    <description>​"Do you have a ‘Fire in the Belly’?"

What does ‘Fire In the Belly’ mean to you? What is your passion? What is your drive and purpose and where does that come from? Are you being your true self and lighting up the mightiest version of you?

These are some of the questions we seek to answer in this podcast. It is a great privilege to hear from some truly amazing people who are extremely successful in their lives whether it be money, business, achievements or overcoming adversity.

Our guests talk about how they have overcome, excelled, thrived and shown utter-determination to fulfil their potential (and become the mightiest person they can be). The personal journeys, insights and lessons that our guests share on this intimate podcast makes for remarkable listening.

We all have phenomenal potential, but not everyone is living their best and mightiest lives. For many, ‘Fire In the Belly’ is the invisible drive and knowing feeling that comes from deep inside. There is no right and no wrong as its personal.

Do you know, and live with 'Fire in The Belly'?  What are you doing to stoke the fire in your belly and be the mightiest version of your proud self? Listen now to the Fire In The Belly podcast and start your own journey of self-discovery.</description>

      <title>E335: Feed Your Tigers - Speaking With Stephen Rudolf</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/speaking-with-stephen-rudolf</link>
      <description>Join Pete as he speaks to entrepreneur, founder and director Stephen Rudolf.
 Stephen talks to Pete all about his journey to the realisation that he had much to learn as well as teach eventually leading to the development of his programme: Feed Your Tigers.
 ABOUT THE GUEST
 Steven Rudolph
 Founder-Director,
 Multiple Natures International
 steven@multiplenatures.com
 www.feedyourtigers.com, www.multiplenatures.com
 In 1989, while pursuing a career in music in New York, Steven Rudolph took up a part-time teaching job to make ends meet. In his first class, he had an epiphany: that he had an innate capacity to teach. Though he had no formal training, it was as if he already knew how to do it. The realization led him on a 21-year quest to India, where he uncovered 5,000-year-old secrets to self-understanding and achieving one's potential. He later found that the same discoveries made by the ancients about human nature were consistent with what modern neuroscientists had to say about how the brain functions. Steven has crafted those principles into an easy-to-use, enjoyable program--Feed Your Tigers. Steven lives in Cambodia where he serves as CEO of Multiple Natures International and explores how ancient Eastern wisdom can help people (and their tigers) become more aligned.
 ABOUT THE HOST 
 The ‘Mighty Pete Lonton’ from the ‘Mighty 247’ company is your main host of ‘Fire in The Belly’. 
 Pete is an entrepreneur, mentor, coach, property Investor, and father of three beautiful girls. Pete’s background is in project management and property, but his true passion is the ‘Fire in The Belly’ project itself. His mission is to help others find their potential and become the mightiest version of themselves. Pete openly talks about losing both of his parents, suffering periods of depression, business downturn and burn-out, and ultimately his years spent not stoking ‘Fire in the Belly’. In 2017, at 37 years of age that changed, and he is now on a journey of learning, growing, accepting, and inspiring others.
 Pete can connect with people and intuitively asks questions to reveal a person’s passion and discover how to live their mightiest life. The true power of ‘Fire in The Belly’ is the Q&amp;A’s - Questions and Actions section. 
 The ‘Fire in The Belly’ brand and the programme is rapidly expanding into podcasts, seminars, talks, business workshops, development courses, and rapid results mentoring.

      <title>E334: “You’ve Got to be Vulnerable and Let Your People Flourish” Speaking with Jeff Cohen</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/334-fitb</link>
      <description>Jeff Cohen is an entrepreneur, author, business coach, writer and speaker. Jeff works with CEOs and small and midsize businesses that are interested in growing into the new culture we are seeing post-pandemic.
  
 He talks to Pete about leadership, vulnerability and how we can all shift our mindset to create working environments where everyone feels valued and want to work.
  
  KEY TAKEAWAYS 
  
  Post-pandemic people are re-assessing their lives and deciding what they really want. This means businesses have to start adapting and changing to continue to recruit good candidates.
 Jeff’s life has been a contrast between great success and big failure. He has had to overcome a lot of knockbacks in his life.
 When Jeff first ran his own business, he felt he had to be the most important person in the business. He now knows this was a huge mistake and ensures his clients don’t make the same problem for themselves.
 Your children will model your behaviours, if you want them to spend time with you as teens and adults, invest your time with them when they are young.
 Jeff advocates allowing your employees to not be accountable but instead “Account-on-able”, eliminating the restrictive nature of being accountable and instead being empowered and passionate about the work they do.
 The number one thing is for people to have the confidence to say no. This confidence is filtered down to people from the leader.
 You need to aim to align your people with the things they do best, this allows them to feel both valuable and valued.
 As a leader, if you want to trust both ways, then you can’t just boss people around, you have to be vulnerable and show that vulnerability to your people too.
   
  
 BEST MOMENTS  
 “It’s ok for me to actually accept the love”
  
 “It’s a shift in the mindset, it’s a shift in the way you operate”
  
 “We hire people and we don’t know what their strengths are”

      <title>E333: “The Experience of Life is the Experience of Feelings” Speaking with Stacy McAlpine</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/333-fitb</link>
      <description>Stacy is the founder and CEO of journey fuel and a life transformationalist. She has been helping people transform their lives for over 20 years.
 She joins Pete to talk about how she is on a mission to share her knowledge with as many people as she can, how she developed her unique set of skills and why she has such a passion for personal development.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS 
  Fire in the belly to Stacy relates directly to fire in the soul and that we need fire in the soul to live our best life. Being able to feel like this life is about something you want to live and experience.
 It was a decade ago when Stacy was burning out, this is when she realised, she needed to change things in her life, she just needed to figure out how.
 There are often many more options available to us in life, to change things, it just requires open-mindedness and reflection.
 If you are struggling to make decisions or feeling overwhelmed, Stacy advises you to think about how you feel right now and how you want to feel instead. This allows you to start evaluating options to get closer to what you want.
 The more choices that we make in alignment with what matters to us, the more we attract what and who we want in our lives.
 People go through life with a lot of ‘shoulds’. If you can start to change your ‘should do’ to wants instead it will help you have the motivation to change things.
   BEST MOMENTS  
 “Life’s a journey, enjoy the ride, but how do you enjoy the ride if you don’t have any fuel in your heart, in your soul”
 “When you’re in that level of overwhelm, the idea of anything different, it can be paralysing” 
 “Life is a collection of feelings”
 “What resources do I have available to me that will help me learn something about myself?

      <itunes:subtitle/>
      <itunes:summary>Stacy is the founder and CEO of journey fuel and a life transformationalist. She has been helping people transform their lives for over 20 years.
 She joins Pete to talk about how she is on a mission to share her knowledge with as many people as she can, how she developed her unique set of skills and why she has such a passion for personal development.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS 
  Fire in the belly to Stacy relates directly to fire in the soul and that we need fire in the soul to live our best life. Being able to feel like this life is about something you want to live and experience.
 It was a decade ago when Stacy was burning out, this is when she realised, she needed to change things in her life, she just needed to figure out how.
 There are often many more options available to us in life, to change things, it just requires open-mindedness and reflection.
 If you are struggling to make decisions or feeling overwhelmed, Stacy advises you to think about how you feel right now and how you want to feel instead. This allows you to start evaluating options to get closer to what you want.
 The more choices that we make in alignment with what matters to us, the more we attract what and who we want in our lives.
 People go through life with a lot of ‘shoulds’. If you can start to change your ‘should do’ to wants instead it will help you have the motivation to change things.
   BEST MOMENTS  
 “Life’s a journey, enjoy the ride, but how do you enjoy the ride if you don’t have any fuel in your heart, in your soul”
 “When you’re in that level of overwhelm, the idea of anything different, it can be paralysing” 
 “Life is a collection of feelings”
 “What resources do I have available to me that will help me learn something about myself?

      <title>E332: “Life Doesn’t Happen to You, You Happen to Life” Speaking with Sandy Weston</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/sandy-weston</link>
      <description> 
 Sandy Weston is a keynote speaker, international podcaster, three times published author and entrepreneur. Sandy has owned and operated health and wellness companies for over 30 years, spent many years as mbc tens fitness expert and a successful media personality.
  
 Sandy joins Pete to discuss her philosophies on life, her personal achievements and how she discovered and learnt to live her best life every day.
  
  KEY TAKEAWAYS 
  
  Sandy’s fire in the belly, is when you tune into your higher power and inner voice.
 If you take the time to listen to yourself, what you will feel and hear is love, peace and joy. Sandy makes the time to do this every day so that she shows up as her best self in the world.
 Sandy stops herself becoming stuck in the difficult times in life by reminding herself throughout the day, what kind of life she wants to live and that she has control over her life.
 No one will take 5 minutes a day to do something they don’t believe but if you can change your focus and meditation for just 1-3 minutes it’s more likely to be successful.
  It’s not enough to just love what you do, you have to know how to run a business too. If you don’t you will not enjoy running it or find success easy.
   
 BEST MOMENTS  
 “Out pure essence is love, peace and joy”
 “It doesn’t have to be complicated, it’s little things over time, that you do to to train your mind”
  
 “Anytime I could be in front of people and spread joy it was just incredible"

      <title>E331: “I’m not here to tell you what to think, I’m here to urge you to think ” Speaking with Nicky Billou</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/331-fitb</link>
      <description>Nicky is known as the modern-day Napoleon Hill, he has interviewed top thought leaders of the world including the creators of chicken soup for the soul, John Maxwell, Oprah Winfrey’s coach and so many more. He is a millionaire maker, helping so many individuals turn their lives around.
 He joins Pete to talk about his journey into coaching, what he teaches and his own personal beliefs and values, particularly around personal freedoms.
  KEY TAKEAWAYS 
  Fire in the belly is your purpose, it’s you why, why you do what you do.
 Nicky says his fire has never gone out, there has been times where it has burnt bright as well as dimmed because of tough times and adversity, but it is always there.
 Nicky believes that fewer than 10% of people get to live their true purpose and this is down to how we are conditioned by society, including governments.
 There was a time when people sought the difficult, to achieve But, now we are in a world of convenience. But if we want to live a better life, a great life, then we need to force ourselves out of our comfort zones.
 There’s resistance in all of us and it rears its head whenever you have a big task ahead of yourself. You have to push past this. You have to fight resistance every day.
 Nicky is a 7-time author, he loves book writing and already has plans for his next three books.
 We live in a free market society, Ryan believes making money is a way to give you freedom, this is the reality of the world we live in.
   
 BEST MOMENTS  
 “Free enterprise is the most important freedom after freedom of expression”
 “People are being told to be sheep and not think for themselves”
 “Seek the difficult, seek the uncomfortable, seek what scares you because that’s going to make you better” 
 “You can only win if you recognise that it (resistance) is there and you continue on, you don’t let resistance win”

      <title>E329: Paul The Secrets to Building Wealth”  Speaking with Paul Halme</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/329-fitb</link>
      <description>Paul went from working as a stockbroker for a major firm to being a full-time entrepreneur. He now specialises in helping other entrepreneurs fix their finances and teaches them to buy assets to create passive income.
 Paul talks to Pete about how he got to where he is today, his businesses and why everyone should be trying to learn as much as they can about money and finance.
  
  KEY TAKEAWAYS 
  Fire in the belly to Paul is the thing that drives you, that helps you strive for the things you want in life.
 When Paul found jujitsu, he found out how to master his life. He found a way to feel and channel his competitiveness whilst humbling himself at the same time. It also taught him problem solving skills as well as how to strive to do better.
 Because Paul was never taught anything about money or finances, he now feels obligated to teach the people he meets as much as he can, so they can benefit from the knowledge he now has.
 The pandemic hit Paul and his businesses hard but luckily as he was based in Texas, the restrictions were lifted fairly early on so they were able to recover.
 Money just amplifies who you are. Money doesn’t make you a bad or a good person, it just amplifies who you already are!
 Have a long-term plan for your stocks and don’t get emotionally attached.
 Post-Pandemic, Paul has diversified his investments and also focuses on his fundamentals, his basics. This way he feels more protected whilst making his money work for him.

 When doing more riskier investments, Paul always keeps it in his head that he should only invest what he is willing to lose.
 There is a lot of misinformation about finance and investments out there, this is something Paul often has to battle with when trying to teach his clients what is the best plan for their money. 

  BEST MOMENTS  
 “I’ll never stop working, I’m wired that way”
 “When I got better at jujitsu I got better at life”
 “It’s such an important thing to have a strong financial understanding of the world and money”

      <title>E328: “Finding your Purpose” Speaking with Polymathic Intellectual Jim Marshall All About Septemics</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/jim-marshall</link>
      <description>Jim is an author and polymathic intellectual, he has successfully trained and treated clients over a 40-year career, his areas of expertise include psychology, physiology, science engineering math, law, septemics and more!
 He joins Pete to talk all about one of the newest social sciences, Septemics and his process in writing the book on the subject as well as his own personal journey.
 https://septemics.com
  
  KEY TAKEAWAYS 
  Septemics is a social science, focused around the hierarchies of human phenomena. By learning the levels and areas within the variety of scales, allows individuals and groups of people to understand, predict and manage human behaviour.
 Finding out someone’s motivation and belief is incredibly powerful information and Jim believes you can do this in a matter of minutes if you have learnt how.
 In the septemics book, Jim has included a glossary for every single chapter including the introduction, to make it as accessible as possible to everyone and eliminate any ambiguity.
 Although a lot of the information was pre-existing, Jim spent 20 years writing the 87,000 word book, to ensure it would be able to be interpreted in the right way by the reader.
 It can be hard for people who are rational to understand people who are self-sabotaging. But once you can understand that you can recognise it for what it is and see it at face-value. The Septemics book allows you to see what levels/scales people are on and recognise what you would previously believe to be random behaviour.
  It is a well known fact int he mental health community that sociopaths and psychopaths don not improve in therapy, this is because they are at the bottom of the 'scale' and 'level'. They are too far down to be helped.
    
 BEST MOMENTS  “Just finding out what level you, another person is by itself enlightening and beneficial”
 “When you find out someone’s motivation, that’s really powerful information”
 “The book is explicit in telling you how to study it, how to approach is, how to use it on yourself and on others”
 “A book is never really complete in the mind of an author”
  "People like that aren't really reaching out for help anyway"

The Septemics book allows you to see what levels/scales people are on and recognise what you would previously believe to be random behaviour.</li> <li> It is a well known fact int he mental health community that sociopaths and psychopaths don not improve in therapy, this is because they are at the bottom of the 'scale' and 'level'.

      <title>E327: “There’s Nobody Like you But You” Speaking with Claire Gallagher</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/claire-creati</link>
      <description>Claire is a digital strategy coach for solo-preneuers. She helps people market and sell their services online by connecting with their strengths and core values.
 She joins Pete today to talk about what she does for her clients, how she learnt everything she knows, her passions as well as her thoughts of the negativity online and its impact on digital strategy.
  KEY TAKEAWAYS 
  One of the cornerstones if what Claire does, is guide her clients into using empathy to gain an understanding of their customers perspective. She helps them translate their expertise into a language their audience will understand.
 Claire likes to get into the heads of other people to see the world from their perspective and their point of view.
 The delivery of an idea is just that, what matters the most is getting the concept right in the first place. To ensure that the message you are giving and sending out to your clients is right.
 Concept and meaning has always been Claire’s area of joy, right back to when she first started studying graphic design.
 You need to feel ownership of your business or brand, this is where Claire’s guidance comes in. To help you learn what will be effective for you and your brand/business.
 It’s not always necessary to be doing anything and everything. It can be much more effective to focus on fewer core activities, focusing on where your audience is.
 Bullies and unkind people have always existed but the internet has given many people an anonymous platform where they can do more damage and cause a lot of disruption.
 If you have an opinion about something as well as the confidence to be bold, this can be a way to gain more of a following on social media.
 There is no one else in the world like you apart from you. Spend time connecting with what you are trying to say and what is unique about you and use this in your social media strategy.
  BEST MOMENTS  “Digital strategy is making the best use of your resources to achieve a specific goal”
 “You need to always be stepping into your clients’ shoes” 
 “Trolls are someone opposing the person and what they are standing up and saying” 
 “It’s about connecting with the person you’re trying to reach that you know you can help, that needs to hear this and serving them”
 “The best person you can help is the person you were 3 or 4 years ago”

      <title>E326: “Healing My Relationship with Myself to Heal My Relationship with Food” speaking with Briana McAteer</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/326-fitb</link>
      <description>Briana is a coach, nutritionist and speaker. After years of struggling with her own self-esteem, Briana wanted to help other women with emotional and binge eating issues.
  
 She talks to Pete today about her own journey to healing, how she managed to overcome her own trauma and difficulties and how her life purpose is to help others.
  
  KEY TAKEAWAYS 
  
  Fire in the belly to Briana, is the thing that gets you up in the morning, the thing you feel compelled to do.
 Briana becomes the coach her clients need first, she then works with them to meet their goals and needs.
 For years, Briana struggled with her relationship with food and her body image. Like many women she had insecurities and was either battling with restrictive eating or binge eating.
 If you have created the habit to use food to solve our emotions, you can become confused with what feels like ‘cravings’ but is actually disordered eating.
 You need to develop self-worth that isn’t tied to food, how you eat or your body. You then need to learn how to deal with your emotions without food.
 It was after losing a lot of weight, something Briana believed would bring her peace and happiness, that she realised that weight had nothing to do with how she felt about herself. It was time to try something different.
 Socially women have been conditioned by diet culture, which makes their relationships with food frequently difficult and complicated.
 Trauma doesn’t have to be ‘big’. Often smaller situations and trauma create these unhealthy eating habits, because we have learnt to deal with our emotions via food.
 Journaling is one of the tools Briana used to change her mindset and thinking around food.
 Personal development and self-improvement was always something Briana had been interested in, it was when she got her own coach that she really started to understand the power of working with someone else on your development.
   
 BEST MOMENTS  
 “It’s almost your duty to help them be who they need to be, it’s a much bigger purpose than you”
  
 “Healing my relationship with food required healing my relationship with myself”
  
 “Women are incredibly good at being astonishingly hard on themselves”
  
 “I didn’t have much of a career to draw upon, it was just my own experience”

      <title>E325: “Action Brings Clarity“ Speaking with Ryan Horn</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/325-fitb</link>
      <description>Ryan went from being a broke and homeless to becoming an award winning entrepreneur,  peak performance coach, public speaker and podcast host!
 He joins Pete in this episode to talk all about his journey from the bottom to the top, his personal philosophies, what he teaches others and more.
  
  KEY TAKEAWAYS 
  Fire in the Belly to Ryan means being committed to something and having a real purpose. It’s a feeling where you don’t allow barriers to stop you, that you are focused on your goals and moving forward.
 Focusing on the impact you and your business matters. Money is great of course but for Ryan, the impact he has on others and the world and the legacy he is leaving behind matters most.
 Faith, family, wisdom and generosity and Ryan’s main values. They are what are important to him and interestingly are mostly related to ‘service’.
 It’s easy to get caught in the trap that more money or more status will make you happy. But this isn’t the case, be happy wherever you are now and ensure you are fulfilled.
 One of the things Ryan teaches his coaching clients is the power of their own mindset. You can choose to be happy you just need to learn how to do it.
 There’s a difference between goals and a vision. Both are important but goals are 12 months or less and are strategic, vision is generally 3+ months away and inspirational.
 A series of powerful decisions allowed Ryan to pick himself up after hitting his lowest. Two of the biggest decisions he attributes to getting him to where is now is hiring a coach and attending a mastermind with two of his mentors.
   
  
 BEST MOMENTS  “I definitely believe I am where I am supposed to be right now”“Learning from the other people is like the ultimate shortcut”“Success without fulfilment is the ultimate failure”“You can choose to be happy wherever you are in life right now”“I’d never been around someone really successful, I was trying to do things on my own”

      <title>E324: “You Have to Heal Yourself Within to Free Yourself” – Speaking with Patricia Breslin</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/324-fitb</link>
      <description>Patricia is a mother, grandmother and has been a hairdresser for over 40 years. She has always known there was something in her desperate to get out but couldn’t place what it was. It was after two abusive marriages and focusing on personal development and self-discovery that Patricia realised her passion and purpose in life was to help others.
  
 She joins Pete in this episode to talk all about her life, including the difficulties she has faced and what led her to leading the life she always desired.
  
  KEY TAKEAWAYS 
  
  Patricia has struggled with self-esteem and confidence her whole life it was this and bullying she suffered that caused her to have an eating disorder.
 When she met her husband, Patricia thought she had found love but it turned into an abusive marriage. After finding the strength to leave with 4 of her 5 children, Patricia went into a women’s refuge.
 After leaving her husband, Patricia used drink to cope, something she had also done in her teenage years.
 Patricia got married for a second time, she had a sixth child but devastatingly this marriage was also abusive.
 The life Patricia was living, with failed marriages, abuse and alcohol dependence was something she desperately wanted to leave behind but she didn’t know how.
 4 ½ years ago she managed to stop drinking and her life has turned around. She joined AA and began working on herself.
 2 years ago Patricia did a course in RTT, a type of hypnotherapy which started her fascination with the mind and how our brains work as human beings.
 Helping people, particularly women, from toxic life and situations into success, is what gives Patricia fire in her belly.
 Patricia bears no grudges or bad feelings towards past events, including her ex-husbands. She understands that life happens and she can’t take back her past, she can only move forward.
 When people self-sabotage it’s not intentional, it’s often a coping mechanism where the individual doesn’t feel good enough.
 You have to be your true authentic self in order to learn to love yourself.
   
  
 BEST MOMENTS  
 “I just wanted someone to love me and to look after me”
  
 “I knew for years I didn’t want this life but I didn’t know how to get out of it”
  
 “I’ve always been on a journey of personal development”

      <title>E323: Everything Good in Life Comes From The Help of Other People -With Devin Durrant</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/everything-good-in-life-comes-from-the-help-of-oth</link>
      <description>Devin Durrant – retired NBA player, current entrepreneur, author, family man. Devin comes on the show to discuss his recently published book, The Values Delta, which is about how we can make our values count to make more of a positive benefit in the world. We talk about how his childhood and family shaped his focus and made him hone his value system early on, and how he has been able to leverage his “spiritual values” to make the world a better place for others. I hope you enjoy our conversation as much as I did. 
 KEY TAKEAWAYS + You can not only work on your values, but see them improve, and thus improve your life and sense of fulfillment, by a scientific, experiential approach. 
  Often your achievements can be opportunities to thank other people for the ways they helped you realize your goal. Everything good in life comes from the help we receive from others. 
 Hard work, team work, and discipline – things that Devin learned playing sports in his neighborhood growing up, are ways to improve your life everywhere. 
 Cultivate relationships with people you like and whose values you share and watch your life blossom in a myriad of unexpected beautiful ways. 
   
 BEST MOMENTS  
  “I've been very fortunate to be a mentor to younger people, in different settings. The flip side of that is, I have had just some remarkable mentors in my life that have helped me at different stages of life, given me direction and, and inspired me through their examples.”
 “What do I need to prioritize so I might be able to do a little bit better as an individual, as a husband, a father, a business owner?” 
 “The constant for me is ‘how can I improve?’ How can I improve as an athlete, how can I improve as my parents’ son?…that's been a key element for me. What I've learned over time and as an adult, is:  we tend to become what we think about. So I'm a big believer in trying to focus on thoughts [that will take us] in  positive directions.”
 “There's always a little bit more that you can offer. There's always some progress that needs to be made and there's always maybe something we need to repent, change and try to do a little bit better.

Devin comes on the show to discuss his recently published book, The Values Delta, which is about how we can make our values count to make more of a positive benefit in the world.

I hope you enjoy our conversation as much as I did. 
 KEY TAKEAWAYS + You can not only work on your values, but see them improve, and thus improve your life and sense of fulfillment, by a scientific, experiential approach. 
  Often your achievements can be opportunities to thank other people for the ways they helped you realize your goal. Everything good in life comes from the help we receive from others. 
 Hard work, team work, and discipline – things that Devin learned playing sports in his neighborhood growing up, are ways to improve your life everywhere. 
 Cultivate relationships with people you like and whose values you share and watch your life blossom in a myriad of unexpected beautiful ways. 
   
 BEST MOMENTS  
  “I've been very fortunate to be a mentor to younger people, in different settings. The flip side of that is, I have had just some remarkable mentors in my life that have helped me at different stages of life, given me direction and, and inspired me through their examples.”
 “What do I need to prioritize so I might be able to do a little bit better as an individual, as a husband, a father, a business owner?” 
 “The constant for me is ‘how can I improve?’ How can I improve as an athlete, how can I improve as my parents’ son?…that's been a key element for me. What I've learned over time and as an adult, is:  we tend to become what we think about. So I'm a big believer in trying to focus on thoughts [that will take us] in  positive directions.”
 “There's always a little bit more that you can offer. There's always some progress that needs to be made and there's always maybe something we need to repent, change and try to do a little bit better. And so that'll be my constant striving is yeah, I'm in a good place. But maybe to make my place better, I can help other people find that good place in their lives.”

      <title>E322: A Fire Refining With Bronson Hill</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/a-fire-refining-with-bronson-hill</link>
      <description>First off, Bronson Hill is a successful, multi-family apartment investor, who left a $200K job in order to go into real estate, and now coaches other investors on how to reach that same level of success. But more than that, Bronson is a deeply spiritual person, whose faith informs everything he does. He knew early on that he was not willing to trade his time for his career, so he makes his money work for him. He has also traveled to over 30 countries, run obstacle courses, and, perhaps most importantly, become a present and engaged dad to his daughter, Ellie. He has very unique, vulnerable perspectives on how we can make our pain our purpose, find success and soul while following our path, and I know you will get a lot out of our conversation. Please join us.  
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  Have good people around you so that when you go through challenging times, they can remind you of the “purpose beyond the pain”. 
 Sometimes when you go through big seasons of change, you “lose” friends, or add others, and that is natural. 
 Pay attention to the signs the world is giving you and you will know whether or not you are traveling the right path. 
 Consistently check in with your soul to make sure your goals and purpose align with your ethics so that you don’t lose your soul/who you are to the world. 
   
 BEST MOMENTS  
  I look at life as being an opportunity to walk in relationship with God. And so I pray, I ask, ‘Hey, what do you want me to do?’ I believe in this sense of divine purpose.”
 “Be sure you turn around and  look at the progress that you have made. That will inspire you to take more steps and continue to be in motion, continue to take action.”
 [on affirmations] “I've watched as I've started saying those [affirmations], I've started to internalize, not only that the  external things have changed –  the net worth has changed, the growth, the job and all this stuff, that's great – but the most important thing is I really like who I am, I love what I bring to a room, I love what I bring to people.” 
 “It sounds really morbid, but it's almost like…the level of success you want to have, or the level of achievement, or purpose, the ‘where do I want to go’...It's almost like the suffering has to equal that. I wish it weren't that way. But in a way, suffering has this way of [being like] a fire refining.”
   
  ABOUT THE GUEST 
 Bronson has never wanted to trade his time for money. A family member suggested he become a multi-family apartment holder. After meeting with a syndicator (someone who raises money to buy apartments) and raising a little capital of his own, Bronson was able to make that initial investment. 
 He has never lost sight of the goal to help others, and he wants to help others achieve their goals and experience true financial freedom. 
 Besides the passion for his career, Bronson is a fitness enthusiast who has done a lot of international traveling, and regularly performs music around Pasadena, where he lives. The light of his life is his daughter, Ellie.

      <title>E321: The Juice is The Change With Jon Weberg</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/the-juice-is-the-change-with-jon-weberg</link>
      <description>I can’t say for sure but I think Jon Weberg may be the youngest guest we’ve ever had on this show. He’s already self-published a book, spoken to entrepreneurs at conferences across the U.S., and founded successful start-ups. Our conversation today is about focus, intention, making sure your actions match up to your intentions. You can be financially successful while being of service. It was my great pleasure speaking with Jon and, if you don’t know him yet, my great pleasure to introduce him to you. KEY TAKEAWAYS + anything he creates, whether it be video, or written content, he always checks with himself first to see if it would help anyone. 
  Finding yourself is key to being happy because you save energy by not having to pretend anything, by being completely authentic. It’s not draining to chase dreams that you really want. 
 Be somewhat of a scientist about your life: take notes on your goals and progress towards them, try to observe the effects of your decision-making in your everyday life. 
 Being fulfilled in life is making progress. 
   
 BEST MOMENTS 
  “In my business, and in anything I have almost ever achieved that’s important in my life, I have written it down at some point.”
 “I want to give and help and work with as many people as humanly possible because to me, there's nothing better in this world than making people smile, [making them] happy.
 “How can I think about this to make things better than they were, and move things forward?”
 “This ties directly back into the ethics of what is good, because if you're always valuing things that are good and valuable, you should most of the time do things that represent the valuable.”
  
 ABOUT THE GUEST 
 Unbeknownst to him, Jon had started on his path to being a multimillionaire entrepreneur and author by the age of 10, when he began doing online marketing, following in his father’s footsteps. Staying in a Duluth, Minnesota hotel when he was 14, he jotted down a few ideas for what would become Marketing Mastery Elite. 
 By the age of 20 he had written his first book, and was traveling across the U.S. speaking to aspiring entrepreneurs on how they could increase their own profits and ROI.

 ABOUT THE HOST 
 The ‘Mighty Pete Lonton’ from the ‘Mighty 247’ company is your main host of ‘Fire in The Belly’. 
 Pete is an entrepreneur, mentor, coach, property Investor, and father of three beautiful girls. Pete’s background is in project management and property, but his true passion is the ‘Fire in The Belly’ project itself. His mission is to help others find their potential and become the mightiest version of themselves. Pete openly talks about losing both of his parents, suffering periods of depression, business downturn and burn-out, and ultimately his years spent not stoking ‘Fire in the Belly’. In 2017, at 37 years of age that changed, and he is now on a journey of learning, growing, accepting, and inspiring others.
 Pete can connect with people and intuitively asks questions to reveal a person’s passion and discover how to live their mightiest life. The true power of ‘Fire in The Belly’ is the Q&amp;A’s - Questions and Actions section. 
 The ‘Fire in The Belly’ brand and the programme is rapidly expanding into podcasts, seminars, talks, business workshops, development courses, and rapid results mentoring.

      <title>E320: What would Happen if The Fear Wasn’t There? With Claire Aughmuty</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/what-would-happen-if-the-fear-wasn-t-there-with-cl</link>
      <description>Claire Aughmuty is a force of nature. After a career as a nurse and a wife and mother, a broken ankle sustained during COVID helped turn her life around. It was during her convalescence, when she was forced to ask people for help to do things that she’d always taken for granted, that she started feeling reconnected to others – a part of a community. That experience helped her make the decision to start a second career as a divorce and break-up coach, to help others through an emotional and often confusing time that she went through. I just know you’ll enjoy our conversations. KEY TAKEAWAYS 
  If you want to change your life, why can’t you? Life is too short to feel boxed in by decisions you’ve outgrown. 
 When we trust ourselves to make a good decision, it doesn’t matter what other people think. 
 I can afford compassion for lots of people, but why not myself? 
 You can change as a person if you let your defenses down. 
  
 BEST MOMENTS  
  “I had to leave my marriage to understand that I had no idea how to look after myself. No idea. So when I heard self care, I was like, ‘Well, I had a bath, that's fine.’ But I didn't understand self care at all.”
 “I understood ‘selfishness' to be making decisions that were about me. And that [was] a negative thing. You're very selfish for whatever it happens to be. And when you think like that, and other people say something like that, it's almost like it's glued with superglue to the word guilt. Guilt is not good. It's not a good emotion.”
 “But nearly every day, a different friend called in to help me with stuff. I remember probably about two months into my broken ankle, suddenly thinking, ‘I feel connected to my world for the first time in a way that I never did before.’ Because I couldn't do anything for myself; I couldn’t be independent. I needed other people to help; I had to ask and I had to receive. It’s very easy to give, but it’s a very different ballgame when you're on the receiving end and you need to ask. But [once] I learned how to do that my defenses came down.”
 “I look at the decisions I've made. And I think the decisions I've made have changed my legacy completely. My children's lives – they will work life differently. As I learn and grow, I teach them and show them. Who knows where they'll go in their future, where their  children will go in the future?”
   
 ABOUT THE GUEST  
 Claire moved to Galway when she was eight and spent her childhood there, but also attended boarding school in Dublin. After attending nursing school, she was a nurse for a while, and then married, had a family, and has been living in the North Node for around 26 years. After a divorce, she reinvented herself as a coach to help others through their own break-ups on their journeys of re-discovery.

      <title>E319: Curious, Adventurous, Indefatigable With Jake Schmidt</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/curious-adventurous-indefatigable-with-jake-schmid</link>
      <description>Jake Schmidt is passionate about marketing and business strategy, and prides himself on having been on the ground level of many products that have changed our culture. We have a fascinating conversation about business, passion, and when it’s time to go onto the next adventure. KEY TAKEAWAYS 
  Items with a mesmerizing quality do much better in ads, so that they “hypnotize” the viewer.
 Learn how to let go of things that have seen their day and move on, to apply the lessons to the next challenge.
 Being curious about things will bring you great rewards in the future. 
 It’s okay to not have been the first person on the scene, because the first person conducted free research and development for you. 
  
 BEST MOMENTS  
  “I tried to just kind of flood the market with my videos and my concepts or my brand, physically. And by doing that, we were able to build the biggest brand. I think at our peak on Instagram, we had close to 150 or 200,000 followers.”
 “We're able to help so many people, which is just the coolest thing, seeing someone that's doing say $50-$60,000 a month, and they…have the right product, but they just don't know how to get to the next level. Taking them on this journey with us and setting up their proper email marketing strategy, SMS strategy, paid social strategy, and then letting them get to $500,000, $600,000, $700,000 a month in revenue, which we've done a few times.”
 “If you're not growing, you are dying. I think that is absolutely true. And there's been times in my life where I have felt like I'm not growing, and it's just a terrible feeling. Because I know that I'm gonna regret it. I know that life is short, and I want to be able to maximize and fulfill my potential.”
 “I'm looking actually at the ‘unit economics’ of your brand to make sure that it has what it takes to be scalable, and has what it takes to be this next big thing and if they don't have that then it's like ‘hey, you have some things that you need to fix here first before we can actually pour the gasoline on the fire’.”
   
 ABOUT THE GUEST  
 Jake has been an entrepreneur basically since the time he could speak. As a kid he loved playing video games and surfing the internet, which showed him early on the benefits of technology as a marketing tool. His greatest business accomplishment so far has been to figure out how to market the fidget spinner to a wider audience. He splits his time between NYC and LA.

      <title>E318: Survival to Revival - Lewis Herridge Interview</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/survival-to-revival-lewis-herridge-interview</link>
      <description>Lewis Herridge is an ultra-marathoner, an outdoor enthusiast, someone passionate about rewilding himself and helping others to do the same. We have a fun, inspiring conversation about how we, as a society, can get back to a more natural way of living. Lewis sees a lot of correlation between the current mental health crises the world over and the way we eat and live essentially sedentary lifestyles. Through finding and following his joy, he wants to support and help others find theirs through outdoor exploration and adventures. 
  
 KEY TAKEAWAYS 
  Chase your joy, even if it doesn’t make sense to anyone else. Follow the little voice in your head {if you are feeling depressed and unhappy, that is a cue to change something about your circumstances}
 Our bodies can achieve a lot more than we ever dreamed, we just have to push ourselves a bit more than we are used to. 
 We are living in an unnatural world (9-5, inside, sedentary lifestyles, etc). Through nutrition and lifestyle changes, and movement coaching, we can get back to a more “natural” way of living that will make us much happier people. 
 The training for something gets to be more of a reward than the thing itself. If you’re not enjoying the journey, you can change direction. 
   
 BEST MOMENTS  
  “I think my belief is that as soon as we started introducing agriculture…then we started attaching ourselves to that way of life, but we've always sort of got on fairly well and being quite connected to that [nomadic], natural sort of way of life. But things have accelerated with detaching ourselves even further in the last few decades.”
 “If you get the mind right, then the body follows on.”
 “That's what's needed on a big, global conscious level, you know, like: ‘stop, slow down, go into yourself, consider your own life.’’ And for some it might materialize as a bit of depression, or anxiety, or whatever at first. But don't run away from that. Because that's the opportunity to go within, isn't it, to go inside yourself and work through that.”
 “[I want to] help people revive body and mind for themselves. That is my purpose – how I do that is through connecting with nature, through[helping others to] reconnect with their own wild natures, and basically tuning into who they are.”
   
 ABOUT THE GUEST  
 Lewis had over 10 years as an outdoor adventure guide when his circumstances changed and he began working a “desk job” for a little while. He realized very quickly that the indoor, office environment wasn’t for him – he began feeling really depressed, wasn’t happy with his body, and felt isolated and disconnected. He began to “rewild” himself by making time in the outdoors part of his routine once again, and a former alter ego, “The Outdoor Bloke” was reborn. Lewis has since started fitness and motivational coaching again, and rejuvenates his spirit whenever he needs by spending time outside. He lives outside Manchester with his wife and young daughter.

      <title>E317: Working With Essence - Carol Sanford Interview</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/working-with-essence-carol-sanford-interview</link>
      <description>Carol has a precious way of looking at life. After a decades’ long career helping businesses continue to innovate in the long-term, Carol has found an approach to her work that integrates her Mohawk First Nations heritage and “logical” business economics. She has been called a “positive contrarian” by peers and her students for how she tries to embed traditional, holistic teachings in modern-day theory. We have a wonderful conversation about how to exercise our own capabilities to find out what we are made of, how we can trade passion for more sustainable caring, and how to make the most out of every day by waking up with the aim of staying humble and to learn something new. 
  
 KEY TAKEAWAYS 
  Don’t trust someone immediately if they call themselves an expert without testing it through your own life experience first. Someone self-identifying as an expert might mean they’ve studied a fragment of something for a number of hours but they also have a bit of an ego about what they’ve learned. 
 Go into each day open and willing to learn. You can't think that what you know right now is it, you have to be prepared for cracking open your own worldview.
 Work hard at figuring out a way of improving your own capability to test out ideas in the world and in real life, so you can find out what works for you. 
 We are all connected. We have individual roles to play within our families, within our local communities, and we are affecting change within those structures that slowly ripple outwards. 
   
 BEST MOMENTS  
  “Well, ego is a very useful instrument if my essence is in charge of it. So, ego in some traditions, and this is one that I question, is we have to kill ego. Well, that didn't quite make sense because ego for me has a couple of different directions:it can go toward arrogance and hubris, [the whole] “I'm the best thing since sliced bread”, or it can go toward courage, helping myself overcome that which I could be reactive to. Ego to me is an instrument of direction setting; it’s an instrument that we use to manage the parts of ourselves that are not useful.”
 “I remember one morning when I woke up and remembered a message from my grandfather about ‘what do you need to be humble about today? What do you need to be humble about? ‘So I started using that to ask [myself daily] what my aim should be.”
 I am often asked about what I am passionate about and have fire about. I always say, those are the things that get people in trouble, because we end up on a roller coaster, and things are great, and then things are low. What I really pursue is caring. I made it in a way of growing people. And I find that if I pay more attention to that than passion or fire, that I'm [going to have a more]  stable energy.”
 “I had a grandfather who was part Mohawk, which is an Indigenous tribe here in the U.S., part of the Iroquois nation. And he was the one that taught me that idea. He said the calmness, the quiet allows you to see more and manage yourself in uncertainty and changing times. The way you want to do it is not to be subjected to whatever is out there pulling you or scaring you. And I have to tell you, it took a very long time to grow that in me.”

      <title>E316: Let Your Soul Be the Expression - Interview With D. Neil Elliott</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/let-your-soul-be-the-expression-interview-with-d-n</link>
      <description>Neil and I talk a lot today about spirituality, power and purpose. How we are beings composed of unconditional love and divinity, and how we can spend our whole lives trying to remember that one unassailable fact. After a career in project engineering management, Neil put the decades he’d spent reading about and studying spirituality into a book of his own, called A Higher Road, which aims to break down how to achieve a soul integration in seven easy-to-follow steps. Please join us for a fascinating, in-depth conversation. 
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  We are born as perfect reflections of the divine and then we accumulate these negative perceptions of ourselves. We can learn to identify and sweep away these perceptions through a meticulous, step-by-step process. 
 Time is going to pass anyway, so if you have a decision to make, consider yourself in a few years either having accomplished “x,y.z” or wishing you had. 
 Anything that is consistent with unconditional love will bring other things into your life that are in alignment with the divine. 
 You won’t accomplish spiritual/self enlightenment in one magic moment, but you can commit to a lifetime process in a moment. 
   
 BEST MOMENTS  
  “We are born; our egos take control; and we become these method actors that don't understand our reality. Our reality is our soul. This is just a tool, this is a rented vehicle, this body. And the thing is we never step outside of that and go, ‘Oh, wait a minute, I'm just playing a role, I'm just learning lessons that I need to learn.’ I actually have this control of whatever it is that I'm doing. If I can keep that control, consistent with unconditional love, with all of the things that you know, are in this unified divine consciousness, then my life will be entirely different.”
 “All the safety, the peace, the security, the love, the joy that you are looking for, it's all inside of you. It's not without you. Everything that you see is merely a reflection of your beliefs. You change your beliefs, you change what you see. But in order to change your beliefs, you need to have a process to do that.”
 “When you go into the silence and stillness, this gives the opportunity for the divine to start to enter into you.”
 “What you create will magnetize to you, so if the more you give and you give with love, the more that will come back to you.”
   
 ABOUT THE GUEST  
 Neil had a successful career in engineering project management, a happy marriage and family, but he was in a very dark place. After Covid hit, his career dried up, and then the decades he’d spent studying spirituality kicked in. Spending so much time with himself, he realized that he had all the qualities inside himself that he was searching for to “give himself enlightenment”. His journey brought him to writing his book, A Higher Road. Now he wants to support other people as they ask themselves those defining questions to help become actualized, fulfilled human beings. Neil and his family live in Vancouver BC, Canada.

 ABOUT THE GUEST  
 Neil had a successful career in engineering project management, a happy marriage and family, but he was in a very dark place. After Covid hit, his career dried up, and then the decades he’d spent studying spirituality kicked in. Spending so much time with himself, he realized that he had all the qualities inside himself that he was searching for to “give himself enlightenment”. His journey brought him to writing his book, A Higher Road. Now he wants to support other people as they ask themselves those defining questions to help become actualized, fulfilled human beings. Neil and his family live in Vancouver BC, Canada.

        <![CDATA[<p>Neil and I talk a lot today about spirituality, power and purpose. How we are beings composed of unconditional love and divinity, and how we can spend our whole lives trying to remember that one unassailable fact. After a career in project engineering management, Neil put the decades he’d spent reading about and studying spirituality into a book of his own, called A Higher Road, which aims to break down how to achieve a soul integration in seven easy-to-follow steps. Please join us for a fascinating, in-depth conversation. </p> <p><br><strong>KEY TAKEAWAYS</strong></p> <ul> <li>We are born as perfect reflections of the divine and then we accumulate these negative perceptions of ourselves. We can learn to identify and sweep away these perceptions through a meticulous, step-by-step process. </li> <li>Time is going to pass anyway, so if you have a decision to make, consider yourself in a few years either having accomplished “x,y.z” or wishing you had. </li> <li>Anything that is consistent with unconditional love will bring other things into your life that are in alignment with the divine. </li> <li>You won’t accomplish spiritual/self enlightenment in one magic moment, but you can commit to a lifetime process in a moment. </li> </ul> <p> </p> <p><strong>BEST MOMENTS  </strong></p> <ul> <li>“We are born; our egos take control; and we become these method actors that don't understand our reality. Our reality is our soul. This is just a tool, this is a rented vehicle, this body. And the thing is we never step outside of that and go, ‘Oh, wait a minute, I'm just playing a role, I'm just learning lessons that I need to learn.’ I actually have this control of whatever it is that I'm doing. If I can keep that control, consistent with unconditional love, with all of the things that you know, are in this unified divine consciousness, then my life will be entirely different.”</li> <li>“All the safety, the peace, the security, the love, the joy that you are looking for, it's all inside of you. It's not without you. Everything that you see is merely a reflection of your beliefs. You change your beliefs, you change what you see. But in order to change your beliefs, you need to have a process to do that.”</li> <li>“When you go into the silence and stillness, this gives the opportunity for the divine to start to enter into you.”</li> <li>“What you create will magnetize to you, so if the more you give and you give with love, the more that will come back to you.”</li> </ul> <p> </p> <p><strong>ABOUT THE GUEST  </strong></p> <p>Neil had a successful career in engineering project management, a happy marriage and family, but he was in a very dark place.

      <title>E315: Finding That North Star - Interview With Scott McGimpsey</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/finding-that-north-star-interview-with-scoot-mcgim</link>
      <description>Scott was dealt a hard hand in his youth, but after he “graduated” from foster care when he was 18, he started on the path that led him to becoming first a personal trainer and then a motivational coach and the creation of his Bend not Break program. He shares his past from an authentic and vulnerable place because he wants to help others who may have hard beginnings and don’t know how to start improving things for themselves. A turning point for him was the birth of his daughter, Lexi, who is the guiding light for his purpose in life; he wants her to see that he will never give up. I found our conversation to be very powerful and inspiring, I think you will too. 
  
 KEY TAKEAWAYS 
  Forgiveness of others can help free you from the anger that keeps you frozen in place and unable to accomplish your dreams
 You need to feel your feelings and be where you are, but put boundaries in place so that you don’t stay in those dark places. Take breaks, step back, nurture yourself. 
 You need to figure out how to fill your own well so that you are operating from a place of prosperity. 
 Trust yourself when you feel like something doesn’t feel right. Listen to those internal guideposts and rather than trying to disconnect from those feelings, try and figure out how to resolve them.
   
 BEST MOMENTS  
  “There are constantly things that stress us or that push us to our limits –  that make us feel that we want to give up. And I mean, I was a testament to that; there were four different times where I was literally five minutes away from just…tapping out. And it was the people around me that supported me and gave me that hope and saw my potential. And that's the kind of mental part of it as well. So I wanted to do something that was done for me… to help other people.”
 “I guess what sets me apart is…I can see people and that's something that I guess came from my life experience and constantly watching. And I think that [makes] people feel valued. I think once you're straight with people, you're empathetic, and you're able to actually show a genuine interest and are able to help people.”
 “I need to have those little circuit breakers; I started to call them circuit breakers after COVID –  I need to have those things in my life to reinvigorate me and to do things for me. Self-care is not selfish.”
 “It's just very liberating to know who you are, why you're doing what you're doing, and the life that you want to live.”
   
 ABOUT THE GUEST  
 Scott spent most of his childhood in foster care. He lost his mother to alcohol addiction and his father to a broken heart a few years later. Scott always loved being active and athletic, so he began to train to be a personal trainer, but soon found he needed to do more than just PT, so he began to study more and take steps to become a motivational and life coach. His life experiences and passion for holistic fitness inspired him to create the Bend Not Break program, which enables him to take select clients through exercise and nutrition plans to help them blow through their own obstacles. 
 Scott lives in Belfast with his reason for being, his seven-year-old daughter, Lexi.

      <title>E314: “We aren’t guaranteed the next moment”   - Ryan Rae Harbuck Interview (Redux)</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/we-aren-t-guaranteed-the-next-moment-ryan-rae-harb</link>
      <description>Ryan Rae Harbuck is back on the show today, along with her recently self-published memoir, “When I Grow Up, I Want to Be a Chair.” We talk a lot about her experiences writing the book, the endurance it took over years to get it visualized and completed, how having faith in oneself can be practiced and built up like a muscle. For Ryan, being an athlete and a writer and a person in the world are very similar: if you practice it daily, you’ll get better. Her experiences and perspective on the world have made her extraordinarily wise and self-reflective; I hope you enjoy our second conversation just as much as I did. KEY TAKEAWAYS 
  
  “When I Grow Up I Want to Be a Chair” took Ryan 15 years to write, and most recently she had to write in 20-minute grabs while her two young kids were playing. Find a way to create what you need to create and don’t despair if it takes longer than you expect. 
 Sharing your vulnerability with others is always going to open doors and create empathetic connections. 
 Ryan says at one point that “the universe has always had a way of guiding her to what she needed” and that certain things came very easy to her because she did not struggle. There is something to be said for going with the flow and saying yes to every random opportunity, knowing that it may offer you untold adventure. 
 What is right for you may not be right for anyone else, and once you learn to accept and respect your own boundaries, you can see what you have to offer the world that no-one else does. 
  
 BEST MOMENTS  
  
  “I was always a swimmer. And as a swimmer, or as any sort of athlete, you learn to practice. And when you practice, you get better. I think that there was just sort of that ingrown sense of being athletic and understanding that, okay, well, if I practice going up this hill nine times, I'll get better at it. So then I did.I think that the simplicity of practice really did help me be able to do the things I wanted to.”
 “I suppose I mean, you can always look back and say, ‘maybe I could have done something differently.’ But that doesn't really serve me. So, at this point, I don't think that there's anything that I would do differently. I have made it a very purposeful journey of mine, to not let myself regret things.”
 “Once I was actually well enough, by my standards… I started to sneak out of my house and go swimming…. That changed me in so many ways, because it kind of gave me that passion for swimming back and it gave me something to try for and in one of those little secret swims that I had…I made a promise to myself…that I was going to compete again and I was going to try my hardest. I was going to see what happened and be the poster child for what happens when you put 100% of yourself into something.”
 “Certainly everybody has a story. And I would challenge people to sit down and figure out what their story would be, because I think that a lot of people would be surprised by the answer. A lot of times, the things that are the most important or the most poignant, aren't the biggest explosions in your life or the biggest, you know, blockbuster moments, they're much smaller than that.”
  
  ABOUT THE GUEST  
 Ryan has always been an outdoor enthusiast and she enjoys adventuring wherever her wheels will take her. She is a professional swim coach, author, and mom. She, her husband Andrew, and their two boys live in Denver Colorado.

      <itunes:summary>Ryan Rae Harbuck is back on the show today, along with her recently self-published memoir, “When I Grow Up, I Want to Be a Chair.” We talk a lot about her experiences writing the book, the endurance it took over years to get it visualized and completed, how having faith in oneself can be practiced and built up like a muscle. For Ryan, being an athlete and a writer and a person in the world are very similar: if you practice it daily, you’ll get better. Her experiences and perspective on the world have made her extraordinarily wise and self-reflective; I hope you enjoy our second conversation just as much as I did. KEY TAKEAWAYS 
  
  “When I Grow Up I Want to Be a Chair” took Ryan 15 years to write, and most recently she had to write in 20-minute grabs while her two young kids were playing. Find a way to create what you need to create and don’t despair if it takes longer than you expect. 
 Sharing your vulnerability with others is always going to open doors and create empathetic connections. 
 Ryan says at one point that “the universe has always had a way of guiding her to what she needed” and that certain things came very easy to her because she did not struggle. There is something to be said for going with the flow and saying yes to every random opportunity, knowing that it may offer you untold adventure. 
 What is right for you may not be right for anyone else, and once you learn to accept and respect your own boundaries, you can see what you have to offer the world that no-one else does. 
  
 BEST MOMENTS  
  
  “I was always a swimmer. And as a swimmer, or as any sort of athlete, you learn to practice. And when you practice, you get better. I think that there was just sort of that ingrown sense of being athletic and understanding that, okay, well, if I practice going up this hill nine times, I'll get better at it. So then I did.I think that the simplicity of practice really did help me be able to do the things I wanted to.”
 “I suppose I mean, you can always look back and say, ‘maybe I could have done something differently.’ But that doesn't really serve me. So, at this point, I don't think that there's anything that I would do differently. I have made it a very purposeful journey of mine, to not let myself regret things.”
 “Once I was actually well enough, by my standards… I started to sneak out of my house and go swimming…. That changed me in so many ways, because it kind of gave me that passion for swimming back and it gave me something to try for and in one of those little secret swims that I had…I made a promise to myself…that I was going to compete again and I was going to try my hardest. I was going to see what happened and be the poster child for what happens when you put 100% of yourself into something.”
 “Certainly everybody has a story. And I would challenge people to sit down and figure out what their story would be, because I think that a lot of people would be surprised by the answer. A lot of times, the things that are the most important or the most poignant, aren't the biggest explosions in your life or the biggest, you know, blockbuster moments, they're much smaller than that.”
  
  ABOUT THE GUEST  
 Ryan has always been an outdoor enthusiast and she enjoys adventuring wherever her wheels will take her. She is a professional swim coach, author, and mom. She, her husband Andrew, and their two boys live in Denver Colorado.

      <title>E313: Roll the Dice and Pick One -- Charlene Madden Interview</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/roll-the-dice-and-pick-one-charlene-madden-intervi</link>
      <description>Charlene Madden has lived through things none of us should have to. As a survivor of childhood sexual abuse at the hands of her grandfather, and then an abusive marriage that lasted a decade, she had a plan to end her own life when she, by magical chance, attended a workshop. Three speakers, one after the other, each of them telling a different part of her story. Charlene realized that if others could find their way to loving themselves, why not her. That moment was a catalyst that started her on the path she is on today – as a motivational speaker and coach, she aims to help every person realize that they can survive their worst days with the right tools and community support. 
 KEY TAKEAWAYS 
  There are many resources, in person or online, that if you need help, you can find a lot of options of community support. Reach out and get help from someone who, who you feel you can connect with and who you feel understands.
 Once you can love yourself enough, you'll set boundaries, and the boundaries are not just for other people, you're going to set boundaries for yourself as well on what you're willing to allow yourself to do in your life.
 Protect your peace at all costs. 
 Figure out how to fill your own well and you’ll have a source of energy that is constantly replenishing itself. 
  
 BEST MOMENTS  
  “I think the first story I remember writing, I must have been really young, probably grade two or three –  it was a story about a baby and a mama horse, and the baby horse lost her mom. The story was called, “Do You Know Where My Mom Is?” Right. And, looking back on it now, I'm thinking, ‘wow, this was a child who was really projecting the pain that she'd already experienced as a child into a story.’”
 “Mental health is like diabetes, right? It's something that you're going to live with for the rest of your life; it's not something that you know, you just all of a sudden, one day go, ‘Hey, I'm better.’ You know, because I am better. I don't suffer as badly as I used to. That's why doing the work, and learning to listen to my body –  to slow down and take care of myself, which I didn't for so many years [is so important]. It's definitely not something that ever leaves you, you just learn how to deal with it in healthier ways. Generally, my life is 100% different than it was just six years ago. And, and that's why I'm so passionate about sharing what helped me get there with other people.”
 “Maybe I'm supposed to be here for a reason. Maybe I'm supposed to hear these messages, because maybe my purpose is to take all the crap that I have experienced, all the pain, all the trauma, and share it because other people have experienced it. And they need to know that there's hope.”
 “For me, the phoenix is so symbolic of the experiences that happen for people who have experienced trauma because I think you have to sometimes burn down to the ash.”
  
  ABOUT THE GUEST  
 Charlene is a mother of three amazing children, a wife, daughter, Reiki practitioner, women's empowerment coach and proud Toronto Maple Leafs fan. After almost 30 years in the food and beverage industry, Charlene made a shift and now works in a mining office, which allows her more time to follow her passion of creating platforms of healing for people who want to transform their trauma and free themselves.

      <title>E312: Making Your Own Luck -- Dave Combs Interview</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/312-fitb</link>
      <description>It’s not often that you get the chance to sit down and chat with an absolute legend, but I got the chance to do just that in today’s episode. Dave Combs had a successful career at a Fortune 500 company when he finally transcribed a melody he’d had in his head for a while. That song eventually became the hit Rachel’s Song, which paved the way for Combs to leave his first career and follow his heart and talent into the music industry. In today’s conversation, we talk about music, lessons learned along the way, humility, and much more. 
  
 KEY TAKEAWAYS + Something that you create in a pure sense (ie: not trying to be like anyone else) will authentically connect with others, and make a difference. 
  Have someone who knows you well (in Dave’s case, his wife) whose opinion you trust and who will give you solid ideas and advice about your next steps. 
 Be willing to fight and work hard for your dream and let go of where you think you’ll end up. Have joy in the work. 
 Your life and your “life’s work” will be so much better if you let others collaborate with you.  
   
 BEST MOMENTS  
  “ I learned to not rely upon just my own gifts, but to bring my circle of friends and other  people who are more gifted than I am, into what I’m doing. And that really applies to any kind of business, you need to surround yourself with people that are smarter than you are, and make that team as strong as it can be, rather than relying solely on yourself.”
 “I can sit down at the piano and I'll just hit one chord. And I'll listen to it ring for a minute or so; it'll ring on the piano for a long time. And if you really listen to it, for those that play an instrument, they know what I'm talking about. You can close your eyes and let that sound and that music come into your soul and it almost transforms you.”
 “ I figure my philosophy has always been you either go over to under or around it or through it. That's my philosophy about a wall.”
 “What I have learned is that – for any young person that has the fire in their belly to do something, and if they’ve proven that they're not just dreaming, or they're all in –  something they need to know is that you don't have to know 100%. But once you have that real desire and that level of determination, that fire in your belly, don't look back. You can make your decision, move forward, and good things will happen.”
   
 ABOUT THE GUEST  
 Dave is a native of Erwin Tennessee. After college, Dave moved to Winston-Salem, where he worked as a computer programmer for a Fortune 500 company and was the minister of music at his church. 
 Although he’s been a lifelong musician and student, Dave’s breakthrough was “Rachel’s Song”, which he wrote in 1981. He and his wife Linda continue to live in Winston-Salem.

      <title>E311: “What’s Important to You After You Die ” - Ryan Lindner Interview</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/what-s-important-to-you-after-you-die-ryan-lindner</link>
      <description>Are you truly living your life in a way that matches up with what you want it to be? Today’s guest, Ryan Lindner, experienced two serious cardiac episodes at a young age. After falling unconscious sometimes even with clients, he realized how important it was for him to understand his own energy and how to manage and care for it. It’s hard *not* to redefine your life after an event like that, and Ryan made it his mission to help others figure out what truly matters to them so that they could live each day, each moment, present and appreciative of their lives. There truly is no time to waste. 
  
  KEY TAKEAWAYS 
  Think about who you are if you don’t list your resume. And if you don’t know, explore that. If you do, explore it more. 
 We're all just here for a short time. People say life is short all the time, I know that. But again, you don't reflect that in your daily life.We make choices that don't reflect that. And that's all life is – it's all a series of choices you've made about what is and is not important to you.
 Every day can be an experiment in trial and error, every day can be a redo. If you find yourself getting trapped in a spiral of your own negative self-talk, try to treat yourself as you would a friend. It takes time but you can grow out of the habit. 
 Most people gravitate towards familiarity; rejection is not a comfortable feeling. So what do they do, they're gonna go back to the safety of familiarity. And that's why a lot of people don't take those big risks that are really necessary to learn.
   
 BEST MOMENTS  
 
  “That's all time management is – managing your own energy. When I had to manage my energy after going through a trauma, I didn't have time for the “problems”; I didn't have time to worry about those types of things. My life dramatically shifted after that and [my coaching] sessions shifted as well.”
 “If you believe that you're stuck, and you don't have time, then that's true.”
 “Every day is a redo. And that's the sort of grace that you can extend to yourself, not just other people.”
 “Lately, I've been trying to help this stray cat. She's so tiny and hungry. I've been trying to – I don't know what I'm doing, really. But I look at her, and I just think  “I wonder what her life is like” –  you know, she doesn't have anyone, she probably has never been touched. [There’s]  something beautiful, like, trying to have a relationship with this cat, to where there's trust, and I think I feel more at peace, you know, fulfilling my purpose working with a stray cat, then I would, at any career endeavor.There's just something you know, just beautiful about being there with life.”
   
  ABOUT THE GUEST  Ryan Lindner is a personal development specialist who has worked as a behavioral coach for clients and organizations worldwide. After two sudden, unexplained cardiac arrests at a young age, he began to explore with clients the different perspectives that come with any profound, life-changing event. 
  
 If you aren’t living, you’re dying. It wasn’t uncommon for Ryan to teeter on unconsciousness even, at times, while working with a client, which required him to prioritize his energy and time. He learned how to assist clients to do the same. Ryan enjoys his time with his family and animals. He finds peace near his favorite spots by the beach.

And that's why a lot of people don't take those big risks that are really necessary to learn.</li> </ul> <p> </p> <p>BEST MOMENTS  </p> <p><br><br></p> <ul> <li>“That's all time management is – managing your own energy. When I had to manage my energy after going through a trauma, I didn't have time for the “problems”; I didn't have time to worry about those types of things. My life dramatically shifted after that and [my coaching] sessions shifted as well.”</li> <li>“If you believe that you're stuck, and you don't have time, then that's true.”</li> <li>“Every day is a redo. And that's the sort of grace that you can extend to yourself, not just other people.”</li> <li>“Lately, I've been trying to help this stray cat. She's so tiny and hungry. I've been trying to – I don't know what I'm doing, really. But I look at her, and I just think  “I wonder what her life is like” –  you know, she doesn't have anyone, she probably has never been touched. [There’s]  something beautiful, like, trying to have a relationship with this cat, to where there's trust, and I think I feel more at peace, you know, fulfilling my purpose working with a stray cat, then I would, at any career endeavor.There's just something you know, just beautiful about being there with life.”</li> </ul> <p> </p> <p> ABOUT THE GUEST  <br><br>Ryan Lindner is a personal development specialist who has worked as a behavioral coach for clients and organizations worldwide.

It wasn’t uncommon for Ryan to teeter on unconsciousness even, at times, while working with a client, which required him to prioritize his energy and time.

      <title>E310: “Lead in the Way You Want to Go ” - Mary Welp Interview</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/lead-in-the-way-you-want-to-go-mary-welp-interview</link>
      <description>Sometimes you need the world to crash around you before you spiritually wake up to realize you are not living your true life. Our guest today, Mary Welp, is a cranio-sacral and body work practitioner who believes that we need to be more authentic and vulnerable both as a daily practice with ourselves and in our interactions to live our lives filled with purpose. 
 She has spent the last 20 years focusing on her mission to help others self-actualize and our hour of conversation truly flew by. I hope you’ll join us. 
  
  KEY TAKEAWAYS 
  Use the acronym RISE {Relax, Imagine, Suggest, Empower}  to move past your reactive emotions and become more emotionally regulated so that you can actually be present in each moment. 
 To live your best life, be vulnerable, authentic, grateful, and find your purpose. 
 You don’t have to believe in bodywork, like Reiki, to get on a practitioner’s table. The work never requires your belief. 
 A story about a father and a son standing on the banks of a dirty river: the son asked his father, “Dad, is the river polluted?” And he says “no, Son, the river is not polluted. The river is pure, it just carries pollutants. I'd like to remind us that we can stand on the banks and watch our thoughts. So question what you think? Question what is in your river, your habits, your thoughts, your imprints. If something in your river does not suit you anymore, does not help you, does not make you a better, happier person – fish it out, get it out of that river. Change is possible for all of us.
   
 BEST MOMENTS  
  “In our culture, we give a hard time to people who state what they need, and there is nothing wrong with that – we all have needs.” 
 “If you're consistent; if you wake up with the same intention several days in a row, that's adding more and more fuel and power to that intention. Because intentions and thoughts are energy, they are physical energy. So what energy do you want to create around yourself?”
 “When we pre-design our life, we are excluding all of the extra magic and beauty that can happen in our life, because we are setting ourselves down such a rigid path, that maybe there's an opportunity for something that we had never dreamt of, to happen.”
   
  ABOUT THE GUEST  
 Mary Welp, CH, is a certified hypnotherapist specializing in hypnotic meditation. After 20 years as a practitioner in Craniosacral therapy and 14 years as a certified hypnotherapist, she launched RISE Hypnotic Meditation to teach others how to bring meaningful, positive changes to their lives. She lives in Louisville, Kentucky.

      <title>E309: “Who Do You Choose to Be ” - Jem Fuller Interview</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/who-do-you-choose-to-be-jem-fuller-interview</link>
      <description>Join me for this wonderful conversation with a man who seems to have done it all. He’s backpacked around the world, been a traditional tattooist, founded companies, and he has written a fabulous book, “The Art of Conscious Communication for Thoughtful Men.”. He has studied mindfulness and awareness and brings this spirit of adventure and spiritual equanimity to every interaction. We talk about how paying attention, and making intentional decisions can shape us and the people in our world. 
  
  KEY TAKEAWAYS 
 
  We can practice our communication in the traditional sense, to share a sense of community with one another. And we can understand this as a skill, and improve on it. 
 Everything is a projection, so we can train ourselves to change our projections and therefore our perceptions – we can change our lives. 
 We can gradually change our ways of thinking over time that will enable us to curate a life closer to the one we’ve always visualized for ourselves. 
 There is a real magic to life that underwrites the scientific explanations. We can’t identify it, only experience it. 
  
 BEST MOMENTS  
  [Do you love yourself?] “I do. This is how I feel about myself. I'm a really good man. You know, I'm kind, I'm generous, I'm loving. I care. I'm passionate. Action-taking. You know, I've brainwashed myself to love myself – literally fired the neurons so many times that they've wired together. And I believe my own hype. So, am I worthy of love? Well, philosophically, I believe we all are. But did I love myself before like this? No. So how did I change? Persistence, consistency, determination, and repetition, every day, out loud, “I am good enough, just the way I am.”” 
 “Everything I ever said or did to myself or anyone else, whether it was loving or cruel, or whatever it was, apparently, I should have done it. Why? Because I did.I can't change it. Does that mean I want to repeat the mistakes in the future? Hopefully not. Hopefully, we learn and grow and evolve, right? But everything that's happened should have. This is radical self acceptance.”
 “I certainly understand that most of what we do is subconscious. Most of what the brain does, by the way, is running this system, this body of ours that we’re completely unaware of. And I also you know, I love the practice of being more conscious, spending more time noticing – whatever it is that you can notice. And I find there's a lot of practical and functional application of that into the quality of your life.”
 “What I find fascinating is, in those glimpses of being beyond identification, beyond the ego in those glimpses, is that me?”

        <![CDATA[<p>Join me for this wonderful conversation with a man who seems to have done it all. He’s backpacked around the world, been a traditional tattooist, founded companies, and he has written a fabulous book, “The Art of Conscious Communication for Thoughtful Men.”. He has studied mindfulness and awareness and brings this spirit of adventure and spiritual equanimity to every interaction. We talk about how paying attention, and making intentional decisions can shape us and the people in our world. </p> <p> </p> <p> KEY TAKEAWAYS </p> <p><br><br></p> <ul> <li>We can practice our communication in the traditional sense, to share a sense of community with one another. And we can understand this as a skill, and improve on it. </li> <li>Everything is a projection, so we can train ourselves to change our projections and therefore our perceptions – we can change our lives. </li> <li>We can gradually change our ways of thinking over time that will enable us to curate a life closer to the one we’ve always visualized for ourselves. </li> <li>There is a real magic to life that underwrites the scientific explanations. We can’t identify it, only experience it. </li> </ul> <p><br><br></p> <p>BEST MOMENTS  </p> <ul> <li>[Do you love yourself?] “I do. This is how I feel about myself. I'm a really good man. You know, I'm kind, I'm generous, I'm loving. I care. I'm passionate. Action-taking. You know, I've brainwashed myself to love myself – literally fired the neurons so many times that they've wired together. And I believe my own hype. So, am I worthy of love? Well, philosophically, I believe we all are. But did I love myself before like this? No. So how did I change? Persistence, consistency, determination, and repetition, every day, out loud, “I am good enough, just the way I am.”” </li> <li>“Everything I ever said or did to myself or anyone else, whether it was loving or cruel, or whatever it was, apparently, I should have done it. Why? Because I did.I can't change it. Does that mean I want to repeat the mistakes in the future? Hopefully not. Hopefully, we learn and grow and evolve, right? But everything that's happened should have. This is radical self acceptance.”</li> <li>“I certainly understand that most of what we do is subconscious. Most of what the brain does, by the way, is running this system, this body of ours that we’re completely unaware of. And I also you know, I love the practice of being more conscious, spending more time noticing – whatever it is that you can notice. And I find there's a lot of practical and functional application of that into the quality of your life.”</li> <li>“What I find fascinating is, in those glimpses of being beyond identification, beyond the ego in those glimpses, is that me?”</li> </ul> <p> </p> <p> ABOUT THE GUEST  </p> <p><br>Jem Fuller has backpacked around the world, founded several businesses, but it’s his study of mindfulness over the past several years that has changed his life as well as the lives of countless others. He has been a TedX and motivational speaker, a life coach, and wants to change the lives of others by teaching them how to identify their own core values and learn how to communicate with others. Jem and his family are based in Australia. </p> <p> </p> <p> CONTACT METHOD </p> <p> </p> <p>Jem’s website: jemfuller.com </p> <p>Instagram: <a href="https://www.instagram.com/jemfuller/">https://www.instagram.com/jemfuller/</a></p> <p>Linktr.ee: <a href="https://linktr.ee/jemfuller">https://linktr.ee/jemfuller</a></p> <p><br><br><br></p> <p>ABOUT THE HOST </p> <p>The ‘Mighty Pete Lonton’ from the ‘Mighty 247’ company is your main host of ‘Fire in The Belly’. </p> <p>Pete is an entrepreneur, mentor, coach, property Investor, and father of three beautiful girls. Pete’s background is in project management and property, but his true passion is the ‘Fire in The Belly’ project itself. His mission is to help others find their potential and become the mightiest version of themselves. Pete openly talks about losing both of his parents, suffering periods of depression, business downturn and burn-out, and ultimately his years spent not stoking ‘Fire in the Belly’. In 2017, at 37 years of age that changed, and he is now on a journey of learning, growing, accepting, and inspiring others.</p> <p>Pete can connect with people and intuitively asks questions to reveal a person’s passion and discover how to live their mightiest life.

      <title>E308: “Prosper Where You’re Planted ” - Darrell Evans Interview</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/prosper-where-you-re-planted-darrell-evans-intervi</link>
      <description>Darrell Evans has founded and run six multi-million dollar companies since he was 20. He’s a natural entrepreneur whose main mission in life has been to make a positive impact on others. In our conversation we talk about his sometimes circuitous journey to becoming the business mentor he is now, and the lessons he has learned along the way: how to decide what is truly important for you and how to prioritize that, how to become successful in a literal and figurative sense. I hope you enjoy it. 
  
  KEY TAKEAWAYS 
  
  There is a connection between sports (the team building, the discipline, the practice) and entrepreneurship
 It is important to be transparent about the struggles you’ve had in your journey to humanize the process and demonstrate empathy with those who may want to follow in your footsteps
 Find out what works for you and hone that. Darrell finds creative juice in “procrastinating”: the adrenaline high of the time crunch and delivering diamond-cut results right on deadline. For a lot of people that would be a “flaw” that would need to be “corrected”. 
 When you’re considering a new opportunity, you need to check that, if you say yes to it, will that compromise your ability to be the best and most present version of yourself to the commitments you’ve already made.
  
 BEST MOMENTS  
  “I don't know that I was born an entrepreneur, but I do believe that there are a lot of aspects of my entrepreneurial journey where I have been made, in a sense. I think that there are some unique gifts that we were all given at birth, or we came into this world with. I call that someone's superstar DNA.” 
 “I've become more sensitive to “opportunity costs” and realizing that I have a kind of newer decision model. … The distinction is hell yes. You can't say yes to all things. So there's good opportunities. But is it a “hell yes” opportunity?”
 “I think our weaknesses can catapult us to our greatest strengths, if we are able to find comfort in who we are.”
 “Jim Rohn said, “You know, it's not the blowing of the wind that determines your destination, it is the set of your sail. When the winds blow, they blow on all of us.All of us are going through it in some way, shape, or form. The question is, what do we want to do? How are we going to navigate the sail during the wind? Sometimes we wait too long to change the sail.”

      <title>E307: “Seek that Light and Truth in your Life ” - David R. Edwards  Interview</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/seek-that-light-and-truth-in-your-life-david-r-edw</link>
      <description>David has not only experience in the health care sector, but experience in managing the companies he’s been a part of, which has given him a unique perspective on the holistic nature of the human body. His work helped him realize that, in allopathic medicine, doctors don’t talk to each other so the ultimate picture of their patient’s health ends up fractured. He saw it proved, time and time again, that a more integrative approach was ultimately the healthier and more empowering choice. That inside out approach to one’s total health is what eventually led him to writing the book New You, Who Knew, where he advises readers on how to figure out who they are in life so that they can be guided by their own principles. This is a lovely, thoughtful conversation with someone whose own heart is worn on his sleeve. I hope you’ll join us. 
 
  KEY TAKEAWAYS 
  
  Nobody can truly have 27 core values because it’s too vague. It’s important for us as humans to work from our morals, but in order to understand what truly matters to us we need to get specific about what kind of world we want to create. 
 Getting intentional about our life can help us both live better in the present moment and get better prepared for the future. 
 Focus on the little things that we actually have control over. 
 Living the life you are meant to frees up a lot of energy for the work you are meant to do. 
  
 BEST MOMENTS  
  
  “What's our mission, our purpose – if you will, our passion –  to me, that makes a huge difference.”
 “We are better off if those from whom we seek help for our health,  to optimize our health or to overcome challenges with our health, if they would think of us as a whole person.”
 “If we think of ourselves not as assets, but as human beings, what a shocking concept. We are human beings, right? We are a part of nature, we influenced nature, we are influenced by nature. And I like this natural metaphor because I think it fits human beings better. And so if we think of values as a foundation, it's like having strong roots.”
 “Having regrets is like having a backpack, you know, filled with rocks and useless stuff, they’re not gold bars, but rocks. And so when we don't have regrets in our life, you know, that backpack gets a lot lighter. “
  
  ABOUT THE GUEST  
 For over 30 years, David worked in the health care sector, eventually becoming the CEO of a community health center, working to create the first patient-first, integrative health service. After his own eureka moment, he left his high-paying job and wrote the book “New You, Who Knew?” which aims to instill a foundation of values in every person so that they can face their life feeling empowered to make their own decisions. He has been married to his wife Linda for 36 years, and they have two grown daughters.

 Getting intentional about our life can help us both live better in the present moment and get better prepared for the future. 
 Focus on the little things that we actually have control over. 
 Living the life you are meant to frees up a lot of energy for the work you are meant to do. 
  
 BEST MOMENTS  
  
  “What's our mission, our purpose – if you will, our passion –  to me, that makes a huge difference.”
 “We are better off if those from whom we seek help for our health,  to optimize our health or to overcome challenges with our health, if they would think of us as a whole person.”
 “If we think of ourselves not as assets, but as human beings, what a shocking concept. We are human beings, right? We are a part of nature, we influenced nature, we are influenced by nature. And I like this natural metaphor because I think it fits human beings better. And so if we think of values as a foundation, it's like having strong roots.”
 “Having regrets is like having a backpack, you know, filled with rocks and useless stuff, they’re not gold bars, but rocks. And so when we don't have regrets in our life, you know, that backpack gets a lot lighter. “

        <![CDATA[<p>David has not only experience in the health care sector, but experience in managing the companies he’s been a part of, which has given him a unique perspective on the holistic nature of the human body. His work helped him realize that, in allopathic medicine, doctors don’t talk to each other so the ultimate picture of their patient’s health ends up fractured. He saw it proved, time and time again, that a more integrative approach was ultimately the healthier and more empowering choice. That inside out approach to one’s total health is what eventually led him to writing the book New You, Who Knew, where he advises readers on how to figure out who they are in life so that they can be guided by their own principles. <br><br>This is a lovely, thoughtful conversation with someone whose own heart is worn on his sleeve.

      <title>E306: Divine Beings For Divine Timing –  Roxanne Chaput Interview</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/306-fitb</link>
      <description>Imagine surviving not one, not two, but four near-death experiences and coming out of that with an unshakeable sense of who you are and what your purpose is, and you will have a glimpse of what my conversation with today’s guest is like. 
 Roxanne Chaput is an energy healer, life coach and certified shaman, who has worked in palliative care and has supported thousands of people on their own self-realization journeys. With a contagious laugh and a clear-eyed sense of purpose about who she is and what she is here to do, we have a deep discussion on how to find ourselves, how to clear our energy, and how to start going down the path we need to. 
  
  KEY TAKEAWAYS 
  We often put this energy out in the world where we say we want something, but we don’t believe that we can get it. So we confuse ourselves and the universe. 
 We can know a lot about the world but none of us knows everything about the world. It is important to keep that humility so that we can continue to learn from everyone we come into contact with, every day. 
 We can release ourselves from the conditions we place on ourselves about not deserving good love, good relationships, work that fulfills our purpose. And sometimes we need mentors to show us how. 
 When we are ready to hear the message we will hear the message.
   
 BEST MOMENTS 
  “When we find a purpose, sometimes like we find, like an imminent purpose, where we love what we do…but there always feels like there's a little part missing or that we're not quite getting it right. And that usually means that we're not actually living to our soul’s purpose. So we can live …[our]  heart purpose, where we feel like we're fulfilled and we feel like we're happy doing what we're doing. But a soul [purpose]... having inner peace within us is a completely different feeling. And it resonates completely differently than just like our heart’s purpose.”
 “I believe that we are divine beings and we are divine creatures, and I have love for every single human being on this earth. Regardless if they have love for me in return. I think that as humanity, we are meant to love and serve one another.” 
 “I don't view death as a negative thing or as a bad thing. Yes, it's hard to understand that that person physically won’t be on this earth plane anymore. However, I know that their energy envelops me…I know that these people will never leave and that we will be reunited in this lifetime and other lifetimes through their energy.”
  “I love feeling the energy of the trees, the earth, the water, even fire, like just having fires outside, like, anything that really restores my energy and just really allows me to be at peace and smudging. And I think that those are really crucial and you know, really significant pieces that really helped me kind of restore and regenerate my energy.”
  
 ABOUT THE GUEST  
 Roxanne has several certifications to help empower you in finding your own purpose. She is a transformational; cognitive behavioral; and a confidence life coach; as well as an emotional intelligence coach and enlightened relationship coach. She has also been certified as a Law of Attraction and forgiveness coach, a neuro linguistic programming coach and a Shamanic Healer.

      <title>E305: Uncovering the Truth about Who We are –  Liam Naden Interview</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/305-fitb</link>
      <description>In this episode I have a fascinating conversation with Liam Naden, who feels half scientist, and half spiritual mystic. We talk about how to rewire our brains to let ourselves live life at our best; how to defuse fear; and how to turn on the best possible version of ourselves. We do this first by understanding how our brain works and getting past our primordial urges to protect ourselves. We don’t need to be passive observers of our lives anymore, we can be active participants. 
 
  KEY TAKEAWAYS 
  
  Our brains are basically machines, and we can learn how to use them properly, just like you were reading a manual. 
 If you put negative, toxic thoughts and ideas into your brain, you're going to get toxic results. 
 When you get rid of your fear, you do create your life, but you don't necessarily sit down and create a grand plan for your life. You allow your life to unfold and you do what it says in the Bible – you give no thought for tomorrow. 
 Ask yourself, why is this happening for me? What’s the gift here?
  
 BEST MOMENTS  
  
  “Your [brain’s] main function, it’s not just to keep you alive, and to manage everything about your life, but it’s to make sure that you are the best that you can possibly be. And that means physically, emotionally, mentally, spiritually. And the reason why it’s designed to make you the best that you can be, is because…you have a biological purpose. 
 “[Let’s] explain what the four parts of the brain are, because one of those parts is our connection to Infinite Intelligence, basically.  That is the intelligence that surrounds us, is in us and is all around us, there is an infinite [aspect] to it, there's something that's making all this universe work. And we can all agree that, you know, something's at work here. We can also agree that whatever it is, is infinite, that there is no, there is no end. And if it's infinite, it also must be intelligent. And that intelligence must be infinite as well.”
 “Whatever you do, don't be afraid. Because when you're afraid, you activate your sympathetic nervous system, you shut down your brain's infinite part to bring you all the solutions to any problems…give you your perfect life give you the life you're designed to live, you block all that out, because your brain, you're making your brain think you've got to react to something around you.”
 “You can't change what happened to you, but you can change what you think it means.”

 ABOUT THE HOST 
 The ‘Mighty Pete Lonton’ from the ‘Mighty 247’ company is your main host of ‘Fire in The Belly’. 
 Pete is an entrepreneur, mentor, coach, property Investor, and father of three beautiful girls. Pete’s background is in project management and property, but his true passion is the ‘Fire in The Belly’ project itself. His mission is to help others find their potential and become the mightiest version of themselves. Pete openly talks about losing both of his parents, suffering periods of depression, business downturn and burn-out, and ultimately his years spent not stoking ‘Fire in the Belly’. In 2017, at 37 years of age that changed, and he is now on a journey of learning, growing, accepting, and inspiring others.
 Pete can connect with people and intuitively asks questions to reveal a person’s passion and discover how to live their mightiest life. The true power of ‘Fire in The Belly’ is the Q&amp;A’s - Questions and Actions section. 
 The ‘Fire in The Belly’ brand and the programme is rapidly expanding into podcasts, seminars, talks, business workshops, development courses, and rapid results mentoring.

      <itunes:summary>In this episode I have a fascinating conversation with Liam Naden, who feels half scientist, and half spiritual mystic. We talk about how to rewire our brains to let ourselves live life at our best; how to defuse fear; and how to turn on the best possible version of ourselves. We do this first by understanding how our brain works and getting past our primordial urges to protect ourselves. We don’t need to be passive observers of our lives anymore, we can be active participants. 
 
  KEY TAKEAWAYS 
  
  Our brains are basically machines, and we can learn how to use them properly, just like you were reading a manual. 
 If you put negative, toxic thoughts and ideas into your brain, you're going to get toxic results. 
 When you get rid of your fear, you do create your life, but you don't necessarily sit down and create a grand plan for your life. You allow your life to unfold and you do what it says in the Bible – you give no thought for tomorrow. 
 Ask yourself, why is this happening for me? What’s the gift here?
  
 BEST MOMENTS  
  
  “Your [brain’s] main function, it’s not just to keep you alive, and to manage everything about your life, but it’s to make sure that you are the best that you can possibly be. And that means physically, emotionally, mentally, spiritually. And the reason why it’s designed to make you the best that you can be, is because…you have a biological purpose. 
 “[Let’s] explain what the four parts of the brain are, because one of those parts is our connection to Infinite Intelligence, basically.  That is the intelligence that surrounds us, is in us and is all around us, there is an infinite [aspect] to it, there's something that's making all this universe work. And we can all agree that, you know, something's at work here. We can also agree that whatever it is, is infinite, that there is no, there is no end. And if it's infinite, it also must be intelligent. And that intelligence must be infinite as well.”
 “Whatever you do, don't be afraid. Because when you're afraid, you activate your sympathetic nervous system, you shut down your brain's infinite part to bring you all the solutions to any problems…give you your perfect life give you the life you're designed to live, you block all that out, because your brain, you're making your brain think you've got to react to something around you.”
 “You can't change what happened to you, but you can change what you think it means.”

      <title>E304: “We Are the Vessel, We Are the Message” -  Jennifer Pilates Interview</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/we-are-the-vessel-we-are-the-message-jennifer-pila</link>
      <description>Jennifer and I have a fascinating discussion about health, spirituality, and intentionality – as you’ll hear, there isn’t much, if any separation between them for my guest today. From going through a traumatic accident when she was younger which started her on the path to becoming a Pilates instructor and healer that she is today, we talk about how to use questions to truly listen to the body. Health and manifestation are interlinked for Jennifer, and it was truly a joy to sit down and spend some time with her.
  
  KEY TAKEAWAYS 
  
  We are raised with this idea that we have to be singularly independent, but we are not meant to do life alone. It is okay to ask for help.
 You can continually set intentions for your day, and instill moments of ritual in the everyday tasks you do. 
 Mindset is practice, just like everything else. 
 The idea is to plant seeds for the life you want, and trust that they will blossom, even if you can’t see immediate changes. 
   
 BEST MOMENTS  
  “The moment that I found what was for me, that’s when I found myself. Where you are today is where you are today, that’s where you’re meant to be.”
 “The universe wants you to be crystal clear.”
 “The key is to have moments (of depression, uncertainty, etc). The key is to not have days.”
 “I love everyone, but I’m not *for* everyone, and that’s okay.”
   
  ABOUT THE GUEST  
 Jennifer has been a Pilates instructor for over 20 years. She became fascinated with the holistic healing modalities pilates offered after being in a serious car accident in the late 1990s. In her practice, Jennifer has motivated clients with her inspirational and intuitive understanding of human anatomy, and continued passion for the body, mind &amp; spirit connection. Jennifer, a third-generation Pilates instructor, had the honor of training directly under second-generation Pilates instructors and founders of the internationally renowned Pilates Center of Boulder. Jennifer was born and raised in Cape Cod Massachusetts, and owns Pilates studios all over the United States.

      <title>E303: “Be Comfortable with the Mystery” - Chad Mansbridge Interview</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/be-comfortable-with-the-mystery-chad-mansbridge-in</link>
      <description>Chad is a man whose faith is deep in his bones. He discovered a personal relationship with God when he was still in his teens, survived a near-death experience, and grew up to embody his spirituality by becoming a pastor. He is passionate about engaging with people who have doubts and questions about the existence of God, and is energized by talking about the big questions and using his experience, philosophy and belief to help others find answers. 
 . 
  KEY TAKEAWAYS 
  
  Most people haven’t read the Bible but have deeply embedded beliefs about what it consists of. Pastors can help people develop a relationship with God that works for them. 
 There is always something to learn. Curiosity and humility can only help us be continual, lifelong learners. It’s okay not to know everything!
 Teachers don’t necessarily have all the answers but they can help you ask the right questions.
 The only thing you need to engage with “ancient” texts or spiritual questions is a willingness to have an open mind. 
  
