteor crashing into your world and it's completely foreign."

"Money is a magnifier oftentimes. I've worked with clients on the flip side who grew up with wealth, but they didn't embrace the wealth so they lived very well below their means."

"My golden nugget about goal setting would be to, when you're setting goals, be in, I think of it as like an extraordinary space, go take a weekend away or give yourself some space and do it from a place of excitement, hopes, dreams, and allow that to fuel the goals."

"It's a decision and I think of it like a, a field of beautiful flowers and you wanna make a, a beautiful bouquet of flowers and you really, you can't pick one of each because that would, that wouldn't be a bouquet."

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• Set clear goals and break them down into smaller, achievable steps rather than overwhelming yourself with one massive goal. Singh visualised his New York life on a vision board in university, then broke down exactly what he needed to do to get there.
• Professional traders decide when to exit a trade before they enter it, establishing both target prices and stop loss levels to remove emotion from decision making and limit potential losses.
• Integrity is the foundation of success, do what you said you're going to do when you said you're going to do it. The gap between stated intentions and actual actions represents a lack of integrity that prevents goal achievement.
• Schedule your goals and tasks in a calendar to ensure they get done. Things that aren't scheduled will be replaced by other activities, while scheduled tasks have dedicated time for completion.
• Eliminate decision fatigue by outsourcing or systematising low value tasks like choosing what to wear, meal planning and household chores, preserving mental energy for important decisions.
• True success isn't just financial wealth but balance across health, wealth, love, and happiness. Many people focus exclusively on financial success while neglecting other crucial areas of life.
• Combat the learning loop trap where people continuously consume information without applying it. Knowledge without application is just information hoarding, applied knowledge is what creates results.
• Trading isn't as glamorous as portrayed in movies. It's mostly about analysing charts, numbers, and spreadsheets. The realistic goal isn't becoming a billionaire hedge fund manager but developing consistent profitable strategies.

BEST MOMENTS

"When you lose exactly what you plan for, there's no uncertainty, there's no fear. 'Cause you already accepted that risk before you got into it."

" I had the whole phase of buying a Ferrari and all of that and putting up pictures, and then you realise after you get a little bit older, what's the point of all of that?"

"Think about how much your life, our lives, all of our lives would be different if we did every single thing we said we're gonna do and we did it when we said we're gonna do it."

"I'd rather you read one book 10 times and apply it into your life than say you've read a hundred different books."

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• Define your goal clearly and establish a measurable metric for success. Many people focus on tactics (like writing a book) without connecting them to meaningful outcomes.
• Bestseller status is not a goal but a strategy, Michael has helped 132 books reach bestseller lists, but only 7 authors made more money from book sales than marketing costs.
• For books over 60,000 words, every additional 5,000 words results in losing 10% of potential readers. People buy shorter books they believe they can finish.
• Only 17% of American households buy at least one book per year, making book marketing strategy particularly important for reaching target audiences.
• There's a crucial difference between selling (convincing someone to take an action they hadn't planned) and conversion (helping someone take an action they already want to take).
• Your sole purpose should drive your goals.
• Build customer journeys that reflect what you would naturally do in intimate settings. Customers can sense when you're pursuing transactions versus relationships.

BEST MOMENTS

"Bestseller is not a goal. A bestseller is a strategy, and the tactics that float into that are what support that strategy. The strategy then has to tie back into the outcome, into the goal, into the measurement of success."

"The talents and skills and abilities that I've been given have not been given to me for me. They've been given to me for my service for you and everyone else."

"If the book is longer than 60,000 words, like once you hit 60,000 words, every 5,000 words, you'll lose 10% readership."

"The winners and losers in life are determined when the teams are picked. There are two teams that are essential for your success. The first are the team of people who select you to be on their team. The second are those you select to be on your team."

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• John describes himself as either fully committed or completely disengaged, which explains his approach to goals as ‘dangerous rabbit holes’ that consume his focus once he commits to them.
• After closing his business to care for his parents, John joined Toastmasters International for mental stimulation, becoming involved just before COVID forced everything online, positioning him perfectly to become a Zoom expert!
• When faced with hosting a Toastmasters conference online with no budget, John engineered a complex computer setup that transformed Zoom meetings into a TV-show experience, earning him the nickname "Lord Zoom" and attracting nearly 1,000 viewers globally.
• John believes effective online presentations should combine public speaking skills, marketing techniques, acting methods, and video production knowledge. Being reasonably good at all four areas beats being excellent at just one.
• Zoom's built in transcription, caption capabilities and companion AI can work together to capture meeting content and refine it, with the AI able to process transcript content into polished, concise material that preserves the speaker's intent.
• For ambitious goals, John recommends multiplying your target by 10-100x to make it ‘stupendously stupid’, even if you fall short, you'll achieve far more than with modest goals, while pairing this with more realistic short term milestones.
• Creating scarcity through limited availability (like offering only 500 spots for a program) generates FOMO (fear of missing out) and makes people more likely to commit, even when pursuing extremely ambitious targets.
• Rather than giving all content away free, John advises offering enough value to inspire interest, then creating interactive coaching programs where people work through processes together, as group coaching provides multiple perspectives and is more scalable than one-on-one sessions.

BEST MOMENTS

"I'm a very binary guy, I either sit there and don't say a word, or you can't shut me up.“

"I basically just told my customers, I'm terribly sorry, but I'm going to stop trading in a couple of months time because I've decided that I love my parents so much that I want to look after them in their final years... and I disappeared for ten years."

"If you're going to do it, you need to have an overriding ridiculous goal and whatever your overriding ridiculous goal is, you probably need to multiply it by 10 or 100 to turn it into absolutely stupendously stupid goal."

"If you think half a million is good, then why not a million? And you think a million is not good, why not aim for five million? Now if I fail miserably and I get five hundred thousand, it's still a brilliant goal."

"If people are gonna watch you, then you should take some effort to make it more interesting.”