 BEST MOMENTS  
 “He’s not just some historical figure locked up in a dusty, old book – there is a living God who speaks and walks with people today.”
  
 “You *can* read the Bible, you *can* handle it.” 
  
 “I’m not religious; I consider my relationship with God the most important thing.”
  
 “It’s a historical narrative, you don’t have to be a scholar, or search for meaning.”
  
  ABOUT THE GUEST  
 Chad’s relationship with God truly began when he was a teenager, and has been an unshakeable cornerstone of his faith ever since. Chad is a pastor, a husband, a father, and an author of several books on spirituality. He and his family live in Australia.

 ABOUT THE HOST 
 The ‘Mighty Pete Lonton’ from the ‘Mighty 247’ company is your main host of ‘Fire in The Belly’. 
 Pete is an entrepreneur, mentor, coach, property Investor, and father of three beautiful girls. Pete’s background is in project management and property, but his true passion is the ‘Fire in The Belly’ project itself. His mission is to help others find their potential and become the mightiest version of themselves. Pete openly talks about losing both of his parents, suffering periods of depression, business downturn and burn-out, and ultimately his years spent not stoking ‘Fire in the Belly’. In 2017, at 37 years of age that changed, and he is now on a journey of learning, growing, accepting, and inspiring others.
 Pete can connect with people and intuitively asks questions to reveal a person’s passion and discover how to live their mightiest life. The true power of ‘Fire in The Belly’ is the Q&amp;A’s - Questions and Actions section. 
 The ‘Fire in The Belly’ brand and the programme is rapidly expanding into podcasts, seminars, talks, business workshops, development courses, and rapid results mentoring.

      <title>E302: “Tall Poppies” - Doug Garland Interview</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/tall-poppies-doug-garland-interview</link>
      <description>Doug and I have a thoughtful discussion about individuality, burnout, and how to integrate all aspects of ourselves into our daily life. As a long time medical doctor, professor, and practitioner, Doug has a unique perspective on how to dig down deep into ourselves to find out who we are, and how we can support ourselves to find health and optimal self expression. Join us for a thought-provoking, generous conversation that will leave you wanting more. 
 . 
  KEY TAKEAWAYS 
  
  As a society we don’t often prioritize or take time for self reflection, which is how we digest and process information and have original ideas. 
 We have been taught that the “tall poppy” growing in the field is the one that gets cut down, but as we move forward into the future it is our unique characteristics that will help reinvent our world. 
 Personal growth can be slow, but if you have faith that things are changing day by day you will see results. 
 Vulnerability, honesty, and supporting each other are true qualities of leadership. 
   
  
  
 BEST MOMENTS  
 “Good envy isn’t really talked about...envy is, by psychological standards, a functional state of being.”
  
 “We think that (bullying) is normal, so when you look at our business deals, that behavior you learned as a kid continues on in your life.”
  
 “Leadership is really just making sure that the people under you have all the things they need to do their job properly.”
  
 “The internet gives you the ability to see knowledge, but it doesn’t give you the ability to have wisdom. (Similarly), the problem I’ve had with inspirational books is that they aren’t inspirational enough to make you transform.”
  
  
  
  ABOUT THE GUEST  
 Douglas Garland, M.D. practiced orthopedic surgery for 37 years in Southern California. In addition to serving as Medical Director of their total joint service at his local hospital for five years, he served as chief of four service units including spinal cord injury and traumatic brain injury. Doug was also a Clinical Professor of Orthopedics at the University of Southern California , He presently divides his time between California and Montana with his wife, Cindy.

      <title>E301: Aligning with Your Genius – Mike Zeller Interview</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/aligning-with-your-genius-mike-zeller-interview</link>
      <description>Mike is one of those entrepreneurs who has an almost boundless supply of energy. He is known in the corporate world as the “business architect”, and enjoys helping people create the business which will not only sustain their finances, but their purpose in life. He has studied with self-actualization experts like Tony Robbins, and enjoys broadening his perspective and learning new things constantly. In this conversation, we break down the process of how to become acquainted with the thing that ignites us. By examining our patterns and seeing what does and does not work for us, we can remake our habits and watch productivity grow in the free spaces. 
 . 
  KEY TAKEAWAYS 
  We need to find out what we feel passionate about and make room in our lives for it. 
 When we are aligned with our purpose, we can achieve our flow state, where we can be several times more productive. An integral part of the flow state that a lot of people miss is resting. Figure out how to deeply replenish yourself.
 You can learn how to leverage your gifts for a deeper impact and fulfillment (in life). Even the experts have to practice and build skill in their area of expertise. 
 Be curious about life and who you are. Find out what you’re drawn to and what you can let go of. 
   
 BEST MOMENTS  
  “Let’s be more precise about our own lives, because today is the only day that I get to live. I get to live tomorrow too, hopefully, but I can choose to live it more intentionally, more purposefully, more aligned with my genius.”
 “When you’re tapped into your genius, you have more fun.”
 “Take out a sheet of paper. On one side, you write ‘life’, the other side, you write ‘death’. You look back at your life, especially the last few weeks, the last few months – at everything that’s brought you death, or what’s…brought you life. How much life have you had in your schedule? How much death…? How many things on your death list can you easily reduce or delete over the next few weeks?”
 “When we’re running on fumes, when we don’t have enough juice in the tank, we’re just limp biscuits.”
   
  ABOUT THE GUEST  
 Mike is “the most famous social entrepreneur you’ve never heard of”. He, his wife and family live in Nashville Tennessee, though his curiosity and love of travel take him all over the world. Mike is known for having helped over 100 high-level clients all over the world transform their businesses by helping them hone in on their “why”, which has translated into hundreds of thousands of dollars of profit for them.
 Through psychology and philosophical theories like “flow state”, Mike proves that you can be compassionate, kind, and a CEO.

      <itunes:summary>Mike is one of those entrepreneurs who has an almost boundless supply of energy. He is known in the corporate world as the “business architect”, and enjoys helping people create the business which will not only sustain their finances, but their purpose in life. He has studied with self-actualization experts like Tony Robbins, and enjoys broadening his perspective and learning new things constantly. In this conversation, we break down the process of how to become acquainted with the thing that ignites us. By examining our patterns and seeing what does and does not work for us, we can remake our habits and watch productivity grow in the free spaces. 
 . 
  KEY TAKEAWAYS 
  We need to find out what we feel passionate about and make room in our lives for it. 
 When we are aligned with our purpose, we can achieve our flow state, where we can be several times more productive. An integral part of the flow state that a lot of people miss is resting. Figure out how to deeply replenish yourself.
 You can learn how to leverage your gifts for a deeper impact and fulfillment (in life). Even the experts have to practice and build skill in their area of expertise. 
 Be curious about life and who you are. Find out what you’re drawn to and what you can let go of. 
   
 BEST MOMENTS  
  “Let’s be more precise about our own lives, because today is the only day that I get to live. I get to live tomorrow too, hopefully, but I can choose to live it more intentionally, more purposefully, more aligned with my genius.”
 “When you’re tapped into your genius, you have more fun.”
 “Take out a sheet of paper. On one side, you write ‘life’, the other side, you write ‘death’. You look back at your life, especially the last few weeks, the last few months – at everything that’s brought you death, or what’s…brought you life. How much life have you had in your schedule? How much death…? How many things on your death list can you easily reduce or delete over the next few weeks?”
 “When we’re running on fumes, when we don’t have enough juice in the tank, we’re just limp biscuits.”
   
  ABOUT THE GUEST  
 Mike is “the most famous social entrepreneur you’ve never heard of”. He, his wife and family live in Nashville Tennessee, though his curiosity and love of travel take him all over the world. Mike is known for having helped over 100 high-level clients all over the world transform their businesses by helping them hone in on their “why”, which has translated into hundreds of thousands of dollars of profit for them.
 Through psychology and philosophical theories like “flow state”, Mike proves that you can be compassionate, kind, and a CEO.

      <title>E300: “The Game of You Versus You ” - Mighty Pete</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/episode-300</link>
      <description>300 episodes seemed like an appropriate milestone to reflect back on the two years I’ve spent making this podcast, and talking with all these different, inspiring people from across the world. I never expected that I would be still in the thick of this project, all these episodes later, and I just feel incredibly grateful and privileged to be still doing my passion, my fire in the belly, all these years later with you as my audience. Join me as I reflect on all the joy I’ve uncovered and lessons I’ve learned over the past 300? 
  
 KEY TAKEAWAYS 
  There’s a difference between listening and hearing
 Today is the day; we get to make different choices.
 Become a master quitter. Rather than doing all the things you think you should be doing, how about doing one or two things really really well? 
 There comes a point in your own  passion journey where you can’t possibly work any harder, so then dream a little bigger. Visualize where you want to be and leave a little space for the magic to happen. 
   
 BEST MOMENTS  
  “(when)...guests, when they can...accept and really embellish the things that they’re good at, that they love, that’s where they sit in their ‘zone of genius’, if you like – and then also with the things they’re not good at, they get rid of it, they go somewhere else, they hand it over to someone else. Being understanding of yourself, that’s been one of the key, common messages, for a lot of people.”
 “Anyone who lives with a childlike wonderment, sometimes just asking the questions that nobody else does…out of those simple questions, come the best answers.”
  “How can we hear each other properly?”
 “Things aren’t happening to you, they are happening for you.”

      <title>E299: “Harness Your Life” - Babs Faseesin Interview</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/harness-your-life-babs-faseesin-interview</link>
      <description>I loved my conversation with Babs. He has the calm, yet passionate conviction of a spiritual teacher, who has the scientific, business data to back up his claims. We talk about how to access our purpose in life, how to hone it, how to dig deep into our own authenticity, and how to use our challenges to bring out our best qualities. I hope you enjoy it. 
  
 . 
  KEY TAKEAWAYS 
  
 Don’t hold yourself back from finding a coach or mentor in whatever area of life you want to improve in. 
  
 Pressure is for diamonds. Life’s challenges come together to bring the best out of us, if we are ready to meet them.
  
 Create your dreams, speak them into the world, and then stick to your plans. 
  
 The person who isn’t very successful, they aren’t “not successful”, it’s an issue of mindset. Family background or wealth doesn’t predicate success, it’s a matter of perception.
  
  
 BEST MOMENTS  
 “Everything we do in the “afternoon” time of life, that’s when we start to activate some of the codes that we learned in the “morning time” of life. It’s when we’re most productive.” “(When) our life experiences have been similar, when those categories are similar, when we put those boxes together, we can then begin to find themes. Then those themes can tell us where to go or where to stay away from.”
  
 “My best and most creative ideas have come from the very early hours of the morning. I like to write when most people are asleep. I get most of my creation from the dark of the night. There is something beautiful about the night time and the early morning.” 
  
 “The game of basketball, for instance, there are individual players who are great, but it doesn’t matter how great they are, they still need a coach. And what the coach does is see the best within them and harness the skills.” 
  
  
  ABOUT THE GUEST  
 Babs is an experienced strategist and passionate business leader with keen insights into the development and implementation of high impact business transformations, and marketing &amp; brand development initiatives.

      <itunes:summary>I loved my conversation with Babs. He has the calm, yet passionate conviction of a spiritual teacher, who has the scientific, business data to back up his claims. We talk about how to access our purpose in life, how to hone it, how to dig deep into our own authenticity, and how to use our challenges to bring out our best qualities. I hope you enjoy it. 
  
 . 
  KEY TAKEAWAYS 
  
 Don’t hold yourself back from finding a coach or mentor in whatever area of life you want to improve in. 
  
 Pressure is for diamonds. Life’s challenges come together to bring the best out of us, if we are ready to meet them.
  
 Create your dreams, speak them into the world, and then stick to your plans. 
  
 The person who isn’t very successful, they aren’t “not successful”, it’s an issue of mindset. Family background or wealth doesn’t predicate success, it’s a matter of perception.
  
  
 BEST MOMENTS  
 “Everything we do in the “afternoon” time of life, that’s when we start to activate some of the codes that we learned in the “morning time” of life. It’s when we’re most productive.” “(When) our life experiences have been similar, when those categories are similar, when we put those boxes together, we can then begin to find themes. Then those themes can tell us where to go or where to stay away from.”
  
 “My best and most creative ideas have come from the very early hours of the morning. I like to write when most people are asleep. I get most of my creation from the dark of the night. There is something beautiful about the night time and the early morning.” 
  
 “The game of basketball, for instance, there are individual players who are great, but it doesn’t matter how great they are, they still need a coach. And what the coach does is see the best within them and harness the skills.”

      <title>E298: "Find the Quiet Place and Go From There" Will Schirmer</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/episode-298</link>
      <description>Will is an experienced HR professional who brings a wealth of knowledge and passion about people and how they work to his daily life. 
 He is consistently inspired by his life and his teachers, and he wishes to pass that along to others, and has made that his mission in  his career and through the books he writes. 
 We have a fascinating conversation about authentic, work priorities, how you can figure out for yourself what those are, and what traditional employers may not be understanding about the new career landscape. 
  KEY TAKEAWAYS 
  You need to work to live, not live to work. Understand that your life needs to exist outside of your job
 Emotional intelligence is just as important as experiential and academic experience, and emotional intelligence *is* a skill that can be learned and practiced. 
 Work backwards, but not in terms of a project, from the end of your life. What would you wish you had done differently? Work from that place of knowledge.
 How can we re-invent leadership to understand intrinsic motivation? How can we harness the lessons that we as a world have learned the past few years to help make work more meaningful and filled with purpose?
   
 BEST MOMENTS  
 "That's where good leadership comes in, I think -- not just using carrots and sticks, but really getting to know their people and leading with a sense of personal motivation and compassion. ... You only learn over time that it's about the journey and not the destination."
 "Writing a second book was better for me as a person. It helped me focus on, you know 'what does bring you joy'."
 "Nobody says 'gee I wish I bought a nicer car' or 'I wish I'd gotten a better raise or promotion.' We need to remap." 
 "The Great Resignation is happening amongst those leaders who aren't modern leaders. ... (employees are) leaving these leaders who haven't delivered for them."
  ABOUT THE GUEST  William Schirmer is a senior management professional in HR, having been involved with Human Resources, Talent Management, and Learning &amp; Development functions for domestic and international firms over more than twenty years. His expertise includes creation and deployment of leadership development programs for a number of organizations. William holds USA, UK, and Global HR certifications.

      <title>E297: “Audacity or Death” – Roy Osing Interview</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/audacity-or-death-roy-osing-interview</link>
      <description>Roy is passionate about business and running them authentically. After a career as a CMO, working for one company in different capacities, he began to write books about his experience. We have an intriguing conversation about what makes businesses and people successful, how they can stand out and how people can make their dreams come true.
  
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
 + success equals 20% planning, 80% execution.+ Certain things need to have the fingerprints of leadership; they can’t be delegated.+ Who are you? Use your character to inspire your business decisions; sometimes it’s better to ask forforgiveness than permission.+ Is it real? Does it represent something you care about? Is it true?
  
 BEST MOMENTS
 “What I care about is how you’re going to apply that knowledge to execute my strategy.”“I love blank paper because as I said earlier, creativity starts with the unknown. I believe that; I haveexperienced that. The difference is I’m not willing to start when there’s something already on the page.”“Success comes through getting a nano-inch of progress as fast as you can.... I’ve learned the power ofloyalty, that was one of the most underrated concepts in business.”“We didn’t have any inertia built into the business. You can do whatever you want. If you have motivationin your leaders, you can get it done.”
  
 ABOUT THE GUEST
 Roy has worked in business for over 20 years. As the president of a major data and internet company, his leadership took the company to $1 billion in annual sales.He is devoted to inspiring leaders, entrepreneurs and organizations to stand apart from the usual boring crowd and achieve their true potential.Over the past decade he has pivoted to writing down his experience in a series of books; his latest will be launched at the end of May 2022.Roy lives in Vancouver.

      <title>E296: “Flow State ” - Jean-Philippe Interview</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/flow-state-jean-philippe-interview</link>
      <description>Join me for a whimsical conversation with retired professional athlete Jean-Philippe, who has founded several athletic companies and has a background in corporate business. Deeply philosophical, and able to connect moving his body with spirituality, we talk about nature, the disconnection in today’s society, and of course, how to lose yourself on the slopes. 
  
 KEY TAKEAWAYS 
  How can we embody empathy, appreciation, and see all of what happens to us in the world as working for our benefit?
 We need to separate from the true survival challenges we faced in the beginning of human civilization and that we somehow downloaded into modern times. It is a lack of self esteem on the individual and collective levels. 
 We can never fully understand or grasp or see the truth because it is always perceived by imperfect people. 
 Allow yourself to be surprised by the new things you find about yourself. 
  BEST MOMENTS  
  “I was in a flow state for two and a half hours….it had been two and a half hours of perfect curves; I had this core, intimate experience of “being skiing” – it felt like I wasn’t there. I was the curve, I was the movement.”
 “Why am I being triggered, and what am I learning about myself? Which means, what is my relationship to – others?” 
 “I’m fully and over-simplifying, but if you see people that are colder and more shut down…they aren’t dancing as much…they trade for material safety, it might be a part of this collective process we are in.” 
 “It becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy in that we have a planet and an ecosystem that provides enough for everything we need. And because we believe it doesn’t, we're creating a life pattern where soon we won’t have enough.” 
  ABOUT THE GUEST  
 Jean-Philippe was born in the French part of Switzerland, but has a magical connection to Brazil. He played professional sports until he was in his late 20s and they still are a big part of his life. 
 He has been divorced twice and has three children. He is an adventurer, and an outdoors enthusiast.

      <title>E295: What is Inherited Trauma? with Writer Ruth Rotkowitz</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/with-ruth-rotkowitz</link>
      <description>Ruth Rotkowitz is a novelist, including the book Escaping a Whale which focuses around holocaust survivors. Join Ruth and Pete in this episode where they talk all about inherited trauma, how Ruth was inspired to write and why at 73 Ruth has finally realised her dreams and is living her truth as a novelist.
  
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  Ruth has always wanted to write. She loves reading, literature and writing. She became an English teacher where she taught at a specialist New York school as well as community colleges in New Jersey but also wrote too.
 As a child of holocaust survivors, Ruth has suffered from what is called inherited trauma. One of the many side effects of this is children feeling like they have to make their parents suffering worthwhile, often by being extremely successful. Recent research has also found that the trauma affects children biologically, that they are literally inheriting the trauma as DNA.
 Networking and finding other people who had suffered similar experiences to Ruth is what pushed her to take her book to a publisher.
 The fear that parents passed onto their children is very real. Many holocaust survivors for example, wouldn’t trust certain countries and would even be scared to be honest about their religion.
   
 BEST MOMENTS 
 “The holocaust is over but is it for the next generation?”
  
 “The reaction I have gotten [to the book] has been wonderful”

      <title>E294: Karin Freeland - The Ins and Outs of my Vagina</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/karin-freeland-the-ins-and-outs-of-my-vagina</link>
      <description>Karen is a speaker, life re-invention-coach and author. She focuses on helping women transform their lives and live their dreams with her tailored one-on-one coaching programme and wrote the book 'The Ins and Outs of my vagina' a funny, relatable and honest story about her life adventures with her partner in crime, her vagina named V.
  
  
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  Fire in the belly is something Karin felt from an early age but found from working in high pressure work environments she was just going through the motions and actually discovered she had lost that passion and creativity for life.
 When she began writing her book, Karin rediscovered her zest for life, her ability to be innovative, creative and so much more. It saved her and it then became her mission to help other women too.
 Karin believes she is living her purpose more than she ever has before in her life, yet she also recognises that her journey isn’t done.
 The way Karin starts her day is to fill it with gratitude. She ensures that she is grateful for what will happen for her in the day, she has the mindset of gratitude and this helps her feel positive as well as feeling like she has more control over situations. She is setting the tone and experience of what happens in each day.
 What a lot of people don’t know, is that Karin almost didn’t publish her book. She was worried and anxious about what people would think of her and how it would affect her family. But then she decided that she needed to let go of any shame and instead channeled her passion and excitement for the book. Even if it just changed one woman’s life it would be worth it.
   
 BEST MOMENTS 
  
 “The more I leaned into that and gave myself to explore my creativity and explore my dreams, it’s like the fire just got stronger and stronger”

      <title>E293: If You Really Want to Learn, Teach Others  - Speaking with Erik Everhard, ex-Porn Star and Sex Coach</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/293-fitb</link>
      <description>Join Pete as he speaks with one of the top performers is in the adult film world Erik Everhard. Erik has won numerous awards, been one of the top paid male performers and in 2010 embarked on a transformational journey studying NLP in one of the top institutes in America. He has made it his mission to teach elite sexual skills to high performers to help them dominate the bedroom as they do in the board room!
  
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  Fire in the belly to Erik, is the passion you feel inside you that drives you forward, that helps you work for and achieve the things you want in life.
 Rik believes you can’t easily define success, it is ne of those things that you realise and recognise when you see it. The feeling we get from success is so shrt-lived, often we need something tangible to hold onto.
 Before performing Erik studied at college, including courses in psychology and kinesiology. But he found nothing really caught his interest enough to keep studying. He dropped out completely and went to massage therapy school, it was whilst attending this school he got into the porn business.
 Erik likes to be and feel right but he has never put himself forward on topics unless he feels he truly understands and knows all the facts. He recognises his unique experience from being a porn star to understanding women, sex and both the physicality and psychology behind that.
 To become the successful adult performer he did, Erik had to master his own body. It was only when it came to writing his own book and teaching others that he was able to really unpack how he did this and the skills he had learnt and built.
 From a mental perspective, being a porn star is incredibly hard. It is this that usually ‘breaks people’, not being able to handle this.
 A lot of sexual education out there is written and made by women. But this can cause a barrier for men because it isn’t always aimed at them in the ways they are receptive to.
   
 BEST MOMENTS 
  
 “Sometimes you need something tangible to hold onto to let you know that you have had that success”
 “I was always interested in how I could be better”
 “You learn to master your own body”
 “You cannot perform your best if you don’t have the right mindset going in, mindset is everything”

      <title>E292: The Evolution of Leadership - Interview with Darby Vannier</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/292-fitb</link>
      <description>Join Pete as he speaks to Darby Vannier. Darby has over 20 year’s experience in leadership, development and consulting. They talk all about Darby’s passion for leadership, self-development, how business is all about evolution and how you can never really know what’s coming next in life; you just have to make the most of it.
  
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  Darby is what is called a ‘servant based leader’ which means how he leads people and the decision he makes are based around what affects people. He has always spent a lot of time trying to develop other people and help them advance in themselves and their careers. He believes in lifelong learning and always developing yourself.
 Understanding what a company believes and working somewhere he can make a difference is what draws Darby to a job role.
 Being friendly and establishing a high level of trust is how Darby builds strong relationships with his colleagues and staff. People know he is honest and fair. Seeing the success of the people he has developed and worked with gives him tremendous satisfaction.
 Fire in the belly to Darby, means having something inside of you that you can’t ignore, that you have to do something about.
 What makes a good leader? Darby believes that leadership is somebody who is compassionate, open to learning, who understands not everything will go perfectly, things aren’t always black and white and who is consistent whilst being great at building relationships. Most importantly, you have to form relationships and care to be a great leader.
 Leadership is constantly evolving. Like anything else in the world, we learn more about what works best with people and this also changes as culture changes. It’s important to keep up with the transformation and work with what changes.
 Darby is a firm believer that leaders are made not born.
   
 BEST MOMENTS 
  
 “I’m very passionate about people”
 “There is very few times in my career, I have had to fire somebody, I’d would much prefer develop them”
 “Leadership evolves”
 “Everything in our lives has some aspect of leadership”

      <itunes:summary>Join Pete as he speaks to Darby Vannier. Darby has over 20 year’s experience in leadership, development and consulting. They talk all about Darby’s passion for leadership, self-development, how business is all about evolution and how you can never really know what’s coming next in life; you just have to make the most of it.
  
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  Darby is what is called a ‘servant based leader’ which means how he leads people and the decision he makes are based around what affects people. He has always spent a lot of time trying to develop other people and help them advance in themselves and their careers. He believes in lifelong learning and always developing yourself.
 Understanding what a company believes and working somewhere he can make a difference is what draws Darby to a job role.
 Being friendly and establishing a high level of trust is how Darby builds strong relationships with his colleagues and staff. People know he is honest and fair. Seeing the success of the people he has developed and worked with gives him tremendous satisfaction.
 Fire in the belly to Darby, means having something inside of you that you can’t ignore, that you have to do something about.
 What makes a good leader? Darby believes that leadership is somebody who is compassionate, open to learning, who understands not everything will go perfectly, things aren’t always black and white and who is consistent whilst being great at building relationships. Most importantly, you have to form relationships and care to be a great leader.
 Leadership is constantly evolving. Like anything else in the world, we learn more about what works best with people and this also changes as culture changes. It’s important to keep up with the transformation and work with what changes.
 Darby is a firm believer that leaders are made not born.
   
 BEST MOMENTS 
  
 “I’m very passionate about people”
 “There is very few times in my career, I have had to fire somebody, I’d would much prefer develop them”
 “Leadership evolves”
 “Everything in our lives has some aspect of leadership”

      <title>E291: “Chronically Curious” – Sarah Noll Interview</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/chronically-curious-sarah-noll-interview</link>
      <description>I got completely inspired by this conversation with Sarah Noll Wilson, and I bet you will too. 
 Sarah is an executive coach, an author, and an entrepreneur with over 15 years’ experience in leadership roles. Beyond that, she has a creative background as she studied theatre in her undergrad. 
 In this episode, we talk about how she was diagnosed with panic disorder in 2013, and how that was the impetus for her to learn a multitude of coping mechanisms, including mindfulness techniques. 
 That experience truly set her on the path to writing the book, “Don’t Talk About the Elephant”, and informing her current style of coaching and way of being present with life. 
  
 KEY TAKEAWAYS- gratitude (and better coping mechanisms) to deal with stress are like muscles, it will be a while of in-depth practice before they get automatic.
  If you have problems with avoidance – avoiding conflict, avoiding challenging situations, etc. – the ability to observe it will help you deconstruct its power on you in those situations where it gets triggered. 
 A lot of adults raised in a Western, North American way don’t necessarily know who they are, because we’ve been conditioned to look at outside metrics, which confuses us on a deep level. To get back to ourselves, we need to learn how to be vulnerable. Vulnerability leads to authenticity. 
   
 BEST MOMENTS - “I know that I don't have myself figured out that I never will. Because, again, internally, externally, we're constantly evolving. I'm… not naive enough to know that. ‘Yeah, I've got it figured out.’ It's like, ‘oh, I got this figured out. And then I'll figure this out.’ And then I'll realize 10 more doors I need to go into.” 
   “What I learned in my work is, when we are talking about topics such as avoidance of connection, avoidance of conversations, avoidance of a vulnerability, it raises the emotional heat -- because the emotional heats already in the room. And so, what I've discovered in my work is sometimes when we can take a topic that's hard, and just give it a little lightness, a little playfulness, a little levity. It can make it easier for people to say, ‘oh, yeah, me too’.”
    “There's a beautiful mantra that I hold with me for my theater days. But it applies in these moments, which is have the discipline to learn the lines, and then have the faith to forget them. And the idea is like: ‘do your work to know your role, your part, your character at such a level that you don't have to worry about it… you can just be, you can just come from that moment.”

   “I don't want to talk about the weather. I want to talk about what's been hard or what's been amazing and to have people pause, and be heard and think in a way that they don't normally.”ABOUT THE GUEST 

  With 15+ years in leadership development, Sarah earned a Master of Science degree from Drake University in Leadership Development, and a Bachelor of Arts from the University of Northern Iowa in Theatre Performance. She is certified in co-active coaching, conversational intelligence, and is a frequent guest lecturer at universities. Sarah is an executive coach, a motivational speaker, and a specialist in helping people implement skills to overcome panic and ADHD. When she isn’t helping people build and rebuild relationships, she lives in Des Moines Iowa with her husband Nick. She enjoys playing games with Nick and cuddling with their two fur babies, Seymour and Sally.

      <title>E290: “The Lowest Point is Your Turning Point” -- Deirdre Macguire</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/the-lowest-point-is-your-turning-point-deirdre-mac</link>
      <description>Deirdre is a powerful human. When her father died by suicide 20 years ago, her grieving over his death turned into the impetus for following a deeply spiritual, healing path. She created the Stress Solution System from what she learned, an online course which has helped hundreds of people the world over – including herself. She is a cancer survivor, a student of humanity, and a fascinating person to spend an hour in conversation with. Please join us. 
  
 KEY TAKEAWAYS- we need to talk openly about the things we are ashamed of, to heal them. There is truly no human experience we can have that we should feel shame over.
  We have personal and communal freedom in how we choose to respond to the things that happen to us in our lives. If we can be intentional about our words and actions in moments of ‘stress’, we get to be who we are meant to be, which frees us and has a ripple effect outwards. 
 If we can do the ‘hard thing’, the thing that we aren’t familiar with, this can help strengthen us emotionally and physically. 
 Consistently ask yourself this question, ‘how do I want to show up in the world?’
   
 BEST MOMENTS - “I know happiness is a skill. That’s where the true freedom is because it’s something you can learn.”
  “The moral of the story is that such are the intricacies of our lives, that when they're woven together, it's impossible to say what's bad, and what's good. What if it's all good because it's all just happening?”
  “I have been dogged by perfectionism. I know today that perfectionism is the lowest form of leveling because you can never get there. I could never do anything. I was afraid to make a mistake. I was afraid to do it wrong. It was never good enough.”
  I'll say, you know, ‘where's your wife?’ And they will say ‘what? She's at home.’‘Do you love her? ‘Yeah, I love her very deeply.’ And I'll say, ‘well, she's not here. So, let's just clarify this is love about physical proximity?’ And of course, they are always answered no. Then I'm ready to go to the next step with them. And I will say, ‘what if love is a gift? That's the law. What if people come into our lives and they bring us a gift?’”ABOUT THE GUEST Deirdre Macguire is a world-class holistic mind-wellness expert and author based in Northern Ireland.

 She facilitates transformation at the deepest level in her consultations using the Stress Solution System, a process which she created.

      <itunes:summary>Deirdre is a powerful human. When her father died by suicide 20 years ago, her grieving over his death turned into the impetus for following a deeply spiritual, healing path. She created the Stress Solution System from what she learned, an online course which has helped hundreds of people the world over – including herself. She is a cancer survivor, a student of humanity, and a fascinating person to spend an hour in conversation with. Please join us. 
  
 KEY TAKEAWAYS- we need to talk openly about the things we are ashamed of, to heal them. There is truly no human experience we can have that we should feel shame over.
  We have personal and communal freedom in how we choose to respond to the things that happen to us in our lives. If we can be intentional about our words and actions in moments of ‘stress’, we get to be who we are meant to be, which frees us and has a ripple effect outwards. 
 If we can do the ‘hard thing’, the thing that we aren’t familiar with, this can help strengthen us emotionally and physically. 
 Consistently ask yourself this question, ‘how do I want to show up in the world?’
   
 BEST MOMENTS - “I know happiness is a skill. That’s where the true freedom is because it’s something you can learn.”
  “The moral of the story is that such are the intricacies of our lives, that when they're woven together, it's impossible to say what's bad, and what's good. What if it's all good because it's all just happening?”
  “I have been dogged by perfectionism. I know today that perfectionism is the lowest form of leveling because you can never get there. I could never do anything. I was afraid to make a mistake. I was afraid to do it wrong. It was never good enough.”
  I'll say, you know, ‘where's your wife?’ And they will say ‘what? She's at home.’‘Do you love her? ‘Yeah, I love her very deeply.’ And I'll say, ‘well, she's not here. So, let's just clarify this is love about physical proximity?’ And of course, they are always answered no. Then I'm ready to go to the next step with them. And I will say, ‘what if love is a gift? That's the law. What if people come into our lives and they bring us a gift?’”ABOUT THE GUEST Deirdre Macguire is a world-class holistic mind-wellness expert and author based in Northern Ireland.

      <title>E289: “I Want You to Become Your Brightest Hour” -- Susanne Danig Interview</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/i-want-you-to-become-your-brightest-hour-susanne-d</link>
      <description>I’m so excited to get the chance to introduce you to Susanne, a creative forced to be reckoned with. Susanne has been involved in some aspect of the arts for a long time – as a founder of an arts mentorship organization, coach, and producer. She also has experience organizing and running various festivals. In our conversation, we get deep into topics about spirituality, our souls’ journeys, and how we can use our own unique creative powers to get in touch with both. I hope you will join us, and hope you enjoy our discussion as much as I did.  
  
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  What determines us as human beings is how we embrace our difficulties and using them as lessons on how to become better people 
 Taking care of ourselves is being of service to others. We are of this world and aren’t separate from it, so what we do for ourselves we do for others. 
 Get your inspiration from wherever you can get it. 
 Make physical space for your curiosity – be intentional about questioning and learning and see what will grow.
   
 BEST MOMENTS “I look at it as being a channel of energy. I must perform in the way where I allow myself to be that channel, which means that…I must take care of myself to hold that space for people.” “I don’t believe in hierarchy because we are all on that level – on a spiritual level, we are all equal. It's like, we all have the capacity to open our hearts and minds. Of course, there's some training, there's an opening, there's an availability, that you allow yourself to be available for that kind of connection. And there's a training towards yourself.”“The conception we have a death is very limited. And for that reason, I know that I'm not afraid of dying because I know that there's something more to it.”“But I'm also very respectful of everyone’s own journey to finding the potential that they have inside of them. Because you can never judge another person's journey in life. So, I can give some instruments I can ask some questions.
 ABOUT THE GUEST 
 Susanne was born and raised in Copenhagen Denmark, though because of her love to travel she doesn’t feel attached to the identity of being “Danish”. As the founder of Danig Performing Arts Service, she is a performing arts producer, mentor, and management consultant with international expertise in creating festivals and developing arts institutions. Her life’s passion is helping artists discover their true potential, shine with clarity, and use their innovative power to tell inspirational stories She now works on an even deeper level to help them find their vibration, keep their vibration, and naturally fulfill their soul's purpose

      <title>E288: “Phoenix Rising” – Eileen Robertson-Hamra Interview</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/phoenix-rising-eileen-robertson-hamra-interview</link>
      <description>Eileen joins me today to talk about her journey surviving an event that no-one should have to – losing her husband and the father of three of her children in a plane crash just a few days before Christmas. In the months and years that followed Eileen became determined to find joy and purpose in her life following that tragedy, both for herself and as an example for her children. With her MBA in finance, she became an angel investor, using the money she gained through ethical capitalism to make a positive impact in the world. She is also a yogi, a holistic wellness and life coach, and an author. Her book Time to Fly was seven years in the making. She has since remarried to her second soulmate and she and her new husband completed their blended family with the birth of baby Zack a few years ago. I loved talking with Eileen about her process from businesswoman to host of coaching retreats and getting her particular spin on creativity and spirituality. I know you will, too. Please join us. 
  
 KEY TAKEAWAYS- your community is there to help you through hard times, if you can find the strength within yourself to ask for help. 
  Finding any purpose will get you out of bed. You can change your purpose later. Find something, in the wake of grief, to get you moving. - the deaths and painful moments we go through can be gifts, because we honor our loved ones and our pain through transforming our grief.”- when you find joy on the other side of grief, it is that much more tender and heart-opening.
  BEST MOMENTS “I’m not like a grief expert. I’m not going to write a 123 Agree with Me. I was like, ‘who’s going to want to hear my story?’”- “I think what I’d like to share is that grief keeps happening. And that’s a good thing. It’s a beautiful process to incorporate (Brian)’s memory into the present moment.”- “What I noticed in those moments, what was present for me was so much love. It was people reaching out. Every human being no matter even what they said, even if they said the wrong thing -- you know, they were doing it all out of love.”
  “The pain is right there for us to go through.”

      <itunes:summary>Eileen joins me today to talk about her journey surviving an event that no-one should have to – losing her husband and the father of three of her children in a plane crash just a few days before Christmas. In the months and years that followed Eileen became determined to find joy and purpose in her life following that tragedy, both for herself and as an example for her children. With her MBA in finance, she became an angel investor, using the money she gained through ethical capitalism to make a positive impact in the world. She is also a yogi, a holistic wellness and life coach, and an author. Her book Time to Fly was seven years in the making. She has since remarried to her second soulmate and she and her new husband completed their blended family with the birth of baby Zack a few years ago. I loved talking with Eileen about her process from businesswoman to host of coaching retreats and getting her particular spin on creativity and spirituality. I know you will, too. Please join us. 
  
 KEY TAKEAWAYS- your community is there to help you through hard times, if you can find the strength within yourself to ask for help. 
  Finding any purpose will get you out of bed. You can change your purpose later.

      <title>E287: “The Efficiency Expert” – Jeff Finney Interview</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/the-efficiency-expert-jeff-finney-interview</link>
      <description>Jeff owns and runs his own wood-working business, which he started in his garage and quickly grew to over 60 employees. He began to evaluate his growth, wondering how he could make better use of his time after a few years. The observations he made about his processes, both as a CEO and as a boss, had him realize that the lessons he learned could be transposed to every business, and help more than just the people in his industry. 
 One of his mantras is that once you see waste, you can’t unsee it. His life’s work is about teaching people how to run their businesses where they won’t burn out or lose passion for the initial seed of inspiration that got them started in the first place.  
  
 KEY TAKEAWAYS- listen to your trusted wing-people about your direction as a business owner. Sometimes they can see things that you can’t. 
  Delegation can save you time and make you money. 
 What does your business look like when you’re not in it? That’s its value. If you can start thinking about how it would run without you, then you can see where its strengths and flaws are.
 Even the things you “have to do” to run your business can become “want to”s. The more “want tos” you have in your business, the more successful you will be. If you don’t have many, you can rethink how and why you are in the business you are in.

  BEST MOMENTS - “It’s better to do one thing at a time, all the way through those five steps, 100 times, rather than doing it 100 times through each step.  You’ll end up being significantly more efficient at the end of the day.”
   “A vision is such a great start because it’s your ‘yes/no’ to every question that comes along. ‘Should we take this contract? Yes or no’, ‘does it get us closer to our vision’…it’s a four-step process once you get your vision, you figure it out, you start delegating…. then working on (the) automation steps that are redundant, then looking at the value of your business…that’s where I need to put your focus.”
 “There’s something about being an educator…I like being that guy (that other people come to for advice). If the book’s changed someone else’s experience, then it’s made the past two years worthwhile.”
 “We go through a lot of products…and that product being on our balance sheet all the time is cash. As soon as you cut it up, it doesn’t have a lot of value. That grey area there between the beginning and the end, (we want to make that shorter).”

      <title>E286: “The Importance of the Unlearning” – Cathy Dimarchos Interview</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/the-importance-of-the-unlearning-cathy-dimarchos-i</link>
      <description>I love what I do because it brings me into contact with people like Cathy. She is a force of nature – an indefatigable force for good and accountability in the world, someone who has goals of sustainability and equity always in the forefront of her mind. 
 In this hour or so of our conversation, we talk about how she founded her own business, Solutions 2 You, when many others are figuring out how to retire. She shares about her time in Africa and how her experiences there taught her that even the smallest interaction can change a person’s life forever. When she came back, she wanted to use her background in the business world to make a measurable difference. Our conversation is about how to create a business that makes change, but it is also about spirituality, service, resiliency, and accountability. 
 It filled my cup and I hope it fills yours.
 
 KEY TAKEAWAYS- look for the joy in the very small things. You don’t need a certain accomplishment or dollar amount to be happy. 
  Look for the ways you can be of service to someone else, every day. 
 You will make mistakes every day and you can learn something new every day. Don’t hold yourself back from taking those lessons, wherever you may find them. It may come from someone older, or someone younger. 
 If you are completely present in the moment, each action you take will be the right one. 

  BEST MOMENTS 
  “Almost everything I do comes back to: ‘is this going to get me closer to where I need to be or is it detracting from what that end goal is.’ That’s the question I ask constantly, together ‘what else’.”
 “It’s all about acceptance and understanding we all have biases…but it’s to catch ourselves in those moments, to be present for who I’m with. Honoring you and understanding what you’re willing to share with me, but not necessarily having to agree with you.” 
 “I continuously look back and check in on myself, to make sure that I don’t actually follow the same sort of patterns, to be more aware, to really listen in.”
 Sustainability is a key part – which is why it’s so important to know what it is you’re wanting to achieve. If you don’t know that, it’s a perpetual hamster wheel….’yes, I’ve received that monetary amount, now what?’”
  ABOUT THE GUEST 
 Cathy Dimarchos had spent over 35 years in the finance industry when her daughter, who was in her gap year between high school and university, decided to spend some time in Tanzania, volunteering. Cathy went for a visit six weeks later and ended up staying 18 months. When she returned home, she changed her life, and Solutions 2 You was born. Solutions 2 You strives to provide strategic business guidance, leadership and mentoring to small business owners and individuals, helping them achieve sustainable growth. Solutions 2 You is also the platform of her pet project, Raise the Baseline. https://www.solutions2you.com.au/raise-the-baseline, in which she aims to raise the standard of living for each child. 
  
 Beyond her background in business, philanthropy, and entrepreneurship, Cathy has authored several books, is a public speaker, and is a wife and mother. She lives in Australia.

      <title>E285: You Know Everything Until You Don’t” – Mary McGuigan Interview</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/285-fitb</link>
      <description>Mary’s and my conversation was unexpected and informative. She decided to change her career after she’d had children, when she realized that she wanted to feel more noticed in her life, both by others and by herself. She had always had a passion for color and adventure and followed her heart into starting a new business as an image and wardrobe consultant. While she tapped into the psychology behind dressing well, there is a presence in her, an authenticity and attitude of service towards her clients, that sets her apart. I hope you’ll join us.
  
  
  
 KEY TAKEAWAYS- It’s good to know the rules, but it’s also good to know when to toss the rules and go by your instincts. You learn the difference through practice.
  Dress for the life that you want, not the life that you have. It’s a well-known adage for a reason – it helps to reset your self-confidence on a subliminal level.
 Vibrationally, visibility is opportunity. When someone comes and taps your shoulder…that all has to do with visibility.”
 There is no timeline for any part of your life. You realize things when you realize things. 

  BEST MOMENTS 
  “Every client that I’ve had, I’ve always had something in common with them, we’ve always been aligned in some way.” 

 “Colors help other people see you at your best.”
 “Your loved ones know when you’ve made (an effort). It doesn’t matter what you’re wearing, they can see when the effort is being made.” 

 “I don’t think there are enough Madonnas in the world. You can change that name to Beyonces, Nicki Minajs, whatever you want to change that name to. Culturally, women are shyer, they’re more withdrawn, they don’t boast about their achievements. I wanted to help more women be seen in the world.”
   
 ABOUT THE GUEST 
  
 Mary is a former accountant who realized that she needed to change careers because she had always felt invisible.
  
 When she looked through her journal, she realized that two words kept recurring in her writing: colour, and image.
  
 Given her experience in hospitality and other parts of the service industry, and her desire to help women gain confidence in their lives, she found her fit (pun intended) as a personal stylist and wardrobe consultant. She lives in Northern Ireland with her family.

        <![CDATA[<p>Mary’s and my conversation was unexpected and informative. She decided to change her career after she’d had children, when she realized that she wanted to feel more noticed in her life, both by others and by herself. <br><br>She had always had a passion for color and adventure and followed her heart into starting a new business as an image and wardrobe consultant. <br><br>While she tapped into the psychology behind dressing well, there is a presence in her, an authenticity and attitude of service towards her clients, that sets her apart. <br><br>I hope you’ll join us.</p> <p> </p> <p> </p> <p> </p> <p><strong>KEY TAKEAWAYS<br></strong><br>- It’s good to know the rules, but it’s also good to know when to toss the rules and go by your instincts. You learn the difference through practice.</p> <ul> <li>Dress for the life that you want, not the life that you have. It’s a well-known adage for a reason – it helps to reset your self-confidence on a subliminal level.</li> <li>Vibrationally, visibility is opportunity. When someone comes and taps your shoulder…that all has to do with visibility.”</li> <li>There is no timeline for any part of your life. You realize things when you realize things. <br><br>
</li> </ul> <p><strong>BEST MOMENTS <br><br></strong></p> <ul> <li>“Every client that I’ve had, I’ve always had something in common with them, we’ve always been aligned in some way.” <br><br>
</li> <li>“Colors help other people see you at your best.”</li> <li>“Your loved ones know when you’ve made (an effort). It doesn’t matter what you’re wearing, they can see when the effort is being made.” <br><br>
</li> <li>“I don’t think there are enough Madonnas in the world. You can change that name to Beyonces, Nicki Minajs, whatever you want to change that name to. Culturally, women are shyer, they’re more withdrawn, they don’t boast about their achievements. I wanted to help more women be seen in the world.”</li> </ul> <p> </p> <p><strong>ABOUT THE GUEST </strong></p> <p><strong> </strong></p> <p>Mary is a former accountant who realized that she needed to change careers because she had always felt invisible.</p> <p> </p> <p>When she looked through her journal, she realized that two words kept recurring in her writing: colour, and image.</p> <p> </p> <p>Given her experience in hospitality and other parts of the service industry, and her desire to help women gain confidence in their lives, she found her fit (pun intended) as a personal stylist and wardrobe consultant. <br><br>She lives in Northern Ireland with her family.</p> <p><strong> </strong></p> <p><strong>CONTACT METHOD<br><br></strong>Corporate and Creative Image on Facebook <a href="https://www.facebook.com/corporateandcreativeimage/">https://www.facebook.com/corporateandcreativeimage/</a></p> <p><br>Twitter <a href="https://twitter.com/MaryMcGStylist">https://twitter.com/MaryMcGStylist</a><br><br>CCI’s website <a href="https://corporate-creative-image.business.site/">https://corporate-creative-image.business.site/</a></p> <p><br>CCI on Instagram <a href="https://www.instagram.com/corporateandcreativeimage/">https://www.instagram.com/corporateandcreativeimage/</a></p> <p><br>Mary on LinkedIn <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/mary-mcguigan-%F0%9F%8C%88-87a856a9/?originalSubdomain=uk">https://www.linkedin.com/in/mary-mcguigan-%F0%9F%8C%88-87a856a9/?originalSubdomain=uk</a><br><br>Mary’s TedX talk <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p3-uO93PM7Q&amp;ab_channel=TEDxTalks">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p3-uO93PM7Q&amp;ab_channel=TEDxTalks</a></p> <p> </p> <p> </p> <p><strong><br></strong><br>LinkedIn, Instagram</p> <p> </p> <p> </p> <p> </p> <p> </p> <p><strong>ABOUT THE HOST </strong></p> <p>The ‘Mighty Pete Lonton’ from the ‘Mighty 247’ company is your main host of ‘Fire in The Belly’.</p> <p>Pete is an entrepreneur, mentor, coach, property Investor, and father of three beautiful girls.

      <title>E284: “Dreaming about Swimming” – With Ryan Rae Harbuck</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/284-fitb</link>
      <description>The thing with life-changing accidents is that they change you, forever. And when you’re a teenager and are paralysed after a head-on car crash, if you are lucky enough to wake up, you find yourself at a crossroadMy guest for this episode, Ryan Rae Harbuck, found herself at this exact place. And whether it’s because she describes herself as having a “stubborn” personality, or being a lifelong athlete, she made the decision early on that she would do what she could to get back to the life that she wanted to live, to do the things she had always wanted to do. She has been insistent about creating meaning from what others may characterise as her “worst moments”, and has lived a focused, intentional life full of personal meaning. 
 As an adult, she’s had a career as a teacher – first as a high school sciences teacher, then as a swim coach – personally, I think this helps her distill the lessons she’s learned into perfectly-contained stories. 
 Please join me and get to know Ryan, who is one of the funniest, determined, most optimistic people I’ve ever met.  
  
 KEY TAKEAWAYS- to be free, you need to find a way to accept that you can’t change the way others perceive you. 
  You are worthy of the life that you want; just through your lived experience, you have something to teach others. 
 The meaning that you make out of the things that happen to you doesn’t have to make sense to anyone else. 
 If you’re doing something that you really want to do – it won’t matter if you fail. If the regret is taken out of it, all that can come out of it is joy.
  
 BEST MOMENTS - “My body is different, so I need to swim differently. I would say that it took about a dozen years -- that I needed to change things in the pool if I wanted to get more out of it.”
  “We shouldn’t have to have bad things happen to us in order to do good things.” 

 “Being a mom means a lot of yourself…it doesn’t get taken away, but it evolves a little bit, and so I don’t think I have a lot of things that I would call my own.” 

 “Everything that we have is (really) precious; that comes down to the people in our lives, the days that we’re given, the nature – every single piece of it. And wanting to be the best for every bit of it.” 

  
 ABOUT THE GUEST 
 Ryan was born and raised in Colorado. She recently completed and self-published her memoir, “When I Grow Up, I Want to Be a Chair”. When she was 16 years old, she was involved in a serious car accident that left her paralyzed from the chest down. 
 As she began the recovery process, she realized had an advantage as an athlete – she was used to practicing something and improving over time.
  
 She faced her physical recovery the same way -- practicing her rehabilitation until she was able to get back to the things she loved to do, and the life she wanted to lead.From that moment, she understood she could focus on building an intentional life. 
 Ryan is a wife and mother, a swim coach, a teacher, a motivational speaker, and an outdoor enthusiast.

      <title>E283: “Life is a Michelin-Starred Buffet” –  Payman Lorenzo Interview</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/life-is-a-michelin-starred-buffet-payman-lorenzo-i</link>
      <description>This week’s guest is passionate – about life, about the role of business in creating positive change in the world, about making every day an adventure. Payman seems like he’s done everything. He has lived in several countries, speaks several languages, is self-employed, and is excited about being alive. We talk about life being a series of spiritual lessons, what you can and can’t control, about making your life impactful in the ways it can be. 
  
 KEY TAKEAWAYS- Inspiration can happen anywhere including in the most “regular” occurrences like washing dishes; you need to be willing to follow it whenever it calls. - Happiness is nobody’s responsibility but our own. We have a responsibility to our own souls to find and create our own. 
  Your dreams are often a long-term investment. It’s like a baby, you must feed it and care for it before it begins to pay off. Keep the goal in sight. 
 


  BEST MOMENTS “I see life as a buffet…I want to try as many dishes as possible.” “Follow your heart, follow something that…keeps it alive, makes it stronger day by day and minute by minute. That’s where the magic happens.” “We all need to make money, but let’s do it in a way that’s meaningful, impactful and purposeful.” “I’m not afraid of dying. I’m not saying that I want to die today, but that I know when this life is over, it’s not game over.”
 
 ABOUT THE GUEST 
  
 Payman is a serial entrepreneur who has lived in 10 countries on four continents. He speaks six languages. He is the founder of a movement called Leaders with a Heart and the podcast of the same name. He fully believes that capitalism can be a force for good and helps his clients build their businesses with a heart, a mission, and a purpose. Payman’s specialty is in e-commerce, but he is also launching a brand of products made from sustainable leather. He has made a commitment to donate one pair of eyeglasses to a person in need for each unit sold. He has an associate degree in international business from Seneca College in Ontario Canada and is self-employed as a marketing consultant.

      <itunes:summary>This week’s guest is passionate – about life, about the role of business in creating positive change in the world, about making every day an adventure. Payman seems like he’s done everything. He has lived in several countries, speaks several languages, is self-employed, and is excited about being alive. We talk about life being a series of spiritual lessons, what you can and can’t control, about making your life impactful in the ways it can be. 
  
 KEY TAKEAWAYS- Inspiration can happen anywhere including in the most “regular” occurrences like washing dishes; you need to be willing to follow it whenever it calls. - Happiness is nobody’s responsibility but our own. We have a responsibility to our own souls to find and create our own. 
  Your dreams are often a long-term investment. It’s like a baby, you must feed it and care for it before it begins to pay off. Keep the goal in sight. 
 


  BEST MOMENTS “I see life as a buffet…I want to try as many dishes as possible.” “Follow your heart, follow something that…keeps it alive, makes it stronger day by day and minute by minute. That’s where the magic happens.” “We all need to make money, but let’s do it in a way that’s meaningful, impactful and purposeful.” “I’m not afraid of dying. I’m not saying that I want to die today, but that I know when this life is over, it’s not game over.”

      <title>E282: “Give Yourself Permission” Nic Aguirre of Apex Mind Coaching</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/282-fitb</link>
      <description>Nic calls himself the “high performance hypnotist”.
 In our conversation we talk about his quest for a deeper meaning and how an inner restlessness took him into the halls of academia. One day, he was invited to go see a hypnotist at a show and became so fascinated by what he watched that he began to study it in every spare minute. Slowly he began to transition to his true calling, coaching others to achieve their personal and professional goals – wherever they are feeling stuck – and helping them to blast through the rock of their habits.
  
 KEY TAKEAWAYS- there are concrete, measurable steps you can take to achieve your dreams – take notes from people who have already achieved what you want, see what they are doing differently than you, and plan to close that gap.
  Hypnosis helps to relax you to go layers below the conscious, critical mind so that new “programming” can be set and help you overcome the obstacles that have been in your way.
 To become the person you want to be, think about other times you’ve solved other problems for yourself. What are the qualities you have that helped you solve that past problem? How could those same qualities help you cross the next bridge?
   BEST MOMENTS - “A big part of what I do is ‘see it, believe it, become it’.”
  “I’m human, you’re human, I do have those holes in me, I talked about the career void and that purpose hole that’s in there…but what happens when you finally fill that hole is you discover that there was another hole next to or underneath that one…the difference now I now feel equipped to handle it.”
 “Consider the advice but then check your gut…. does your body align with it, do you vibe with that?”
 “What is the challenge that makes you who you are and who are you on the other side of that?”

      <title>E281: The Door We Call God – Jeffery C. Olsen Interview</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/281-fitb</link>
      <description>I don’t think it’s hyperbole to say that Jeffery is one of the most humbling guests we’ve ever had on the show. He has taken one of the most tragic things that can happen to a fellow human – the death of half of his family in a devastating car crash – and let him lead him on a journey of healing and trying to help the world. In our conversation, he goes into detail about his experiences after the accident, and how he realised that we might be living heaven on earth. Jeffery has a sense of humour and humility and beyond that, he is a shining example of radical hope and acceptance in action.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS- if we could consider each other as part of the human family and aim to care for one another and work through our disagreements rather than shutting each other out, we could heal so much of what feels so disconnected in the world. - choosing joy is just that: a choice. It might be difficult at first and feel very counter-intuitive, but joy is like a muscle. It gets stronger with practice. - listening can be one of the most spiritual experiences and services you can do. It requires complete presence to be with another person and not be fast-forwarding until the point where you get to talk. - replace the word “devil” with “ego”. “Get behind me, ego.”
 BEST MOMENTS (Jeffrey’s personal mantra) “I am a powerful, loving manifestation of the divine creator”.
 “Wisdom is intelligence applied. I have the knowing, but have I done anything about it?”
 “I don’t claim that I can go about healing people with cancer…but I do claim to go about and love them and walk with them as they go and deal with whatever their journey is, which is perfect, even if it looks completely different than mine or anyone else’s.”
 “I don’t know if anything is out of order; I think there is a divine order to all of it, if I’m willing to see it, open my eyes and see it.”
 ABOUT THE GUEST Jeffery was born and raised in the Rocky Mountains of Utah. He is an author, a speaker, a creative director, a spiritual keeper, and a shaman. Most importantly, he considers himself a man, a human being, who tries to be of service in the ways he can. In 1997, Jeff and his whole family (his wife and two young boys) were in a car accident. His wife and one of his children were killed on impact, and Jeff himself was seriously injured – a small selection of what he dealt with was a broken back, his left leg needing to be amputated above the knee, and a collapsed lung. But before he knew what his road to recovery would entail, he left his body and crossed over to the other side, where he was told he had to go back. From that moment, Jeffery was set on a spiritual path. He studied every tradition he could think of, and in his speeches and one-on-one mentoring work, he tries to help people cross over to the other side of their own obstacles. Beyond his public speaking and his individual coaching, Jeff is a best-selling author of several books. He has spent his life in the pursuit of joy and spiritual freedom. He has remarried and enjoys being a family man.

It might be difficult at first and feel very counter-intuitive, but joy is like a muscle. It gets stronger with practice. - listening can be one of the most spiritual experiences and services you can do. It requires complete presence to be with another person and not be fast-forwarding until the point where you get to talk. - replace the word “devil” with “ego”. “Get behind me, ego.”
 BEST MOMENTS (Jeffrey’s personal mantra) “I am a powerful, loving manifestation of the divine creator”.
 “Wisdom is intelligence applied. I have the knowing, but have I done anything about it?”
 “I don’t claim that I can go about healing people with cancer…but I do claim to go about and love them and walk with them as they go and deal with whatever their journey is, which is perfect, even if it looks completely different than mine or anyone else’s.”
 “I don’t know if anything is out of order; I think there is a divine order to all of it, if I’m willing to see it, open my eyes and see it.”
 ABOUT THE GUEST Jeffery was born and raised in the Rocky Mountains of Utah. He is an author, a speaker, a creative director, a spiritual keeper, and a shaman. Most importantly, he considers himself a man, a human being, who tries to be of service in the ways he can. In 1997, Jeff and his whole family (his wife and two young boys) were in a car accident. His wife and one of his children were killed on impact, and Jeff himself was seriously injured – a small selection of what he dealt with was a broken back, his left leg needing to be amputated above the knee, and a collapsed lung. But before he knew what his road to recovery would entail, he left his body and crossed over to the other side, where he was told he had to go back. From that moment, Jeffery was set on a spiritual path. He studied every tradition he could think of, and in his speeches and one-on-one mentoring work, he tries to help people cross over to the other side of their own obstacles. Beyond his public speaking and his individual coaching, Jeff is a best-selling author of several books. He has spent his life in the pursuit of joy and spiritual freedom. He has remarried and enjoys being a family man.

      <title>E280: “Listen to Those What Ifs ” – Ani Rich Interview</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/listen-to-those-what-ifs-ani-rich-interview</link>
      <description>Ani and I have a fascinating conversation about life, purpose, and honesty. She will be the first to tell you that she wants to get better at certain things, but truly she is incredibly focused, loving, and real about her path and the ways she wants to connect with other humans. She has an easy gentleness about her, a joy, and an energy that fills the room. This conversation will fill your cup. 
 
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  Finding out the things that makes you feel balanced and at ease, even if they’re not shared by anyone else you know, you need to hang on to those and nurture them. 
 If I don’t accept that I have certain triggers, then I’m not truly seeing myself.
 When we are going through emotional pain, why do we think we can bounce back the next day? 
 Our children are our mirrors. Other humans are our mirrors. 

  BEST MOMENTS “I can have compassion (for someone), but still be detached from their pain. And because I am detached from their pain, I can create a safe space for them….so then, it’s about them and not me.”
 “Pema Chodron says every time you catch (yourself) judging someone, just say ‘just like me’. ...it removes the judgment. You have to fully let it go and try to see it from their eyes.” 
 “We need to balance being and becoming.” 
 “At some point I wanted to believe my own life, so I became curious.” 
  
 ABOUT THE GUEST Ani Rich is a mother, a wife, a yoga teacher and author and a life coach. On top of all that, she hosts her own podcast, Intuitively Rich.

      <title>E279: “Have Compassion for What it Means to Be a Human Being” – Nadjeschda Taranczewski Interview</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/279-fitb</link>
      <description>Nadja is not your run-of-the-mill life coach. She has a gritty optimism, a determination to take all the things that have happened to her clients and show them ways to work through it, one by one changing the world. Her background as half German, a quarter Russian, and a quarter Polish, has made her want to shine lights on the traumatized parts of our human emotions so that they can fully heal.
 Our conversation encompasses the energetic power of money, how our subconscious fears control our emotions and how we can break free, and how remaining hopeful can be the most rebellious act of them all. Please join us. 
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  Build habits until it becomes second nature.
 
Be present enough to really listen to someone else’s story. Go deeper than the surface level and watch how the person you’re listening to responds – find the place that they are trying to hide from themselves and from you.
 There is something about supporting people in their inner work process that has changed in the past generation; it can be a benefit to employers because you can show them improved productivity if their employees’ mental health is taken care of.
 What are some of your core needs that weren’t met in childhood that you could look at and be mindful of to give yourself freedom?
  BEST MOMENTS “If people are not in connection with themselves, if they can’t feel themselves, if there is no self-compassion, then there cannot be any compassion with another human being, not really. People who are so disconnected from themselves and others are capable of the most atrocious things. What people have done to each other over the course of history is just mindboggling. The only way to prevent that from happening is to make people more conscious, to help people feel.”
 “Part of human evolution means we keep on telling the same stories.”
 “Ultimately I don’t think humans are as complicated as we think we are…. your brain gets so fast at picking up the right pieces of information that it then boils down to you feeling that it’s an immediate reaction I had to it.”
 “I’m delighted to see that there is a generational jump in consciousness that I can very clearly see. Connection to self, the rejection of the patterns and demands of patriarchy, the rejection of all definitions of success, that ‘rejection of more is always better.’”
  
 ABOUT THE GUEST Nadjeschda Taranczewski (Nadja) has a master’s in psychology and is a master certified Coach with a 20-year track record as a coach, author, and keynote speaker. She is the author of the book “Conscious You: Become the Hero of Your Own Story” and is currently working on her second, “The Conscious Tribe Playbook”.
  
 Her company Conscious U facilitates collective transformation through blended learning coaching programs that enable consciousness development on all levels of an organization.
  
 She loves to draw and cook and loves to host gatherings at her house with her wife of 20 years.

 “Ultimately I don’t think humans are as complicated as we think we are…. your brain gets so fast at picking up the right pieces of information that it then boils down to you feeling that it’s an immediate reaction I had to it.”
 “I’m delighted to see that there is a generational jump in consciousness that I can very clearly see. Connection to self, the rejection of the patterns and demands of patriarchy, the rejection of all definitions of success, that ‘rejection of more is always better.’”

        <![CDATA[<p>Nadja is not your run-of-the-mill life coach. She has a gritty optimism, a determination to take all the things that have happened to her clients and show them ways to work through it, one by one changing the world. Her background as half German, a quarter Russian, and a quarter Polish, has made her want to shine lights on the traumatized parts of our human emotions so that they can fully heal.</p> <p>Our conversation encompasses the energetic power of money, how our subconscious fears control our emotions and how we can break free, and how remaining hopeful can be the most rebellious act of them all. Please join us. <br><br></p> <p><strong>KEY TAKEAWAYS<br></strong></p> <ul> <li>Build habits until it becomes second nature.</li> <li>
<br>Be present enough to really listen to someone else’s story. Go deeper than the surface level and watch how the person you’re listening to responds – find the place that they are trying to hide from themselves and from you.</li> <li>There is something about supporting people in their inner work process that has changed in the past generation; it can be a benefit to employers because you can show them improved productivity if their employees’ mental health is taken care of.</li> <li>What are some of your core needs that weren’t met in childhood that you could look at and be mindful of to give yourself freedom?</li> </ul> <p><strong>BEST MOMENTS <br><br></strong>“If people are not in connection with themselves, if they can’t feel themselves, if there is no self-compassion, then there cannot be any compassion with another human being, not really. People who are so disconnected from themselves and others are capable of the most atrocious things. What people have done to each other over the course of history is just mindboggling. The only way to prevent that from happening is to make people more conscious, to help people feel.”</p> <p>“Part of human evolution means we keep on telling the same stories.”</p> <p>“Ultimately I don’t think humans are as complicated as we think we are…. your brain gets so fast at picking up the right pieces of information that it then boils down to you feeling that it’s an immediate reaction I had to it.”</p> <p>“I’m delighted to see that there is a generational jump in consciousness that I can very clearly see.

      <title>E278: “What if There’s Nothing Wrong?” Speaking with Dr. Alison J Kay</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/278-fitb</link>
      <description>Alison is a fascinating person to spend an hour with. She has spent a lot of her life abroad, studying different religions and along the way learning yoga and meditation. She has been an energy healer with a specific understanding about how chakras play a role in our physical, emotional, and spiritual health. We chat about her travels, how to live a life of authentic adventure, and how to be the most potent and fierce version of ourselves. Please join us.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS- we must be careful of the messages we tell ourselves because so much of what we do embeds itself in our subconscious, which then directs our decisions.
  Sometimes, in life, people won’t be ready for you, and that’s okay.
 As human beings the world wants us to know who we are, to be fully realized versions of ourselves, and to succeed.
 The best healing can happen in silence.
  BEST MOMENTS “It is our consciousness that’s going to change everything.”“I like a balance between rationalism and heart and rationalism…I don’t spend a lot of time distinguishing between the spirit, soul, and higher self.”
 “When we know the answer to something, we get that kudos – so we live in that paradigm; but for ourselves to come out of our habits or our routines that aren’t healthy for us, asking questions, not knowing, and allowing ourselves to be wrong are key tools.”“95% of our daily choices are made from the back-of-the-house consciousness. We don’t say, once we learn how to drive, “put the car into reverse”, we just do it. It gets lodged into the subconscious once we learn. We are making 95% of our choices from this habituated, non-conscious mind place. The more we can clear out that unconscious, locked-down energy that happens from belief…the more mindful we can be about our choices, the more choices we have.”
  
 ABOUT THE GUEST Alison J Kay is a pioneer in the field of energy medicine, who has spent most of her life living abroad from the U.S., studying various spiritual traditions. 
 She has been internationally recognized for her work as an energy healer, and for the past 25 years, has been a master mind/body energy medicine practitioner, and a yoga and meditation teacher.
 She is the creator and founder of the Vibration UPgrade™️ system of spiritual coaching on top of providing one-on-one coaching sessions to clients living all over the world. 
 Beyond that, she has been the host of “Create Your Best Life Ever”, which was ranked in the top-5 of shows on Voice America’s Empowerment channel, as well as the best-selling author of three books – so far.

      <title>E277: The Road to Recovery Lead Me to My Purpose in Life – Speaking with John Giordano</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/277-fitb</link>
      <description>In this honest and engaging episode Pete speaks to addiction, trauma and recovery expert John Giordano. John is also an author and created the G &amp; G Holistic Addiction Treatment in North Miami Beach, Florida. They talk about John’s journey to recovery, when he decided it was his purpose to help others and what his plans are for the future.
  
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  It was by no accident that John Giordano chose addiction treatment as his life’s work. Growing up the son of a heroin dealer and trying to cope with the trauma of being molested as a young boy, he fell hard into drugs and alcohol. Over thirty-five years ago, at the urging of his family, John entered rehab. He emerged a changed man - committed to helping others afflicted by this hideous disease.
 There is such a thing as an ‘addiction’ gene. This doesn’t mean that if you have it you will become an addict but it does highly influence the likelihood it will be triggered, especially if you have a difficult life.
 John started practicing martial arts and it changed his life completely. He left the gang life he had slipped into and put all of his trauma and anger into martial arts. It taught him discipline, focus and how to direct his energy.
 After having a difficult start to recovery in rehab, John eventually broke down. This is when his road to recovery truly started. He then decided he wanted to become a counselor himself so he went back to high school to get his GED and the rest is history.
 John truly believes that no matter what has happened to you in life or where you came from you can find happiness and success. You just have to never give up. Listen to yourself and your inner voice.
 John has done everything he has just to help others. It’s never been about money or notoriety, he just wants to help people live the lives they deserve. He doesn’t take credit when people manage to get clean as he recognises it is them that have done the work to do so, he has just offered guidance.
   
 BEST MOMENTS 
  
 “No matter where you come from, no matter what education, no matter what happened to you in life, what family you had, you can be successful as long as you never give up”
  
 “I never chased the money, all I wanted to do was help people and it changed my life, it changed a lot of peoples lives”
  
 ABOUT THE GUEST
 John GiordanoAddiction, Trauma and Recovery Expert - MAC,  DHL, CAP, Certified Hypnotherapist, Author, Entrepreneur
 John Giordano, who himself is in long-term recovery, is an addiction expert whose career spans over thirty-years. John’s passion for helping people shined through early in life as a Karate instructor – and continued later as he helped literally thousands of addicts find their path of recovery at his former treatment center.

Over thirty-five years ago, at the urging of his family, John entered rehab. He emerged a changed man - committed to helping others afflicted by this hideous disease.
 There is such a thing as an ‘addiction’ gene. This doesn’t mean that if you have it you will become an addict but it does highly influence the likelihood it will be triggered, especially if you have a difficult life.
 John started practicing martial arts and it changed his life completely. He left the gang life he had slipped into and put all of his trauma and anger into martial arts. It taught him discipline, focus and how to direct his energy.
 After having a difficult start to recovery in rehab, John eventually broke down. This is when his road to recovery truly started. He then decided he wanted to become a counselor himself so he went back to high school to get his GED and the rest is history.
 John truly believes that no matter what has happened to you in life or where you came from you can find happiness and success. You just have to never give up. Listen to yourself and your inner voice.
 John has done everything he has just to help others. It’s never been about money or notoriety, he just wants to help people live the lives they deserve. He doesn’t take credit when people manage to get clean as he recognises it is them that have done the work to do so, he has just offered guidance.
   
 BEST MOMENTS 
  
 “No matter where you come from, no matter what education, no matter what happened to you in life, what family you had, you can be successful as long as you never give up”
  
 “I never chased the money, all I wanted to do was help people and it changed my life, it changed a lot of peoples lives”

      <title>E276: “Mentorship is Empowerment” – EA Csolkovits Interview</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/276-fitb</link>
      <description>For someone so successful on paper, EA Csolkovits is an incredibly humble human being, who ascribes most of his success to his mentors being generous with their knowledge in the beginning. 
 He is a wonderful storyteller and shares with us how he realised early that he “wanted more from life” and did not know how to get it. Through paying attention to the advice he was given as a teenager, he had made his first million by the time he was 23, and has made giving back – financially, to his community – a key part of his success. He has a unique perspective on what success is and how you can become both spiritually and materially successful. 
 KEY TAKEAWAYS1) Before becoming his advisor, and as a condition of doing so, one of his mentors made him promise that once he was able to, he would begin to give to others. 
  get yourself a mentor. A coach is removed from “the scene” and therefore has a better view of what’s happening and how you can improve. 
   Be responsible about how you react. For example: If you’re in the hospital and you’re given medication and it isn’t working, they say ‘the patient is reacting”. If the medication is working, they’ll say ‘the patient is responsive’. Be responsive to challenges. 
   If people take advantage of you when you’re a giver, *they* are diminished, not you. 
   
 BEST MOMENTS 
  “You’ll never have a money problem; you’ll have an idea problem.” 
 “(Don’t worry about getting the answers to your life’s biggest questions), focus on asking the right questions, and you’ll get the right answers.” 
 “Don’t say the word failure. Supplant it. Use the (phrase) ‘temporary defeat’. Even the word has an internal ring….When you use the word ‘failure’, you’re throwing yourself out of the game. Stay in the game.” 
 “Teach discernment in relationships. We don’t label people, we label deeds….And that distinction, I’ve seen have a huge impact on people’s lives.” 
   
 ABOUT THE GUEST 
  E.A. Csolkovits is the son of a milkman. When he was 16, he had a job as a janitor, and ended up working for the first person who would become a mentor to him, a relationship that would shape and guide the rest of his life. He made his first million by the time he was 23. He has spent most of his business career learning from mentors and teaching others what he was taught. He also founded Givers University.

      <title>E275: “Capable, Powerful, Possible” -Jaclyn Gallo Interview</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/275-fitb</link>
      <description>This is an incredible conversation with someone who is completely grounded and clear in her passion and her purpose. Jaclyn runs her own coaching business, hosts the Spark Your Light podcast, is a powerful speaker, and is zeroed in on the intersection of spirituality, manifestation, and psychology. Come along with me on this ride of an episode where we get to meet Jaclyn and get inspired by her inimitable perspective on life. 
  
 KEY TAKEAWAYS- Start where you are: if you want to become a millionaire but you’re $50,000 in debt, Jaclyn might suggest to working with an affirmation where you notice how easily money finds you, and then noting it down on an “evidence list” so that your brain can start noticing and attuning its filters for abundance. - Creators need silence to produce their best ideas. 
  Sometimes the only person who will believe in your idea is you. But if you keep with it, soon that number will increase to two. 
 Create your own story for your life by leaving behind stories that people say is the way it should be or it is supposed to be. 
   
 BEST MOMENTS 
   “It seems (to me) is that a lot of people become an overnight success after decades of work…. I have this feeling that I’m just going to reach this tipping point where growth is exponential.” 
 “Happiness is an emotion, while positivity is a state of being.” 
 “Please allow yourself to change your mind. Allow yourself to figure out what your true desires are, to figure out what is in alignment for you and go for it and know that you are supposed to go on that path, you’re meant to go on that path…your desires will always evolve as you see more.” 
    “I value the feeling of expansion, more, going against the idea of what people believe the way it has to be.” 
  ABOUT THE GUEST 
 Jaclyn is a modern-day polymath. At the age of 21, she realized she wanted to start her own business. Success didn’t come immediately, but after a few resets and a few pivots, she began to dig more into psychology, manifestation, and understanding that she needed to follow her own heart. Five years later, she has a six-figure coaching business. She’s been a TedX speaker, written two books, has designed courses and conferences around the key aspects of self-empowerment, and has a purpose to help other women realize their own dreams. Although she may be “young” in terms of numbers, she is an old soul. She lives with her husband in Pennsylvania.

Come along with me on this ride of an episode where we get to meet Jaclyn and get inspired by her inimitable perspective on life. 
  
 KEY TAKEAWAYS- Start where you are: if you want to become a millionaire but you’re $50,000 in debt, Jaclyn might suggest to working with an affirmation where you notice how easily money finds you, and then noting it down on an “evidence list” so that your brain can start noticing and attuning its filters for abundance. - Creators need silence to produce their best ideas. 
  Sometimes the only person who will believe in your idea is you. But if you keep with it, soon that number will increase to two. 
 Create your own story for your life by leaving behind stories that people say is the way it should be or it is supposed to be. 
   
 BEST MOMENTS 
   “It seems (to me) is that a lot of people become an overnight success after decades of work…. I have this feeling that I’m just going to reach this tipping point where growth is exponential.” 
 “Happiness is an emotion, while positivity is a state of being.” 
 “Please allow yourself to change your mind. Allow yourself to figure out what your true desires are, to figure out what is in alignment for you and go for it and know that you are supposed to go on that path, you’re meant to go on that path…your desires will always evolve as you see more.” 
    “I value the feeling of expansion, more, going against the idea of what people believe the way it has to be.” 
  ABOUT THE GUEST 
 Jaclyn is a modern-day polymath. At the age of 21, she realized she wanted to start her own business. Success didn’t come immediately, but after a few resets and a few pivots, she began to dig more into psychology, manifestation, and understanding that she needed to follow her own heart. Five years later, she has a six-figure coaching business. She’s been a TedX speaker, written two books, has designed courses and conferences around the key aspects of self-empowerment, and has a purpose to help other women realize their own dreams. Although she may be “young” in terms of numbers, she is an old soul. She lives with her husband in Pennsylvania.

      <title>E274: “The Point of Life is Freedom” – Bill Fairman Interview</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/bill-fairman-carolina-capital-management</link>
      <description>Join us for today’s guest, Bill Fairman, for a conversation about money, debt, and how you can make those things work for you instead of you working for it. Bill has had a long career in finance, having worked in the mortgage industry for over 30 years. His experiences being mostly self-employed for most of his adult life, and living through the 2008 crash and recession, has sharpened his focus and passion about helping people become financially independent. 
  
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
 (When talking about Mastermind, a peer support group for marketing professionals) 1. Don’t go to (any networking event) where you’re the smartest person in the room, because you’re not getting any benefit from it. The point of networking is to give knowledge, and then to receive it as well.
  No matter how low things get, if you keep your head up, and keep working, things will get better. 
 The tortoise always wins the race, because it is not a sprint, it’s a marathon. 
 Make sure your business does more than one thing, so that if something goes sideways, you can diversify and pivot appropriately.
   
 BEST MOMENTS “One of the things we do with our business is that we are regional, so we understand our market, where we are – we’re not trying to be a national company. …We understand our footprint, and when things change, we adjust. That’s the great thing about being small-ish, we’re not like the big cruise ship that takes a couple days to turn around. We can be very nimble and take care of market situations as they come up.” 
 “At the point you retire, you’re hoping you die before you run out of money. It should never be that way.” 
 “This is why I’m so passionate about turning active income into passive income, because once you have that passive income, based on solid assets, there’s no-one or no market condition that is going to take that away from you. You are truly independent and free.”
 “There’s nothing wrong with debt as long as the debt is on an investment, because then the debt becomes an asset.”
  
 ABOUT THE GUEST 
 Bill is the owner and founder of Carolina Capital Management, LLC. His company helps to finance real estate investors who are buying property at a discount, then add value to them by constructing updates, and reselling them or holding onto them for future rental properties. In layperson’s terms, he founded a bank, but without the same regulations, and occupies a private money sector space. Prior to that, he was in the mortgage business for 30+ years.

      <title>E273: “Find Your Blooper Reel” – Mo Barrett Interview</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/mo-barrett-pardon-my-quirk</link>
      <description>Mo was a riot to connect with. She is a public speaker and author of book “Pardon My Quirk”, and a TEDx speaker. She shares a bit of her journey with me, from being a queer woman joining the Air Force as a pilot, to finding her true purpose coaching others to find happiness in the everyday moments of life. Her motto in life is “laugh, learn, think”, which we do throughout this episode. I can’t wait to share it with you. 
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  Have confidence in your weaknesses (that’s what differentiates you and knowing truly who you are makes you stronger)
 Magic doesn’t take place in big, cinematic moments. It can be the smallest gesture, like someone wanting to hold your hand. 
 Laughter can help move you forward into a place of action.
 Be weird – let people know your weirdness and you’ll be surprised the connections you can make. 
   
 BEST MOMENTS 
  “When I’m down in the dumps…if I watch this blooper reel, it makes me laugh, and once I’m laughing, then I can start…getting away from that moment where I think the world is ending.” 
   “If you’re having this experience that I was the catalyst for, and I don’t know about it, share it with me…. It’s powerful.”
   “I don’t think my stories are extraordinary…they’re about…finding the magic in the mundane.”
   “A lot of times we overthink things and as we overthink things, we lose the opportunity to act.” 
   
 ABOUT THE GUEST 
 Mo Barrett was a career Air Force pilot, and since her “retirement” has reinvented herself as a public speaker and mentor, and an author. Her work has taken her to the TEDx stage, and all over the world to work with people and show them that magic is in the smallest moment. Mo was born and raised in Virginia, and she is currently back in her home state. She is married to the love of her life and is raising four “fur babies”.

      <itunes:summary>Mo was a riot to connect with. She is a public speaker and author of book “Pardon My Quirk”, and a TEDx speaker.

 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  Have confidence in your weaknesses (that’s what differentiates you and knowing truly who you are makes you stronger)
 Magic doesn’t take place in big, cinematic moments. It can be the smallest gesture, like someone wanting to hold your hand. 
 Laughter can help move you forward into a place of action.
 Be weird – let people know your weirdness and you’ll be surprised the connections you can make. 
   
 BEST MOMENTS 
  “When I’m down in the dumps…if I watch this blooper reel, it makes me laugh, and once I’m laughing, then I can start…getting away from that moment where I think the world is ending.” 
   “If you’re having this experience that I was the catalyst for, and I don’t know about it, share it with me…. It’s powerful.”
   “I don’t think my stories are extraordinary…they’re about…finding the magic in the mundane.”
   “A lot of times we overthink things and as we overthink things, we lose the opportunity to act.”

      <title>E272: “You Help Me Be the Best Me I Can Be” – Tara Wyatt-Treslove Interview</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/tara-wyatt-treslove</link>
      <description>This conversation with Tara Wyatt-Treslove is tender, emotional, and vulnerable in all the best ways. Tara shares with us how she had a self-defining moment in a swimming pool changeroom when she was a child, and how that moment set her on the path to being the body freedom advocate she is today. After years in the teaching field and then obtaining her personal training certification, she has put it all on the line to start her own personal training business. Through online workouts and a supportive online community, individualized courses, and other offerings that are taking shape every day, Tara wants to reach all women who might be struggling with their body issues and give them the keys to their own sense of freedom. 
  
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  Discover the joy and freedom in movement that feels good to you. The size of your body should be the least interesting thing about you. 
   Everyone’s voice is valuable and yours is needed in the world. 
   We can do more in community than by ourselves. There is support and love and feedback in community. 
   Everything that you need, that you are looking for, is already inside of you. 
   
 BEST MOMENTS 
  “I thought if I could be fit, then I would be happy. If I could be fit, I could be the mom that my kids deserved, the wife that my husband deserved, the person that the world deserved.”
 “I feel like we need more of a sense of freedom than anything else. All the time and money and energy we spend on this container and trying to change it could be so much better used elsewhere. I still have good body days and bad body days, but I no longer let them consume me.”
 “I think that my journey with body freedom and my body image issues are very common, and I think that ultimately, we all have a feeling of lack, a feeling of not-enough-ness, and that is where our connection piece is, in terms of that emotion.”
   
 ABOUT THE GUEST 
 Tara is an advocate for other people who struggle with body image issues and want to be set free. That was the impetus for her beginning her personal training journey, and what led to her create her strength workshops and “Transform with Tara”. Beyond that, she is a schoolteacher, a mother, and a wife. She makes her home in Calgary Alberta.

      <title>E271: “The Depth of Surrender” – Christian de la Huerta Interview</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/271-fitb</link>
      <description>Christian has been on a full-time spiritual path for at least the past 30 years. He has a gentle, but incredibly focused energy about him – he knows that his mission is to reach people and help them along their own paths of transformation. He shares his story of coming into his own as a gay Cuban immigrant to the U.S., his unshakeable faith in an all-knowing and all-loving creator, and what he thinks is the destiny of every human on earth. 
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
 - If you are constantly running away from the things about yourself or your life that scare you, you can never be free. 
 - Forgiveness is the key that unlocks the stuck door. 
 - Trust the people in your life who can cut through the noise for you. 
 - You can dream big dreams. Once you have the big dreams, divide them into smaller and smaller parts until you have a size that you can act on. Achieve the small goals, and watch them add up to the dream you never thought you could have. 
  
 BEST MOMENTS 
  “I wouldn’t undo any of it. The pain and the alienation that I went through…is being used for good. (That) allowed me to understand and empathize with somebody else’s pain. The details may be different, but I *get* existential pain. I know how to get out of self-hatred and self-doubt, and morph that into self-confidence and self-acceptance and self-love. Because I went through it.” 
 “The single most important thing that needs to happen in the world is the empowerment of women. …When women are in 50% of power in the world, we’re going to have a very different relationship to war and poverty and hunger and social justice and how we treat the environment to all of it.” 
 “I see the book as a means to an end. I don’t think the book supported me in my own process of transformation, I think it was just a way of getting out there what I’ve been living and what’s been living inside of my head and inside of my soul. Writing for me…is more work. I resist writing. And yet for me, it was part of my sense of mission. For me, writing the book was a way of reaching more people so I could support them in their process of transformation and empowerment.” 
 “You cannot ‘namaste’ your shadow away.” 
  
 ABOUT THE GUEST 
 Christian was born and raised in a large, close-knit family in Havana Cuba, and when he was still a young boy, his parents left Cuba and immigrated to Milledgeville Georgia, a few years later relocating to Miami Florida. He was always a student of both spirituality and humanity. He achieved his degree in psychology and one of his first dreams was wanting to join the Catholic priesthood. 
 He has felt the sharp loneliness of being “other”: when he moved to the United States and didn’t speak English; when he began to realize he was gay and struggled to reconcile that with his faith. He had his first experience with breathwork in his 20s and that precipitated a spiritual journey, and gradually he began to share his experiences with others through speeches and coursework. Christian has given TedX talks, created group and individual coaching sessions, and written two best-selling books that aim to help people create their own paths of devastating, healing transformation.

 - You can dream big dreams. Once you have the big dreams, divide them into smaller and smaller parts until you have a size that you can act on. Achieve the small goals, and watch them add up to the dream you never thought you could have. 
  
 BEST MOMENTS 
  “I wouldn’t undo any of it. The pain and the alienation that I went through…is being used for good. (That) allowed me to understand and empathize with somebody else’s pain. The details may be different, but I *get* existential pain. I know how to get out of self-hatred and self-doubt, and morph that into self-confidence and self-acceptance and self-love. Because I went through it.” 
 “The single most important thing that needs to happen in the world is the empowerment of women. …When women are in 50% of power in the world, we’re going to have a very different relationship to war and poverty and hunger and social justice and how we treat the environment to all of it.” 
 “I see the book as a means to an end. I don’t think the book supported me in my own process of transformation, I think it was just a way of getting out there what I’ve been living and what’s been living inside of my head and inside of my soul. Writing for me…is more work. I resist writing. And yet for me, it was part of my sense of mission. For me, writing the book was a way of reaching more people so I could support them in their process of transformation and empowerment.” 
 “You cannot ‘namaste’ your shadow away.” 
  