Enjoy, and come back for the latest podcast each Wednesday. Thank you for listening.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• When setting goals, balance masculine and feminine energies by combining clear structure with intuition, be deliberate with goals but also listen to your inner wisdom about timing and direction.
• Entrepreneurship provides freedom to create opportunities that align with your passions but also requires different types of courage and creates new challenges not found in a corporate career.
• Leaders often struggle with having no one to share their challenges with; having a coach or support system is crucial as you can't always burden your team or family with business issues.
• Being intentional about what you want to achieve helps align your actions with your values. It’s important to understand not just the goal itself but why you want to achieve it.
• Doug recommends having one primary "big hairy audacious goal," but including smaller achievable goals you can easily achieve to maintain motivation and satisfaction with the goal-setting process.
• Always prioritise family time in your calendar first, nothing is so important that it should consistently override commitments to family, family time cannot be recovered once lost.
• Transformation takes time, approximately six months for individuals and up to 12 months for teams, but having a coach can help shortcut patterns of thinking and behaviours that limit progress.

BEST MOMENTS

"I knew something about coaching, but nothing about entrepreneurship."

"We're not brain surgeons, nothing we do is that important that we cannot have a date night."

"Trust yourself when you either go for one goal and to be open, flexible to change it and learn how to do it better or what needs to be done. Just go with the wisdom of life and living."

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• Tammy's burnout as a nurse left her emotionally disconnected from her baby daughter's milestones, revealing that even conventional success (becoming a millionaire) couldn't fill her inner emptiness.
• Face and body analysis examines how physical features reflect our emotional history. The left side of your face shows your private world, while the right side reveals what you present publicly.
• Most people blame failed goals on lack of motivation, but the real issue is misalignment between your authentic self and your conscious desires.
• Your body stores unprocessed emotions as physical markers. Asymmetrical facial features can reveal disconnections between your head and heart that silently sabotage goals.
• Energy exists in multiple forms; thoughts are electrical impulses, emotions are energy in motion and managing this energy creates a stronger foundation for achieving goals.
• Before setting goals, practice acceptance of where you currently are. Goals set from an unaligned state create a flawed foundation from the start.
• Feeling empty despite outward success is your "soul calling". A signal that deeper alignment is needed for everything to flow naturally.
• Many high achievers fix physical symptoms of burnout but neglect emotional and spiritual healing, creating an ongoing cycle of disconnection that undermines their goals.

BEST MOMENTS

"At that point, me and my husband became millionaires in real estate and I still was disconnected and unhappy." 

"A lot of people when they go move about to set intentions and goals for their lives and they don't hit it or they're not getting there fast enough and they blame it on lack of motivation, procrastination."

"If you're wanting to set goals over and above your set point, and create a deeper impact in the world, it's so important to go beyond that."

"If you feel like you've been on somewhat of a hamster wheel, or you feel like, why am I doing everything right and it's not working? Or you're getting everything done and there's a part of you that feels like there's something missing, but you can't put a finger on it. It's actually your soul calling."

"Choose your reaction to an event and choose a positive reaction to an event, and then you'll spiral up instead of spiralling down."

Enjoy, and come back for the latest podcast each Wednesday. Thank you for listening.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• Burnout often manifests as stepping out of important routines, falling behind on communications, and feeling disconnected from your organisation. These are all warning signs that executives frequently ignore.
• High performing executives resist showing vulnerability, which prevents them from seeking help; Dennis recommends watching Brené Brown's TED Talk on vulnerability as a starting point for leaders who need to break this pattern.
• Dennis's 12-week program works in three phases: understanding personal motivations, examining the relationship with work, and defining legacy, helping executives develop a North Star that guides decision making.
• Creating a legacy focused goal helps transform leadership from being self focused to purpose driven. Dennis aims to positively impact 100 people through each executive he works with, creating an exponential ripple effect.
• Self care practices like journaling and meditation can help executives process emotions and make better decisions by creating space between feelings and reactions.
• The fear of appearing vulnerable prevents many struggling executives from seeking help; acknowledging you're off your game and talking to someone you trust is the crucial first step toward recovery.
• Tracking daily feelings alongside self care activities using a simple scorecard helps identify which practices most effectively contribute to productivity and wellbeing.
• Practicing gratitude can give perspective during difficult times, remembering our finite time on earth and focusing on making a positive impact can transform how we approach challenges.

BEST MOMENTS

"What happens is when you start to get burnout, you start missing your goals... all the little fuses were starting to trip. Yet, I didn't notice them until the whole darn fuse box blew up."

"High performers and executives don't have an opportunity to really think about their legacy when they're in the grind day to day."

"The loss of the marriage was my fault because I was completely out of whack with my work life balance... I became very selfish in that and it cost me my marriage and my wife for years tried to bring me back to reality."

"I go by this thing called a rule of 100. For every executive that I work with, I want my work to have a positive impact on 100 people in their lives.”

"We only have a limited amount of time on this planet... be grateful for what you have, the people you have in your life. And the experiences you're having that are going to allow you to be the best version of yourself."

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• Goals need to match your inner purpose, not others' expectations. Del shifted from corporate style targets to personal objectives that truly motivated her, leading to sustainable business growth.
• Business success follows simple processes. Del reveals that it's our overthinking that complicates things, following clear steps and taking action creates results.
• Find mentors and peers who challenge you. Del emphasises joining groups where you're not the smartest person in the room but can still contribute meaningfully.
• Set revenue goals based on your lifestyle needs. Instead of chasing arbitrary numbers like "six figures," Del suggests focusing on what you actually need for your desired life.
• Regular planning creates momentum. Through weekly, monthly, and quarterly reviews, Del shows how consistent reflection keeps your business on track.
• Change your environment for better planning. Del discovered that stepping away from her desk leads to clearer thinking and more effective goal setting.
• Experience builds unshakeable confidence. After years in business, Del developed deep trust in her ability to overcome any challenge and rebuild if necessary.
• Measure impact beyond money. Del explains why tracking the lives you change often matters more than financial metrics for sustainable business growth.

BEST MOMENTS

"Everything's figureoutable and I think that is no bad thing and no bad kind of lesson to live your life by."

"Building the business is a series of processes that you take action on. It's a logical pathway, it's always the people and the thought processes that get in the way."