 ABOUT THE GUEST 
 Christian was born and raised in a large, close-knit family in Havana Cuba, and when he was still a young boy, his parents left Cuba and immigrated to Milledgeville Georgia, a few years later relocating to Miami Florida. He was always a student of both spirituality and humanity. He achieved his degree in psychology and one of his first dreams was wanting to join the Catholic priesthood. 
 He has felt the sharp loneliness of being “other”: when he moved to the United States and didn’t speak English; when he began to realize he was gay and struggled to reconcile that with his faith. He had his first experience with breathwork in his 20s and that precipitated a spiritual journey, and gradually he began to share his experiences with others through speeches and coursework. Christian has given TedX talks, created group and individual coaching sessions, and written two best-selling books that aim to help people create their own paths of devastating, healing transformation.

      <title>E270: “Throw Petals Downhill” – Amanda Barrientez Interview</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/270-fitb</link>
      <description>Amanda Barrientez was studying for a Ph.D. in Sociology when she listened to the little voice inside herself that told her she wasn’t living in full alignment with her goals. Her marriage had broken up, the next relationship she was in had also failed, and she was a parent who could barely afford rent.
 The study of sociology makes her highly attuned to how humans behaved, and that period of personal upheaval made her realize that she had several limiting beliefs about her worth, which then affected what she thought she should earn. She began to take certification towards being a financial and lifecoach, and now works with other entrepreneurs to help them work through the obstacles that are in the way between them and their best lives. 
 “Throwing Petals Downhill” is a philosophy about work that she developed. Running a business and becoming your best self is work, but it should feel like throwing petals down a hill, rather than pushing a boulder up.  
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  Getting unstuck around your limiting beliefs about money is a question of working on self-esteem issues. It’s a spiritual journey. 
 There is no such thing as “bad” or “good”. If you can see situations as opportunities to grow and learn, to try and separate from that binary thinking, you start to live more in the present moment, which helps you live in gratitude and can rewire your thinking. 
 She wants to help people learn how to transform themselves into the best version of themselves. The money will follow. 
 Think of the word “healing”. It evokes nurturing, rest, space, care. Amanda has been called “The Money Healer” and she truly embodies this approach to her business and how she helps her clients. 
  BEST MOMENTS - “My mantra for 2021 was ‘work less, make more, have fun.’”
  “Fear and shame are really low energies, and most people feel a lot of that about money. I’ve worked with people of all different incomes and class levels, and I can’t think of a person I’ve met yet who feels 100% good about money. … How can you get into alignment in your soul to feel good in this body in this life?” 
 “I’m curious about the human puzzle and for the reason of conscious evolution – consciousness evolution.” 
 “You are whole as you are.” 
   
 ABOUT THE GUEST 
 Amanda is passionate about helping other entrepreneurs heal their relationships with money so they can achieve their professional goals. She is grounded in the certainty that your questions about financial worth have spiritual answers. Her approach to working with clients is a combination of mindfulness techniques, goal setting, and helping them dream their big dreams – and her formula is so successful in a few short years she has grown NFA into a six-figure consulting business. She is Colorado born and raised, a mother to three children, and a lifelong student of human nature.

      <title>E269: “We Meet Ourselves by Becoming Vulnerable” – Nikki Wetherell Interview</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/we-meet-ourselves-by-becoming-vulnerable-nikki-wet</link>
      <description>Nikki Wetherell found her way to becoming a somatic sex and life coach after a life-defining moment in 2010. She was a young mother and wife, dealing with the effects of a repressed sexual trauma, which landed her in a hospital after admitting to suicidal tendencies. It was her fierce commitment to her own healing, as well as the healing of her family, that inspired her to want to share those lessons with the world to help others heal and move past their own trauma. Nikki is someone whose commitment to honesty and vulnerability about her own life is hugely inspirational. She uses this inspiration to galvanize others to begin their own healing journeys, which she wants to support in whichever ways she can. 
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  Letting go is a huge key to (her) freedom. Getting to a place where she was able to acknowledge that she needed to heal, then allowing herself to process her trauma, and then setting down her past — has released her from a cycle of pain. 
   Vulnerability is terrifying because it involves both trust and rigorous honesty, but it can help you achieve your highest potential.
   Your pleasure is your own responsibility. 
   Forgiveness is not an essential part of moving forward. 
  BEST MOMENTS 
  “The amount of baggage people are capable of carrying is quite astounding. And then the energy it takes to carry that baggage and what we all do to cover it up is something else.” 
 “To do all that evolution (towards becoming a somatic coach), there’s been this thread of me trying to understand why my body functioned in a certain way, why did I need certain things, why did I struggle with certain aspects of sex and pleasure…as I really healed myself, I would get these stories (from) people.” 
 “It doesn’t matter how many walls I put up, I’m actually deeply vulnerable.” 
 “I had to get to a certain point in my healing and then move away from the place where I’d done that….and then I realized, ‘shit, I’m not even straight.’…If I hadn’t moved, if I hadn’t let go, I wouldn’t have realized it.”
  ABOUT THE GUEST 
 Nikki is a somatic sex coach — someone who works with the trauma that people can hold in their bodies that may be holding them back from experiencing life to the fullest. Early in life she experienced a trauma that was the catalyst for setting her on the path she is on today. Now she combines the training she received as a personal trainer, with holistic spiritual practices to help other women heal from their own hurts. Beyond her coaching practice, Nikki is a wife, a mother,

      <itunes:subtitle/>
      <itunes:summary>Nikki Wetherell found her way to becoming a somatic sex and life coach after a life-defining moment in 2010. She was a young mother and wife, dealing with the effects of a repressed sexual trauma, which landed her in a hospital after admitting to suicidal tendencies. It was her fierce commitment to her own healing, as well as the healing of her family, that inspired her to want to share those lessons with the world to help others heal and move past their own trauma. Nikki is someone whose commitment to honesty and vulnerability about her own life is hugely inspirational. She uses this inspiration to galvanize others to begin their own healing journeys, which she wants to support in whichever ways she can. 
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  Letting go is a huge key to (her) freedom. Getting to a place where she was able to acknowledge that she needed to heal, then allowing herself to process her trauma, and then setting down her past — has released her from a cycle of pain. 
   Vulnerability is terrifying because it involves both trust and rigorous honesty, but it can help you achieve your highest potential.
   Your pleasure is your own responsibility. 
   Forgiveness is not an essential part of moving forward. 
  BEST MOMENTS 
  “The amount of baggage people are capable of carrying is quite astounding. And then the energy it takes to carry that baggage and what we all do to cover it up is something else.” 
 “To do all that evolution (towards becoming a somatic coach), there’s been this thread of me trying to understand why my body functioned in a certain way, why did I need certain things, why did I struggle with certain aspects of sex and pleasure…as I really healed myself, I would get these stories (from) people.” 
 “It doesn’t matter how many walls I put up, I’m actually deeply vulnerable.” 
 “I had to get to a certain point in my healing and then move away from the place where I’d done that….and then I realized, ‘shit, I’m not even straight.’…If I hadn’t moved, if I hadn’t let go, I wouldn’t have realized it.”
  ABOUT THE GUEST 
 Nikki is a somatic sex coach — someone who works with the trauma that people can hold in their bodies that may be holding them back from experiencing life to the fullest. Early in life she experienced a trauma that was the catalyst for setting her on the path she is on today. Now she combines the training she received as a personal trainer, with holistic spiritual practices to help other women heal from their own hurts. Beyond her coaching practice, Nikki is a wife, a mother,

      <title>E268: “We Are the Way the Universe Appreciates Itself” - John Lefebvre Interview</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/we-are-the-way-the-universe-appreciates-itself-joh</link>
      <description>John Lefebvre has got boundless energy and freedom for changing the world. Two of his most defining moments came after he was arrested: the first time, he was 17 and sold some LSD to a couple of undercover police officers who looked like hippies. The second was when he was arrested in his mid-50s for conspiring to transfer funds with the intent to promote illegal gambling through a money transfer company he co-founded.Throughout his life, he has experienced the highest of highs and the lowest of lows, and as both a lifelong environmentalist and someone who’s experienced wealth like few others, he has a singular perspective on wealth redistribution, taking care of the earth we all live on, and how to leave a legacy for future generations. This is the conversation of a lifetime. 
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  Generosity pays dividends, but you can’t be attached to the outcome of what happens with that money. 
   If you are born into privilege, you didn’t do anything to “earn it” and you have a responsibility to pay it forward, and to share so that others can actualize their full potential. 
   Kindness is priceless. 
   If you start each day with a “beginner’s mindset” you are constantly surprised by what can happen in every day. 
  BEST MOMENTS 
  “We distinguish ourselves by the illusion that we’re special. We become at fault when we forget that luck comes with a cost.”
 “That part of us that dreams at night doesn’t go to sleep when we wake up.” 
 “We actually get more productive when our human resources are developed.” 
 “My responsibility was to learn how to be wealthy responsibly, and then teach others how to adopt that view.” 
  ABOUT THE GUEST 
 Raised as a (Catholic) altar boy in Calgary Alberta, by a single mom after his dad died when he was three, John has had a fascinating life. He’s been a lawyer, a “recidivist husband”, a single father, a musician, an author, a multi-millionaire, a climate change activist, and a philanthropist. A little bit hippie, a lot salt-of-the-earth, John has a deeply philosophical, whimsical take on the world and humanity’s purpose in it. His entire life has been shaped by the idea that simply by being born in Canada, he’s had immense privilege. He believes he has a sense of responsibility to share his advantages and wealth with others to make the world a better place.

      <title>E267: "It’s Not Failure Unless You Stop” – Annette Houston Interview</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/267-fitb</link>
      <description>This was an incredibly moving and real conversation to have. Annette has survived some rocky moments in her life, and she shares how, when she was a child, her father’s sudden illness almost caused the family to lose their business and did cause them to lose their home.
 This potentially traumatic moment turned into one of Annette’s driving forces: she began to help around the business and noticed that her actions were making a difference. She knew from an early age that being someone else’s employee wasn’t for her – she liked being her own boss.
 Family, hard work, and nostalgia (she loves all things Disney World – yes, it must be Florida) are still driving forces in her life. Settle in for a conversation with a person who knows the value of hard work and entrepreneurship, how to rest, and what giving back to one’s community truly means.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  The next time you start to feel upset about a particular obstacle, try looking at it as an opportunity instead. Literally say that to yourself. Reframing things in a positive sense helps you to find solutions you might not otherwise.
 Sometimes the only thing you can do to move your goals forward is to hang on to start another day. Learn to look at the bigger picture if your “failures” are starting to get you down.
 There is no such thing as a mistake.
 Have a life outside of your business, even if your business combines both your income and your passion. It is important to know how to rest and be involved with other things.
  BEST MOMENTS 
 “I caused myself (lost, in our business) and me -- so much trouble by not understanding that I didn’t know it all and not understanding that there were other people who were able to do things more efficiently…whatever role that it was, it wasn’t my strength.”
 (On being the owner of a business) “What job doesn’t have its challenges? Look at the opportunity you have in front of you to have a positive impact on people, whether its on your clients, your staff, or your own family? There’s opportunities in front of us every day if we choose to look at it that way.”
  “For anyone who likes to go, there’s a place on the way in to the Magic Kingdom where you come under the arch, go round and you can see the castle…there’s this feeling, you come in, and the sun’s beaming down and you start to smell all the smells: the popcorn and the bakery and the hotdogs…there’s a lot of people who get emotional. You only get that feeling when you leave and when you come back. This is what I work for.”
 “I love learning. If I’m not doing four courses, I’m not well. I always have something on the go that I’m trying to get my head around.”
 ABOUT THE GUEST 
 Annette Houston was born and raised in Donegal. She is a wife, a mother, and a huge Disney fan. She is also a business owner -- currently she owns several cleaning companies. She’s gotten a master’s degree in Innovation and Leadership from the Letterkenny Institute of Technology, and prides herself on her curiosity which keeps her learning.

      <itunes:summary>This was an incredibly moving and real conversation to have. Annette has survived some rocky moments in her life, and she shares how, when she was a child, her father’s sudden illness almost caused the family to lose their business and did cause them to lose their home.
 This potentially traumatic moment turned into one of Annette’s driving forces: she began to help around the business and noticed that her actions were making a difference. She knew from an early age that being someone else’s employee wasn’t for her – she liked being her own boss.
 Family, hard work, and nostalgia (she loves all things Disney World – yes, it must be Florida) are still driving forces in her life. Settle in for a conversation with a person who knows the value of hard work and entrepreneurship, how to rest, and what giving back to one’s community truly means.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  The next time you start to feel upset about a particular obstacle, try looking at it as an opportunity instead. Literally say that to yourself. Reframing things in a positive sense helps you to find solutions you might not otherwise.
 Sometimes the only thing you can do to move your goals forward is to hang on to start another day. Learn to look at the bigger picture if your “failures” are starting to get you down.
 There is no such thing as a mistake.
 Have a life outside of your business, even if your business combines both your income and your passion. It is important to know how to rest and be involved with other things.
  BEST MOMENTS 
 “I caused myself (lost, in our business) and me -- so much trouble by not understanding that I didn’t know it all and not understanding that there were other people who were able to do things more efficiently…whatever role that it was, it wasn’t my strength.”
 (On being the owner of a business) “What job doesn’t have its challenges? Look at the opportunity you have in front of you to have a positive impact on people, whether its on your clients, your staff, or your own family? There’s opportunities in front of us every day if we choose to look at it that way.”
  “For anyone who likes to go, there’s a place on the way in to the Magic Kingdom where you come under the arch, go round and you can see the castle…there’s this feeling, you come in, and the sun’s beaming down and you start to smell all the smells: the popcorn and the bakery and the hotdogs…there’s a lot of people who get emotional. You only get that feeling when you leave and when you come back. This is what I work for.”
 “I love learning. If I’m not doing four courses, I’m not well. I always have something on the go that I’m trying to get my head around.”

      <title>E266: “Finding that Gift That is in You and Being It” – Jill Thiry Interview</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/finding-that-gift-that-is-in-you-and-being-it-jill</link>
      <description>In this episode, Jill Thiry explains to Mighty Pete about her eight steps to realizing her goals, and the process she uses with her coaching clients to get them to realize theirs. Considering Thiry’s passion for her work, you may think her methods would be strict, but one of the cornerstones of her philosophy is kindness and love, with the reasoning that more will grow out of a sense of nourishment. In her coaching practice she uses a combination of visualization, mantra, intention setting and a scientific methodology to ignite a gradual, transformative change in people’s lives. 
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  Start big and then narrow down. Have a brainstorming session with yourself and uncover some of your big dreams, then slowly pick out a sentence or a word that pertains to that goal. Then decide on a step you can take to move towards that goal. 
   If things stop being fun, stop doing them. Let your curiosity guide your growth. 
   The more you experiment with goal setting, the louder your ‘heart voice’ will become, and the easier it will become the person you’re spiritually supposed to be. 
   Don’t be afraid to ask for help and show vulnerability. Being vulnerable is a big part of the journey. 
  BEST MOMENTS 
 “If I promise to myself and to you, that I’m going to commit to doing this one thing for the next week or the next month or the next year…but if I speak it, it kind of works to get it out of the spin.”
 “I’m going to say that there is nothing more (important) than your own health and wellness, because it shows love for yourself. I do believe that it is difficult for you to love other things and other people, and be a great mentor and example, if you don’t love yourself. … Your health and wellness, which for me is wholeness…you do share that love with others.” 
 (Allowing herself to follow her ‘yeses’) “Why am I doing this? What do I get out of it? What do I enjoy out of it, what do I not enjoy?” 
 “One of my gifts I think is making it simple and easy enough that people can practice it without judging themselves, without getting an ego.”
 
 ABOUT THE GUEST 
 Jill Thiry is a nomad, both in terms of her career and in her life. After getting her BA at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, she followed her passion for teaching and fitness to the local YWCA, where she became the fitness director. After that, she moved to Europe and spent two years teaching skiing and kayaking, and then backpacked through Southeast Asia before heading back to the United States. She got an MBA from the University of San Francisco, and worked in the publicity industry until 2001, when 9/11 was the catalyzing force behind a divorce and a career change. She began to split her time between Mexico and Southern California, working at a spa called Rancho de la Puerta in one and running a coaching business in the other. She has developed a mentoring process which she employs with her clients to this day. She still splits her time between Mexico and San Diego.

      <title>E265: “Once You Start the Fear Falls Away” – Elizabeth Batalla Interview</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/once-you-start-the-fear-falls-away-elizabeth-batal</link>
      <description>Elizabeth Batalla has a thoughtful approach to life which shapes and guides who she is today, and how she acts in the world. As a successful corporate star, she learned the tips of what makes people successful, and when she was ready, she made the transition to become a full-time mentor to other women through her own company. In her conversation with Mighty Pete, she shares with him and the audience the small and crucial interactions that changed her life and started her on this new path, her experience in the business world, how she developed her holistic approach to wellness, and how her vision encompasses both the Japanese concept of ikigai as well as common-sense, Western approaches to organization and goal setting. 
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  Each person in the world has dreams that are unique to them, and you shouldn’t let anyone talk you out of achieving what you want in life. Small steps forward, being organized about what you want, and working with and not against yourself can get you farther than you realize. 
   Health and success should be measured holistically, but we do not have to hustle to accomplish everything every day. Aim to check in with yourself about your goals a few times a week and you should have both the space and the structure to make real gains. 
   Trust the feedback that people give you when they have nothing to gain from the interaction. Look for those moments in your career and your personal relationships, they don’t have to be momentous. 
   Similarly, you won’t one day just wake up and live the life of your dreams. You can add one new habit to your daily routine and slowly transform yourself over time. 
   
 BEST MOMENTS 
 “For a truly happy life I do believe in a holistic approach, but I don’t want people to feel ‘oh my goodness, this is so much. How do I get all these areas to line up?’ and what I would say about that is, it’s not that you are doing these things every day…if you have that touch point along all those nine areas for, say, a week, you’ll be okay.” 
 “The inspiration is being able to make a real, real difference in people’s lives. Through the programs that I offer, through interacting with me, just being able to make that difference in someone’s life…I genuinely don’t like to see people in discomfort. … The fuel for me is to help people switch on that ‘a-ha’ moment.”
 “I had enough savings where I could step away from my corporate world without damaging my standard of living – of course I had to cut back on certain things, because I used the money in my savings to invest in the business and get things started and to give me traction to be able to work full-time on it, but I didn’t just walk away with no plan. I didn’t want to build my business from a place of desperation.” 
 “Just start. I say that because there’s so much out there, there are so many people with amazing talent, and they are either scared to start, or there is always something that prevents them from starting. Small, consistent steps can make a great change in someone’s life. Start where you are, use what you have, and do the best you can, but just start.” 
  
 ABOUT THE GUEST 
 Elizabeth Batalla worked in the corporate sector for over 30 years, cultivating her niche in consulting until March 2020, when she realized that she was ready to start her own business, helping others to achieve their professional and personal goals.

 ABOUT THE HOST 
 The ‘Mighty Pete Lonton’ from the ‘Mighty 247’ company is your main host of ‘Fire in The Belly’. 
 Pete is an entrepreneur, mentor, coach, property Investor, and father of three beautiful girls.

      <itunes:subtitle/>
      <itunes:summary>Elizabeth Batalla has a thoughtful approach to life which shapes and guides who she is today, and how she acts in the world. As a successful corporate star, she learned the tips of what makes people successful, and when she was ready, she made the transition to become a full-time mentor to other women through her own company. In her conversation with Mighty Pete, she shares with him and the audience the small and crucial interactions that changed her life and started her on this new path, her experience in the business world, how she developed her holistic approach to wellness, and how her vision encompasses both the Japanese concept of ikigai as well as common-sense, Western approaches to organization and goal setting. 
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  Each person in the world has dreams that are unique to them, and you shouldn’t let anyone talk you out of achieving what you want in life. Small steps forward, being organized about what you want, and working with and not against yourself can get you farther than you realize. 
   Health and success should be measured holistically, but we do not have to hustle to accomplish everything every day. Aim to check in with yourself about your goals a few times a week and you should have both the space and the structure to make real gains. 
   Trust the feedback that people give you when they have nothing to gain from the interaction. Look for those moments in your career and your personal relationships, they don’t have to be momentous. 
   Similarly, you won’t one day just wake up and live the life of your dreams. You can add one new habit to your daily routine and slowly transform yourself over time. 
   
 BEST MOMENTS 
 “For a truly happy life I do believe in a holistic approach, but I don’t want people to feel ‘oh my goodness, this is so much. How do I get all these areas to line up?’ and what I would say about that is, it’s not that you are doing these things every day…if you have that touch point along all those nine areas for, say, a week, you’ll be okay.” 
 “The inspiration is being able to make a real, real difference in people’s lives. Through the programs that I offer, through interacting with me, just being able to make that difference in someone’s life…I genuinely don’t like to see people in discomfort. … The fuel for me is to help people switch on that ‘a-ha’ moment.”
 “I had enough savings where I could step away from my corporate world without damaging my standard of living – of course I had to cut back on certain things, because I used the money in my savings to invest in the business and get things started and to give me traction to be able to work full-time on it, but I didn’t just walk away with no plan. I didn’t want to build my business from a place of desperation.” 
 “Just start. I say that because there’s so much out there, there are so many people with amazing talent, and they are either scared to start, or there is always something that prevents them from starting. Small, consistent steps can make a great change in someone’s life. Start where you are, use what you have, and do the best you can, but just start.”

      <title>E264: “Dream Big and Don’t Fear Anything” – Alex Oliveira Interview</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/dream-big-and-don-t-fear-anything-alex-oliveira-in</link>
      <description>Sit down and buckle in and get ready for an inspiring and energizing conversation between Mighty Pete and Alex Oliveira, business mentor, entrepreneur, father, husband, and jack of all trades. Alex has lived and experienced his share of tragedy. He’s seen some of his business ventures fail and has reinvented his path repeatedly. A lifelong learner and student of humanity, these days Alex consults and works with other businesses to help them grow through a process called “lead generation”. In this fascinating discussion, Alex shares his philosophy on life and work, what his true priorities are, and how he can be so successful while doing it all. 
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  If you truly enjoy what you’re doing, it never feels like work. 
   It’s not just about work. Fill your life with passion and fun – whatever that means for you – and you will be a well of endless energy. 
   If you find ways to give back in life, it will find a way to come back to you. 
   If you do what you are meant to do, you will make an indelible mark on this world.
  BEST MOMENTS 
  (If he was stranded on a desert island) “I’d still be sketching workflows…because it excites me, and I’d think about the sales and the commerce and (it makes me) think back to when I was a kid, working at the flea markets with my parents.”
 “We’re not going to be here forever, so how are you going to run your life? Are you going to let someone else run it for you?” 
 “Teach your workforce to tell their good stories about their life.” 
 “I want to learn more because it gives me joy to open my mind to things that I never thought were possible.”
  ABOUT THE GUEST 
 Alex redefines the word “passion”. Originally from Brazil, he immigrated to Florida in the U.S. when he was young, and he still lives about an hour outside of Orlando. He is an entrepreneur who specializes in lead generation and trains other business owners to maximize their own profits. Nothing slows him down – besides maintaining several businesses, speaking at conferences, and his consulting work, he hosts his own podcast, Dadpreneur, and is on the board of the YMCA. On the more personal side, Alex is a husband to his college sweetheart, and a father of four. He and his wife homeschool their kids. Whatever he turns his attention to it, be it in the business or family sphere, Alex does it with 1000% of his heart.

      <title>E263: “Measure the Right Things in the Right Way” – Jeff Smith Interview</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/measure-the-right-things-in-the-right-way-jeff-smi</link>
      <description>Settle in for a fascinating conversation with Jeff Smith, a person who seems to have done it all: he’s been a professional musician, a pilot, an author, an entrepreneur, a bestselling author. After being in the corporate world for several years, Jeff wanted to help other people with what he’d learned during his career: how setting clear, detailed goals can help others achieve the successes that had previously been outside of their reach. With focus and indefatigable energy, Jeff shares with Mighty Pete his personal definitions of success (which includes rest), and how his journey has landed him in the most interesting, creative places.

  If you follow your heart in your chosen career, your passion will ignite word-of-mouth, and loyal clientele will find you. 
 KPIs help you redefine your personal or professional goals by showing you how to improve on or refine what you did in the past.
 “Success is about having something that you want to achieve and being on the journey and moving towards that. … Success is more about striving towards (something) rather than having done it.” 
 Think about all the fears you have in your life. Most of them are not based in fact – they are based in conditioning. If you are dealing with obstacles in your life, work on what your conditioned beliefs are. 
   
 BEST MOMENTS 
  “If you don’t know where you’re going, you’re like a ship without a rudder.”
 “I began with the advertisements for my book. Because I decided I wanted to know what people would want – I spent three months defining my goal before I’d even written a word.”
 (Talking about a Tom Jones interview he listened to that changed his life) “Not having money changes people. When people have money, they become the person who they really are.”
 “We are born with only two fears: one is loud noises; the other is the fear of falling. Everything else is conditioning.”
  ABOUT THE GUEST 
 Jeff is from England and is affectionately known as the “KPI Guy”. (Key performance indicators are of course, the quantifiable measure of progress towards an intended goal). Jeff has been a business trainer and coach for over 35 years, and a motivational speaker for over 20. In this capacity, he has travelled the world being the keynote speaker at different conferences. Jeff has written seven best-selling books about KPI and provided expert financial consulting to hundreds of corporate and individual clients. Jeff also has a valid pilot’s license and donates his time and his aeroplane to Civil Air Patrol. He also finds the time to be an Ambassador to the United Nations, registered in both Geneva and New York. While his experience is international, Jeff and his business interests remain based in the U.K.

 ABOUT THE HOST 
 The ‘Mighty Pete Lonton’ from the ‘Mighty 247’ company is your main host of ‘Fire in The Belly’. 
 Pete is an entrepreneur, mentor, coach, property Investor, and father of three beautiful girls.

      <title>E262: “Follow the Breadcrumbs Through Life” – Liz Rutledge Interview</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/follow-the-breadcrumbs-through-life-liz-rutledge-i</link>
      <description>Join Mighty Pete for this vulnerable and honest discussion with the Liz Rutledge about mindfulness, success, and achieving one’s dreams. Liz is open about how she’s spent her entire life “following breadcrumbs” from one interest to another (for instance, when she was younger, she didn’t think she would have children, now she has three) but has built a purposeful life just the same. Having just turned 50, she thinks it’s been her best year yet in terms of self-knowledge and understanding. One of Liz’s passions in life is mentoring school-aged children as a mindfulness teacher, and she also is a proponent of living as lightly on the earth as possible to make the biggest impact on climate change. She lives her life by example, filling it with love, presence, and service. 
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  Just because you’re on the right path, or doing what you’ve already dreamed of, doesn’t mean you won’t have moments of self-doubt.
   A lot of the public dialogue around any issue seems quite black and white, because polarization drives profits. If we try to see all sides of an issue it can strengthen our sense of compassion.
   A benefit of getting older is an understanding of what our true core values are, letting go of any self-consciousness about how we present in the world, and streamline our lives so we can live as aligned to our values as possible. 
   Writing down our goals helps to manifest them. Part of Liz’s daily practice is to write her 17 goals and dreams down every morning, and then letting go of the process. The writing down helps to keep her spiritual energy focused. 
   
 BEST MOMENTS 
 “When we’re kind to others we get a little kickback of that kindness, because it feels good to do good.”
 “Every day I choose to be a wife and a mom. Every day I choose to continue to encourage people to be more caring about themselves and the planet. And there’s power in that – recognizing the power of choice. It isn’t always easy, but whether we’re fated or not, I think we do have some control over our path.” 
 “Getting out of our comfort zone, getting out of our home country, helps us understand others better.”
 “It’s not necessarily about how you make your dream come true, if you still make your dream come true, it still happened.”
  
 ABOUT THE GUEST 
 Liz Rutledge is first and foremost a mom, a sister, a wife, and a friend. Beyond raising her three children, she stays very connected with her community: volunteering, and teaching mindfulness programs to middle schoolers. Liz is a graduate of the Harvard Extension School, a writer (of novels, essays, and more) and the founder of SustainableThree.com (a website which teaches its visitors to be mindful of themselves, the planet, and each other). Home for Liz is in Denver Colorado.

      <title>E261: “Being Thrown into the Cold Water and Learning to Swim” – Regina Huber Interview</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/261-fitb</link>
      <description>You will want to hear this conversation between Mighty Pete and the one and only Regina Huber: a woman who spent much of her professional life in corporate management, and who has transitioned into being a career coach for women who want to make bigger gains in their own professions. Regina is certified in various training methods, has created, and founded her own training courses, published a best-selling book, and has been the featured speaker at several conferences. Beyond achieving irrefutable career success, she has forged her own path, and understands how important it is for each of us to live the lives that we were destined for. She shares with Mighty Pete how she figured out what life she was supposed to live, how to turn challenges into advantages, and how to fill your life with the passion that will drive you.
  
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  When she was starting out, Regina did not really have a role model for who she wanted to be, so she found one: herself. She understands that everyone’s goals are different and connects with each of her clients on their level, to adapt her teaching skills to their unique vision.
 Her business model and public speaking are both very connected to heart. That is the path towards success and a more spiritual fulfillment.
 Always be learning and have a “beginner’s mindset”. This can be applied to both Huber’s business and personal life (she finds great satisfaction in speaking to in-person audiences, but has had to adapt since Covid; also, she does not consider herself a great dancer but tries to dance four times a week). Being flexible and open-minded attracts joy into your life.
 She has had a unique and interesting life, led without much of a template – but she wants to change that and provide a formula for those people who may want to live a peripatetic life like hers. Giving back to the community is a big part of personal integrity.
   
 BEST MOMENTS 
  “I always tell my coaching clients that…we will be working on situations, specific situations, so in this sense the coaching is situational – but whatever you learn through those situations, as we go through them, that will help you transform, so then you take it with you for the rest of your life.”
 “I believe when I (lived) my most painful experience, I did not follow my intuition, I did not really listen to my heart. I wanted to do this – the collaboration with that person was probably the easy way out to not doing it on my own.”
 “The biggest part of leadership is trust-building. We have to be able to build trust in all directions. … (Leaders) need to be transparent, they have to have integrity, they have to be courageous…. They want to lead by example, not by words.”
 “I think most of us want to make an impact in our own ways. There are so many ways to make an impact, we don’t have to have the spotlight.”
  ABOUT THE GUEST 
 Regina Huber was born in a small farming town in Germany, but her adventuring spirit has taken her to five different continents through her work in the corporate world. She has lived and worked in the U.S., Spain, Argentina, and Brazil, as well as stints back in Germany. Her transition to becoming a professional career coach was gradual and natural. With a natural flair for public speaking and direct connection with her audience, Regina specializes in helping women in mid-level positions in their own careers achieve their next level of success. Beyond being a career coach, Regina is a best-selling author, nomad, and founder of her own teaching practicum: Transform Your Performance. Although she is back on the road again for now, she and her business are currently based in New York.

      <title>E260: "Live a Life of Design, Not of Default" – Cyrina Bullard Interview</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/260-fitb</link>
      <description>Cyrina Bullard breaks all the rules and stereotypes. As a second-generation certified pharmacist, she has long been interested in helping other people manage their pain and live healthier lives. After two traumatic brain injuries (TBIs), she had to teach herself how to walk, talk, and function again. Then, post-initial recovery, she dealt with daily headaches and had to retire from practicing pharmacy. She describes her second career as a spiritual calling. One night, something compelled her to look up the domain name, “Catching Happiness dot com”. It, for some reason, was free, so she immediately paid the $38 required to register it, and over time realised that she wanted to continue helping people, this time by training them to live more courageously, more mindfully, and more empathetically. Join Mighty Pete and Cyrina for an inspiring conversation about hope, perseverance, and the true definition of success.
  
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
   Resilience skills can be developed over time and through practice. “Whole grain health practices” such as sleep, eating healthy, and meditation can have measurable effects on our bodies. Our communities can be a real resource, as well – ask around what works for others. By sharing information, we become stronger and build connection.
 
  We only live one life, so we might as well make it a great one. What are your passions? What lights you on fire? What is holding you back from living the life of your dreams?
 
  Believing in science and fact-based knowledge does not preclude believing in miracles and serendipity.
 
  We are human beings, meant to experience the world and all it has to offer, but we are also here to be of service to others and be a contributing member of the human community.
 
  BEST MOMENTS 
   “How can we empower each other to live our best lives, because we don’t know what tomorrow holds? I (want to) help people be conscious about what activities they introduce to their days, because you can’t control what happens in your life, but you can control how you react to, or respond to what’s happening in your life. We need to be able to adapt to situations and rise.”
 
  “I think we learn and grow as we go, but it’s a process, becoming our best.”
 
  “I’ve studied a lot about the brain, since I’ve had these two brain injuries: how I can optimize my brain health, and none of it has to do with drugs. A lot has to do with meditation, exercise, the way you eat, do you sleep? … There are so many things we can do naturally to help with our physiology, because our bodies are so intelligent.”
 
  “I’m a very resilient person, so I’m capable of allowing myself to move through challenges…I feel like I’m on this path and I’m capable of feeling guided and listening to that inner voice.”
 
   
 ABOUT THE GUEST 
 Cyrina Bullard is a certified HeartMath trainer and a Life Mastery consultant, helping people discover their true vision for their lives and cultivate the courage to pursue it. She is a member of the Continuing Education committee at the College of Pharmacy and at a consumer advisory board at Craig Hospital. She practiced as a pharmacist for many years, until a series of traumatic brain injuries forced her into early retirement; but from that serious setback she realised that she could still help people by sharing her story, and the health and resilience skills she learned along her way back to life. Cyrina loves to travel, have a glass of red wine or some dark chocolate, and tries to live in the present moment as much as possible.

What is holding you back from living the life of your dreams?</p> </li> <li> <p>Believing in science and fact-based knowledge does not preclude believing in miracles and serendipity.</p> </li> <li> <p>We are human beings, meant to experience the world and all it has to offer, but we are also here to be of service to others and be a contributing member of the human community.</p> </li> </ul> <p><strong>BEST MOMENTS </strong></p> <ul> <li> <p>“How can we empower each other to live our best lives, because we don’t know what tomorrow holds? I (want to) help people be conscious about what activities they introduce to their days, because you can’t control what happens in your life, but you can control how you react to, or respond to what’s happening in your life. We need to be able to adapt to situations and rise.”</p> </li> <li> <p>“I think we learn and grow as we go, but it’s a process, becoming our best.”</p> </li> <li> <p>“I’ve studied a lot about the brain, since I’ve had these two brain injuries: how I can optimize my brain health, and none of it has to do with drugs. A lot has to do with meditation, exercise, the way you eat, do you sleep? … There are so many things we can do naturally to help with our physiology, because our bodies are so intelligent.”</p> </li> <li> <p>“I’m a very resilient person, so I’m capable of allowing myself to move through challenges…I feel like I’m on this path and I’m capable of feeling guided and listening to that inner voice.”</p> </li> </ul> <p> </p> <p><strong>ABOUT THE GUEST </strong></p> <p>Cyrina Bullard is a certified HeartMath trainer and a Life Mastery consultant, helping people discover their true vision for their lives and cultivate the courage to pursue it. She is a member of the Continuing Education committee at the College of Pharmacy and at a consumer advisory board at Craig Hospital.

      <title>E259: “Nobody Takes Our Power, We Give It Away” – Gail Rudolph Interview</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/259-fitb</link>
      <description>Gail Rudolph has a unique, holistic view of personal power and how it changes the world. She tells Mighty Pete how little tricks of body language and understanding how to stay grounded during any situation can directly affect the outcome.
  
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  Understanding how ‘power dynamics’ are a give-or-take scenario most of the time, and how you can achieve the outcome you want out of most situations by understanding when to exhibit your ‘active’ versus your ‘passive’ power.
 The “Scarcity Principle” can increase your ‘value’ and make people more inclined to listen to you, or value what you have to say.
 The obstacles or challenges you encountered as a child can often lead us to our purpose (for example, how Gail’s position as the youngest child in her family made her want to study how to get people’s voices heard).
 A negotiation can be curated so that the outcome is beneficial to both people.
  BEST MOMENTS 
  “Powering up is a choice we make to step into a fuller presence such as making direct eye contact or taking up that space that I talked about. Powering down, on the other hand, is intentionally changing our stance – expressing empathy, or giving others the chance to interrupt you, or using a softer tone of voice. You see, powering down has often been viewed as being very bad, or something we don’t want to do, but I’m here to tell you that powering down can be a very effective tool, as long as we intentionally use it and hold our power to make other people feel at ease.”
 “The law of power is ‘the only person you have control over is yourself.’ But if you can control your interaction with other people, you can change their experience with you.”
 “We confuse boundaries with power all the time. … Boundaries are simply the limits that we’ve set around our energy, our money, or our time.”
 “When we look at life as an opportunity, everything is a learning experience, there’s no failure in life…we have to learn the lessons to get to the next level. We don’t fail.”
  ABOUT THE GUEST 
 After years in the executive world managing and mediating power dynamics in the office, Gail Rudolph became a Cialdini Method Certified trainer and executive coach who helps businesspeople find their voice and attain a higher level of success. Gail has a Bachelor of Science in Psychology, a Leadership Certificate from Stanford Graduate School of Business, and a master’s degree in Human Services Administration, and she uses a scientific, results-driven approach to understanding the nuances of communication and human behavior. She is currently based in Palm Springs California.

      <title>E258: “Plants Don’t Worry if There’s Going to Be Sun Tomorrow.” – Tara Chatzakis Interview</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/258-fitb</link>
      <description>Tara Chatzakis has always been a free spirit. Born in Yorkshire, she was married and raising a family in Greece when she had an epiphany: she could leave her dysfunctional marriage if she wanted and create a new life for herself. She relocated herself and her three daughters to the Isle of Wight, and shortly after, realized she wanted to help other women to empower themselves. She began to take accreditation to become a business coach and entrepreneur; due to her love of people and her extroverted nature, she also found a niche in podcasting and motivational speaking. In this episode of the show, she and Mighty Pete discuss what it’s like to wake up one day and decide to take your life in your own hands. How the smallest of decisions can be pivotal, and how courage can be found along the way.
  
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  We only have one life, so it’s worth it to take chances on big dreams. Tara can help isolate the root causes of her clients’ insecurities and give them an action plan on how to move through them, thus releasing the obstacles holding them back from achieving their highest potential.
 The first step in achieving professional or personal goals is to be honest with yourself and what truly is motivating you.
 There is only one of each of us – so one of our life’s missions must be figuring out who that person is and being brave enough to let that person out – and a life coach can help. We all need mentors and will use them at different points in our lives.
 Training your brain through neuroplastic techniques and affirmations can help us reset the negative soundtracks we may not even be aware that we are playing.
  BEST MOMENTS 
  “Everyone has so much potential within them to do great things, but you just get used to living every single day like the Groundhog Day movie, every single day is exactly the same (but it doesn’t have to be).”
 “The more you speak about what you’re doing, the clearer you become on what you’re doing.”
 “The ego, bless it, is there to protect you, isn’t it? It wants to keep you safe. If it’s unknown, it’s going to question whether you need it, whether you it’s important, whether it’s expensive, whether it’s right for you, and all these things because it doesn’t understand what the outcome is going to be because it’s new and it’s scary. But you must let that go, and trust.”
 “You could spend your whole day worrying about something, and worrying that you’re not going to be able to do something, and then when you get to that point it’s all well and good anyway, so why did you waste all that time getting anxious about it?”
  ABOUT THE GUEST 
 Tara is a certified Law of Attraction practitioner and Robbins-Madanes coach, who works with women entrepreneurs who want to manifest their careers and lives into the next level. She has been working in this field for over a decade, and recently has also started her own podcast, (Happy, Inspired, Motivated) which is in the top 5% of motivational podcasts globally. She lives in the Isle of Wight with her daughters Kalls, Andi, and Gabby, and their cat and dog.

Pete openly talks about losing both of his parents, suffering periods of depression, business downturn and burn-out, and ultimately his years spent not stoking ‘Fire in the Belly’. In 2017, at 37 years of age that changed, and he is now on a journey of learning, growing, accepting, and inspiring others.
 Pete can connect with people and intuitively asks questions to reveal a person’s passion and discover how to live their mightiest life. The true power of ‘Fire in The Belly’ is the Q&amp;A’s - Questions and Actions section.
 The ‘Fire in The Belly’ brand and the programme is rapidly expanding into podcasts, seminars, talks, business workshops, development courses, and rapid results mentoring.

        <![CDATA[<p>Tara Chatzakis has always been a free spirit. Born in Yorkshire, she was married and raising a family in Greece when she had an epiphany: she could leave her dysfunctional marriage if she wanted and create a new life for herself. She relocated herself and her three daughters to the Isle of Wight, and shortly after, realized she wanted to help other women to empower themselves. She began to take accreditation to become a business coach and entrepreneur; due to her love of people and her extroverted nature, she also found a niche in podcasting and motivational speaking. In this episode of the show, she and Mighty Pete discuss what it’s like to wake up one day and decide to take your life in your own hands. How the smallest of decisions can be pivotal, and how courage can be found along the way.</p> <p> </p> <p><strong>KEY TAKEAWAYS</strong></p> <ul> <li>We only have one life, so it’s worth it to take chances on big dreams. Tara can help isolate the root causes of her clients’ insecurities and give them an action plan on how to move through them, thus releasing the obstacles holding them back from achieving their highest potential.</li> <li>The first step in achieving professional or personal goals is to be honest with yourself and what truly is motivating you.</li> <li>There is only one of each of us – so one of our life’s missions must be figuring out who that person is and being brave enough to let that person out – and a life coach can help. We all need mentors and will use them at different points in our lives.</li> <li>Training your brain through neuroplastic techniques and affirmations can help us reset the negative soundtracks we may not even be aware that we are playing.</li> </ul> <p><strong>BEST MOMENTS </strong></p> <ul> <li>“Everyone has so much potential within them to do great things, but you just get used to living every single day like the Groundhog Day movie, every single day is exactly the same (but it doesn’t have to be).”</li> <li>“The more you speak about what you’re doing, the clearer you become on what you’re doing.”</li> <li>“The ego, bless it, is there to protect you, isn’t it? It wants to keep you safe. If it’s unknown, it’s going to question whether you need it, whether you it’s important, whether it’s expensive, whether it’s right for you, and all these things because it doesn’t understand what the outcome is going to be because it’s new and it’s scary. But you must let that go, and trust.”</li> <li>“You could spend your whole day worrying about something, and worrying that you’re not going to be able to do something, and then when you get to that point it’s all well and good anyway, so why did you waste all that time getting anxious about it?”</li> </ul> <p><strong>ABOUT THE GUEST </strong></p> <p>Tara is a certified Law of Attraction practitioner and Robbins-Madanes coach, who works with women entrepreneurs who want to manifest their careers and lives into the next level. She has been working in this field for over a decade, and recently has also started her own podcast, (Happy, Inspired, Motivated) which is in the top 5% of motivational podcasts globally. She lives in the Isle of Wight with her daughters Kalls, Andi, and Gabby, and their cat and dog.</p> <p><strong> </strong><strong> </strong></p> <p><strong>CONTACT METHOD</strong></p> <p>Website: <a href="https://www.tarachatzakis.com/">https://www.tarachatzakis.com/</a></p> <p>Twitter: <a href="https://twitter.com/tarachatzakis">https://twitter.com/tarachatzakis</a></p> <p>YouTube: <a href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC3ekoKlqtzKrGRTYEVBMdtg">https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC3ekoKlqtzKrGRTYEVBMdtg</a></p> <p>Facebook: <a href="https://www.facebook.com/tarachatzakiscoaching">https://www.facebook.com/tarachatzakiscoaching</a></p> <p> </p> <p><strong>ABOUT THE HOST </strong></p> <p>The ‘Mighty Pete Lonton’ from the ‘Mighty 247’ company is your main host of ‘Fire in The Belly’.</p> <p>Pete is an entrepreneur, mentor, coach, property Investor, and father of three beau98tiful girls.

      <title>E257: “How Do I Want to Show Up?” – Jeffrey Scott Miller Interview</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/how-do-i-want-to-show-up-jeffrey-scott-miller-inte</link>
      <description>Scott Jeffrey Miller is a whirlwind: a whirlwind of energy, of focus and motivation, of passion. He sits down with Mighty Pete for an intimate conversation about what makes him tick, how he’s been able to become so successful in his professional career, and the moment in his life where everything changed. From Florida to Utah, from Disney to Franklin Covey, from project manager to author, Miller is the epitome of “if you fall down seven times, get up eight.’ He is not shy about discussing his failures or the many life lessons he’s learned along the way to the top of the game. 
  
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  Being honest about one’s failures takes away the mystique of success: it is a lot of trial and error, a lot of practice, a lot of hard work. 
 A key to career success is organization: making a detailed plan of approach and being disciplined to hit each of the goals on the way. 
 Be ready to pivot. Miller was not a father or husband until his 40s, but then he met his now-wife, fell deeply in love, took a leap and now his family is the most fulfilling part of his life and a large part of his legacy. 
 Sacrifice to have the life that you want. Miller rises at 4 a.m. every morning to do a little work before his family gets up. 
  BEST MOMENTS 
  “I live my life from the lens of, not ‘I have to’, not ‘I ought to’, but ‘I get to.’”
 “I don’t live my life enslaved by my detractors.”
 “Successful people are fairly willing to do what unsuccessful people aren’t.”
 “The more people you know, the more you realize how fragile life is.”
  ABOUT THE GUEST 
 Scott Jeffrey Miller is the entrepreneur who successful entrepreneurs look up to. He was hired in his mid 20s by the Walt Disney Company and helped design Celebrationn City (Walt Disney’s original version of The Epcot Center). After he left Disney, he was hired by Franklin Covey and rose through the ranks to become first their chief marketing officer, and then the vice president of thought leadership. After a 25-year career, Miller is now (semi) retired and a four-time best selling author, motivational speaker, business coach, husband and father. He lives in Utah with his family.

      <title>E256: “Midlife Wake-Up Call” – Phil Barth Interview</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/256-fitb</link>
      <description>Mighty Pete sits down with motivational speaker and author Phil Barth for a conversation about how, often, humans can fool themselves into believing they are invincible. Before 2015, Phil was a man addicted to stress. He worked 60-hour weeks, drank pots of coffee every day to keep going, and survived on very little sleep. Then he had a heart attack which landed him in the hospital. As part of his recovery, his doctors suggested that he take a week off work every three months. It was during one of those weeks off when he began to write a daily gratitude list, which provided the seed for his second book, Great Things Happen Every Day: Finding Joy with Family, Friends, and Banana Milkshakes. Phil is a deeply spiritual person whose goals post-2015 have become spending more time with his family, being of service in the ways he can, and continuing to cheer for all Cleveland sports teams.
  
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  Gratitude is a muscle, or a practice that can be grown and strengthened over time. He has trained himself to look for the great things in life.
 Often, the moments that we appreciate in our lives are small and revolve around the people in our lives – the human connections we have.
 Barth faced his own mortality more than once, but it was only after he had a health crisis that he nurtured his spirituality and truly questioned the foundations of his life.
 Just like how our “best moments” can be small, we can reconnect with our loved ones over time, through small and meaningful gestures.
  BEST MOMENTS 
  “When I started looking for what was positive in my life, when I started looking for what was positive around me – people, places, etc., my stress just lowered because I wasn’t focused on what was going wrong.”
 “What is important to me (now) is a healthy, happy family…(and) to give back.”
 “Is this the place I’m supposed to be right now? Is this the thing I’m supposed to be doing? You better believe it.”
 “I’m so lucky for so many reasons, not the least of which is: I survived.”
  ABOUT THE GUEST 
 Phil Barth was born and raised in Ohio and attended Bowling Green University, where he graduated with a degree in Computer Science. He has had more than a few brushes with fame: as a contestant on Who Wants to Be a Millionaire, he won $32,000 in prizes, and he was also a Top 10 finalist in the Toastmasters’ World Championship in 2011. In 2015 everything changed for him when he landed in the hospital due to a “minor” heart attack (although it did not feel minor), which led him to reassess and redesign his life so that it was more in line with his core beliefs. Thankfully, Phil is still alive and lives with his wife and three sons in Ohio. He maintains a busy public speaking schedule and may be working on his next book.

In 2015 everything changed for him when he landed in the hospital due to a “minor” heart attack (although it did not feel minor), which led him to reassess and redesign his life so that it was more in line with his core beliefs. Thankfully, Phil is still alive and lives with his wife and three sons in Ohio. He maintains a busy public speaking schedule and may be working on his next book.

        <![CDATA[<p>Mighty Pete sits down with motivational speaker and author Phil Barth for a conversation about how, often, humans can fool themselves into believing they are invincible. Before 2015, Phil was a man addicted to stress. He worked 60-hour weeks, drank pots of coffee every day to keep going, and survived on very little sleep. Then he had a heart attack which landed him in the hospital. As part of his recovery, his doctors suggested that he take a week off work every three months. It was during one of those weeks off when he began to write a daily gratitude list, which provided the seed for his second book, Great Things Happen Every Day: Finding Joy with Family, Friends, and Banana Milkshakes. Phil is a deeply spiritual person whose goals post-2015 have become spending more time with his family, being of service in the ways he can, and continuing to cheer for all Cleveland sports teams.</p> <p> </p> <p><strong>KEY TAKEAWAYS</strong></p> <ul> <li>Gratitude is a muscle, or a practice that can be grown and strengthened over time. He has trained himself to look for the great things in life.</li> <li>Often, the moments that we appreciate in our lives are small and revolve around the people in our lives – the human connections we have.</li> <li>Barth faced his own mortality more than once, but it was only after he had a health crisis that he nurtured his spirituality and truly questioned the foundations of his life.</li> <li>Just like how our “best moments” can be small, we can reconnect with our loved ones over time, through small and meaningful gestures.</li> </ul> <p><strong>BEST MOMENTS </strong></p> <ul> <li>“When I started looking for what was positive in my life, when I started looking for what was positive around me – people, places, etc., my stress just lowered because I wasn’t focused on what was going wrong.”</li> <li>“What is important to me (now) is a healthy, happy family…(and) to give back.”</li> <li>“Is this the place I’m supposed to be right now? Is this the thing I’m supposed to be doing? You better believe it.”</li> <li>“I’m so lucky for so many reasons, not the least of which is: I survived.”</li> </ul> <p><strong>ABOUT THE GUEST </strong></p> <p>Phil Barth was born and raised in Ohio and attended Bowling Green University, where he graduated with a degree in Computer Science.

      <title>E255: “Have A Vision for Your Life” – Joey Drolshagen Interview</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/255-fitb</link>
      <description>With passion and enthusiasm, business coach Joey Drolshagen shares with Mighty Pete how, after a successful 28-year career in the corporate sector, he finally had the courage to step into his dreams of helping others. In a catastrophically short amount of time, both of his parents died, his 19-year marriage ended, he was living apart from his son, and his retirement savings had been gutted due to the divorce. With literally nothing left to lose, Joey, always the entrepreneur, began to coach other professionals on how to take their business to the next level by looking at each of his clients’ mental blocks and showing them step-by-step how to break them down. His success has been astonishing, and he credits this to his bedrock of spirituality, hard work, and being aligned with his true purpose.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  One of Joey’s missions is to help other people find their life’s purpose quickly, without going through the hardships he did.
 He points out that adapting to and living with pain is habit forming and means that we often don’t step out into the discomfort of changing our circumstances.
 His faith and belief in something greater have strengthened his resolve to take risks
 If you love what you do it will never feel like work. Joey’s approach is to help each client with unique counsel, so that each of his solutions is different.
   
 BEST MOMENTS 
  “Where are you exactly right now and where do you want to be?”
 “Putting effort into what we want to do is actually energizing to us.”
 “To experience uncommon results, we have to take uncommon action. We’re going against our knowing, we’re even going against our feeling.”
 “Life happens *for* me and not *to* me. Clarity is power.”
  ABOUT THE GUEST 
 Joey Drolshagen spent close to 30 years in corporate, cultivating the skills he now uses to coach other professionals to greater heights in their own businesses. It has apparently worked, because in 2021, he was named one of the top 20 business coaches by Disruptor magazine. Joey works intimately with each of his clients to devise a unique action plan based on their needs and provides measurable results within a matter of weeks. Joey is a father, motivational speaker, entrepreneur and a man of faith. He lives in the mountains of South Carolina.

      <title>E254: “Find Your Talent and Practice, Practice, Practice” – Tyler Foley Interview</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/254-fitb-1</link>
      <description>Mighty Pete and Tyler Foley sit down to talk about talent and how to nurture it. Tyler has a very specific lived experience in that he’s been working as an actor from the age of six – and so has an important perspective on how to grow and improve the skills we have naturally. He humbly shares the setbacks he has gone through on the way to his current success, to show the Fire in the Belly listeners how “failures” are more often disguised gifts.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  Hone your talents and show up to make your dreams happen, but also leave space for the universe to guide you on a different path.
 We don’t “possess” any of our talents or material things. The best way to make use of anything is to use it in service to others.
 Find something that excites you and do it every day.
 Trust who you are (can you work a 9-5? Are you more an entrepreneur who prefers making their own hours?) and don’t needlessly drain your energy.
  BEST MOMENTS 
  “Talent is such a weird and finicky thing. I feel that everyone who has a chance to audition (for something) has talent, but your specific talent may not be what you need for that role.”
 “I am definitely metric-driven, too … I am pleasure-driven (as opposed to pain-driven). If I am not succeeding…currently, I know that I can get there. So, I’m driven for the reward at the end of the tunnel.”
  “(My setbacks) were necessary because they really focused (my) message. I will give this up, I will give that up – but I’m not giving up on this.”
  “There is nothing significantly different between a person who feels they are lucky versus a person who feels that they are unlucky, but the people who feel that they are lucky have a wider field of perception…so they are constantly looking for opportunities, (positive biases) over negative biases.”
  ABOUT THE GUEST 
 Sean Tyler Foley is many things: first and foremost, a father and husband, but also a bestselling author, a public speaker, an outdoor enthusiast, entrepreneur, and a former child actor who “retired” from acting at the age of 25. He has found a niche for himself through helping other people become more confident in sharing their stories on stage. He has travelled the world following his passion but is currently based in Calgary Alberta with his family.

        <![CDATA[<p>Mighty Pete and Tyler Foley sit down to talk about talent and how to nurture it. Tyler has a very specific lived experience in that he’s been working as an actor from the age of six – and so has an important perspective on how to grow and improve the skills we have naturally. He humbly shares the setbacks he has gone through on the way to his current success, to show the Fire in the Belly listeners how “failures” are more often disguised gifts.</p> <p><strong>KEY TAKEAWAYS</strong></p> <ul> <li>Hone your talents and show up to make your dreams happen, but also leave space for the universe to guide you on a different path.</li> <li>We don’t “possess” any of our talents or material things. The best way to make use of anything is to use it in service to others.</li> <li>Find something that excites you and do it every day.</li> <li>Trust who you are (can you work a 9-5? Are you more an entrepreneur who prefers making their own hours?) and don’t needlessly drain your energy.</li> </ul> <p><strong>BEST MOMENTS </strong></p> <ul> <li>“Talent is such a weird and finicky thing. I feel that everyone who has a chance to audition (for something) has talent, but your specific talent may not be what you need for that role.”</li> <li>“I am definitely metric-driven, too … I am pleasure-driven (as opposed to pain-driven). If I am not succeeding…currently, I know that I can get there. So, I’m driven for the reward at the end of the tunnel.”</li> </ul> <p>“(My setbacks) were necessary because they really focused (my) message. I will give this up, I will give that up – but I’m not giving up on this.”</p> <ul> <li>“There is nothing significantly different between a person who feels they are lucky versus a person who feels that they are unlucky, but the people who feel that they are lucky have a wider field of perception…so they are constantly looking for opportunities, (positive biases) over negative biases.”</li> </ul> <p><strong>ABOUT THE GUEST </strong></p> <p>Sean Tyler Foley is many things: first and foremost, a father and husband, but also a bestselling author, a public speaker, an outdoor enthusiast, entrepreneur, and a former child actor who “retired” from acting at the age of 25.

      <title>E253: “Wake Up to Who You Are” – Indra Rinzler Interview</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/254-fitb</link>
      <description>In this fascinating deep-dive conversation with one of the Western hemisphere’s leading spiritual teachers, Mighty Pete talks with Indra Rinzler about his extraordinary path to “enlightenment”. Full of laughter and light-heartedness, Rinzler shares how he began to study spirituality in his 20s, finding a particular resonance with Hindu teachings, and how that shaped the rest of his life. He has spent a lot of time in India and has travelled over 56 countries to embrace different cultures and make that a part of his spiritual offering. He is a sought-out Vedic astrologer, public speaker, and intuitive, who has clients all over the world.  
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  We can all get to a state of flow, which is being aligned with the universe. It is a state of being, of not asking, but knowing. A lot of getting into flow happens through silence, which Rinzler believes has a higher vibration than words.
 Once we learn our enneagram, we can observe our behavior and the stories we tell ourselves, so that we can let them go.
 According to the ancient Hindu Yugas, we are about 120 years into a new cycle of energy, called the “Dwapara Yuga”, (or Energy Age), which will last 2,000 years. If we are only 120 years in, we can ascribe the chaos of the outside world to the “growing pains”, or adolescence of this new era.
 Finding out about ourselves and the way we function is learning about the universe. We are always connected to the universe, even though we can sometimes feel separated from the flow.
  BEST MOMENTS 
  “I help people wake up to who they are.”
 “When the mind, when the ego quiets down then you find more comfort in and relevance for the silence.”
 “I just rebel against any question. What I’m attracted to is the answers, not the questions. I don’t think we need to know ‘why’. I read in a book recently that ‘you don’t need to know why; you just need to release.’ … So, the process now is releasing.”
 When I first got into spirituality, I was in my 20s… (I realized) when you can walk into a room and feel the energy that’s more than the physical plane of the room; you walk into a party, or you walk into a place and you can feel energy beyond what you know, it opens up every possibility.”
  ABOUT THE GUEST 
 Indra Rinzler has been walking his spiritual path for over 50 years. He spent part of his life as a book publisher, specializing in children’s books on nature, and lived for 20 years in an ashram, where he raised his children. Prior to the pandemic, he had spent every winter since 1998 in India. He is a Vedic astrologer who studies the Yugas, an ancient part of Hindu knowledge. He has combined his knowledge of astrology with the Enneagram theory and works with his clients on a deeply intuitive level, providing individual readings to help others achieve spiritual freedom. Indra Rinzler lives with his wife in California, close to the Sierra Nevada mountains.

      <title>E252: "Navigating Your Path with Intention” – Dr. Ian D. Brooks Interview</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/252-fitb</link>
      <description>In this one-on-one with Mighty Pete, Dr. Ian D. Brooks discusses how we can live with intention and purpose, by being our authentic selves one day, and one decision, at a time. Dr. Brooks’ career path, taking him through a Bachelor of Science and two graduate degrees in psychology, imbued him with intense curiosity and interest in how our thinking informs our actions. Over the past 25 years he has gone from being a practicing psychologist to helping leaders who are already successful in their chosen fields to become even better. Tune in to get inspired and transformed.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
 -If you’re not sure of your life’s purpose, there are actual steps you can take to uncover this in yourself.
 -Start small. Start with the one thing you can do. Keep doing what you can do until more becomes illuminated.
 -Ask for help when you need it. Mentorship can be key in personal growth.
 - When you’re uncomfortable is when the most growth happens.
 BEST MOMENTS 
  “Our characters are who we show up as every day, and our characters show up at different times in our lives.”“My superpower is, specifically, having a voice. A voice of purpose, a voice of change and transformation…to help people down a path to their own transformation.”
 “I struggle with ‘good’ and ‘bad’ when we are defined by it. We have to use our failures and successes as a reference, not as a place of residence.”
 “(Living with intention is) I’m moving forward with purpose and with knowledge of myself.”
  ABOUT THE GUEST 
 Dr. Ian D. Brooks has a master’s in Clinical Psychology from Auburn University and a Ph. D in Organizational/Industrial Psychology from Alliant. As a licensed clinician, author, public speaker, and motivational coach, he has helped hundreds of clients overcome their obstacles to success and forge new paths for themselves out of intention and purpose. Dr. Brooks, or “Dr. B” as he is affectionately known, now makes his home in Los Angeles California.

 - When you’re uncomfortable is when the most growth happens.
 BEST MOMENTS 
  “Our characters are who we show up as every day, and our characters show up at different times in our lives.”“My superpower is, specifically, having a voice. A voice of purpose, a voice of change and transformation…to help people down a path to their own transformation.”
 “I struggle with ‘good’ and ‘bad’ when we are defined by it. We have to use our failures and successes as a reference, not as a place of residence.”
 “(Living with intention is) I’m moving forward with purpose and with knowledge of myself.”

        <![CDATA[<p>In this one-on-one with Mighty Pete, Dr. Ian D. Brooks discusses how we can live with intention and purpose, by being our authentic selves one day, and one decision, at a time. Dr. Brooks’ career path, taking him through a Bachelor of Science and two graduate degrees in psychology, imbued him with intense curiosity and interest in how our thinking informs our actions. Over the past 25 years he has gone from being a practicing psychologist to helping leaders who are already successful in their chosen fields to become even better.

      <title>E251: “Stepping into the Fear” – Michelle Donnelly Interview</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/251-fitb</link>
      <description>In this episode, Mighty Pete sits down with Michelle Donnelly, the owner of the bakery Sweet Momma Simon, co-host of the After Hours show on Clubhouse, meditation coach, and professional photographer. They discuss her international move from the U.S. to Ireland 24 years ago, and how she’s built a life and a family there. She shares how she felt lost for many years, and through the process of finding herself, wants to light a fire under other people.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  Sometimes, even your family won’t be the first people to understand you. You must keep looking until you find the people that truly understand your heart.
 She would not be where or who she is if she hadn’t taken a huge step into the unknown. That has become a guiding principle in her life.
 Two words to describe Michelle Donnelly are family (the most important thing to her) and gratitude.
 Once you truly know and trust yourself, you care a lot less about what people think and you are able to forge the life that you are meant to have.
  BEST MOMENTS 
  “When you find your purpose, you light up like a big furnace.”
 “Make your own decisions and believe in yourself. Believe, believe, believe.”
 “I’m not ahead of myself, I’m not behind myself, I’m just where I’m supposed to be.”
 “I know that on the other side of the fear of ‘what are other people thinking?’ I look at all the things that I’ve started to do, all of the accomplishments that I’ve been able to do, and all of the amazing things that have come into my life because I got rid of that fear.”
  ABOUT THE GUEST 
 Michelle Donnelly is a fiercely independent entrepreneur: a trained baker, a photographer, a meditation coach, and a podcast host. Originally from Minnesota, U.S.A, she moved to Northern Ireland 24 years ago to be with her now husband, where she still lives with her family.

      <title>E250: “‘Whole’-istic Wellness” – Liz Rutledge and Cyrina Bullard Interview</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/whole-istic-wellness-liz-rutledge-and-cyrina-bulla</link>
      <description>This fascinating discussion takes us deep within the territory of mindfulness, trauma, and the slippery science of happiness. Cyrina Bullard and Liz Rutledge have run Sustainable Happiness Together since 2019 but have been friends and collaborators for much longer. Liz has taught mindfulness and meditation courses at the middle and high school levels, and Cyrina has had first-person experience using meditation to re-train her brain after two traumatic brain injuries meant she could not longer work as a pharmacist. Liz supplies the technique and Cyrina supplies the scientific metrics to show that this pursuit of happiness (via improved diet, exercise, connection with other people and with nature) has measurable effects on one’s health. It does not take them long to convince even the heartiest of skeptics, as they prove, time and time again, that in every moment, we have a choice to be present and fully engaged in our surroundings – and that does help our wellbeing, and others around us. 
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  There are measurable, scientifically proven gains to be had in our quality of life if we prioritize our own ‘happiness’. 
   Liz’s background is in teaching mindfulness to children – partly because children are eminently more teachable because they have less baggage. While the Winning Wellness packages are designed for everyone who wants to be holistically well, their primary targets are parents for this, “ripple effect” reason.
   Their unique contribution to the wellness industry lies in the combination of their backgrounds and their complementary offerings: Cyrina as a certified pharmacist, and Liz as a mindfulness educator. 
   Understanding the importance of people and connection on our energy levels; “if people are suffering around us, it affects our wellness’.
  BEST MOMENTS 
  “I think that we, as humans, have to be intentional about (creating) our day.”
 “Wellness for me is when I feel healthy in my body, mind, AND spirit.”
 “(Meditation) helps increase your brain’s grey matter, helps you be more focused, helps with your pre-frontal cortex – it can help with many physiological challenges.”
 “Our choices have a compounding effect. …40% of our ‘happiness’ is due to our thoughts and actions, so there is a lot of room there.”
   
 ABOUT THE GUEST 
 Cyrina Bullard and Liz Rutledge met years ago when Cyrina gave one of the “Angel Talks” at a school where Liz was spearheading a mindfulness course. Cyrina, a trained pharmacist who has also survived two traumatic brain injuries, and Liz, well-versed in mindfulness techniques as well as being the mother to three children, realized that they had a great connection and could be “stronger together”. They officially joined forces in 2019, just before the pandemic hit, so they pivoted their business model and now offer online wellness courses, under the umbrella of “Sustainable Happiness Together”.

        <![CDATA[<p>This fascinating discussion takes us deep within the territory of mindfulness, trauma, and the slippery science of happiness. Cyrina Bullard and Liz Rutledge have run Sustainable Happiness Together since 2019 but have been friends and collaborators for much longer. Liz has taught mindfulness and meditation courses at the middle and high school levels, and Cyrina has had first-person experience using meditation to re-train her brain after two traumatic brain injuries meant she could not longer work as a pharmacist. Liz supplies the technique and Cyrina supplies the scientific metrics to show that this pursuit of happiness (via improved diet, exercise, connection with other people and with nature) has measurable effects on one’s health. It does not take them long to convince even the heartiest of skeptics, as they prove, time and time again, that in every moment, we have a choice to be present and fully engaged in our surroundings – and that does help our wellbeing, and others around us. </p> <p><strong>KEY TAKEAWAYS</strong></p> <ul> <li>There are measurable, scientifically proven gains to be had in our quality of life if we prioritize our own ‘happiness’. </li> </ul> <ul> <li>Liz’s background is in teaching mindfulness to children – partly because children are eminently more teachable because they have less baggage. While the Winning Wellness packages are designed for everyone who wants to be holistically well, their primary targets are parents for this, “ripple effect” reason.</li> </ul> <ul> <li>Their unique contribution to the wellness industry lies in the combination of their backgrounds and their complementary offerings: Cyrina as a certified pharmacist, and Liz as a mindfulness educator. </li> </ul> <ul> <li>Understanding the importance of people and connection on our energy levels; “if people are suffering around us, it affects our wellness’.</li> </ul> <p><strong>BEST MOMENTS </strong></p> <ul> <li>“I think that we, as humans, have to be intentional about (creating) our day.”</li> <li>“Wellness for me is when I feel healthy in my body, mind, AND spirit.”</li> <li>“(Meditation) helps increase your brain’s grey matter, helps you be more focused, helps with your pre-frontal cortex – it can help with many physiological challenges.”</li> <li>“Our choices have a compounding effect. …40% of our ‘happiness’ is due to our thoughts and actions, so there is a lot of room there.”</li> </ul> <p> </p> <p><strong>ABOUT THE GUEST </strong></p> <p>Cyrina Bullard and Liz Rutledge met years ago when Cyrina gave one of the “Angel Talks” at a school where Liz was spearheading a mindfulness course. Cyrina, a trained pharmacist who has also survived two traumatic brain injuries, and Liz, well-versed in mindfulness techniques as well as being the mother to three children, realized that they had a great connection and could be “stronger together”. They officially joined forces in 2019, just before the pandemic hit, so they pivoted their business model and now offer online wellness courses, under the umbrella of “Sustainable Happiness Together”. </p> <p><strong>CONTACT METHOD</strong></p> <p>Website: <a href="https://winningwellness.learnworlds.com/">https://winningwellness.learnworlds.com/</a></p> <p>As a special gift to all Fire in the Belly listeners, you can get $50 off the “Willing Wellness bundle” by adding the discount code “Ignite Now” on check-out.</p> <p>Instagram: <a href="https://www.instagram.com/sustainablehappinesstogether/">https://www.instagram.com/sustainablehappinesstogether/</a></p> <p>Facebook: <a href="https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100069979353110">https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100069979353110</a></p> <p>LinkedIn: <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/sustainablehappinesstogether/">https://www.linkedin.com/in/sustainablehappinesstogether/</a></p> <p><br><br></p> <p><strong>ABOUT THE HOST </strong></p> <p>The ‘Mighty Pete Lonton’ from the ‘Mighty 247’ company is your main host of ‘Fire in The Belly’. </p> <p>Pete is an entrepreneur, mentor, coach, property Investor, and father of three beau98tiful girls.

      <title>E249: “Loving the World Forward” – Gayle Berry Interview</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/loving-the-world-forward-gayle-berry-interview</link>
      <description>Gayle Berry is a certified baby massage and yoga practitioner, a business mentor to other women, the founder of a charity, and an all-around force of nature. Over the course of their conversation, she shares with Mighty Pete the strange path that took her from being a finance lawyer in London UK to becoming the founder and CEO of Blossom &amp; Berry Baby Massage. Along the way she discusses passion and parenthood, how to find your driving force in life, and what the true definition of success might be.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  Understanding that growing your business isn’t always vertical, or linear. Gayle describes how it took 20 years for Blossom &amp; Berry Baby Massage &amp; Yoga to get to the place it is today: as her children have grown, so has her business. Her experience raising her children has informed how she runs her businesses.
 She believes entrepreneurship is a catalyst for connection, contribution, and community.
 Delegation – she advises that, as soon as you have the spare financial resources, to start removing things in your business that feel heavy, or difficult, or suck your time and energy, because you are so much better placed in your ‘genius zone’.
 Don’t waste your life and think “one day, I’ll do this”. She recounts how her husband and the father of her children, a previously healthy marathon runner, suddenly had a stroke at age 39. This reinforced to Gayle how none of us have control over what happens to us in life and helped her focus on her own path.
  BEST MOMENTS 
  “The more you know yourself, the more you trust yourself, the more you become that authentic style of parent. Everyone is in a different place on that and there’s no judgment on that, at all, because you can only be the parent of the person that you are … you don’t suddenly become Mary Poppins, then go, ‘okay, I don’t get irritated by a two-year-old who won’t put their shoes on.’ Of course, you do! … It’s about being mindful about owning what’s yours.”
 “I’m very much a present moment kind of person. I don’t try to know what’s coming too much in the future, and the past is gone.”
 “Success is enjoying your life and having the freedom to choose what you wish to do.”
 “Being constantly conscious of everything that you do is not coming from a place of fixing or ego, it’s coming from a place of co-creation.”
   
 ABOUT THE GUEST 
 Gayle Berry is first and foremost a mother of three, and she credits her experience of motherhood as the catalyst in helping her find her true path in life. In her early 20s, her first career was that of a finance lawyer in London, but she constantly felt awkward and inauthentic in that role. It was after the birth of her first child, Emily, where she discovered baby massage, as a method of trying to calm her colicky baby. That was the genesis of her company Blossom &amp; Berry. Over the last 20 years, as she raised her children, she grew and developed her vision for her company: now she helps train other women in baby massage and yoga, she runs a charity for mothers in Malawi, and she tries to bring love and connection to everything that she does.

      <title>E248: “Whatever ‘Normal’ Is” – Dorsey Ross Interview</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/whatever-normal-is-dorsey-ross-interview</link>
      <description>Dorsey Ross shares with Mighty Pete and the Fire in the Belly audience about what it’s like to live with a visible birth defect and facial deformity. His parents’ miracle baby, born in 1977 -- 21 years after their first child and 16 years after their second – he was quickly diagnosed with Apert’s Syndrome. Rather than institutionalize him as was recommended, his parents brought him home and raised him like they would anyone else. He found community early on in church youth groups: in the church he was never bullied like he was elsewhere; people accepted him for who he was and supported the vision for his life. This experience instilled a deep bedrock of faith in him and started him on the path of becoming a travelling minister. He is a proud public speaker and aims to inspire everyone he meets to doggedly pursue the life of their dreams.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  You can do anything you want in life if you allow yourself to figure out your own way of approaching your goals.
 Determination and faith are the foundation of a successful life.
 If you uncover your true self, the people who are meant to love and support you will find you.
 Being of service to others takes the guesswork out of having a good, fulfilled life.
  BEST MOMENTS 
  “My parents always encouraged me to try and figure out what are the things Dorsey can do and what are the things that Dorsey can’t do. From that I learned…that there weren’t many things I wouldn’t be able to do, even if I had to adapt.”
 “(God) created me for a reason and a purpose.”
 “My gift is to encourage people…to inspire people to do what it is that God wants them to do… to push on in their life circumstances, in their life trials, the barriers that people put in front of them that they can overcome.”
 (Regarding what he’d like his legacy to be) “(Dorsey was) one of those people (who) never gave up, (who) who kept going on, (who) kept persevering in his life.”
  ABOUT THE GUEST 
 Dorsey Ross was never meant to survive. Born in 1977 with a rare birth defect called Apert’s Syndrome, doctors initially told his parents that he was brain dead and that they should institutionalize him. His parents, though, wanted to see what he could do, and with their encouragement, Dorsey realized that he could do anything he wanted. After finding Christianity in his childhood, graduating high school, and taking college courses, he realized his true destiny was in ministry. He began calling different churches, asking if he could speak at their services. Decades later, Dorsey is still a “travelling minister” and a motivational speaker, as well as podcaster and tech aficionado. A person of devout faith who puts that faith into action, Dorsey is currently based in Pennsylvania.

      <itunes:summary>Dorsey Ross shares with Mighty Pete and the Fire in the Belly audience about what it’s like to live with a visible birth defect and facial deformity. His parents’ miracle baby, born in 1977 -- 21 years after their first child and 16 years after their second – he was quickly diagnosed with Apert’s Syndrome. Rather than institutionalize him as was recommended, his parents brought him home and raised him like they would anyone else. He found community early on in church youth groups: in the church he was never bullied like he was elsewhere; people accepted him for who he was and supported the vision for his life. This experience instilled a deep bedrock of faith in him and started him on the path of becoming a travelling minister. He is a proud public speaker and aims to inspire everyone he meets to doggedly pursue the life of their dreams.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  You can do anything you want in life if you allow yourself to figure out your own way of approaching your goals.
 Determination and faith are the foundation of a successful life.
 If you uncover your true self, the people who are meant to love and support you will find you.
 Being of service to others takes the guesswork out of having a good, fulfilled life.
  BEST MOMENTS 
  “My parents always encouraged me to try and figure out what are the things Dorsey can do and what are the things that Dorsey can’t do. From that I learned…that there weren’t many things I wouldn’t be able to do, even if I had to adapt.”
 “(God) created me for a reason and a purpose.”
 “My gift is to encourage people…to inspire people to do what it is that God wants them to do… to push on in their life circumstances, in their life trials, the barriers that people put in front of them that they can overcome.”
 (Regarding what he’d like his legacy to be) “(Dorsey was) one of those people (who) never gave up, (who) who kept going on, (who) kept persevering in his life.”
  ABOUT THE GUEST 
 Dorsey Ross was never meant to survive. Born in 1977 with a rare birth defect called Apert’s Syndrome, doctors initially told his parents that he was brain dead and that they should institutionalize him. His parents, though, wanted to see what he could do, and with their encouragement, Dorsey realized that he could do anything he wanted. After finding Christianity in his childhood, graduating high school, and taking college courses, he realized his true destiny was in ministry. He began calling different churches, asking if he could speak at their services. Decades later, Dorsey is still a “travelling minister” and a motivational speaker, as well as podcaster and tech aficionado. A person of devout faith who puts that faith into action, Dorsey is currently based in Pennsylvania.

      <title>E247: “It Takes a Lot of Screaming to Start a Chain Reaction” – Christina Vitagliano Interview</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/it-takes-a-lot-of-screaming-to-start-a-chain-react</link>
      <description>In this episode, Christina Vitagliano describes to Mighty Pete how certain “random” factors (having an abandoned building, needing to finance editing for a book she’d written) turned into the Monster Mini Golf franchise that she still runs over 20 years later. The book itself, while delayed until the COVID pandemic gave her space to publish it, is now out in the world and details, with harrowing honesty, the childhood sexual abuse she experienced in her family home. Christina shares with us her life journey, how she tries to advocate for others who can’t advocate for themselves and shows how honesty and integrity can get us through most of what life throws at us.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  After years of distance, the different pieces of her life fit together in a smooth arc: how she came from a working-class town where she heard from parents that it cost too much to take their kids to the movies: so, she aimed to create a cost-effective, family friendly experience by putting together her first Monster Mini Golf. It’s loads of fun, and the whole family takes down monsters, together. 
 Her book took over 20 years to publish, but now she has the money to truly promote it, and the wisdom and experience to hold her ground no matter what the response. If it’s meant to, everything does happen in its own time. 
 If she can help one other person dealing with the effects of childhood sexual abuse, it will all have been worth it. 
 It may take a village to raise a child, but it takes an army to save one. 
  BEST MOMENTS 
   “How do I not let what happened to me many years ago affect who I am today?”
    (About writing a memoir that exposes her childhood sexual abuse) “The only thing you can do is hope that what you’ve written is exactly what I said – that somebody reads it and helps them. Or somebody reads it and says, ‘I haven’t said anything, maybe I should speak up, because this is happening, either in my house or to somebody I know.’”
   “I’m an adult now, I don’t have children, I’m successful with my life, so I can afford to take the time to yell, and I feel that…not everybody can, because they’re just trying to get by every day. I just want to be able to yell for other people who can’t.”
   “This has made me the kind of person that will speak up; if something is wrong, I will say that something is wrong. … I am the person who will take the right road (rather than the shortcut). I like that about myself.”
   
 ABOUT THE GUEST 
  
 Christina Vitagliano is the founder of the mini golf franchise Monster Mini Golf, which has locations all through the United States and Canada. She is also the self-published author of Every Nine Minutes, a memoir of her childhood sexual abuse. Born and raised in the eastern United States, she and her husband of over 20 years currently live in Las Vegas, Nevada.

      <title>E246: “You’re Doing it on Purpose Because It’s Your Business” – Brandon Tracy Interview</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/you-re-doing-it-on-purpose-because-it-s-your-busin</link>
      <description>Brandon Tracy is a real estate agent and business owner who has lived through at least two major dark nights of the soul: both of which catalyzed him to re-evaluate his life and how he approached his goals. He talks to Mighty Pete and the Fire in the Belly audience about how he lost everything in the 2009 recession, and how that experience helped show him where, and how, he was standing in his own way. As he rebuilt his real estate business through a measured approach of being vulnerable and transparent in his practices, he vowed he would help other entrepreneurs to avoid the same pitfalls that had slowed him down. In this episode of the podcast, we get to listen to Brandon’s unique story and how he created his consulting service, The Authentic Agent, and what he hopes to help others achieve.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  Curiosity about all aspects of life and being humble about the practice of learning new things, can fuel passion and success in your business.
 Taking personal responsibility for one’s actions is difficult, and often uncomfortable, but finding that path forward emotionally often yields results in your personal and professional life.
 Vulnerability breeds authenticity, which attracts people to you and to your “brand”.
 What if we spent eight hours a day, five days a week, truly dedicated to our goals – not just watching Netflix, but planning out an approach and trying to make it happen? There is a special equation that happens when we give time and strategy and consistency to what we want to have happen.
  BEST MOMENTS 
  “Business is an incredible conduit for spiritual and personal growth…our businesses will grow in direct proportion to how we grow as people.”
 “A lot of people’s inability to move their business forward is just, simply, inconsistency. It’s such a simple thing, yet so incredibly powerful to show up for yourself and your business and your family and your goals and do it with great consistency.”
 “I feel a lot of solace in the action of life. It helps me to be ‘doing’.”
 “What causes people to fail is their inability to be vulnerable.”
  ABOUT THE GUEST 
 Brandon Tracy has lived several lifetimes in his 40 years. Right after graduating from Arizona State with a degree in kinesiology, at the age of 24, he was diagnosed with a golf-ball-sized brain tumour behind his left eye. Lying in his hospital bed after emergency surgery, he realized he wanted to follow in his mother’s footsteps and become a real estate agent. After attaining a multimillion-dollar career in real estate, he lost everything (multiple homes, multiple cars, his entire fortune) after the economic recession of 2009, and was reduced to couch-surfing with friends while he re-assessed, once again, the wreckage of his life. It was at that point that he had two revelations: real estate was more important to him than he realized, and he was the main obstacle standing in his way. That day, the journey towards becoming his most authentic, transparent self, began.
 Now, Brandon is the powerhouse behind Authentic Agent: entrepreneurial, industry support that helps other real estate agents reach success by being more vulnerable, authentic, and transparent in their personal and business practices.

      <itunes:subtitle/>
      <itunes:summary>Brandon Tracy is a real estate agent and business owner who has lived through at least two major dark nights of the soul: both of which catalyzed him to re-evaluate his life and how he approached his goals. He talks to Mighty Pete and the Fire in the Belly audience about how he lost everything in the 2009 recession, and how that experience helped show him where, and how, he was standing in his own way. As he rebuilt his real estate business through a measured approach of being vulnerable and transparent in his practices, he vowed he would help other entrepreneurs to avoid the same pitfalls that had slowed him down. In this episode of the podcast, we get to listen to Brandon’s unique story and how he created his consulting service, The Authentic Agent, and what he hopes to help others achieve.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  Curiosity about all aspects of life and being humble about the practice of learning new things, can fuel passion and success in your business.
 Taking personal responsibility for one’s actions is difficult, and often uncomfortable, but finding that path forward emotionally often yields results in your personal and professional life.
 Vulnerability breeds authenticity, which attracts people to you and to your “brand”.
 What if we spent eight hours a day, five days a week, truly dedicated to our goals – not just watching Netflix, but planning out an approach and trying to make it happen? There is a special equation that happens when we give time and strategy and consistency to what we want to have happen.
  BEST MOMENTS 
  “Business is an incredible conduit for spiritual and personal growth…our businesses will grow in direct proportion to how we grow as people.”
 “A lot of people’s inability to move their business forward is just, simply, inconsistency. It’s such a simple thing, yet so incredibly powerful to show up for yourself and your business and your family and your goals and do it with great consistency.”
 “I feel a lot of solace in the action of life. It helps me to be ‘doing’.”
 “What causes people to fail is their inability to be vulnerable.”
  ABOUT THE GUEST 
 Brandon Tracy has lived several lifetimes in his 40 years. Right after graduating from Arizona State with a degree in kinesiology, at the age of 24, he was diagnosed with a golf-ball-sized brain tumour behind his left eye. Lying in his hospital bed after emergency surgery, he realized he wanted to follow in his mother’s footsteps and become a real estate agent. After attaining a multimillion-dollar career in real estate, he lost everything (multiple homes, multiple cars, his entire fortune) after the economic recession of 2009, and was reduced to couch-surfing with friends while he re-assessed, once again, the wreckage of his life. It was at that point that he had two revelations: real estate was more important to him than he realized, and he was the main obstacle standing in his way.

      <title>E245: “How Do I Get My Energizer Bunny Back?” – Avital Miller Interview</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/how-do-i-get-my-energizer-bunny-back-avital-miller</link>
      <description>Avital Miller sits down with Mighty Pete to share with him how a serious health problem inspired her to change her life completely. Once upon a time she was a career engineer with Microsoft, but since being diagnosed with a thyroid disorder, she has dedicated her life to healing and helping others. She has studied yoga and dance, ayurvedic medicine, and the link between the subconscious mind and physical health, and shares with the audience a multi-pronged, holistic approach to better health.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  Sometimes, and for some people, allopathic medicine is the right course of action, and other times, naturopathic medicine is right. The idea is to keep an open mind about what can work.
 Shifting subconscious habits by doing daily activities slightly differently is key to reboot our nervous and immune systems.
 By working with her parasympathetic nervous system through regular meditation, Avital was able to reduce the allopathic medicine she took for her Hashimoto’s disease.
 Human beings have an unlimited supply of energy, but when our bodies are busy “fixing something wrong”, it taxes that.
  BEST MOMENTS 
  “We have a natural ability to have all the energy that we need and if we don’t have it, that means we need to change something in our life.
 “I believe that health issues often come about when we are going through spiritual growth.”
 “The thoughts that we think and how we feel about ourselves will also impact our ability to heal.”
 “(I think my purpose is to) help other people and have tons of fun. On a deeper level, it’s to do what I think God wants me to do.”
  ABOUT THE GUEST 
 Avital Miller has been known for her extraordinary amounts of energy her entire life. She has distinct memories of waiting for nap time to be over during nursery school and being the last one to bed and first one awake in her childhood home.
 This all changed one year when she was on a family vacation and couldn’t stop sleeping. After returning home and after many visits to the hospital, she was diagnosed with Hashimoto’s disease, an auto-immune disorder linked to the malfunction of the thyroid. She sought many paths towards treatment: she went to India to study ayurvedic medicine, she began meditating – and she realized that the more she meditated, the more her allopathic medication was reduced. This helped her change careers from being a program engineer at Microsoft and become a yoga teacher, dance instructor, author, and energy healer. She continues to use a holistic approach to healing, incorporating both allopathic and naturopathic methods, when working with her clients.