"If I was to sit, flip back to eight years ago when I felt really trapped in a corporate job and I didn't know where to go and how to do it and what I could create as a business, I'd have never pictured what I have now."

"You put one foot in front of the other and keep going."

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• Amanda discovered that starting each day with intentional quiet time and meditation, even just 10 minutes, transformed her ability to handle challenges and achieve her goals.
• Through her wellness journey, she learned to break down ambitious goals into manageable pieces, focusing on one achievement at a time rather than getting overwhelmed by the bigger picture.
• After experiencing significant personal loss, Amanda found that maintaining a strong faith practice became her anchor, providing stability and guidance through life's challenges.
• Drawing from her experience running a med spa, Amanda advocates for regular wellness practices like infrared sauna sessions, having seen firsthand how they reduce stress and enhance immune function.
• As a business owner, she discovered that implementing structured routines while maintaining flexibility actually created more opportunities for spontaneity and growth in both her personal and professional life.
• Through developing her wellness practice, Amanda learned to focus on her natural strengths and delegate tasks outside her expertise, leading to more efficient business operations and better client outcomes.
• After struggling with high cortisol levels herself, Amanda now helps others understand how simple 10 minute environment changes can significantly impact stress levels.
• Her journey taught her the value of patience in achieving goals, recognising that certain experiences, though challenging, serve as essential stepping stones to greater success.

BEST MOMENTS

"I notice not feeling so great was not helping to achieve those goals that I may have set in place, so I really started to tune in and just notice taking care of myself and my mind and spirit really allowed me to persevere."

"When I stay focused and I'm in my mindset, having a clear mind has really allowed me to propel just in my personal journey, as well as in my professional journey as well."

"The world is a little heated out there right now, and we can choose. We really have the opportunity to choose how do we want to feel, you know, regardless of what's going on around us."

"Finding what is my forte and what are my strengths that I can excel on and be successful in those areas, and then like you said, delegate or hire for the other things."

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• Goal setting requires both vision and actionable steps. Noam demonstrates this by using two separate books: one for annual planning and another for daily operations, creating a practical system for turning dreams into reality.
• Success demands resilience through multiple iterations. As evidenced by Noam's journey from infomercials to Shark Tank to blockchain, each "failure" became a stepping stone to greater innovation.
• The counterfeiting crisis extends beyond luxury goods affecting everything from medications to car parts, this trillion dollar industry threatens innovation, safety, and creative integrity worldwide.
• Blockchain technology can bridge physical and digital authentication - By combining security features like holograms and forensic markers with blockchain verification, products become impossible to counterfeit.
• Goal achievement requires regular review and adaptation, Noam and his wife's annual goal-setting ritual demonstrates how consistent evaluation helps maintain focus and adjust strategies.
• Everyone can be an entrepreneur and the only real limitations are external negativity and self-doubt; with persistence and belief, any goal becomes achievable.
• Innovation often emerges from personal challenges, Noam's experience with patent battles led to developing a revolutionary solution for protecting intellectual property.
• The future of authentication is decentralised, Komposite aims to expand blockchain nodes from 20,000 to over 3 million, democratising product verification.

BEST MOMENTS

"Dream it. The bigger the dream, the harder it is but if you can dream it, you can make it."

"I wanted to create a product that was uncopyable and where the original creator, entrepreneur could actually not be attacked to death by the copycats of the world."

"Do you know when it's too late? When you're dead. Okay, if you're alive, doesn't matter how old you are, doesn't matter what colour you are, what sex you are, it doesn't matter if you speak the language."

"And without a goal, you are aimless, right? You might as well eat biscuits and tea and watch TV all day."

"Every day is a new day. You look at your goals, and even if people say no, remember a no is just a maybe. And the next one could be a yes."

ABOUT THE GUEST

Website: https://komposite.org/

As a seasoned entrepreneur and Shark Tank winner, I co-founded Bambooee with my wife, introducing eco-friendly bamboo paper towels to the market. While the product thrived after our appearance on NBC's hit show, it unfortunately fell victim to copycat competitors. This experience underscored a critical lesson: patents alone are not enough to protect a brand's integrity. That's why I launched Komposite Blockchain, a cutting-edge platform designed to safeguard brands from counterfeiting and imitation. With our whitepaper complete, we are now focused on revolutionising brand protection worldwide.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• You cannot consistently perform in a manner inconsistent with how you see yourself - this fundamental principle transformed Bryan's career from a struggling salesman to a successful trainer.
• Goal setting requires evaluating both benefits and obstacles, if the obstacles outweigh the benefits, you need to find more benefits or reconsider the goal's viability.
• Personal growth must come before professional growth, investing in yourself and maintaining intentionality in daily goals is crucial for long term success.
• The intent behind your technique determines your ethics, and understanding this principle helps maintain professionalism and integrity in sales.
• Successful goal achievement requires involving and communicating with all stakeholders, especially family members who will be impacted by your pursuit.
• The POGO system (Person, Organisation/Occupation, Goals, Obstacles) provides a structured approach to building meaningful business relationships.
• Real selling is about relationships, not just digital interactions. Modern sales professionals need to balance traditional relationship building skills with new technology.
• Setting realistic deadlines is crucial, understanding your obstacles and required skills also helps establish achievable timelines for your goals.

BEST MOMENTS

"You cannot consistently perform in a manner that's inconsistent with the way you see yourself. You can't perform here if you continue to see yourself here."

"If you don't set goals, somebody will set them for you. Obstacles are what we see when we take our eyes off our goal."

"My job is to make salespeople more dangerous than they are right now but in a very integrity based way."

"I teach what I have to learn. I teach what I need to learn the most."

"You can have everything in life you want if you will just help enough other people get what they want."