      <title>E244: “Never Say Never” – Shangrila Rendon Interview</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/never-say-never-shangrila-rendon-interview</link>
      <description>Perhaps Shangrila’s middle name should be Phoenix, as in “risen from the ashes”. In this inspirational, hour-long conversation, Shangrila shares with Fire in the Belly how she overcame childhood sexual abuse, addiction and left her promising career as an engineer to become a professional triathlete. In 2010, she did not know how to swim, nor did she own a bike, and currently she holds two Guinness Book of World Records for running five ultra-marathons in five days. Listen to how she immigrated to California from the Philippines and went from living in her car to the pinnacle of athletic achievement through sheer grit, love, and determination. 
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  Her background as an engineer, with that facility with statistics and analysis, plus her people skills, make her an ideal coach.
   She has a five-point training program (physical training, nutrition, body maintenance, race strategies and mental fitness) where rest and recovery are key. 
   Self-care is incredibly important to keep her balanced, but it must be fluid – one day it could be a cup of coffee, another some time at the beach. Stay in tune with yourself. 
   Her best recharge tips can be distilled to self-expression, adventure, and connecting with other people.
  BEST MOMENTS 
  “Just being happy helps me prioritize.”
   “The love that I have, taking care of myself, knowing more about what I really want and what makes me happy – I want to give that to others.” 
   “When I work with people, my clients, I give them more than what they’re paying for, because there’s love in it.”
   “My ultimate goal is to help as many individuals as I can, globally.”
   
 ABOUT THE GUEST 
 Shangrila Rendon is a powerhouse of a human being. Known as the “Feisty Fox”, she immigrated to the United States from the Philippines when she was 19 years old. Years of sexual abuse led to years of addiction issues, which she finally overcame. She was a professional engineer for over 15 years before quitting to become a professional athlete, and now she makes her living as a full-time coach, training analyst, and advocate. She is world renowned for running five ultramarathons in five days – which is incredible regardless, but especially considering in 2010 she did not know how to swim, nor ride a bike. Shangrila lives in California with her wife of ten years.

      <title>E243: “Getting Off Your Hamster Wheel” – Stacey Vanthuyne Interview</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/243-fitb</link>
      <description>Mighty Pete has an exciting conversation with Stacey Vanthuyne, a life coach who is passionate about changing the dialogue of our subconscious minds through positive affirmation and practicing an abundance mindset. Full of energy and drive, Stacey shares with Pete how she almost lost her fire and how she managed to save her passion for life through a series of challenges. She adheres to the idea that success isn’t a destination but a practice and is achieved by taking that first step towards one’s goal.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS:
  An abundance mindset is more of a journey than a destination; it takes practice. But we can eventually train ourselves out of scarcity thinking through goal setting and accountability.
 We do not need to know the “how” to achieve something. Once we act towards our goals, the how will show itself.
 Our subconscious mind can help us create the reality of our dreams. With discipline and a willingness to leave our comfort zone, we can train our subconscious to work with and not against us.
 When (we) are our highest selves, we are one with the universe.”
  BEST MOMENTS 
  “We’ve been trained that wanting more is being selfish … but “better” is a good word. By becoming more, (we) can give more.”
 “Our subconscious mind, our self-image, is like a thermostat. It dictates what we can achieve in life.”
 “If we believe we are full of infinite potential, that takes care of the question, ‘Am I able?’ The question (becomes) ‘Am I willing?’”
 “When you say yes to yourself and yes to having a coach in your corner, then you are successful in that moment because you took the first step in achieving a goal.  … I want to break the stigma that we have to do this on our own.”
  ABOUT THE GUEST 
 After years in the corporate world and in a loving but unfulfilling marriage, Stacey realized that she was losing the spark inside of herself that had always fueled her. After making the leap to end her partnership and begin a second career as a life coach, she now fulfils her mission daily to empower and inspire others. Studying with the likes of Bob Proctor, incorporating lessons from her background in change management, as well as mindfulness techniques, she creates individual coaching plans for each of her clients. Stacey is a “prairies girl” through and through: she lives and raises her two daughters in Edmonton Alberta, in Canada.

      <title>E242: “Re-Inventing the Meaning of Success” – Sammy Warrayat Interview</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/sammy-warrayat</link>
      <description>Sammy Warrayat, founder of The Financezilla brand and host of the Successful Millennials podcast, shares his thoughts on how he became a successful entrepreneur so young. In his 20s, he planned to exit the corporate world by the age of 30, and was able to achieve that goal partly by constantly asking himself “what if?” What if he didn’t let imposter syndrome get in the way of trying new things? What if he approached success as a mindset, and not as an endpoint in a journey?
 By combining his analytical nature with his intuition about business, Sammy has been able to take measured risks in his career and see them pay off. He aims to help other millennials to accomplish the same thing.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  Routine equals discipline. If you are disciplined about the goals you have for yourself, you will achieve results.
 There are five tenets to success: physical and mental health, money, passion for one’s career, relationships, and overall happiness.
 Warrayat concentrates on his age range (24-32) because he thinks that subset of millennials is ignored by many self-development coaches.
 If you focus on improving your “areas of weakness”, you will see faster overall improvement in both your career and personal development.
  BEST MOMENTS 
  “What topic can I narrow down…that I feel I can provide (consistent) value on?”
 “My fear is one thing, but my desire to help even one person supersedes that.”
 “One of the best things about social media is seeing that there is a lot more (than the typical 9-5) out there. Financial freedom is the new goal.”
 “If you chase your passion in one area, all of a sudden it opens the doors of possibilities in other areas of your life.”
  ABOUT THE GUEST 
 Sammy Warrayat is a podcaster and entrepreneur based in the state of Georgia, in the U.S. After spending over five years in the corporate world where he was a statistics analyst, he knew he wanted a career that was more challenging, and where he could also inspire others to become more independent. His talent for numbers made him a natural at day trading, which led him to financial consulting and coaching. Sammy considers his success a direct result of discipline and ability to thrive under pressure, and his personal goal of continuously improving all areas of his life. When he has any spare time, you might find him travelling, playing basketball, or reading self-development books.

      <title>E241: “Everything is An Opportunity to Evolve to a Higher Consciousness” – Ullis Karlsson Interview</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/everything-is-an-opportunity-to-evolve-to-a-higher</link>
      <description>In this fascinating conversation about the ways humans can spiritually heal, Ullis Karlsson discusses the impact of trauma on the body and how it can live as an energy signature within each of us. Since a life-changing moment in the winter of 2008 when she almost died, she has dedicated herself to helping others find and release their own spiritual and physical pain through yoga, journaling, and a “the only way out is through” methodology. 
 (Note: this episode intimately discusses suicide, so please take care when listening). 
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  You can transform pain into pleasure, you can transform fear into love, but you must go “through the body” because (trauma) is stored in the body. 
   Incorporating properly balanced masculine and feminine energies into our lives can help us achieve a more holistic state of well-being. 
   We all need the “black void” of experience because it’s part of our potential that we have not discovered. 
   We are all souls living in human bodies, having human experiences, but not all of us are aligned. 
   
 BEST MOMENTS 
  “If I am grounded in my heart, in my body, then there is no way I can abuse myself, or somebody else, or this planet.” 
   “The more you move through your darkness, the more access you’ll have to your light.”
   “What would the world look like if we didn’t do so many things?”
   “We don’t have to write books, we don’t have to change the world, we don’t have to come up with big inventions…maybe it’s all about being the best version of me I can be.” 
  ABOUT THE GUEST 
 Ullis Karlsson is a yogi and spiritual guide living in the Västerås area of Sweden. A certified Kundalini yoga instructor, Ullis has created several courses on how to move trauma through the body through gentle movement. In her supportive role as a spiritual coach, Ullis combines knowledge of the Akashic records, yoga, and Ayurvedic medicine to tailor an individualized spiritual awakening for each of her clients. Ullis is a single parent of two teenagers, an introvert, an empath, and most of all, a multi-dimensional being.

      <title>E240: “It’s Less About Finding and More About Listening” – Katharyn Havey Interview</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/katharyn-havey</link>
      <description>Mighty Pete has a delightfully offbeat conversation with Kathryn Havey, a certified “spiritual transformation” coach. She talks about her journey from the medical field to the spiritual plane, how to surrender to the process of Life, and how her courses are geared to help each of her clients to be able to clarify their goals, turn up the volume on their intuition, and live whole, fulfilled, peaceful lives.

  Life is hard and we’re not taught how to navigate our emotional landscapes and how to navigate these difficult things that happen in life. (We can take) these traumas, these wounds, and change the narrative and use them as accelerants to our next higher version.
 Anxiety and depression can be symptoms of a much deeper dysfunction, a symptom of not being in alignment with your true self.
 Spiritual healing needs to have a holistic approach and encompass emotional, mental, somatic, behavioral, and unconscious motivations.
   
 BEST MOMENTS 
  
“Energetic wounds are like physical wounds. If you have a physical wound, you are more susceptible to infection…it’s the same with energetic wounds. If you have an energetic wound, you are opening yourself up to the “bacteria” of the energetic world.
 “Hard work does not equal success. It can, but I don’t have to work hard to be happy or successful. I don’t have to… be a 10 out of 10 in anxiety and overworking and overwhelmed to be happy.”
 “I know that as long as I am following the next intelligent step, I’m doing the right thing today.”
 “Life is not going to judge you for not participating, but it will constantly present you with opportunities to heal.”
   
  
 ABOUT THE GUEST 
 Katharyn Havey is a former nurse and current spiritual transformation coach, currently based in L.A. She had long struggled with anxiety and depression, which got worse during her years as a bedside nurse in a traditional hospital setting; it wasn’t until she was fired from a temporary contract when she took a three-year-long sabbatical to reassess her life. What came next was no less than a spiritual transformation, which started her on her path to become a private coach for clients wanting more out of their lives.

      <title>E239: What Are You Waiting For?” – Phil Fraser Interview</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/philip-fraser</link>
      <description>In this episode of Fire in the Belly, Mighty Pete has an in-depth conversation with the self-described “business sounding board” Phil Fraser, about what it’s like being a mentor for other business owners, taking risks as an entrepreneur, and how you can take advantage of the happy accidents that happen along the way.
  
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  There is a difference between being someone’s mentor (someone who’s been where you currently are and can help you through that process); a coach (someone who has a specific skill set to impart); and a consultant (the person who can give career specific advice)
 As one’s business grows, you will naturally employ people who are better at certain things than you are – the trick is to delegate properly.
 Sometimes, you will be the only person who sees what your business can become. Self confidence and faith in your own abilities is a key trait of any successful entrepreneur.
 When faced with a decision involving your business, consider three things: 1) whatever the “problem” is, you’re not alone – someone has gone through this before 2) what is the worst that could happen?
  3) what is the best that could happen?
  
 BEST MOMENTS 
 - “Bring me your problems, and I’ll give you solutions.”
 - “Hitting whatever target you set, whatever the goal is, if you get to that goal, that’s success.”
 - “It was a failure that, by accident, triggered an opportunity. … There are a lot of opportunities out there that a lot of people miss because they think they can’t do (it).”
 - “(A great question is) when was the last time you did something for the first time?”
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
 ABOUT THE GUEST 
 Phil Fraser is a former advertising and marketing executive, based in Leeds. As a successful entrepreneur, he took one of his “far-fetched ideas” from a “kitchen table start-up” with limited funding to a multi-million-dollar sale 18 years later. Now, his enduring passion is to help entrepreneurs avoid some of the detours he took on his own path to success. With a storied background in marketing, advertising, and hustling, Phil wants to help others to find and achieve their own visions, by providing a range of services targeted at keeping his clients both in their business’ day-to-day and reaching towards the future.

      <title>E238: “The Win is In the Ask” – David Wood Interview</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/238-fitb</link>
      <description>David Wood sits down with Mighty Pete to discuss the secrets of his success. David, a former consulting actuary of a Fortune 100 company, now runs the largest business consulting firm on record, serving over 12 countries. He helps high-revenue clients to double their profits by becoming 30% more courageous in their decisions. Listen to how he continues to challenge himself and take risks, both in his personal and professional life to keep himself deep in the flow of his own life.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  Considers himself a perpetual student of thinkers like Byron Katie and Eckart Tolle; the spiritual guides the professional.
 His core values can be distilled to a sense of play, authenticity/transparency, and courage
 Your actions need to be driven by passion.
 It’s not trying to get rid of the negative thoughts, it’s about trying to balance them with positive ones.
   
 BEST MOMENTS 
  Risks sometimes do not work out, but the personal win is that the risk was taken. If you play by the lore of large numbers, you will eventually succeed.
 Some things you will be good at naturally; others will require hard work to attain. Have you loved something consistently? Go where that feeling leads you.
 He tries to live by the maxim: “live in the flow with occasional visits to the mind”
 Part of his purpose is to be transparent especially when its embarrassing, which drives a sense of connection to his clients and audience.
   
 ABOUT THE GUEST 
 David Woods moved to the US from Australia in 1985. In his 20+ year coaching career, he has helped many businesses take creative risks to achieve more profit. Beyond his profession, he is passionate about the integrity of his relationships, challenging oneself to grow as a person, and trying to find the lightness in any situation.

      <itunes:summary>David Wood sits down with Mighty Pete to discuss the secrets of his success. David, a former consulting actuary of a Fortune 100 company, now runs the largest business consulting firm on record, serving over 12 countries. He helps high-revenue clients to double their profits by becoming 30% more courageous in their decisions. Listen to how he continues to challenge himself and take risks, both in his personal and professional life to keep himself deep in the flow of his own life.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  Considers himself a perpetual student of thinkers like Byron Katie and Eckart Tolle; the spiritual guides the professional.
 His core values can be distilled to a sense of play, authenticity/transparency, and courage
 Your actions need to be driven by passion.
 It’s not trying to get rid of the negative thoughts, it’s about trying to balance them with positive ones.
   
 BEST MOMENTS 
  Risks sometimes do not work out, but the personal win is that the risk was taken. If you play by the lore of large numbers, you will eventually succeed.
 Some things you will be good at naturally; others will require hard work to attain. Have you loved something consistently? Go where that feeling leads you.
 He tries to live by the maxim: “live in the flow with occasional visits to the mind”
 Part of his purpose is to be transparent especially when its embarrassing, which drives a sense of connection to his clients and audience.
   
 ABOUT THE GUEST 
 David Woods moved to the US from Australia in 1985. In his 20+ year coaching career, he has helped many businesses take creative risks to achieve more profit. Beyond his profession, he is passionate about the integrity of his relationships, challenging oneself to grow as a person, and trying to find the lightness in any situation.

      <title>E237: “Have the Breakdown in Order to Have the Breakthrough” – Victoria Evans Interview</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/237-fitb</link>
      <description>In this episode of Fire in the Belly, Mighty Pete has a vulnerable and intimate conversation with Victoria Evans, a business and life coach who aims to help women feel empowered to achieve their personal or professional goals. Victoria struggled for many years with eating disorders, and it was only after she asked for help that her recovery journey began – and when she began to understand that asking for help is one of the bravest things one can do.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  Perfection drives disconnection, when being connected with others is one of our basic needs
 Living in a space of frustration and shame prevents action
 Victoria wants to help people to understand and fast-track through their pain, so that they feel understood, seen and heard.
 There is a physiological science to positive self-talk – it provides a small hit of dopamine to your brain
  BEST MOMENTS 
  Any human can do whatever they want to if they get out of their own way
 After years of struggling with eating disorders, she called a helpline and told someone else what she was feeling: which helped her realize that asking for help is such a huge moment of strength and courage.
 She helps her clients unpack their whys behind what they are doing so that they can release their shame and move forward.
 Her business model is based on what she needed to hear when she was younger.
  ABOUT THE GUEST 
 Victoria Evans is currently based in Portugal, although her nomadic lifestyle has led her to Bali and all over Asia in the last few years. She is a business and life coach who offers both one-on-one coaching and group courses and is interested in the psychology and science behind why humans do what they do.

      <title>E236: Pursuing Your Passion - An Interview with Andy Petek CEO of Daydreamer Media Group</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/236-fitb</link>
      <description>Andy Petek talks to Pete about how he is changing the future of online storytelling with his podcast media outlet
 When you find your passion it becomes what drives you and Andy explains how his passion is about changing the landscape of  online storytelling through empowering others and explains how those he works with become part of his extended family
 As he talks candidly with Pete about his entrepreneurial journey and shares some of the challenging situations and adversity he has had to overcome to be where he is today and reveals how communication is vital in any business relationship
  
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  We are about changing the landscape of online storytelling by empowering unique and talented people who would not necessarily have an outlet
 It’s been a unique endeavour owning a media company and being a challenger brand
 We spent our time with people creating lifestyle and happiness podcasts
 We test organically and we’ve had a couple of unicorn podcasts that we didn’t think would do well but have gone on to be really popular
 We are trying to find solutions for people especially in the arena of mental health in business
 We have created the opportunity to bring value in a way that is tailored to each person
 The world of podcasting is a fascinating tool in creating sales and audience
 People are willing to invest in telling stories on the internet
 My way to succeed is to put my love and energy into my people - who are working with our clients
 Podcasting is a passion game and there are some categories that are really overcrowded
 We haven’t tried to compete in the areas where there is lots of competition
 The difference in quality between an amateur with a microphone and a studio recording is very small
 Storytelling is becoming democratised and my superpower is empathy and creativity
   
 BEST MOMENTS
 ‘We partner with some really good humans and it’s been an interesting endeavour’
 ‘I’ve pretty much experienced everything that you don’t want to have to do’
 ‘We can get them on a couple of smaller podcasts in their industry niche and get them sales

      <title>E235: How Aware of Your Past Are You? An Interview with Dr Jeff Williamson</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/jeff-williamson</link>
      <description>Life is all about connection and in this engaging episode Pete speaks to Dr Jeff Williamson, a coach and teacher who has always looked to make a sincere and authentic connection with people. Currently Dr Williamson runs his own executive coaching practice, teaches and feels like he is exactly where he is supposed to be right now.
  
 KEY TAKEAWAYS 
  Dr Williamson has spent time in the classroom teaching, in management, as a dean and so much more. He loves to develop others and see them learn whether that is in structured learning or just part of their life journey.
 Everything that Dr Williamson has done up to now built the foundations to build what he has. It was all supposed to happen and form part of his journey.
 Executive coaching is about asking the individual what they are struggling with and what they want help with. It’s then Dr Williamson’s job to help them in any way that he can.
 It is difficult for people to not let fear hold them back, but if we can become aware of what is causing our self-doubt we can start to combat it and truly free ourselves from this fear.
 So many of the problems found in our personal lives and is businesses are down to poor communication.
 What are the things only you can do and what are the things others can do for you? If you can figure this out it can help prevent overwhelm in your life and allow you to have better balance.
   
 BEST MOMENTS 
 “Mentoring is a little more driven by personal growth”
 “I am exactly where I’m supposed to be”
 “There has to be a time where you say here are the 8 things that are do-or-dies for me”

      <title>E234: We All Have Different Life Changing Moments -  James McGrath Interview</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/234-fitb</link>
      <description>In this sincere, engaging and emotive episode, Pete speaks to mentor and entrepreneur James McGarth. They discuss trauma, authenticity and why James healing from suicidal thoughts created the path and journey he finds himself on now.
  
 KEY TAKEAWAYS 
  James has always had an urge and desire to help others. He worked in a school but after being made redundant and dealing with some personal challenges he became a mentor. Nowadays he helps people deal and work with their emotions as well as going into schools to help children in a similar way.
 When James was 29, he contemplated suicide, thankfully he worked on his spiritual journey and healed. He now wants to help as many people as possible, he is a great believer that all humans go through pain, fear and doubt. We just have to figure out how to deal with these difficult parts of life.
 We all have different life changing moments, it’s about perception, acceptance and how we choose to deal with the emotions surrounding them that decides how life carries on for us afterwards.
 For James, he learnt that there are things that happen in our lives but it is up to use whether we accept them as negative and positive and how they impact us.
 Authenticity and to live an authentic life is very important to James. Being true to himself and his values is a true measure of success for him.
   
 BEST MOMENTS 
 “I’m a mentor and i help people through their emotions”
 “In that moment I found my heartbeat, I almost grabbed myself from falling”
 “We all have different life changing moments”
 “We must protect our garden…weeds can creep in”

      <title>E233: “I Want To Read From My Heart” - Nina Aouilk Interview.</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/i-want-to-read-from-my-heart-nina-aouilk-interview</link>
      <description>Professional speaker, author and advocate for mental health Nina Aouilk joins the show to discuss her childhood and how she hopes to reach those living in fear all around the world. Together they discuss freedom is a luxury to many people, how society often blames the victim and the power of manifestation. 
 KEY TAKEAWAYS 
  Freedom is such a luxury to some people that many people do not understand that simple tasks such as painting nails are often taken for granted as others are not allowed to do so. Many people who do not have freedom do not know any difference, so to them, it becomes their normality. 
 Some cultures see women as a problem because their families fear that they will fall pregnant or fall in love. Families do not value the love that a daughter can give or the value a daughter can bring into their lives. 
 Sometimes you have to understand that it is not selfish to do what is best for you and your family. Many people want to break out and change things but their parents are trying to bring them back in. 
 Society teaches us that we should have a certain type of colour skin, a certain type of hair and make victims of abuse feel as though they have done something wrong. Whereas they are the ones who need the most love. 
 We all have different parts of our personalities. Certain times will change that person in a way. 
 You can have anything you want in the world, literally anything. You will not know when it will come because the timings do not always work out the way that you want it. The right thing will happen to you in the end. 
   
 BEST MOMENTS 
 “I have been reliving my past, but I’ve never held onto it.”
 “I don’t have that fear in me. The fear that was in me, I let go of it.”
 “I have such fierce determination.”
 “I didn’t want to read from a script I wanted to read from my heart.”

 ABOUT THE HOST
 The ‘Mighty Pete Lonton’ from the ‘Mighty 247’ company is your main host of ‘Fire In The Belly’. 
 Pete is an Entrepreneur, Mentor, Coach, Property Investor, and father of 3 beautiful girls. Pete’s background is in Project Management and Property, but his true passion is the ‘Fire in The Belly’ project itself.

      <itunes:summary>Professional speaker, author and advocate for mental health Nina Aouilk joins the show to discuss her childhood and how she hopes to reach those living in fear all around the world. Together they discuss freedom is a luxury to many people, how society often blames the victim and the power of manifestation. 
 KEY TAKEAWAYS 
  Freedom is such a luxury to some people that many people do not understand that simple tasks such as painting nails are often taken for granted as others are not allowed to do so. Many people who do not have freedom do not know any difference, so to them, it becomes their normality. 
 Some cultures see women as a problem because their families fear that they will fall pregnant or fall in love. Families do not value the love that a daughter can give or the value a daughter can bring into their lives. 
 Sometimes you have to understand that it is not selfish to do what is best for you and your family. Many people want to break out and change things but their parents are trying to bring them back in. 
 Society teaches us that we should have a certain type of colour skin, a certain type of hair and make victims of abuse feel as though they have done something wrong. Whereas they are the ones who need the most love. 
 We all have different parts of our personalities. Certain times will change that person in a way. 
 You can have anything you want in the world, literally anything. You will not know when it will come because the timings do not always work out the way that you want it. The right thing will happen to you in the end. 
   
 BEST MOMENTS 
 “I have been reliving my past, but I’ve never held onto it.”
 “I don’t have that fear in me. The fear that was in me, I let go of it.”
 “I have such fierce determination.”
 “I didn’t want to read from a script I wanted to read from my heart.”

      <title>E232: “The Prize In All Of This, Is The Beauty Of Getting There” - Kyle Sullivan Interview</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/kyle-sullivan</link>
      <description>Former church pastor and founder of coaching company ‘Unleash The Champ’, Kyle Sullivan joins the show today to share how he has helped people and churches evaluate and expand possibilities and execute at levels once only seen in dreams. Together they discuss how there is always a gap between where you are and where you could be, why failure is not scary and the beauty in everybody having different views.
  
 KEY TAKEAWAYS 
  We can be content with our lives but not satisfied. There is always a gap between where you are and where you could be, especially in those people who have big visions. Ask yourself, ‘what needs to die in you to become the person the person you said you’d become?’
 As you close the gap of your awareness, vision and perception now, it is going to expand again. It is always expanding because as we get to new levels, increased vision happens and you want to reach the next step. The prize in life is enjoying the journey.
 Failure is not scary, but what is scary is who you have to become to achieve the success that you see with your eyes closed. There may be relationships that you hold dear right now, that may not be in your life in ten years. You have to sell out to the vision that is in your head.
 Reaching a place where you understand that things may change to reach where you want to go means you need to know the things that you will no longer tolerate in your life. Then you have to analyse your life and see if they are in alignment with what you need to tolerate, if they aren’t, then you have to change things. The change is difficult.
 We are all so different in life, and that is so beautiful. Everybody's views are different and it is beautiful to hear all their stories and how this manifests itself to forming their viewpoints.
 We’re so easily offended in our world today that if we could lay down the offence and see what has been said, we would realise we are all human. If we could just get back to the belief that we are human and have a baseline level of respect for one another, we would probably see things in the world change.
   
 BEST MOMENTS 
 “We can be content but not satisfied.”
 “I’m content with the journey because I understand that the prize of all of this is in the process of getting there.”
 “I’ve been reminded about how different we all are.”
 “To love you have got to respect, you have got to honour.”

      <title>E231: “My Mission Is To Bring Joy Back To Education” - Danny Brassell Interview.</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/danny-brassell</link>
      <description>The inspirational Dr Danny Brassell joins the show today to share the reason why he dedicates his life to inspiring people around the world to achieve greater happiness in their lives as well as sharing his passion for reading. Together, they discuss how we can bring joy back into education, why it is important to look at things from other peoples’ perspectives and why you don’t have competition, only potential collaborators.
  
 KEY TAKEAWAYS 
  It doesn't matter what you read, what matters is how much you read. It doesn't matter if you are reading James Joyce or James And The Giant Peach, people who read more will be able to read better. We will get more success with children of all ages if we base reading on their interests.
 Think of a book like a piece of food, if you take a bite and don’t like it then you put it down, if you don’t like the first chapter in a book you are probably not going to like the second chapter. There were over 4 million books written last year in English, don’t waste your time on a book you’re not interested in.
 Every person in the world has different points of view. We always look at things from our perspective. We can learn so much from other people if we just put our egos aside.
 You have to guard yourself, you're the same today as you'll be in five years except for two things, the people you meet and the books you read. Make sure you make wise choices by surrounding yourself with people that lift you and make sure you fill your mind with things that also build you up.
 You have no competition, only potential collaborators. You can talk about the same thing as somebody else but in a different way. Just because you’ve heard one song does not mean you should only listen to that one song. Everybody has their take on things.
   
 BEST MOMENTS 
 “My mission is to bring joy back into education.”
 “Travel is the most important thing in education.”
 “you’re the same today as you'll be in five years except for two things, the people you meet and the books you read.”
 ABOUT THE GUEST 
 Danny inspires audiences around the world to achieve greater performance, engagement and happiness by discovering their motivation. Infusing humour, inspiration and simple techniques to initiate positive change – both at home and in the workplace – Danny has been dubbed “Jim Carrey with a PhD” for his high-energy, world-class keynotes, seminars and customized retreats.

      <itunes:summary>The inspirational Dr Danny Brassell joins the show today to share the reason why he dedicates his life to inspiring people around the world to achieve greater happiness in their lives as well as sharing his passion for reading. Together, they discuss how we can bring joy back into education, why it is important to look at things from other peoples’ perspectives and why you don’t have competition, only potential collaborators.
  
 KEY TAKEAWAYS 
  It doesn't matter what you read, what matters is how much you read. It doesn't matter if you are reading James Joyce or James And The Giant Peach, people who read more will be able to read better. We will get more success with children of all ages if we base reading on their interests.
 Think of a book like a piece of food, if you take a bite and don’t like it then you put it down, if you don’t like the first chapter in a book you are probably not going to like the second chapter. There were over 4 million books written last year in English, don’t waste your time on a book you’re not interested in.
 Every person in the world has different points of view. We always look at things from our perspective. We can learn so much from other people if we just put our egos aside.
 You have to guard yourself, you're the same today as you'll be in five years except for two things, the people you meet and the books you read. Make sure you make wise choices by surrounding yourself with people that lift you and make sure you fill your mind with things that also build you up.
 You have no competition, only potential collaborators. You can talk about the same thing as somebody else but in a different way. Just because you’ve heard one song does not mean you should only listen to that one song. Everybody has their take on things.
   
 BEST MOMENTS 
 “My mission is to bring joy back into education.”
 “Travel is the most important thing in education.”
 “you’re the same today as you'll be in five years except for two things, the people you meet and the books you read.”

      <title>E230: “I Find Myself Fascinating.” - Nick Simmonds Interview</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/nick-simmonds</link>
      <description>Nick Simmonds is an experienced coach and trainer who has been coaching since 2002 who has gone on to found Dynamic Coaching. In this episode of Fire In The Belly, Nick and Pete discuss the power of the brain, the evolution of human behaviour and the importance of taking risks. 
  
 KEY TAKEAWAYS 
  There is so much we are yet to learn and yet to know. Every single generation since history began, has been at the cutting edge of knowledge. The further we have gone on the more we can look back and see with certainty, how things have happened. When we look forward to the future we can’t do that, because there is no certainty about what will happen in the future. 
 So much of our behaviour is evolutionary. Human beings have been around for over 2.5 million years, which is about 165,000 generations. Many of these were hunter-gatherers. So much of our behaviour is dictated by our hunter-gatherer genes and conditioning. 
 One can’t know the benefit of taking a risk. The only thing we know for certain is that we don’t know what would happen if we took the risk. How can you bring the risk down to a lower level so that it is easier to do?
 We’re blessed with ownership of the most complex organism in the known universe, and the irony of not being able to get our heads around how complex our brain is is mindblowing. It is so incredible, yet part of its fabric can be used against somebody.
 We’re all being manipulated and influenced all the time. The adverts that we’re getting and seeing what our friends like or dislike are all influential. We are only aware of what is happening to us a fraction of the time and therefore the potential that we have is huge. 
   
 BEST MOMENTS 
 “It is incredible, your brain.”
 “I find people fascinating and I find myself fascinating.” 
 “The irony of not being able to get our head around how complex our brain is is mindblowing.”

      <title>E229: “We All Want To Be Valued.” - Maureen O'Shaughnessy</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/maureen-o-shaughnessy</link>
      <description>Maureen O’Shaughnessy is on a mission to connect the dots between education, belonging and youth empowerment and today, she joins Pete to discuss exactly how she’s doing it. They discuss why all children should have the opportunity to discover their passion, how schools can encourage creativity and why it is important to take an active interest in children's passions.
  
 KEY TAKEAWAYS 
  All children should have the opportunity to unpack how they learn and what their interests are. Some children feel defeated, don’t own who they are and they feel lost once they have graduated high school. If we can figure out our passions, strengths and what upsets us and put that together, we can create project-based learning to help children go after their passions.
 Some children who have become great at testing at school aren't good at life interacting with others or at knowing who they are. Children are then encouraged to go to college when they are unsure of their passions and people wonder why they are floundering and unhappy.
 Schools and families could be doing a lot to encourage children to believe they are amazing. Taking an active interest in what they are fascinated by, and spurring on their strengths can help children.
 Memorization is short term, using short term memory to pass tests, is that really what we want from our children? Or is there a way to level the playing fields and show lots of ways of demonstrating knowledge and lots of ways to give credit to children?
 The opposite of hate is love. When we are in that love zone we are seeing others with empathy and seeking to understand. When we have project-based learning, longer chunks of time and mentors we can build an empathetic community.
 Relationships make hard work worth it. Relationships are also win-win for students and teachers. Getting to know children over multiple years and having the ability to guide children rather than being the expert is so beautiful.
   
 BEST MOMENTS 
 “Why would we want to kill creativity? Now more than ever we need kids creating and solving for the jam we have gotten the world in.”
 “We don’t find ways to nurture the ‘I am amazing’”
 “We all want to be valued.”

      <itunes:summary>Maureen O’Shaughnessy is on a mission to connect the dots between education, belonging and youth empowerment and today, she joins Pete to discuss exactly how she’s doing it. They discuss why all children should have the opportunity to discover their passion, how schools can encourage creativity and why it is important to take an active interest in children's passions.
  
 KEY TAKEAWAYS 
  All children should have the opportunity to unpack how they learn and what their interests are. Some children feel defeated, don’t own who they are and they feel lost once they have graduated high school. If we can figure out our passions, strengths and what upsets us and put that together, we can create project-based learning to help children go after their passions.
 Some children who have become great at testing at school aren't good at life interacting with others or at knowing who they are. Children are then encouraged to go to college when they are unsure of their passions and people wonder why they are floundering and unhappy.
 Schools and families could be doing a lot to encourage children to believe they are amazing. Taking an active interest in what they are fascinated by, and spurring on their strengths can help children.
 Memorization is short term, using short term memory to pass tests, is that really what we want from our children? Or is there a way to level the playing fields and show lots of ways of demonstrating knowledge and lots of ways to give credit to children?
 The opposite of hate is love. When we are in that love zone we are seeing others with empathy and seeking to understand. When we have project-based learning, longer chunks of time and mentors we can build an empathetic community.
 Relationships make hard work worth it. Relationships are also win-win for students and teachers. Getting to know children over multiple years and having the ability to guide children rather than being the expert is so beautiful.
   
 BEST MOMENTS 
 “Why would we want to kill creativity? Now more than ever we need kids creating and solving for the jam we have gotten the world in.”
 “We don’t find ways to nurture the ‘I am amazing’”
 “We all want to be valued.”

      <title>E228: “I Want To Help People Turn Their Lives Around” - Zachary Babcock Interview.</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/zach-babcock</link>
      <description>Zachary Babcock, host of top-rated Apple podcast ‘Underdog Empowerment’ joins the show to share his story of how he went from spending 5 years in prison to building a six-figure business. Together they discuss how ‘fire in the belly’ is to have a burning desire to achieve your dreams, how you can’t control what happens in life, only how you react to change and the importance of knowing when you need to ask for help.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS 
  Fire in the belly is the burning feeling in you where you have the urge to go out into the world and achieve your dreams. It is not like an interest or a hobby, you are determined to go and turn your dream into a reality and make it happen no matter what odds are stacked against you.
 Quit blaming other people for your problems and take ownership of each and every single thing in your life. Everything that is wrong in your life, is your responsibility and everything that is right with your life is also your doing.
 Whilst luck may play a small part in things, you control the reality of your situation. Whilst you can’t control everything you can decide to be miserable about your life or you can choose to rebuild your life, be strong and help others that have gone through similar things.
 When you hit that six-figure mark, you have found financial freedom. You have the ability to create systems to remove yourself from the majority of the company so that you are able to spend your time spending quality time with those around you.
 Don’t let your ego get in the way of owning up to your mistakes and what you are doing to fix it. We are all human and we all make mistakes. Whenever you can share your mistakes, you have the opportunity to build stronger relationships with your audience.
 You are one person, and just like everybody else you only have 24 hours in a day. There is only so much you as an individual can do and eventually you will reach a point where you can no longer go forward without other people. The sooner you realise that the faster you can grow.
 Eliminate, automate, delegate. Look at your tasks and ask yourself if you can eliminate the task, if you can’t, ask yourself whether you can automate the process. If the task cannot be automated, delegate it to another member of staff. A business is built to serve you not you to serve it. If nobody else can do the task except you, then those are the ones to focus on.
   
 BEST MOMENTS 
 “I learned through experience and making mistakes on how to meet the right people.”
 “I want to be able to offer resources to come out and be on the fast track to turning their life around.”
 “I definitely had imposter syndrome. I think everybody has that.”
 “A business is built to serve you not you to serve it.”
  
  
  
 ABOUT THE GUEST 
 “From over 5 years in prison to building a 6 figure business, my name is Zach Babcock, and I help entrepreneurs launch, grow, and monetize top-shelf passive income businesses and personal brands.I interview celebrities and industry leaders on the top-rated Apple Podcast, Underdog Empowerment, and I have a broad perspective from both extremes of life.”

 ABOUT THE HOST
 John Paul Reilly A dyslexic businessman who left school just before his 16th birthday. Barely able to read and write, to the point that at exam time one of the teachers had to read the questions out to him (and then write down his answers in every exam). Written off like most kids who struggled at school and being told by his woodwork teacher he “was nothing and would amount to nothing” he now runs a multi award winning company in the construction industry . A loud but shy person who knew he wanted to achieve great things with no clue what business he wanted to do but knew that’s what he wanted. With his first business started at age 14, to now, he has learned most things the hard way. Now the owner of multiple business with one being multi award winning, John Paul has been in business over many years sharing what he has learned over this time mainly the hard way.

      <title>E227: “It Is A Powerful Piece.” - Jacqui Taaffe Interview.</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/it-is-a-powerful-piece-jacqui-taaffe-interview</link>
      <description>Jacqui Taaffe, author of “Inspire, Heal, Empower: A True Story Of Finding Your Voice Breaking The Silence and Trusting One's Knowing’ joins the show today to discuss her decision to break her silence on a traumatic experience that happened to her as a young girl, and how she hopes this can inspire others to do the same. Jacqui and Pete discuss coping mechanisms, how to move forward and how her book can help others. 
 KEY TAKEAWAYS 
  When you have doubt, coping mechanisms can help you to have peace of mind, however, the moment the doubt is removed you can see the truth. 
 Whether we intend to or not, we instantly arrive at the definition of a person when we give them a label. When you think of a Doctor, Teacher or Coach, you instantly conjure up a picture of what behaviour is expected of them and whether you can trust them or not. 
 Some people will go around blaming themselves for somebody else's bad behaviour. They will suppress their talents and gifts because they have a deeply rooted belief that they are not powerful enough as a consequence of their experiences. This book will shine a light on that and see that they can make a shift in their mindset. 
 We only get something when we have experienced something first-hand. From then, you are only going forward; you are no longer where you were. You have taken a leap and once you’ve taken that leap, the momentum starts. 
 Having an awareness of what happened to you, what was taken from you and where you belong is important. So many people out there struggle to accept that somebody else came in and interfered with them and their life. Give that power back, that is powerful. 
   
 BEST MOMENTS 
 “If you are in trouble or if you need someone to support, I am the woman to come and do that for you.”
 “I inspire myself.” 
 “It is a powerful piece. It is inspiring for a difficult subject.”
 “You are not your thoughts.” 
  
 ABOUT THE GUEST 
 Inspire Heal Empower: A TRUE STORY OF FINDING YOUR VOICE BREAKING THE SILENCE &amp; TRUSTING ONE’S KNOWIN
 “This is my story - in 1984 at the age of 15 years old, I was admitted for an eye operation into a hospital. Whilst in hospital I was made to undergo, without my consent, what I would for many years call an inappropriate medical examination. It has taken many years for me to break the silence that surrounds that day and give what happened to me its correct title and name - sexual assault. I also share some of my writings, poems and the tools that I use and which are intended to INSPIRE, HEAL &amp; EMPOWER others. With my life experiences and my coaching skills, I have been able to finally look at, deal with and work through the mental and emotional challenges that trauma caused. And to let it go back to who it truly belongs to, the person who chose to violate and sexually assaulting a 15-year-old girl. Jacqui Taaffe is an executive life coach, mentor, educator and trainer with over 25 years managerial experience in the development and progression of people.”

      <itunes:summary>Jacqui Taaffe, author of “Inspire, Heal, Empower: A True Story Of Finding Your Voice Breaking The Silence and Trusting One's Knowing’ joins the show today to discuss her decision to break her silence on a traumatic experience that happened to her as a young girl, and how she hopes this can inspire others to do the same. Jacqui and Pete discuss coping mechanisms, how to move forward and how her book can help others. 
 KEY TAKEAWAYS 
  When you have doubt, coping mechanisms can help you to have peace of mind, however, the moment the doubt is removed you can see the truth. 
 Whether we intend to or not, we instantly arrive at the definition of a person when we give them a label. When you think of a Doctor, Teacher or Coach, you instantly conjure up a picture of what behaviour is expected of them and whether you can trust them or not. 
 Some people will go around blaming themselves for somebody else's bad behaviour. They will suppress their talents and gifts because they have a deeply rooted belief that they are not powerful enough as a consequence of their experiences. This book will shine a light on that and see that they can make a shift in their mindset. 
 We only get something when we have experienced something first-hand. From then, you are only going forward; you are no longer where you were. You have taken a leap and once you’ve taken that leap, the momentum starts. 
 Having an awareness of what happened to you, what was taken from you and where you belong is important. So many people out there struggle to accept that somebody else came in and interfered with them and their life. Give that power back, that is powerful. 
   
 BEST MOMENTS 
 “If you are in trouble or if you need someone to support, I am the woman to come and do that for you.”
 “I inspire myself.” 
 “It is a powerful piece. It is inspiring for a difficult subject.”
 “You are not your thoughts.” 
  
 ABOUT THE GUEST 
 Inspire Heal Empower: A TRUE STORY OF FINDING YOUR VOICE BREAKING THE SILENCE &amp; TRUSTING ONE’S KNOWIN
 “This is my story - in 1984 at the age of 15 years old, I was admitted for an eye operation into a hospital. Whilst in hospital I was made to undergo, without my consent, what I would for many years call an inappropriate medical examination. It has taken many years for me to break the silence that surrounds that day and give what happened to me its correct title and name - sexual assault. I also share some of my writings, poems and the tools that I use and which are intended to INSPIRE, HEAL &amp; EMPOWER others. With my life experiences and my coaching skills, I have been able to finally look at, deal with and work through the mental and emotional challenges that trauma caused. And to let it go back to who it truly belongs to, the person who chose to violate and sexually assaulting a 15-year-old girl. Jacqui Taaffe is an executive life coach, mentor, educator and trainer with over 25 years managerial experience in the development and progression of people.”

      <title>E226: : “Entertainers Are Entrepreneurs And Entrepreneurs Should Be Entertaining.” Brimstone Interview</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/interview-with-brimstone</link>
      <description>Professional wrestler, actor, radio host and author, Brimstone joins The Mighty Pete today to share his story and how he went from childhood actor to creating a 30-year career in the entertainment industry. Together they discuss the hard work that goes into being an entrepreneur and entertainer, the importance of owning your IP and why you should never fear failure. 
 KEY TAKEAWAYS 
  Entertainers are entrepreneurs and entrepreneurs should be entertaining. Entrepreneurs are working a lot harder than the people who work 9-5 often think that they are. It is not all fun and games.
 Don’t be afraid of failure. Failure is a huge part of success, you cannot have success without failure. When things go wrong, you learn from it and you utilise those seeds of knowledge to plant and move forward ten steps.
 If you fail and wallow in your failure, you have lost. Take a few steps back from the situation and evaluate what went wrong, how it went wrong and figure out what you have to do to move forward and succeed.
 Fire in the belly is to have determination. Your fire in the belly is also the legacy that you leave behind. You want people to remember you for years to come.
 Not owning your IP and your trademarks means that you could encounter some difficulties in the future if somebody decided to take your ideas. It is the equivalent of working a 9-5 for 30 years and losing your job, having nothing to show for it.
  BEST MOMENTS 
 “Entertainers are entrepreneurs and entrepreneurs should be entertaining.”
 “If you’re not your biggest fan then nobody else will be.”
 “You can’t be in someone else's shoes unless you have walked in them too.”
 ​​“I live my way.”
 ABOUT THE GUEST 
 Brimstone has had a successful and rewarding career spanning well over three decades; participating in numerous entertainment fields boasting a list of titles including a professional wrestler, radio host, actor, voice actor, author, musician, philanthropist, food critic, horror model, and comic book/animated/children‟s book/video game hero. He's been called a Renaissance man by many, but more accurately described as an entertainment entrepreneur.

      <title>E225: “You Cannot Give What You Don’t Have.” Interview with Robert Riopel</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/interview-with-robert-riopel</link>
      <description>Best selling author, podcast host and serial entrepreneur, Robert Raymond Riopel joins the show today to discuss how he has helped thousands of open-minded people take action and make their dreams become a reality. Together they discuss the importance of surrounding yourself with growth-minded people, why it is okay to be selfish sometimes and why the greatest way to have success is to be willing to accept help.
  
 KEY TAKEAWAYS 
  If you are surrounded by people that are all complainers, you are going to be a complainer too because you are all like-minded. You want to surround yourself with growth-minded people. A growth-minded person is somebody who will be there to lift you when you stumble. They will also be the ones who are willing to have that tough conversation with you when you need it.
 When you are truly living your greatness, you may think you know who you are impacting but you may never fully know and you don’t have to know. When you are living your passion, there may be people being impacted by what you are doing and you don’t even realise, that is one of the greatest joys.
 You cannot give what you don’t have and you have to be willing to be selfish about that. If you don’t take care of yourself, how can you truly give the best you have? Pampered time is critical.
 Why do we think that we have to do everything on our own? As children, we are told that we need to figure things out by ourselves. No wonder we think we have to do it all by ourselves because it is ingrained into us.
 The greatest way to have success is to be willing to admit that you don’t know what you don’t know, find somebody good at it and get them to do that.
   
 BEST MOMENTS 
 “I wouldn’t be here today if it wasn’t for the ups and downs.”
 “I am no different than anybody else.”
 “You cannot give what you don’t have.”
 “Why do we think we have to do everything on our own?”

      <itunes:summary>Best selling author, podcast host and serial entrepreneur, Robert Raymond Riopel joins the show today to discuss how he has helped thousands of open-minded people take action and make their dreams become a reality. Together they discuss the importance of surrounding yourself with growth-minded people, why it is okay to be selfish sometimes and why the greatest way to have success is to be willing to accept help.
  
 KEY TAKEAWAYS 
  If you are surrounded by people that are all complainers, you are going to be a complainer too because you are all like-minded. You want to surround yourself with growth-minded people. A growth-minded person is somebody who will be there to lift you when you stumble. They will also be the ones who are willing to have that tough conversation with you when you need it.
 When you are truly living your greatness, you may think you know who you are impacting but you may never fully know and you don’t have to know. When you are living your passion, there may be people being impacted by what you are doing and you don’t even realise, that is one of the greatest joys.
 You cannot give what you don’t have and you have to be willing to be selfish about that. If you don’t take care of yourself, how can you truly give the best you have? Pampered time is critical.
 Why do we think that we have to do everything on our own? As children, we are told that we need to figure things out by ourselves. No wonder we think we have to do it all by ourselves because it is ingrained into us.
 The greatest way to have success is to be willing to admit that you don’t know what you don’t know, find somebody good at it and get them to do that.
   
 BEST MOMENTS 
 “I wouldn’t be here today if it wasn’t for the ups and downs.”
 “I am no different than anybody else.”
 “You cannot give what you don’t have.”
 “Why do we think we have to do everything on our own?”

      <title>E224: “The Setback Is Just A Set Up For My Comeback.” - Mike Duffy Interview</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/interview-with-mike-duffy</link>
      <description>Mike Duffy, CEO of Happiness Wealth Management and public speaker joins the Fire In The Belly podcast today to share how the loss of his mother at age 17 sent him on a journey to regaining his happiness. They discuss how life’s tragedies can often help create beautiful things, how purpose plus progress equals happiness and how the law of reciprocity can aid a long and happy marriage.
  
 KEY TAKEAWAYS 
  Sometimes in life, it is tragedies that help create beautiful things. A lot of times in life, if you look at the silver lining, some of the hardest things that happen to you, become the greatest things that happen to you if you choose to go the right route.
 Purpose plus progress equals happiness. You have to identify the purposes in your life, we all have many of these. Then, as you make progress in those purposes, that is when happiness shows up.
 There are two types of happiness. There is platonic happiness whereby you go out and drink; take an expensive vacation or go shopping and spend a lot of money that grant you temporary happiness. Then, there is a thing called sustainable happiness, which is the happiness you get as a result of giving to others.
 Every year you should write down your goals. Revisit your goals during the year so that you can go back and write down the date when you achieved the goal. There is something extremely rewarding when it comes to ticking off your goals.
 Resilience is such an important skill for people to understand. You can either treat the bad things that have happened to you as painful or you can look at them as happening for you. Look at these situations and see how much stronger they have made you. The setback is just a set-up for your comeback.
 When you are in a relationship, especially a marriage, you always want to put the other person before yourself. The law of reciprocity states that if you are good to somebody, they want to be good to you. So why wouldn’t you want to be good to your partner? It will come back to you.
   
 BEST MOMENTS 
 “I tried to figure out a way of how I could regain my happiness.”
 “This life is very short.”
 “This setback is just a set-up for my comeback.”
 “ Bring the energy! If you want to convey the message, convey your energy and people will listen to you!”

      <title>E223: “When It Comes To Loving Myself, I am Still Learning.” - Andrea Johnson Interview</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/interview-with-andrea-johnson</link>
      <description>Optimism expert and professional encourager, Andrea Johnson joins the show today to share her journey and how she went from battling depression and bulimia to teaching and empowering others. Together they discuss how being true to yourself can help you realise what you’re capable of, how change is never easy and the importance of seeing things from other peoples’ perspectives.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS 
  Fire in the belly is a burning desire. Your fire in the belly starts with you, the journey that you have taken and the journey you are going to take others on. Fire in the belly is to not be trapped or captive to other people's narratives of what your life is supposed to be and the freedom you have from that.
 No change is easy. Being able to talk through your struggles with people that understand is helpful to be able to push through things. If we don’t work through our feelings that is when we end up with symptoms of mental health illnesses.
 If you have lost a loved one, no matter how ‘prepared’ you think you may be, you are never fully prepared. There is always a grief to come.
 We have a glimpse of what we are capable of. Our environment and our willingness to be true and honest with ourselves helps us to realise what we are capable of.
 None of us truly understand our potential or how big we are or how big we could be if we put our mind to it. This is extremely terrifying and exciting at the same time. It is more exciting to know that I set my paycheck.
 To be able to see things from other perspectives than your own you need to be able to step back and understand that this persons perspective is not harming you. Being willing to do that gives you the ability to connect with people you otherwise would not have done.
  BEST MOMENTS
 “I was always the black sheep.”
 “ I am constantly working on giving myself grace.”
 “When it comes to truly loving myself, I am still learning.”
 “I set my boundaries, I move in this direction based on what I know about myself.”
  
  ABOUT THE GUEST 
 Hi there, I’m Andrea Johnson,  and I'm an Optimism Expert and Professional Encourager. My mission of helping others find true freedom is expressed through coaching, motivational speaking, podcasting and building a global community of women, growing through following my six tenets of Intentional Optimism. I spent my entire childhood and adolescence battling weight gain and, ultimately, bulimia and depression.  As an adult, I found several tools to help me manage, including gastric bypass surgery, years of antidepressants and counselling. In 2008, I was diagnosed with early menopause (at age 37) and told I had a 13% chance of a live birth using IVF. Then, in Feb. 2017, my mother finished her 15-year fight with breast cancer, and I finally sat down and truly walked through all the pain and anxiety and emerged, as if from a crucible, with a new life philosophy - Intentional Optimism. Now, I teach others to grow, lead and succeed, using the six tenets of (Optimistic, Present, Courageous, Energetic, Wise and Intentional), through coaching, speaking and training.  My mission is to empower other women who have been told they are "too much" or "too strong," to be as BIG as they are created to be. Women lead in unique and glorious ways, and I'm here to help them do just that. Additionally, I am certified by the John Maxwell Team, an international Leadership Coaching organization, and her philosophy, Intentional Optimism, is a comprehensive approach to Personal Growth and Leadership Training viewed through the lens of hope.

      <itunes:subtitle>“When It Comes To Loving Myself, I am Still Learning.” - Andrea Johnson Interview</itunes:subtitle>
      <itunes:summary>Optimism expert and professional encourager, Andrea Johnson joins the show today to share her journey and how she went from battling depression and bulimia to teaching and empowering others. Together they discuss how being true to yourself can help you realise what you’re capable of, how change is never easy and the importance of seeing things from other peoples’ perspectives.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS 
  Fire in the belly is a burning desire. Your fire in the belly starts with you, the journey that you have taken and the journey you are going to take others on. Fire in the belly is to not be trapped or captive to other people's narratives of what your life is supposed to be and the freedom you have from that.
 No change is easy. Being able to talk through your struggles with people that understand is helpful to be able to push through things. If we don’t work through our feelings that is when we end up with symptoms of mental health illnesses.
 If you have lost a loved one, no matter how ‘prepared’ you think you may be, you are never fully prepared. There is always a grief to come.
 We have a glimpse of what we are capable of. Our environment and our willingness to be true and honest with ourselves helps us to realise what we are capable of.
 None of us truly understand our potential or how big we are or how big we could be if we put our mind to it. This is extremely terrifying and exciting at the same time. It is more exciting to know that I set my paycheck.
 To be able to see things from other perspectives than your own you need to be able to step back and understand that this persons perspective is not harming you. Being willing to do that gives you the ability to connect with people you otherwise would not have done.
  BEST MOMENTS
 “I was always the black sheep.”
 “ I am constantly working on giving myself grace.”
 “When it comes to truly loving myself, I am still learning.”
 “I set my boundaries, I move in this direction based on what I know about myself.”
  
  ABOUT THE GUEST 
 Hi there, I’m Andrea Johnson,  and I'm an Optimism Expert and Professional Encourager. My mission of helping others find true freedom is expressed through coaching, motivational speaking, podcasting and building a global community of women, growing through following my six tenets of Intentional Optimism. I spent my entire childhood and adolescence battling weight gain and, ultimately, bulimia and depression.  As an adult, I found several tools to help me manage, including gastric bypass surgery, years of antidepressants and counselling. In 2008, I was diagnosed with early menopause (at age 37) and told I had a 13% chance of a live birth using IVF. Then, in Feb. 2017, my mother finished her 15-year fight with breast cancer, and I finally sat down and truly walked through all the pain and anxiety and emerged, as if from a crucible, with a new life philosophy - Intentional Optimism. Now, I teach others to grow, lead and succeed, using the six tenets of (Optimistic, Present, Courageous, Energetic, Wise and Intentional), through coaching, speaking and training.  My mission is to empower other women who have been told they are "too much" or "too strong," to be as BIG as they are created to be. Women lead in unique and glorious ways, and I'm here to help them do just that. Additionally, I am certified by the John Maxwell Team, an international Leadership Coaching organization, and her philosophy, Intentional Optimism, is a comprehensive approach to Personal Growth and Leadership Training viewed through the lens of hope.

      <title>E222: Interview with Joey Dumont</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/interviw</link>
      <description>DESCRIPTION 
 Author, Podcaster and Coach, Joey Dumont joins the show today to discuss his new book “The Life &amp; Times of a Recovering Douchebag” and how his trauma was the catalyst to hiding behind a pretentious mask, and how healing from this changed his outlook on life. Together they discuss how business can become a beacon on how we behave as a culture, the importance of understanding each other and why it is important to have inspiring role models.
  
 KEY TAKEAWAYS 
  Verbalising something is great. Writing it down is another way of reinforcing. Teaching it and/or calling it out, is another way to further that. You start to become far more complex in the understanding of your story. Writing may make you realise that you don’t know that much, and that will humble you and bring you to a place where you are accepting of that.
 If your heroes are assholes then who do you become? In society, we are conditioned to look up to people that have money and who work 130 hours a week, but are they the people that you want your kids to look up to? Or do you want them to look up to their teacher, who dedicates their life to teaching others?
 In religious passages, there are metaphorical truths and the stories themselves have a purpose. Whether it's the Garden Of Eden or the teachings of Buddha, the metaphorical truths embedded in all of them are very applicable when trying to be the best person we can be. They are helpful when aiming to live a life of morals, love and the serving of others.
 The world of business can start to become a beacon of how we behave as a culture. We have to stop hating each other because of political values and we have to begin to understand one another.
 You don’t always have to agree with one another, you just have to understand each other. This is a big piece of what leadership looks like. Politicians today are proving that their behaviour as a collective is untenable and disastrous.
   
 BEST MOMENTS 
 “I am trying to learn. I don’t know anything as much as I want to know it.”
 “My heroes were assholes.”
 “I never paid attention to guys like that before, they were invisible to me.”
 “You don’t always have to agree with one another, you just need to understand each other.”
  
 ABOUT THE GUEST 
 After multiple traumatic experiences, including his brother’s suicide and having his narcissistic father embezzle a large sum of money from him, his trauma manifested a parade of pretentiousness to mask the pain and insecurities he was hiding from. He was living what he thought was an amazing life until he realized he was just a d-bag and knew if he was ever going to experience the true fullness of life, he needed to change. Through the healing abilities of laughter, he was finally able to deal with the chronic anxiety, episodic depression, and other neuroses he had been too ashamed to admit. Now uses his natural ability to find humour in even the most painful circumstances to help others discover ways to rewrite the narrative in their heads, learn how to crack through insecurities, and enjoy a more authentic and fulfilling life. Those who interact with him feel less alone and more encouraged to heal from their trauma by addressing critical blockages they might be avoiding.
  
 Book Biography:
 Joey Somebody, The Life &amp; Times of a Recovering Douchebag helps readers laugh their cry out after reading stories such as Joey discovering his brother’s suicide and his father embezzling his money. Joey used tragedies in his life as a catalyst for a massive shift in how he was showing up in life. He was using a parade of pretentiousness to mask the pain, anger, and insecurities he was hiding from. He was deploying fashion, athletics, and other personas to manage a public appearance of physicality, status, and expertise. He believed when a man looked good and spoke well, little else mattered. He thought he was living an amazing life until he realized if he was going to experience the true fullness of life, he needed to change. Joey dared to deal with the anxiety, episodic depression, and other neuroses he had been too ashamed to admit. Now he uses stories from his days as a douchebag to help others discover ways to rewrite the narrative in their heads, learn how to crack through insecurities, and enjoy a fulfilling life.

      <title>E221: “My Rock Bottom Moment Was The Catalyst For Greatness.” - Justin Schneck.</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/interview-with-justin-schenck</link>
      <description>Master podcaster, named in the ‘Top 8 podcasters to watch’ in 2018, Justin Scheck joins Pete to discuss how his rock bottom moment was the catalyst to his greatness. Together they discuss how purpose can be found in your rock bottom moments, why we are always where we are supposed to be in life and why we always have control over how we react to change.
  
 KEY TAKEAWAYS 
  There are so many people in this world that think that their rock bottom moment is the end. We’re given the pains in our life as an opportunity to find our calling, a lot of the time our purpose is found in those rock bottom moments.
 A lot of people get into a victim stance and continuously ask ‘why is this happening to me?’. Change your mindset to believing that life is happening for you, not to you. If you can switch into that mindset of understanding that life is happening for you everything changes. This will change your perspective on life and your actions can take place after that.
 People need to understand that no matter what emotion they are feeling at any given time, it is ok. You have the same right to be sad as you do to be happy. Just try not to live in one of those emotions for too long.
 When you are in a moment in your life when you need to numb out your pain, when you need to escape who you are, that is not a good place to be. Your rock bottom moment is the jumping-off point into what you are supposed to be in this life. It is not the end.
 You are continuously going to hit your rock bottom moment until you realise that they are not the end. One of two things is then going to happen. You are either going to jump off into greatness, or it is going to be the end of your life.
 No matter what we do, change is going to happen and we have no control over that. However, we do have control over how we react to the change.
   
 BEST MOMENTS 
 “That's when everything changed in my life. That was the moment I realised I was chasing things, versus chasing happiness.”
 “We’re always where we are supposed to be, it is a lesson at all times.”
 “However you’re feeling at this moment, it’s ok.”
 “My rock bottom moment was the catalyst for greatness.”
 ABOUT THE GUEST 
 “Justin has been named a Top 8 Podcaster to watch in 2018 by INC.com and chosen as an ‘Icon of Influence’ in the new media space.

      <title>E220: “Watching Their Lives Transform Is So Rewarding.” - Jen Coffel</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/220-fitb</link>
      <description>Public speaker, author and business coach with over two decades of experience, Jen Coffel joins Fire In The Belly today to share her story. Together, Pete and Jen discuss how to help people share their gift by giving them entrepreneurial advice, why it is important to explore what you were put here to do and the power of visualising your future. 
  
 KEY TAKEAWAYS 
  There are so many people out there in the world that have this incredible gift and have huge expertise. The problem is that they don’t know how to do the entrepreneurial side of what is required to turn that gift into a business. Whilst they may be great at what they do, they do not have the entrepreneurial skills to generate leads, make sales and create a brand. 
 There are continual layers of limiting beliefs. We each have something we are created to do, you don’t want to limit yourself due to limited thinking. You need to explore and discover the mysteries of yourself and what you were put here to do. 
 Knowing what you want and implementing it into your life is simple, and sometimes easy however, there is always a lot of resistance. Ignorance on fire is better than knowledge on ice. 
 Know the power of visualising your future. Visualizing what you want from life is the way to change. Ensuring your conscious and subconscious minds are in agreement with what you desire will allow things to shift. 
 This physical body is a shell for our spirit. Our spirit will continue after we have passed. We are eternal and will go forward. 
  BEST MOMENTS 
 “I have built five businesses worth over 6 figures all in different industries in the last 12 months.”
 “Teaching them that and watching their lives transform is so rewarding.”
 “It was super helpful for someone like me, who had never been taught to care for my emotional self.”
 “Ignorance on fire is better than knowledge on ice.”
 ABOUT THE GUEST 
 Jen Coffel is a speaker, author, and business coach with over two decades of experience and a proven track record of six- and seven-figure success in traditional business, direct sales, and nonprofits.

   Fire in the belly is what makes you, you. What is it that you are going to continually fight for in your life? What is your passion and how are you going to meet your goals?
 We need to celebrate failure and share it with everyone, particularly in the corporate world. We seem to be afraid of admitting failure as we believe that it may impact our performance review or potential promotion. We need to reframe failure so that it adds to the value of the role you are doing and the work that the people around you are learning from. 
 It is becoming more apparent in business now of the importance of profit for purpose, innovation for purpose and adding purpose into the organisation. When we do that, we add greater value to our people and they get a better culture and they engage in the work that they are doing.
 If we give companies the opportunity for purpose, they do come out with amazing ideas. We have to give people the opportunity to prove themselves. 
 It is important to be transparent and super authentic as well as giving people a safe space to vent when things go wrong. This will allow people to come to you when they have a problem that needs solving as they understand that you have got their back. 
  BEST MOMENTS “I have a huge fire in my belly.”“This is the genius that you can find when you dig into the organisation.” “I like to observe, understand and see how people work.”“I didn’t know I knew so much!” “I am in my flow state when I’m writing.”

      <title>E218: “My Passion Is For People  Outside Of The System” - Lois Letchford Interview</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/218-fitb</link>
      <description>Having struggled with dyslexia all her life, Lois Letchford tells of how she turned her dyslexia into strength to become a literacy spokesperson for struggling learners. Together, Lois and Pete discuss learning environments that help children thrive, how emotions are critical to learning and the experiences that lead Lois to become a teacher.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS 
  Many teachers think that reading is about teaching decoding. What they often forget is all of the other foundational stuff that is needed for children to thrive.
 When it comes to teaching the lowest 30% of the population and their ability to understand and read the language on paper, teachers need to have more knowledge and more time to engage these children to help them.
 To help children thrive it is vitally important that you create a learning environment that is safe and happy. When the brain feels like this, the brain learns. The brain does not learn under stress. Tapping into children's curiosity can allow the brain to grow.
 Laughter attaches to memory. Emotions are not an optional extra in learning, emotions are critical to our learning. They are critical because they allow us to access memory.
 There are children that society just writes off and eventually, they end up in prison. If you add race and socioeconomic backgrounds into the mix, then these children will face even more adversity in their life. The chances of these children getting out of this lifestyle are even more difficult as society forgets about them.
   
 BEST MOMENTS 
 “I needed to see that to value what was going on in his brain.”
 “That was such a transformative moment in both of our lives.”
 “That experience is what drove me to become a reading teacher.”
 “As an adult, my poem was not worthy to share with the world.”
 “My passion is for people who are outside of the system.”
 ABOUT THE GUEST 
 “Lois Letchford has struggled with dyslexia her entire life. Using her dyslexia as a strength, she is now a literacy spokesperson for struggling learners who have failed behind in the traditional classroom. Through coaching and workshops at international conferences, TV appearances, and highly-rated radio stations, she uses her own story in Reversed: A Memoir to teach educators and parents how to create flexible learning environments using
 comprehensive and innovative teaching methods.”

 ABOUT THE HOST
 John Paul Reilly A dyslexic businessman who left school just before his 16th birthday. Barely able to read and write, to the point that at exam time one of the teachers had to read the questions out to him (and then write down his answers in every exam). Written off like most kids who struggled at school and being told by his woodwork teacher he “was nothing and would amount to nothing” he now runs a multi-award-winning company in the construction industry. He was a loud but shy person who knew he wanted to achieve great things with no clue what business he wanted to do but knew that’s what he wanted. With his first business started at age 14, he has learned most things the hard way. Now the owner of multiple businesses with one being multi-award-winning, John Paul has been in business for many years sharing what he has learned over this time mainly the hard way.

      <title>E217: I Take People Out Of Their Hearts And Into Their Hearts - Speaking with Patricia Lindner</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/217-fitb</link>
      <description>Highly empathetic and empowering consultant, soul advocate and mindset magician, Patricia Lindner joins the show today to discuss how she enables people to break free and feel liberated. Together they discuss the benefits of speaking your truth, why people feel guilty for wanting more and why fear is the reason we remain in the comfort zone.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS 
  Fire in the belly is something that nourishes itself. You do not have to work hard for this fire, it is hard to extinguish because it is constantly growing. When you find the fire in your belly, you know that you are aligned.
 When you are together with the right people you can speak your truth. Those people will understand what you are talking about. If there are people who don’t like what you are saying then so what? We are here to have a joyful life, it doesn’t have to be hard.
 Everyone has body wisdom. Body wisdom is subconscious wisdom that helps people to trust their feelings, their body, their intuition and allows people to heighten their senses.
 A large percentage of people don’t realise that there is more to life. Many people believe that you cannot have it all. Oftentimes, people feel guilty for feeling dissatisfied with their lives, that others are envious of, but it is okay to want more.
 Maybe we are afraid of the power and potential we have? Perhaps we are afraid of leaving people behind when we step into our potential. Fear is the reason that we stay in our comfort zone.
 Women are not only feminine and men are not only masculine. Every person no matter what their gender has both aspects inside themselves.
   
 BEST MOMENTS 
 “I take people out of their hearts and into their hearts.”
 “I want to speak my truth and not be afraid.”
 “I want to make them capable of freeing themselves.”
 “I didn’t quit, I am very proud of that.”

  Fire in the belly is something that nourishes itself. You do not have to work hard for this fire, it is hard to extinguish because it is constantly growing. When you find the fire in your belly, you know that you are aligned.
 When you are together with the right people you can speak your truth. Those people will understand what you are talking about. If there are people who don’t like what you are saying then so what? We are here to have a joyful life, it doesn’t have to be hard.
 Everyone has body wisdom. Body wisdom is subconscious wisdom that helps people to trust their feelings, their body, their intuition and allows people to heighten their senses.
 A large percentage of people don’t realise that there is more to life. Many people believe that you cannot have it all. Oftentimes, people feel guilty for feeling dissatisfied with their lives, that others are envious of, but it is okay to want more.
 Maybe we are afraid of the power and potential we have? Perhaps we are afraid of leaving people behind when we step into our potential. Fear is the reason that we stay in our comfort zone.
 Women are not only feminine and men are not only masculine. Every person no matter what their gender has both aspects inside themselves.
   
 BEST MOMENTS 
 “I take people out of their hearts and into their hearts.”
 “I want to speak my truth and not be afraid.”
 “I want to make them capable of freeing themselves.”
 “I didn’t quit, I am very proud of that.”

      <title>E216: “I Have A Mission For Growth.” -  Interviewing Jim Barnish</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/216-fitb</link>
      <description> Strategic change leader with over 15 years of leadership experience in global and integrated operations and founder and managing partner of Orchid Black, Jim Barnish Jr joins the show to share his passion for growth. Together, they discuss the importance of focusing on growing the people within your organisation, why we sometimes need to break things down to push forward and why personal growth can be transformational.
  
 KEY TAKEAWAYS 
  As a leader, If you are focused on growing the people, you will find that the people are focused on growing the company and will take care of the customers. Growing people is possible through solid leadership.
 It is a luxury to be able to take risks in life but if you are lucky enough to be able to take a step back and look at what you're wanting to accomplish in life, it can be transformational. It is life-changing to align what you're good at, what you get paid to do, the impact you have on the world and what you love to do.
 Most businesses stop at the operational and revenue layer of business. They focus on driving as many sales to the business as possible. Whilst these things are important, the real value in a business sits above the operations and revenue layer. It is important to understand what transferable value the product or service is going to have.
 Sometimes you need to break things down to push forward. It is very hard for a lot of business founders to do this, but you have to accept what is in your control and what's not. Sometimes things are outside of your control and you must go above and beyond your comfort zone to push the company forward.
 Many companies miss the boat on understanding what the right compensation package is for their employees. Providing motivational benefits that will make your employees happy will make your company great and allow your staff to please your customers the way you would.
 Focusing on your personal growth can also be transformational. It is okay to take a step back and grow yourself. Your support system is important when you are trying to grow your company and they should not be separate.
   
 BEST MOMENTS 
 “I have a mission for just plain growth.”
 “That is such a special feeling.”
 “There had to be a better way, there just had to be.”
 “That is fun when you can unlock it."
  
 ABOUT THE GUEST 
 “ I am a strategic change leader with over 15 years of leadership experience in global and integrated operations, M&amp;A, and strategic go-to-market planning. Drawing on deep operational and investment experience at a startup and scale-up businesses, I have created and curated a collection of proven, data-driven processes and methodologies to help companies build scalable and fundable VC ready solutions—accelerating organic growth.”

      <title>E215: I Like Who I Have Become.” - Geralyn Gendreau Interview</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/215-fitb</link>
      <description>Master story-teller and author Geralyn Gendreau joins the show today to share the inspiration behind her new book ‘Jungle Jean’ and how her near-death experience changed her life forever. Together, they discuss the life of Jean Liedloff, how to get into a flow state and why being human is messy!
  
 KEY TAKEAWAYS 
  In the collective unconscious, everybody has experienced everything. You can tap into the past lives of anybody and everybody if there is a reason to.
 When we are dealing with the unknowns, it is hard to say what is the absolute truth. The only real truth in the world is that everything is always changing. There is a science to prove everything, it is a challenging thing to ask people to think more deeply about things. Critical thinking is something much needed in our world.
 Everybody makes mistakes. When there is a rupture, it is as important how you repair it as how you did the damage. If you get dysregulated you have to know how to regulate yourself, that is a key skill. Being human is messy.
 There is something very beautiful about being born into a different phase of life where sensuality and sexuality morph and change as your body morphs and changes.
 We go toward what satisfies our needs and there is often confusion about what satisfies us long term and short term. Impulse control is difficult.
 There is nothing more satisfying than waking up in the morning and being in a flow state, this may not happen every day and sometimes it is a matter of being patient. The unconscious is always working on whatever it is that you want to create. When you show up consistently, it has a place to flow through.
   
 BEST MOMENTS 
 “I am my mother’s daughter.”
 “Is this your belief or is this just objective truth?”
 “Being human is messy. Let's face it, it's a mess.”
 “Stories are such a powerful teacher.”
 “I miss my precious estrogen but I do not miss the monkey on my back.”
 “When I leave, my name will still be here.”
 ABOUT THE GUEST 
 A master storyteller, author Geralyn Gendreau speaks to the core of what it means to be human, offering provocative insight into our current dilemma. As a direct result of an unusual near-death experience (elaborated in the additional info section below), Geralyn became keenly interested in the conditions that lead to optimal human development. Her studies convinced her that these conditions, little known in our society but prevalent among our tribal ancestors, create an evolutionarily appropriate (i.e.: species-specific) family structure and social ecosystem that allows human nature to work successfully. Geralyn’s inquiries into optimal mother-infant bonding and her critique of “attachment theory” provide powerful insights into how we can form enduring, harmonious love bonds as well as dynamic, high-functioning relationships in our professional lives. Geralyn spent many years under the tutelage of Jean Liedloff, author of THE CONTINUUM CONCEPT (TCC). Now a torch-bearer for Liedloff’s world-changing ideas, Geralyn is intent on creating a renaissance for TCC. First published in 1975 and still popular 46 years later, Liedloff's seminal book about her experiences living with "original peoples" deep in the jungles of South America gave birth to the baby-wearing trend and attachment parenting movement. And while TCC is widely regarded as a childrearing classic, Gendreau is quick to point out that the book is a treatise on human nature. Paradoxically, the friendship between Geralyn and her mentor became a quagmire of unmet needs and unrealistic expectations. But it was these very relationship difficulties that gave rise to Geralyn’s fascination with what she calls the blindspot phenomenon. “Most of us repeatedly shoot ourselves in the foot, unaware of how or why we are doing so. This blindspot is what makes unwanted behaviour patterns so resistant to change.” In her 2021 book, JUNGLE JEAN (the authorized biography of Jean Liedloff) Geralyn explores these and many other topics in depth.
 Audience takeaways include:
 1) insight into the core wound that alienates us from our true self keeps us separate from others 
 2) a radically new understanding of the underlying cause of our struggles and stubborn blocks
 3) a glimpse of common “blind spots” that keep people stuck and prevent them from living with the wide-eyed wonder and unshakable sense of “rightness” that is our birthright
 4) an embodied experience of the subtle, stable joy that is our natural state
 5) a perceptual shift that makes it possible to let go of senseless worry and transmute the underlying anti-self feelings that feed anxiety
 6) a framework that revolutionizes problem-solving by applying the law of miracles
 7) the courage to embrace cooperation as the key to our survival as a species
  
  
 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
 At the age of 29, Geralyn nearly drowned in heavy surf after getting slammed by a rogue wave. After an unusual near-death experience and dramatic rescue, she was spared the life of a wheelchair-bound quadriplegic by a divine intervention that gave her a key to unlock the power of miracles. In addition, she was afforded a direct encounter with the sentient intelligence we call “evolution,” and allowed to glimpse the blueprint of her divine design.
  
 Geralyn believes that Liedloff's evolutionary perspective, which she revisits in JUNGLE JEAN, has the power to restore our faith in humanity. Anyone who is a mom knows a mom, or has a mom will be deeply moved by the ideas Geralyn unfolds in her writings and interviews. In her work with clients, Geralyn helps people see their self-defeating behaviours in a new light so they can begin to dismantle the false self and transform the negative ego into a source of creative juice and personal power. Her perspective on trauma and trauma healing is informed by ancient yogic practices as well as modern brain science. She has studied interpersonal neurobiology with Dr Dan Siegel, founder of Mindsight Institute.
  
 As a direct result of having worked alongside Liedloff for fifteen years, Geralyn’s worldview traces back to the Stone Age. Intent on sharing what she calls a “biological-evolutionary perspective” on our deeper nature, she believes a new understanding of what it means to be human could very well become the lifeboat we need to survive should civilization as we know it collapses.
 Biography
 A licensed psychotherapist since 1995, Geralyn is a playful, soul-provoking life coach who believes one of the keys to happiness is being able to laugh at yourself. She is the author of JUNGLE JEAN, the biography of her mentor, Jean Liedloff, who travelled into the pristine regions of the Venezuelan rainforest back in the 1950s and subsequently wrote a seminal book, THE CONTINUUM CONCEPT, which became a childrearing classic.
  
 In her work with clients, Geralyn assists adults who did not have a fully enriched infancy and childhood (i.e.: most of us), to see and feel the very real impact of “missing experiences.” The insight, understanding, and self-knowledge gained to give them new freedom and the courage to live a fully actualized life. She shows people how to "transmogrify" their everyday experience by leaning into the joy that is our natural state. Geralyn loves to share the story of how she learned to turn life’s many challenges into sources of energy rather than energy-sucking problems that put the kibosh on her life force.
  
 Geralyn has been deeply influenced by a decades-long fascination with Littlewood's Law of Miracles, which states that any individual can expect to experience an outrageous event every thirty days. She is a blackbelt martial artist, salad aficionado, and renowned hair chameleon. Her favourite brain hack is jumping out of an aeroplane.

But it was these very relationship difficulties that gave rise to Geralyn’s fascination with what she calls the blindspot phenomenon. “Most of us repeatedly shoot ourselves in the foot, unaware of how or why we are doing so. This blindspot is what makes unwanted behaviour patterns so resistant to change.” In her 2021 book, JUNGLE JEAN (the authorized biography of Jean Liedloff) Geralyn explores these and many other topics in depth.
 Audience takeaways include:
 1) insight into the core wound that alienates us from our true self keeps us separate from others 
 2) a radically new understanding of the underlying cause of our struggles and stubborn blocks
 3) a glimpse of common “blind spots” that keep people stuck and prevent them from living with the wide-eyed wonder and unshakable sense of “rightness” that is our birthright
 4) an embodied experience of the subtle, stable joy that is our natural state
 5) a perceptual shift that makes it possible to let go of senseless worry and transmute the underlying anti-self feelings that feed anxiety
 6) a framework that revolutionizes problem-solving by applying the law of miracles
 7) the courage to embrace cooperation as the key to our survival as a species
  
  
 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
 At the age of 29, Geralyn nearly drowned in heavy surf after getting slammed by a rogue wave. After an unusual near-death experience and dramatic rescue, she was spared the life of a wheelchair-bound quadriplegic by a divine intervention that gave her a key to unlock the power of miracles. In addition, she was afforded a direct encounter with the sentient intelligence we call “evolution,” and allowed to glimpse the blueprint of her divine design.
  
 Geralyn believes that Liedloff's evolutionary perspective, which she revisits in JUNGLE JEAN, has the power to restore our faith in humanity. Anyone who is a mom knows a mom, or has a mom will be deeply moved by the ideas Geralyn unfolds in her writings and interviews. In her work with clients, Geralyn helps people see their self-defeating behaviours in a new light so they can begin to dismantle the false self and transform the negative ego into a source of creative juice and personal power. Her perspective on trauma and trauma healing is informed by ancient yogic practices as well as modern brain science. She has studied interpersonal neurobiology with Dr Dan Siegel, founder of Mindsight Institute.
  
 As a direct result of having worked alongside Liedloff for fifteen years, Geralyn’s worldview traces back to the Stone Age. Intent on sharing what she calls a “biological-evolutionary perspective” on our deeper nature, she believes a new understanding of what it means to be human could very well become the lifeboat we need to survive should civilization as we know it collapses.
 Biography
 A licensed psychotherapist since 1995, Geralyn is a playful, soul-provoking life coach who believes one of the keys to happiness is being able to laugh at yourself. She is the author of JUNGLE JEAN, the biography of her mentor, Jean Liedloff, who travelled into the pristine regions of the Venezuelan rainforest back in the 1950s and subsequently wrote a seminal book, THE CONTINUUM CONCEPT, which became a childrearing classic.
  
 In her work with clients, Geralyn assists adults who did not have a fully enriched infancy and childhood (i.e.: most of us), to see and feel the very real impact of “missing experiences.” The insight, understanding, and self-knowledge gained to give them new freedom and the courage to live a fully actualized life. She shows people how to "transmogrify" their everyday experience by leaning into the joy that is our natural state. Geralyn loves to share the story of how she learned to turn life’s many challenges into sources of energy rather than energy-sucking problems that put the kibosh on her life force.
  
 Geralyn has been deeply influenced by a decades-long fascination with Littlewood's Law of Miracles, which states that any individual can expect to experience an outrageous event every thirty days. She is a blackbelt martial artist, salad aficionado, and renowned hair chameleon. Her favourite brain hack is jumping out of an aeroplane.

        <![CDATA[<p>Master story-teller and author Geralyn Gendreau joins the show today to share the inspiration behind her new book ‘Jungle Jean’ and how her near-death experience changed her life forever. Together, they discuss the life of Jean Liedloff, how to get into a flow state and why being human is messy!</p> <p> </p> <p><strong>KEY TAKEAWAYS </strong></p> <ul> <li>In the collective unconscious, everybody has experienced everything. You can tap into the past lives of anybody and everybody if there is a reason to.</li> <li>When we are dealing with the unknowns, it is hard to say what is the absolute truth. The only real truth in the world is that everything is always changing. There is a science to prove everything, it is a challenging thing to ask people to think more deeply about things. Critical thinking is something much needed in our world.</li> <li>Everybody makes mistakes. When there is a rupture, it is as important how you repair it as how you did the damage. If you get dysregulated you have to know how to regulate yourself, that is a key skill. Being human is messy.</li> <li>There is something very beautiful about being born into a different phase of life where sensuality and sexuality morph and change as your body morphs and changes.</li> <li>We go toward what satisfies our needs and there is often confusion about what satisfies us long term and short term. Impulse control is difficult.</li> <li>There is nothing more satisfying than waking up in the morning and being in a flow state, this may not happen every day and sometimes it is a matter of being patient. The unconscious is always working on whatever it is that you want to create. When you show up consistently, it has a place to flow through.</li> </ul> <p> </p> <p><strong>BEST MOMENTS </strong></p> <p>“I am my mother’s daughter.”</p> <p>“Is this your belief or is this just objective truth?”</p> <p>“Being human is messy. Let's face it, it's a mess.”</p> <p>“Stories are such a powerful teacher.”</p> <p>“I miss my precious estrogen but I do not miss the monkey on my back.”</p> <p>“When I leave, my name will still be here.”</p> <p><strong>ABOUT THE GUEST </strong></p> <p>A master storyteller, author Geralyn Gendreau speaks to the core of what it means to be human, offering provocative insight into our current dilemma. As a direct result of an unusual near-death experience (elaborated in the additional info section below), Geralyn became keenly interested in the conditions that lead to optimal human development. Her studies convinced her that these conditions, little known in our society but prevalent among our tribal ancestors, create an evolutionarily appropriate (i.e.: species-specific) family structure and social ecosystem that allows human nature to work successfully. Geralyn’s inquiries into optimal mother-infant bonding and her critique of “attachment theory” provide powerful insights into how we can form enduring, harmonious love bonds as well as dynamic, high-functioning relationships in our professional lives. Geralyn spent many years under the tutelage of Jean Liedloff, author of THE CONTINUUM CONCEPT (TCC). Now a torch-bearer for Liedloff’s world-changing ideas, Geralyn is intent on creating a renaissance for TCC. First published in 1975 and still popular 46 years later, Liedloff's seminal book about her experiences living with "original peoples" deep in the jungles of South America gave birth to the baby-wearing trend and attachment parenting movement. And while TCC is widely regarded as a childrearing classic, Gendreau is quick to point out that the book is a treatise on human nature. Paradoxically, the friendship between Geralyn and her mentor became a quagmire of unmet needs and unrealistic expectations. But it was these very relationship difficulties that gave rise to Geralyn’s fascination with what she calls the blindspot phenomenon. “Most of us repeatedly shoot ourselves in the foot, unaware of how or why we are doing so.

      <title>E214: “We Have Got To Love Ourselves Unconditionally.” - Troy Ismir Interview</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/214-fitb</link>
      <description>Spiritual warrior coach Troy Ismir joins the show today to share his inspiring vision to help people go from living in quiet desperation to divine inspiration and how you can become radically free to be yourself. They discuss the courage it takes to be true to yourself, why fire in the belly is finding true joy on the inside and how helpful it is to reach out to a loving friend, therapist or coach.
  
 KEY TAKEAWAYS 
  It takes a lot of courage to share your story. Be true to who you are on the inside, most people don’t do that. Most of us try to prove ourselves and perform for other people’s approval.
 Fire in the belly is finding true joy on the inside, no matter what anybody says about us. It shouldn’t matter where we live or what our circumstances are, finding joy on the inside is a beautiful thing. It is a working progress, and it most likely always will be.
 There will come a point in your life where you will realise that you don’t need more money or more stuff and that life is about experiences, relationships and loving ourselves.
 All that we are required to do is to go out there and go on an introspective journey and do our best to serve the world. Now more than ever we need men and women to step into their power. We all have something to give in the world.
 We all have a ‘shadow’ side, a side to us that we do not necessarily like or that we have some shame towards. Take a step back and understand that this is how God created you. The things that you are embarrassed by or ashamed of are superpowers that you get to step into.
 There are so many battles that men go through that they try to figure out on their own. Reach out to a coach, therapist or a nonjudgmental and loving friend to let them know you are struggling. More than likely, whoever you reach out to will be facing challenges that you can help each other with. Listening is healing.
 Being radically free means being radically free to be yourself. That is when you get the joy, the peace and the ability to live a life of passion. This is when you live life fully alive.
   
 BEST MOMENTS 
 “It takes a lot of courage to share your story.”
 “We have got to love ourselves unconditionally.”
 “I lived my whole life trying to get people to get me”
 “I don’t want to suffer anymore.”
 “My vision is to create a community of global, spiritual warriors that are willing to go on an introspective journey for a transgenic course greater than ourselves.”

      <title>E213: “I Want To Change The Way Women And Men Work Together” -  Beate Chelette Interview</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/213-fitb</link>
      <description>The Growth Architect, Author of Amazon bestseller ‘Happy Women, Happy World’ and founder of ‘The Women’s Code’, Beate Chelette joins Might Pete in today‘s episode, to share her story of how she overcame financial struggles and sold her multi-million dollar company to Bill Gates, as well as how she endeavours to change the way women and men work together. They also discuss humanising the workplace, why you should only focus on your cause and the importance of trust.
  