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• Unresolved grief has three main causes: undelivered communication of significance, regrets about things being different/better, and unrealised hopes, dreams, and expectations
• Grief isn't restricted to bereavement, it can arise from any significant change in familiar patterns of behaviour, including career changes, relationships, and life transitions
• Common myths about grief like "be strong," "keep busy," and "time heals all wounds" can actually hinder the healing process and keep people stuck in their grief
• Grief is both cumulative and negative, it doesn't simply go away with time but needs to be actively processed and addressed
• Self-soothing behaviours like comfort eating, drinking, or gambling often mask unresolved grief and shouldn't be relied upon as coping mechanisms
• Building emotional resilience and establishing good self-care strategies are crucial for handling grief effectively
• While we can't change what has happened, we can choose how we respond to it and work to create something positive from our experiences
• Goal setting plays a vital role in grief recovery by helping create a clear vision and path forward while maintaining healthy boundaries

BEST MOMENTS

"It's like we carry a backpack and whenever we have difficult things we're not sure what to do with we kind of stuff them in there and then try and carry on."

"You don't have to have one big wound, you can die from a thousand paper cuts and if you don't have a way of processing those things and regaining your peace of mind, then those things will sit there and keep being added to."

"I want to be able to make a world of difference to those people that come into my path without expending lots of energy, worrying about all the people I can't help."

"You can't change what's happened, but you can choose how you respond."

"If you don't take care of yourself first, you actually end up with an empty cup and nothing to give."

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• The retirement journey isn't just about money, it's crucial to understand what will bring fulfilment and joy in retirement before figuring out the financial aspects.
• Only 10-15% of people have a proper drawdown plan for retirement, professional guidance in most cases is needed to create a sustainable retirement strategy.
• There are three distinct stages of retirement: the "go-go years" (high activity and spending), "slow-go years" (reduced activity), and "no-go years" (focused on medical and basic needs).
• The psychological shift from career to retirement is significant, people need to redefine their purpose and identity beyond their work life.
• Start retirement planning in your forties when your career and earnings are more defined, rather than waiting until your fifties when market dips become riskier.
• Consider the "opportunity cost" when making decisions. This means to evaluate whether actions are moving you toward or away from your retirement goals.
• Focus on covering base needs first to achieve the "happy factor" - ensuring peace of mind before planning for additional wants and wishes.
• Creating a work-optional lifestyle should be the goal, allowing flexibility to continue working on your own terms rather than necessity.

BEST MOMENTS

"Let's cover your base needs, your core expenses on a monthly basis. If you get that covered and get your nest egg generating that monthly need, that's your peace of mind, right? That's your happy factor."

"The money is just the money. The money in your house is just money. Your equity in your house is just money. And the money in your savings is just money. And the money in your retirement planning is just money."

"Set your goals and look at what the opportunity cost is of not setting that goal and trying to work toward it”.

"Life isn't linear... I've seen your life 10 years from now, 15 years from now, 20 years from now, because of all the people that have been looking after over the last 40 years"

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• Innovation and failure are intrinsically linked to success, if you're not failing, you're not innovating enough. Embrace failure as a necessary step toward achieving your goals.
• Core values must come before revenue. In healthcare, putting patients first even at a cost demonstrates true commitment to values and leads to long-term success through referrals and reputation.
• Goals should be layered and flexible, from micro weekly targets to macro long-term objectives, being able to adjust goals based on circumstances while maintaining vision is crucial.
• Simple financial management works best - for businesses up to 25 million in revenue, managing week-by-week cash flow can be more effective than complex financial statements.
• Nick's journey to lose 50 pounds was motivated by becoming a father and wanting to be there for his daughter.
• Setting early life goals for children is valuable. While remaining flexible, having a structured plan for your child's development can provide direction and purpose.
• Customer service and understanding client needs are paramount so spending more time with clients and truly understanding their needs leads to better business outcomes and referrals.

BEST MOMENTS

"I fail every day. I fail every month. I fail every quarter. I fail every year. And there are good years and there are bad years and there are great years and there are really bad years. And I just think that you got to be okay with failure and you've to be able to succeed."

"If you are running your business effectively on a cash basis, you're going to make money."

"I started looking for what I was going to do next... because the morality, the ethics and just how you treat people and building the teams and doing things for the right reasons is just part of the calculus for me."

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• Being specific with goals and writing them down is crucial, Maddy emphasises how having tangible, written goals helped her achieve everything from securing a book deal to finding her dream house.
• Authenticity in business is more valuable than portraying perfection and Maddy's success comes from being genuinely herself and sharing both victories and struggles openly.
• Conservative goal setting can be more effective than aiming too high, setting achievable targets helps maintain motivation and prevents rejection sensitivity, especially for those who are neurodivergent.
• TikTok success isn't just about viral content, reaching the right 200 people can be more valuable than reaching millions of the wrong ones.
• Traditional coaching methods don't work for everyone, many people need direct guidance rather than having answers drawn out of them.
• Being detailed about what you want when manifesting goals, helps align your actions with your objectives.
• Building a business around your values creates genuine connections. Start by focusing on attracting people with similar missions rather than trying to appeal to everyone.
• Celebrating small wins is essential for sustainable growth - Breaking down larger goals into smaller achievements helps maintain momentum and motivation.

BEST MOMENTS

"I'm what they call a multipotentialite, if you haven't heard that word, it basically just means that I do all of the stuff, I refuse to niche based on a subject area."

"I have made some severely good money from TikTok, from my actual content, from going viral but I actually realised about six months ago that it's not about going viral, it's about reaching the right people."

"If you are open and honest about your goals and your missions and what you want to achieve and you're realistic, there is absolutely no reason why you won't hit those goals."

"Shouting about your successes is not boasting. It is actually something which will gain you respect."

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• Procrastination stems from your brain's protective instincts, especially when setting goals that feel far from your current identity. Understanding this psychological aspect is crucial for overcoming self-imposed limitations.
• Mirror work is a powerful tool for building self-esteem and combating procrastination. This involves looking at yourself while speaking positive affirmations and addressing fears, it can help reprogram negative thought patterns.
• Annual self-reflection is vital for tracking progress, including measuring aspects like health markers, financial growth, emotional healing, and continuous learning achievements.
• Everyone has valuable experience to share, regardless of formal certifications. Your journey and knowledge can benefit others who want to reach where you are, even if it seems basic to you.
• Celebration of wins, both big and small, is so important for building momentum and reinforcing positive behaviours in the brain, leading to more successes.
• Labels and perfectionism can hinder progress, understanding that there's no such thing as perfect and removing good/bad labels helps maintain forward momentum.
• The three fundamental childhood needs - nurturing, protection, and guidance - significantly impact adult behaviour patterns, including procrastination and self-esteem issues.
• Personal investment in coaching and self-development can accelerate success, potentially turning three years of growth into six months of progress.

BEST MOMENTS

"I've had the privilege of working with some amazing business coaches and emotional coaches and energy healing coaches. I believe in coaching and I believe in personal development and I feel that as long as you're breathing, it's never ever too late."

"If you label this is a good thing or this is a bad thing, maybe you were raised that way. I know I was, everything was either good or bad. And so the truth is, we really don't know if it's good or bad until we get on the other side of it."

"When you invest in yourself, you're telling yourself, I believe in you. I see the value in you. You can do this. You will go far."

"You have to share what you know, because there's somebody out there that thinks you're a rockstar and they want what you have."

"The more you celebrate your wins, the more wins you have."

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• Darcy emphasises that marketing success relies on understanding three fundamental elements: identifying the right market, crafting the right message, and choosing the right media channels where your audience pays attention.
• Darcy advocates for implementing just one marketing system per month, allowing businesses to build 12 effective systems over a year without becoming overwhelmed.
• Through her decades of experience, she has observed that people respond more strongly to pain avoidance than pleasure seeking. This is a crucial insight she uses to shape marketing messages.
• Marketing success can be broken down into a four-step process: getting the message delivered, opened, read, and responded to - teaching that failure at any step means overall failure.
• Focus on principles rather than tactics; principles remain constant while tactics evolve with technology.
• Through her strategic consulting, Darcy helps businesses identify customers who have both the ability and willingness to buy, two distinct qualities she's found must exist together for success.
• Removing routine tasks frees up mental energy, allowing business owners to focus on growth and strategy rather than repetitive work.
• Based on her extensive marketing experience, Darcy reveals that providing clear instructions is crucial - she's found that removing assumptions can double business response rates.

BEST MOMENTS

"We as small business owners can't even spend a fraction of that to try and get in front of everybody. So we're so much better off figuring out exactly who we are for."

"You get to decide your business is your business. You get to decide every business does not have to be the same way."

"We overestimate how much we can get done in a short period of time and we underestimate how much we can get done in a longer period of time."

Enjoy, and come back for the latest podcast each Wednesday. Thank you for listening.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• Share your goals with people who matter and provide detailed explanations of how you'll achieve them. This creates accountability and support systems for when times get tough
• Success requires levelling up your circle, seek out businesses and people who are where you want to be to accelerate your growth
• Treat goals like milestones, breaking them down into smaller chunks while celebrating progress along the way
• True leadership is about making other people's lives better, regardless of your position or title
• Put distance between events and your responses; bad minutes don't have to become bad days
• People are always watching. Small actions and interactions can have profound impacts you may never know about
• Goals require different accountability approaches for different situations, what works for yourself may not work for others
• Confidence in goal setting is crucial - "Trying" to achieve something already provides an excuse for failure

BEST MOMENTS

"Having a daughter on the autism spectrum, she shows me what she's capable of. And I sit back and go, wow, if she can do that, what are we capable of?”.

"Experience isn't wisdom, experience is experience, experience matched with reflection. That becomes wisdom. That's where your lessons come from."

"You know, they say, show me your friends. I'll show you your future. If you hang around with five millionaires, you'll be the sixth. If you hang around with five alcoholics, you'll be the sixth."

"You think about the best teams in the world, what makes the best team? Trust. And what's the foundation for trust? Vulnerability."

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• Dan's early business failure, resulting in £109,000 of personal debt, became a foundational learning experience that shaped his approach to entrepreneurship and his ability to help others avoid similar mistakes.
• His life changing cycling accident and resulting brain injury transformed his perspective on business, leading him to shift from simply running companies to strategically buying, selling, and merging them for greater security.
• Rather than focusing on massive goals, Dan structures his approach around daily achievements in three core areas: health/wellbeing, business, and relationships, using apps to track his progress.
• As a big reader with a personal library of thousands of books, Dan maintains an unlimited book budget for his family, believing strongly that most solutions already exist in written form.
• Dan actively seeks out people with opposing viewpoints, following Charlie Munger's philosophy of understanding the opposite perspective better than its proponents before forming opinions.
• In his mastermind groups, Dan focuses first on identifying the six key areas of business and diagnosing where each member's weakest links are, believing the biggest gains come from addressing these weaknesses.
• Having tested multiple paths to success, Dan advocates for gathering diverse solutions rather than relying on a single approach, encouraging others to explore multiple routes to their goals.
• Through his years of business experience, Dan has discovered that the true value isn't in achieving goals but in the relationships built along the journey, creating lasting impact and fulfilment.

BEST MOMENTS

"If you've already had the answers, you would have done it already. I kind of go innovations come from looking outside of yourself."

"I refuse to let myself have an opinion on something unless I know more about my opponent's point of view than they do."

"I believe that prescription without proper diagnosis is malpractice."

"If you meet somebody that refuses to admit that is convinced that they're right constantly and isn't willing to hold up their hands and say when they're wrong, that should be a big red flag."

Enjoy, and come back for the latest podcast each Wednesday. Thank you for listening.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• Goal setting should include both personal and professional aspects of life, for example many entrepreneurs succeed in business but neglect personal goals, leading to an imbalance.
• Core values identification is crucial for relationship success as misaligned values between partners often contribute to relationship breakdown.
• Visual reminders of goals are really powerful, placing goals in multiple locations and using phone screensavers can help maintain focus and motivation.
• Recovery from divorce requires self-work first. Seeking others to "fix" you without healing yourself first often leads to continued pain.
• Small, manageable changes are more effective than overwhelming transformations so start with simple daily improvements rather than major life overhauls.
• Regular goal review and adjustment is essential,  reviewing goals quarterly allows for adaptation and ensures they remain relevant to your life.
• Teaching goal setting to children creates valuable life skills. Involving kids in goal setting helps them develop positive life habits early.
• Negative thought management is crucial for moving forward, learning to control and replace negative thoughts with positive ones enables progress.