 KEY TAKEAWAYS 
  We need to humanise the workplace. There is only a small percentage that can thrive in the current system of moving from kindergarten to high school to college and then to work within the corporate world. This needs to change.
 You don’t know the second step before you take the first step. When people say ‘I can’t start because I don’t know that path’, this is obvious. You cannot see the mountain top unless you get out of the forest and you are at a certain elevation. You just have to trust that it is there.
 When we go into these journeys, we have to trust that this is what we are here to do and what we are meant to do. Pay attention to how it shows up because God delivers, all the time.
 Trust is earned. People do what people need to do to save themselves. People who you often believe to be of worth, do things that are primarily beneficial for them over you. That is just human nature. Learning to trust is hard for most people.
 Unless something is your cause and this is what you are here to do, stop obsessing over it. What you do makes absolutely no difference to the situation other than make you crazy. Focus on the thing that you came here to do and make an impact in that genre because that is your cause. If you focus on all the things in the world that could be improved, you will make yourself crazy because everything can be improved.
 If you don’t know how to talk about yourself or present yourself, there is no winning right now for you. Knowing how to do this is a fundamental requirement at this time.
   
 BEST MOMENTS 
 ‘You don’t know the second step before you take the first step.’
 ‘Leadership comes from survival.’
 ‘Being different is a strength, not a yelling point.’
 ‘With that, now you can trust.’
 ‘I want to change the way women and men work together.’

      <itunes:summary>The Growth Architect, Author of Amazon bestseller ‘Happy Women, Happy World’ and founder of ‘The Women’s Code’, Beate Chelette joins Might Pete in today‘s episode, to share her story of how she overcame financial struggles and sold her multi-million dollar company to Bill Gates, as well as how she endeavours to change the way women and men work together. They also discuss humanising the workplace, why you should only focus on your cause and the importance of trust.
  
 KEY TAKEAWAYS 
  We need to humanise the workplace. There is only a small percentage that can thrive in the current system of moving from kindergarten to high school to college and then to work within the corporate world. This needs to change.
 You don’t know the second step before you take the first step. When people say ‘I can’t start because I don’t know that path’, this is obvious. You cannot see the mountain top unless you get out of the forest and you are at a certain elevation. You just have to trust that it is there.
 When we go into these journeys, we have to trust that this is what we are here to do and what we are meant to do. Pay attention to how it shows up because God delivers, all the time.
 Trust is earned. People do what people need to do to save themselves. People who you often believe to be of worth, do things that are primarily beneficial for them over you. That is just human nature. Learning to trust is hard for most people.
 Unless something is your cause and this is what you are here to do, stop obsessing over it. What you do makes absolutely no difference to the situation other than make you crazy. Focus on the thing that you came here to do and make an impact in that genre because that is your cause. If you focus on all the things in the world that could be improved, you will make yourself crazy because everything can be improved.
 If you don’t know how to talk about yourself or present yourself, there is no winning right now for you. Knowing how to do this is a fundamental requirement at this time.
   
 BEST MOMENTS 
 ‘You don’t know the second step before you take the first step.’
 ‘Leadership comes from survival.’
 ‘Being different is a strength, not a yelling point.’
 ‘With that, now you can trust.’
 ‘I want to change the way women and men work together.’
 ‘I have to focus on that which I can improve.’

      <title>E212: Audio Can Be So Powerful - Michael Sharkey Interview.</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/212-fitb</link>
      <description>Michael Sharkey, a podcast professional, radio programmer and talent coach joins the show today to discuss how he voluntarily left the media world in 2014 after 25 years and the life-changing experiences that came after. Together they discuss why audio is so powerful, how to understand your relationship with fear and why it is important to honour your fire in the belly.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS 
  Start with a podcast, and then from that podcast you can move on doing different things with video such as Zoom chats or videoing yourself promoting your podcast. You can then have your podcast transcribed which allows people to identify which parts of the episode they would like to listen to.
 In the spectrum of conversation and the dialogue we have as humans, there is something that spiritual leaders throughout history always bring up, which is, that if we spend our life helping others, we will find true happiness. Happiness doesn’t live in fancy cars or big houses, it lives when helping others.
 We all have a gift, and some people realise this and others don’t. One of the saddest things to see is people working so hard in a job they hate because they need to pay their mortgage and feed their families. That person has a mission but that mission has been suppressed by culture and society.
 Nobody is going to overcome fear. You need to understand what your relationship is with fear. Wait and see how your story unfolds and be okay with the outcome.
 Fire in the belly is passion. This means that you have a passion that you want to share as well as uncovering other people's passion. Passion is that fire. It is important to understand and honour your fire in the belly. It is an extraordinary thing and as we uncover it we find some of the answers to our bigger questions. There is a reason why people have gut instincts.
   
 BEST MOMENTS 
 “The people listening to Fire In The Belly are eavesdropping on this conversation. If we do it right, they can walk away with something that they can digest and think about regardless of where the conversation goes.”
 “Audio can be so powerful.”
 “Serving others is what brings me the most joy. It is what I love to do.”
 “The answer lies in just staying present.”
  
 ABOUT THE GUEST 
 Michael Sharkey:
 “What happens when you spend a lifetime in the media and walk away voluntarily? You hear radio differently and see the media world for its opportunities and faults. After spending 25 years in broadcast radio, running commercial radio stations (most recently for Cox Media Group), I took a sabbatical in early 2014. While the experience for me and my family was life-changing, I knew this experience would give me the distance I needed to chart a path forward for my career in radio/media. I once heard the expression, "when you're inside the bottle, you can't read the label." This applied to me when I was on the radio. When I walked away, I got outside the bottle, read the label and knew the direction to go. My takeaways from this time moving forward: Radio is still meaningful, it's just being programmed poorly (mostly by executives). Spoken word is incredibly powerful and growing daily with the rise of podcasting. If 20-34 year olds spend 82% of every day staring at their smartphone, you better make the radio experience meaningful for them on this device. Finally, if you want to bring radio to Millennials, you have to unlearn everything you've ever learned about radio and execute it completely differently. The Spotify generation wants radio (I’ve researched this), but you have to give it to them in ways you're not currently thinking of.”

      <description>Author, mentor and entrepreneur with a passion for helping others succeed, Therese Allison joins Pete today to share how she became financially free at 38 and was able to retire aged 43 to enjoy a life spending time with her children. Together they discuss the importance of being authentic in business, why you should always believe in yourself and why people are attracted to those who are true to themselves.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS 
  You have to be authentic in business and you always have to be true to yourself. Being somebody that you are not will not work for you. When you are natural and go with the flow it works better. Being true to yourself will allow your clients to have trust in you and believe that you will be honest with them no matter what.
 You have to believe in yourself and believe in what you are doing for it to happen. You can make things happen in your life as long as you believe so. When you have conviction and you put it out there, you make things happen in the world.
 When you don’t know the answer say so. You should never lie because people in business don’t like that. When you are untruthful to a client, they will never trust you again if they find out. When you make a mistake, own up to it.
 Where your mind directs, stuff will follow. Try to get rid of negative thoughts because it is not productive at all. When you are in a positive place, you practice gratitude and you can figure out where you want to go in life, amazing stuff happens.
 If you are not trying to be something else and expending energy in an artificial place, then you can just be. People are attracted to that energy which gives you the freedom to go further. It is your natural place within the universe when authenticity occurs. When you are in your natural state with the universe, people and things are attracted to you.
  BEST MOMENTS 
 “I took that ‘wanting to beat the boys’ into business.”
 “I just have a passion for helping men and women value themselves, and be true to themselves.”
 “When you don’t know the answer, say so.”
 “I came out of the womb holding a tennis racket!”
 ABOUT THE GUEST:
 To help others succeed as a "Business Cheerleader", Mentor and Author, Allison openly shares how she became financially independent at age 38 when her company (McKenna &amp; Associates) was sold to AON, and retired early at 43 to spend quality time with her children. Based on her 20-year career, Allison’s new book, "Playing for Keeps - How a 21st-century business woman beat the boys" uncovers her success secrets that she can share with your audience:
 “16 Pearls of Wisdom
 “Velvet Glove for Women” approach (using humour while being smart/firm)
 “Lucy Moments” (self-deprecating stories that broke barriers &amp; diffused egos)
 - A "Business Cheerleader", Therese loves to empower women - and men to succeed in business and life. Therese grew up with humble means and learned how to "win" by playing competitive sports in high school. PLUS - How her unknown heritage helped her “break the glass ceiling” in a “man’s world” in the 1980s and 1990s (her family bloodline is connected to the Devonshire Churchills, including Winston Churchill and Lady Diana Spencer.)

      <title>E210: You Are A Valuable Asset - Miles Wakeham Interview</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/210-fitb</link>
      <description>A self-made, financially independent entrepreneur, author and host of “The Unconstrained Podcast”, Miles Wakeham joins the show today to talk about how he left Australia to make a life for himself stateside and the ups and downs that followed. Together they discuss the importance of trusting your gut, how to value your time and why there is no reward without risk.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS 
  Success comes when preparedness meets opportunity. Trust your gut and forego everything else that is around you telling you not to. Reaching success does not come by ‘luck’, you get there by being persistent and having the ability to listen to your gut. If you don’t have faith in yourself and your ability, you will never grasp opportunities and follow them through.
 You cannot control what happens around you. The only thing that you can control is how you react to what is going on. You are the captain of your ship, whilst you may think that you know the answer to everything that is going on in life, you don’t.
 If you know your value, you understand that you are not there to just have a job, you are there to add value to help the employer reach their mission. You need to listen to what their mission is, understand it and study it. You then need to come up with how you can best serve that mission, which makes you a valuable asset, not an employee.
 We don’t understand that as humans, we only have one life to live, we don’t get a second shot at this. If we go and waste it by selling our time by the hour to somebody because we are living in fear that without that we will be poor, then we have lost the plot. The fact is, we have to realise what our true value is as individuals, once we value that, we can put a price on it. What is that value worth to your employer?
 There is no reward without risk and there is no progress without risk. The two are directly interconnected. You cannot progress as a human being without risk and you need to accept that there are risks at all points of your life. Have the courage to get through the risks but most importantly, do not let the risks dictate your life.
   
 BEST MOMENTS 
 “Next thing I knew I was a millionaire again.”
 “You are a valuable asset, not just an employee.”
 “Whilst that asset that I have built is out there, I don’t have to work.”
 “You have got to be willing to accept that risk is part of life, but you cannot let this blur your vision.”
  
  
 ABOUT THE GUEST
 Miles Wakeham - “Where do I begin.... If you want the left-side of my brain, I'm a technology advocate, engineer and software developer. Specializing in decentralized technologies incl. web, mobile and embedded. Have been a programmer since 1978. Databases are my key focus, with a heavy Data Modeling background. Linux professional and supporter of open source technologies. Systems analyst for Australian Submarine Corporation in 1980s. Moved to USA in 1989. Worked with Amgen (biotechnology) as early team member, helping build corporation from small team of 200 or so researchers and administrators to Fortune 500 corporation, with role as Development Lead in Sales &amp; Marketing group. Independently developed service management software that was #3 leading product in world sales in 2003. Founded Edgneering LLC in 2007, one of the first "cloud computing" cos in Phoenix, Arizona. Data center designer and installation for clusters of servers in three worldwide redundant locations. Assisted major pharmaceutical benefits &amp; claim processing organization from inception to over $100 million in revenue by developing web based custom software to run the majority of their operations and claim processing. Heavy emphasis in security, including HIPAA, PCI, and Military grade security systems.If you want the right side of my brain (far more interesting), I'm an extrovert, speaker/presenter, I sense opportunities and go to them, I travel the world but call Arizona my home-base, I want to help people find their own freedom (whatever that may be), and I love to talk. I host the Unconstrained Podcast and run the website https://www.beunconstrained.com I seek out investment opportunities and do everything possible to try and be a contrarian. I'm respectful of others, and enjoy a good joke.I spent decades as a musician, having been raised that way from the age of 5. My mother shoved a violin under my chin &amp; I ended up in junior symphony orchestras as a kid. Then I found that you couldn't get girls that way, so I became a guitarist and played in some semi-successful bands in California. Then I learned the art of recording and built recording studios, recorded with some major acts in Hollywood, as a contractor to Capitol Records and others in the 1990s. I compose music and still cherish those memories. My sensitivity to music seems to have morphed into a sensitivity to people, psychology &amp; opportunities, which drives me to learn more about this crazy life experience we are all on.  If you really want to know who I am, follow me on Twitter at @mylesw &amp; @beunconstrained”

Worked with Amgen (biotechnology) as early team member, helping build corporation from small team of 200 or so researchers and administrators to Fortune 500 corporation, with role as Development Lead in Sales &amp; Marketing group. Independently developed service management software that was #3 leading product in world sales in 2003. Founded Edgneering LLC in 2007, one of the first "cloud computing" cos in Phoenix, Arizona. Data center designer and installation for clusters of servers in three worldwide redundant locations. Assisted major pharmaceutical benefits &amp; claim processing organization from inception to over $100 million in revenue by developing web based custom software to run the majority of their operations and claim processing. Heavy emphasis in security, including HIPAA, PCI, and Military grade security systems.If you want the right side of my brain (far more interesting), I'm an extrovert, speaker/presenter, I sense opportunities and go to them, I travel the world but call Arizona my home-base, I want to help people find their own freedom (whatever that may be), and I love to talk. I host the Unconstrained Podcast and run the website https://www.beunconstrained.com I seek out investment opportunities and do everything possible to try and be a contrarian. I'm respectful of others, and enjoy a good joke.I spent decades as a musician, having been raised that way from the age of 5. My mother shoved a violin under my chin &amp; I ended up in junior symphony orchestras as a kid. Then I found that you couldn't get girls that way, so I became a guitarist and played in some semi-successful bands in California. Then I learned the art of recording and built recording studios, recorded with some major acts in Hollywood, as a contractor to Capitol Records and others in the 1990s. I compose music and still cherish those memories. My sensitivity to music seems to have morphed into a sensitivity to people, psychology &amp; opportunities, which drives me to learn more about this crazy life experience we are all on.  If you really want to know who I am, follow me on Twitter at @mylesw &amp; @beunconstrained”</p> <p>LinkedIn :<a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/myles-wakeham-0b918425"> </a><a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/myles-wakeham-0b918425">https://www.linkedin.com/in/myles-wakeham-0b918425</a></p> <p>The Unconstrained Podcast" :<a href="https://www.beunconstrained.com/podcast"> </a><a href="https://www.beunconstrained.com/podcast">https://www.beunconstrained.com/podcast</a></p> <p>Website:<a href="https://www.beunconstrained.com/"> </a><a href="https://www.beunconstrained.com/">https://www.beunconstrained.com</a></p> <p> </p> <p> </p><p><a href="https://www.facebook.com/groups/430218374211579/">Support the show: https://www.facebook.com/groups/430218374211579/</a></p>]]>

      <title>E209: I Am An Explorer - Pia Jansson</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/209-fitb</link>
      <description>Entrepreneur, Lifestyle Coach and self-proclaimed explorer, Pia Jansson joins the show today to discuss how she helps people feel great and how she helps them to create brighter futures for themselves. Together, they discuss how everybody has a unique, inner spark, how the biggest growth comes from the toughest trauma and why you should always surround yourself with people who accept you. 
  
 KEY TAKEAWAYS 
  You can’t label energy, it is just a feeling. When you find it, you know about it. Sometimes the energy within you changes, and you have to move on to the next chapter of your journey. Energy is very fluid.
 We all have a unique inner spark. How we express that inner spark is up to you, there is no right or wrong way to express it, it is just what feels good for you. The inner light is connected to our heart, if our heart is open there is a lot of love. How you view life and other people is completely different when your heart is open and your spark expands.
 You often see people who have been through the most horrific experiences to become the best teachers. The biggest growth comes from the hardest trauma and although it is not fun, you learn a lot.
 Different events happen in life that we cannot avoid and that we don’t always want to happen. If you think it is better to be miserable then, you can, wanting to feel better will help you create something better with your life beyond staying miserable.
 You want to be with people that can accept you and grant you being. If you are around people that critique you and say that you are wrong, they are not accepting of you and can bring you down.
 Create a life that turns you on from the boardroom to the bedroom. When you are turned on you get energy. There is no ego involved and that is when you create the most amazing things.
   
 BEST MOMENTS 
 “The red thread in my life has always been energy.”
 “Don’t you ever have a gut feeling?”
 “I am an explorer, I have gone out and explored realms beyond.”
 “You want to be with people that can accept you.”
  
 ABOUT THE GUEST 
 Pia Jansson - I help entrepreneurs, leaders, and salespeople unlock - reconnect - ignite their inner power so they can create a life and business that flows. Creating a business and building a team that helps you take it to the next level starts with getting clear on who you are and your priorities.  To create a business that prospers you need happy and engaged employees. While salary and benefits are important, engagement is the deal-breaker for both company culture (morale) and productivity. When you feel great about yourself and know the value you bring, you’ll have the confidence to create a life you truly love. My mission is to help people unlock, reconnect, and ignite their inner power so that they can create a business + life that turns them on and then spread good mojo to everyone they meet. I use a combination of CliftonStrengths®, BP10™, and GeniusU assessments to guide you along the way. Each journey is customize

      <title>E208: Change The World Through The Eyes Of The People That You Support - Sam Thiara Interview</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/208-fitb</link>
      <description>Inspirational Speaker, Educator, Writer and self proclaimed ‘Do-Gooder’, Sam Thiara joins the show today to discuss Sam’s journey to becoming the ‘difficult monk’ who has helped many people change their view of the world. Together, they discuss why obstacles are the necessary bricks on the road to success, why the more difficult the struggle, the sweeter the prize is and how even though you cannot control every situation, you can control how you react to it.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS 
  The person who needs help, has the answers within them, they just need to be unlocked. Having the person reflect, ask questions and understand what matters to them in life will help them seek out their purpose.
 If it is easy and straightforward, it is probably not meant for you. The pain that you go through provides the pleasure at the end. The more difficult the struggle, the sweeter the prize.
 Obstacles are the necessary bricks on the road to success. Never fear the obstacles, embrace them because they are part of the journey. Realise that those obstacles are placed there for a reason to help you accomplish and achieve where we need to go.
 The world is very complicated and diverse, the more you focus on trying to change the world, the more frustrated you will become. By supporting others and changing their view of the world, you have changed the world in essence.
 From the moment you wake up to the moment you go to bed, you have a choice to make. Choose to add richness to your day and to your life. At the end of it all, at least you can say that you had some engaging experiences in your life that you truly enjoyed. As opposed to dwelling on the challenges you faced.
 Everyone will face challenges in their life. It is how you approach the challenge that matters. Understand that you are building resilience and this is something you have to face to get to the other side. You may not be able to control the situation, but you can control how you react to it.
   
 BEST MOMENTS 
 “I am the difficult monk”
 “By leaving, I control my uncertainty, they don’t.”
 “From great darkness comes great light.”
 “I said to myself, I am going to be open to this experience and I am going to embrace the opportunity, but what am I going to learn as a result of this?”
  
 ABOUT THE GUEST 
 Sam Thiara: Speaker, Educator, Coach, Writer and Community-Do-Gooder
 “I am an individual who is a speaker, storyteller, author, coach, mentor, entrepreneur, educator and dedicated to community development.There are five areas that I identify as my foundation: Servant Leadership; Story Sharing; Activator and Igniter; Champion and Enabler; and Community Do-Gooder. My passion is to help individuals, groups and organizations. This also extends to the community where I enjoy and participate in community development and engagement where I have mentored/coached , hundreds of individuals and worked with 45+ non-profits over the last 25 years.I have spent the last 17+ years at the Beedie School of Business as a lecturer, administrator and on the Alumni Association Board. For the last 20+ years, I have been involved with helping people build on their autobiographies. This has become the foundation for the building of GradusOne (which recently merged with League of Innovators), an organization to help high school/post secondary/recent graduates in their career journey.  Storytelling is a cornerstone of my background. Whether as an author or speaking at a conference, I have had a very rich reflective life and enjoy sharing my experiences. I am called upon by organizations and schools to do keynotes, workshops or panel facilitation. This exposure has enabled me to speak regionally, nationally and internationally. Specialties: Coaching, relationship building, community consultation, corporate communications, student development, educator, community involvement, public speaking and writing”

      <title>E207: I Am Loving My Life Right Now - Paul Keenan Interview</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/207-fitb</link>
      <description>Pete is joined by personal trainer, podcaster and owner of Volume Fitness Paul Keenan, join them today as they dive into all things mindset and gratitude. Together they discuss why looking at the self beyond the physical is something everybody needs, why you either get what you want in life or you learn a lesson and why everybody is capable of doing so much more in life.
  
 KEY TAKEAWAYS 
  Looking at the self beyond the physical is something that a lot of people need.There is a strong connection between the mind and the body. This has always been talked about but never really developed to any level en masse.
 You either get what you want or you get the lesson. Learning from your mistakes will take you a long time to get over and even though you will be through the worst of it, you will still carry the lesson with you.
 There can be two sides to gratitude journaling. One side is the ‘done it’ side by journaling your feelings at the end of the day which are not always ‘grateful’ feelings. The other side is journaling and showing gratitude for what you have experienced and what you have yet to experience. In life, there is as much below as there is above.
 You are capable of doing so much, maybe even a lot more than what you are doing right now. There is no rush to be successful. You have a lot of your life ahead of you and you should intend to be here for as long as possible.
   
 BEST MOMENTS 
 “ Looking at the self beyond the physical is something that a lot of people need.”
 “I want to try and cut my own cloth.”
 “I am loving life right now. There was a point not so long ago that that wasn't the case.”
 “I don’t want to step outside of my box and I will seek support where I can, from others.”

      <title>E206: Take Care Of Yourself First Before You Seek To Help Others - Eric Winters Interview</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/206-fitb</link>
      <description>Self-leadership coach, speaker and author Eric Winters joins the show all the way from Sydney, Australia today to deep dive into his passion for the human mind and self leadership. Together, they discuss why it is important to lead ourselves before we lead others, why not learning to manage your mind could see you being swept away in directions not of your choosing and why fire in the belly is what inspires and excites you. 
  
 KEY TAKEAWAYS 
  Before we go on to lead others and try to get the best out of them, we have first got to attend to ourselves. We need to manage our own mind so that we can meet challenges more effectively. 
 One way that we are able to manage our minds effectively is by cultivating a helpful relationship to the self. If we get caught up in the ‘I’ then our ability to choose what we are going to do is diminished. It is helpful to talk about ‘the self’ as something we can be in a relationship with as it gives us greater choice in life. 
 If we leave managing our mind to chance we will be swept away by both our biology and messaging within our cultures. These messages train us relentlessly to conform, buy and stay feeling good at all costs. By not learning to manage our minds we will be swept away in directions not of our choosing. 
 If we are going to author our own lives and take a path of our choosing, it is going to require courage and skills to manage our minds. We need to learn how to choose for ourselves and know what we want to do whether our broader culture likes it or not. 
 We have multiple experiences at the same time. It is possible to be excited about something, and worried. Our inner worlds are like orchestras, there are many instruments in an orchestra and some of them are very loud but if you listen closely, there are still some others playing lightly in the background. 
 Fire in the belly is what inspires you, excites you and what gets you up and going in the morning. 
   
 BEST MOMENTS 
 “ Take care of yourself first before you seek to influence others.”
 “How is it that some people can manage themselves so well under huge pressure and others can't?”
 “I am nourished by making discoveries.”
 “I am inspired to be the best version of a partner I possibly can be.”

 Eric Winters : 
 “I’m a self-leadership coach, speaker and author with deep knowledge in the science of building courageous and emotionally intelligent mindsets.”

      <title>E205: My Strength Is To Help, Lead And Uplift Others - John Knowles Interview.</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/205-fitb</link>
      <description>John Knowles joins The Mighty Pete all the way from Australia today to discuss his passion to help, lead and uplift others. Together, they discuss how to have fire in the belly means to never give up on your dreams, why a good leader always sets a standard and why you should always press through your challenges. 
  
 KEY TAKEAWAYS 
  Fire in the belly is about being relentless and never giving up on your dreams. Despite your circumstances, your upbringing and cultural background, never giving up hope is to have fire in your belly. Live your best life, for yourself and others around you.
 It is so easy to only live and think for ourselves. We soon come to realise the bigger picture and the importance of helping others. This does not only mean helping people financially but also includes sharing a smile, your time and performing kind gestures for people. It is incredibly rewarding to not only think about what you can get for yourself but also how to give to others.
 The best way to get good interaction out of life is to be happy and positive. Having good energy will attract good people. Automatically, people will want to get to know you as they can feel that you want to care. This is super important when wanting to connect with people in life.  
 Someone with any kind of disability should never be underestimated in any way. Do not underestimate what they can do, see, hear or what they are capable of achieving in their intellectual and physical ability.  
 A good leader sets the standard. They also recognise others and encourage others to do their best. Although they might point out ways for people to improve, they also point out people's strengths. 
 Press through your challenges, don’t stop. You should never settle for something less than what you want and don’t listen to what others think. The only thing that really matters is what you think. 
   
 BEST MOMENTS
 “Be an inspiration.”
 “There are multiple ways to help others, it is huge. It is so rewarding to be able to help.”
 “My strength is to help, lead and uplift others.”
 “I want to help them see the better side of life and to know that someone recognises and sees their efforts.”

      <title>E204: We Need To Make The Planet Better- Storm Cunningham Interview</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/204-fitb</link>
      <description>Master of restoration, author and U.S Army veteran, Storm Cunningham joins the show today to talk us through how he earned the name ‘guru of the trillion-dollar global renewal trend’ and what he is doing to help restore the planet. Together they discuss why we do not just have to conserve what we have left on the planet, but how we can restore the damage we have already done, the importance of staying focused on your life mission and why you should raise your standards in life.
  
 KEY TAKEAWAYS 
  The planet is in a poor condition currently, which begs the question, why would anybody want to sustain it as surely it is past repair? We do not just have to be satisfied with conserving what is left of nature, we can actually restore the damage that we have already done.
 Once you become attuned to the fact that restoration exists, you start to see it everywhere. You can see revitalisation, repurposing and restoration everywhere once you really begin to look for it, you have just never really noticed it before.
 A process is absolutely essential to reliably produce something. Those who run cities and regions do not seem to understand that.They promise revitalisation however they do not have a process for what they are producing or promising. They figure out that if they do some good things, revitalisation will magically appear.
 No matter how inspiring your mission may be, you are always going to have to deal with ‘ugly’ people and not very bright institutions. Focus on your mission and do not hassle yourself with negativity.
 If you choose your opportunities properly, they will allow you to get paid to do the things that you would usually pay to do. Raise your standards and find a job that can teach you a valuable skill which can open up new, fun and lucrative opportunities for you.
 So many people have very low standards when it comes to jobs, so long as they have a pay cheque they are content. That tends not to lead to living a joyous life.
   
 BEST MOMENTS
 “Look around at the planet, this place is a total mess right now. Who wants to sustain this? We need to make it better.”
 “Every genre has two great books, the first one that was written, and the best one.”
 “These are the people in charge of the future and they are putting their trust in magic and hope.”
  
 ABOUT THE GUEST 
 “Storm is often called the guru of the trillion-dollar global renewal trend. He started writing The Restoration Economy in 1996, when brownfields redevelopment, regenerative agriculture &amp; restoration ecology emerged.That 2002 book advanced today's regenerative trends: resilience, circular economy, carbon-negative, etc. Storm's new book (January 2020) RECONOMICS reveals a reliable path to inclusive, resilient regeneration.”

  Positivity is on a spectrum and there is an opportunity to offer positivity in certain situations. However, it is not blind or a misunderstanding of reality. You may not be able to change the entire world, but you can change the world for one. 
 When it comes to positivity and the positivity movement, it is just doing things well for good reasons. Have good intentions, you do not have to create the world biggest charitable organisation. It just means that you have done a small thing for someone one day and made a positive impact on their day. 
 To have a purpose is vitally important. If you do not have a direction or a purpose it is very hard to find fulfilment and hard to make a positive impact in your own life, your family's life and on the world. 
 One of the best exercises to do in the morning before you do anything else, is to count the blessings in your life and consider why you are doing what you are. If you do not know your ‘why’, you need to do some searching. 
 In history, the most successful people set goals, they had a purpose they were reaching for. Fast forwarding to the 21st century, goal setting has become a formalised process. There is nothing wrong with the tools to help you set goals, goal setting is a very personable process and there is no specific way to do it. 
 Everyone's way of goal setting is different. It is important to have a vision of where you want to go. Imagine being a boat without a direction, if you do not know where you are going it is not going to be a smooth sail. 
   
 BEST MOMENTS 
 “You may not be able to change the entire world, but you can change the world for one.”
 “I ask myself ‘why’ every morning”
 “The communication aspect is really what sets it apart.”

      <title>E202: I Have A Light And I Am Going To Let It Shine - Tamara Zoner</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/202-fitb</link>
      <description>The Happiness Coach with a passion for bringing joy, purpose, productivity and profit into your life, Tamara Zoner joins Pete today to discuss how she decided to go from working full time in senior care, to being a full time inspirational speaker. Together they discuss what it means to be an empath, how to create markers for your success and why you are a working process for the entirety of your life. 
  
 KEY TAKEAWAYS 
  When we practice empathy, we don’t want to get stuck in the hole ourselves with the person we are trying to help. With empathy you throw down the ladder so you can help the person get back up. Being an empath is being able to sense that someone is having an emotional experience, and not having it become your emotional experience. 
 We heal in layers. There is still healing to be done from all of your traumas. It is interesting to look back on past memories as your present self and see how far you have come. We heal for things when situations arise that remind us of past trauma. 
 When you are looking at other people, part of that is a mirage and you are seeing a version of yourself. Our ego does not want to accept that there are aspects about our own personality that we do not like. 
 Create markers for your success which will let you know when you are there, at your goal. Think in the perspective of an outside observer, how would they be able to tell you have reached that success marker? Keep revising those markers. 
 Even as big as our egos can get, they often encourage us to play small. Your low self-esteem or limitations may get in the way of your mindset. Change your mindset to match your markers with your intentions and ensure that you are not selling yourself short. 
 Your voids can be your values, and not necessarily be your voids anymore. You are a working progress, there are still places where you are not fully living those values. Your willingness to see them means that one day you will. 
   
 BEST MOMENTS 
 “I just know that I have been told enough now, that I have this light and I believe them, I am going to let it shine.”
 “I love who I am and I can share this gift with other people.”
 “They’re the reason that I kept my eye on this dream.”
 “It is what we truly believe, that is going to show up for us.”

      <title>E201: I Have A Purpose Now - Shannon Ferguson</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/201-fitb</link>
      <description>Shannon Ferguson joins the show today to talk through her inspirational story of how she turned her life around from addiction to having a burning passion to help others through her up and coming new business venture. Together Shannon and Pete discuss how having a passion and purpose in life gives you that fire in the belly, why it is healing to no longer care what others think about you and why being with nature is a great way to appreciate the world we live in.
  
 KEY TAKEAWAYS 
  Fire in the belly is living a life of passion and purpose. You may feel as though you have lived a life without a sense of direction or purpose, you need to learn how to tune into what you desire and what feels right for you. That will create a fire in the belly for you as well as giving you an excitement for life and what the future holds for you.
 Try not to please everyone. Everyone has different things that they want from you, with different expectations. Understand that you cannot please everyone and it is exhausting to even try, so why not live to please yourself? It will feel a lot better to make choices that are right for you. The people that are meant for your life, will love you for you and will be proud of you no matter what.
 It is healing to learn that it does not matter what other people think of you. It may hurt when people say hurtful things, but the fact that you love yourself, have good intentions and are a good person quickly outweighs that.
 With everything you do, be aware of how other people are feeling. Whilst it is good to be polite and mindful, when it starts to take over your life it is a recipe for unhappiness and being unfulfilled. It will not make you feel good to keep living that way.
 Everything happens for a reason. As long as you keep listening to your intuition, you will keep being guided down the right path. When you ignore it, that is when bad things begin to happen.
 Being with nature is a great way for us to appreciate the world which we so often miss because we are so absorbed with technology. We are constantly distracted with the hustle and bustle of life that it is grounding to be surrounded by nature.
   
 BEST MOMENTS 
 “I have a purpose now.”
 “I am constantly doing my best to notice the types of thoughts I am having and whether they are positive or negative.”
 “It has been healing to learn that it truly doesn't matter what other people think.”
 “It was a way of escaping what I knew to be true.”
  
 ABOUT THE GUEST

      <itunes:summary>Shannon Ferguson joins the show today to talk through her inspirational story of how she turned her life around from addiction to having a burning passion to help others through her up and coming new business venture. Together Shannon and Pete discuss how having a passion and purpose in life gives you that fire in the belly, why it is healing to no longer care what others think about you and why being with nature is a great way to appreciate the world we live in.
  
 KEY TAKEAWAYS 
  Fire in the belly is living a life of passion and purpose. You may feel as though you have lived a life without a sense of direction or purpose, you need to learn how to tune into what you desire and what feels right for you. That will create a fire in the belly for you as well as giving you an excitement for life and what the future holds for you.
 Try not to please everyone. Everyone has different things that they want from you, with different expectations. Understand that you cannot please everyone and it is exhausting to even try, so why not live to please yourself? It will feel a lot better to make choices that are right for you. The people that are meant for your life, will love you for you and will be proud of you no matter what.
 It is healing to learn that it does not matter what other people think of you. It may hurt when people say hurtful things, but the fact that you love yourself, have good intentions and are a good person quickly outweighs that.
 With everything you do, be aware of how other people are feeling. Whilst it is good to be polite and mindful, when it starts to take over your life it is a recipe for unhappiness and being unfulfilled. It will not make you feel good to keep living that way.
 Everything happens for a reason. As long as you keep listening to your intuition, you will keep being guided down the right path. When you ignore it, that is when bad things begin to happen.
 Being with nature is a great way for us to appreciate the world which we so often miss because we are so absorbed with technology. We are constantly distracted with the hustle and bustle of life that it is grounding to be surrounded by nature.
   
 BEST MOMENTS 
 “I have a purpose now.”
 “I am constantly doing my best to notice the types of thoughts I am having and whether they are positive or negative.”
 “It has been healing to learn that it truly doesn't matter what other people think.”
 “It was a way of escaping what I knew to be true.”

      <title>E200: 200th Episode Special - This Was My Life Saviour : The Mighty Pete Interview</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/200-fitb</link>
      <description>In this one off special for the 200th episode, the tables turn as The Mighty Pete takes to the interviewee chair as guest host Liam O’Neil aka The Prove It Guy quizzes him on all things Fire In The Belly and his new book. Together, they discuss the evolution of the podcast, interviewer tips and tricks and how the podcast has helped Pete find his purpose.
  
 KEY TAKEAWAYS 
  There is something about putting a microphone in front of people that stops people from slipping into a pity party and keeps people focused so they are not drifting off into a different conversation. When interviewing, you are able to dig deep into the lives of others, however you must have the ability to know when it is appropriate to stop digging.
 One deep question that is always asked on the podcast is ‘do you like or love yourself?’ It often sends people off in either direction of answering yes, or no which can set the tone for the rest of the podcast.
 People are usually stagnated at the beginning of an interview because they are on guard as to what is coming. You can often point out the time in an interview where people start to relax and begin enjoying the conversation, which results in open and honest chats. This sees them going into a flow state and has them talking more openly and honestly.
 Be heard and be rich in all the areas of your life. Be rich in your financial, physical, spiritual and mental areas. Hear your own voice, your own ideas and your own passions. Live the most abundant life that you possibly can.
 If someone chooses to live their life in a certain way, try not to judge it. The Fire In The Belly podcast is nondenominational, non political and non judgemental.
   
 BEST MOMENTS 
 “You have to be the person that stood up and took action, to go and find the people that also stood up and took action.”
 “When someone has a fresh idea, it is a very vulnerable time for them.”
 “This was my life saviour. This was my reason.”
  
 ABOUT THE GUEST HOST 
  Liam O’Neil https://www.limitationisamirage.com
 “I have been studying Martial arts since I was 16. At the age of 21, I started learning about hypnosis, psychology and magic of the mind as a way to develop my training. Together with my extensive knowledge of body mechanics, I am able to perform astounding feats of strength and control, using my mind, my body or both. When I’m not developing my own abilities, I spend my time helping individuals and companies to realise their full potential. These days, my principal focus is teaching, speaking and training. However, people learn best when they are entertained, not bored. I spent many years entertaining audiences both large and small at corporate events, night clubs, comedy clubs, weddings and parties — even out on the street! I believe my extensive experience as an entertainer is of immense benefit in my current work. Nobody learns anything when they’re bored! My main theme is, ‘Limitation Is A Mirage’. I show individuals and companies how to get past self-limiting beliefs and practices, and start the real process of turning dreams, goals, ambitions and targets into reality. I’m also known as ‘The Prove-It Guy’. I think audiences, especially in the corporate sphere, have had enough of words that sound good but don’t connect with the practical concerns of running a successful business. Every principle I teach, I can demonstrate. Everything I demonstrate, I can teach.”

      <title>E199: Life is a journey, do not take it too seriously - Joannie O’Hanlon Interview</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/199-fitb</link>
      <description>Pete is joined by Joannie O’Hanlon today, an incredible and inspirational woman who dedicates her life to helping other women change their thinking to dramatically improve their lives. Together, they discuss how vital it is to always look on the positive side of life, how to stop toxic thoughts interfering with your dreams and how to crash through the barrier of fear.
  
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  Many people do not understand personal mentoring. We have to be realistic and acknowledge that life can be a bumpy trail. You can choose to live a life where you are more lentiant to the positive side and understand that things happen for a reason and how to count your blessings. It is great to be able to reflect on how far you have come.
 Fire in the belly is a heated desire that is so strong that it pulls you out of bed in the morning. You are no longer pushing through life anymore, something greater is pushing you out there, towards your greatness.
 When you are feeling out of alignment, start to question what is happening to jeopardize feeling happy and with a clear mind. Oftentimes you will find that it will be toxic thoughts such as self-doubt. These thoughts are not good and are stopping you from being focused on what is good. If something is seeping in that is not making you feel good, choose to reject it and carry on with what you know is going to serve you best.
 You are capable of achieving anything that you put your mind to. It is so important that everybody knows that. Shrink your dreams down, to small attainable goals rather than massive, scary goals.
 When we harbour faith over fear, we can crash through every scary decision and we can do it in style. To crash through the barrier of fear and into freedom, is the most liberating thing that you can possibly do. So many people crash and burn into the fear barrier and become subservient to mediocracy which they have been tolerating for so long, letting it dictate their life.
 Crashing through all limiting beliefs and situations, and facing fear and taking risks is the key to getting to your goal.
   
 BEST MOMENTS 
 “I just love to stop and take it all in.”
 “ Life is a journey, do not take it too seriously. Honor the times that are good and the things that are bad. Focus on the good things in life.”
 “We are and I am capable of doing anything that I put my mind to.”
 “I’ve got some big dreams.”
 “I have always been a risk taker.”
 ABOUT THE GUEST 
 I teach women how to change their thinking for dramatically improved results, using the incredible &amp; life transformative programmes by the Proctor Gallagher Institute.

Pete openly talks about losing both of his parents, suffering periods of depression, business downturn and burn-out, and ultimately his years spent not stoking ‘Fire In the Belly’. In 2017, at 37 years of age that changed, and he is now on a journey of learning, growing, accepting, and inspiring others.
 Pete can connect with people and intuitively asks questions to reveal a person’s passion and discover how to live their mightiest life. The true power of ‘Fire In The Belly’ is the Q&amp;A’s - Questions and Actions!
 The ‘Fire In The Belly’ brand and the programme is rapidly expanding into podcasts, seminars, talks, business workshops, development courses, and rapid results mentoring.

      <itunes:summary>Pete is joined by Joannie O’Hanlon today, an incredible and inspirational woman who dedicates her life to helping other women change their thinking to dramatically improve their lives. Together, they discuss how vital it is to always look on the positive side of life, how to stop toxic thoughts interfering with your dreams and how to crash through the barrier of fear.
  
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  Many people do not understand personal mentoring. We have to be realistic and acknowledge that life can be a bumpy trail. You can choose to live a life where you are more lentiant to the positive side and understand that things happen for a reason and how to count your blessings. It is great to be able to reflect on how far you have come.
 Fire in the belly is a heated desire that is so strong that it pulls you out of bed in the morning. You are no longer pushing through life anymore, something greater is pushing you out there, towards your greatness.
 When you are feeling out of alignment, start to question what is happening to jeopardize feeling happy and with a clear mind. Oftentimes you will find that it will be toxic thoughts such as self-doubt. These thoughts are not good and are stopping you from being focused on what is good. If something is seeping in that is not making you feel good, choose to reject it and carry on with what you know is going to serve you best.
 You are capable of achieving anything that you put your mind to. It is so important that everybody knows that. Shrink your dreams down, to small attainable goals rather than massive, scary goals.
 When we harbour faith over fear, we can crash through every scary decision and we can do it in style. To crash through the barrier of fear and into freedom, is the most liberating thing that you can possibly do. So many people crash and burn into the fear barrier and become subservient to mediocracy which they have been tolerating for so long, letting it dictate their life.
 Crashing through all limiting beliefs and situations, and facing fear and taking risks is the key to getting to your goal.
   
 BEST MOMENTS 
 “I just love to stop and take it all in.”
 “ Life is a journey, do not take it too seriously. Honor the times that are good and the things that are bad. Focus on the good things in life.”
 “We are and I am capable of doing anything that I put my mind to.”
 “I’ve got some big dreams.”
 “I have always been a risk taker.”
 ABOUT THE GUEST 
 I teach women how to change their thinking for dramatically improved results, using the incredible &amp; life transformative programmes by the Proctor Gallagher Institute.

      <title>E198: Everyone Deserves To Live A Life That Puts The Fire In Their Belly - Amanda Rafferty Interview</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/198-fitb</link>
      <description>Podcaster, Blogger and Mentor Amanda Rafferty joins Pete today to share her story and tell of how one event turned her whole life upside down and changed her mindset forever. Together, they discuss how with the right people around you, you can turn your life around for the better, why you should live your life on your own terms and the importance of being respectful to others.
  
 KEY TAKEAWAYS 
  There are very few people who get through life without any challenge, obstacle or struggle. With these, you are able to turn your life around in a positive way which can give others a sense of hope that they can do the same.
 It is a daunting place to be when you are starting again, but it can be done. With the right people around you and the right mindset to help you believe that you can start again. Whilst it is not easy, and each day may bring their own challenges, keep putting one foot in front of the other and move forward on your journey.
   Everybody deserves to live the life they want rather than just trudging through life. So many people hold back in life because of somebody else's perception and the fears that they have. This is your life, you have to live your life on your terms, not on somebody else's terms.
 You really have no idea what life is going to throw at you next. You can plan ahead as much as you like, but your life can turn upside down with no warning. Live in the here and now, nobody knows what is going to happen in the future.
   It shouldn't matter if somebody has £5 or £5,000,000 in the bank, you should always show respect to others. We are all cut from the same cloth and we are all the same. Respect people, be kind to people and always remain humble.
   
 BEST MOMENTS 
 “I always look for the positive in what is happening.”
 “Everyone deserves to live a life that puts the fire in their belly.”
 “At that moment, I had no control over anything.”

      <title>E197: She Is A Given - Interview with Emilie Given</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/197-fitb</link>
      <description>Successful entrepreneur and virtual assistant agency owner, featured in The New York Post, Emilie Given joins Pete today to share her story on why she decided to leave her 9-5 job at Amazon, and start up her own business, which now has a six-figure value. Together, they discuss how talking about wanting money is not a bad thing, how to create a continuous flow of money and how being a good person will attract good people to you.
  
 KEY TAKEAWAYS 
  Money is energy. Money is a currency which you give away and have it flow back to you. Money is not bad, and it is not bad to talk about it. There is not a limited amount of money, it is constant and you can attract it by what you are doing. We do not need to limit our mindset and believe that we can only ever have so much money.
 When starting out in business there will be hard work involved because you are creating a new programme. However, if you do it in a way that you are setting up systems and processes, you can have that money come flowing to you for years and years.
 If you are a good person and you have high energy, you are going to attract good people with high energy.
 You should not continue to pursue relationships that you feel obligated to have. Think about if those relationships do you any good. Do they make you feel good when you talk to them? Or do you dread talking to them? If you dread talking to them, they no longer need to be in your life.
   
 BEST MOMENTS 
 “My life goal is to help other people find stability, balance and figure out a career that really works for them.”
 “I believe in Karma.”
 “I like to be around people, even if we are not talking.”
 “I love people, I just love being around people.”
  
 ABOUT THE GUEST 
 “Emilie Given is a successful online entrepreneur and virtual assistant agency owner who has been featured in Business Insider, Scary Mommy, and The New York Post. She founded She’s A Given, a Seattle-based virtual assistant company in 2018 to be able to spend more time with her family after a near-death experience. 9 months after leaving her 9-5 at Amazon Corporate HQ, she built a thriving six-figure business. Emilie is passionate about matching high-level executive assistants with business leaders and their teams. Through coaching and course creation, Emilie’s also hopes to inspire other corporate women to create a career that allows them to focus on passion over paperwork and family over familiarity.”

  Money is energy. Money is a currency which you give away and have it flow back to you. Money is not bad, and it is not bad to talk about it. There is not a limited amount of money, it is constant and you can attract it by what you are doing. We do not need to limit our mindset and believe that we can only ever have so much money.
 When starting out in business there will be hard work involved because you are creating a new programme. However, if you do it in a way that you are setting up systems and processes, you can have that money come flowing to you for years and years.
 If you are a good person and you have high energy, you are going to attract good people with high energy.
 You should not continue to pursue relationships that you feel obligated to have. Think about if those relationships do you any good. Do they make you feel good when you talk to them? Or do you dread talking to them? If you dread talking to them, they no longer need to be in your life.
   
 BEST MOMENTS 
 “My life goal is to help other people find stability, balance and figure out a career that really works for them.”
 “I believe in Karma.”
 “I like to be around people, even if we are not talking.”
 “I love people, I just love being around people.”

      <title>E196: My Happy Mind -  Lisa Stevenson Interview</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/196-fitb</link>
      <description>Author Lisa Stevenson joins Pete in today's episode of Fire In The Belly to discuss why she left her job as a nurse to pursue a new career in writing and tells of how she created the health and wellness journal for children called ‘My Happy Mind Journal’  to help them with gratitude, positivity and mindfulness. Together they cover everything from the importance of asking for help, the benefits of the Happy Mind Activity Journal and why sending love to people will always make you feel better.
  
 KEY TAKEAWAYS 
  Ask for help if you think you need it, even if you might feel you are being silly. Ask the people around you for their advice and get them to help you through your struggles. There are so many ways to teach yourself things these days that make your life easier.
 Showing gratitude is not about only appreciating the big things in your life. It is also about showing gratitude for the pillow that you’re sleeping on, having warm water to wash your face with, your shampoo to wash your hair etc. Show gratitude for absolutely everything that you have, even the minor things because unfortunately, not everybody has these. You have to be grateful for the small things and then you can be even more grateful for the big things that happen in life.
 So much of a childs entertainment these days comes from a mobile phone. The fact that My Happy Mind Activity Journal allows children to pick up a pencil and color improves behaviour and is something new and exciting for them.
 Everyone is a working progress no matter how old you are. Whether you’re ten or one hundred and ten, you always find out something new about yourself such as new interests or new skills that you didn’t realise you had or were good at. Everyday is a learning day.
 Love and happiness are two of the things people forget that they have. People need to remember to give love more often, even to people that you may not think deserve it. Send them love and it makes you feel a lot better.
   
 BEST MOMENTS 
 “Kids now, from the age of one or two can use a phone better than I can!”
 “I made the decision that I have had enough.”
 “I have not regretted one iota of it.”
 ABOUT THE GUEST 
 “I am an author of My Happy Mind Activity Journal for children aged 7-12 to help them with gratitude, positivity, mindfulness, meditation all in a fun way over 60 days. My passion is helping people to feel good about themselves and help them heal themselves through my holistic therapy business.”

      <title>E195: When Passion And Purpose Marry Together, Fire In The Belly Is Made - Chris Collier Interview</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/195-fitb</link>
      <description>Chris The Conqueror joins The Mighty Pete in today's episode to discuss what Fire In The Belly means to him and his pathway to success. In yet another inspirational episode, they cover topics from success and how it varies from person to person, the meaning of faith and why failure is a wonderful thing.
  
 KEY TAKEAWAYS 
  We are programmed to believe that losing is okay and that we cannot always win. Whilst there is some truth in that, you always have to strive for the best. Failure is a wonderful thing, it is a teacher more so than a bad thing. Learn and embrace failure and get better from it.
 There are two things that every person needs to find and work with to have that fire in the belly. Fire in the belly is to have passion and purpose. When you get passion and purpose married together, you have power that creates a whole new force in the world.
 Faith is nothing more than looking to the future and knowing the end goal and bringing it to the present as best you can. It may not happen today or tomorrow but each day, you are bringing your dreams closer to you. When you look into the future you have got to look with the perception of purpose, your passion and your power. Use this as your motivator.
 Success varies for every person. The process to success is never easy, if your dream is big enough the facts simply do not matter. You have to believe you can do it, so you are able to get through the first, second and third hurdles.
 You should never be jealous of those who have different dreams and beliefs than you. Everyone has their own pathway. There is only one path in but once you are in there are many paths to go down.
   
 BEST MOMENTS
 “Faith is nothing more than looking to the future.”
 “Tomorrow is a creature that you can never catch.”
 “You have to be willing to always be changing.”

In yet another inspirational episode, they cover topics from success and how it varies from person to person, the meaning of faith and why failure is a wonderful thing.</p> <p> </p> <p><strong>KEY TAKEAWAYS </strong></p> <ul> <li>We are programmed to believe that losing is okay and that we cannot always win. Whilst there is some truth in that, you always have to strive for the best. Failure is a wonderful thing, it is a teacher more so than a bad thing. Learn and embrace failure and get better from it.</li> <li>There are two things that every person needs to find and work with to have that fire in the belly. Fire in the belly is to have passion and purpose. When you get passion and purpose married together, you have power that creates a whole new force in the world.</li> <li>Faith is nothing more than looking to the future and knowing the end goal and bringing it to the present as best you can. It may not happen today or tomorrow but each day, you are bringing your dreams closer to you. When you look into the future you have got to look with the perception of purpose, your passion and your power. Use this as your motivator.</li> <li>Success varies for every person. The process to success is never easy, if your dream is big enough the facts simply do not matter. You have to believe you can do it, so you are able to get through the first, second and third hurdles.</li> <li>You should never be jealous of those who have different dreams and beliefs than you. Everyone has their own pathway. There is only one path in but once you are in there are many paths to go down.</li> </ul> <p> </p> <p><strong>BEST MOMENTS</strong></p> <p>“Faith is nothing more than looking to the future.”</p> <p>“Tomorrow is a creature that you can never catch.”</p> <p>“You have to be willing to always be changing.”</p> <p><strong>ABOUT THE GUEST </strong></p> <p>Chris Collier - Executive Producer and Manager at Conquer With Chris Podcast</p> <p><strong>Website : </strong><a href="https://conquerwithchris.com/about-us/">https://conquerwithchris.com/about-us/</a></p> <p>LinkedIn: <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/conquerwithchris">https://www.linkedin.com/in/conquerwithchris</a></p> <p><strong>ABOUT THE HOST</strong></p> <p><strong>The ‘Mighty Pete Lonton’ from the ‘Mighty 247’ company is your main host of ‘Fire In The Belly’. </strong></p> <p>Pete is an Entrepreneur, Mentor, Coach, Property Investor, and father of 3 beautiful girls.

      <title>E194: Living My ‘I Am’ Moment - Interview with John Davis</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/194-fitb</link>
      <description>Motivational speaker John Davis joins Pete today to talk about his journey to success and how went from stuntman to comedian to life coach. John talks about his belief in living his ‘I am’ moment, how the only person that will get in the way of you and your goals, is you and how when he stopped limiting himself, amazing things happened.
  
 KEY TAKEAWAYS 
  John believes that you are only living in one, conscious moment, which is the present. Your past is just a stack of present moment memories, moments that you have lived that are now in your memory storebank. Your future is just a place where you set goals for future, present moments. You have to stay very firmly present in the ‘I Am’ moment. You have to make these small moments successful.
 Something is always going to come up that is going to seem like it is going to stop you from achieving your goals. It is your job to keep your eye on your target and your goal and realise that your subconscious mind is showing you this thing, so that you can address it. They can only stop you if you choose to let it stop you.
 John uses the example of if somebody was 100lb overweight and decided they wanted to lose that weight an affirmation saying ‘I am thin’ is not going to change the fact that they are overweight. Declarations such as ‘I am eating well’ or ‘I am creating a healthy body.” are things that can be true. Saying things that are not reality are not believable and will not magically happen for you.
 You can never consciously be in alignment unless you are willing to set down your past and your past traumas. Although he did not expect it, John had a very emotional response to his fathers passing because they were no longer talking when he passed. When he passed away John was emotional because he was relieved.
 When he stopped needing to struggle, everything became easier for John. When he stopped holding himself back, he stopped limiting himself from those He began to live the ‘i am’ moment and by doing this, he started to experience amazing things.
   
 BEST MOMENTS 
 “You have got to do things in alignment in this space to bring that experience.”
 “When you finally experience the big outcome that you are looking for, it is going to be in your present moment.”
 “Life is about motion.”
 “You can put faith in fear. You can put faith in love.”
 ABOUT THE GUEST 
 John David : “What I can do for you:
 Using bullwhips, nunchucks, and world-class comedy, I will deliver a program that delivers the five key steps I used to get out of bed after my spine separated leaving me unable to walk. I went on to become a Stuntman, Fight Director,and comedian who performed over 4000 live comedy sword-fighting shows (including more than 100 on the front lines of Iraq and Afghanistan six USO tours.) I will tailor my proven material to meet the goals you have set for your event. All of my programs are interactive and will culminate with one of your audience members, in under five minutes, learning to crack the bullwhip and hitting targets I will hold in my hand!!”

      <title>E193: Choose Happy - Sarah Gregg Interview</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/193-fitb</link>
      <description>Fellow Northern Irish local, author, psychologist and life coach with a huge amount of passion and intellect, Sarah Gregg joins Pete in today's inspiring episode. Leaving her job in 2016 Sarah decided to reinvent her life and chase her dreams to become a successful author. Sarah discusses how her journey led her to have deeper trust within herself, why she believes people should be more open with their feelings and why it is her aim to encourage people to live the life they want.
  
 KEY TAKEAWAYS 
  Sarah believes that life can look good on paper and people can do everything that was expected of them yet still feel discontent. Many people are suffering with these emotions and Sarah endeavours to encourage people to reinvent the rules of happiness and success. She believes that everyone is whole and worthy and we need to live the life that we want.
 Whilst in Portugal, Sarah was working hard to write and continue to put stuff out there as it was something she loved but it was not working. Whilst part of her contemplated going back to the 9-5 office world, another part told her to keep going and believe in herself. The journey taught Sarah to have a deeper level of trust within herself, when you have that magical things can happen.
 It is important for Sarah to feel as though she does not need change herself but feel as though she can accept herself. Part of Sarah's work is helping people to move themself into alignment so that they can become ‘in-flow’ and figure out how all the parts of themselves work together so that they can flow towards what matters most. As opposed to ‘how do I change myself’ to get what I want.
 In the world of psychology there is an expectation that you should be a perfectly formed human being and not have bad feelings or flaws. What Sarah has realised is, having those flaws, experiences and feelings is what makes her really good at her job. The two aren’t separate, the two are part. There should be more times and places where we are vulnerable enough to say ‘I am not having a good day today’.
 Sarah's book ‘Choose Happy’ is about how small changes can create happier results. It takes common roadblocks to happiness such as comparison and gives anecdotes and psychology based strategies to help you navigate your way around that. ‘Choose Happy’ helps navigate when your messy, complex lives inevitably bring up new emotions that are harder to handle.
   
 BEST MOMENTS
 “We are not broken in any way, sometimes the pieces of the jigsaw puzzle are a little bit rearranged.”
 “So much of my journey has been events that cannot be explained.”
 “When you are in alignment, that is the optimum stage of consciousness.”
 ABOUT THE GUEST 
 Sarah is a Northern Irish girl with a huge passion for unlocking human potential (you could call it a bit of an obsession). Sarah is a member of the British Psychological Society, a certified life coach, business coach, and a certified Neuro-Linguistic Programming Practitioner. She's helped hundreds of ambitious individuals and businesses to dream big and take consistent action to get the results, with ease. In 2016 Sarah left her job and went in pursuit of her dream to work and travel full time. She now runs The Power to Reinvent and helps people across the world fulfill their potential and feel happier.

Whilst part of her contemplated going back to the 9-5 office world, another part told her to keep going and believe in herself. The journey taught Sarah to have a deeper level of trust within herself, when you have that magical things can happen.</li> <li>It is important for Sarah to feel as though she does not need change herself but feel as though she can accept herself. Part of Sarah's work is helping people to move themself into alignment so that they can become ‘in-flow’ and figure out how all the parts of themselves work together so that they can flow towards what matters most. As opposed to ‘how do I change myself’ to get what I want.</li> <li>In the world of psychology there is an expectation that you should be a perfectly formed human being and not have bad feelings or flaws. What Sarah has realised is, having those flaws, experiences and feelings is what makes her really good at her job. The two aren’t separate, the two are part. There should be more times and places where we are vulnerable enough to say ‘I am not having a good day today’.</li> <li>Sarah's book ‘Choose Happy’ is about how small changes can create happier results. It takes common roadblocks to happiness such as comparison and gives anecdotes and psychology based strategies to help you navigate your way around that. ‘Choose Happy’ helps navigate when your messy, complex lives inevitably bring up new emotions that are harder to handle.</li> </ul> <p> </p> <p><strong>BEST MOMENTS</strong></p> <p>“We are not broken in any way, sometimes the pieces of the jigsaw puzzle are a little bit rearranged.”</p> <p>“So much of my journey has been events that cannot be explained.”</p> <p>“When you are in alignment, that is the optimum stage of consciousness.”</p> <p><strong>ABOUT THE GUEST </strong></p> <p>Sarah is a Northern Irish girl with a huge passion for unlocking human potential (you could call it a bit of an obsession). Sarah is a member of the British Psychological Society, a certified life coach, business coach, and a certified Neuro-Linguistic Programming Practitioner. She's helped hundreds of ambitious individuals and businesses to dream big and take consistent action to get the results, with ease. In 2016 Sarah left her job and went in pursuit of her dream to work and travel full time. She now runs The Power to Reinvent and helps people across the world fulfill their potential and feel happier.</p> <p><strong>ABOUT THE HOST</strong></p> <p><strong>The ‘Mighty Pete Lonton’ from the ‘Mighty 247’ company is your main host of ‘Fire In The Belly’. </strong></p> <p>Pete is an Entrepreneur, Mentor, Coach, Property Investor, and father of 3 beautiful girls.

      <title>E192: We All Need Somebody - Tony Martignetti</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/192-fitb</link>
      <description>Leadership coach, entrepreneur and curious adventurer Tony Martignetti joins the show today to discuss how he allows people to unlock their potential and helps them to climb their personal  mountains. Together they discuss how overcompensating can lead to burnout, why you have to be open to being wrong and how fire in the belly is what drives you to push yourself to make your dreams come true.
  
 KEY TAKEAWAYS 
  Fire in the belly is something that drives you. Your fire is something that keeps you moving and in action. The inside fire is something that keeps you alive and helps you strive forward. There is something alive in you that is dying to come out and help you move forward to the next step of your life.
 The path to burnout is when you try to overcompensate and live your life to reach the top of a mountain and then realising you do not like what you have become. That is because you have continued to struggle to get there and realised that you have done everything to force yourself to get there, and you are unhappy with the results.
 You have to be open to being wrong and be open to rethinking situations. If you hold your beliefs so strongly that you are not open to being wrong then there is no way to expand and there is no way to innovate in a way that will make an impact.
 There are so many people that die with a song in their heart that has never been sung. We need to ensure that each person gets that out of them, even if they’re scared. Do not be afraid.
   
 BEST MOMENTS 
 “I didn’t know that I was on a path that was not mine.”
 “You have to be open to being wrong.”
 “We win together by opening up and sharing.”
 “What kind of coach would I be if I didn’t have a coach?”
 “We all need somebody.”
 ABOUT THE GUEST 
 “I am Tony Martignetti, a leadership coach, entrepreneur, idea generator, people connector, and a curious adventurer. I bring together practical experience, formal training, and extreme curiosity, to elevate leaders and equip them with the tools to navigate through change. I love helping people find clarity in their lives, so they are energized, fully present, and unstoppable. When leaders unlock their potential and lead from a place of inspired purpose, they impact and inspire everyone around them. I have dedicated myself to helping people live a life of inspired purpose. Before I became a coach, I was a finance and strategy professional with experience working with some of the world’s leading life sciences companies. Along my journey, I also managed small businesses and ran a financial consulting company. As I share my story, I want to leave you with three key lessons I learned along the way to help you on your journey from where you are now to where you would like to be.”

      <title>E191: Trusting Your Intuition - Sunil Godse Interview</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/interviewing-sunil-godse</link>
      <description>The mighty Pete is joined by Entrepreneur, Author and Intuition expert, Sunil Godse to talk through his journey of putting his trust into intuition and how his teachings have helped many people succeed along the way. In this motivational episode, Pete and Sunil discuss the importance of aligning with your values, why you should never spend your life trying to make other people proud and how your intuition will always send you signals to make sure you keep going in the right direction. 
  
 KEY TAKEAWAYS 
  If you make a routine decision such as what you are going to eat, your creative intuition is quite low. However, if you are going to make a crazy decision, your creative intuition is high. Positive intuition is when something crazy just feels so right to you.
   
  Many people go against their intuition as they usually do not trust themselves. So many people are going round in life carrying some kind of trauma or are trying to be someone that they think they need to be. When you are not in alignment with what you really want, in terms of your values, then you start to succumb to societal norms and values of others meaning you will fall into things that are not right for you.
   
  When you live your life trusting your intuitive signals and taking steps one by one you are of course going to reach your big goals. However, do not focus on materialistic goals such as money and property, look at your intrinsic motivation. You need to trust those signals, even when you are down and out and you do not think things are possible, those signals are always shining. All you have to do is take those signals,and trust them.
   
  Do not spend your entire life trying to make people proud of you. Work on satisfying your fire in the belly and focusing on what you are really excited about and then people will be proud of you, that is the lens you should look towards rather than doing something purely to try and please others.
   
  Your intuition will allow you to look at the intentions of others, why they want to be your friend and whether their values match up with yours. All these things are what your intuition is calculating in a split second which will allow you to read people. It takes only 14 seconds to trust someone and your intuition will allow you to figure that out.
   
 BEST MOMENTS 
 “All because it felt right.”
 “This is your intuition, these are your signals.”
 “Don’t look at somebody being proud of you as the driver.”
 “Intuition is always right and we just need to spend the time to figure out what those signals are.”
  
  
 ABOUT THE GUEST 
 “Sunil Godse’s success is entirely built upon the foundation of intuition. Intuition helped him grow 6 ventures in his earlier entrepreneurial career to close to $20 million.Intuitive branding and business savvy had him completely transform a number of smaller ventures, taking them from 6 to 7 figures within a short period of time. An intuitively guided action had him being awarded a number of management consultant contracts for a few Fortune 500 companies to ramp up their profitability and brand loyalty. If you are looking to make sure that you are the brand of choice to those who matter by implementing intuitive branding that has you crushing your competition, who would you trust?”

      <title>E190: Nobody Should Be On This Planet Just To Exist - Brenda Neckvatal Interview</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/190-fitb</link>
      <description>In today's episode Pete is joined by award-winning HR professional commonly known as the “HR Force of Nature”, Brenda Neckvatal to discuss her story and how she got to where she is today. Together they talk through deciding when to change your own narrative, how to have fire in the belly is to have gumption and desire and the importance of being open to anything and everything.
  
 KEY TAKEAWAYS 
  Fire in the belly is your gumption. It is your desire for life and the big furnace inside you that keeps you going. If you do not have fire in the belly then you are not living, you're just existing. Nobody should be on this planet to just exist, everyone should be out there trying to live.
   
  We all have a narrative of how we see our life and where we see it going. What we don’t realise is that we are the author of that narrative and we can change it anytime we want to. There is nothing easy about doing it but you can change it anytime you want. It is all dependent on whether you want to put the time in to change it.
   
  Finding the right people in life and attaching your loyalties appropriately is a great way to further yourself. Let go of the people in your life that are not on the same page as you. As you grow older you will become a better judge of character.
   
  When you drop what you think you know and you are open to anything and everything, your eyes are widened. Your aperture opens up, you may not always like it and may not like what you find in the process or what you see in the mirror but it is much better to be open than closed.
   
  
 BEST MOMENTS 
 “Nobody trusts anything but yet everyone is willing to listen to it.”
 “Nobody should be on this planet to just exist.”
 “We all have a narrative.”
 “I am a very loyal person.”

      <title>E189: I Have Finally Found My Purpose- Simon Haigh Interview</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/189-fitb</link>
      <description>Leadership, brand and mindset growth strategist, Simon Haigh joins the mighty Pete today to discuss his journey through life and how over the past year, he has finally found his purpose in life which is to help and inspire people. Together they discuss the importance of matching your confidence with your capability,  why there is no better version of you than you and why you should never compare yourself to others.
  
 KEY TAKEAWAYS 
  Fire in the belly is about matching your confidence with your capability levels. Do what you love doing and make sure that it feels normal to you. Your calling should never feel like work to you, when this happens other people will feel the natural enthusiasm you have for it. Your fire in your belly is your purpose in life. 
   
  Just accept who you are, there is no better version of you than you. There may be somebody who is smarter, better looking or faster at running than you, but they are just attributes and that is separate to you as a human. Stop striving to be better as a human, you are perfect just the way you are.
   
  As long as you are comfortable with where you are right now then there is no need to compare yourself to other people and their successes, that is just self-torture. As humans, our main purpose is to be there for each other and to enjoy every single moment in life. We are here to enjoy everything life has to offer and not just here to work. You need to work, you need to rest and you need to play.
   
  The dark side and the light side exist in all of us. There are negative forces out there that feed off certain people when they are vulnerable. You have to be careful about the darkside. Every human has the capacity to hate or to love. If you ignore the dark part of you and do not deal with your triggers or fears, they will eventually come back.
   
 BEST MOMENTS 
 “I have finally found my purpose.”
 “There are seven and a half billion people in the world and there is no better version of you than you.”
 “My purpose is getting complicated things, simplifying them and then inspiring others.”
  
 ABOUT THE GUEST 
 “ I am an in-demand business, leadership, brand &amp; mindset growth strategist as a certified leadership coach, consultant, trainer, lecturer (negotiation and deal-making), mentor, author, speaker and media host. I am a tri-qualified (England &amp; Wales, Australia and Ireland) commercial lawyer who, as an entrepreneur, has built and sold out of a number of technology, luxury items and travel companies. I have been a C-suite (NANA, Dell, BHP, Xilinx, Eneabba Gas) executive and sat on boards (business and homeless, education and media not-for-profits) across different industries, four continents over 28 years ”i

You need to work, you need to rest and you need to play.</li> </ul> <p> </p> <ul> <li>The dark side and the light side exist in all of us.

      <title>E188: I Was Given A Second Chance - Vera Lee Curnow Interview</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/188-fitb</link>
      <description> Inspirational Speaker, Artist, Author and Coach, Vera Lee joins Pete today to discuss how she has taken her own trauma, education and life experiences to help people see a different perspective of life and unleash their full potential. Together they discuss the importance of understanding that your identity is not wrapped up in your trauma, why you can feel broken, but understand that you are not actually broken and why you should forgive but not forget.
  
 KEY TAKEAWAYS 
  
  Understand where your identity is and that it is not wrapped up in events that have happened to you or the people around you and who you want to be. Then, your fire in the belly will become your passion. Your fire in the belly will come when you realise that you have not been living your purpose and you have not been living with passion.
   
  You should never view yourself as broken, view yourself as feeling broken at certain times in your life. As a human, you don’t really break. You have scars and you have wounds that you can wear and choose to learn from and grow.
   
  No matter how deep and dark your experience has been, you can heal and you can feel positive again and lift others up at the same time instead of being beaten down and stripped bare.
   
  When wondering why some of your past trauma still hurts you so much when you have done so much work to recover, perhaps it is because you are still holding on to trying to work out how to forgive and You do not need to forget what happened to you, you need to honour what happened to you.
   
  For all the good, the bad and the ugly that has happened to you, you need to honour it without forgetting.
  Forgiving is so freeing and so healing that you don’t need to forget. You can forgive and still honour your trauma.
  
 BEST MOMENTS 
 “I learnt to trust the process and I found my voice through visual art.”
 “Who I want to be and who I am are very aligned.”
 “That was pivotal in our recovery.”
 “Nothing has changed in the world except my perspective. I was given a second chance.”

      <title>E187: Look Outward But Focus Inward: Amy Rowlinson Interview</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/187-fitb</link>
      <description>DESCRIPTION 
 Life purpose coach, podcast mentor and fulfilments leader, Amy Rowlinson joins the podcast today to talk us through her journey through life and how she created her passion plan which enables people to focus on their why. Together, Pete and Amy discuss how your fire in the belly is a blend of all your values, why it is important to use your toughest  life lessons to educate others  and why there is so much in life to be discovered if you dare to look for it.
  
 KEY TAKEAWAYS 
  It is all about understanding when you are ‘in-flow’ and realising that life is not just about ‘finding your why’. Focus on your ‘why’ and understand that your ‘why’ is a constant and is not just one piece of information about you that you do for an exercise. Carry your why through and follow that thread in your life. Look outward but focus inwards.
   
  Fire in the belly is a blend of all your values. It doesn't come from a materialistic perspective but it comes from a meaningful and purposeful perspective. Fire in the belly is passion, purpose, freedom and brilliance. Have that fire in the belly every single day, whilst you are still earthside, you are not done.
   
  It is important to always see a balance in life. Where you see conflict you must also see peace, where you see intelligence you must also see ignorance. There are always both elements present but you always chose to see one over the other. It is often when we do not see the positive sides and focus on the negative sides that we have an unbalanced viewpoint.
   
  Do not live by your regret. Use your mistakes to help educate others in the ways that you have learnt some tough life lessons.
   
  There is so much in life to be found, discovered or unearthed if you dare to look. Often, people are just sitting there. It is usually right there with you, it is just a case of listening to yourself, being true to yourself and exploring your options in a deeper fashion, only then will you get the answers that you need.
   
 BEST MOMENTS 
 “Look outward but focus inward.”
 “It is not a quick fix, it is an ongoing focus.”
 “Whilst I am still breathing, I am not done.”
 “To see the light you have got to see the dark.”
 “It is difficult to know if I have been in the past, because I often feel like I have been to the future as well.”
  
 ABOUT THE GUEST
 “Hi, I’m Amy Rowlinson. I’m a Life Purpose Coach, Podcast Mentor and a leader in purpose and fulfilment.
 ​At the heart of what I do is simple, I help people to focus on their WHY with clarity, uniting their passion and purpose with a plan to create the life they truly desire.I have a fascination for understanding what drives people in life and working with my coaching clients the question WHY sits at the heart of every decision they make. As I spend so much time with this one question, I even have a podcast called Focus on WHY where I speak with people from all walks of life providing uplifting and relatable conversations designed to inspire you to take action.”

Where you see conflict you must also see peace, where you see intelligence you must also see ignorance. There are always both elements present but you always chose to see one over the other.

      <title>E186: Don’t let the opinion of others block your future”- Grainne McCoy Interview</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/186-fitb</link>
      <description>Apprentice UK semi-finalist, experienced make-up artist and business owner, Grainne McCoy joins Pete today to discuss how she risked everything to open up a brand new shop during the pandemic and how she has taken it from strength to strength. Together they discuss how arrogance of a business owner can block the company's growth, how the pandemic has encouraged people to support local businesses and why you should not fixate yourself with the negative things people may say about you.
  
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  So many people would not admit that their business is not good at certain things, however, this is how your business grows. If there is any sort of arrogance within the owner of the business who thinks that they can do everything right and not take any criticism then it is never going to work.
   
  If you dwell on an idea too much and do not create action straight away, the fear overtakes the idea and it will not end up happening. You have to be very quick and savvy about what you want to do, get your first idea out there about how you want to do something and follow through with it. Have that mindset of ‘I don’t know how to do it, but I will figure it out along the way”.
   
  One good thing that has come out of the pandemic is the movement for others to support local business owners. ‘Support local’ has to continue post pandemic as well as the ‘be kind’ movement. It is really important for society and it cannot just be a pandemic thing.
   
  Everyday is a school day. If you know who you are and wake up in the morning and you think the same as the day before and act the same with somebody you’ve never met before as you would with your mother, then you know you are authentic. If people do not understand you, then they will have to move on, because you cannot change and you shouldn't want to change just because some people do not understand you.
   
  Going through life, you are going to come across people that do not like you. Everybody is not meant to like you and if you were to get so fixated on comments about you, then you will really put yourself into a dark hole. If you concentrate on people that do not get you you will pull your true self back, always remember there are a lot more people who do get you, than who don’t.
   
 BEST MOMENTS 
 “Don’t let the opinion of others block your future.”
 “Ask, believe and receive is great, but where is the work?”
 “I think people are starting to realise that we definitely need to support the locals.”
 “It was born in a lockdown, it was my lockdown baby.”
 “Do people get me? I don’t think so..”

      <title>E185: Fate will always look after you if you give it a chance to do so-  Karen Newton Interview</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/185-fitb</link>
      <description>Pete is joined by self-proclaimed nomad, author and entrepreneur of the year Karen Newton to discuss her work around the globe and her journey to success. Together they discuss the importance of understanding different cultures, how journaling can allow you to feel better and why fate will always look after you.
  
 KEY TAKEAWAYS 
  
  Travelling, living and working in different countries will allow you to understand different cultures and the way they operate. Many people have pre conceptions of places without ever having experienced them first hand.
   
  Start each day by writing in your journal. Write down every single thought you have in your head until you cannot write anymore. If you feel frustrated with things, and feel as though things have not gone to plan, utilise your journal and write down your frustrations. Writing things down will help you see it all in a new or different way.
   
  Use your journal to talk to yourself. Write your journal as though you are talking to yourself and evaluate what has happened to you that day, and why it has happened to you. Your journal is the key to a lot of stuff, including self-reflection and understanding your feelings towards life situations.
   
  Fate will always look after you if you give it a chance to do so. When one door closes, another door opens and you have got to find that door. There is always a reason for that new door, and new changes in your life. If you focus on where the opportunity is going to be rather than focus on what has been shut off behind you then you are able to move forward and listen and look at what is around you and the new opportunities you have.
   
  
 BEST MOMENTS 
 “I feel like I have got an empty mind, I am ready to go and start learning.”
 “Fate will always look after you if you give it a chance to do so.”
 “Look at what is around you and you will see the opportunities.”
 “It has lost its risk to me because I can understand it.”
 “It was a good learning curve.”
 “I always wanted to have that glitz and glamour life.”

 ABOUT THE GUEST
  Liam O’Neil https://www.limitationisamirage.com
 “I have been studying Martial arts since I was 16. At the age of 21, I started learning about hypnosis, psychology and magic of the mind as a way to develop my training. Together with my extensive knowledge of body mechanics, I am able to perform astounding feats of strength and control, using my mind, my body or both. When I’m not developing my own abilities, I spend my time helping individuals and companies to realise their full potential. These days, my principal focus is teaching, speaking and training. However, people learn best when they are entertained, not bored. I spent many years entertaining audiences both large and small at corporate events, night clubs, comedy clubs, weddings and parties — even out on the street! I believe my extensive experience as an entertainer is of immense benefit in my current work. Nobody learns anything when they’re bored! My main theme is, ‘Limitation Is A Mirage’. I show individuals and companies how to get past self-limiting beliefs and practices, and start the real process of turning dreams, goals, ambitions and targets into reality. I’m also known as ‘The Prove-It Guy’. I think audiences, especially in the corporate sphere, have had enough of words that sound good but don’t connect with the practical concerns of running a successful business. Every principle I teach, I can demonstrate. Everything I demonstrate, I can teach.”

If you focus on where the opportunity is going to be rather than focus on what has been shut off behind you then you are able to move forward and listen and look at what is around you and the new opportunities you have.
   
  
 BEST MOMENTS 
 “I feel like I have got an empty mind, I am ready to go and start learning.”
 “Fate will always look after you if you give it a chance to do so.”
 “Look at what is around you and you will see the opportunities.”
 “It has lost its risk to me because I can understand it.”
 “It was a good learning curve.”
 “I always wanted to have that glitz and glamour life.”

 ABOUT THE GUEST
  Liam O’Neil https://www.limitationisamirage.com
 “I have been studying Martial arts since I was 16. At the age of 21, I started learning about hypnosis, psychology and magic of the mind as a way to develop my training. Together with my extensive knowledge of body mechanics, I am able to perform astounding feats of strength and control, using my mind, my body or both. When I’m not developing my own abilities, I spend my time helping individuals and companies to realise their full potential. These days, my principal focus is teaching, speaking and training. However, people learn best when they are entertained, not bored. I spent many years entertaining audiences both large and small at corporate events, night clubs, comedy clubs, weddings and parties — even out on the street! I believe my extensive experience as an entertainer is of immense benefit in my current work. Nobody learns anything when they’re bored! My main theme is, ‘Limitation Is A Mirage’. I show individuals and companies how to get past self-limiting beliefs and practices, and start the real process of turning dreams, goals, ambitions and targets into reality. I’m also known as ‘The Prove-It Guy’. I think audiences, especially in the corporate sphere, have had enough of words that sound good but don’t connect with the practical concerns of running a successful business. Every principle I teach, I can demonstrate. Everything I demonstrate, I can teach.”

      <title>E184: Do What Makes A Good Life For You: Lyn Lindbergh Interview</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/184-fitb</link>
      <description>In today’s episode Pete is joined by author, podcaster, fitness influencer and founder of Couch To Active, Lyn Lindbergh to discuss her business venture and why it means so much to her. Together they explore the benefits of beings active and the importance of being a kind, compassionate person and why love and relationships are the most important thing in our lives.
  
 KEY TAKEAWAYS 
  
  Getting active is the one thing you can do that will help your health that is free and has no ill side effects. Although there are all of the benefits associated with getting active, it remains the most underused tool that people use. If you are caught with a chronic illness which sees you in bed every day, it is even more important for you to be active but the barriers you have to get there are sometimes tough to overcome.
   
  ‘Should’ is a word of frustration. If you are saying ‘should’ you are saying you are not happy with how things are in your life right now. There are some non negotiable ‘shoulds’ in life. We all should be kind, compassionate and caring to one another. As far as your own life goes, you should have the freedom to explore and do what makes a good life for you.
   
  Love the people around you. When you see someone you love decline within themselves, you realise that life really comes down to relationships and love. These are the two things that only really matter at the end of it all.
   
  We have issues as a globe that need solving and we have huge problems in the world that need to be addressed but overall, we are way more aligned in agreement on life in general than social media will lead you to believe. It is unfortunate that we have this sense of these huge divides. With listening, there is a way to find commonalities, build bridges and solve those issues.
   
  When you really understand that you are nearing the end of your life and you come to think about your bucket list, the concept of skydiving, underwater sea diving and other wild tasks you may have previously put on it become meaningless.
   
  
 BEST MOMENTS 
 “With all of that, it grew me up and I am able to do what I am doing today.”
 “Do what makes a good life for you.”
 “I am right where I am supposed to be.”
 “There is such a need there, I would love to fulfil that need.”
 “In the end it is really love and the people in my life that really matters.”

      <title>E183: We Can Only Help Ourselves: Interview with Trish Duke.</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/183-fitb</link>
      <description>Mindset coach, motivational speaker and mental health advocate, Trish Duke joins the show today to talk through how the last two and a half years have seen her deep dive into strengthening her knowledge of our mind, thoughts and beliefs. Listen in and join them both as they discuss the traits of introverts, how you can help yourself overcome your toughest mental battles and why comparison is the thief of all your joy.
  
 KEY TAKEAWAYS 
  Many years ago, mental health had a huge stigma around it and many people felt embarrassed to share their feelings with others, including medical professionals. Mental health was not treated the same way as other illnesses, however you should not be embarrassed about what you feel or felt in the past. What you have experienced has made you who you are today and you are a better person because of it.
   
  Being an introvert is wanting to be invited to things, but not wanting to go anywhere. It is being lonely at home and not wanting anyone in your space, unless you really like them. Even if you really like them, you want them to go home soon. Being aware of this is important for people to understand, so they can identify it in themselves or in others, and help to make those who feel like this more comfortable in their own space and at social events.
   
  Moving on from mental health illness can be difficult, you could play the victim and feel sorry for yourself, but there is no power in that, and there is no power in sympathy. If you are in bad form, think about what you can do today to help yourself. You cannot expect somebody else to fix you, whilst they can support and guide you , you have to do that work and empower yourself to feel stronger and better within yourself. 
   
  Don’t compare yourself with other people you know or see online. If you feel like someone is achieving more than you, don’t pit yourself against them, they are in a different place than you. You are facing your own challenge and you cannot compare yourself with anybody because you do not know where they are in their journeys.
   
  When you are happy being yourself, only then will you know that you can do anything you put your mind to. It doesn't matter how old you are, you are never too old to try something. If there are still things that you wish to achieve, get into the frame of mind where you know you can achieve it, and find out how to do it.
   
 BEST MOMENTS 
 “I want to share my knowledge.”
 “I just want you to be you, I am so happy to be me.”
 “Why do you want to bounce back, when you can bounce forward?”
 “There is so much that I am, that I am not even aware of.”
 “There is no power in sympathy.”
 “We can only help ourselves.”

      <title>E182: You Only Have To Get It Right Once - Arnon Barnes Interview</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/182-fitb</link>
      <description>International Speaker, Peak Performance Trainer and Business Mentor, Arnon Barnes joins Pete today to discuss self-sabotage and fear and how you can overcome these emotions. Arnon explains how fear is holding you back from achieving your goals, how strength and confidence comes from within and the importance of taking actions immediately, that your future self will look back on and thank you for.
  
 KEY TAKEAWAYS 
  
  It doesn't matter how many times you fail because ultimately, you only have to get it right once. If you get it right once, you will change your life forever. Sometimes you may have to work hard for ten years until you get that one year that will change everything.
   
  From a fundamental standpoint when people say that they have a fear of poverty, all they are really saying is that they do not trust themselves. When you trust yourself and you own your power, having no money doesn’t matter because you know you will figure it out eventually. Unfortunately, because we are programmed to fear poverty, many people work 9-5 until they are 65 and do not explore achieving their dreams.
   
  Fear is holding you back from going for your goals, not danger. People perceive reaching for your goals as dangerous, but nothing is going to happen to you if you go to new meetings and create new opportunities, even if they do not work out initially. Learn from your mistakes and come back stronger and with a better offer.
   
  If you want to have more money, more success, better health and be kinder, then you need to change. Everybody is looking outside for answers, but when you take responsibility and you look within you will realise that your strength, confidence and talents live within you. This is when things start to transform, and that is leadership.
   
  Everybody has their own story that they are telling themselves, and everyone has two representatives. One representative that is empowering us and one that is not, the question is, which one do you listen to more? People put so much attention and attachment on money when you detach yourself from it, you will become empowered.
   
  People sabotage themselves because they do not have a clear vision of what they want to achieve in the future. So many people sabotage themselves because they get caught up in their emotions. Instead of being the eye of the storm they are the storm.
   
  Make a decision today that your future self will thank you for. Take an action, connect with another person, align with someone who can support you, you will look back on that action and be thankful. A lot of people do not make those decisions because they are afraid.
   
  
 BEST MOMENTS 
 “It is just a mental game.”
 “You only have to get it right once.”
 “We all live ourselves forwards, but it all makes sense when we look backwards.”
 “If you want to have what you want to have you have to become someone you have never been, if you want to be someone you have never been, you have to do things you have never done.”
 “The secret is to fix your roof when the sun is shining.”
  
 ABOUT THE GUEST
 “Arnon Barnes, International Speaker, Peak Performance Trainer and Business Mentor, teaches business owners the mindset of a winner.  He – by own experience and by knowledge – will do anything in his power to let you be the entrepreneur you need to be, making sure every aspect of your life gets better. Arnon’s approach is all about results, business strategies and tactics, but most of all it’s about you. Arnon will give you unconditional and unquestionable support and straight, honest feedback. He takes you out of your comfort zone and tells you what you need to hear, not what you want to hear. He expects a high commitment and a ‘whatever i takes’ mentality of his clients. He will show you what you don’t see yet, leaving you empowered, hopeful and ready for action!”

      <title>E181: I Was Open, I Was Courageous:  Karen McDermott Interview</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/181-fitb</link>
      <description>Author, publisher and law of attraction expert Karen McDemott joins Pete in today’s episode to talk through how her experience with PTSD led her on the path to self discovery and how she ended up where she is today. Join Pete and Karen as they discuss the healing process, how to set intentions rather than goals and how knowledge can eradicate your fear.
  
 KEY TAKEAWAYS 
  One of the finest stages of healing is when you are called to share your story. Hindsight is the most wonderful thing in the world, it gives you the ability to look back and realise that you were ready to process your feelings and release them. If you go through trauma and are not ready to deal with the emotions that come with it, you are in survival mode. Survival mode means you are not ready to heal and do the inner work required to move on from your trauma.
   
  With any personal transformation, you cannot just be thrown to the wolves because it is going to stir things up for you. You are going to have new ambitions and are likely to feel imposter syndrome on your new journey. Support is required for you to serve as reassurance and understand that what you are feeling is normal and valid.
   