BEST MOMENTS

"I always say to people that the goals that you have are not as important as the person that you become in pursuit of those goals."

"The book came about because I started to write about my divorce and the things that had happened and I wasn't writing for it to be published."

"We need to learn how to manage our negative thoughts, when you actually sit down and think about how many negative thoughts you have during a day it's quite a lot, even if you're just having a normal day."

"I say to people if you're not happy, move, we're not a tree, we're something different."

"The biggest journey of our life is our life, but we don't necessarily have a plan for it."

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• The 12-week year system accelerates progress by breaking annual goals into 13-week cycles, with the 13th week dedicated to review and planning, enabling better execution and more frequent achievement celebrations.
• Business owners often feel stuck due to cashflow dependency and emotional attachment; the solution lies in building trusted teams and creating alternative revenue streams.
• Understanding different personality types is crucial when implementing change. Effective goal setting must accommodate various working styles within a team.
• Leaders should focus on execution rather than strategy, a successful change requires five elements: vision, resources, plan, skills, and incentives.
• External factors like economic conditions shouldn't be the primary focus. Instead, try and concentrate on solving problems for customers and staying relevant to your target market.
• The "Valley of Despair" or "Messy Middle" is an inevitable part of goal achievement; conducting a pre-mortem can help anticipate and prepare for challenges.
• Balance your focus between practical business metrics and personal leadership development for sustainable success.

BEST MOMENTS

"A belief is something that you hold to be true, even though it may not be based on fact…so challenge those beliefs."

"What people think is well once you've started down the road of looking at selling a company you've kind of then got a sell it and that's not actually the case. What you've got to do is you've got to get yourself to a place where you can sell it if that's something that you want to do."

"I don't really see as a leader, how you can lead other people without, without first being a good self leader."

"Businesses exist to solve problems so if you are solving a problem and you're staying relevant to a group of people, a group of customers, and enough of them have the problem that you're trying to solve... then brilliant."

KEY TAKEAWAYS

·       After leaving her corporate law career in London, Gretchen discovered that running her own business led to working longer hours, not achieving the freedom she initially sought

·       A chance encounter with a client while working as a chalet manager in Verbier opened her eyes to the possibility of becoming a consultant lawyer

·       Starting with one short-term contract, Gretchen gradually built Lennon Legal into a team of 10 lawyers, proving you don't need a grand plan to build a successful business

·       Despite living in a famous ski resort, Gretchen found herself prioritising work over her personal life, highlighting how entrepreneurs can lose sight of why they chose independence

·       Her perspective on success evolved from wanting to build a large, financially successful law firm to creating a business that fits her desired lifestyle

·       Working with a business coach helped Gretchen recognise the importance of scheduling personal time first, as it won't happen naturally

·       Rather than staying paralysed by fear, Gretchen used Tim Ferriss's approach of thoroughly analysing worst case scenarios to take the leap into entrepreneurship

·       Through growing her business, Gretchen learned that delegation and building a team of specialists was more effective than trying to handle everything herself

BEST MOMENTS

"I really thought I was some sort of Ally McBeal meets suits and then I guess I kind of got to my late twenties and just sort of felt a little bit burnt out." 

"You can't have a work life balance that doesn't exist. You know, because you're either in work or you're in life, so you can't balance between the two and have it all" 

"As an entrepreneur, even when, in fact, I would almost go so far as to say, especially when things are a little bit quiet. That's when you have an even greater sense of guilt." 

"I quickly realised that this sort of concept of becoming completely destitute and, you know, running out of money and not having any clients and whatever actually really just sort of played out as, okay, I'll give it a go."

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• Gratitude is the magnetic force that attracts more blessings. Being genuinely thankful for what you have creates a high vibration energy that accelerates goal achievement.
• True discipline is self-love in action, choosing long term fulfilment over temporary pleasure builds character and creates freedom.
• Life's challenges are opportunities for growth. Embracing difficulties as necessary steps in personal evolution transforms obstacles into stepping stones
• External circumstances mirror internal realities, recurring problems in life reflect internal issues that need addressing.
• The manifestation process requires both action and surrender, combine focused effort with trust in life's natural flow.
• Self-talk shapes reality, your subconscious mind works to prove your beliefs true, whether positive or negative.

• Service to humanity creates purpose so combining personal gifts with helping others generates meaningful fulfilment.

BEST MOMENTS

"If we're not grateful for what we have, how can we expect to be given more in life? Whether you believe, you know, God to be the power or the universe, but even simply just the word life, we have to be grateful for what we have."

"Self discipline is self love. It's understanding that right now I'm going to put temporary pleasure aside for the bigger goal or bigger gain of my life."

"Life is life is a gift. It's such a privilege to be here and to look at life and to see a problem or to approach it negatively is only ever a disservice to us because it's an honour really to have this opportunity."

"When something keeps crumbling externally, it's because somewhere in us, we have that problem going on."

"Life has this ebb and flow it's like a yin and yang of give and take, effortless action, where when we give something in our work when we put energy into something intention into it, we do our part, but then we allow nature to take its course.”

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• Don't rush into buying multiple software subscriptions. First, you need to assess what functionality your existing systems offer, to avoid unnecessary costs and complexity.
• AI and automation shift the workforce rather than eliminate it. New technology creates new types of jobs while streamlining existing processes.
• Break down large automation goals into manageable chunks. Ensure you focus on the process that's taking most of your time first and then expand from there.
• Automation can save significant time in client onboarding so what takes hours manually can be reduced to zero whilst still maintaining consistency.
• The key to effective AI implementation is providing detailed, conversational input as generic questions yield generic answers.
• Different generations have varying preferences for communication, consider offering both automated and personal touch options.
• Personal videos can be integrated into automated sequences to maintain human connection while saving time.
• Understanding your client journey before implementing tech solutions ensures you choose the right tools and automation strategies.

BEST MOMENTS

"We map out exactly what you want to achieve with your business,  how you want clients and leads to experience your business and then when we understand that and we understand the end goal, we can sort out the technology to make that happen in the most automated and efficient way."

"Learn what you need so you understand, not say you're an expert."

"If you do something where it's much more conversational, more like how two humans, I know this sounds ridiculous, but how you would communicate with two humans is like, this is what I'm trying to do. This is the background. This is what I want to get out of it."

"We're not trying to lose the personal touch by using automation. We don't want it to sound like a robot."

"If we sit here and go, right, we're going to have this, 10 different client journeys within my business of all these different things I want to do. I want them all singing and dancing and all automating."

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• Lewis's accidental entry into trading led to a life-changing career!
• He became financially free through trading in just seven months, demonstrating the power of focused goal setting and skill acquisition.
• Financial stress is a major factor in family breakdowns, financial education is something that can help with this and what Lewis tries to empower others to do.

BEST MOMENTS

"I always say, very honestly, it was easier for me to leave my job in seven months to generate that income, but then I decided to continue obviously growing from there and then invest in property."

"We take the pressure off the goal and we put the pressure onto the process. Because sometimes what happens is we see how far away that goal is, and with it being so far away, we focus ourselves on the gap between those two things."

"Trust in God, but tie up your camel, it's such a true one. So I relate that to over the past 10 plus years or so in business, in life, I've trusted people. I've not tied up my camel."

"Hard decisions now make an easier tomorrow. Easy decisions now make a harder tomorrow. So if you want an easier, better, happier life, it's going to take some hard choices right now."

"I printed off an A4 piece of paper with as big text as possible saying I am now a trader. Obviously, I wasn't at that point. I was in the process of becoming one and I put it somewhere that I knew I was going to see every single day."

Then use goals, as you're measuring stops along the way because if you are trying to lose weight for the beach trip you're going on next summer, if you're trying to save up money for a trip, if you're trying to do all these things, that's not changing your identity"

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• Paul's concept of "Forensic Leadership" is based on the principle that every interaction leaves a trace, either positive (green) or negative (red).

"If you communicate effectively how the organisation is going to grow and develop and you communicate that intent, which is what I call it. Lots of people call it their why, their vision, their mission, their purpose. I call it intent."

"If you're going to set goals in order to succeed, plan for failure. So too many people are too optimistic. You've got to understand where, how, and if it's going to go wrong."

BEST MOMENTS

"A goal without a plan is a wish. So if you have a goal and you really want to achieve it, then you need to sit down and do the thinking time around what it's going to take to achieve it realistically, and then whatever time you think it's going to take, double it."

"I'm a great believer in something that I call incremental is exponential. If I can save someone five minutes, 12 times a day, that's an hour. If I can do that every day of the week for them, that's five hours a week, which is 25 hours a month."

"If there's one thing, which is look after your body. Then you know, your, your body and your teeth, you get one go. There is no reset. There is no three lives."

"Don't worry necessarily about the how. You can live as the person that has already achieved that goal energetically. What's my life going to look like? How am I going to feel about my life? What am I going to be doing day to day once I'm there?"

"You are the master of the design of your own life and you need to take responsibility for that."

"I would focus on building your personal brand, which encompasses all of the below, because if someone is working with you on the financial side of things, maybe, and I don't know how they maybe funnel through your services, but I may assume that they come to you and want to figure out when can they stop working."

"It's all about the money folks. And it's not a dirty word, right? Money is not a dirty word. It helps the world go around and selling is not a dirty word either."

"Your goals will happen. And then if I look back at my life of everything that I've written down and set an intention towards, they have happened, they've often taken longer than I thought they would."

"You set the intention, you set the actions, and then you just don't mess about with it. Just keep doing that same thing again and again and again for long enough. And you then get the compounding in your favour."

"I've been really lucky to hang around with very successful entrepreneurs, way past like 10 million a year. I don't know a single one of those who doesn't have this mindset."

"I guarantee you are spending crazy amounts of time on things that will not move you towards achieving what you want to achieve that could be outsourced to someone else for a much lower cost."

"When you set in these big, hairy, audacious goals, make sure that you're aware of the hidden metrics that are going to be impacted by it."

"I think when we set goals and we think about KPIs and we think about metrics and we think about numbers, if we're not aware of those hidden metrics, if we're not aware of the dormant fallacy, then we can quite easily become a cropper."

"Coaching is around helping humans and helping people find the power within, if you like, to reach their potential through holding great space, through challenging conversations and challenging questions."

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• Clio Books is an AI-powered SaaS platform that guides non-fiction authors through the book planning process, allowing them to speak their book rather than write it.
• Traditional book writing methods can be time-consuming and expensive, but Clio reduces the time by 93% and costs a tenth of traditional methods.
• Having a book establishes authority and thought leadership, opening doors to speaking engagements and industry recognition.
• Consistency in content creation, including books, blogs, and podcasts, is crucial for building a strong personal brand and sharing expertise.
• Clio doesn't replace the author's thinking or content; it streamlines the process and structure, making book creation more accessible.
• Effective book marketing strategies include creating a targeted hit list of ideal clients and strategic partners for personalised outreach.
• Trademarking key phrases or titles can add extra authority to an author's brand and make them more memorable.
• While immediate financial returns on books may not always be evident, the long-term benefits in terms of opportunities and brand building can be significant.

BEST MOMENTS

"Clio is an AI powered SaaS platform that leads non-fiction authors through the book planning process, provides the structure, gives you a talking plan, and then asks you questions, and your answers then become the book manuscript that Clio types up for you."

"Writing and books are synonymous, yes, but it’s not accurate that you have to become a writer in order to author a book."

"Books and authority go hands in hand and, and in fact, the word author comes from the original Latin word for authority." 

"I know my book sort of kept me up with the Million Dollar Roundtable, MDRT, and you know I've been invited to go on a committee about membership services and so that's happened and then somebody else is talking to me about the possibility of speaking at the conference next year, which would be amazing."