  Setting goals is different from setting intentions. Goals are planned out and you have things in place which you need to do in order to achieve that goal, you are usually too preoccupied ticking off your list in order to reach it. Setting an intention is putting your vision out into the universe and saying that you are committed to that intention.
   
  People have forgotten how to ‘know’. So often people go outside for all the answers when really, the answer is within them. Once you have found the answer within yourself, you can go outside and support it happening. If you know the answer yourself why would you let somebody else have that power? Own your power and set yourself intentions and be open to opportunities that may come at you from all around.
   
  Knowledge eradicates fear. Fear comes from the fear of the unknown, but when you know where the source of the fear is coming from and understand that you have the power to move through it then the power is yours again. It is amazing to see someone find the fire in their belly to move through their fears.
   
  There is room for us all in the world, we do not need to compete. Some people love to compete, and that is fine if that makes them happy. Don’t win things for your ego, win them so that you are more visible and so that you can do more for the people you wish to help. Be proud of your achievements all the same.
   
 BEST MOMENTS 
 “When I had this wakeup call I suddenly thought..’I have to share this with people.’”
 “It was very powerful, I couldn’t ignore it.”
 “I absolutely adore what I do. It is my purpose. It is my calling.”
 “It happened because I was open, but I was also courageous.”
 “I didn't like it, but I didn’t fear it. I knew what I needed to do to get through it.”
 “I love being positive and I love seeing the bright side.”

      <title>E180: If We Learn Nothing From This, Then We Don’t Deserve To Be Here - Margarita Khosh Interview</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/180-fitb</link>
      <description>Healthcare expert Margarita Khosh joins Pete today to discuss the impacts COVID-19 had had on her personal life and the healthcare industry. Together, they talk through the delayed grieving process caused by COVID, how mental trauma will manifest itself physically in you and why understanding the patient experience is the key to better healthcare.
  
 KEY TAKEAWAYS 
  The soldier does not have a PTSD episode when they are at war. The soldier has the episode when he comes home. The health care workers are still in the trenches, there is so much trauma that is continuing to happen right now around the world that nobody is grieving yet.
   
  COVID is a robbery, it has robbed us of the way that we grieve, we live and mourn. We cannot do anything the way that we are programmed to do.
   
  Whatever trauma you go through in your life will manifest itself physically in your body. When the patient is physically unwell, there is no reason why healthcare workers do not address the mental well-being of that patient. If someone is being treated by the Gastroenterologists , then it makes sense for them to be seen by the mental health doctors as well.
   
  Systems should be built that align therapists, psychologists and psychiatrists with other healthcare specialists. When this is done, the patient experience is smoother. The patient will be supported in both mind and body.
   
  Therapists should be encouraged to discover who their ‘why’ is and who their ideal patient is. When they recognise this they are able to start leveraging relationships with the right kind of referral partners, from the area.
   
 BEST MOMENTS 
 “This is when it starts to kick in. This is when the things in the world start to make an impact.”
 “All of these things fired me up so much that I thought, if we learn nothing from this, then we don’t deserve to be here.”
 “When we start doing that, then we are actually approaching the patient experience.”
 “We have two souls and we have two hearts”
 ABOUT THE GUEST
 “Your GO-TO Healthcare Strategy Consultant, speaker, moderator, blogger, interviewer, and freelance writer. COVID took my father, so now I simplify and humanize the American health system. My clients are incredible people who include private practice, multi-specialty groups, public health trusts, and healthcare centers.My greatest talent, except my educational event planning? A desire to learn how healthcare operations in other countries can be implemented in the USA to design a system that works for all.”

        <![CDATA[<p>Healthcare expert Margarita Khosh joins Pete today to discuss the impacts COVID-19 had had on her personal life and the healthcare industry. Together, they talk through the delayed grieving process caused by COVID, how mental trauma will manifest itself physically in you and why understanding the patient experience is the key to better healthcare.</p> <p> </p> <p><strong>KEY TAKEAWAYS </strong></p> <ul> <li>The soldier does not have a PTSD episode when they are at war. The soldier has the episode when he comes home. The health care workers are still in the trenches, there is so much trauma that is continuing to happen right now around the world that nobody is grieving yet.</li> </ul> <p> </p> <ul> <li>COVID is a robbery, it has robbed us of the way that we grieve, we live and mourn. We cannot do anything the way that we are programmed to do.</li> </ul> <p> </p> <ul> <li>Whatever trauma you go through in your life will manifest itself physically in your body. When the patient is physically unwell, there is no reason why healthcare workers do not address the mental well-being of that patient. If someone is being treated by the Gastroenterologists , then it makes sense for them to be seen by the mental health doctors as well.</li> </ul> <p> </p> <ul> <li>Systems should be built that align therapists, psychologists and psychiatrists with other healthcare specialists. When this is done, the patient experience is smoother. The patient will be supported in both mind and body.</li> </ul> <p> </p> <ul> <li>Therapists should be encouraged to discover who their ‘why’ is and who their ideal patient is. When they recognise this they are able to start leveraging relationships with the right kind of referral partners, from the area.</li> </ul> <p> </p> <p><strong>BEST MOMENTS </strong></p> <p>“This is when it starts to kick in. This is when the things in the world start to make an impact.”</p> <p>“All of these things fired me up so much that I thought, if we learn nothing from this, then we don’t deserve to be here.”</p> <p>“When we start doing that, then we are actually approaching the patient experience.”</p> <p>“We have two souls and we have two hearts”</p> <p><strong>ABOUT THE GUEST</strong></p> <p>“Your GO-TO Healthcare Strategy Consultant, speaker, moderator, blogger, interviewer, and freelance writer. COVID took my father, so now I simplify and humanize the American health system. My clients are incredible people who include private practice, multi-specialty groups, public health trusts, and healthcare centers.My greatest talent, except my educational event planning? A desire to learn how healthcare operations in other countries can be implemented in the USA to design a system that works for all.”</p> <p>LinkedIn: <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/margarita-khosh">https://www.linkedin.com/in/margarita-khosh</a></p> <p>Company Website: <a href="https://mkmedicalsolutions.com/">https://mkmedicalsolutions.com</a></p> <p><strong>ABOUT THE HOST</strong></p> <p><strong>The ‘Mighty Pete Lonton’ from the ‘Mighty 247’ company is your main host of ‘Fire In The Belly’. </strong></p> <p>Pete is an Entrepreneur, Mentor, Coach, Property Investor, and father of 3 beautiful girls.

      <title>E179: When The Student Is Ready, The Teacher Will Appear. - Scott Schilling Interview</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/179-fitb</link>
      <description>Philanthropist and inspirational mentor Scott Schilling joins Pete today to impart his pearls of wisdom onto us and talk through his journey to success. Together they discuss the importance of sharing your struggles with others, how it can take a major, life changing event to make us realise the fragility of life and how you will only be willing to learn, when you are ready.
  
 KEY TAKEAWAYS 
  There are many people out there who believe they are the only ones facing hardships and roadblocks in their life, by hearing your story they are able to understand that they are not alone. Sharing the challenges you have faced in your life with others, gives people the courage move past their own challenges.
   
  You don’t get paid by the hour, you get paid by the value you add to the hour. When you can add value to other people, it is amazing what can happen. As you become more mature, the information you have picked up when facing challenging scenarios can serve others as lessons.
   
  We are all far more fragile than we tend to think, but we are all far more powerful than we think to. Unfortunately sometimes it takes a major incident to make you realise that you are not bulletproof and you are not immune to things. If you truly want to live out your purpose and you want to do the things you want to do, you may need to examine your life and take different actions.
   
  People think that we are all only given two immediate actions, and that is fight or flight, but we have actually been given three emotions, fight flight and freeze. Freeze is actually the most devastating because freeze basically says ‘I am going to stay put”. Without action there is no ability to gain feedback, and grow.
   
  When the student is ready, the teacher appears. There will be a time when somebody will impart some wisdom and present a potential answer to a question of yours, if you are ready, you will hear it. It takes a critical mass within you to make things happen, you have to get to that point where you say ‘I am sick and tired, of being sick and tired’ and do something different.
   
  Everybody is the most amazing person that they can be. If you want to be more amazing, go and do it. If you want help in it, you can get help, there is a lot of help available. There are people sitting there who would love to help you achieve your goals. Have the courage to take the first step.
   
  
  
 BEST MOMENTS 
 “A certain amount of ego is fine but when you rely totally on ego it is a person putting themselves up and above and over other people, and the last time I checked, you and I were both created equally.”
  
 “Each and everyone of us could say that we could make better choices on a daily basis.”
  
 “Most of the time when we take actions, it is actually the wrong actions, the only way to know that, is to take the wrong action.”
  
 “You can have everything in life that you want when you help other people get what they want.”
  
 “If I can do it anybody can do it.”
  
 “If you don’t have the fire in the belly, that's where the problem lies.”
  
 ABOUT THE GUEST
  
 “I feel extremely blessed to be able to follow my heart and passion to help others through sharing years of experience across a range of industries.  When asked what I do, the short answer is: “I help people, help people!” After spending more than thirty years in the sales, marketing, training, management, and speaking arenas, I am uniquely qualified to help individuals and organizations achieve the success they desire. With vast experience over a range of industries, my value-added conceptual expertise in all aspects of business shouts out loud and clear.”

      <title>E178: I Went To The University Of Life - Marc Jarrett</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/178-fitb</link>
      <description>Virtual networker extraordinaire Marc Jarrett joins Pete today to talk through his interesting and exciting journey through life.  Together they discuss the importance of networking, the freedom that money can bring you and why connecting people is a superpower.
  
 KEY TAKEAWAYS 
  Human beings are social animals and that is why what we are all collectively going through right now, is counter intuitive. We are hardwired to network; it is in our DNA. Networking remains an inherent part of our collective condition.
   
  The best thing that money can buy is the ability not to have to worry about it. Money brings you the freedom to be able to create your own bucket list.
   
  It is important to be aspirational and to want to be better than you currently are. It is important to grow, however most people do not think like that and they live their lives in quiet mediocrity.
   
  So many people want to remain in their comfort zone and if anything disturbs that they begin to retract whereas other people thrive on the disruption. Travel really broadens the mind. If you have the chance to experience different cultures you will become richer.
   
  Enjoy what you are doing and do it professionally. A lot of people do what they do because they feel that they just need to have a job and that is it. Entrepreneurs do what they do because they enjoy it and are therefore very privileged. If you do what you love you will never work a day in your life.
   
  Connecting people is a superpower and not everyone can do it, or wants to do it. Half the battle of getting in front of people is not knowing how to network, or who to network with. Many people are busy people and are looking for a ‘door opener’ to help them meet the people that can help them on their mission.
   
  We are ten times more capable that we give ourselves credit for. However, when you take into consideration other people's opinions, news and broadcasts and all the variations of what is being shown in the news, the brain becomes too busy computing all of life's possibilities that the noise of the environment means we do not listen to our own voice.
   
 BEST MOMENTS 
 “It got a lot of press because it combined celebrity and technology.”
 “Because I got distracted by wine, women and songs when I was at school, I didn’t go to university, I went to the university of life.”
 “I decided, I wanted to get out of my southern metropolitan elite bubble.”
 “Be your own person.”
 “We’re all bombarded with constraints on our time. Nobody seems to have much time anymore”
  
  
  
  
 ABOUT THE GUEST 
 Marc Jarrett: “When I started my career in Banking, I was sometimes reprimanded - quite rightly - for chatting too much. Now, some thirty five years later, I am capitalizing on my gregarious nature by connecting dots and facilitating introductions using the latest virtual networking and event technologies on the market today. Virtual Power-Networking™ is my sweet spot - tell me who you want to get in front of, and I'll do my best to help you meet her. I am currently helping launch two new exciting 'World's First' start-ups”

  So many people want to remain in their comfort zone and if anything disturbs that they begin to retract whereas other people thrive on the disruption. Travel really broadens the mind. If you have the chance to experience different cultures you will become richer.
   
  Enjoy what you are doing and do it professionally. A lot of people do what they do because they feel that they just need to have a job and that is it. Entrepreneurs do what they do because they enjoy it and are therefore very privileged. If you do what you love you will never work a day in your life.
   
  Connecting people is a superpower and not everyone can do it, or wants to do it. Half the battle of getting in front of people is not knowing how to network, or who to network with. Many people are busy people and are looking for a ‘door opener’ to help them meet the people that can help them on their mission.
   
  We are ten times more capable that we give ourselves credit for. However, when you take into consideration other people's opinions, news and broadcasts and all the variations of what is being shown in the news, the brain becomes too busy computing all of life's possibilities that the noise of the environment means we do not listen to our own voice.
   
 BEST MOMENTS 
 “It got a lot of press because it combined celebrity and technology.”
 “Because I got distracted by wine, women and songs when I was at school, I didn’t go to university, I went to the university of life.”
 “I decided, I wanted to get out of my southern metropolitan elite bubble.”
 “Be your own person.”
 “We’re all bombarded with constraints on our time. Nobody seems to have much time anymore”

      <title>E177: I Am A Better Person - Kathleen Metcalf Interview</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/177-fitb</link>
      <description>Entrepreneur, business owner and leadership mentor Kathleen Metcalf joins Pete today all the way from Vancouver, USA. Kathleen shares her inspiring story of how she became the best version of herself as she talks through her battle with alcoholism and her financial struggles. Together they discuss the importance of not letting yourself be defined by your possessions, how your failures serve as valuable lessons and how to look for evidence of a higher power in your daily life.
  
 KEY TAKEAWAYS 
  
  Overcoming tough challenges in your life such as addictions can help you evaluate what wealth and success looks like to you. Think about how you can make a difference in the world and how you can help others, make that your motivation. Your life story has hope and encouragement for others going through a similar time.
   
  When you have nothing, you are able to learn that you are someone. You are not defined by your money, house, car, job or your relationships. You are a person who is no better or worse than anyone. Finding yourself through hardship is so valuable. It is okay to have ‘warts and all’, it is just human and there is nothing to be ashamed of.
   
  Your failures will teach you valuable lessons. Your failures didn’t kill you, it may have been ‘evil bruising’ but you survived it. It will all work out for you eventually, that is a sign of a higher power. The world is full of love, life is happening for you not happening to you, you are not a victim of life, you are a participant in life.
   
  If you are starting again after losing everything, take things one step at a time. You will need to face yourself and it will all work out eventually. Realise that there are a lot of other people who have had similar things happen to them who are afraid to talk about it and don’t know how to get help.
   
  It is okay to be sad and depressed for a day or two. You then need to nurture that flicker of hope a little bit more. Think about who you can talk to, what you can read or watch and take better care of yourself. Then that flicker of hope grows. Look for evidence of a higher power, start noticing all the wonderful things that are happening around you, be they big or small.
   
  Surround yourself with people that are a fantastic support. The naysayers, the people that don’t relate and the negative people are the ones you should not hang around with. It is okay for them to be that way, but if that is not the way you want to live your life, avoid them. Live in what is possible, it is more fun, more exciting and it is happier.
   
 BEST MOMENTS 
 “In that willfulness, I didn't listen to my intuition.”
 “It is more and more about how I can make a difference and how I can help others than it is about the fact that I am fine, I didn’t die when I failed.”
 “I am a very different person, now from then. I am a better person.”
 “I am in the dance with life and just because I step on my own toes or I rip the bottom of my dress, doesn’t mean that I am not going to keep dancing.”
 “Look for evidence of a higher power.”
  
 ABOUT THE GUEST 
 “Hi there! I’m Kathleen Metcalf. I support, guide and mentor entrepreneurs and business owners to overcome professional and personal obstacles so that they can be the leaders, managers, and team members that they WANT to be. Clients work with me when they’re feeling stuck or lack confidence in knowing how to manage their team. They’re tired of the same kinds of issues coming up without finding resolution. They’re ready for their business operations to flow smoothly and for their teams to have more fun and be productive.”

      <title>E176: The Prove It Guy - Liam O’Neil Interview</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/176-fitb</link>
      <description>Today, Pete is joined by Liam O’Neil aka “The Prove It Guy’ a martial arts expert who is currently teaching, speaking and training individuals and companies to reach their full potential. In this episode Pete and Liam discuss the importance of believing that you can achieve whatever it is you want out of life, how to face your fears and how to change your negative mindset into a positive one.
  
 KEY TAKEAWAYS 
  
  People come from different upbringings and childhoods, you can come from a home where you had nothing or you can come from a home that had everything and still not know what you want to do with your life. If you believe that your childhood dictates the life you are destined to lead, then you absolutely will become that. However, if you are willing to challenge that stereotype and move outside your comfort zone, then you have the ability to achieve whatever you want.
   
  You should never worry about what other people think about you. You should only worry about the task at hand. Social media has really made people's self esteem plummet. The obsession with likes, shares and views is terrible because it often makes people change their long standing morals in exchange for likes. People are continuously seeking validation on social media.
   
  We are designed to look for negatives, through evolution and our own pasts when it was all about survival. You constantly look for the bad berries, the bad animals and the bad people. We are very good at spotting negative stuff and we continuously look for that. Rather than say ‘what if somebody boo’s my performance’ think to yourself ‘but what if somebody claps’.
   
  People are afraid of death but are unwilling to look at why they are afraid of it. If you are experiencing anxiety related to your fear of death it is important to understand where the fears have manifested from. It could be because you are scared to never see your family again, to not travel the world or eat nice meals. Whatever you are afraid of missing out on, make sure you are doing in the present. If you don’t, you are already ‘dead’ as you are living your fear.
   
  Whatever you are taught to believe, question it. If you don’t question it then you will believe it and your belief becomes fact, that is how humans seem to work. Every lesson in the world can be amazing and rubbish, it depends on who is learning.
   
 BEST MOMENT 
 “It was also the challenge of going back to those people that told me I would make nothing of my life and saying ‘look what I did’.
 “I just made the decision..something in my head went ‘it is probably a good idea to stick with the KungFu rather than go down that other route.”
 “No matter who the audience is, I can get them up.”
 “Sometimes I will let things go, other times I decide to stand up for myself but I am very much an all or nothing, if i decide to stand up for myself then I am going to be the biggest person in the room.”
 “I want to help people, and if you want to be helped, you will.”

 ABOUT THE GUEST
  Liam O’Neil https://www.limitationisamirage.com
 “I have been studying Martial arts since I was 16. At the age of 21, I started learning about hypnosis, psychology and magic of the mind as a way to develop my training. Together with my extensive knowledge of body mechanics, I am able to perform astounding feats of strength and control, using my mind, my body or both. When I’m not developing my own abilities, I spend my time helping individuals and companies to realise their full potential. These days, my principal focus is teaching, speaking and training. However, people learn best when they are entertained, not bored. I spent many years entertaining audiences both large and small at corporate events, night clubs, comedy clubs, weddings and parties — even out on the street! I believe my extensive experience as an entertainer is of immense benefit in my current work. Nobody learns anything when they’re bored! My main theme is, ‘Limitation Is A Mirage’. I show individuals and companies how to get past self-limiting beliefs and practices, and start the real process of turning dreams, goals, ambitions and targets into reality. I’m also known as ‘The Prove-It Guy’. I think audiences, especially in the corporate sphere, have had enough of words that sound good but don’t connect with the practical concerns of running a successful business. Every principle I teach, I can demonstrate. Everything I demonstrate, I can teach.”
 ABOUT THE HOST

In 2017, at 37 years of age that changed, and he is now on a journey of learning, growing, accepting, and inspiring others.
 Pete can connect with people and intuitively asks questions to reveal a person’s passion and discover how to live their mightiest life. The true power of ‘Fire In The Belly’ is the Q&amp;A’s - Questions and Actions!

      <itunes:summary>Today, Pete is joined by Liam O’Neil aka “The Prove It Guy’ a martial arts expert who is currently teaching, speaking and training individuals and companies to reach their full potential. In this episode Pete and Liam discuss the importance of believing that you can achieve whatever it is you want out of life, how to face your fears and how to change your negative mindset into a positive one.
  
 KEY TAKEAWAYS 
  
  People come from different upbringings and childhoods, you can come from a home where you had nothing or you can come from a home that had everything and still not know what you want to do with your life. If you believe that your childhood dictates the life you are destined to lead, then you absolutely will become that. However, if you are willing to challenge that stereotype and move outside your comfort zone, then you have the ability to achieve whatever you want.
   
  You should never worry about what other people think about you. You should only worry about the task at hand. Social media has really made people's self esteem plummet. The obsession with likes, shares and views is terrible because it often makes people change their long standing morals in exchange for likes. People are continuously seeking validation on social media.
   
  We are designed to look for negatives, through evolution and our own pasts when it was all about survival. You constantly look for the bad berries, the bad animals and the bad people. We are very good at spotting negative stuff and we continuously look for that. Rather than say ‘what if somebody boo’s my performance’ think to yourself ‘but what if somebody claps’.
   
  People are afraid of death but are unwilling to look at why they are afraid of it. If you are experiencing anxiety related to your fear of death it is important to understand where the fears have manifested from. It could be because you are scared to never see your family again, to not travel the world or eat nice meals. Whatever you are afraid of missing out on, make sure you are doing in the present. If you don’t, you are already ‘dead’ as you are living your fear.
   
  Whatever you are taught to believe, question it. If you don’t question it then you will believe it and your belief becomes fact, that is how humans seem to work. Every lesson in the world can be amazing and rubbish, it depends on who is learning.
   
 BEST MOMENT 
 “It was also the challenge of going back to those people that told me I would make nothing of my life and saying ‘look what I did’.
 “I just made the decision..something in my head went ‘it is probably a good idea to stick with the KungFu rather than go down that other route.”
 “No matter who the audience is, I can get them up.”
 “Sometimes I will let things go, other times I decide to stand up for myself but I am very much an all or nothing, if i decide to stand up for myself then I am going to be the biggest person in the room.”
 “I want to help people, and if you want to be helped, you will.”

      <title>E175: Keep Going Against Everything - Julie Hogbin Interview</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/175-fitb</link>
      <description>Julie Hogbin, a leadership and management specialist with a passion for creating and supporting leaders, joins Pete today to talk about everything from overcoming grief, to conscious leadership. Together, they discuss the changes people go through under pressure, the true meaning of love and the importance of understanding who you truly are.
  
 KEY TAKEAWAYS 
  We do change under pressure. Dependent on who we are and what we are, depends how we change. Some people change a lot and it is often a really visible change. Their behaviours will change and the way in which they communicate will change. Others, you won’t show their inner feeling when put under pressure, and eventually they will explode.
   
  Self awareness is vital for everyone in regards to their relationships both personal and/or business. It is important to understand who you are as a person, if you are not staying true to yourself then your mood will be drastically altered. We all operate differently.
   
  Fire in the belly is that driving force for you. It is that thing that keeps you going against everything and anything.
   
  What is love? Intellectually speaking, love is a really strong emotion and you cannot live without someone when you love them. Trying to understand the meaning behind true love and a broken heart is tough and something that is hard to fully comprehend.
   
  Core values are traits such as honesty and freedom. Money does not always have to be a part of your core values, if you love what you are doing and are happy in your job you do not have to leave to go to a job that will pay more where you will be less happy.
   
  There are things that go before us, that come forward in you. We are generational thinking, we are created by generations that lived before. All our ancestors habits and thoughts live on through us. Whilst we are all our own person their quirks breed down unto us.
   
  Create conscious leadership within individuals, business and life. It is important to know why you are doing what you are doing because you lead yourselves first. If you lead yourself well and consciously and that transmutes well to others, then you are consciously living your life.
   
  
 BEST MOMENTS 
 “Who we are is who we are and if we pretend to be anything else then, we are not being who we are and that can affect things drastically.”
 “I actually think..that she saved my life.”
 “I am not surprised that's where I am. I can analyse the situation but that doesn’t mean I am dealing with the emotion of the situation.”
 “I am a caring person for the things that I care about.”
 “I like myself..but do I love myself?”
 “We are 95% habit, so 95% of what we do is unconscious. So, how do we know that is right? You have got to unpick it.”

      <title>E174: Finding your True Self and Purpose - Interview with Ashling Henderson</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/174-fitb</link>
      <description>In this episode, Pete speaks to Ashling Henderson, a new entrepreneur living in Belfast. Her background is in medical science, she has been a scientist since she left university, but Ashling has decided to take a career break to focus solely on her entrepreneurial journey; founding a health and wellness company.
  
 They discuss entrepreneurship, values, mindset, health and more in this thought-provoking and authentic episode.
  
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  Ashling recently became self-employed, she is enjoying having life on her own terms but has still found the change a challenge. There isn’t anyone in her family who have tried the entrepreneurial lifestyle or been their own boss, it’s not an environment she has been exposed to until now.

 Fire in the belly to Ashling means being ambitious, driven and knowing you need to and will excel in something, even if it takes you time to find what that is.

 The health and beauty industry means that Ashling is putting herself out there a lot. She can sometimes struggle with having to show up as her brave self when there are days when she is feeling a lot less than her best. To get through this she reminds herself that being honest about how she is feeling is important as the more she can be authentic, the better she can then show up for others.

 Ashleigh says as a child she wasn’t that different to who she is now! She was always open to learning, sporty and confident. She grew up with a great supportive group of friends and family including her siblings.

   
 BEST MOMENTS 
 “Everything is really, really exciting at the moment”
 “I’m the first one in my family to go after that something different”
 “Adrenaline is my thing”
 “When I am authentic that’s when I can show up as my best self for other people”

      <title>E173: Interview with Cara Macklin</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/173-fitb</link>
      <description>In this episode, Pete speaks to Cara Macklin, an entrepreneur and success coach. Cara grew up in a family business in Northern Ireland in hotels and care homes. She became a director of this business for 15 years until she left to create her own business last year.
  
 Today Pete and Cara discuss change, development, business and mindset.
  
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  Cara has a typical entrepreneurial mindset. She has always looked at change in a positive way and had big ideas and plans. She is constantly looking at what is next, for herself, her business and her clients.

 Cara has always been unique and an individual. She wished we lived in a culture where people were allowed to just be themselves and were celebrated for their differences. We know human beings are different so why do we try to put them in a system to all be the same.

 Cara believes everyone has a Fire in the belly, either they haven’t found it yet or it has been put out by another person. To Cara it means a drive and something that has power over you. It can be an incredible force to help you make a positive change in the world but you must be careful because it can also burn you out.

 Cara believes that if you help people on your team to be the best they can and support them through development then that will strengthen your ability as a leader and make your business more successful.

 As children we are all creative, but as we become adults our creativity is stifled, by schooling, linear learning and the hierarchy. This then carries on into the world of work, people have incredible ideas but creativity is a muscle and a skill, if you don’t use it you lose it.

 Creativity isn’t just about the ‘big ticket ideas’. It comes down to a micro level throughout all teams and people. It’s a mindset and a culture that is created to allow people to explore ideas, innovate and thrive.

   
 BEST MOMENTS 
 “My middle name is change”
 “I love more than anything, making a positive change, on things, business, on people and in society and in the world”
 “I know I can get the best out of people”

      <title>E172: We Have The Power to Heal Ourselves - Interview with Dr. Serena Goldstein</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/172-fitb</link>
      <description>In this episode, Pete speaks to Dr. Serena Goldstein, a naturopathic dr.
  
 They discuss medicine, mental health, self-dvelopment, mindset and more.
  
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  Naturopathic medication is 4-5 years of medical school, which comprises of the usual medical pathways and education for a Dr but then includes a focus on botanical medicine, nutrition, our physical, hydrotherapy etc. at the end. So, when you finish you are primary care trained but with additional education at the end.

 As a teenager, Serena did a lot of extracurricular activities including gymnastics and playing trombone. She injured her arm and could no longer do these, which lead to her feeling hopeless and depressed. She decided to do some research into these thoughts and feelings she was having and the more answers she got the more she realised she needed a therapist.

 She found a great therapist and it inspired her to wanting to get a PHD herself. She went to college and was a psychology major. After speaking with a friend, she then discovered she didn’t understand humanity and its existence and felt she could do more so started to go into medicine. After starting pre-med she visited as naturopathic school and figured out this is exactly what she should be doing with her life.

 Fire in the belly to Serena means when you have a passion that overrides whatever fear and scripts that are in your head or get in your way. 

 It’s so easy to just believe what you have always believed in without challenging it. But challenging these beliefs, especially self-limiting ones, are how you can move to the next stage of your life, to get to a place where you can be truly and authentically you.

 We all learn differently and we also learn from different sources in a multitude of ways. Discovering how you learn and what works for you is another key way to tap into self-exploration.

 When first starting out as a doctor, Serena realised that the medical world is full of specialties and people often need something to ‘latch onto’ before deciding on a Dr. This is why she started to focus on weight and hormones. This was also when she decided to share her own journey and story and found that people were very receptive to this and started to share theirs with her too.

 In other cultures, they don’t see their patients as ‘victims’. They recognise that there are things going on and then it is their job to figure out how to get them back into balance. Western medicine could learn from this approach.

   
 BEST MOMENTS 
 “We have all the tools in our toolbox to not only treat the patient but get to the root of the disease”
 “Who told us this, where did it even come from and what would happen if?”
 “We need stress to survive…but we see what happens when we have too much stress”
 “Health is not different to our lives, it’s part of it”
 “Who are you outside of Dr?”

      <itunes:summary>In this episode, Pete speaks to Dr. Serena Goldstein, a naturopathic dr.
  
 They discuss medicine, mental health, self-dvelopment, mindset and more.
  
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  Naturopathic medication is 4-5 years of medical school, which comprises of the usual medical pathways and education for a Dr but then includes a focus on botanical medicine, nutrition, our physical, hydrotherapy etc. at the end. So, when you finish you are primary care trained but with additional education at the end.

 As a teenager, Serena did a lot of extracurricular activities including gymnastics and playing trombone. She injured her arm and could no longer do these, which lead to her feeling hopeless and depressed. She decided to do some research into these thoughts and feelings she was having and the more answers she got the more she realised she needed a therapist.

 She found a great therapist and it inspired her to wanting to get a PHD herself. She went to college and was a psychology major. After speaking with a friend, she then discovered she didn’t understand humanity and its existence and felt she could do more so started to go into medicine. After starting pre-med she visited as naturopathic school and figured out this is exactly what she should be doing with her life.

      <title>E171: My Life is a Blessing - Interview with Brian Kennedy</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/171-fitb</link>
      <description>In this episode, Pete speaks to Brian Kennedy, a dad, runner, husband, speaker and coach living in Dublin. They talk about his childhood, pressure, mindset and more.
  
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  Brian feels like he is truly blessed for what he has in life. Although he had the traumatic experience of bank robberies, a complicated relationship with his father and suffered a mental exhaustion in 2010 he feels lucky to have experienced what he has and for his beautiful wife and children. The past 10 years of his life have been the happiest in his life, he lives in the present and doesn’t pine for a future as he is living in the now, something that took him a long time to learn.

 Brian’s mother brought him up to have great respect for women and how to manage relationships. He unfortunately didn’t have a god relationship with his father due to him being an alcoholic, it also led him to be scared about becoming a Dad as he didn’t want to become his father.

 Brian got a job in 1978 working for hallmark cards and it was an eye-opener for him even though he had worked in a pub previously. He was shocked at how badly his supervisor treated people, he knew if he was in a position of management he wouldn’t treat people in that way, he knew it wasn’t right.

 It was important for Brian to not disappoint his mother. His drive at a young age was that he just wanted his mum to be proud. Later in life he realised that she would have always been proud of him no matter what.

 It took Brian to have a crisis in his life to reflect on his Dad’s mistakes and behaviours and then learn that he would not repeat the generational trauma.

 In Brian’s head he felt like he needed to earn ‘big money’ and provide above and beyond for his family and children. He puts this down to his upbringing and anxiety around money growing up. It simply was not the case though, his families best memories were nothing to do with wealth and things.
   
 BEST MOMENTS 
 “I’ve always felt blessed with meeting my wife”
 “What is it that was driving you to be the best that you can?”
 “I had no idea this meant so much to my kids”
 “If I had a princess then I needed an empire”

      <title>E170: Always Challenging, Always Changing - Interview with Prof. David Gibson</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/170-fitb</link>
      <description>DESCRIPTION
 In this episode, Pete speaks to Prof David Gibson. David was an accountant but had always had a fascination with personal development. He went back to university but to teach entrepreneurship and created a new career where he was able to make a difference to education and people around the world.
  
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  David deliberately keeps 20% of his time free so that he has time to be an entrepreneur. He sees himself as an entrepreneur as he is a person of change, he believes we all need to be this so that we are able to evolve and make things happen for ourselves, our families, our community and beyond.

 Fire in the belly to David means that you hold onto your passion not matter what, that you are a do-er, you are driven and you do not stay the same. 

 We have to all find our niche. It took David a while to find his but he kept exploring until he found it. It was a spectacular journey and once found he was always wanting to do it and it created the fire in his belly.

 As a child David spent quite some time on his own, creating and coming up with ideas. He was also competitive as well as having an open mind. When he started to enjoy reading at 9 it really opened up his world. He went to grammar school where he did well and then onto university.

 If you don’t have passion, values and belief behind what you are doing then it will not have the same impact. Anything you do with true passion and motivation will be reflected in the result.
   
 BEST MOMENTS 
 “Always challenging, always changing”
 “We have to adapt and change a be an innovator in our own lives as well as within our job role”
 “No matter how old you are or where you’re at you can always look back to those core feelings”
 “The more you do something with joy and passion the better you’ll do it an the more impact it will have”

In 2017, at 37 years of age that changed, and he is now on a journey of learning, growing, accepting, and inspiring others.
 Pete can connect with people and intuitively asks questions to reveal a person’s passion and discover how to live their mightiest life. The true power of ‘Fire In The Belly’ is the Q&amp;A’s - Questions and Actions!
 The ‘Fire In The Belly’ brand and the programme is rapidly expanding into podcasts, seminars, talks, business workshops, development course, and rapid results mentoring.

      <itunes:summary>DESCRIPTION
 In this episode, Pete speaks to Prof David Gibson. David was an accountant but had always had a fascination with personal development. He went back to university but to teach entrepreneurship and created a new career where he was able to make a difference to education and people around the world.
  
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  David deliberately keeps 20% of his time free so that he has time to be an entrepreneur. He sees himself as an entrepreneur as he is a person of change, he believes we all need to be this so that we are able to evolve and make things happen for ourselves, our families, our community and beyond.

 Fire in the belly to David means that you hold onto your passion not matter what, that you are a do-er, you are driven and you do not stay the same. 

 We have to all find our niche. It took David a while to find his but he kept exploring until he found it. It was a spectacular journey and once found he was always wanting to do it and it created the fire in his belly.

 As a child David spent quite some time on his own, creating and coming up with ideas. He was also competitive as well as having an open mind. When he started to enjoy reading at 9 it really opened up his world. He went to grammar school where he did well and then onto university.

 If you don’t have passion, values and belief behind what you are doing then it will not have the same impact. Anything you do with true passion and motivation will be reflected in the result.
   
 BEST MOMENTS 
 “Always challenging, always changing”
 “We have to adapt and change a be an innovator in our own lives as well as within our job role”
 “No matter how old you are or where you’re at you can always look back to those core feelings”
 “The more you do something with joy and passion the better you’ll do it an the more impact it will have”

      <title>E169: Passive Income for a Balanced Life - Interview with Hazel Ruth Thomas</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/169-fitb</link>
      <description>In this episode, Pete speaks to Hazel Ruth Thomas who has a keen passion for creating passive income streams and believes that our work should fit in and around our lives not the other way round. Hazel recently created the concept ‘The Passive Income Mum’ as she is a mum of 3 and wants to get out there and help others to create passive income streams and support them in doing so.
  
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  Passive income is all about doing a job once and getting paid repeatedly for doing it. Some describe it as a pension style income and is about having money coming in whether you are at work or not.
 There are many approaches to creating and sustaining a passive income so it can be a bit of a mind field to anyone who is considering it. This is one of the reasons Hazel has created her concept The Passive Income Mum.
 Hazel is a photographer and she built a photography business. Although it did really well and she loved what she was doing she recognised that she had actually just built herself a job and she didn’t earn money unless she was there ‘creating’ and working. There was no way to outsource what she was doing and she wanted more balance in her life so she made the decision to create passive income streams.
 Financial freedom is Hazel’s end goal. What this means is she wants more money coming in than she needs to think about, to have everything covered and create a lifestyle where she has multiple choices.
 Hazel owns a network marketing business which has been perfect for her. She also runs a property company alongside some friends including rent to rents and air bnb as well as being involved in stocks and shares. None of these things are full time but they all work alongside another to give her a passive income that works for her lifestyle.
 You are the sum of the 5 people you spend the most time with. Spend time with those that are where you want to be and if you don’t like the level you are at now then look at the people you are spending time with.
 The school system is great at giving children the basics but Hazel teaches her children more than this. She wants them to understand how to thrive in life and give them the practical and emotional tools to deal with everything life will throw at them.
 Your relationship with money and how you decide to use it dramatically affects your lifestyle. You can’t get through life without spending money but think, what you are spending your money on, is it something you need or something that will give you a return or is it just instant gratification?
   
 BEST MOMENTS 
 “It gives you options, it gives you choices”
 “I genuinely just love helping people”
 “It’s all about giving myself options and spreading the balance across a few areas”

      <title>E168: Believe In Yourself, Be Curious and Dream - Interview with Alex Cunningham</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/168-fitb</link>
      <description>In this episode, Pete speaks to Alex Cunningham, living in Miami in Florida. He is a 26-year-old sports medicine professional and is also a podcaster, trainer and trader. They discuss trading, podcasting, family, business and what it takes to get you where you want to be in life.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  In trading, no one is right. Some people believe their way is the right way but trading is similar to sports, you have players who play the game totally differently but they are both successful.
 Alex hosts the podcast, Market Adventures, he started this back in June 2020 and it is all about trading and investing. Alex believes anyone who feels they have something to say should podcast, there are endless ways of podcasting and like trading, there isn’t a right way to do it so anyone can get involved.
 Fire in the belly to Alex means something that you can’t stop being curious about. Trading, making money and track and run are his fire in the belly. He has also found maintaining control over what he is able to influence and developing himself personally aid him in his journey.
 Adam’s plan is all about sowing the seeds to have more freedom later in his life. He dreams of the day where he can have complete control and freedom of every single day.
 Alex did well in education. He showed up, did homework and assignments and memorised what he needed to. He found college more difficult as he had to study more but once he figured this out he did well.
 We are constantly conflicted by societies standards. We will find ourselves in situations where we know deep down what the right thing to do is but we don’t tap into that and instead look for easy answers or even excuses.
  BEST MOMENTS 
 “I’m not anti-risk, no one likes to lose money, but I’m not afraid to”
 “Sports have always been a fire in the belly for me”
 “You always have to be prepared mentally for what you want or when you get it and you’re not ready for it, it’s gonna leave you”
 “Reading books to me is something I love to do”
 “We choose to believe society rather than choose to believe ourselves”
 “Allow yourself a little leeway for being human”

 Fire in the belly to Alex means something that you can’t stop being curious about. Trading, making money and track and run are his fire in the belly. He has also found maintaining control over what he is able to influence and developing himself personally aid him in his journey.
 Adam’s plan is all about sowing the seeds to have more freedom later in his life. He dreams of the day where he can have complete control and freedom of every single day.
 Alex did well in education. He showed up, did homework and assignments and memorised what he needed to. He found college more difficult as he had to study more but once he figured this out he did well.
 We are constantly conflicted by societies standards. We will find ourselves in situations where we know deep down what the right thing to do is but we don’t tap into that and instead look for easy answers or even excuses.
  BEST MOMENTS 
 “I’m not anti-risk, no one likes to lose money, but I’m not afraid to”
 “Sports have always been a fire in the belly for me”
 “You always have to be prepared mentally for what you want or when you get it and you’re not ready for it, it’s gonna leave you”
 “Reading books to me is something I love to do”
 “We choose to believe society rather than choose to believe ourselves”
 “Allow yourself a little leeway for being human”

      <title>E167: I Just Want to be Happy - Interview with Amanda Webster</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/167-fitb</link>
      <description>In this episode, Pete speaks to Amanda Webster, a certified mind, body and wellness coach who specialises in nutrition. Amanda is a suicide and rape survivor, both of which, are key reasons she advocates for mental health, support and are her main drive for everything she does.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  A mind, body and wellness coaches purpose is to bridge the gap between the mental and physical health. You can’t truly be ‘healthy’ unless you work on both of these, they are interlinked and affect one another.
 Amanda had been suffering with depression and had been diagnosed with borderline personality disorder when she was wrongly accused of in a legal case, this lead to her almost committing suicide. But she heard a sign and realised she could no longer jump.
 Amanda accessed therapy and it got to the point where she was willing to do anything at all just to feel and be happy but her therapist told her she couldn’t. This made her take her late Dad’s mindset of ‘prove them wrong’ and she had to do so not only for herself but for everyone else like her too.
 We live in an extremely fast paced and difficult society, almost everyone has to deal and cope with some level of anxiety. Whilst Amanda had been diagnosed with a severe mental illness she believed that it wasn’t actually true. She didn’t believe that her illness, if she had one, affected her life severely, so she so she spent a year fighting to get revaluated.
 People try to project their own story, experiences and education on others. This is not helpful as they are pushing their own agenda, whether consciously or subconsciously and this might not be the most helpful or useful advice/help the other person, we need to listen.
 Amanda always felt misunderstood by the therapists she saw and almost all the mental health professionals she met, they never listened to her and this is something she feels is echoed in everyday life with most people.
 Being a rape survivor is something that is so incredibly difficult and not easy for others to understand. One of the hardest lessons Amanda had to learn was forgiveness, she understood that she had to forgive her rapist in order to move on with her life. She will never forget but she had to forgive and not allow the rape to still have power over her.
   
  
 BEST MOMENTS 
 “I was so sure standing on that ledge this is what I have to do”
 “I am tired of being complacent, I just want to be happy”
 “If I don’t prove her wrong, I’m gonna die”
 “Don’t give your power to all these other people”

      <title>E166: Is the Canvas of Art the Same As Our Consciousness? - Interview with Alexander Inchbald p.t 2!</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/166-fitb</link>
      <description>In this episode, Pete carries on his previous conversation with Alexander Inchbald. They delve deeper into art, consciousness, belief systems and personality. An episode with fascinating and intriguing ideas, concepts and discussion.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  Consciousness is a label and it means different things to different people but we can create whatever we want and we can call it consciousness or a canvas, or whatever we like. The label doesn’t matter.
 The area in which Alex lives is known for genius, including Albert Einstein and Carl Jung who both lived within a few hours of the alps.
 We shift brain waves all the time, including multiple times when we go to sleep. The highest brain wave you can access is ‘gamma’ and it is hypothesised that with this brain wave you are connected the most and therefore anything you create reflects this.
 When painting, or doing any creative pursuit, you need to be connected to it the whole time. What that means is even when you have paused painting, writing etc. you need to still be connected to and thinking of what you are creating.
 Alex believes there is a distinction between the collective unconsciousness and imagination.
 Your personality and you change throughout your life based on your experiences. This is why Alex believes that psychometric tests and quizzes aren’t sufficient in telling you who you are. You have to combine this with your inner self, we’re not just an identity.
  BEST MOMENTS 
 “Groundhog Day is the reality of our lives the majority of the time”
 “You need to stay connected to the painting at all times”
 “Understand what is stopping the flow of energy”

      <title>E165: Body Conscious - Interview with Dee Larson</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/165-fitb</link>
      <description>Today Pete speaks to Dee Larson, a conscious sexuality practitioner. Dee works with intimacy, body confidence, anxiety and sexual issues. She works and teaches both individuals and groups using the school of sematics to become aware of what they need in life, to heal and to become their authentic selves.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  Dee grew up with anxiety and shame around who she was in her body and who she was on this earth. When she moved to England for university she realised that culturally there were differences around how English people spoke about sexuality and how they were with nudity, at least in comparison to where she grew up.
 Dee moved back home and worked as a social worker, particularly with children of neglect and abuse. She progressed in her career and after having children worked on her own personal journey and started to see a connection between her self-esteem, sexuality and the differences between how she was taught culturally about these topics vs other cultures and religions.
 Our bodies physicality links to the older part of our brain, when talking about things such as abuse and neglect Dee finds it’s important to incorporate things like breathing and how a person is holding themselves to produce more effective results in therapy. This is also what she is talking about when she talks about being body conscious, connecting the mind to the body, not just about how we ‘feel’ about our body.
 The body can be an uncomfortable place to go to for some, it can be a place of repression, tensions and shame. So, when some people try to connect with the body it can be very difficult and take a lot of practice. This is something Dee specialises in.
 Step back and watch the conversations that take place daily. Consider and think about the things that are said because that is what you, or the other person, is ‘supposed’ to say, and how much feels truly authentic.
 The School of Sematics is an exploration of the emotions, memories and associations that are held in the body at any one time.
 Dee was working as a senior practitioner in the health trust, her marriage had broken down. She got an intense migraine and rash and ignored these symptoms to meet the demands of her job and home life, she hadn’t had time to process a lot of her emotional trauma. She ended up being hospitalised, they didn’t know what was wrong with her, she was exhausted for a year afterwards. She believes this was her bodies way of forcing her to face up to her emotions and to rest. It was the catalyst for a bigger change, in her life journey, to becoming her truly authentic self and helping others do the same.
  BEST MOMENTS 
 “The body is the portal to the mind”
 “The trauma is in the nervous system, not the event”
 “If we continue to ignore our body, your body will find a way to make you listen”

      <title>E164: It’s Magical What the Mind Creates-  Interview with Debbie Spector Weisman</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/164-fitb</link>
      <description>In this episode, Pete speaks to Debbie Spector Weisman a certified dream life coach. She is also an author and podcaster. They talk about depression, higher purpose and of course, dreams!
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  Debbie considers dream life coaching as her third career. Throughout her life, she had often remembered dreams and thought about them but they weren’t a big part of her life until she worked on a project in post-production of a film based around consciousness and dreams.
 This was the catalyst in her getting her coaching training so she could then help and show others why their dreams could be important to them.
 Not every dream you have will be profound, that is normal. But often when people remember dreams there is something there they can learn from.
 There is a lot of scientific evidence as well as 7000 years of human history to back up dream theory.
 Fire in the belly to Debbie means Passion. She found it later in life but she realised dreamwork is her fire in the belly and it has given her power.
 As humans we put a value judgements on everything in our waking lives but dreams do not have these value judgements in them. This is why they can be key to unlocking so many things in life including what you really want.
 So many of us go through life ‘sleeping’. They are not aware of their bigger picture and don’t think too much about whether they are living their true life.
 One of the biggest impacts of learning dreamwork for Debbie was the self confidence it gave her. It then meant she had the confidence to advocate for herself and what she wanted her life to look like.
   
 BEST MOMENTS 
 “All of these things were giant revelations to me”
 “Their dreams could change their lives”
 “Pay attention to your dreams because it’s gonna give you guidance”

      <title>E163: Interview with Ela Staniak</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/ela-staniak</link>
      <description>In this episode, Pete speaks to Ela Staniak who is a feminine leader coach and owns her own business Feminine Leaders.  She works with female leaders, CEOs and business executives to create a partnership that champions their next steps in business and in life.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  A leadership coach focuses on high performance first. Unfortunately, due to the way the corporate and business world have been structured, when women enter the workforce there are still many barriers and challenges they have to overcome. This has meant that many women have sacrificed their own personal values and goals. Ela is all about creating the ultimate life including your values and goals and about building the absolute ultimate in every area of your life.
 Female leaders want everything male leaders want, but they also want equality and mutual respect.
 Men apply for roles when they only meet 60% of the criteria, women generally only apply for roles where they have at least 100% of the criteria. This is indicative of the differences in mindset between men and women, even today.
 Ela believes we all need to embrace both our masculine and feminine energy in life and leadership, no matter who we are. It’s about having a balance of the two and utilising the energy and power in both.
 The workplace needs to be better at managing women and family life. Even in the modern world women take on the bulk of the childcare and fitting it around work. Many workplaces still view women and having children as a negative but women don’t have children on their own.
   
 BEST MOMENTS 
 “The key is to know how to get there and knowing what it is that we truly want in that ultimate”
 “High performance is complex, I simplify the processes for people”
 “These aren’t just women having children, these are families having children…women aren’t having children on their own”

      <title>E162: A Story Only Has a Meaning We Give It -  Interview with Marsha Vanwynsbe</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/marsha-vanwynsbe</link>
      <description>In this episode, Pete speaks to Marsha Vanwynsbe, a speaker, coach and author who wants to help people share their stories. She helps men and women shift their thinking and stand in their difficult stories to empower them.
 They discuss shame, parenting, mindset and much more.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
   Shame is something that is individual. What might be shameful to one person isn’t to someone else and the more we talk about what we find shameful the less power it holds.
 It’s what we do with what has happened to us that matters. Marsha teaches people to separate themselves from their stories and events to see that they do have power and can move forward. They do not have to be defined by what has happened to them.
 Marsha became an advocate for others at a young age after she was assaulted by a group of boys in her hometown. As she got older she recognised that she didn’t have to hold onto her shame and she was in this world to actually do something.
 Marsha has had many challenges and struggles with her children but she then made a conscious decision to stop trying to control every situation and to allow them to make their own mistakes and decisions. Letting go in this way allowed her children to make their own choices as well as giving her the freedom to own what things she could influence.
 As people we constantly take on other peoples shame.
 You can’t love yourself and hate everything that made you who you are. Accept that you learnt lessons along the way and don’t let your stories define you.
 School was challenging for Marsha but it is where she learnt to work hard and how she built her work ethic.
  BEST MOMENTS 
 “I like to take a spotlight and put it on shame stories”
 “If I didn’t change I don’t think I would still be here”
 “Changing me changed my relationship with my kids and my spouse…it made all of our relationships much better”

      <title>E161: Alison Edgar - The Entrepreneurs Godmother</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/alison-edgar-the-entrepreneurs-godmother</link>
      <description>In this episode, Pete speaks to Alison Edgar, The Entrepreneurs Godmother. Alison originally worked in the hospitality industry, living all over the world including Sydney and Cape Town. She moved back to the UK and began working in sales and it was after working in various large companies she began her own business working with entrepreneurs. Alison also delivers talks and education on how to be entrepreneurial including working with the discovery channel and SKY.
 Today she speaks to Pete about business, mindset and much more!
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  Alison is in her 50’s and recognises that a lot of people her age are winding down career wise and thinking about their retirement. But she is just starting, she launched her business in her 40s and has so much passion and energy for business and entrepreneurship.
 Fire in the belly to Alison means waking up in the morning and not finding life and work a chore. She has a fire in her belly in the morning to get up and have a brilliant day.
  Alison struggled with some elements of school including late-diagnosed dyslexia. But what this meant for her is that she had to learn to discover and channel what she was good at from an early age. This and her tremendous work ethic is what has carried her through her career.
 Alison is definitely an extrovert, she gets her energy from being with other people. If she spends too much time on her own she finds herself deflated. However, she also finds she needs a small amount of time to herself to reflect on things.
 Change is something Alison teaches and talks about often. Many of us become scared by change which is understandable but you can alter your mindset to be enthused and intrigued by change instead.
 Alison really enjoys working with the youth. They give her fresh perspectives on things, renewed energy and inspiration.
  BEST MOMENTS 
 “Is it the mindset of having a fire in your belly or is it just having fire in your belly, I think it’s both”
 “If you can really excel at what you’re really good at then the other things don’t matter so much”
 “You’ve got no idea how your behaviours affect other people…you just might change somebody’s life that you don’t even know”
 “It’s easy to overthink when you are on your own”

      <itunes:summary>In this episode, Pete speaks to Alison Edgar, The Entrepreneurs Godmother. Alison originally worked in the hospitality industry, living all over the world including Sydney and Cape Town. She moved back to the UK and began working in sales and it was after working in various large companies she began her own business working with entrepreneurs. Alison also delivers talks and education on how to be entrepreneurial including working with the discovery channel and SKY.
 Today she speaks to Pete about business, mindset and much more!
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  Alison is in her 50’s and recognises that a lot of people her age are winding down career wise and thinking about their retirement. But she is just starting, she launched her business in her 40s and has so much passion and energy for business and entrepreneurship.
 Fire in the belly to Alison means waking up in the morning and not finding life and work a chore. She has a fire in her belly in the morning to get up and have a brilliant day.
  Alison struggled with some elements of school including late-diagnosed dyslexia. But what this meant for her is that she had to learn to discover and channel what she was good at from an early age. This and her tremendous work ethic is what has carried her through her career.
 Alison is definitely an extrovert, she gets her energy from being with other people. If she spends too much time on her own she finds herself deflated. However, she also finds she needs a small amount of time to herself to reflect on things.
 Change is something Alison teaches and talks about often. Many of us become scared by change which is understandable but you can alter your mindset to be enthused and intrigued by change instead.
 Alison really enjoys working with the youth. They give her fresh perspectives on things, renewed energy and inspiration.
  BEST MOMENTS 
 “Is it the mindset of having a fire in your belly or is it just having fire in your belly, I think it’s both”
 “If you can really excel at what you’re really good at then the other things don’t matter so much”
 “You’ve got no idea how your behaviours affect other people…you just might change somebody’s life that you don’t even know”
 “It’s easy to overthink when you are on your own”

      <title>E160: How to be Free - Interview with Dr John Demartini</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/dr-john-demartini</link>
      <description>In this episode, Pete speaks to Dr John Demartini, a teacher and speaker who strives to create his own box and his own world to have true freedom in life.
 They talk about values, living authentically, fulfilment and much more.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
   Fire in the belly to John means someone who is inspired and enthused to pursue something meaningful to them. Having fire in the belly means you will do what it takes to achieve what is important to you.
 Many people compare themselves to others and act like someone they are not. This means what they are committed to and what they want from life is clouded.
 Each of us have a set of values that we believe in. When we are living in alignment with these that is when we are happiest and feel most inspired.
 John delegates everything he can, so then he can have no distractions and just teach like he wants and needs to. He is doing the tasks he truly values. Surround yourself with people who are experts in the things that you find weigh you down or devalue you, then they can take care of those tasks for you.
 Inspiration and motivation are two separate things. If you have to try and motivate people that means they are not inspired, you are trying to create extrinsic motivation. Intrinsic motivation is where you want to be and this comes from within.
 John uses all possible avenues to learn, from lectures to reading. He is constantly wanting to learn, having a broader perspective is what makes us human.
 Mastery comes from celebrating all parts of your life, it doesn’t come from getting rid of half of yourself. You will never love yourself this way and it is a waste of your time.
   
 BEST MOMENTS 
 “Not everybody has that fire to their full extent”
 “Sacrificing to live under others values will eventually make us narcissistic” 
 “Anytime you live by your highest values and priorities your self-worth goes up”
 “I study and write every single day”

      <title>E159: Be Bitter or Be Better - Interview with Christopher Rausch</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/christopher-rausch</link>
      <description>In this episode, Pete speaks to Christopher Rausch a speaker and coach from southern California who inspires people to be different. Christopher spent most of his life trying to be someone he wasn’t and found that being unique is the best way to live your life both authentically and happily.
  
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
   After starting working in personal development Christopher didn’t feel like he had the right fit. He joined a mastermind group and they inspired him to just be himself. This felt so much more natural to him and although he had criticism to begin with now he wouldn’t have it any other way.
 One of the biggest regrets in life for many is that they spent their time pleasing other people. Christopher encourages his clients to stop doing this and set themselves free to live a life where they are authentic and happy.
 Christopher has found it astounding the amount of people who are self-sabotaging their lives and happiness for reasons they don’t even know or understand.
 Fire in the belly to Christopher means you have grit, passion and you are willing to do what is right and what is fair. He also believes that recognising your fire in your belly allows you to pursue your mission in life and have an impact on what you care about.
 Christopher spent most of his adult life working in a corporate environment, but when he was made redundant at his job he decided to use it as an opportunity to really become himself and create the legacy he wanted. He performed well in all his corporate roles but he never felt like he was existing as his true self.
 Growing up in a poor neighbourhood in LA with an alcoholic mother with various psychological issues meant that Christopher grew up being very independent and lonely as a child. It led to him to attention seeking behaviour and having to grow up much quicker than he should have.
 Life is like a book, it has chapters. When a chapter is done that is it, a chapter is created for a purpose and this chapter bridges a journey to another. We are here in life to have multiple experiences, we aren’t supposed to do the same thing our whole lives.

 Pete can connect with people and intuitively asks questions to reveal a person’s passion and discover how to live their mightiest life. The true power of ‘Fire In The Belly’ is the Q&amp;A’s - Questions and Actions!

        <![CDATA[<p>In this episode, Pete speaks to Christopher Rausch a speaker and coach from southern California who inspires people to be different. Christopher spent most of his life trying to be someone he wasn’t and found that being unique is the best way to live your life both authentically and happily.</p> <p> </p> <p><strong>KEY TAKEAWAYS</strong></p> <ul> <li> After starting working in personal development Christopher didn’t feel like he had the right fit. He joined a mastermind group and they inspired him to just be himself. This felt so much more natural to him and although he had criticism to begin with now he wouldn’t have it any other way.</li> <li>One of the biggest regrets in life for many is that they spent their time pleasing other people. Christopher encourages his clients to stop doing this and set themselves free to live a life where they are authentic and happy.</li> <li>Christopher has found it astounding the amount of people who are self-sabotaging their lives and happiness for reasons they don’t even know or understand.</li> <li>Fire in the belly to Christopher means you have grit, passion and you are willing to do what is right and what is fair. He also believes that recognising your fire in your belly allows you to pursue your mission in life and have an impact on what you care about.</li> <li>Christopher spent most of his adult life working in a corporate environment, but when he was made redundant at his job he decided to use it as an opportunity to really become himself and create the legacy he wanted. He performed well in all his corporate roles but he never felt like he was existing as his true self.</li> <li>Growing up in a poor neighbourhood in LA with an alcoholic mother with various psychological issues meant that Christopher grew up being very independent and lonely as a child. It led to him to attention seeking behaviour and having to grow up much quicker than he should have.</li> <li>Life is like a book, it has chapters. When a chapter is done that is it, a chapter is created for a purpose and this chapter bridges a journey to another. We are here in life to have multiple experiences, we aren’t supposed to do the same thing our whole lives.</li> </ul> <p> </p> <p> </p> <p><strong>BEST MOMENTS </strong></p> <p><em>“They like me more now”</em></p> <p><em>“We should always be a work in progress”</em></p> <p><em>“You can be bitter or better”</em></p> <p><strong>VALUABLE RESOURCES</strong></p> <p>Subscribe to Fire In The Belly Podcast on Apple Podcasts (<a href="https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/fire-in-the-belly/id1499375061)">https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/fire-in-the-belly/id1499375061)</a></p> <p><strong>ABOUT THE GUEST</strong></p> <p><strong>Christopher Rausch</strong></p> <p><strong>ABOUT THE HOST</strong></p> <p><strong>The ‘Mighty Pete Lonton’ from the ‘Mighty 247’ company is your main host of ‘Fire In The Belly’. </strong></p> <p>Pete is an Entrepreneur, Mentor, Coach, Property Investor, and father of 3 beautiful girls.

      <title>E158: Coaching, Leadership and Culture with Rene Carayol</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/rene-carayol</link>
      <description>In this episode, Pete speaks to Rene Carayol, an executive coach who specialises in helping new CEO’s around the world with an impressive back catalogue of clients. When he is not coaching, he is usually speaking and talking on leadership.
  
 They talk about business, emotional intelligence, inclusivity and much more.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  After the tragedy of George Floyds death Rene found he was contacted by many executives, mostly middle aged white men, about what they needed to do to be more inclusive. He was honest with them and told them that being not racist is not enough you have to be anti-racist and that they will probably make mistakes along their journey to become better but people will see their intent.
 We all have work to do to build a more inclusive and fairer society. It is worth understanding at acknowledging that a lot of the barriers to change are actually generational.
 Leadership and ‘The Top’ are different things. Managers are at the top of an organisation, leaders are everywhere.
 The pathway to success is to ask someone close to you who is honest about what your strengths are. Whatever they tell you, follow and work that into your career path to see true success, focus on your skills.
 Teams are the future. Collaboration is the new way to lead.
 Rene calls himself the ‘accidental coach’, one of the reasons for this is because to coach CEO’s he ends up coaching the people and teams around them as well.
 As a CEO you are the ultimate role model. You create the culture, it comes from the top.
  BEST MOMENTS 
 “It’s been challenging but brilliant work”
 “Managers talk strategy, leaders tell stories”
 “Every single one of us is brilliant at something, not one of us is brilliant at everything”

      <title>E157: How Breath Work Saved Me - Interview with Aaron Deane</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/157-fitb</link>
      <description>In this episode, Pete speaks to Aaron Deane a cyclist, coach, yoga teacher and traveller. It was when he was travelling he discovered the art of ‘breath work’ and this is what led him to studying the ‘Win Home Method’ and it’s three pillars.
 Today they talk about Aaron’s life of sport, his struggles with mental health and how he overcame many of his problems, both physical and emotional, through the power of breath work.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  Aaron had a difficult childhood but was always taught to just ‘get on with it’ so never tried to heal his trauma. He has struggled a lot of his life with aspects of loneliness and depression but it wasn’t until after he had got married had children and experienced the trauma of losing his brother that his mental health problems truly spiralled.
 Aaron recognises that he had a good life from the outside. He was lucky to have a lovely family and home but he couldn’t help but feel the way he did, he felt like a burden.
 Aaron discovered breathing exercises and it was this that completely transformed his life. It was the holy grail to him, he no longer needed antidepressants and it was something he was completely in control of.
 This lead to Aaron becoming invested in breath work and wanting to train to be a coach in it to help others.
 You can’t be happy every single day of your life, you then wouldn’t appreciate the good days. But Aaron now has the right tools that work for him to cope and deal with the bad days and he teaches this to other too.
   
 BEST MOMENTS 
 “I didn’t know what trauma was I just thought, get on with it, so I did”
 “Every disease on this planet manifests from some kind of stress”
 “What I felt inside, that was the holy grail for me”
 “When you are having a bad day, acknowledge it and feel it and just say it’s only today”

      <title>E156: Look In The Mirror -  Interview with Michael Shinnick</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/156-fitb</link>
      <description>In this episode, Pete speaks to Michael Shinnick, an entrepreneurial business coach based in Dublin. Michael also runs a 7-figure e-commerce business that he started in 2014.
 Listen in to hear Pete and Michael talk about all things coaching and what it takes to be successful and the steps that can get you there.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  Everything in your life is a reflection of you and where you are, whether that is your business, bank account or your relationships. For Michael to help people with their business he needs to understand what is happening with the individual, their beliefs and their values as well as certain tactics.
 Your business is just a vehicle to get what you want in life but what do you actually want? This is a probing question that Michael asks his clients to really get into their current mindset.
 If you can change the way you think about something and change to a culture of engagement in a business then you can ultimately change how the organisation operates from all angles.
 Fire in the belly to Michael is whatever it is that will make you take action.
 Your environment is possibly one of the most important things that impact you, your mindset and ultimately your life. Who you are talking with and being around on a daily basis has a massive impact on how you think and act. Surround yourself with the right people.
 Michael spent quite some time working in the investment and banking industry. But he had always wanted to do something for himself and ultimately it was this desire and his need to help people that brought him into coaching.
 From a psychological perspective it's important that you reward yourself for hard work and for when things go well. There are difficult times in all businesses and difficult tasks we all have to push through, remind yourself of these and how far you have come. Celebrate both your own and your teams wins.
  BEST MOMENTS 
 “The main thing they look for is someone they respect and someone in the market as well”
 “The entrepreneurial world can be lonely”
 “If you’re the best person in the room, you’re in the wrong room”
 “Nothing in a business happens unless a sale is made”

      <title>E155: Interview with Kim Basler</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/interview-with-kim-basler</link>
      <description>In this episode, Pete speaks to Kim Basler, a food freedom and mindset coach. She also works in the fitness industry and is a mother, wife and dog lover!
 Kim teaches women freedom around food and releasing the guilt and shame around what, when and how we eat. She aims to give them the freedom they aim for around food and give them the power to use food in the way that serves them.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  Four years ago Kim had a big awakening and shift in her life and this is where her new journey began.
 Diet culture specifically tells us if we lose weight, eat the proper way, that we are going to be happier. Kim really goes into peoples disordered eating patterns to find out what will truly make them happy rather than their weight. Food is the symptom, not the cause.
 Fire in the belly to Kim means believing who you are and getting out of your own way. Being able to find and follow your purpose in life.
  BEST MOMENTS 
 “They’re ready to do the work, they’re ready to learn”
 “There are too many people living in this world without this fire in their belly”

      <title>E154: Thy Mary Godmother -  Interview with Mary Keogh</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/154-fitb</link>
      <description>In this episode, Pete speaks to Mary Keogh, The Mary Godmother. Mary is a life coach and has a passion for helping women to become the best version of themselves. She uses her own life experiences and desire to give back to help as many women as she can.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  Mary calls herself a transformational life consultant which means she begins with helping people choose a goal and then begin the ‘re-journey’ of working towards this goal.
 When she was younger, Mary didn’t feel like she was good enough. It meant that she got married and had her first child very quickly. She then found herself incredibly unhappy and lonely.
 Mary stayed as a full-time mother and had more children, they were and always have been her world. Unfortunately, two of her sons became addicts which lead to violence and she struggled tremendously with feelings of failure. She ended up having to detach herself from them to be able to look after her daughters and to cope with life.
 When Mary started on her journey of self-discovery and renewal the part she struggled with the most was self-homage. She had only ever seen herself as a wife and a mother and didn’t feel like she had done a great job of either. This step was a real challenge for her but she managed by changing her perception of herself and how she would talk to herself.
 For Mary, imagination and visualising things is incredibly helpful and healing for her.
 Mary uses the same steps and insights from her own journey on her clients and she watches them emerge as she did.
 Mary recognises that she carried her broken childhood as an adult. She carried it with her so much that her actions were still childlike as an adult.
  BEST MOMENTS 
 “We have to backtrack and take a look at who we are”
 “I began to change that hatred self-talk”
 “I could not see what other people saw”
 “Life’s not wonderful but I make it the best I can make it”
 “The only person, thing that was missing in my life was me, it was Mary”

      <itunes:summary>In this episode, Pete speaks to Mary Keogh, The Mary Godmother. Mary is a life coach and has a passion for helping women to become the best version of themselves. She uses her own life experiences and desire to give back to help as many women as she can.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  Mary calls herself a transformational life consultant which means she begins with helping people choose a goal and then begin the ‘re-journey’ of working towards this goal.
 When she was younger, Mary didn’t feel like she was good enough. It meant that she got married and had her first child very quickly. She then found herself incredibly unhappy and lonely.
 Mary stayed as a full-time mother and had more children, they were and always have been her world. Unfortunately, two of her sons became addicts which lead to violence and she struggled tremendously with feelings of failure. She ended up having to detach herself from them to be able to look after her daughters and to cope with life.
 When Mary started on her journey of self-discovery and renewal the part she struggled with the most was self-homage. She had only ever seen herself as a wife and a mother and didn’t feel like she had done a great job of either. This step was a real challenge for her but she managed by changing her perception of herself and how she would talk to herself.
 For Mary, imagination and visualising things is incredibly helpful and healing for her.
 Mary uses the same steps and insights from her own journey on her clients and she watches them emerge as she did.
 Mary recognises that she carried her broken childhood as an adult. She carried it with her so much that her actions were still childlike as an adult.
  BEST MOMENTS 
 “We have to backtrack and take a look at who we are”
 “I began to change that hatred self-talk”
 “I could not see what other people saw”
 “Life’s not wonderful but I make it the best I can make it”
 “The only person, thing that was missing in my life was me, it was Mary”

      <title>E153: Trust, Failure and Finance - Interview with Andrew Stotz</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/andrew-stotz</link>
      <description>In this episode, Pete speaks to business owner, coach and teacher Andrew Stotz. Andrew currently lives and works in Bangkok in Thailand with his two companies that he co-owns. He is crazy about finance and he has a CFA designation and then got a PHD in finance at the age of 50. He loves reading and learning and that is why he is where he is today. He also runs a podcast called ‘my worst investment ever’ where he talks to people about their stories and learnings as well as sharing his own journey.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  Andrew grew up in Ohio in the USA. By his late teens he had survived multiple suicide attempts and went into rehab. He has now been sober since 1982, this defined him from the age of 17.
 If you quit a lot it will take you away from the things that don’t serve or work for you and towards the things that work. That’s the story of Andrew’s life.
 Andrew is an analyst at heart, not just in finance but in all aspects of his life. It colours his world and it’s how he interprets, makes decisions and sees everything.
 Andrew recognises that for him numbers are simply a tool. They are a thing he uses to structure arguments and meaning.
 Anyone can learn financing and numbers but what sets people apart are their ethics. How you communicate, demonstrate trustworthiness and confidentiality are just some of the ways your ethics can stand you apart from others and add value.
 There are a lot of formulas, calculations and such in the finance world, when learning it can make you feel like there is a lot of certainty. But Andrew likes to remind his students and others that these are all just hypotheses and in the real world nothing is certain and they might not solve your problems.
 Taking complex things and simplifying them is one of the things Andrew loves to do. He acknowledges that some things are incredibly difficult to understand and break down and never gets frustrated with those who do not understand finance. When it comes to finance you cannot skip a step, this is often where confusion is born.
 Andrew describes his business experience as being ‘forged in the fire of failure’. It’s one of the many reasons he started his podcast. He believes you can learn so much more from when things have gone wrong and mistakes, not just your own but others too. Unfortunately, not everyone is comfortable being so vulnerable and open about their failures so he often gets refusals when asking guests to come on.
 The reason so many people fail in business and investment is because they don't do enough research and they fail to properly assess and manage risk.
  BEST MOMENTS 
 “I just haven’t stopped running since then”
 “There’s a lot of people who don’t want to reveal their mistakes”
 “The best hooks are emotional”
 “Trust is valuable”
 “Only do what only you can do”

      <title>E152: Be More Giraffe - Interview with Elliot Kay</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/elliot-kay</link>
      <description>In this episode, Pete speaks to entrepreneur and public speaker Elliot Kay. He is the cofounder of speaker express and works with businesses to reach their full potential, particularly in using speaking as a marketing strategy. He is also a bestselling author and above everything else a Dad and a Husband.
 They discuss speaking, business and Elliot’s childhood, as well as his plans for the future.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  Elliot appreciates that he has a lot to be thankful for and he has achieved some great success already. But he is future focused and still desires a lot more from his life and business. He wants more because he wants to be able to provide and offer more.
 When you are speaking in a business capacity you need to think about who you are trying to market to, who it is that is going to buy from you. You also need absolute clarity in the language and communication you use with those in your market.
 You need to be a great storyteller no matter what market you are in. You’ve got to be able to deliver with impact and be memorable. People will remember how you made them feel, you need current and up to date content.
 People are now looking for experts that speak rather than ‘speakers’.
 Fire in the belly to Elliot means that inner, drive, passion and bite to achieve something.
 As a child and young adult Elliot realises he had a bit of a victim complex. He now knows this was due to a variety of things including abuse and his dyslexia. When his business and relationships started failing he then decided to tackle these thoughts and attitude head on.
 Elliott suffered from depression a couple of years ago. He found it really difficult to share his feelings with anyone else and it meant that he ended up getting to breaking point before getting help. Comparison is the thief of joy and Elliot knows that his depression was due to him comparing many aspects of his life as well as underlying issues he had with his own self-worth.
 In speaking structure is important, when you have a solid structure it allows you to play around but end up where you want to end up. Don’t confuse structure with a script.
 Elliot’s time and career as a dancer taught him many life lessons and has helped him in his business choices and decisions too.
  BEST MOMENTS 
 “That’s what leads me that’s what makes me get up in the morning”
 “As long as my kids are smiling that’s a success”
 “Can I be the dad she needs me to be?”
 “Speaking is so powerful”

 ABOUT THE GUEST
 Elliot Kay
 Elliot has been doing stage performances and public speaking since he was 11.

      <itunes:summary>In this episode, Pete speaks to entrepreneur and public speaker Elliot Kay. He is the cofounder of speaker express and works with businesses to reach their full potential, particularly in using speaking as a marketing strategy. He is also a bestselling author and above everything else a Dad and a Husband.
 They discuss speaking, business and Elliot’s childhood, as well as his plans for the future.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  Elliot appreciates that he has a lot to be thankful for and he has achieved some great success already. But he is future focused and still desires a lot more from his life and business. He wants more because he wants to be able to provide and offer more.
 When you are speaking in a business capacity you need to think about who you are trying to market to, who it is that is going to buy from you. You also need absolute clarity in the language and communication you use with those in your market.
 You need to be a great storyteller no matter what market you are in. You’ve got to be able to deliver with impact and be memorable. People will remember how you made them feel, you need current and up to date content.
 People are now looking for experts that speak rather than ‘speakers’.
 Fire in the belly to Elliot means that inner, drive, passion and bite to achieve something.
 As a child and young adult Elliot realises he had a bit of a victim complex. He now knows this was due to a variety of things including abuse and his dyslexia. When his business and relationships started failing he then decided to tackle these thoughts and attitude head on.
 Elliott suffered from depression a couple of years ago. He found it really difficult to share his feelings with anyone else and it meant that he ended up getting to breaking point before getting help. Comparison is the thief of joy and Elliot knows that his depression was due to him comparing many aspects of his life as well as underlying issues he had with his own self-worth.
 In speaking structure is important, when you have a solid structure it allows you to play around but end up where you want to end up. Don’t confuse structure with a script.
 Elliot’s time and career as a dancer taught him many life lessons and has helped him in his business choices and decisions too.
  BEST MOMENTS 
 “That’s what leads me that’s what makes me get up in the morning”
 “As long as my kids are smiling that’s a success”
 “Can I be the dad she needs me to be?”
 “Speaking is so powerful”

      <title>E151: Bring It On - Interview with Franciska Kosman</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/franciska-kosman</link>
      <description>In this episode, Pete speaks to Franciska Kosman, a singer, composer, producer, podcaster and coach. She is also a mother, wife and one of seven children. She grew up in Moscow, Russia but now lives in the USA.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  Fire in the belly to Franciska means whatever drives you, what is the fire within in you that doesn’t allow you to just take life as it comes. What is it that makes you get up in the morning and fight something.
 Singing in Franciska’s culture is complicated so she began to interview women in her position about what they did. This is how she built up a camaraderie and database of women in this space.
 Her theme in podcasting is ‘the elephant in the room’ and giving the underdog a voice.
 Being a Rabbi’s daughter and that experience growing up meant that Franciska knew she was always being watched and had to play a certain role. It has helped her in life now, particularly with being in the public eye. However, it also meant that she had to learn to find her own voice and her own brand.
 Franciska’s parents moved to Russia and raised all their children there. It was Franciska’s mum who first suggested she write a song and being in Moscow she had lots of opportunities to develop musically including piano lessons and going to music school.
 As a child Franciska put a lot of pressure on herself in music and at school. She is her was her biggest critic, but now she tries to control less of her life and finds life much more relaxing and stress-free.
 As an orthodox Jew, Franciska has daily struggles with a lot of stricter rules. She doesn’t want to alienate those she wants to inspire but it’s still difficult for her. She believes that girls in the community should grow up knowing that there are women who sing and women who are following their passions but it is still important that this is done in the right way.
  BEST MOMENTS 
 “There’s a lot of thought process in what I do”
 “I really feel heard, it’s a magnificent feeling”
 “Ideas come to me, it’s really important for me to prioritise so I can execute them”
 “I don’t see the world in colours I see everything in numbers”
 “Part of my mission is to bring good music, not just sung by men but sung by women”
 “There’s no casual performance for women”

      <title>E150: Interview with Jordan O'Keefe</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/jordan-okeefe</link>
      <description>In this episode, Pete speaks to Jordan O’Keefe, a singer trying to keep his dream alive. Jordan is working out how to find the right balance in his life to create long lasting success and happiness.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  Jordan’s dream as a child was to be on TV and sell out arenas but after having a small taste of being famous and well known by appearing on Britain’s Got Talent his dream has changed. He found it difficult receiving criticism by people who didn’t even know him. Now he just wants to be successful, a life where he isn’t worried about finances but still waking up each day loving what he is doing.
 Fire in the belly to Jordan means the feeling he gets when he sees others achieve, do well and progress. It reminds him of what he should be doing and gives him motivation.
 The process of song writing for Jordan is different for every single song.
 Pete and Jordan agree that the older you get the less you care and take notice of what people think. You realise that the way people react to you says more about them than it does about you.
 Jordan recognises that currently he isn’t achieving everything he wants to, partly due to parenthood and partly due to covid. When the time is right he will be putting the work in, working on his work ethic and getting to where he wants to be.
 People in their later stages in life have so much experience and knowledge, Jordan wants to learn as much as he can from them. He has spent a lot of his life being with older people which he says helped him mature.
 Having small children and being in a small living space can be difficult but there are ways to still achieve what it is you want. It may take you longer and be in smaller steps but it is doable for anyone.
   
 BEST MOMENTS 
 “We all need balance to be happy”
 “That’s the main thing when you’re doing this is that people enjoy it”
 “The older I get I see this differently”
 “The more you learn the more you understand how little you know”
 “Life begins when you choose”

 Pete can connect with people and intuitively asks questions to reveal a person’s passion and discover how to live their mightiest life. The true power of ‘Fire In The Belly’ is the Q&amp;A’s - Questions and Actions!
 The ‘Fire In The Belly’ brand and the programme is rapidly expanding into podcasts, seminars, talks, business workshops, development course, and rapid results mentoring.

      <itunes:summary>In this episode, Pete speaks to Jordan O’Keefe, a singer trying to keep his dream alive. Jordan is working out how to find the right balance in his life to create long lasting success and happiness.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  Jordan’s dream as a child was to be on TV and sell out arenas but after having a small taste of being famous and well known by appearing on Britain’s Got Talent his dream has changed. He found it difficult receiving criticism by people who didn’t even know him. Now he just wants to be successful, a life where he isn’t worried about finances but still waking up each day loving what he is doing.
 Fire in the belly to Jordan means the feeling he gets when he sees others achieve, do well and progress. It reminds him of what he should be doing and gives him motivation.
 The process of song writing for Jordan is different for every single song.
 Pete and Jordan agree that the older you get the less you care and take notice of what people think. You realise that the way people react to you says more about them than it does about you.
 Jordan recognises that currently he isn’t achieving everything he wants to, partly due to parenthood and partly due to covid. When the time is right he will be putting the work in, working on his work ethic and getting to where he wants to be.
 People in their later stages in life have so much experience and knowledge, Jordan wants to learn as much as he can from them. He has spent a lot of his life being with older people which he says helped him mature.
 Having small children and being in a small living space can be difficult but there are ways to still achieve what it is you want. It may take you longer and be in smaller steps but it is doable for anyone.
   
 BEST MOMENTS 
 “We all need balance to be happy”
 “That’s the main thing when you’re doing this is that people enjoy it”
 “The older I get I see this differently”
 “The more you learn the more you understand how little you know”
 “Life begins when you choose”

      <title>E149: Everyone Has a Masterpiece - Interview with Alexander Inchbald</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/alexander-inchbald</link>
      <description>Today Pete speaks to Alexander Inchbald, British born but currently living in Switzerland. Alex helps people learn to love what they do. He helps individuals, teams and organizations seize this historic opportunity in an ever-changing world and step into a new reality. He helps them by creating a solid foundation to forge their ‘masterpiece’. He does this through coaching, creating workshops and programmes as well as through his artwork.
  
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  A masterpiece is the greatest thing you can create for yourself, for your family and to society.
   Alex always felt he was a creative but followed what his father wanted him to do and really struggled with life. He got the job he thought he wanted but was miserable, when he was then made redundant he hit rock bottom but a series of events lead him back to painting.
 Alex now paints in extreme locations, he says this is what taught him to creative everywhere.
   We are living through the greatest transition since The Industrial Revolution. The institutions upon which the modern world was created - health, finance, education, military - are dissolving around us. This can be disconcerting and disorienting. However, nature abhors a vacuum. So, what world would you like to fill the space being created?
 The last time we had an opportunity of this magnitude was after 9/11. We missed the opportunity then, because we didn't have the tech or the mindset to take advantage of this opportunity but now we do.
   We all have an ‘outer’ and an ‘inner’ game. The outer game is our identity, we access this through our five physical senses. As a society we mostly focus on this outer space, the physical, what we can see. The inner game is the ‘sixth sense’, our intuition. The key to unlocking our inner game is via purpose.
   BEST MOMENTS 
 “Everyone has a masterpiece in them”
 “Everyone is an artist today, but not necessarily the artist who paints, the artist who sculpts, or writes”
 “Is one season more powerful than another? No. But are we neglecting one season? Yes”
 “A lot of gurus say to empty your mind. But what they really mean is come from a space of ‘nothingness’”
 “One of the biggest myths is that it is hard work to generate money”
 "Sometimes good doesn't happen so great can"

 Pete can connect with people and intuitively asks questions to reveal a person’s passion and discover how to live their mightiest life. The true power of ‘Fire In The Belly’ is the Q&amp;A’s - Questions and Actions!
 The ‘Fire In The Belly’ brand and the programme is rapidly expanding into podcasts, seminars, talks, business workshops, development course, and rapid results mentoring.

      <title>E147: Tell Me More -  Interview with Andy Bounds</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/andy-bounds</link>
      <description>In this episode, Pete speaks to Andy Bounds. Andy helps his customers to sell more and communicate better, he has won awards and written books too! Andy’s mother is blind and it meant that he got very good at explaining things to others that didn’t see the world in the same way he did.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
   Andy has felt fire in his belly throughout all of lockdown because of the importance of communication and being unable to do it in the same way. Some of our senses are diminished so we are having to heighten others. Those who may have winged it in a work setting is unable to do so now. You can ‘get away’ with less, you need to be extra prepared for meetings.
   When you’re going into a virtual meeting, don’t just prepare what you are talking about but think of good questions too so you can ensure the other people contribute.
   You can judge how communication has worked by looking at what happens after it. For example, if you think you have done an excellent, thorough email but the person who sees it thinks it’s too long so doesn’t read it, it means you may have thought you have done something fantastic but what happened after isn’t what you wanted.
 The first thing you need to do before initiating communication (e.g. sending an email or making a phone call) is figure out what ‘working communication’ would be in each scenario.
 Think about how to make both parties happy with communication, be empathetic, be kind and use a channel you are both happy with.
 Fire in the belly to Andy is making sure communication works for everyone.
 So many people don’t know how to be interesting, it’s not difficult they just need to know how to communicate effectively with different types of people.
 Other people love it when you can remember what is important to them. Do whatever you need to facilitate this.
 Andy is passionately ‘nerdily’, ‘geekily’ interested in other people’s views from things which he gets from his mum and dad.
  BEST MOMENTS 
 “Things you may have got away with once you really can’t now so you gotta raise your game” 
 “Communication is always about whether it’s worked or not”
 “The other person is often blind to your world view”
 “I hate selfish communication”
 “If it doesn’t sound like you then it won’t sound like you when you say it”
  “There is no universal truth only perspective”

      <title>E146: A State of Gratitude - Interview with Cliodhna Fullen</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/cliodhna-fullen</link>
      <description>In this episode, Pete speaks to Cliodhna Fullen, a mother, wife and motivational life skills mentor. We all need certain skills for life, especially in how to cope with the everyday trials and tribulations. Cliodhna educates and teaches people these skills and how to stay motivated.
  
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  Cliodhna has always been a positive person and injected motivation and positivity in her life, but she did not realise this was a ‘thing’ that could be taught to others. She read ‘The Secret’ and learnt about law of attraction and the power of intention. It was this that first intrigued her, gave her an interest in the theory and when her growth first started.
 After having her first child, Cliodhna suffered with her mental health and was admitted to hospital. In hospital she did a lot of reflection and internal healing.
 Cliodhna acknowledges that there are aspects of her childhood that were very difficult, but she wouldn’t change her life experiences as it made her who she is today. You can’t go back and change things, you have to learn to accept it.
 Cliodhna lives in a state of absolute gratitude every day, because she knows what it is to struggle in many ways; she has experienced so much in 37 years.
 The first seven years of your life are called your ‘programming years’, where your subconscious is completely open. Meaning, how you are raised, how you feel, what you are exposed to etc has an immense impact on who you ultimately become.
 Cliodhna knows her purpose and wants to use it to help as many people as she can. She is excited and intrigued to see where the rest of her journey will lead her.
 Looking after number one is very important. If you are not ok then how can you be the best version of you for others.
   
 BEST MOMENTS 
 “The only limitations anyone has are in their own mind”
 “Feel it in your hearts and you’ll hold it in your hand”
 “I know what it’s like to have your life suddenly taken off you”
 “My superpower…Helping people realise who they are”

      <title>E145: Defining Your Own Why - Interview with Christina Davis</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/christina-davis</link>
      <description>In this episode, Pete speaks to Christina Davis, a digital nomad coach from New Jersey. Christina helps women push through their fears and create independence with their business.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  Christina has a 12 week programme that she works one-to-one with clients on, to help them achieve a life they have always wanted via travel.
 A digital nomad coach is someone who teaches/coaches individuals how to work and travel at the same time. It’s not for everyone, you have to have a certain type of personality for it to work. Often travel needs to be more than a passion.
 Fire in the belly for Christina means leading the lifestyle where you are able to network with others who are in the same mindset as well as just being able to be her true self.
 Christina finds that for many there is an immense pressure to hit certain milestones and do certain things in life and they are then told that’s what makes you happy. But for Christina, it’s the opposite of all those things that bring her true happiness.
 Christina is a spontaneous and adventurous person, she just wants to live a life where she laughs. She finds she is her true authentic and happy self when she is exploring places and meeting new people.
 Be true to who you are because you have so much to offer others and you can learn an incredible amount from different people too.
 So many people only listen to respond. Once you start listen to simply, listen, the world opens up to you and those you connect with.
 Unlike a lot of people, Christina saw 2020 as a year of greatness. She managed to really discover what it is she wants from life.
  BEST MOMENTS 
 “I am here to help guide them through all of their fears”
 “A nomad is being able to live life on your own terms on your own time and with where you want to go and what you want to do”
 “What else can I do other than laugh at the situations that are ridiculous in life”
 “The world needs you, not another clone”
 “Either you wallow in what you have lost of you turn it into what you gain”

      <title>E144: Interview with Ana Levin</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/ana-levin</link>
      <description>In this episode, Pete speaks to Ana Laura Levin, all the way from the USA! Ana is an energy aligner, heart activator and brand translator.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  Ana says she is in control most of the time but has had to learn that she can’t control everything and be in control all of the time.
 Ana was born a feeler, from a young age she could feel emotions, nature and people. But as an adult she felt she had to almost bury this and kept on with life as many other people do. Until 7 years ago she just felt exhausted and asked herself the question ‘what is living like’?
 What Ana does is help people get their energy aligned, so they can be healthier, happier and know that they are loved.
 Ana has always loved animals, she even considered being a veterinarian. As an adult she really, really loves cats and their energy!
 Translating is what Ana originally trained in but teaching is the career that Ana ended up doing. She wouldn’t describe it as her ‘calling’ it just kind of happened after working in a church nursery, she always liked children.
 Respecting all children regardless of their background, values and views is of upmost importance to Ana. She is authoritative in the classroom but she also ensures the children know that they are cared for an are respected.
 Ana believes that the educational system doesn’t accommodate all children. If a child wants to sit on the floor and it means they will work, why not let them work sitting on the floor?
 After Ana asked herself the question of what is it like to live she had some difficult decisions to make. She got divorced, she quit her job and completely turned her life upside down. It was necessary in order for her new life to be born.
 Ana is non-judgemental, she understands that she does not know peoples journeys and she can’t pretend to understand, it would be arrogant of her. She ‘understands that she does not understand’!
  BEST MOMENTS 
 “I don’t like to settle for one thing…let’s embrace all my talents”
 “It’s tricky for me to put it into words”
 “This is not what my soul is seeking, I better learn to listen”
 “I do occasionally hug a tree!”
 “I was surviving, life was a battlefield”

      <title>E143: Listening for the Magic - Interview with Jacqui Taaffe</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/jacqui-taaffe</link>
      <description>In this episode, Pete speaks to Jacqui Taaffe, a life and mindset coach.
 Jacqui sits down with people and has deep, meaningful conversations, this is where the magic occurs. Her clients come to her sessions with everything they need, it’s just Jacqui’s job to awaken what they need and enlighten them.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  When Jacqui is talking with her clients she can always sense the ‘lightbulb moment’ in them. The moment when they realise they have the ability to start on a new incredible journey where they look at everything in a completely different way. Jacqui sees herself as the facilitator in these interactions and to create a space for this moment to happen.
 Jacqui knows that she is now doing what she is destined to do, coach people. She listens and people trust her and she is making a big impact on people and the world.
 Fire in the belly to Jacqui is to have real, honest, raw and authentic conversations. It’s within these conversations, and people feeling that freedom, that causes us to connect with others as well as creating joy and energy for ourselves.
 You are not your thoughts. Jacqui says you can choose your path, you are only what you believe. Make quality choices and always choose yourself.
 Regrets are a choice. So, Jacqui believes if she has regrets about anything it means it’s her minds way telling her to do something.
 Jacqui thinks we are all the same at our core. She loves talking to others and reflecting, it often gives her a new perspective that she hasn’t thought of before. Because she has let go of the concept of ‘being right’ she can be open minded to almost anything.
 You are not alone. Reach out if you are struggling, those around you will want to help and listen.
   
 BEST MOMENTS 
 “They’ve entered the room with everything they need but what they leave with is this incredible awareness”
 “You cannot put a price on that work”
 “You’re you, who am I to change that”
 “I love talking, I love reflecting”

      <title>E142: Follow Your Passion and STAY CURIOUS! - Interview with 11 yo Critts Shoe Founder, Carter Waugh</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/carter-waugh-11yo-critts-shoe-founder</link>
      <description>In this episode, Pete speaks to Carter Waugh, 11 year old founder of the Flip Critts! A family-run shoe company that specialises in fully recyclable, adventure-proof shoes.
 Today Carter and Pete talk about the concept and creation of Flip Critts and Carter’s mission to create a shoe that spread happiness, safety and security for all critters.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  The shoes mould to your feet and fit to be your ‘personal shoe’. They are also really easy to clean, have incredible grip, prevent blisters and are fully recyclable.
 Carter was just 8 when he created the company. The idea came to him when he was trying to play and climb on holiday but every shoe he wore gave him different problems. So, he wanted to come up with a solution for himself and others too.
 Carter created the word ‘adventurability’. This means when you can jump, climb and just be a kid. He has trademarked this!
 Carter first launched the shoe on Kickstarter to fund it to be made. He initially had it costed in the USA but it was very expensive, he was able to bring the cost down by it being manufactured in China.
 Carter says you should always write down your ideas. Carter has a journal that he writes all his ideas in. This is the only way to make it happen. It helps you figure out your vision. 
 Carter has learnt that intellectual property is very important. If you can’t protect your ideas then people will take them and steal them from you.
 Fire in the belly for Carter is to love what you do and his passions.
 For every pair of Critts shoes that is bought, $2 goes back to Carter’s elementary school to help them survive through the Covid pandemic.
 Carter has and continues to inspire parents to listen to their children more. Many adults don’t listen to children but they often have something important to say. If Carter’s Dad hadn’t listened to him then Flip Critts would have never been born!
 Carter wants to be a learning opportunity for others and continue to inspire everyone so he is able to give back across the world and be happy.
  BEST MOMENTS 
 “I want it to look good and feel good”
 “I wanted to spread happiness, safety and security to all critters”
 “I just think that’s crazy”
 “You can do it at any age, 7 to 54, you can make a shoe, I just want to inspire people to make their own product and inspire the world”
  “It was hard and fun”
 “Hard work pays off a lot”
 “There’s a good side and a good side!”

 ABOUT THE GUEST
 Carter Waugh
 Carter created Flip Critts when he was 8 years old because his flip flops would break and not protect his feet, whilst his foam clogs were making his feet sweat and giving him blisters. That’s when he had an idea: What if he made a Flip Critt, combining a Flip Flop and a Clog?

      <title>E141: Building Relationships, Lives, and for Tomorrow - Interview with Tony Thomas</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/tony-thomas</link>
      <description>In this episode, Pete speaks to Tony Thomas a chartered financial planner from Wales with over 30 years experience. They talk about investments, coaching and more in this beneficial and informative episode.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  People are more open talking about money than generations previously.
 Tony has such passion and enjoyment for helping people achieve what they want to achieve. There is nothing better for him than showing people how they can achieve the lifestyle and reality they want.
 The pandemic will have had an impact on the age that people want to retire. Working both ways, some will have enjoyed the additional free time they have had for hobbies so will want to retire early, whereas other haven’t enjoyed being at home so much so want to work longer!
 What retirement means is different to what it did in the past. Retirement nowadays usually means stepping back/down from a professional career but still doing ‘something’ whether that is part time paid work or volunteering.
 The best way to get a good retirement is to plan and put steps in place to achieve what it is you want to happen.
 Tony originally trained as an engineer and this was the start of his career. Unfortunately the company he worked for didn’t do so well and he was made redundant. It was this that made him change directions and start working in the financial sector.
 In order to help people as a financial adviser, Tony says that you need to truly understand what it is people want to achieve as their end goal. It’s not the same for everyone and sometimes includes some hard truths.
 Tony’s Fire in the Belly is helping other become financially secure and helping them build a better life and future.
  BEST MOMENTS 
 “People are concerned about their jobs, about their futures”
 “They need to find something else to stimulate their minds”
 “The real skill of a financial adviser is to build that relationship with the client, get to understand them, know what they are trying to achieve and help them get there”
 “We don’t know when tomorrow is going to come, but you need to be prepared”
 “When I am helping others, I am helping myself as well”

      <title>E140: We Need to Talk - Interview with Sharon Bridges</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/sharon-bridges</link>
      <description>In this episode, Pete speaks to Sharon Bridges, a mother, Doula and trained hypnotherapist.
 Sharon opens up about her daughters eating disorder and death, mental health, her experiences as a Doula and so much more. A heart breaking, emotional but inspiring episode.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  Sharon worked in the medical side of pregnancy and birth but found it wasn’t quite the right fit. She then learnt about Doula’s and it sounded like exactly what she wanted to do.
 A doula is a professional birth partner. They are there to emotionally support the mother as much as possible before, during and after birth.
 Birth is the most amazing process a woman can go through but it can also be very traumatic.
 Sharon was very frightened for her first birth. She feels that’s because of her expectation of birth made her scared, especially about pain. But it was actually a really good birth experience for Sharon and she almost thought it was a dream. It was not what she expected at all.
 When a baby is born so many people forget about the mother. She needs support and help but doesn’t always get it. The mental health of the mother is so important.
 Sharon lost her daughter ten years ago. No parent ever expects to lose a child. Sharon believes that her daughters health wasn’t taken seriously and this is why she died.
 After her daughter’s death Sharon spoke to the media to share her daughter Sophie’s story and to advocate for others.
 Sharon tries to make her life as natural as possible. She has the condition fibromyalgia and manages this mostly with diet and exercise.
 Sharon believes that we are all just one trauma away from addiction.
 As a society we don’t view and treat mental health problems sufficiently enough. There is a pandemic of suicide at the moment. We need to change so many things and rid the stigma around mental health problems. Talking about it more, including conversations with children, would be a helpful start.
 A day of rest is not a wasted day. You are looking after your mental health. We are all human and we need to recognise what helps us and look after all aspects of ourselves.
 Everything that happens in life is for a reason and it puts you exactly where you need to be. Sharon believes in synchronicity and that we are all connected in this small world.
  BEST MOMENTS 
 “My passion in life is to help people experience better mental health”
 “When I had my first baby I was so frightened”
 “When a baby is born, a mother is born”
 “There is nothing in this life that is more important than the bond between a mother and her baby”
 “Incidents in life can make you bitter or they can make you better…I have to use this experience to do something positive or it will all be for nothing”

      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/lorna-doorley</link>
      <description>In this episode, Pete speaks to Lorna Doorley a holistic reflexologist, mother, stand-up comedian, business owner and world record holder!
 Lorna reclaimed her life from co-dependency and addiction to become a passionate person with a strong urge, will and desire to help others, especially women. Listen in today to hear of her journey to a brighter life and how she helps others do the same.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  We don’t have to rely on changing ourselves on the outside through things like diet or using others to self-regulate. There is another way to live.
 Lorna believes in a holistic approach to her reflexology and massage, this means she looks at the whole person and how everything ties in together, it’s one big picture.
 Fire in the belly to Lorna is being authentic. She says there is only one version of her now which wasn’t always the case. She follows spiritual goals and values to live as authentically and as well as she can.
 Lorna has always had a drive to show and help women feel what she felt. That they could live a different way. But she was unsure on how to carry that message to them. But by retraining in reflexology and massage with a holistic approach she is teaching women how to truly take care of themselves. Women are the caregivers in society, we aren’t always good at looking after number one.
 Having boundaries and feeling grounded are so important for a balanced and happy life. Lorna makes a conscious effort to ground herself each morning and that helps her keep her boundaries. So she then doesn’t take on other people’s problems and doesn’t fall into her old role of being ‘the fixer’.
 Lorna did well and enjoyed most of school. She then got a degree in social work and became a social worker at 21. She did this for quite a few years until she had her eldest daughter and then became a stay at home mother.
 She found the years of being a stay at home mother quite difficult, it was a hard period in her life. After having all five of her children she eventually started to go on her spiritual journey, she gave up alcohol, became free from many other things and began to find out who she truly was.
 Lorna changed her mindset around her body image completely. She believes in body positivity and no longer subscribes to diet culture and the way society dictates what a ‘good’ body is. Her heart breaks for women who still torture themselves every day because of the BS women are brainwashed with about their image since childhood.
  BEST MOMENTS 
 “It’s not just a physical experience, it can be emotional for people”
 “It’s a very accessible way to treat people holistically”
 “Stress is an undercurrent and a factor in so many chronic illnesses”
 “There’s always a way to bring change”
 “I ran from things I wasn’t able to cope with”
 “You’ve got to be uncomfortable and unsatisfied for someone to sell you a product”
 “It was incredible and I have never looked in the mirror since and said ‘Oh I don’t like this part or that part’. My body is amazing, it gets me up every morning and does everything”

      <title>E138: Mind, Body and Spirit - Interview with Glenn Lundy</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/glenn-lundy</link>
      <description>In this episode, Pete speaks to Glenn Lundy, husband, father, automotive professional and host to #riseandgrind! They talk about impact, energy, perspective, childhood and much, much more. Listen in to today to absorb Glenn’s energy and be inspired.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  Fire in the belly to Glenn is the ‘fuel’. What is that burning, desire inside you that fuels your decisions? Glenn believes we are three dimensional beings; mind, body and spirit. And all three of these things have an equal part to play and we have to serve all three areas to achieve greatness.
 Glenn asks the question, what kind of impact are you going to have on others in life? He believes that is why we are here, what we are alive to do. Glenn believes that impact is the meaning of life. He tries to bring people together in everything he creates.
 Glenn is not a passive person. He is always ‘chasing things down’. He doesn’t sit still waiting for things to happen.
 Glenn believes that energy never disappears. All it does is change and come back in different forms. That’s why it’s so important to put the right energy out there and to give it to others.
 Glenn’s unique upbringing is what has lead him to view things easily through others eyes and understand differing perspectives.
 A series of events including divorce, homelessness and a suicide attempt lead Glenn on his path of spirituality and his voyage of discovery the past ten years.
 Glenn gives his children a lot of freedoms and luxuries. Glen partly attributes that to the difficult times he had with his Dad as a younger child. He was very controlling and strict. He is certain to plant a lot of seeds in their minds, to try, create and dream. He wants them to choose their own path in life.
 Bringing people together, creating impact and being kind are some of Glenn’s core values. He says it’s important to recognise your values as once you know them it makes it so much easier to be who you are. It is freeing, it helps you know when to say yes and when to say no.
 Glenn is an eternal student. He can read, listen, watch, go to conferences, anything, and he will immerse himself and learn.
 On the outside, people’s lives can seem good. But often it’s a ‘2D lifestyle’. It isn’t real or authentic. This leads to misalignment and unhappiness in the long run.
   
 BEST MOMENTS 
 “There’s something in my spirit that tells me we can be better”
 “Whether you’re the lion or the gazelle, you better wake up running!”
 “When you don’t look good, you don’t feel good!”
  “I associate money with freedom”
 “You have the ability to create whatever you want in life”
 “If I’m not learning something then it’s a detriment to the empire I’m trying to build”
 "What you put out, is what you get back"

      <title>E137: A Pause is a Purpose - Interview with  Clinical Psychologist Dr. Malie Coyne</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/dr-malie-coyne-clinical-psychologist</link>
      <description>Today Pete speaks to Dr. Malie Coyne, a clinical psychologist living in Galway and working with children, teenagers and parents. She is also a mother, lecturer and author. Malie is very passionate about promoting wellbeing and increasing awareness of mental health issues, which she achieves through her advocacy work, public speaking and print, radio and TV contributions.
 Listen in today for an insight into child psychology, anxiety, passion and much more.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  Malie always said if she was going to write a book it would be focused around children and parents as that’s where her interest has always lied. Malie also suffered with anxiety as a child and so wanted to help those children and parents dealing with this.
 Malie believes in compassion based therapy, which is an eastern blend of therapies. She used this approach in her book ‘Love In, Love Out’ which was released in July.
 The most important thing about the book for Malie, is the amount of people it helps, this was always her purpose.
 Anxiety can have both a genetic component as well as environmental factors. 15% of children are born with a more anxious temperament but life events and parenting can have a large impact on child anxiety.
 It’s really important that we assess how we react to our children, a lot of these responses are automatic and we don’t even think about doing them.
 Fire in the belly for Malie means passion. Her fire comes out a lot when she is teaching and helping others. She also thinks what is the point of doing anything if you don’t have that fire in the belly for it!
 Humans have the ability to see into the future and look at the past. Which inflates our feelings of threat. Being anxious is about feeling threatened.
 Finding the balance between connections with other people, what you do each day and your drive can be very healing. You can still be driven whilst being kind to yourself and others.
 90% of brain development happens before a child is three. Malie believes that we need to focus more on infant mental health for this exact reason.
 People do not learn when they are threatened. Malie tries to educate and teach others in a compassionate way. She also tries to share parts of herself so other people see her as the human she is.
 Malie is continuously learning and does so in many ways. Through courses, through clients, reading, podcasts, and even through her family and children.
 Passion can sometimes lead to stress for Malie because she says yes to a lot of ‘maybes’ when following it. It can lead to feeling of overwhelm for her.
 Malie believes that pushing is not the only way to get what you want. Often there can be a spiritual side to getting to where you want to be. It’s important to not tie all of your self worth to the negative things that sometimes happen. The universe has a plan and there is a reason things happen.
  BEST MOMENTS 
 “To every child and grown-up child who feels anxious out there, this one’s for you. I’ve been there, it’s really hard and I’m holding your hand. I hope this book gives you a voice and gives you justice”
 “There weren’t many books on how a parent feels in response to their child’s anxiety and how they might address that and look at that first before they respond”
 “My passion has somehow exuded from me and somehow been contagious to them”
 “There is a moment of awareness before you react with your kids”
 “It’s no surprise I began a helper as I felt it was my job, as I got older I learnt you don’t have to bring stuff home with ya”
 “Eventually the stack has to come down”
 “It was us against the world”

      <title>E136: Why Aren't We Taught This? - Interview with Lisa McFarland</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/lisa-mcfarland</link>
      <description>Today Pete speaks to Lisa McFarland, a life coach, wife and mother.
 When training to be a coach, Lisa learnt so much about herself, things like limiting beliefs, how to manage fear and anxiety, how to deal with stress and how it effects our bodies in unhealthy ways. This made her realise that we all need to have this knowledge, to know and understand these things. Why are we not taught them? This was the start of her journey into coaching. Listen in today to hear all about relationships, love, vulnerability and much more.
  
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  Lisa was working in HR when it was suggested to her to do a life coaching course. She felt unsure but decided to give it a go and it changed her mindset, and her life, completely.
 Looking back, Lisa realised she was always interested in shows that helped people, that delved into their lives and psyche. She has also been an avid reader of self-help books and has always been fascinated by human nature. So, it now made sense why her and life coaching clicked.
 Fire in the belly to Lisa is ‘lighting up the passion that has always been inside’. You might not even realise what that is until later in life.
 We don’t get any education on relationships. It’s something we all have to do and is intertwined in all aspects of our lives but there is no education on it. There is also hardly anywhere to go for help without shame. Lisa’s passion for changing this is her fire in the belly.
 We argue and communicate the way we have seen and experienced it. We don’t educate ourselves in any other way. This is how we can get into cycles of the same behaviour and don’t ever try and improve.
 We often serve others in the way we like to be served. Issues can arise in romantic relationships when we don’t recognise that our partner has a different love language to us. Just finding out each other’s love language and then putting in the effort to use this can make a measurable difference to the health of our relationship.
 Relationships can be like a balloon and a string. If the balloon goes too wild it’s too much for the string. If the string holds too tight it deflates the balloon. It’s all about balance.
 People pleasing is when you do something to get the reward. So many of us people please, if we could stop we would become so much more authentic in ourselves.
 The more vulnerable we can be with our partners and with our children, the more freedom we give them to be vulnerable too.
  BEST MOMENTS 
 “At the time, I didn’t know I had limiting beliefs about educating myself”
 “Everyone needs a friend, everyone needs an ear to listen to them”
 “To be seen is one of the most beautiful things…You feel seen, and it lights up something inside you”
 “We’ve all heard people say things to their partners that they would never say to their friends”
 “Why do they not teach us about this stuff!”
 “We call these automatic negative thoughts Shirley…You can name your automatic negative thoughts so we recognise our automatic negative thought…we just have to see them as what they are, they’re just a thought”

This made her realise that we all need to have this knowledge, to know and understand these things. Why are we not taught them? This was the start of her journey into coaching. Listen in today to hear all about relationships, love, vulnerability and much more.</p> <p><em> </em></p> <p><strong>KEY TAKEAWAYS</strong></p> <ul> <li>Lisa was working in HR when it was suggested to her to do a life coaching course. She felt unsure but decided to give it a go and it changed her mindset, and her life, completely.</li> <li>Looking back, Lisa realised she was always interested in shows that helped people, that delved into their lives and psyche. She has also been an avid reader of self-help books and has always been fascinated by human nature. So, it now made sense why her and life coaching clicked.</li> <li>Fire in the belly to Lisa is ‘lighting up the passion that has always been inside’. You might not even realise what that is until later in life.</li> <li>We don’t get any education on relationships. It’s something we all have to do and is intertwined in all aspects of our lives but there is no education on it. There is also hardly anywhere to go for help without shame. Lisa’s passion for changing this is her fire in the belly.</li> <li>We argue and communicate the way we have seen and experienced it. We don’t educate ourselves in any other way. This is how we can get into cycles of the same behaviour and don’t ever try and improve.</li> <li>We often serve others in the way we like to be served. Issues can arise in romantic relationships when we don’t recognise that our partner has a different love language to us. Just finding out each other’s love language and then putting in the effort to use this can make a measurable difference to the health of our relationship.</li> <li>Relationships can be like a balloon and a string. If the balloon goes too wild it’s too much for the string. If the string holds too tight it deflates the balloon. It’s all about balance.</li> <li>People pleasing is when you do something to get the reward. So many of us people please, if we could stop we would become so much more authentic in ourselves.</li> <li>The more vulnerable we can be with our partners and with our children, the more freedom we give them to be vulnerable too.</li> </ul> <p><strong>BEST MOMENTS </strong></p> <p><em>“At the time, I didn’t know I had limiting beliefs about educating myself”</em></p> <p><em>“Everyone needs a friend, everyone needs an ear to listen to them”</em></p> <p><em>“To be seen is one of the most beautiful things…You feel seen, and it lights up something inside you”</em></p> <p><em>“We’ve all heard people say things to their partners that they would never say to their friends”</em></p> <p><em>“Why do they not teach us about this stuff!”</em></p> <p><em>“We call these automatic negative thoughts Shirley…You can name your automatic negative thoughts so we recognise our automatic negative thought…we just have to see them as what they are, they’re just a thought”</em></p> <p><strong>VALUABLE RESOURCES</strong></p> <p>Subscribe to Fire In The Belly Podcast on Apple Podcasts (<a href="https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/fire-in-the-belly/id1499375061)">https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/fire-in-the-belly/id1499375061)</a></p> <p><a href="http://www.justathought.uk/">www.justathought.uk</a></p> <p><strong>ABOUT THE GUEST</strong></p> <p><strong>Lisa McFarland</strong></p> <p>Founder of Relationship Coaching NI and a wife and mother to three almost grownup children.

      <title>E135: Everything Is A Miracle - Interview with Steven McGeown AKA Stevey J</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/steven-mcgeown-aka-stevey-j</link>
      <description>Today Pete speaks to Steven McGeown, aka ‘Stevey J’, a mentor, entrepreneur and change-maker. His true passion in life is to help individuals change their life in all ways to give lasting and authentic fulfilment.
 Today they talk about business, charity, God and more!
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  Fire in the belly to Stevey J is the ‘raising phoeneix rising out of the ashes’. Fire in the belly is his passion, passion is something he lives his life by.
 Stevey J believes there is a nurturing essence of love around us, it was him discovering this and God that lead to some big changes and shifts in his life. He then used this passion and transformation to help others.
 None of the things that Stevey J cherishes in life came logically or normally. He is always open to new ideas and experiences. It was this thinking that lead him to do his Epic journey of 100 Marathons in 100 consecutive days. This was the start of his passion for running.
 The charity work that Stevey J is involved in has given him a renewed passion and outlook on life.
 Sometimes it can feel like you are stuck in life or are struggling with something complex. Stevey J believes this is where prayer comes in. He asks for an answer and he gets it. We just have to allow ourselves to be shown the way and be given to.
 To what extent are you living? If you’re expressing 80% what about the other 20%? A question we all need to ask ourselves and discover how we can live to our full potential.
 People are more trapped then they have ever been. A large contribution is the use of mobile phones and social media, always showing us a world that doesn’t actually exist.
   
 BEST MOMENTS 
 “I captured a vision, of a better future”
 “You can make a difference with something very little”
 “What do we really do by ourselves?”
 “There’s nothing that isn’t a miracle…life is magic”
 “If something is right and meant to be done then it’s going to feel right”

      <title>E134: Kez Wickham</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/kez-wickham</link>
      <description>Today Pete speaks to Kez Wickham St George, an author, mentor and artist.
 Kez is the driver of her own creativity and her passion is to inspire and nurture others to tell their stories. She has travelled extensively including the width and breath of Australia, collecting stories and experiences.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  On the road in Australia Kez has met lots of young families raising their children on the road. She believes it’s a truly unique and fun way of life for children. The world is different now, there are many people choosing to lead different lifestyles to the traditional way of living.
 Kez is a bit of a people watcher and listener. She is constantly taking mental notes from the people she sees and speaks to.
 Kez has been writing since she was a child and has had 10 books published over the past 12 years.
 An artist for many years, Kez started up a programme called Step Back, teaching people how to look after themselves, take that step back and do some art!
 The teaching of self-respect is so important. If you don’t respect yourself how can you respect others. Gaining respect for yourself is transformative to your entire life and it can be so easy to self-practice.
  Fire in the belly for Kez means passion, about what you do, who you connect with and the ‘whys’ of your life.
 Kez believes in fate. If it’s not meant to be it won’t happen. If you try and push the universe it pushes back, have belief in yourself, set goals in life and things will happen for you.
   
 BEST MOMENTS 
 “Who made the rule that having a mortgage makes you happy”
  
 “They’re gorgeous people and they all have big hearts and they’re all got big stories”
  
 “The wiser you get, the less you say…when you’re younger you have an opinion about everything”
 “I have a fabulous life Pete”

      <title>E133: Find That Happy Place - Interview with Ollie Greene</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/ollie-greene</link>
      <description>Today Pete speaks to Ollie Greene, multiple business owner with passion for nutrition, health and fitness. A varied episode with unique conversation between Pete and Ollie. They talk about health, depression and even seaweed as well as many other topics.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  Fire in the belly to Ollie, is just life. Living and loving what he does every day is what gives him his fire.
 Ollie hasn’t always been as healthy as he is now. He used to drink and smoke quite a lot but he got to a stage where he decided to stop. He changed his life day by day.
 Happiness is out there for everyone. It’s different for every single one of us, you just have to look for it.
 We often look for a certain reason or cause for depression but sometimes it can be hereditary, a simple imbalance in the brain or even be down to lack of direction.
 Ollie finds that fitness and nutrition give him a purpose and an outlet and this is why they helped him with his own depression. He believes that depression is always there but it’s finding a way of managing it.
 Sometimes difficult things happen, but they have to so that the good things can happen after.
 Growing vegetables and cooking is a really important part of Ollie’s life. He gets so much out of the work he puts into both and has passed this onto his daughter.
  BEST MOMENTS 
 “You just need to find that place where you’re happy…there’s somewhere out there for everyone you just have to go look for it”
 “I believe it’s always there but it’s finding a way of managing it for you”
 “Judging people can be an injustice to everyone, including yourself”
 “If you don’t take care of the weeds they take over”

      <title>E132: Together We Are Better - Interview with Daniel Levin</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/rory-scanlon</link>
      <description>Today Pete speaks to Daniel Levin, ‘a rare blend of mystic and business man whose ability to see the world differently has drawn people, companies and governments to invite him to work with them on innovation’. He shows people how to see the world differently.
 Listen in for inspiring and heart-warming stories and rejuvenate your perspective on life today.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  Daniel has experienced a different kind of life to many. He says this has allowed him to view and take part in the world differently to many other people.
 You have no idea what the power of your listening can do. You might never see the effects of it. But just because you don’t see or hear the impact of it that doesn’t mean it doesn’t have an immeasurable impact on those you listen to. It changes people.
 You have every right to be heard by others. Figure out why it is important for you to be heard. It’s not selfish to expect to be listened to.
 Fire in the belly to Daniel is something that is burning in the core of your soul and if we don’t listen to it than that fire will destroy us. The fire in the belly is the ‘wake-up call’.
 Hearing on its own without an action is not connection.
 When we realise that there is more than just the ‘self’, that the world is bigger than just ourselves, we can then recognise that we have a place in it and start to discover what that place is.
   
 BEST MOMENTS 
 “People have been wondering where I’m coming from my whole life”
 “You may never get the direct feedback of what your listening has done but I promise you this; it will change people, it will help people”
 If you can’t understand the way they speak don’t give up there, look for a way you can understand”
 “I can melt this wall with my kindness”

 Ryan was training to be a physiotherapist when he Dad became ill. Ryan then ran his Dad’s company for a couple of years and discovered how much he loved doing so. He also realised how much he loved being around and working with people.
 Fire in the belly to Ryan is that ‘internal motivation’. Recognising what it is you want to achieve and going for it.
 Your fire in the belly gives you an energy source, for both your bad days as well as the good ones.
 When we think of creativity we envisage painting, drawing or creating music, but solving complex problems is also creativity. You just need to have the curiosity to ask the right questions first.
 Challenging beliefs and showing different perspectives makes for incredible deep conversation and this is why Ryan loves people.
 Ryan is a sincere and authentic person. He knows who he is and what you see is what you get.
 There is such a thing as too much content. It can be overwhelming, this is a common mistake that creators of membership sites often make.
 Too many people put too much emphasis on whether people like them or not. Don’t let it bother you as it has no real impact on your life unless you let it.
  BEST MOMENTS 
 “I’m usually singing or dancing around the house”
 “I always describe my life as a series of unfortunate events that lead to a series of very fortunate ones” 
 “I make no apologies for the person I am”
 “By projecting ‘this is who I am’ and sharing those values, people will raise their hand and engage with you”

      <title>E130: Overcome Overwhelm - Interview with Ben Ivey</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/ben-ivey</link>
      <description>Today Pete speaks to Ben Ivey, a coach and speaker who works with ‘overwhelmed’ entrepreneurs to live a great lifestyle and reach business success. They talk about entrepreneurship, mindset, vulnerability and more.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  Overwhelm is different for everybody. It comes in a variety of different forms. For a lot of us it is down to technology and always being ‘switched on’. It’s easy for business owners to become overwhelmed when they are focusing on all the different areas of the business and not taking care of their own needs.
 For Ben, Fire in the Belly is what drives you when you get out of bed in the morning.
 Ben as a coach, focuses on what gives people long term benefit that is sustainable.
 As well as being inspiring on stage Ben always wanted to be humorous when speaking. It’s something he hasn’t completely mastered but already he is feeling the benefit of working it into his speaking.
 Ben had a very fortunate childhood but found it hard to connect with people as a young child. But when he became a teenager he felt he came into his own, particularly after his parents divorced and he took more ‘ownership’ of himself.
 Ben started entrepreneurship at an early age, he ran his first ‘business’ in school, selling confectionary from his locker!
 Part of Ben’s strength came from having to be strong for his family after the suicide of his father when he was in his early twenties.
 The best coaches in the world deliver what people want but they also give people what they really need.
  BEST MOMENTS 
 “I’m not perfect, no one is, but the cool thing is I have a lot of tools that help keep me on track and stop me going into downwards spirals that I definitely did previously”
 “Why is it you do what you do, what are you passionate about? And what gets you through the tough times?”
 “I became a rock and emotionally hardened to that”
 “There are a lot of people in my life that have helped inspire me and have helped me become the man I am today”

      <title>E129: Creativity and Innovation Are One Process - Interview with Michael Lee</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/michael-lee</link>
      <description>Today Pete speaks to Michael Lee, a certified ‘master of creativity and innovation coaching’!  Michael has been some form of trainer for most of his life, beginning in TV and film. Nowadays he coaches many clients in creativity, transformation, education and more. Listen in today to learn how the ability to be creative impacts all areas of our lives and how mindset can change the amount of joy and pleasure you feel daily.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  Creativity is the ability to think differently from yourself.
 Over time as we become adults we put ‘blocks’ in our way to creative thinking. We have to retrain and relearn things to remove the barriers and be truly creative.
 As humans we have spent almost all of our lives living in a similar way. Suddenly technology has really sped up our development and the inability to adapt is one of our biggest problems. If an individual can learn to pivot and be adaptable it will have an immeasurable impact on their life.
 People think innovation is ‘technology and science’ and that creativity is ‘art’. But this is a myth, they are both intrinsically linked. Creativity is coming up with the idea and innovation is implementing it. You can’t have one without the other.
 The real reward for innovation is for people who innovate and are successful. Those who innovate and fail often end up at the receiving end of negativity. This doesn’t inspire or incentivise people in society to innovate or be creative as we often have to fail multiple times before doing something successful.
 What we know about ourselves is the single most important knowledge we have. It is also the most difficult to shift.
 If what you do is in alignment with your morals and goals then you do not feel like you ‘working’. You are doing what puts fire in your belly and it is the ideal state of life.
 Being fully present in whatever you are doing, even if it is something you don’t want to do, that will make life more joyful.
  BEST MOMENTS 
 “All of this stuff I have learnt along the way has made me very passionate about helping people free their own minds”
 “If you’re not able to ‘shift’ then that’s not really being creative”
 “Society doesn’t give us an incentive to innovate and be creative”

      <itunes:summary>Today Pete speaks to Michael Lee, a certified ‘master of creativity and innovation coaching’!  Michael has been some form of trainer for most of his life, beginning in TV and film. Nowadays he coaches many clients in creativity, transformation, education and more. Listen in today to learn how the ability to be creative impacts all areas of our lives and how mindset can change the amount of joy and pleasure you feel daily.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  Creativity is the ability to think differently from yourself.
 Over time as we become adults we put ‘blocks’ in our way to creative thinking. We have to retrain and relearn things to remove the barriers and be truly creative.
 As humans we have spent almost all of our lives living in a similar way. Suddenly technology has really sped up our development and the inability to adapt is one of our biggest problems. If an individual can learn to pivot and be adaptable it will have an immeasurable impact on their life.
 People think innovation is ‘technology and science’ and that creativity is ‘art’. But this is a myth, they are both intrinsically linked. Creativity is coming up with the idea and innovation is implementing it. You can’t have one without the other.
 The real reward for innovation is for people who innovate and are successful. Those who innovate and fail often end up at the receiving end of negativity. This doesn’t inspire or incentivise people in society to innovate or be creative as we often have to fail multiple times before doing something successful.
 What we know about ourselves is the single most important knowledge we have. It is also the most difficult to shift.
 If what you do is in alignment with your morals and goals then you do not feel like you ‘working’. You are doing what puts fire in your belly and it is the ideal state of life.
 Being fully present in whatever you are doing, even if it is something you don’t want to do, that will make life more joyful.
  BEST MOMENTS 
 “All of this stuff I have learnt along the way has made me very passionate about helping people free their own minds”
 “If you’re not able to ‘shift’ then that’s not really being creative”
 “Society doesn’t give us an incentive to innovate and be creative”

      <title>E128: What Makes Your Heart Sing -  Interview with Doreen Ritchie</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/doreen-ritchie</link>
      <description>Today Pete speaks to Doreen Ritchie, a life and executive coach born and living in Belfast. A serious accident changed how Doreen viewed her life and started her off on a road of self-discovery. Pete and Doreen talk about why this was as well as coaching, change, mindset and more.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  Doreen often helps people who are at a crossroads in their life. People who may be under stress or have just undergone major life events or changes. She helps them process these things and helps cultivate next steps for them to succeed. Doreen also creates workshops for businesses around stress, often as part of wider events around wellness.
 Change is often the answer to many problems. Doreen helps people change their lives.
 Individuals often think they are going to a coach to solve one or two problems. But usually these problems are a symptom of something bigger. A side effect of fixing some areas of your life is a transformation of your life entirely.
  We are on autopilot for a lot of a life. And unless we are conscious we are doing something then we can’t change it.
 Live your life, this is not a dress rehearsal. All we have is the now and the present.
 Doreen suffered in a bad car accident which changed her life direction forever. She realised she hadn’t been ‘living’ her life for the past ten years, she had just been existing. It began her journey of self-realisation and discovery.
 Doreen’s background is in business but after leaving her job after the accident and not knowing what to do she assessed and reflected on her strengths. She recognised she was great with people and problem solving. This lead her to becoming a life coach.
   
 BEST MOMENTS 
 “I’m not doing the thing for them I’m just guiding them to where they need to be in order to solve this problem and move forward”
 “Always, always, always the answer is change”
 “Why are you telling yourself the story you aren’t worthy of love?”
 “Most of it goes back to your childhood because that’s where we’re programmed”
 “I just want to connect with people”

      <title>E127: Flowing Through Life Differently -  Interview with Alexandra Pinteric</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/aleksandra-pinteric</link>
      <description>Today Pete speaks to Alexandra Pinteric a speaker, motivator and author. Alex writes and publishes inspiring books for kids and their parents about personal growth and the changes we experience throughout life, encouraging them to become the positive change we need in the world.
 They talk about the ego, self-development, philosophy and more!
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  Alex attached a character to her ego. The badger. Everyone has a ‘badger’. We all have these voices of doubt. The ‘badger’ is telling you negative things and will even turn positive things into a negative!
 When Alex is teaching her clients about ego she always takes into count of the ego and how many layers are involved in personal development.
 Alex says energy is key to happiness in life. Without energy, we suffer from fear and depression. This knowledge is how Alex combated self-hate and depression in herself.
 Our physical bodies are how we express and feel everything in the world. If we are in pain then that means we are not doing something right.
 Alex’s journey of self-development was a struggle but she says it is almost effortless living a more authentic life. Something we should all strive for.
 There is beauty in everything but you have to re-programme yourself to see it in the world surrounding you. It takes work and it takes time.
 Alex had a difficult upbringing but felt like she was a fighter. She knew she had to fight for herself and others. She has always been an advocate, even since childhood. 
  BEST MOMENTS 
 “The ego is the structure of thoughts and emotions”
 “You are stronger, you are consciousness, you are ok, you are beautiful you are that part that can do anything”
 “I just love being me!”

His mission is to help others find their potential and become the mightiest version of themselves. Pete openly talks about losing both of his parents, suffering periods of depression, business downturn and burn-out, and ultimately his years spent not stoking ‘Fire In the Belly’. In 2017, at 37 years of age that changed, and he is now on a journey of learning, growing, accepting, and inspiring others.
 Pete can connect with people and intuitively asks questions to reveal a person’s passion and discover how to live their mightiest life. The true power of ‘Fire In The Belly’ is the Q&amp;A’s - Questions and Actions!

Alex writes and publishes inspiring books for kids and their parents about personal growth and the changes we experience throughout life, encouraging them to become the positive change we need in the world.</p> <p>They talk about the ego, self-development, philosophy and more!</p> <p><strong>KEY TAKEAWAYS</strong></p> <ul> <li>Alex attached a character to her ego. The badger. Everyone has a ‘badger’. We all have these voices of doubt. The ‘badger’ is telling you negative things and will even turn positive things into a negative!</li> <li>When Alex is teaching her clients about ego she always takes into count of the ego and how many layers are involved in personal development.</li> <li>Alex says energy is key to happiness in life. Without energy, we suffer from fear and depression. This knowledge is how Alex combated self-hate and depression in herself.</li> <li>Our physical bodies are how we express and feel everything in the world. If we are in pain then that means we are not doing something right.</li> <li>Alex’s journey of self-development was a struggle but she says it is almost effortless living a more authentic life. Something we should all strive for.</li> <li>There is beauty in everything but you have to re-programme yourself to see it in the world surrounding you.

      <title>E126: Don’t Let Anyone Put Out Your Spark -  Interview with Breda McCague</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/breda-mccague</link>
      <description>Today Pete speaks to Breda McCague, an incredible motivator and empowering transformational specialist. She co-founded and co-chairs the Lean-In Ireland community which empowers women to help them achieve their mission. Alongside this and her more corporate roles, Breda also has three children and currently plays in a rock band!
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  Fire in the Belly to Breda is her drive and her passion. It can also be something that many don’t think a lot about until they lose it. Breda is someone who had fire in the belly when she was young, who then lost it in the middle of her life and has now regained it.
 People don’t realise that if you are parenting by default then you are probably parenting the way you were parented. Breda doesn’t think that is up to scratch for our children anymore. Our parents and their parents and even further back lived in a completely different world to kids today.
 Breda believes in conscious parenting. So, making conscious decisions on how to raise your children. Children are very intuitive and by teaching them things like how to deal with emotions, you are then helping them develop things that many of us had to learn in a much more difficult way as an adult.
 Learning to be competitive at a young age helped Breda tremendously in the corporate world as adult. By competing at a young age Breda got the feeling of being in competition, so being ambitious and wanting to do well become who she was as a person.
 Put emotions into your decisions and vision. If you decide on your goal and put emotion into it then what will happen is drive. You’ll be pulled through difficulties and keep going.
 Breda had to learn emotional intelligence as an adult. In particular, she had to unpick fear and how it influenced her life. She now recognises fear and negativity and knows that they do not make her feel good, or ambitious or productive. She then went on to learn about her subconscious and conscious mind and her conditioning. This lead her to be able to train herself on how to deal with life in a completely different way. She now has much more ‘control’ over her emotions.
 When you start to see fear in your life and in your decisions it’s scary how much of an influence it has on your life.
 Celebrating your successes, even your small wins, is as important as mastering your fears and your vision. You need all three for self-mastery; your vision, mastering your fears and celebrating your success.
   
 BEST MOMENTS 
 “I don’t want us to be parenting anymore the way we were parented”
 “Every child is born with a spark, they are put on this earth with special talent and skills and that’s what they’re supposed to be here to do, to contribute to the world”
 “Be the change you want to see”
 ‘We’re not in caves anymore and we’re not going to get eaten!”
 “Until you start to listen to what your inner voice is doing then you can’t change it”

      <title>E125: Creating Wealth Without Losing Your Soul -  Interview with Gabriel Uribe</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/gabriel-uribe</link>
      <description>Today Pete speaks to Gabriel Uribe, a coach and mentor from Mexico with a strong purpose to serve others in creating more wealth. They talk about coaching, business, connection and more!
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  After a difficult time in business in his 30s Gabriel started to look more into the idea of wealth and success without jeopardising his soul.
 Sometimes you need to rise-up and gain a change of mindset and start ‘creating’ to become wealthy and successful.
 Conscious creation is consciously thinking about what you are putting out to the world and by doing this you can be your true authentic self.
 Gabriel says that business owners have a huge impact, that they can be the change makers of the world. He says that peace, harmony and other goals are not able to be met by governments but by us as individuals and business owners and being conscious of the impact we make.
 Fire in the Belly for Gabriel is connection, peace and a ‘knowing’ that everything is going to alright in the end. Being able to connect to your inner-self and recognising what it is you are in the world to achieve.
 Many people think of philanthropy as being the ultimate course to being a ‘good human being’. But, there are so many things closer to home that you can support and help with that are selfless and can make you a ‘good human’.
  BEST MOMENTS 
 “The beautiful part is I started digging about the concept of wealth and the concept of success”
 “Sometimes you have to rise up to be bright”
 “I will let the creating go through me so I can be whatever I want to be”
 “Allow ourselves to be leaders of the change, of the real good change”
 “If you have a healthy ego you know that you’re valuable”

        <![CDATA[<p>Today Pete speaks to Gabriel Uribe, a coach and mentor from Mexico with a strong purpose to serve others in creating more wealth. They talk about coaching, business, connection and more!</p> <p><strong>KEY TAKEAWAYS</strong></p> <ul> <li>After a difficult time in business in his 30s Gabriel started to look more into the idea of wealth and success without jeopardising his soul.</li> <li>Sometimes you need to rise-up and gain a change of mindset and start ‘creating’ to become wealthy and successful.</li> <li>Conscious creation is consciously thinking about what you are putting out to the world and by doing this you can be your true authentic self.</li> <li>Gabriel says that business owners have a huge impact, that they can be the change makers of the world. He says that peace, harmony and other goals are not able to be met by governments but by us as individuals and business owners and being conscious of the impact we make.</li> <li>Fire in the Belly for Gabriel is connection, peace and a ‘knowing’ that everything is going to alright in the end. Being able to connect to your inner-self and recognising what it is you are in the world to achieve.</li> <li>Many people think of philanthropy as being the ultimate course to being a ‘good human being’. But, there are so many things closer to home that you can support and help with that are selfless and can make you a ‘good human’.</li> </ul> <p><strong>BEST MOMENTS </strong></p> <p><em>“The beautiful part is I started digging about the concept of wealth and the concept of success”</em></p> <p><em>“Sometimes you have to rise up to be bright”</em></p> <p><em>“I will let the creating go through me so I can be whatever I want to be”</em></p> <p><em>“Allow ourselves to be leaders of the change, of the real good change”</em></p> <p><em>“If you have a healthy ego you know that you’re valuable”</em></p> <p><strong>VALUABLE RESOURCES</strong></p> <p>Subscribe to Fire In The Belly Podcast on Apple Podcasts (<a href="https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/fire-in-the-belly/id1499375061)">https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/fire-in-the-belly/id1499375061)</a></p> <p><a href="https://www.coachgabrieluribe.com/">https://www.coachgabrieluribe.com/</a></p> <p><a href="https://www.amazon.com/When-All-Boats-Rise-Thriving-ebook/dp/B075LWN1M5">https://www.amazon.com/When-All-Boats-Rise-Thriving-ebook/dp/B075LWN1M5</a></p> <p><a href="https://open.spotify.com/show/64pfo3Ni7HZ3nhMTM3wMMD?si=pkKBf7OTTiifI7pPb5kmcQ">https://open.spotify.com/show/64pfo3Ni7HZ3nhMTM3wMMD?si=pkKBf7OTTiifI7pPb5kmcQ</a></p> <p><a href="https://worldclass.academy/courses/masterpiece2">https://worldclass.academy/courses/masterpiece2</a></p> <p><strong>ABOUT THE GUEST</strong></p> <p><strong>Gabriel Uribe</strong></p> <p> </p> <p>A coach with a strong purpose to serve others in creating more wealth!</p> <p> </p> <p>After bankrupting two businesses in his 30s, Gabriel painfully went on a life mission.

      <title>E124: Everything Is Energy - Interview with Doug Gordon</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/doug-gordon</link>
      <description>Today Pete speaks to Doug Gordon, CEO, coach, professional speaker and radio presenter! They talk about wellness, perspective, mindset, and more. An intriguing and enlightening episode.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  Doug moved around a lot when he was a child including living in Ireland, London and Belgium. He now bases himself between Ireland and England.
 Doug did an engineering degree but after working in a rather ‘mucky’ environment he switched paths and ended up in the investment world, working his way up and through various roles.
 After suffering health problems, major stress and a near death experience Doug healed himself using wellness techniques. It was this that made him want to help others.
 Doug found that having true belief in ‘energy’ and himself has brought him success. He says that our bodies are just the vehicle and the energy inside us is what is in anything and everything in the world.
 We can easily blame others for how we feel and for situations that arise. But we have more control than we know. Regardless of what has happened, you have to take responsibility for your actions, thoughts and behaviours.
 To ‘know’ what your mission in life can give you a lot of purpose. Just keep focusing on this, despite life’s ups and downs, then you will ‘jump out of bed’ every day as you know your purpose. That’s what Doug says is Fire In The Belly.
 An avid learner, Doug reads 2-3 books a week! He has also spent so much time listening and taking on board experiences with others, to enable him to utilise the best techniques for success; both in business and his personal life. He passes on everything he has learnt in life to others, to help them as much as he can.
   
 BEST MOMENTS 
 “My aim in life is to try and help people, find and connect with their true self and in turn find and connect with their true mission in life”
 “Am I perfect? Absolutely not”
 “I believe that everything is energy”
 “God damn I’m ready to go!”

      <title>E123: Go Make, Go Do, Go Share -  Interview with Melissa Mosher</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/melissa-mosher</link>
      <description>Today Pete speaks to Melissa Mosher, entrepreneur, business strategist and now works in virtual event production.
 Melissa says if she does the interview right today then you will finish listening both exhausted and inspired!
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  Melissa is in ‘corporate remission’. After working in corporate America for many years she decided to ‘do her own thing’ and is working for herself as an entrepreneur, business strategist and creator of virtual events.
 Gaming is a big part of Melissa’s life and it was how she first learnt how to “get people to do stuff”! Even in 2020 there is lots to learn from the gaming community, particularly about meetings online.
 Melissa’s whole being is engrained around being online. She doesn’t think she would enjoy working somewhere that wasn’t online now.
 For Melissa, Fire in the Belly is that insatiable urge to drive forward. When you have that feeling that you cannot ignore.
 A series of events including some rough jobs and a not-so-successful relationship made Melissa change the direction, drive and strategy of her life.
 If you can articulate the value you bring then people will find you and pay you for it.
 Melissa says her default is ‘logic’. She attributes this to her corporate background and being surrounded by a lot of men. She is trying to develop her soul/emotional side and listen to her ‘gut’ more as she thinks she has made bad decisions by only listening to her logical brain.
   
  
 BEST MOMENTS 
 “I qualify for both, random and strange”
 “It’s getting remote people to do their remote stuff together”
 “I love seeing grown men cry”
 “Extreme independence is a trauma response”

She doesn’t think she would enjoy working somewhere that wasn’t online now.</li> <li>For Melissa, Fire in the Belly is that insatiable urge to drive forward. When you have that feeling that you cannot ignore.</li> <li>A series of events including some rough jobs and a not-so-successful relationship made Melissa change the direction, drive and strategy of her life.</li> <li>If you can articulate the value you bring then people will find you and pay you for it.</li> <li>Melissa says her default is ‘logic’. She attributes this to her corporate background and being surrounded by a lot of men.

      <title>E122: There’s Power In The Story -  Interview with Emma Weaver</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/emma-weaver</link>
      <description>Today Pete speaks to Emma Weaver, the founder of Mental Wealth International, an organisation supporting businesses to achieve better mental health and wellbeing within the workplace. She has also recently become a best-selling author and is a mum to three beautiful children.
 As well as mental health, Pete and Emma talk about writing, IVF, childhood and more.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  Emma says one of the bravest things she has done is write and publish her book ‘The Blue Line’
 When Emma was going through her fertility journey she found that there were no books on the emotional journey of IVF, it was this that made her want to write. It is the book she would have needed to read at the time.
 Fire in the Belly, to Emma, is your passion, what makes you get up in the morning. Her fire in her belly is to create an environment where people can talk and are heard.
 If your workforce is mentally wealthy they will achieve more. They will be more productive and they will have less days off.
 Emma wants to create a legacy from her experience and book so that when she is no longer around there is a community and support for others.
  BEST MOMENTS 
 “They’re perfect little human beings”
 “I dedicate the book to those struggling with fertility…you are not alone”
 “Just be kind to people you have no idea what they are going through”
 “I feel like a badass”

      <title>E121: Are You Alive or Are You AWAKE?-  Interview with Arnon Barnes</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/arnon-barnes</link>
      <description>Today Pete speaks to Arnon Barnes, a serial entrepreneur, business mentor and peak performance trainer.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  Arnon grew up in a middle-class family in South Africa. His parents got divorced and he then moved to Israel with his mum. It was a tough time and he ended up leaving school, working and then doing national service.
 Arnon has trained over 120 thousand people in over 60 different countries!
 Arnon realised that there are so many people around us suffering. Most people seem ok outwardly but when you look under the surface you see this is not true.
 Saying no more than yes is how Arnon keeps focused and on track. Otherwise he would be tempted to start many things but struggle to finish them.
 Arnon relocated to Canada at 23 with just $800. It was here he discovered sales and his journey to financial freedom began.
 Never underestimate what you have to say. Never underestimate what you have to share with the world, you never know who needs to hear your story.
   
 BEST MOMENTS 
 “What greater gift can I give to others than teach and share the things that I learnt on my journey”
 “There’s a big difference between being alive and being awake”
 “I was excited, I just wanted to get out there, I was fearless”
 “We need coaches, we need people who are going to bring light to the world”

      <title>E120: Stories Are Life -  Interview with Adrienne MacIain</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/120-fitb</link>
      <description>Today Pete speaks to Adrienne MacIain, a story coach from Seattle. She helps individuals align themselves with their core message and then helps them get that message out via storytelling.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  A story coach is someone who brings out the stories of others. They help you figure out what stories are inside you, there might be ones ’colouring your world’ and you don’t even realise. They then help you decide whether it is a story to be shared, whether that is by writing a book, starting a podcast etc.
 We all have stories. People tend to disregard the importance of their own stories.
 Adrienne spent the first part of her life not knowing what she wanted or who she was. But it was an experience at an acting class that led her to change her life completely and sent her on a journey of self-discovery.
 Keep loving yourself and accepting yourself despite all the reasons not to in life. That os the real secret to happiness.
 Adrienne has three rules for happy living; to be authentic, be vulnerable and truthful and do uncomfortable work.
 How people respond to you is not about you. It’s about them. Being able to realise and then accept this can really relieve a burden for many, particularly 'people pleasers'.
  BEST MOMENTS 
 “We’re meant for adventures and we’re meant for stories”
 “That was a really long winded way of me saying I really like your title [Fire in the Belly]”
 “It never bothered me until it bothered me” 
 “So I would give myself a big hug and say it’s going to be ok”

      <title>E119: What Makes Us Human? Living, Breathing and Screwing Things Up!  Interview with Michelle Anhang</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/119-fitb</link>
      <description>"When we are no longer able to change a situation, we are challenged to change ourselves." - Viktor Frankl
 Today Pete speaks to Michelle Anhang, a leadership and lifecoach from Toronto, Canada. They talk about the trauma she has faced in her life and how it fuelled her passion and outlook.
 Michelle helps strip the silence, shatter the stigma, and get people on the path to becoming who they truly are. She works to support families faced with mental health challenges, individuals who are ready to stop their own cycle of self-sabotage, and professionals struggling with balance. This is her mission.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  Michelle’s husband died of suicide. She went into survival mode for the next ten years for the benefit of her two sons. She never fully processed her own grief.
 Eventually enough was enough and she could no longer carry the ‘backpack of shame, guilt and silence. She had to face everything, her childhood, her husbands death and her new identity.
 It was through discovering herself and going through these experiences that her coaching practice was born. She wanted to help others the way she helped herself.
 Michelle gave herself permission some time ago to be able to screw up sometimes. It’s all part of the human experience.
 Dancing was a breakthrough for Michelle. It was something she always wanted to do but had not allowed herself to experience due to her upbringing. It was one of the most liberating experiences of her life and she attributes it being a huge part of who she is today.
 Freedom is Michelle’s number one value. Every decision she makes she analyses its impact on her freedom.
 It was a number of things surrounding Michelle’s 45th birthday that lead her to seek recovery. She did talking therapy and also joined a counselling training class – this changed the direction of her life forever!
  BEST MOMENTS 
 “This is the most meaningful work I have ever done”
 “It’s what lights you up, (Fire in The Belly] what gets me excited, my passion, my purpose…being lit”
 “There’s something so beautiful about watching people in full expression”
 “I’m very emotion focused. If this feels right I’ll do that and if it doesn’t then I won’t”
 “I am choosing these things and I can choose something different”

      <title>E118: The Place You Go To When You’re Dreaming About Your Future - Interview with Jane Bayler</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/118-fitb</link>
      <description>Today Pete speaks to Jane Bayler, a serial entrepreneur with vast experience in growing and scaling entertainment businesses.
 They talk about entrepreneurism, marketing, childhood and more.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  Jane specialised in business growth for 20 years. She is an expert in scaling businesses fast and has worked across many global brands.
 An advocate for marketing automation and digital technology, Jane incorporates this into all of her programmes as well as her marketing consultancy work.
 Fire in The Belly means ‘Passion’ for Jane. That ‘thing’ that gets you up in the morning.
 Often we start out with infinite passion as children. We know what we want and believe we can get there. But as adults many people lose their passion and get stuck in the ‘hum drum’ of life.
 Jane’s superpower is taking complex ideas and breaking them down into ways that make them easier to understand. This is one of the reasons she writes.
 Jane had a difficult start to life but luckily was given a chance to go to boarding school when she was 13 and this turned her life around. She is still so grateful for this opportunity she was given.
 Jane started writing in spare moments she had when her children were young. She realised how much she loved it and it sparked a life-long passion for her.
 The expectation and pressure for young women nowadays Jane says is ‘insane’. It’s so expensive and unattainable. Social media makes an already difficult time and pressure 100 times worse. If you don’t have the maturity or support then it’s no wonder you would end up feeling ‘less than’.
  BEST MOMENTS 
 “The business grew from 1 to 6 million in really just a year”
 “The one mistake people make is they assume other people are actually interested in them”
 “You’re not alone”
 “Sitting on a beach writing books, with my children… that would pretty much be a perfect life for me”
 “They’re manufacturing a life”

      <title>E116: The Money Magician - Interview with Annette Ferguson</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/116-fitb</link>
      <description>Today Pete speaks to Annette Ferguson, she is a CEO of UK based accounting firm Annette &amp; Co. She is a chartered accountant and helps business owners take more money home from their businesses!
 An interesting conversation all about Annette’s childhood, creating her own business, continued learning and more!
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  Annette had never planned on becoming an accountant but she knew from an early age that she wanted to run her own business as this what her father did.
 Fire in the belly for Annette means, family, legacy and serving.
 Annette like many parents found parenting came naturally to her in some areas but not others!
 Annette loved dancing and performing as a child. She had a great set of friends and loved all of school. She didn’t find academia came naturally to her so hard to really work and study hard to achieve what she did.
 Annette started creating her business whilst working full time but took the plunge and it was one of the greatest, life changing decisions she made.
 Annette did struggle with the transition of going from a corporate role to being self-employed. Particularly in regards to productivity and loneliness but she soon built in systems and combatted these.
 Annette is a big fan of planning and believes the time you spend planning ends up saving you time in the long run.
 Annette always has future goals in place. She believes if you don't know where you are heading or where you want to to end up then there is no way you will ever get there.
   
 BEST MOMENTS 
 “I firmly believe that my business is there to serve my life and not the other way around”
 “There’s not often chances where you can completely be immersed in one singular thing”
  “Their life still looks like yours used to”
 “Five to seven thirty is just chaos!”

      <itunes:summary>Today Pete speaks to Annette Ferguson, she is a CEO of UK based accounting firm Annette &amp; Co. She is a chartered accountant and helps business owners take more money home from their businesses!
 An interesting conversation all about Annette’s childhood, creating her own business, continued learning and more!
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  Annette had never planned on becoming an accountant but she knew from an early age that she wanted to run her own business as this what her father did.
 Fire in the belly for Annette means, family, legacy and serving.
 Annette like many parents found parenting came naturally to her in some areas but not others!
 Annette loved dancing and performing as a child. She had a great set of friends and loved all of school. She didn’t find academia came naturally to her so hard to really work and study hard to achieve what she did.
 Annette started creating her business whilst working full time but took the plunge and it was one of the greatest, life changing decisions she made.
 Annette did struggle with the transition of going from a corporate role to being self-employed. Particularly in regards to productivity and loneliness but she soon built in systems and combatted these.
 Annette is a big fan of planning and believes the time you spend planning ends up saving you time in the long run.
 Annette always has future goals in place. She believes if you don't know where you are heading or where you want to to end up then there is no way you will ever get there.
   
 BEST MOMENTS 
 “I firmly believe that my business is there to serve my life and not the other way around”
 “There’s not often chances where you can completely be immersed in one singular thing”
  “Their life still looks like yours used to”
 “Five to seven thirty is just chaos!”

      <title>E115: I’m Not Out of Love With the World Yet - Interview with Russell Nohelty</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/115-fitb</link>
      <description>Today Pete speaks with best-selling author Russell Nohelty. He writes novels and comics which are mostly fantasy but also dabbles in sci-fi and mystery, as well as many other projects.
 They talk about films, writing, business, mental health and more!
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  Russell started writing comics after spending 6 years creating films. The faster turnaround and development of comics appealed to him after it was suggested to him by his agent.
 Russell is mostly know for comics right now but has written 29 novels including various series and even a childrens book!
 Russell talks about how little control he can have over the finished process of a comic. For this very reason he ends up writing far more novels. He makes sure that he loves writing his novels the most as this is what he has the most control over.
 There are only so many ‘spots’ for successful people.
 Russell has struggled with his mental health and has had to deal with thoughts of suicide. One of the reasons he says he has not taken his life up until now is because of the amount of other people who look up to him who also suffer with mental health problems. He feels responsible. He also says he has more to say and has not fallen out of love with the world yet.
 Russell says that intelligent people should be able to talk about things so that a ‘five year old’ could understand. He says that truly dumb people are the ones who overcomplicate things to try and make themselves ‘sound smart’.
 The 'Fire in Russells's Belly' is less passion but more 'compulsion'.
   
 BEST MOMENTS 
 “I like the collaborative process, I really love getting pages back and seeing what someone else has done with the words”
 “It’s way easier to make the courses…but it does nothing for me, does nothing to improve my state apart besides having money”
 “I don’t think many people actually understand what I am saying…it’s not because the people are bad they just don’t understand as they have never gotten there”
 “Stay strong in the face of all of the shit going on”

      <title>E114: What’s Your Masterpiece? – Interview with Alexander Inchbald</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/what-s-your-masterpiece-interview-with-alexander-i</link>
      <description>Today Pete speaks to Alexander Inchbald, British born but currently living in Switzerland. Alex helps people learn to love what they do. He helps individuals, teams and organizations seize this historic opportunity in an ever-changing world and step into a new reality. He helps them by creating a solid foundation to forge their ‘masterpiece’. He does this through coaching, creating workshops and programmes as well as through his artwork.
  
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  A masterpiece is the greatest thing you can create for yourself, for your family and to society.
   Alex always felt he was a creative but followed what his father wanted him to do and really struggled with life. He got the job he thought he wanted but was miserable, when he was then made redundant he hit rock bottom but a series of events lead him back to painting.
 Alex now paints in extreme locations, he says this is what taught him to creative everywhere.
   We are living through the greatest transition since The Industrial Revolution. The institutions upon which the modern world was created - health, finance, education, military - are dissolving around us. This can be disconcerting and disorienting. However, nature abhors a vacuum. So, what world would you like to fill the space being created?
 The last time we had an opportunity of this magnitude was after 9/11. We missed the opportunity then, because we didn't have the tech or the mindset to take advantage of this opportunity but now we do.
   We all have an ‘outer’ and an ‘inner’ game. The outer game is our identity, we access this through our five physical senses. As a society we mostly focus on this outer space, the physical, what we can see. The inner game is the ‘sixth sense’, our intuition. The key to unlocking our inner game is via purpose.
   BEST MOMENTS 
 “Everyone has a masterpiece in them”
 “Everyone is an artist today, but not necessarily the artist who paints, the artist who sculpts, or writes”
 “Is one season more powerful than another? No. But are we neglecting one season? Yes”
 “A lot of gurus say to empty your mind. But what they really mean is come from a space of ‘nothingness’”
 “One of the biggest myths is that it is hard work to generate money”
 "Sometimes good doesn't happen so great can"

      <itunes:summary>Today Pete speaks to Alexander Inchbald, British born but currently living in Switzerland. Alex helps people learn to love what they do. He helps individuals, teams and organizations seize this historic opportunity in an ever-changing world and step into a new reality. He helps them by creating a solid foundation to forge their ‘masterpiece’. He does this through coaching, creating workshops and programmes as well as through his artwork.
  
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  A masterpiece is the greatest thing you can create for yourself, for your family and to society.
   Alex always felt he was a creative but followed what his father wanted him to do and really struggled with life. He got the job he thought he wanted but was miserable, when he was then made redundant he hit rock bottom but a series of events lead him back to painting.
 Alex now paints in extreme locations, he says this is what taught him to creative everywhere.
   We are living through the greatest transition since The Industrial Revolution. The institutions upon which the modern world was created - health, finance, education, military - are dissolving around us. This can be disconcerting and disorienting. However, nature abhors a vacuum. So, what world would you like to fill the space being created?
 The last time we had an opportunity of this magnitude was after 9/11. We missed the opportunity then, because we didn't have the tech or the mindset to take advantage of this opportunity but now we do.
   We all have an ‘outer’ and an ‘inner’ game. The outer game is our identity, we access this through our five physical senses. As a society we mostly focus on this outer space, the physical, what we can see. The inner game is the ‘sixth sense’, our intuition. The key to unlocking our inner game is via purpose.
   BEST MOMENTS 
 “Everyone has a masterpiece in them”
 “Everyone is an artist today, but not necessarily the artist who paints, the artist who sculpts, or writes”
 “Is one season more powerful than another? No. But are we neglecting one season? Yes”
 “A lot of gurus say to empty your mind. But what they really mean is come from a space of ‘nothingness’”
 “One of the biggest myths is that it is hard work to generate money”
 "Sometimes good doesn't happen so great can"

      <title>E113: Interview with Lifestyle Entrepreneur Brian Meder</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/113-fitb</link>
      <description>Today Pete speaks to Brian Meder. Brian is German but currently lives in Ireland and up until five years ago was an engineer. He now spends his time as a lifestyle entrepreneur and holistic biohacker.
 In this mind-opening episode they talk about childhood, biohacking, philosophy and more.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  Brian was interested in the environment and environmental protection from a young age and it is this that lead him to study environmental protection including waste management and industrial cleaning. He then became an engineer even though this wasn’t his original plan.
 Brian had a job he enjoyed but it was a desk job and made him realise it wasn’t what he wanted to do for the rest of his life.
 Brian’s girlfriend is an energy therapist and it was her that first introduced him to the world of bioenergy and the subconscious mind. His entire mindset changed and he quit his job and moved to Ireland.
 Brian says that previous generations contribute to who you are as a person today, even going back many generations ago – so much gets passed down that aren’t just physical attributes.
 More of an ‘outsider’ at school, Brian always felt a bit different and always questioned everything.
 Brian says fire in the belly is empowering people to go after what they really want to do, whether that be their career, or money or a completely personal journey. It’s totally different for everyone.
 Children pick up on everything. They absorb energy. It’s important to encourage parents to learn about and work on their own happiness. Your child doesn’t care about what job you do, they just want you to be happy. They want to spend the most time with you as possible.
 Only you have the power over your reactions. No one can make you feel a certain way. Take a step back and look at why you have reacted a certain way.
 Some people find a negative in everything and it’s because as humans we carry so much with us. It’s like an oil filter, if everything has to go through a dirty filter it makes no difference how clean the oil is. We all interpret the same situation differently because we are all different.
   
  BEST MOMENTS 
 “I realised from an early age when you believe in something and share that people actually pick up on it and listen to it”
 “She opened up a lot of the new things to me…the idea that your thoughts create your reality, just believe things are going to work out, go after what you think is right rather than what you are told to do”
 “Who I am today is a completely different person to who I was 9 years ago”
 “Once you open that box, it’s open, you just go deeper and deeper”
 “When you have a lot of stuff that you carry with you it doesn’t matter how ‘nice’ something is you still have a negative aspect to it”

      <title>E112: Be Patient, Be Present, Be Joyful – Interview with Ryan Stanley</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/112-fitb</link>
      <description>Today Pete speaks to Ryan Stanley, husband, father and personal coach living in New Jersey USA. Ryan is also an author and serial entrepreneur, he loves creating businesses and believes entrepreneurialism is a form of art.
 They talk about Ryan’s journey to who he is now, how he tackles each day and what matters to him the most.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  Ryan’s superpower is his awareness of the ‘now’. He has spent a lot of time choosing to be where is now, he Is not fearful of the future or the past.
 If you change your mindset to seeing things happening ‘for you’ rather than ‘to you’ then you will see the world completely differently. You will start to see more gratitude and curiosity. You will then recognise your role in creating your own path.
 Ryan says he is here to serve those that are on the cusp of self-awareness, that realise that there is more to life or recognise that they have been living for something or someone else.
 Anything worth doing takes time and effort. If you aren’t happy with who you are and where you are then it is your responsibility to do something about it. You can do this right now, you don’t have to wait for a ‘wake-up call’ you can make the decision now.
 You can change the past. We remember our past in the way we want to. We remember the stories and the events in a way that fits with our story. We can choose to change the way we frame our past.
 You connect with humanity on a different level when you experience different cultures around the world. Travelling to all six continents is on the top of Ryan’s bucket list for this very reason.
 Everybody has different potentials. Most people know what their gifts are, whether they say it or acknowledge it or not.
  BEST MOMENTS 
 “Entrepreneurialism is a form of art”
 “Are you spending it worrying about what happened two years ago or thinking about what someone else somewhere else thinks or are you choosing your time now to create the best version of yourself”
 “Literally there is only now, right now”
 “To change your reality, you need to change your personality”
 “There are limitless possibilities in everything and when we judge anything, put a label on anything, we actually remove other possibilities. The more we do that the less we can experience life”

 ABOUT THE GUEST
 Ryan is a lifelong entrepreneur who is known for his impressively natural ability to connect with, understand and empower those who are willing to make significant changes in their personal and professional lives so they can end up being the best versions of themselves. Since graduating from The Institute for Professional Excellence in Coaching (iPEC) in 2009 as a Certified Professional Coach (CPC) Ryan has changed the lives of hundreds of clients from all walks of life. More recently, Ryan has also been working at his alma mater as both an Admissions Coach, where he closed almost $22 Million in sales in 8 years, and as their first ever Internal Coach where he coached staff from entry level to C suite on everything from daily professional growth to how they want to show up energetically in other more personal areas of their life.
 In July of 2019 Ryan published his first book titled 'Be Patient, Be Present, Be Joyful: A First Aid Kit for the Emotional Bumps, Scrapes, and Bruises of Life'. It can be found anywhere that books are sold and on his own website at https://www.ryanstanley.com/
 In the Spring of 2020 Ryan took his sales and coaching expertise to new levels by co-founding Teach Me to Sell, an online Sales Training Organization focusing on working closely with Service Oriented SoloPreneurs or SOS's (Coaches, Consultants, Direct Sales) as well as those new to any sales role in purpose driven organizations to help them push past fears and blocks around sales.

      <title>E111: Changing the world to a Healthier Place - Interview with Alison Trethewey-Smith</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/111-fitb</link>
      <description>Today Pete speaks to Alison Trethewey-Smith, she lives in Kent in the UK. Her career originally was based in London in stockbroking but she has had many different directions since then.
 An emotional episode; Alison talks about the start of her career, being a mother, the sudden illness of her husband and her journey to where she is now.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  
 Alison feels she has been on a massive journey her entire life.
 She loves travelling and has been extensively around the world but has always lived in the UK.
 When Alison worked in the city she would do a 4 hour commute to work, she did this for 12 years. She found working in the city fun but also very stressful. She found over time that this lifestyle became exhausting. Alison decided to have a baby with her husband and between them figure out a plan so she did not have to go back to work.
 Alison absolutely loved having a baby, life felt perfect to her. But several months later her life completely changed when her husband fell very ill.
 Her husband Tony was diagnosed with a brain tumour. It was an incredibly difficult time in her life only made easier by her beautiful son Thomas who sprinkled their lives with happiness in such a sad time. Sadly after multiple treatment options Tony lost his battle with cancer.
 Alison has always found that her mum is the one that has always supported her emotionally.
 Alison discovered that she had years of programming that lead her to exhaustion and burnout. She had to spend time unlearning so many habits on her journey to health.
 Alison’s fire in the belly is to have her own retreat. Where she can have people come and learn from her and have treatment from various practitioners she knows that can help them make their life the best it can be. To change people’s lives for the better.
  BEST MOMENTS 
 “Changing the world to a healthier place, getting people to see that it’s within their remit to be able to make their life better and healthier”
 “I left work and felt elated”
 “That is how my life was at that time…I had happiness mixed in with the sadness”
 “If you think there’s a chance you just do it”
 “I believe we are put on this earth for a reason and I believe that my fire in my belly is to help people to change their lives for the better”
 “Children are becoming depressed and that’s not on”

      <title>E110: Sly the Triangle - Interview with Sly Tha Deuce</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/110-fitb</link>
      <description>Today Pete speaks to Sly Tha Deuce, author, music publisher and songwriter. He also coaches and provides resources to artists to help them build wealth whilst they build fame.
 Originally from Colorado Sly has been inspired and influenced to succeed by the people he was surrounded with growing up. He now wants to pass this joy onto others. Listen in today to hear about how he does this, his take on the music industry, his philosophies about life and more!
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  Music has always been Sly’s medium of expression.
 You can listen to music and not even understand the lyrics but you can feel the emotion through the musical composition.
 Commercialising music can be incredibly difficult as you are trying to monetise passion and art. This is something Sly helps musicians with.
 Fire in the belly for Sly is whatever you do to leave you imprint on the world.
 For Sly, seeing what others in his life had and what level they were at is what gave him the motivation to be who he is today. It really opened his eyes to the type of habits and mindset he would need to embody to have a successful and fulfilled life.
 Only we as individuals are aware of our own personal pain so when we hear another person express that pain through music we truly resonate with it.
 Sly wanted to build a life where he was proud of what he was doing every day. Where what he is doing fits into his goals and vision. He doesn’t want to just cherry pick best moments and the rest be bearable, he wants to enjoy his entire life.
 Sly states that you should always follow your heart. You can even handle bad situations well if you handle them with some love. It’s important to not look back at things with regret. He doesn’t want to have a ‘regret jar’ to open when he is old!
   
 BEST MOMENTS 
 “It just resonates with me in a way that other things don’t”
 “The same passion that you put into making that music should be applied to making sure that someone hears it”
 “It’s personal to everyone that’s the beauty of it [Fire in The Belly]”
 “My superpower is knowing people”

      <title>E109: Thoughtful Leadership - Interview with Mindy Gibbins-Klein</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/109-fitb</link>
      <description>Today Pete speaks to Mindy Gibbins-Klein, author, trainer and award-winning entrepreneur. She helps people get their message out there, often via a book but also through many other platforms.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  
 Mindy has written 9 books, Mindy lost her friend to suicide when she was just 26, this is what inspired her to write her first book and launched her career.
 Mindy partakes in thoughtful leadership, this is really taking the time to think through what you are putting out there. It is spending time reflecting on what you are doing and what you plan to do and being truly honest. The willingness to look at what you are doing and be honest about what you see.
 24 Carat Bold, a book Mindy wrote, was the first time she was truly bold herself and encouraged others to also be bold; to be opinionated but still respectable.
 A lot of people hold back what they really think, they worry about what others might say or think. Mindy wants to help others fire in the belly and help them fulfil that dream they have, show them it’s possible and how they can do it.
 Mindy finds more reward in helping others than doing things for herself. She gets more out of helping others than even writing her own books.
 Mindy believes that we are all capable of continuous improvement. We are all born with the ability to strive for more and make decisions for ourselves and our lives. It’s a choice.
 Goal setting is about deciding whether to commit and ‘pay the price’. Decide whether you are going to do the work to achieve the goal. You will feel more authentic even if you are honest with yourself and say no and you will also achieve the goals you do decide to go for.
 Just because you want to improve or change things it doesn’t mean that there is anything wrong with how you are right now. Recognising that you want to do something different and doing that is a beautiful thing. Focus and appreciate that.
  BEST MOMENTS 
 “I’m not here to judge or play god or anything like that but if someone wants to do it and it’s not happening then we step in”
 “Don’t die with the book or the story still in you” 
 “I think every single person is born with the ability to do the hard work, to make the tough decisions, to make sacrifices, to change their lives…continuous improvement is there for all of us”
 “Most people are not self-aware at all…but if you can look at your own stuff and have a higher standard for yourself…you can end up being a thought-leader”

      <title>E108: Heart Lessons for Magical Living - Interview with Joseph McGuire</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/108-fitb</link>
      <description>Today Pete speaks to Joseph McGuire, a complimentary therapist from Ireland who currently works as a facial profiler. They talk about belief, science, philosophies and more. This is a really in depth and thought provoking episode.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  A facial profiler is based on centuries of Chinese tradition and is based on the premise that our facial features show a huge amount about us, including our personality and behaviours.
 Joseph says he is more concerned with knowing than believing, which means he would rather observe something and look for the evidence.
 Science is not definitive, science is the continuous process of exploring.
 There is intellectual knowing where we have tangible proof of something and something called internal knowing which is more of a ‘feeling’ and ‘deep sense’.
 Joseph has been heavily influenced by Chinese culture and traditions in his work. China has has a huge influence across many nations in the west
 Joseph feels like he is very much on the right course for his life but knows he has the ability to adapt when and if needed.
 Joseph classes himself as what’s called an ‘extreme listener’. He doesn’t just listen to the words being said but understands the deeper meaning at hand. He is very intuitive.
   
 BEST MOMENTS 
 “I don’t get caught up in belief because for me belief is like you’re put oneself in a box”
 “I have a scientific outlook, I am continually asking questions”
 “Fire to me covers a multitude, it can be a blaze which is raging or it can be a tiny flame which creates a light”
 “I can sit comfortably in silence, with somebody, and silence can be immensely powerful… to be able to sit in silence with somebody is an incredibly powerful experience”.

      <title>E107: Facing The Fear - Interview with Nina Harper</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/107-fitb</link>
      <description>Today Pete speaks to ‘Work in progress’ Nina Harper! She was born and raised in England, she has lived all over the world but now lives in Northern Ireland where she has written two books about her daughters’ adoption journey.
 Tune in today to hear about Nina’s book, the adoption of her daughter, philosophies, her background, who she is as a person and more!
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  Nina has found the process of writing her books very cathartic, at first she was worried about the personal nature of her books and ‘oversharing’ but now believes this is what makes them resonate so much with others.
 Nina and her partner had an extremely difficult and emotional journey through infertility which then lead them to the adoption process.
 Nina heard a lot of no’s through the adoption process but her Fire in the Belly didn’t allow her to take no for an answer! She was solution focused throughout and kept pushing.
 Nina puts a lot of faith into the ‘systems’ she has created in her life, things like to-do lists and spider diagrams. As an emotionally driven person these often give her the clarity and focus she needs in various aspects of her life.
 Nina is a quiet, introverted, deeply emotional person with a strong sense of right and wrong. She is massively impacted by the state of the world today and can’t watch the news without getting visibly upset.
 Nina said that without the help and support of so many they wouldn’t have been able to adopt their daughter, they can’t thank them all enough.
   
  
 BEST MOMENTS 
 “Families are made up of all different types of people nowadays”
 “I was worried that I had overshared...that’s what they liked about it [the book] it rings true, they can relate to it”
 “You’ve got to face that fear, if you truly think it’s the right thing to do”
 “Fire in the belly means to me not taking that no [for an answer], not accepting that, I’ve got this drive, I’ve got this goal I am not frightened to challenge this”
 “When it took off [the plane], I felt safe for the first time in a long time”

      <title>E105: The Iceberg Effect - Interview with Sue Bowles</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/105-fitb</link>
      <description>Today on the Fire In The Belly Podcast, Mighty Pete talks to Sue Bowles for a second time. Sue is a well-known coach and author from Ohio. She has had an incredible life journey and the past six years have been truly transformative for her. They speak again about her support to those in need of inspiration and her remarkable wisdom around healing. 
 Sue is unafraid and very committed to amplifying the voices of many women, especially sexual abuse survivors. Know more about her ultimate passion when you tune in today.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  Victim vs Survivor. Be careful of how you label or identify yourself. Always know that you are in control of how your life should steer.  “I use the word survivor over the victim because if I call myself a victim, I continue to let it control me and identify and define me. When I use the word ‘survivor’, a very empowering word, it means I control ‘it’.”–Sue Bowles
  
 Sue is lucky since once she found her voice, she was able to use it to help others. It was a long journey. For six years, she went from being very anxious and lost to being a self-aware and optimistic individual. This experience motivated her to share her own story, so other people feel encouraged to move forward.
 It’s very difficult to navigate life when you’re still haunted by your traumatic past. Sue experienced emotional abuse with her ex-partner. Her healing process was quite a tough journey that lasted for quite a long time. Freeing herself from the toxic attachment was just half the struggle. Redeeming yourself and finally making plans to attain what is meant for you can happen even after such burdens.
 Sue values her relationship with God above all else. She believes that God did not and will not let anything bad happen to her. Everything is just part of life. For Sue, it’s clinging to her faith that made her vanish any doubts and strengthen her self-belief and self-worth.
  BEST MOMENTS
 "No one is too far gone, there's always help"
 "You are worth it and you will get through to the other side"
 "When we believe we are worth it we will go through whatever it takes"

      <title>E104: The Hungry Mummy - Interview with Danielle Bell</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/104-fitb</link>
      <description>It’s truly a life worth living when we’re always hungry for success and abundance!
 In this episode, we get to know how the Hungry Mummy Danielle Bell helps the newcomers (especially mothers) start to raise finance, source deals, and learn about accountability. Danielle, who admits that she was previously a people pleaser, can’t help and be amazed at how well her life is going now. She has grown her property portfolio, been mentoring about property sourcing, and is now co-hosting the PPN Belfast Podcast. These—and other greater things—wouldn’t have happened in her life if Danielle didn’t realise what her fire in the belly is!
 Stay tuned and start learning about the hungry mummy’s life story now!
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  
 Danielle used to live a life that was controlled by whatever society deemed normal. It was not her dream she was pursuing. It was always others' opinions that influenced her life decisions. Not only did it bring stagnation in her life, but it also made her question her identity and her capabilities.

 
 As humans, we just want to feel that we belong and that we’re accepted. But this doesn’t happen by becoming what others want us to be. It’s all about accepting who we are, primarily. When we stop looking for validations that only we can give to ourselves, it’s then that we feel full and loved.

 
 Change your “should’s” to “must’s”. Since Danielle started extending her business online, it became difficult for her to avoid the seldom toxic engagements that exist in social media. She told herself that she must be mindful—mindful of what she’ll absorb and mindful of how she’ll handle them.   
 As much as possible, if she feels the negative energy coming from anything, she pauses so she can’t cause harm to other people.

 
 We must always lead our life with compassion. We aren’t better than anyone else. Wherever you go, whatever success you reach, stay humble, and remember to bring a positive impact to others' lives.

  
 
 The last six months of Danielle have been her happiest as she feels she’s serving her purpose. Coping with the COVID-19 outbreak has been very challenging, not just to the businesses, but to every single one of us. So, Danielle is quite elated that she can bring hope to HUNGRY newcomers and educate them about property sourcing.

  BEST MOMENTS 
  
 “Don’t live someone else’s dreams.”

 
 “This is who I am. It’s either you like me or you don’t like me.”

 
 “Be kind to everyone, you don’t know what’s happening in their lives.”

 
 “The future is bright, but I’m not under the illusion that this will come easily.”

 
 “Commit or don’t commit at all.”