"Don't write your book, speak your book. Get onto the Clio site, follow Clio, loads, loads of exciting things to come."

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• River is a consultant and entrepreneur with 30 years of experience in startups, often hired to help launch new companies.
• She wrote a book called "Brain to Bank" and initially planned to create an online course based on it. River hired an AI specialist to help create her course, which led to the development of the Savantz platform. Savantz is an AI-powered platform that converts text into engaging, educational micro-videos.
• From her experience teaching at university level, River has a depth of understanding of modern learning challenges. Savant helps create content that people will actually watch and learn from, addressing short attention spans and modern learning preferences.
• Savantz can repurpose existing content like books, PowerPoint presentations, and blogs into valuable video courses and offers features like story generation to enhance educational content and improve retention.
• The platform aims to help content creators monetise their existing material more effectively than traditional book sales.
• River describes herself as more comfortable behind the camera as a producer, rather than in front of it.
• She's passionate about improving learning outcomes and adapting educational methods to suit modern learners.

BEST MOMENTS

"I realised I am not creating an online course for Brain to Bake. I am actually creating a platform that could help millions of people take the text that they already have... and turn them into micro modules, small videos that people would actually watch."

"We don't just create videos. We care that at the end of that, you've actually learned what you set out to learn."

"What if you could take that same information, and let's face it, every kid, no matter what age they are, up to 50, they have their phone in front of their face, and they're watching something on their phone. So let's meet them there."

"We are creating videos for education specifically. We are creating enhancement tools."

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• The FIRE technique (Feeling, Integrity, Relevance, Engaging) adds depth to traditional SMART goals, engaging emotions and aligning goals with personal values.
• Visualisation and multi-sensory engagement are powerful tools for goal achievement, as demonstrated by Rana’s family experience in manifesting their dream home.
• Accountability is crucial for goal success, with studies showing you’re 40 times more likely to achieve goals when held accountable.
• Authenticity is key to personal and professional success, fostering trust and creating a foundation for accountability and goal achievement.
• The “five-second rule” can effectively combat procrastination by preventing overthinking and tapping into desire rather than fear or logic.
• Intuition plays a vital role in goal-setting and decision-making, requiring the silencing of distractions to trust your gut instinct.
• Daily rituals like acknowledging progress, celebrating wins, and practicing gratitude in free-form writing can enhance goal attainment.
• The “wantaholic syndrome” often leads to short-term fixes; instead, focus on sustainable, remarkable shifts that align with your true self for long-term fulfilment.

 BEST MOMENTS

“Only 9 percent of people who even set their goals do end up carrying on. The good news is if they do, then the chances are they will succeed massively in life.”

“I put the SMART goals in the BIN. Because the reality is if you want to achieve remarkable goals, which actually everybody deserves to do, why are we just, you know, sticking for the average?”

“If you’re confident in who you are, that’s okay. And societal norms as well that we’re battling against very often. And I think that’s easing back quite a, quite a lot.”

“Everything we’ve been talking about is about how to tap into energetic states that allow you to move forward.”

“We’re human beings, not human doings. We don’t just do a relationship. We don’t just do a career. We just don’t just do health. Actually, you can have goals in everything.”

"I love people. I love teaching. I love sharing what I learned. It's always been in me."

"I decline people from my program that I don't want in the program. I do not want it. There's no amount of money on the face of the earth to be worth the headache of dealing with the wrong people."

"Instead, focus on the fact that that goal, I know, right? That goal drove you to make those changes and now you have tools."

KEY TAKEAWAYS 

• Automation removes regular tasks and sets clear expectations with prospects, nurturing them through the sales process without removing the human touch.
• Setting specific, measurable goals with a deadline helps break down the steps needed to achieve them and removes the pressure of daily targets.
• AI will fundamentally change many aspects of work, but it's an opportunity to utilise it to make life easier rather than a threat to jobs.
• Creating meaningful experiences and memories for loved ones, or "Mickey Boat moments," is a powerful motivator for achieving business success.
• Passion for what you do is essential for overcoming the challenges of running a business and staying motivated.
• Understanding that prospects have lives outside of your business and making it easy for them to engage with you is crucial for converting leads.
• Small, consistent improvements (the "1% task") can lead to significant changes over time, so focus on long-term progress rather than short-term gains.
• Don't bring people into your life who don't align with your core values, even if they offer financial benefits.

BEST MOMENTS

"I class [automation] as two different things. One is the removal of regular tasks... and secondly, it's the act of using good automation to set really clear expectations with prospects and not removing the human from the process."  

"My fundamental purpose is bringing those moments, more moments to myself, more moments to my loved ones, and more moments to the good people that I surround myself with. That's what drives me."  

"People massively underestimate what they can do in five years and massively overestimate what they can do in one."

"If you're setting a goal for the sake of setting a goal... if you don't have a passion for what is going to get you to that goal, then you'll never get there because there's so much about running a business that isn't easy."

"Too many business owners think, right, they're not getting back to me. They're not picking up the phone. They must not be interested. It's like, no, they just have a life. And they don't care about your phone call more than their life."

• Aligning your mindset and energy with your financial goals is crucial for business success, as it helps attract the right opportunities and people.
• Successful entrepreneurs often have a unique energetic way of being that sets them apart, allowing them to navigate challenges with ease.
• Raising your frequency to match your desired results and maintaining an "in-flow" state can lead to better business outcomes and a more fulfilling life.
• When setting goals, start with the most expanded version of the impact you want to have, then work backwards and break it down into milestones.
• Providing value to others through your business is a form of altruism, as it uplifts your team, customers, and community.

BEST MOMENTS

"If you can bring the excitement you just had to the gaps, that's the magic, right?"

"When you create a business, so long as you treat your people well. You are lifting all of the team around you. If you are providing some kind of a solution to customers, you are lifting them as well."

"The moping around that humans do is entirely of our own creation, it's of our own intellect."  

"There's people with amazing ideas and amazing concepts who just lack the how do you go from a job or a business that's not working for you into something that's profitable, where you're out there lit up, inspiring others, providing solutions.”