        <![CDATA[<p><strong>It’s truly a life worth living when we’re always hungry for success and abundance!</strong></p> <p><strong>In this episode, we get to know how the Hungry Mummy Danielle Bell helps the newcomers (especially mothers) start to raise finance, source deals, and learn about accountability. Danielle, who admits that she was previously a people pleaser, can’t help and be amazed at how well her life is going now. She has grown her property portfolio, been mentoring about property sourcing, and is now co-hosting the PPN Belfast Podcast. These—and other greater things—wouldn’t have happened in her life if Danielle didn’t realise what her fire in the belly is!</strong></p> <p><strong>Stay tuned and start learning about the hungry mummy’s life story now!</strong></p> <p><strong>KEY TAKEAWAYS</strong></p> <ul> <li>
<strong> </strong><strong>Danielle used to live a life that was controlled by whatever society deemed normal. It was not her dream she was pursuing. It was always others' opinions that influenced her life decisions. Not only did it bring stagnation in her life, but it also made her question her identity and her capabilities.</strong>
</li> <li>
<strong> </strong><strong>As humans, we just want to feel that we belong and that we’re accepted. But this doesn’t happen by becoming what others want us to be. It’s all about accepting who we are, primarily. When we stop looking for validations that only we can give to ourselves, it’s then that we feel full and loved.</strong>
</li> <li>
<strong> </strong><strong>Change your <em>“should’s”</em> to <em>“must’s”.</em> Since Danielle started extending her business online, it became difficult for her to avoid the seldom toxic engagements that exist in social media. She told herself that she must be mindful—mindful of what she’ll absorb and mindful of how she’ll handle them. </strong> <ul> <li>
<strong> </strong><strong>As much as possible, if she feels the negative energy coming from anything, she pauses so she can’t cause harm to other people.</strong>
</li> <li>
<strong> </strong><strong>We must always lead our life with compassion. We aren’t better than anyone else. Wherever you go, whatever success you reach, stay humble, and remember to bring a positive impact to others' lives.</strong>
</li> </ul> </li> <li>
<strong> </strong><strong>The last six months of Danielle have been her happiest as she feels she’s serving her purpose. Coping with the COVID-19 outbreak has been very challenging, not just to the businesses, but to every single one of us. So, Danielle is quite elated that she can bring hope to HUNGRY newcomers and educate them about property sourcing.</strong>
</li> </ul> <p><strong>BEST MOMENTS </strong></p> <ul> <li>
<strong> </strong><strong><em>“Don’t live someone else’s dreams.”</em></strong>
</li> <li>
<strong> </strong><strong><em>“This is who I am. It’s either you like me or you don’t like me.”</em></strong>
</li> <li>
<strong> </strong><strong><em>“Be kind to everyone, you don’t know what’s happening in their lives.”</em></strong>
</li> <li>
<strong> </strong><strong><em>“The future is bright, but I’m not under the illusion that this will come easily.”</em></strong>
</li> <li>
<strong> </strong><strong><em>“Commit or don’t commit at all.”</em></strong>

      <title>E103: Interview with David Chudyk</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/103-fitb</link>
      <description>“Salaries aren’t cool—they restrict you and bind you.” – David Chudyk
 Today on the Fire In The Belly Podcast, Mighty Pete talks to David Chudyk from Parallel Financial about his career journey—from working a 9-5 corporate job, he was able to take the leap and is now managing his own insurance company.
 Since the early 2000s, David has been helping many of his clients improve their financial well-being and also build &amp; maintain their wealth. More importantly, he always emphasizes to everyone the importance of career and money philosophy. One should be able to improve their wealth when they have already built the mindset, determination, and the courage to take risks. You can learn more about some of his tips and his inspiring story when you listen to this episode.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  
 Developing problem-solver skills is a necessity. It’s not just for entrepreneurs and leaders. It is a life skill. If you want to reach the finish line and stomach every blockage that happens, then you must be tough, resilient, and always be a thinker.
 Foster an environment where every single one of your team members learns how to be independent and resourceful. They can’t be always waiting for the captain to make the call and initiate. To have a high-performing team, you want them to be problem-solvers too.
 Being not well-off through college served as a motivation for David to work harder. He wasn’t going to bars to drink and have fun—he was using his free time to earn extra cash. He learned early on about responsibility and hustling.
 After college, he worked for big corporations, taking 9-5 jobs. He was earning more than enough—a very competitive salary—but he figured out it wasn’t what he wanted. There was too much time wasted which he could spend with his family or on other more important things! He knew he can do more and earn more in a lesser time frame. He knew there was so much he could do.
 David went on and proceeded to do things on his own. He was a keen observer and fast learner so he always understood how the industry works. He took the chance, devised a solid business plan, collated a list of prospects, and helped a lot of people with his expertise.  At present, his company Chudyk Financial Services and Insurance Group has been offering wealth management assistance to individuals and companies for 15 years.
  
  BEST MOMENTS 
  “Why would I try harder to make the same amount of money? Why would I do all the extra things with no additional rewards?”
 “If you’re not going into a career where you don’t need a specific college degree, then you just need any college degree.”
 “There’s a difference between liking your craft and being good at your craft.”
 “Sometimes, when you meet the right people, they just make things happen.”
 “Our career and money philosophy was shaped while we were growing up.”

      <title>E102: Interview with Tristan Lee, The Gorgeousness Coach</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/102-fitb</link>
      <description>There isn’t a secret elixir to staying young forever, but there is a way you can cheat your way to looking and feeling young forever!
 In this episode of the Fire In The Belly Podcast, Mighty Pete talks to Health &amp; Wellness Coach and Author Tristan Lee about how he helps people feel great about themselves and enjoy their lives to the fullest, aside from sharing the secret to ageing gorgeously! 
 Though Tristan is nearly 50, he shares that he still gets mistaken as a teenager. How so? Well, there are no skincare routine tips and meal prepping ideas to be shared today. But there is something much greater we can learn from the Gorgeousness Coach Tristan Lee. It’s all about starting from within. Tristan has a strong self-belief, knows his value, and is always unapologetically himself. Be inspired today and learn how it feels to be gorgeous inside out.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  
 Feel gorgeous to look gorgeous. Understand that there’s a relationship between our thoughts and our bodies. If you want to age gorgeously, then follow Tristan’s advice: start from within. When it’s time to decide what to eat, whether it be a show you watch on the tv or the food that you munch, we must be mindful.

 
 Cut out toxic connections, remove all distractions. It’s normal to get yourself shaken by any disapproval or bad feedback from someone. But if you see that it’s doing you harm in the long run, then just do it--distance yourself! It’s hard, but you should feel lighter when it’s done. Let nothing (ever) disturb your inner peace. It’s time to see the real you and experience life fully.

 
 ‘I know my value.’ Tristan believes it, and he reminds himself of this every time. One doesn’t need external validation. When you move, it should be for yourself and not impress others. He’s done his work—he’s accepted and healed from his past traumas, and he continues to learn and grow every single day. It becomes easy to dream and act from then on, according to Tristan.

 
 ‘I’m responsible for myself, my wellness, my self-esteem, my business, and other stuff that I can control in my life.’ While it’s true that some of us had, or even having, dreadful and even traumatic experiences, we must have a conscious effort to get out of it and draw out the negative energy it gives.

 
 No man is an island. It’s true. Acknowledge the people who have always been there. You must learn too how to accept help, and in return, offer some help for those who ask. Compassion and gratitude go a long way.

  BEST MOMENTS 
  
 “I am valuable, and I deserve to be healthy.”

 
 “I ain’t one thing. I am all things at different times.”

 
 “All I do is combine all those lessons and experiences together. They all led me to what I’m doing right now. And it’s exactly what I’m meant to be doing.”

      <itunes:summary>There isn’t a secret elixir to staying young forever, but there is a way you can cheat your way to looking and feeling young forever!
 In this episode of the Fire In The Belly Podcast, Mighty Pete talks to Health &amp; Wellness Coach and Author Tristan Lee about how he helps people feel great about themselves and enjoy their lives to the fullest, aside from sharing the secret to ageing gorgeously! 
 Though Tristan is nearly 50, he shares that he still gets mistaken as a teenager. How so? Well, there are no skincare routine tips and meal prepping ideas to be shared today. But there is something much greater we can learn from the Gorgeousness Coach Tristan Lee. It’s all about starting from within. Tristan has a strong self-belief, knows his value, and is always unapologetically himself. Be inspired today and learn how it feels to be gorgeous inside out.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  
 Feel gorgeous to look gorgeous. Understand that there’s a relationship between our thoughts and our bodies. If you want to age gorgeously, then follow Tristan’s advice: start from within. When it’s time to decide what to eat, whether it be a show you watch on the tv or the food that you munch, we must be mindful.

 
 Cut out toxic connections, remove all distractions. It’s normal to get yourself shaken by any disapproval or bad feedback from someone. But if you see that it’s doing you harm in the long run, then just do it--distance yourself! It’s hard, but you should feel lighter when it’s done. Let nothing (ever) disturb your inner peace. It’s time to see the real you and experience life fully.

 
 ‘I know my value.’ Tristan believes it, and he reminds himself of this every time. One doesn’t need external validation. When you move, it should be for yourself and not impress others. He’s done his work—he’s accepted and healed from his past traumas, and he continues to learn and grow every single day. It becomes easy to dream and act from then on, according to Tristan.

 
 ‘I’m responsible for myself, my wellness, my self-esteem, my business, and other stuff that I can control in my life.’ While it’s true that some of us had, or even having, dreadful and even traumatic experiences, we must have a conscious effort to get out of it and draw out the negative energy it gives.

 
 No man is an island. It’s true. Acknowledge the people who have always been there. You must learn too how to accept help, and in return, offer some help for those who ask. Compassion and gratitude go a long way.

  BEST MOMENTS 
  
 “I am valuable, and I deserve to be healthy.”

 
 “I ain’t one thing. I am all things at different times.”

 
 “All I do is combine all those lessons and experiences together. They all led me to what I’m doing right now. And it’s exactly what I’m meant to be doing.”

 
 “If you believe that you can, then you can do it. We go where we believe.”

 
 “This is not the end of me. I’m a fighter.”

      <title>E101: Hitting the 100th Episode! Part 2: Together with Mark Victor Hansen &amp; Crystal Hansen, Pat Slattery &amp; Donna Kennedy</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/101-fitb</link>
      <description>Today on the Fire In The Belly Podcast, it’s Mighty Pete who takes the hot seat! He gives us a glimpse of his latest book, BELIFE or BELIEF, a collection of 20 odd stories for people who are looking for a change and even life transformation.
 His co-author Heather Lundy, who also was a guest in a previous episode, will be the one asking Pete book- and even non-book related questions. In this episode, we get to know how it can be a tool for ANYONE who stumbles upon it, what we can learn from Pete’s writing process, what part the FITB podcast plays in this new project of his, why should we know our WHYs, and many more.
 BELIFE or BELIEF will be out very very soon, make sure you have already reserved your copy. Check the link below for more details.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  
 Who is the book for? “It’s for those who make the choice to pick it up and read it.” – Mighty Pete   
 A pretty bold statement. Mighty Pete doesn’t want to impose anything. But, if you decide to read and finish it, he guarantees that you’ll find someone/something to relate with. You’ll slam the book close with such fervor because finally, you see clarity in your future. 

  
 
 It’s all about ‘finding the flame’. If it’s still not apparent, Mighty Pete is all about igniting the flame, the passion in you. In the podcast, he talks to numerous people hoping that you get inspired to continue, change, or even start anew for whatever you feel strongly for.   
 You are unstoppable when you already know who you are and what you’re capable of. Just like a flame, it only grows bigger when you add fuel to it or create more friction. A motivated and driven person doesn’t ever stop trying and hustling because he/she knows there’s success in the end.

 
 You also stop looking for validations from everyone else. 

  
 
 Mighty Pete has a unique writing process. When Mighty Pete was writing his part in the book, he wasn’t in front of a desktop typing or holding a pen and paper to do so—he was recording his voice. And then, he just used a speech recognition app to use its voice-to-text feature. Pete knows this is a better method since he’s a quick-thinking lad.

 
 Start with the WHY. We can only think of a step by step—and even spotless—plan in reaching our goals when we know what we’re doing it for. Is it the treasure at the end? The thrill of going through the journey? Or both? You need to understand what drives you so you can reasonably strategise.

  BEST MOMENTS 
  
 “I believe you’re born with it and it stays with you until you die.”

 
 “The past is nothing but a memory. You can still change something now.”

 
 “If the WHY is big enough, then the HOW will happen.”

 
 “It only works when you do something about it. It only works if you choose to make a difference.”

A motivated and driven person doesn’t ever stop trying and hustling because he/she knows there’s success in the end.</strong>

<strong> </strong><strong>You also stop looking for validations from everyone else. </strong>

<strong> </strong><strong>Mighty Pete has a unique writing process. When Mighty Pete was writing his part in the book, he wasn’t in front of a desktop typing or holding a pen and paper to do so—he was recording his voice. And then, he just used a speech recognition app to use its voice-to-text feature. Pete knows this is a better method since he’s a quick-thinking lad.</strong>
</li> <li>
<strong> </strong><strong>Start with the WHY. We can only think of a step by step—and even spotless—plan in reaching our goals when we know what we’re doing it for. Is it the treasure at the end? The thrill of going through the journey? Or both? You need to understand what drives you so you can reasonably strategise.</strong>

      <title>E100: Hitting the 100th Episode! Part 1: Together with Mark Victor Hansen &amp; Crystal Hansen, Pat Slattery &amp; Donna Kennedy</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/100-fitb</link>
      <description>“It’s so magnetic and heavily charged when someone has their passion. It doesn’t even matter who or what you’re talking about... It’s finding ways to scale it and take it forward.” – Pete Lonton
 Unbelievable how time flies and how many powerful conversations we’ve had!
 It’s Fire In The Belly’s 100th episode, and to celebrate this milestone, your host Mighty Pete is joined by Mark Victor Hansen, Crystal Hansen, Pat Slattery, and Donna Kennedy. Together they talk about how far the podcast has reached and how big the fire is (still) to continue producing more content!
 Though the four have been guests and have inspired a lot of listeners before, there is a lot more they’re bringing to the table on this episode. Among the topics discussed was the difference between hearing and listening, being impactful to other people’s lives, acknowledging the oneness of the universe, and their book ‘BELIFE and BELIEF’.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  
 It’s incredible how much positive feedback they all get. Truly, bringing a positive impact on other people is the most satisfying thing you’ll ever do. It’s when we become selfless that we accomplish more for ourselves.  
 The four of them recall how they changed other people’s views and beliefs for the better. Some weren’t believers, in fact of mentoring or coaching. It’s not until they let other people’s perspectives in, that they recognise their full power and control over their lives.

  
 
 Dive into self-help and inspirational resources as early as possible. There is no age limit with knowledge and wisdom. A teen can start finding mentors that can help them materialise their dreams. Also, having a mentor/coach at an early age helps them strengthen self-identity and ‘fill the gap’ during their identity development.  
 Also, continuous learning is one of the most precious skills every individual should include in their skill set. One can learn further and do more outside the classroom.

  
 
 Listening vs hearing. Hearing is one of the 5 senses a human has; it’s perceiving sounds with our ears. Everyone can do this. Meanwhile, listening involves processing and understanding what you have heard. What draws the fine line between the two is the voluntary effort that we put in—the focus and a choice to make sense of what we hear around us.  
 When mentoring, it’s important that (1) the client is willing and open-minded to learn, and (2) you allow them to have enough time to process and think about it. It’s a two-way process where the parties need to speak and listen. 

 
 When we listen to other perspectives, we deepen our connections, not just with those people we interact with, but also with ourselves. As they say, other people can serve as a looking glass to your identity, belief, and values.

  
 
 Cheers to the 100th episode and more to come in the future! It’s amazing how the Fire In The Belly Podcast reached such an unbelievable milestone. So many known successful entrepreneurs, professionals, and influencers took the hot seat and openly shared their lives with everyone since day one.  
 Mighty Pete is more than happy and grateful with what Fire In The Belly has achieved, and he’s not planning to stop anytime soon! This celebration motivates him to look for more interesting people to interview and to make new unique adventures with you.

  
  BEST MOMENTS
  
 “He who asks questions is a fool for five minutes; he who does not ask a question is a fool forever.”

 
 “It’s such a beautiful thing to be able to help someone find that part of themselves—that new shiny free part that tells them that they can just go out and express themselves in the world.” – Crystal Hansen

 
 “What people are looking for comes from the powerful question as well. It’s about asking the right questions and allowing people that time to hear the answer within themselves.” – Pat Slattery 

 
 “That’s what beautiful to what Pete does—he is so gentle and has a non-judgmental spirit.” -Mark Victor Hansen

 
 “It’s more about getting the message out there, getting the wisdom out there, and helping to understand that there is more of they connect to better ideas, better principles, and better ways of living... There’s so much more to life” – Donna Kennedy

      <title>E99: Interview with Energy Alignment Coach and Create Your Vibrant Life Host Padma Ali</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/099-fitb</link>
      <description>Not all would agree, but science and metaphysics, when combined, can give you a more nourishing perspective on life.
 In this episode of the Fire In The Belly Podcast, Mighty Pete talks to Coach, Speaker, and Podcaster Padma Ali, about the powerful results that neuropsychology, energy healing, and inner wisdom can produce. There is a mysterious link that exists that, when acknowledged, can help us create a purpose-driven life and achieve our highest potential. Let Padma give you a thorough discourse on these today.
 Other topics discussed: the benefits of mastering energy alignment, the existence of divine feminine and divine masculine in an individual, the skewed concept of being a high achiever, the life of Indian women, creating your vibrant life, and more.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  
 The metaphysical has always fascinated Padma. She believes we’re all moving energies in this environment. We must think that we alone as individuals must be purposeful when we traverse our journeys as it is like a domino effect—what we do may impact others too.
 Each one of us has a divine masculine and divine feminine in us. Both are vital for creation. The divine feminine is the creator and the visionary while the divine masculine helps to make the change happen. An individual embracing both his divine energies is said to be balanced and unstoppable in reaching greater heights.
 Something isn’t right when something doesn’t feel right. Trust your intuition. It isn’t irrational at all if you base your decision on your ‘gut feel’ because it is you who’s in control of everything in your life. If you’re driven with fear and there’s no motivation, then it would be difficult making positive progress.
 Padma admits she spent her life before as a high achiever/overachiever before experiencing living in alignment. Mostly, it’s because of her upbringing. Padma experienced strict parenting and inequality in society as an Indian woman.  How can you truly live when you’re always worrying about other people’s happiness and their image of you? You can only do so much. You have to mind how you can achieve your own peace and happiness.
  
 Padma is an Energy Alignment Coach. She helps high achievers ‘rediscover themselves and take aligned actions to create powerful results’. The change is matchless and satisfying, she always assures her clients, as she recalls too how very high-strung her environment is before she discovered it.
  BEST MOMENTS
  “I used to be a high achiever, but I no longer subscribe to that terminology.”
 “I’ve continued acquiring knowledge, but not in a traditional sense.”
 “Fire in the belly means being able to access who you truly are beyond what I call myself in this 3d world.”
 “I completely surrender to the power of the divine.”
 “If you’re in alignment, it doesn’t feel like work.”
 “I’m very grateful for the journey that has brought me to this place in life.”

      <itunes:summary>Not all would agree, but science and metaphysics, when combined, can give you a more nourishing perspective on life.
 In this episode of the Fire In The Belly Podcast, Mighty Pete talks to Coach, Speaker, and Podcaster Padma Ali, about the powerful results that neuropsychology, energy healing, and inner wisdom can produce. There is a mysterious link that exists that, when acknowledged, can help us create a purpose-driven life and achieve our highest potential. Let Padma give you a thorough discourse on these today.
 Other topics discussed: the benefits of mastering energy alignment, the existence of divine feminine and divine masculine in an individual, the skewed concept of being a high achiever, the life of Indian women, creating your vibrant life, and more.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  
 The metaphysical has always fascinated Padma. She believes we’re all moving energies in this environment. We must think that we alone as individuals must be purposeful when we traverse our journeys as it is like a domino effect—what we do may impact others too.
 Each one of us has a divine masculine and divine feminine in us. Both are vital for creation. The divine feminine is the creator and the visionary while the divine masculine helps to make the change happen. An individual embracing both his divine energies is said to be balanced and unstoppable in reaching greater heights.
 Something isn’t right when something doesn’t feel right. Trust your intuition. It isn’t irrational at all if you base your decision on your ‘gut feel’ because it is you who’s in control of everything in your life. If you’re driven with fear and there’s no motivation, then it would be difficult making positive progress.
 Padma admits she spent her life before as a high achiever/overachiever before experiencing living in alignment. Mostly, it’s because of her upbringing. Padma experienced strict parenting and inequality in society as an Indian woman.  How can you truly live when you’re always worrying about other people’s happiness and their image of you? You can only do so much. You have to mind how you can achieve your own peace and happiness.

      <title>E98: Interview with Juliane Thomys from ChecKin Health</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/098-fitb</link>
      <description>Let nothing stress you out!
 In this episode of the Fire In The Belly Podcast, let Bio Kinesiology expert Juliane Thomys tell you and help you how you can manage any stress or anxiety you’re feeling so you can be the best you can be in life. Juliane, through ChecKin Health, has helped individuals who deal with traumatic experiences, both in Germany (her hometown) and Northern Ireland. Today, she shares too her personal journey and the wonders of bio kinesiology, a therapy that focuses on movements within our body, to more people in the world.
 You can’t let small things derail you from achieving more. You can get your life back, get that good night's sleep, and improve your overall health through bio kinesiology. Time to listen in, to know more!
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  Being in lockdown for months now might have triggered fear and anxiety for some. We don’t get enough sun; we don’t get to exercise, and we don’t get to see our loved ones. We must do everything to cope with and take care of our mental health. As much as possible, find alternatives that can still lift your spirits. Try out a new hobby or speak to your friends via video call, for example.
 Your emotional and psychological state affects your physical state. Your physical appearance can tell what’s going on inside. So if you’re having a toxic week at work, your body won’t be able to hide it—you get puffy eyes, dull skin, and so on. There is so much more to understand about taking care of our bodies. Juli advises looking after your mental health too.
 What have we learned and what have we not learned? Juliane also shares some memories of her family with the Berlin Wall. As they were stuck in the east (within the Wall) and may not meet the people in the ‘West Germany’, they didn’t really get the truest perspective of what was happening in the entirety of Germany. It was difficult and traumatic.  So, Juliane, who always has a big heart and a passion for learning new things, studied more and also worked as a social worker, hoping that she can bring change to her environment and other people’s lives.
  
 Soon after that, she specialised in Bio Kinesiology. She experienced this great healing journey when she was going through a divorce. She had zero knowledge of it but she knew she needed help so she just went for it. The divorce was one of the most traumatic things in her life; she didn’t even imagine she could get past it.  It’s kinesiology (out of all the usual therapy out there) that improved her outlook on life. Never has she been so carefree and hopeful for her future. There is no more struggling with anxiety. And more importantly, maintaining a healthier body condition is now possible.
  
  BEST MOMENTS
  “All body processes (digestions, healing, resting, etc.) are dramatically affected by trauma and stress.”
 “When you’re just not so sure about yourself when you don’t follow that voice when you don’t know who you really are… I think that’s what our 20s are for—figuring them all out. And when you have them all figured out, you feel so much stronger.”
 “Walk quietly and carry a big stick.” 
 “When I see injustice or someone being bullied, my heart goes out to them”
 “It almost feels like I need to educate all of us because we didn’t have access to it.”

        <![CDATA[<p>Let nothing stress you out!</p> <p>In this episode of the Fire In The Belly Podcast, let Bio Kinesiology expert Juliane Thomys tell you and help you how you can manage any stress or anxiety you’re feeling so you can be the best you can be in life. Juliane, through ChecKin Health, has helped individuals who deal with traumatic experiences, both in Germany (her hometown) and Northern Ireland. Today, she shares too her personal journey and the wonders of bio kinesiology, a therapy that focuses on movements within our body, to more people in the world.</p> <p>You can’t let small things derail you from achieving more. You can get your life back, get that good night's sleep, and improve your overall health through bio kinesiology. Time to listen in, to know more!</p> <p><strong>KEY TAKEAWAYS</strong></p> <ul> <li>Being in lockdown for months now might have triggered fear and anxiety for some. We don’t get enough sun; we don’t get to exercise, and we don’t get to see our loved ones. We must do everything to cope with and take care of our mental health. As much as possible, find alternatives that can still lift your spirits. Try out a new hobby or speak to your friends via video call, for example.</li> <li>Your emotional and psychological state affects your physical state. Your physical appearance can tell what’s going on inside. So if you’re having a toxic week at work, your body won’t be able to hide it—you get puffy eyes, dull skin, and so on. There is so much more to understand about taking care of our bodies. Juli advises looking after your mental health too.</li> <li>What have we learned and what have we not learned? Juliane also shares some memories of her family with the Berlin Wall. As they were stuck in the east (within the Wall) and may not meet the people in the ‘West Germany’, they didn’t really get the truest perspective of what was happening in the entirety of Germany. It was difficult and traumatic. <ul> <li>So, Juliane, who always has a big heart and a passion for learning new things, studied more and also worked as a social worker, hoping that she can bring change to her environment and other people’s lives.</li> </ul> </li> <li>Soon after that, she specialised in Bio Kinesiology. She experienced this great healing journey when she was going through a divorce. She had zero knowledge of it but she knew she needed help so she just went for it. The divorce was one of the most traumatic things in her life; she didn’t even imagine she could get past it. <ul> <li>It’s kinesiology (out of all the usual therapy out there) that improved her outlook on life. Never has she been so carefree and hopeful for her future. There is no more struggling with anxiety. And more importantly, maintaining a healthier body condition is now possible.</li> </ul> </li> </ul> <p><strong>BEST MOMENTS</strong></p> <ul> <li><em>“All body processes (digestions, healing, resting, etc.) are dramatically affected by trauma and stress.”</em></li> <li><em>“When you’re just not so sure about yourself when you don’t follow that voice when you don’t know who you really are… I think that’s what our 20s are for—figuring them all out. And when you have them all figured out, you feel so much stronger.”</em></li> <li><em>“Walk quietly and carry a big stick.” </em></li> <li><em>“When I see injustice or someone being bullied, my heart goes out to them”</em></li> <li><em>“It almost feels like I need to educate all of us because we didn’t have access to it.”</em></li> </ul> <p><strong>VALUABLE RESOURCES</strong></p> <ul> <li>Know more about ChecKin Health Bio Kinesiology Leitrem an Schedule a free call: <a href="https://www.checkinhealth.co.uk/">https://www.checkinhealth.co.uk/</a>

      <title>E97: Interview with Break Up to Wake Up Coach, Jocelyn Bellows</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/097-fitb</link>
      <description>“Every Break Up is a Wake-Up call. After all, it’s called break up, not a breakdown,” – Allen Martin.
 In this episode of the Fire In The Belly Podcast, Mighty Pete talks to Speaker, Coach, and Podcast Host Jocelyn Bellows to talk about her personal journey and her passion for helping other people to recover and heal from anything that’s limiting them from achieving greatness. 
 Being in a toxic environment or experiencing obstacles isn’t new for Jocelyn. She had to deal with a lot of hiccups whilst reaching for the top. Listen in to Mighty Pete and Break Up To Wake Up Coach Jocelyn as they go through some stories and life strategies, just for you!
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  
 Communication is the key to maintaining healthy relationships. And every person differs on how they handle conflicts and/or express themselves to others. If you want to understand the other person, then listen attentively and always respond with empathy.  
 We may have loved ones who show affection or support in different ways. Maybe we expect them to give gifts, or just to be there for you. We can’t change their love language. What we can do is communicate well what our hearts really want.

  
 
 Jocelyn was always keen on knowing who she is—what is her personal identity? It was difficult for her to find the real First, she had a very distant relationship with her parents and siblings. And second, Jocelyn spent most of her younger days not knowing what to call her ‘home’ since she was moving a lot.

 
 So, when Jocelyn became more self-aware and could express her self-identity freely, she realised how fruitful her path could be. She knows now how to nurture her relationships. None of the co-dependence and toxicity that she experienced before is present.

 
 Empower yourself so you can change your life as well as others’ lives. Don’t let your past unpleasant experience and/or trauma ruin the present and the bright future ahead. You can overcome those limiting beliefs and achieve greatness too. 

  BEST MOMENTS
  
 “It’s that ember that keeps you going, even at your lowest point.”

 
 “It may be dark, cold, and terrifying, but you have it inside of you.”

 
 “It’s all about connection—connection to your, other people, and the universe. Universal love is there.”

 
 “I was a victim my entire life. But I’m not a victim anymore. I created this [success]”

      <title>E96: Interview with Elliot Connor, Founder and CEO of Human Nature Projects</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/096-fitb</link>
      <description>Age is really just a number! Our guest today is a 17-year-old Changemaker and Conservationist, Elliot Connor. Elliot is also the founder of an international environmental NGO called Human Nature Projects.
 In this episode of the Fire In The Belly Podcast, he shares his visions, his journey as a young leader, some of his obscure animal encounters, and how he balances his school, his advocacies, and some leisurely time.
 One of Elliot’s life goals is to bring awareness to how nature should be treated fairly by humans. We act like everything around us exists to be expended and nothing more. Humans aren’t superior creatures. There aren’t any superior creatures. 
 Let’s listen to know more about this now!
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  
 Are humans opportunists? Are we like rats that exploit what other living creatures have and produce?  
 Nature can only be preserved if humans know how to coexist with other living things. Every action we make matter, so let’s aim to generate positive ripple effects. We must live purposefully and do our job to ensure mutual give and take.

  
 
 Develop an unshakeable self-belief. Self-belief can be boosted when you look deep internally and find out what you’re truly fighting for. We can never move forward when we doubt ourselves and be fearful of others' opinions. Let your body move according to how your heart thumps. So, what is your life’s purpose?   
 No one would ever think a 16-year-old would start a global environmental NGO (non-government organization). The society wasn’t ready for a teen to bring environmental issues to the forefront. But look at where he and his organisation are right now. They’ve done massive influence and are now operating in 104 countries.

 
 Among other speaking engagements that Elliot has hosted, his TEDx Talk on ‘Evolution and how to save the world’ is probably the most iconic one. He confidently discussed developing a sustainable society, a human’s role in the environment, and Darwin’s 5 Theories of Evolution in front of hundreds of people.

  
 
 Preventive and reactive environmental practices. As much as possible, we want to eliminate, not just reduce harm to our environment and the living creatures. For companies, organisations, and even as individuals, we must assess how much we contribute to the degradation of our environment. Assess, strategize, and implement. We must think long-term and consider preventive approaches more.

 
 Unleash the power of storytelling. This is the most powerful tool to utilise when you want to effectively make a change. People lend their ears to your advocacy campaigns when they see that there’s an interesting narrative to follow. Make your stories compelling, so you can attract more donors and more environmental warriors.

  BEST MOMENTS
  
 “The system’s not set up for a minor to start an international environmental NGO.”

 
 “The idea is if we can all have that connection to nature... I’d be incredibly lucky of my few works in the space.”

 
 “All you can do is try. And that’s what I’m doing.”

 
 “We have to learn from other creatures how to embrace our instinctive habitual characteristics.”

      <itunes:summary>Age is really just a number! Our guest today is a 17-year-old Changemaker and Conservationist, Elliot Connor. Elliot is also the founder of an international environmental NGO called Human Nature Projects.
 In this episode of the Fire In The Belly Podcast, he shares his visions, his journey as a young leader, some of his obscure animal encounters, and how he balances his school, his advocacies, and some leisurely time.
 One of Elliot’s life goals is to bring awareness to how nature should be treated fairly by humans. We act like everything around us exists to be expended and nothing more. Humans aren’t superior creatures. There aren’t any superior creatures. 
 Let’s listen to know more about this now!
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  
 Are humans opportunists? Are we like rats that exploit what other living creatures have and produce?  
 Nature can only be preserved if humans know how to coexist with other living things. Every action we make matter, so let’s aim to generate positive ripple effects. We must live purposefully and do our job to ensure mutual give and take.

  
 
 Develop an unshakeable self-belief. Self-belief can be boosted when you look deep internally and find out what you’re truly fighting for. We can never move forward when we doubt ourselves and be fearful of others' opinions. Let your body move according to how your heart thumps. So, what is your life’s purpose?   
 No one would ever think a 16-year-old would start a global environmental NGO (non-government organization). The society wasn’t ready for a teen to bring environmental issues to the forefront. But look at where he and his organisation are right now. They’ve done massive influence and are now operating in 104 countries.

 
 Among other speaking engagements that Elliot has hosted, his TEDx Talk on ‘Evolution and how to save the world’ is probably the most iconic one. He confidently discussed developing a sustainable society, a human’s role in the environment, and Darwin’s 5 Theories of Evolution in front of hundreds of people.

  
 
 Preventive and reactive environmental practices. As much as possible, we want to eliminate, not just reduce harm to our environment and the living creatures. For companies, organisations, and even as individuals, we must assess how much we contribute to the degradation of our environment. Assess, strategize, and implement. We must think long-term and consider preventive approaches more.

 
 Unleash the power of storytelling. This is the most powerful tool to utilise when you want to effectively make a change. People lend their ears to your advocacy campaigns when they see that there’s an interesting narrative to follow. Make your stories compelling, so you can attract more donors and more environmental warriors.

  BEST MOMENTS
  
 “The system’s not set up for a minor to start an international environmental NGO.”

 
 “The idea is if we can all have that connection to nature... I’d be incredibly lucky of my few works in the space.”

 
 “All you can do is try. And that’s what I’m doing.”

 
 “We have to learn from other creatures how to embrace our instinctive habitual characteristics.”

      <title>E95: Interview with Roman Prokopchuk</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/095-fitb</link>
      <description>It’s true. Experience is the best teacher of life lessons. 
 In this episode of the Fire In The Belly Podcast, Mighty Pete talks to Roman Prokopchuk about how he unexpectedly discovered (and thrived in) digital marketing, how he sees fulfilment in foster parenting, and how fascinating his journey is as an immigrant (from Ukraine) in the United States.  
 Roman’s success didn’t come from luck, for sure—it was always pure hard work since the start. He wouldn’t accomplish anything if he hadn’t learnt to persevere and be resilient. If only people knew about these and other entrepreneurial qualities like ‘grit’, then they’d achieve or even just get closer to their goals too. 
 Get ready to be inspired when you listen in to ‘Digital Savage’ Roman and Mighty Pete today!
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  
 It shouldn’t be an issue when things don’t go as planned. A resilient and quick-witted individual wouldn’t have any problem with unforeseen diversions, even in career.   
 For example, digital marketing isn’t the path that Ronan was hoping for, but out of necessity, he had to explore the industry. Luckily, through hard work and determination, he was able to develop a skill set that advanced his career.

  
 
 Aside from being busy with his business, Ronan is a very hands-on foster parent. Ronan sees that he spends enough time with all his foster children because as much as possible, he wants the kids to feel at home and to be better individuals.  
 During the pandemic, it has been difficult to schedule visitations with kids’ legal guardians since face-to-face interactions are prohibited. So, he and his partner had to set everything up online for the kids. It was challenging but very rewarding, according to Ronan.

  
 
 Soft skills over hard skills. Ronan prefers a team player who is passionate and driven even with less technical skills over a team player who has an impressive resume but very low enthusiasm about the job position. The willingness of someone to achieve the same aim as yours is very important.

 
 Grit is everything you need; the root cause of it all. It’s the most vital factor to achieve success. It’s also about being not ashamed of your past traumas and being confident of who you are. Because success is not about the luck or talents, it’s about persevering even there’s little to no chance of winning.

  BEST MOMENTS
  
 “Fire in the belly is about resilience and grit.”

 
 “If you really want to do it, you’ll find time for it even though you’re busy.”

 
 “Everything in life is a lesson or a blessing.”

 
 “Do what you’re doing to the best of your ability because you don’t know who’s watching.”

 
 “You can’t control what happens around you. You can only deal with what you have.”

      <title>E94: Interview with Shark Professional and Behaviourist, Cristina Zenato</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/interview-with-shark-professional-and-behaviourist</link>
      <description>Who knew sharks could be friends?
 Today will be an exciting episode as we learn more about sharks, marine life, and the role of humans in protecting them.
 Our guest Cristina Zenato is a Diver, Conservationist, Cave Explorer, and Shark Professional. She has lived in the Bahamas for years now and has been very active in bringing change to people’s views and interaction with the aquatic world for the better. Sharks are very misunderstood creatures, Cristina says. Listen to this episode of the Fire In The Belly Podcast as she shares more about her ‘friends’, her advocacy, some personal stories, and her career journey!   
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  Activate your ‘Do not disturb’ mode. Sometimes, we have to be wary about what we let in and out of our system. Maybe keeping a distance from external influences (e.g. social media) from time to time will help you focus on things that matter to you.
 She remembers how difficult it was for a female like her to grow up in Italy. Decades ago, people still thought that women’s existence was just for fertility, beauty, and men. Though she didn’t let it stop her from pursuing a degree and appreciate continuous learning.
 Protect oceans, sharks, and caves. This is Cristina’s lifelong advocacy. Together with her non-profit organisation People of the Water, they bring awareness to how people should treat the aquatic world and other environmental issues.
 It isn’t easy to get people jumping in your cause instantly. Cristina has seen advocates and activists get aggressive when they present their ideals. Acting like you have the moral high ground will not help you and your advocacies. Showing them how beneficial it is to them and the world will. You can start by sharing how your own little actions made positive results.
 “Sharks are the most innocent creatures I’ve ever met in my life.” – Cristina Zenato  Cristina dedicated most of her life to studying sharks. Not just reading on textbooks, but actually swimming, observing, and even petting them.
 Sharks are large carnivorous animals so it’s just normal that people get terrified. But there is more that we can learn and do to also help in shark conservation. Cristina wants you to learn more about the true image of these creatures because they are significantly misunderstood.
 Our obligation as humans is not to disturb the marine ecosystem and make the oceans habitable for them and other creatures. This is what Cristina is most passionate about.
  
  BEST MOMENTS
  “I have created a life that which every day I call an expedition.”
 “There are no monsters under the sea; they are just what you make up in your head.”
 “When you love someone, you don’t want them to suffer.”
 “I keep absorbing, and I keep learning.”
 “Focus on your passion.”

      <title>E93: Interview with The Happiness Helper, Chloe Hirst</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/093-fitb</link>
      <description>Is there really a one-shoe-fits-all formula for happiness?
 In this episode of Fire In The Belly Podcast, Mighty Pete talks to Chloe Hirst, the Founder of The Happiness Helper, about how we can live a more meaningful and zestful life.
 When we’re in pursuit of happiness, it’s important to set goals. Most will just talk about ‘pursuing your passion’ or ‘living life to the fullest’, but Chloe wants to be logical as much as possible. You need to set goals, stray away from distractions, and practice gratitude, aside from listening to your heart alone.
 Chloe Hirst wants you to be practical and intentional in everything you do as much as possible. Listen to the Happiness Helper today and learn more!                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                       
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  Is there a happiness formula? Chloe believes that more gratitude and less likelihood of getting fazed by societal norms means a more zestful life. Chloe can’t emphasize this enough. You don’t need to absorb every criticism thrown at you. It’s your path you got to manoeuvre; you’re in control.
 One reason that may have hindered you from reaching or even seeing your happiness too much distraction. Last year (2019), the UK recorded 45 million active social media users, and the average user spends at least 1 hour and 50 minutes a day on social media. That’s a lot of time that could’ve been spent on more important tasks.
 Chloe emphasises that we should aim for long-lasting happiness and satisfaction, not for instant gratification. Always be intentional every time you do something. Of course, social media has its benefits—you can communicate with your loved ones and your business network, for example, but be mindful and keep it in moderation.
 Chloe’s mantra for a happy life: Always listen to what your heart wants; that’s what will lead you to a happy life. We need to live a purposeful life, so if you need to reflect on it, start now. Everything else will follow when you know what you truly desire.
 No man is an island. Many still don’t see the benefits of having mentors and coaches in their life. Sometimes, it takes an expert in your field or someone who has gone through a similar journey to yours to show what needs to be done.
   
 BEST MOMENTS
  
 “A massive thing about coaching is…people need that person. People need accountability.”

 
 “If you don’t appreciate it, there is no point to it.”

 
 “Confidence in yourself in being, in who you are as a person is fundamental in happiness.”

 
 “You could be good at something and it doesn’t have to be your passion.”

 Chloe Hirst wants you to be practical and intentional in everything you do as much as possible. Listen to the Happiness Helper today and learn more!                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                       
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  Is there a happiness formula? Chloe believes that more gratitude and less likelihood of getting fazed by societal norms means a more zestful life. Chloe can’t emphasize this enough. You don’t need to absorb every criticism thrown at you. It’s your path you got to manoeuvre; you’re in control.
 One reason that may have hindered you from reaching or even seeing your happiness too much distraction. Last year (2019), the UK recorded 45 million active social media users, and the average user spends at least 1 hour and 50 minutes a day on social media. That’s a lot of time that could’ve been spent on more important tasks.
 Chloe emphasises that we should aim for long-lasting happiness and satisfaction, not for instant gratification. Always be intentional every time you do something. Of course, social media has its benefits—you can communicate with your loved ones and your business network, for example, but be mindful and keep it in moderation.
 Chloe’s mantra for a happy life: Always listen to what your heart wants; that’s what will lead you to a happy life. We need to live a purposeful life, so if you need to reflect on it, start now. Everything else will follow when you know what you truly desire.
 No man is an island. Many still don’t see the benefits of having mentors and coaches in their life. Sometimes, it takes an expert in your field or someone who has gone through a similar journey to yours to show what needs to be done.
   
 BEST MOMENTS
  
 “A massive thing about coaching is…people need that person. People need accountability.”

 
 “If you don’t appreciate it, there is no point to it.”

 
 “Confidence in yourself in being, in who you are as a person is fundamental in happiness.”

 
 “You could be good at something and it doesn’t have to be your passion.”

      <title>E92: Interview with Rick Jordan, CEO &amp; Founder of ReachOut Technology</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/092-fitb</link>
      <description>After experiencing a near-death experience, our guest, Rick Jordan, promised himself that he would take control of his life more effectively. This was able to fully enjoy it with his family and also spend more time helping other people. Today, Rick shares more about this power of control he has harnessed, cybersecurity in business, the importance of balance and moderation, ethics, and more. 
 Start tuning in to this episode of Fire In The Belly Podcast to get inspired!
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  Everything should be taken in moderation. This advice not only applies in health but also in relationships—especially if we want to nurture the long-term ones. Rick is a compassionate person. And sometimes, he thinks that this has also caused him and the other people harm.  When we’re too empathetic, bad people take advantage of it. This will not be beneficial to either of you.
  
 Rick puts an interesting perspective on the meaning of ‘fire in the belly’. Rick believes that it is something that keeps you going and doing to get to whatever the destination is. It’s involuntary, uncontrollable. You go for something as long as you don’t feel content—as long as you don’t feel fulfilled. That’s how the fire in the belly functions.
 Believe in your power and take control of your life. It’s easy to achieve your goals or even just tick off tasks on your checklist when you take responsibility and set your boundaries. We also vanish uncertainties and our fears when we just go for it. Get educated and strategise your life.
 Rick is one of the most trusted voices in cybersecurity. It isn’t a new practice per se, but companies have a hard time utilising this (and other IT services). Rick is here to help you optimise its valuable impact on the growth of your company.
  BEST MOMENTS
  
 “It’s those tragedies that will lead you into things that are extremely positive.”

 
 “Compassion is my superpower and my kryptonite at the same time.”

 
 “Trying to be someone who you’re not and trying to be other people is not something anybody should try to do.”

 
 “Educating yourself does actually work. You have to go out and desire for more knowledge to improve whatever area in your life.”

 
 “I have complete control over the outcome that I want.”

 
 “Everything is permissible but not everything is beneficial.”

      <title>E30: Interview with Cliona O’Hara, Senior Inner Circle Coach for Bob Proctor</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/091-fitb</link>
      <description>“My purpose is to help others find out their purpose and live to their truest and fullest potential in life. That's why I'm here.” – Cliona O’Hara
 In this episode of the Fire In The Belly Podcast, Mighty Pete talks to Cliona O’Hara, a Senior Inner Circle Coach for Bob Proctor, about her success story. Moving to the US (from Derry) was something she never expected that would turn out great. She was able to establish her own business, make a name for herself as a coach, and still continuously help people achieve their own goals. Cliona is unstoppable. Know today what made her this formidable and how she pursued her genuine passion, personal development!
 Other topics discussed were: the power of tapping into your intuition, The Secret, autonomy inside the company, recovering from trauma, and many more.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  For Cliona, her motivation to strive harder is rooted in her tough childhood. Her family isn’t what you’d call perfect, and they also weren’t well off. She was aware of this and has wanted to escape. And so, she did everything to have a successful future.
 Cliona worked to earn extra money when she was a teenager. She sold uniforms when she was 12 and worked in a fashion store when she was around 15. It was hard work but she learnt so much from those around her.
 Go for the gold, always! When Cliona knew she wanted to set up her own business, there was no way of stopping her. She learned a lot when she worked and observed her mother grow their business. She sought for more resources and more mentors to learn from. They were all helpful, but it’s ‘The Secret’ that changed her life.
 The book came to her life at the right time—a time when she needed a miracle. She was recovering from a traumatic event and was feeling lost. The Secret was an eye-opener, the beginning of manifesting everything fulfilling in her life. It changed her mind set and her beliefs instantly for the better.
 As a very hands-on business owner, she sees that there’s autonomy. She wants her employees to be independent and resilient so they will be ready with whatever problem is thrown at them that day. Also, she wants to help them be better people too for themselves and their loved ones.
 Tune into your intuition. It’s what will lead you to ‘your’ path.For example, Cliona was always an Empath. It’s easy for her to communicate, whether it be to her team, her clients, or anyone. And she felt that this gift of hers must be shared with others too so everyone can also learn more about personal development and achieve more in life.
  BEST MOMENTS
  
 “I believe we, as humans, we're here to serve. We're here to serve each other and leave this earth better off.”

 
 “Challenges will pull the best out of you.”

 
 “I believe in autonomy and I believe people should be left to figure it out on their own and if they need help, ask for help.”

 
 “Like I said, if I don't know something or I'm not sure, I just ask and I get the answer right away. When I get quiet within myself, when I ask God for the answer, I get the answer right away.”

      <itunes:summary>“My purpose is to help others find out their purpose and live to their truest and fullest potential in life. That's why I'm here.” – Cliona O’Hara
 In this episode of the Fire In The Belly Podcast, Mighty Pete talks to Cliona O’Hara, a Senior Inner Circle Coach for Bob Proctor, about her success story. Moving to the US (from Derry) was something she never expected that would turn out great. She was able to establish her own business, make a name for herself as a coach, and still continuously help people achieve their own goals. Cliona is unstoppable. Know today what made her this formidable and how she pursued her genuine passion, personal development!
 Other topics discussed were: the power of tapping into your intuition, The Secret, autonomy inside the company, recovering from trauma, and many more.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  For Cliona, her motivation to strive harder is rooted in her tough childhood. Her family isn’t what you’d call perfect, and they also weren’t well off. She was aware of this and has wanted to escape. And so, she did everything to have a successful future.
 Cliona worked to earn extra money when she was a teenager. She sold uniforms when she was 12 and worked in a fashion store when she was around 15. It was hard work but she learnt so much from those around her.
 Go for the gold, always! When Cliona knew she wanted to set up her own business, there was no way of stopping her. She learned a lot when she worked and observed her mother grow their business. She sought for more resources and more mentors to learn from. They were all helpful, but it’s ‘The Secret’ that changed her life.
 The book came to her life at the right time—a time when she needed a miracle. She was recovering from a traumatic event and was feeling lost. The Secret was an eye-opener, the beginning of manifesting everything fulfilling in her life. It changed her mind set and her beliefs instantly for the better.

      <title>E90: Interview with Siobhan O'Brien</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/090-fitb</link>
      <description>Music is Life, do you agree? 
 We’ve heard of this adage over and over again, but today on the Fire In The Belly Podcast, we put a new meaning to it. Our guest, Siobhan O'Brien, talks about her latest album ‘You Can’t Run Out of Love’, how she made it, and how it talks about the beauty of ‘change’ and phases in our lives. Siobhan has had so many ups and downs in life (which she also gladly shares in the episode) and she was hoping that through her love for music, she can inspire more people to take the leap and be unafraid to live the life they deserve.
 Listen in to know more about Siobhan’s works and journey as a musician now!
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  The King’s Fool. Siobhan can’t even imagine how she lived her life 5 years ago—she was souninspired with no big plans for the future. Siobhan spent time evaluating herself and found a great passion for music and this led her to where she is now. She has vowed never go back to that kind of state again.
 Siobhan O’Brien just released her reassuring latest album, You Can’t Run Out of Love. This album talks about changes, transitioning, progress, and phases that we all experience. It’s about life and living.
 If you think you have the talent, then use it to help or support others. It gives Siobhan so much pleasure and fulfilment when she sees people come to her performance and hear how her music speaks to them. As long as she has the means, she’ll write, she’ll sing, and she’ll inspire people.
 Her strength in connecting with people through her music may have been influenced by her belief that everything is connected. She recognises that there is universal energy that exists in between things. Distance, separation, or space are nothing but terms and are illusionary. When you think of it, we are all one, if not just interconnected.
  BEST MOMENTS
  
 “If you don’t see how ridiculous everything is right now, I don’t think you’ll ever want ‘change’.” 

 
 “We have not been taught to be just still and silent. We were taught to always get moving.”

 
 “If I have that ‘gift’, I have to give that out.”

 
 “We can all stand together against evil.”

 
 “Allow your children to daydream.”

        <![CDATA[<p><strong>Music is Life, do you agree? </strong></p> <p><strong>We’ve heard of this adage over and over again, but today on the Fire In The Belly Podcast, we put a new meaning to it. Our guest, Siobhan O'Brien, talks about her latest album ‘You Can’t Run Out of Love’, how she made it, and how it talks about the beauty of ‘change’ and phases in our lives. Siobhan has had so many ups and downs in life (which she also gladly shares in the episode) and she was hoping that through her love for music, she can inspire more people to take the leap and be unafraid to live the life they deserve.</strong></p> <p><strong>Listen in to know more about Siobhan’s works and journey as a musician now!</strong></p> <p><strong>KEY TAKEAWAYS</strong></p> <ul> <li>The King’s Fool. Siobhan can’t even imagine how she lived her life 5 years ago—she was souninspired with no big plans for the future. Siobhan spent time evaluating herself and found a great passion for music and this led her to where she is now. She has vowed never go back to that kind of state again.</li> <li>Siobhan O’Brien just released her reassuring latest album, <em>You Can’t Run Out of Love</em>. This album talks about changes, transitioning, progress, and phases that we all experience. It’s about life and living.</li> <li>If you think you have the talent, then use it to help or support others. It gives Siobhan so much pleasure and fulfilment when she sees people come to her performance and hear how her music speaks to them. As long as she has the means, she’ll write, she’ll sing, and she’ll inspire people.</li> <li>Her strength in connecting with people through her music may have been influenced by her belief that everything is connected. She recognises that there is universal energy that exists in between things. Distance, separation, or space are nothing but terms and are illusionary. When you think of it, we are all one, if not just interconnected.</li> </ul> <p><strong>BEST MOMENTS</strong></p> <ul> <li>
<strong> </strong><strong><em>“If you don’t see how ridiculous everything is right now, I don’t think you’ll ever want ‘change’.” </em></strong>
</li> <li>
<strong> </strong><strong><em>“We have not been taught to be just still and silent. We were taught to always get moving.”</em></strong>

      <title>E89: Autism and Special Parenting - Interview with Jude Morrow, Author, and Speaker</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/089-fitb</link>
      <description>What’s life’s like be for an autistic person when they grow older?
 Our guest for today on the Fire In The Belly Podcast, is Jude Morrow, a Speaker, an Author, and a Social Worker whose advocacy is to bring awareness to autism.
 Jude is diagnosed with Asperger Type Autism. And if he’s being honest, he’s experienced the unkindness in this world because of having such condition. So, in this episode, he puts everything into perspective for people like him, their families, and everyone else who just wants to be informed about it. 
 There should be no need to exclude anyone. People with autism can have a happy family, careers and successful businesses too! Get inspired when you tune in.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  
 The worst feeling in the world is to be treated as an outcast. This is what living with autism has been like in this society for most, Jude has experienced it first-hand.   
 Autistic people are different, but they deserve to have a normal life too. If more would learn more about autism, it would be easy for them to adjust to their environment. 

  
 
 Jude is lucky to have found his voice now to bring awareness about autism. He has been using different platforms – books, blogs, speaking events, podcasts, etc. If you feel you know little, then approach experts and/or seek for resources.

 
 Jude believes his strength as a social worker is having a sensible discernment on things presented in front of him. Listen to your emotional heart and your logical mind. It has to be BOTH. 

 
 Aside from maintaining a successful and fulfilling career, Jude is also a hands-on parent to his wonderful kid, Ethan. This is something other people don’t believe that can happen. An autistic parent is no different from a normal parent at all. They both can equally provide for the needs of their child.
  BEST MOMENTS
  
 “Autism… is not a disease that needs to be cured.”

 
 “I am always good at working with people because I can see things objectively.”

 
 “I just wanted to be anyone else; I just wanted to be part of the gang.”

 
 “My brain only goes at two speeds and it’s in the speed of light which is 186,282 miles per second or ‘stop/sleep’.”

      <title>E88: Interview with Antra Boyd, a Registered Nurse Patient Advocate</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/antra-boyd</link>
      <description>“If I just show up and just be me… then what’s not to love?” – Antra Boyd
 Antra, the Co-Owner of the Connected Care Patient Advocates, is ready to inspire everyone tuning in on this episode of the Fire In The Belly Podcast. She talks to Mighty Pete about her chaotically fun childhood, her career journey (including her service to the military), and the number of testimonials from the people she has helped through her company. 
 The healthcare system can be confusing for many. It can make it difficult for patients to maximise the help or treatment they’re getting if they don’t get given enough information. Antra is very passionate about this. With her knowledge and experience in the medical field, she makes sure each person gets the right support and guidance. Let’s listen in to know more about Antra’s advocacy today.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  
  When you have grown up with nine siblings and you’re also the eldest, then it’s not surprising that you are feisty yet dependable. Antra had a very interesting childhood. She learned how to be independent and adapt to her family situation early on. 
   Sometimes, life does not require you to try hard or work hard; sometimes, it just wants you to show up. Antra realised that just being present in the moment can often be the only way to help yourself and others. 
   
Would you be okay despite…? Antra has learned how to be accepting, resilient, and hopeful no matter what life throws at her. Previously she always thought she was going nowhere because of her past traumas. This was not true at all. Be okay with not being always okay. There will be so many doors that will open for you, just you wait.
   There’s so much going on during a patient’s recovery period, not only physically but mentally. You have understand them, to help them heal. It’s key that medical practitioners offer genuine support as well as their medical expertise to patients to achieve wellness.
   Antra and her team ensure that each person is informed, get the best treatment, and don’t get stressed out by the technical stuff and the confusing healthcare system. As a surgical nurse, who understands the medical language, she wants to act as the intermediary and make everything comprehensible to each person.
   
 BEST MOMENTS
  
  “I was living my entire life through ‘fight or flight, and I was so stressed.”
   “If I don’t know the answer, it should occur to me to find the answer.”
   “If only people learn not to be afraid of their experience, that alone will change the world.”

      <itunes:summary>“If I just show up and just be me… then what’s not to love?” – Antra Boyd
 Antra, the Co-Owner of the Connected Care Patient Advocates, is ready to inspire everyone tuning in on this episode of the Fire In The Belly Podcast. She talks to Mighty Pete about her chaotically fun childhood, her career journey (including her service to the military), and the number of testimonials from the people she has helped through her company. 
 The healthcare system can be confusing for many. It can make it difficult for patients to maximise the help or treatment they’re getting if they don’t get given enough information. Antra is very passionate about this. With her knowledge and experience in the medical field, she makes sure each person gets the right support and guidance. Let’s listen in to know more about Antra’s advocacy today.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  
  When you have grown up with nine siblings and you’re also the eldest, then it’s not surprising that you are feisty yet dependable. Antra had a very interesting childhood. She learned how to be independent and adapt to her family situation early on. 
   Sometimes, life does not require you to try hard or work hard; sometimes, it just wants you to show up. Antra realised that just being present in the moment can often be the only way to help yourself and others. 
   
Would you be okay despite…? Antra has learned how to be accepting, resilient, and hopeful no matter what life throws at her. Previously she always thought she was going nowhere because of her past traumas. This was not true at all. Be okay with not being always okay. There will be so many doors that will open for you, just you wait.
   There’s so much going on during a patient’s recovery period, not only physically but mentally. You have understand them, to help them heal. It’s key that medical practitioners offer genuine support as well as their medical expertise to patients to achieve wellness.
   Antra and her team ensure that each person is informed, get the best treatment, and don’t get stressed out by the technical stuff and the confusing healthcare system. As a surgical nurse, who understands the medical language, she wants to act as the intermediary and make everything comprehensible to each person.
   
 BEST MOMENTS
  
  “I was living my entire life through ‘fight or flight, and I was so stressed.”
   “If I don’t know the answer, it should occur to me to find the answer.”
   “If only people learn not to be afraid of their experience, that alone will change the world.”
   “We all have this innate knowingness.”

      <title>E87: Jeannette Linfoot</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/jeanette-lindfoot</link>
      <description>From the travel/leisure sector to property investing to entrepreneurship, our guest Jeannette Linfoot has invaluable things to share. Jeannette proves to be a one-of-a-kind resource person as well as an incredibly successful woman in business to look up to. Listen to her career and businesses in detail, as well as intriguing personal stories on this episode of Fire in The Belly.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  Jeannette wants to help all women excel in business. She has vast business experience including being the CEO in a large travel company. She has experienced (almost) everything in the corporate playbook and is fully aware many things need to be changed within the system. Also, there are things that we also need to learn so we can advance in our journey confidently.  She adds that there are more women in the property world since it’s more flexible (because of parenthood, homemaking, etc.) compared to the corporate world.
 In the travel industry, there tends to be more female (around 65%) because of their traditional preference that cabin crews, travel agents, etc. be women. But when we take a look at their middle and senior management, the number of women in position is still noticeably low. Men still dominate the management positions.
  
 A business should have a strategic agenda to ensure business growth and also maintain a healthy organisational structure. If one intentionally aims for a diverse board of management and/or thoroughly built a pipeline, policies, and plans, then there’s nowhere to go but up.
 An indestructible mindset is the real deal. Work on yourself inside out so you can get the results you’re aiming for. According to Jeannette, our values and beliefs are entrenched to our behaviours and attitude around everything, including wealth. So, if you already believe that you’re meant for it, then you are.
 Jeannette is a mentor as well as a mentee. It has made a massive difference in her life to have someone guide her in decision making, so she wants to do the same for others. She shares that there’s so much fulfilment in seeing someone flourish and see their optimum potential.
  BEST MOMENTS
  “We bring different things to the party and is absolutely no reason whether you're female, gay, straight, black, white, that you shouldn't be able to be in a very senior role in any organisation.”
 “And so, I think the mindset is at the heart of absolutely everything. It's everything in life, not just in business, career, relationships.”
 “It can blow you off track… I think if you're overly concerned about where everyone else is thinking about you and your ego. What really matters is what's inside and what of you people that are close to you, your loved ones, think.”
 “It’s much more agile learning from someone’s [a mentor’s] life and their business experience. They may have tried a similar path to yours”

      <title>E86: Interview with Award-winning Actor and Body Positivity Coach Kate Huffman</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/interview-with-award-winning-actor-and-body-positi</link>
      <description>You’re not too fat or too skinny for anything in this world! Stop letting other people dictate what you should do with your body!
 In this episode of the Fire In The Belly Podcast, we listen to Award-winning actress and Body Positivity Coach Kate Huffman debunk the unrealistic standards on beauty and fitness. Kate shares her own experience with anorexia and depression which were caused by fat-shaming when she was young. Today, she wants everyone, especially women, to know that your body appearance does not dictate your self-worth! Learn more about body positivity when you listen in now.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  
  Some people think they can determine the state of one’s health based on appearance alone. You can’t. Stop fat-shaming (and fit shaming) other people just because their bodies do not conform to your preference. We must always interact and live our lives with compassion.
   As parents and/or shapers of young minds, we must be wary of what we tell our children when it comes to physical appearance. Teach body neutrality instead. There is no right body type. 
   When we let other people’s, judgments influence us, we tend to degrade ourselves. Our mental health suffers—we feel shame, anxiety, and loneliness which may lead to depression and/or eating disorders. Just know that there are various body types, and ALL of them have a place in this society. No one should feel excluded.
   It’s funny how women’s value is anchored to physical appearance. The beauty industry mostly offers products that cater to society norms—for example, products for straightening curly hair, tanning or whitening, and slimming.  It’s as if life can only progress if we follow such preposterous rules.
   
 BEST MOMENTS
  
  “I had to have those all of that experience to be able to take the message to others.”
   “You get so much accolade in this world when you lose weight.”
   “I wouldn’t allow anything to be responsible for me and my choices other than me.”
   “People fat shame publicly, constantly with no apology, no punches fold, and don’t stop for a second and think that it’s bullying that they’re doing.”

  ABOUT THE GUEST
 Kate Huffman is an award-winning actor and playwright and a body positivity coach. She helps people reclaim the time, energy, and money wasted on the endless war with their bodies so that they can live freely and confidently in alignment with their purpose. 
 As an actor (Fresh Off the Boat, Castle), her work in film, TV, and theatre has won her an LA Weekly Theatre Award, an Encore Producers Award, a Valley Theatre Award, an Indie Series Award nomination, and several LADCC nominations. Her award-winning one woman show, I’M TOO FAT FOR THIS SHOW, which tells her story of twenty years of secret eating disorders and body dysmorphia, has toured around the country as well as internationally. It was the experience of doing this show and seeing how universal the story was - how many people out there were struggling with similar issues - that sent Kate on her path to body acceptance and body positive coaching.

      <title>E85: Financial behaviour trumps financial knowledge - Interview with Deon Fowler</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/085-fitb</link>
      <description>Today on the Fire In The Belly Podcast, Mighty Pete talks to Deon Fowler, the Founder of Premier Mobile Billboards, a digital mobile billboard company, and a certified life/business coach for young adults and entrepreneurs. Together they discuss the importance of having good financial behaviours, being okay with sudden career shifts, finding your niche, and ‘walking the talk’.
 Tune in this episode and get inspired!
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  
 Sometimes, no matter how keen (or maybe stubborn) we are striving for a certain thing, there are still some external factors that will disturb your pace or even alter your destination. If it will make you feel any better, just know that the universe may be nudging you in a better direction.
 For example, Deon thought he would be a pro football player for the rest of his life. He was a varsity player in high school and college. He followed every step in the rulebook to be fit, to be disciplined, and be the best player ever. He had to change directions because of an injury. This didn’t stop him from dreaming and still aiming to be the best of the best. He did everything to let it heal and also learn more about the sport. But when he came back, it seems like the puzzle pieces didn’t fit anymore.
 After everything that happened, he knew the NFL plan was now off the table. He could continue, but his mind eventually focused on increasing his wealth. First, he looked for his niche and started positioning himself as one of the go-to people in that field.
 Sometimes, it’s okay to just jump into something head-on even without prior knowledge. Continue learning—be a lifelong learner.  Deon Fowler started his own moving company. At first he didn’t know how to manage a team- he didn’t know how to keep them motivated and maintain high performance. But he observed and learned.
  
 Aside from being a serial entrepreneur, Deon also helps other aspiring business owners (especially young adults) through business coaching. He believes that his experiences, his journey to personal development are great starting points for others to learn.
  BEST MOMENTS
  
 “If you can manage your finances correctly, you can prepare yourself for a better life.”

 “I naturally gravitate towards money.”
 “You got to make money working for you… You don’t know when a pandemic, for example, will happen.”
 “You’ll definitely lose fire and lose hope when you’re competing with other people.”
 “You’ll never be wealthy when you’re working for someone else.”

  ABOUT THE GUEST
 Deon Fowler is a girl dad, life and business coach, and a passionate serial entrepreneur. He comes from a small town in northern Louisiana (Monroe/West Monroe), and now resides in Dallas, Texas. The first to graduate high school and college in his family, so he understands the importance of being a pioneer and setting the bar. An innate love for personal finance led him into banking, and later where he would start his entrepreneurship journey. A journey that’s been arduous and worthwhile to say the least!

        <![CDATA[<p>Today on the Fire In The Belly Podcast, Mighty Pete talks to Deon Fowler, the Founder of Premier Mobile Billboards, a digital mobile billboard company, and a certified life/business coach for young adults and entrepreneurs. Together they discuss the importance of having good financial behaviours, being okay with sudden career shifts, finding your niche, and ‘walking the talk’.</p> <p>Tune in this episode and get inspired!</p> <p><strong>KEY TAKEAWAYS</strong></p> <ul> <li>
<strong> </strong>Sometimes, no matter how keen (or maybe stubborn) we are striving for a certain thing, there are still some external factors that will disturb your pace or even alter your destination. If it will make you feel any better, just know that the universe may be nudging you in a better direction.</li> <li>For example, Deon thought he would be a pro football player for the rest of his life. He was a varsity player in high school and college. He followed every step in the rulebook to be fit, to be disciplined, and be the best player ever. He had to change directions because of an injury. This didn’t stop him from dreaming and still aiming to be the best of the best. He did everything to let it heal and also learn more about the sport. But when he came back, it seems like the puzzle pieces didn’t fit anymore.</li> <li>After everything that happened, he knew the NFL plan was now off the table. He could continue, but his mind eventually focused on increasing his wealth. First, he looked for his niche and started positioning himself as one of the go-to people in that field.</li> <li>Sometimes, it’s okay to just jump into something head-on even without prior knowledge. Continue learning—be a lifelong learner. <ul> <li>Deon Fowler started his own moving company. At first he didn’t know how to manage a team- he didn’t know how to keep them motivated and maintain high performance. But he observed and learned.</li> </ul> </li> <li>Aside from being a serial entrepreneur, Deon also helps other aspiring business owners (especially young adults) through business coaching. He believes that his experiences, his journey to personal development are great starting points for others to learn.</li> </ul> <p><strong>BEST MOMENTS</strong></p> <ul> <li>
<strong> </strong><strong><em>“</em></strong><em>If you can manage your finances correctly, you can prepare yourself for a better life.”</em>
</li> <li><em>“I naturally gravitate towards money.”</em></li> <li><em>“You got to make money working for you… You don’t know when a pandemic, for example, will happen.”</em></li> <li><em>“You’ll definitely lose fire and lose hope when you’re competing with other people.”</em></li> <li><em>“You’ll never be wealthy when you’re working for someone else.”</em></li> </ul> <p><strong>VALUABLE RESOURCES</strong></p> <ul> <li>Check out the Premier Mobile Billboards Official Website: <a href="https://premiermobilebillboards.com/">https://premiermobilebillboards.com/</a>

      <title>E84: Sharon McNulty</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/sharon-mcnulty</link>
      <description>Today on the Fire In The Belly Podcast, we meet the Founder of Serenity Sparks Joy and the only KonMari consultant in Northern Island, Sharon McNulty. 
 It was a couple years ago when Marie Kondo changed the way we tidy up in our own homes or even in our offices. This Japanese way of decluttering is pretty straightforward—keep things you love and throw away (or give away) things that don’t spark joy. Let’s learn more today about this and how Sharon can change different lives through this method. Other topics discussed too were: organisation vs tidying up, sharing your expertise to other people, the importance of systems and strategies, KonMari’s effect on one’s life, and many more.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  
 The first step is always the hardest. When Sharon knocks on your door, expect changes—changes in your wardrobe, changes in your kitchen counter, and believe it or not, changes in your life. Her clients are still in awe of how the KonMari way of decluttering helped them.

 
 It might be daunting for some to throw away stuff. Sharon is here to explain everything and show them that there is a more satisfying way of life when we open our minds to the Japanese art of decluttering.

 
 Is organisation and tidying the same thing? No, some of us think it’s good to keep a LOT of stuff because they’re kept or ‘organised’ in designated areas. We need to tidy things up! Let’s only keep the things we really need. 

 
 KonMari is also a way of life. Think about the similarities with some existing paradigms:  
 The abundance mindset. There is enough in this world for you and the other people. Let us only take in the energy (and also the stuff) we need.

 
 The law of attraction. Kondo teaches about choosing what sparks joy. In the law of attraction, we are called to manifest only the desired energy (i.e. positive high vibrations) we give and receive.

  
 
 Life is too beautiful to be wasted on things that don’t matter. Surround yourself with positivity. Be cautious and don’t gravitate towards external factors that bring toxicity.

  BEST MOMENTS
  
 “Use the KonMari method; you’d only ever have to tidy up once.”

 
 “In order to let go of the items, you got to let go of the emotions.”

 
 “You can’t really be fulfilled with things.”

 
 “My pride is my business… believing that I can do something and going ahead and actually doing it.”

      <title>E83: Interview with Catriona Briggs Evans</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/interview-with-catriona-briggs-evans</link>
      <description>When you think your story matters and can help others, then let your voice be heard!
 In this episode of the Fire In The Belly Podcast, Mighty Pete talks to Catriona Briggs Evans about her personal journey. Destroy all limiting beliefs, find your voice, and learn about resilience from Catriona when you tune in today!
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  
  Beware of the victim mentality. Bad things happen. We get hurt emotionally and psychologically sometimes. But it’s also our responsibility to prevent these things happening (as much as we are able) and to also ready ourselves for similar instances in the future.
   People who always play the victim need to build self-confidence and practice self-awareness. We can’t continue blaming others for our wrong actions. It’s also difficult to move forward in life if we always think that we’re like this because of other peoples’ actions. You can take control of your life.
   A lot happened to Catriona in her childhood and teenage years—she has been bullied, she has been suicidal, and she experienced victimhood. This made her feel lost for a very long time.  Today, these now serve as reminders for her to keep her mental health ‘in check’ and to strive for more in life.
   Speak up. It’s a life skill that Catriona values so much. It was difficult for her to find her voice, so when she did, she aimed to be intentional. She wants to influence others to do the same and fight for their hearts’ desires.
   We try so much to impress other people that we forget to listen to our own needs and wants. This shouldn’t be the case. Like-minded people gather and connect easily. If you emanate positive energy, then you’ll attract others that do too.
   
 BEST MOMENTS
  
  “Your experiences are opportunities to be resilient.”
   “It’s okay to be not okay, but it’s not okay to stay there.”
   “I wanna be a good example for my children.”

      <itunes:summary>When you think your story matters and can help others, then let your voice be heard!
 In this episode of the Fire In The Belly Podcast, Mighty Pete talks to Catriona Briggs Evans about her personal journey. Destroy all limiting beliefs, find your voice, and learn about resilience from Catriona when you tune in today!
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  
  Beware of the victim mentality. Bad things happen. We get hurt emotionally and psychologically sometimes. But it’s also our responsibility to prevent these things happening (as much as we are able) and to also ready ourselves for similar instances in the future.
   People who always play the victim need to build self-confidence and practice self-awareness. We can’t continue blaming others for our wrong actions. It’s also difficult to move forward in life if we always think that we’re like this because of other peoples’ actions. You can take control of your life.
   A lot happened to Catriona in her childhood and teenage years—she has been bullied, she has been suicidal, and she experienced victimhood. This made her feel lost for a very long time.  Today, these now serve as reminders for her to keep her mental health ‘in check’ and to strive for more in life.
   Speak up. It’s a life skill that Catriona values so much. It was difficult for her to find her voice, so when she did, she aimed to be intentional. She wants to influence others to do the same and fight for their hearts’ desires.
   We try so much to impress other people that we forget to listen to our own needs and wants. This shouldn’t be the case. Like-minded people gather and connect easily. If you emanate positive energy, then you’ll attract others that do too.
   
 BEST MOMENTS
  
  “Your experiences are opportunities to be resilient.”
   “It’s okay to be not okay, but it’s not okay to stay there.”
   “I wanna be a good example for my children.”

      <title>E82: The Trenell Effect: The 7 Principles of Perseverance, Interview with Trenell Walker</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/trenell-walker</link>
      <description>In this episode of Fire In The Belly Podcast, Trenell gives us a glimpse of the Trenell Effect. He shares with Mighty Pete about the tragic accident which paralysed him from the neck down and his journey towards being the captivating speaker he is today. He has inspired and empowered so many people by sharing his story and changing their mindset for the better.
 Some great topics discussed are: mental vs physical capability, Ziglar Legacy, the 7 Principles of Perseverance, best tools and resources in helping you succeed, and more.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  
 No one ever wants to see a teenager or any kid’s dreams get crushed. It’s unimaginable how an injury destroyed Trenell’s dream to become a pro football player and also to leave him paralysed from the neck down.  He’s forever grateful for his supportive family. His disability requires thorough assistance, and they were and still are right beside him.
  
 The Trenell Effect: The 7 Principles of Perseverance is Trenell’s gift to the world—what he wants to be his legacy. Every time he gets a chance to share his story, he sees that everyone leaves inspired and motivated to achieve their own goals too.  The ‘Trenell’ Effect stands for Take Action, Resilience, Encourage, Never quit, Evaluate, Learn, L
 "You can have everything in life you want if you'll just help enough other people get what they want"
  
 Start with yourself, always. It’s easier to encourage others to do their best when they see that you feel encouraged too. Despite Trenell having special needs, he’s formidable, especially mentally and emotionally. He’s confident that he can help you to have the right mindset and beliefs so you can control your own life to success.
 He’s had his bad days too. He admits that his accident also caused depression, and it was quite difficult to understand and get out of it. But once he did, he told himself that he’ll never go back there again.
 Never quit. Always know that there’s nothing wrong in trying again (and again and again). There is never a big enough challenge you cannot overcome. Be patient, and persevere. If Trenell was able to reach wherever he is right now (despite everyone else telling him he couldn’t), then you could too.
  BEST MOMENTS
  “Attitude is contagious.”
 “If you can look up, you can get up.”
 “You have to encourage yourself to help others flourish. When you feel encouraged, you can help others feel encouraged.”
 “Every morning, the worst part about being paralysed is working out that you can’t do anything for yourself.”

      <title>E81: Olive Murphy</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/olive-murphy</link>
      <description>If you’re thinking of a change of pace in your career, getting that promotion in your organization, or plainly just asking for a raise, then you’re in the right place. In this episode of Fire In The Belly Podcast, Career Performance Coach Olive Murphy talks about how she has helped individuals move forth in their careers. 
 It all starts with getting into the right mindset, pulling all the negative beliefs and factors away from you, and knowing your support group. Find out more when you tune in today!
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  
 Olive prides herself on her ability to easily gain trust from her clients. Clients need to be comfortable to get all they can from mentoring. 

 
 There’s a big difference in ‘listening to understand’ and ‘listening to react’. The former should always be your intention since it becomes easier to arrive at a well-thought decision/conclusion. A huge part of being a coach (or a mentor) is letting your client speak. 

 
 Since most of us are working from home due to Covid-19, coordinating tasks with your team can be daunting. There are tools (Zoom, Microsoft Teams, Slack, Agile, etc.) that can help us stay collaborative and work efficiently. But there is none of that human interaction you’re used to. The management should always be considerate about one’s new working environment, and do the proper adjustments needed.

 
 Don’t get sucked into darkness. As much as possible, problems shouldn’t be resting in your ‘mind palace’ for too long. Accept them, evaluate, and learn from them. That’s all there is to them—reminders that you are better and can do better.

 
 Age bias is still prevalent in the workplace and even in coaching, particularly for older clients. This shouldn’t be the case. Olive strongly advises coaches like her not to be picky, especially if you have the knowledge and capability to help.

  BEST MOMENTS
  
 “When you dig dip and keep a positive attitude, you can achieve what other people think you can’t achieve.”

 
 “The most important thing is you’re enjoying what you’re doing.”

 
 “Don’t wallow too long in the negative.”

 
 “My passion is making a difference with people.”

 
 “Take a chance and try something, always.”

      <itunes:summary>If you’re thinking of a change of pace in your career, getting that promotion in your organization, or plainly just asking for a raise, then you’re in the right place. In this episode of Fire In The Belly Podcast, Career Performance Coach Olive Murphy talks about how she has helped individuals move forth in their careers. 
 It all starts with getting into the right mindset, pulling all the negative beliefs and factors away from you, and knowing your support group. Find out more when you tune in today!
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  
 Olive prides herself on her ability to easily gain trust from her clients. Clients need to be comfortable to get all they can from mentoring. 

 
 There’s a big difference in ‘listening to understand’ and ‘listening to react’. The former should always be your intention since it becomes easier to arrive at a well-thought decision/conclusion. A huge part of being a coach (or a mentor) is letting your client speak. 

 
 Since most of us are working from home due to Covid-19, coordinating tasks with your team can be daunting. There are tools (Zoom, Microsoft Teams, Slack, Agile, etc.) that can help us stay collaborative and work efficiently. But there is none of that human interaction you’re used to. The management should always be considerate about one’s new working environment, and do the proper adjustments needed.

 
 Don’t get sucked into darkness. As much as possible, problems shouldn’t be resting in your ‘mind palace’ for too long. Accept them, evaluate, and learn from them. That’s all there is to them—reminders that you are better and can do better.

 
 Age bias is still prevalent in the workplace and even in coaching, particularly for older clients. This shouldn’t be the case. Olive strongly advises coaches like her not to be picky, especially if you have the knowledge and capability to help.

  BEST MOMENTS
  
 “When you dig dip and keep a positive attitude, you can achieve what other people think you can’t achieve.”

 
 “The most important thing is you’re enjoying what you’re doing.”

 
 “Don’t wallow too long in the negative.”

 
 “My passion is making a difference with people.”

 
 “Take a chance and try something, always.”

      <title>E80: Interview with Richard Stone</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/interview-with-richard-stone</link>
      <description>Welcome back to the Fire In The Belly Podcast!
 Our guest Richard Stone, a multiple business owner and a principle contractor, shares today his life story and the importance of human relations in business, and even outside of it. Richard greatly owes his success to his loved ones, his team, and his clients. If he didn’t make an effort to create strong, lasting bonds with them by building trust, then his journey would’ve been very rough.
 Learn today how Richard and Mighty Pete were able to pave their way to success by acting human. 
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  As a business leader, know that there IS no harm in being vulnerable. Richard assures you that respect will still be present. In fact, it is only when people know that they can trust you that they give their full commitment.
 Notice the similarities and differences in how successful entrepreneurs run their business. They all have the determination and the guts to realise their vision, but their business plans differ from each other. There isn’t one blueprint for success. Cater to your needs and your available resources, as much as possible.
 Not everyone is your customer. Good contractors just don’t take any clients that approach them. Make sure too that you can provide their needs. If you can’t be of any help to them, then it’s best that you recommend someone else that would be a good fit.
 The most powerful thing that you shouldn’t forget in your checklist to suceed is maintaining a healthy relationship with your support group, aka your loved ones. It is them who keep you grounded and inspire you. 
 Social media has been equally beneficial and destructive to many people.  You need to learn how to use it properly. Be compassionate and understanding, offline, and online. We don’t know what the other person we’re talking to is going through.
  BEST MOMENTS
  
  “I don’t feel like I’m at work because I love what I do.”
   “When leading teams, you need to be okay being vulnerable.”
   “Mentoring is not about giving them the answers… it’s all about asking them the questions and giving them some guidance.”
   “People are increasingly scared to say NO… it’s okay to say NO.”

      <title>E79: Redesign Your Vibe with Ciara McCarron</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/ciara-mccarron</link>
      <description>It’s difficult to rise from the ashes again when we have low self-esteem and low confidence. This may be because of past traumas, anxiety, stress, or other external factors.
 So, in this episode of the Fire In The Belly Podcast, our guest Ciara McCarron from Redesign Your Vibe discusses the rewiring of one’s subconscious programming so you can achieve more.
 Ciara is very knowledgeable about the techniques Rapid Transformation Therapy (RTT) and Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP). She used these and helped her clients cope with trauma and/or limiting beliefs. 
 Aside from the abovementioned, Ciara herself had ups and downs in her career and personal life. Join Mighty Pete and Ciara as they talk about more of these when you tune in!

 When we’re haunted by our past traumas—and even the current traumatic events (i.e. COVID-19)—we often get stressed, leaving our plans derailed. This might just be a short stagnation for the lucky ones, but most often than not, it happens in a prolonged time. Ciara assures that this is completely normal.   
 What you need first is acceptance, and then the willingness to ask for help. It becomes easier when you let someone else help you cope through this difficult time in your life.

  
 
 Not everyone will have heard of it, but rapid transformational therapy, or RTT for short, is one way to combat traumatic stress and its other negative effects. RTT involves hypnotherapy and offers effective and long-term positive outcomes not only to your mental health but also to your life in general. 

 
 Ciara also shares how her childhood was a dark time for her. It wasn’t just lately that she realised how much she struggled to try to live a normal life back then. She wasn’t aware that her hopeful disposition would slowly be crashed by the negativity (even from her parents) around her.

 
 From being broke and broken to becoming a successful entrepreneur. It’s Ciara’s journey that helped her recognise people experiencing traumatic stress may differ on how they deal with it. So as much as possible, she listens and then tailors the treatment with the individuals needs in mind.  
 There isn’t a wrong and right way on how to cope. Evaluate and do whatever works for you. You are in control of your healing process.

  
  BEST MOMENTS
  
 “There is no one in this world that rapid transformation cannot help.”

 
 “I know that if I helped them on a certain level, I have done my job.”

 
 “No matter how many times you fall, you stand back up… There’s nothing in this life that can be completely permanent.”

      <itunes:summary>It’s difficult to rise from the ashes again when we have low self-esteem and low confidence. This may be because of past traumas, anxiety, stress, or other external factors.
 So, in this episode of the Fire In The Belly Podcast, our guest Ciara McCarron from Redesign Your Vibe discusses the rewiring of one’s subconscious programming so you can achieve more.
 Ciara is very knowledgeable about the techniques Rapid Transformation Therapy (RTT) and Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP). She used these and helped her clients cope with trauma and/or limiting beliefs. 
 Aside from the abovementioned, Ciara herself had ups and downs in her career and personal life. Join Mighty Pete and Ciara as they talk about more of these when you tune in!

      <title>E78: Pursuit of Healing, Interview with Sue Bowles</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/sue-bowles</link>
      <description>Today on the Fire In The Belly Podcast, Mighty Pete talks to Sue Bowles, a well-known coach and author, to talk about her support to those in need of inspiration and wisdom about healing. Sue herself was a survivor of severe childhood trauma so her wisdom comes from a stark place.
 She shares that her faith in God is what brought her the courage to accept what happened to her and to also share her story. This may be a difficult (and maybe triggering) topic for some, but if it will help anyone who went through such trauma, she’ll gladly help.
 Healing is a continuous process; that’s what we should instil in our minds. Know more about Sue and her passion when you listen in today!
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  
 Our mindset, values, and principles are what make you who you are. They are big indicators of how you act and push you where you truly want to be.
 Place your faith in what you think will make you better. Most successful individuals have been very vocal about their spiritual journeys. Some find it in meditation, some find it in religion. Sue, for example, is a devout Christian. This has helped her heal and develop stronger bonds in her relationships.
 Sue also greatly believes that her faith made her see that she’s more than her fears and the trauma. After battling all of it and is now enjoying her life to the full.
 Choose your tribe. When you’re with the right group of people, you glow. Because there is nothing in this world, they would want for you but to achieve more in life. Don’t waste your time trying to impress the wrong people. Do it for yourself and then do it for the people you love.
 Our physical health is a manifestation of what we’re feeling inside. It’s best to keep our emotions and thoughts in check. These are things you just can’t brush off. Remember that you have to be mentally and emotionally well to be truly 

   
  BEST MOMENTS
  “Where I was then is nowhere near where I am now, but where I am now is because where I was then.”
 “I am not here where I am without those people and them letting God work through them.”
 “You are not to blame; it is not your fault.”

      <title>E77: Interview with Kimberly Milousis, Empowered Living</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/interview-with-kimberly-milousis-empowered-living</link>
      <description>Today on the Fire In The Belly Podcast, Mighty Pete talks to Kimberly Milousis, Canadian Founder and a Presidential Diamond Leader of doTERRA, about her journey to success, her relentless support to all the women out there, and also some parenting tips.
 Kimberly is very proud how doTERRA essential oils help her improve her health and her income. She couldn’t believe the amount of time and comfort she can now share with herself and her family. Remember that you can do it too! Listen in to get first dibs on some life-changing tips and strategies now.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  Learn not to pass quick (and false) judgment. We should take a brief pause and think everything through before opening our mouths. Just know that just like you, they have feelings too. Compassion can go a long way. 
  We, as business leaders, influencers, and professionals must be mindful of what we impart too. 
  Kimberly is very happy that she’s empowering a lot of women. She has had times when she thought of herself as unworthy, and that kept her life aimless. So, now, after realising that she is meant to live and enjoy life so much more, she wants other people to see that they deserve the best too.
 We are so obsessed with being perfect. Finding the perfect words; devising the perfect plan. Always aiming to be 100% flawless has pros and cons. Be careful not to get too caught up as it might take a toll on your business and even your health. Kimberly suggests just aim to do your best. It’s less stressful and more fulfilling this way. 
 As a mom, it can be a real problem not knowing when to let go of them as they grow up. We want the best for our kids, as always. But maybe loosening (and even removing) the reins will help them be independent and be wiser. There’s a lot that they can learn when they experience on their own.
  She also homeschooled her youngest while she was supervising over her business. This is to prove too that being a mom can never be a hindrance if you want to achieve success in the business world.
   BEST MOMENTS
  
  “Life is a journey. I don’t feel like I ever arrived.”
   “I can’t be a people pleaser, because if I were, I wouldn’t be functioning, I would probably be in a straitjacket.”
   “You can’t really be an entrepreneur and be a perfectionist.”
   “Learning is something that happens every hour of the day, and not from 9 to 3 or whatever the school hours were.”
   “There’s no fear in love.”

      <title>E76: Gavin Preston</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/gavin-preston</link>
      <description>What we don’t want is to stagnate in our business. So, today on the Fire In The Belly Podcast, we learn how to overcome plateaus and achieve limitless business (and personal) growth! 
 Gavin Preston, a Business Strategist, an Author, and a Business Mentor, graces us with his presence to offer creative strategies and some resources that can be useful in maintaining business growth. He also talks about how he has helped thousands of business owners and professionals alike. One major takeaway from this discussion is the importance of having healthy connections in our lives. Find out what Gavin meant by this when you tune in.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  
 It’s ironic since an individual can only experience fulfilment in his business if he makes sure that he has healthy relationships outside of it. A balance between the business and our personal lives is what we should aim for. Imagine having to share every success--and eventually your legacy--not just with your team but also your loved ones.

 
 Gavin can ‘read’ people and situations. He can decipher the how’s and why’s of things. That is why he can easily give substantial insights and strategies to anyone. For example, if he’s conversing with a client, he observes their language, facial expression, and body movements.

 
 You must connect with people. Gavin won’t stop reminding business leaders about this until the very end as this is the most common yet very underestimated business strategy. If you plan to exit your business early, then learn how to entrust it to the new leaders, the management and the team.

 
  From his experience, most of those in senior positions aren’t aware of what is really happening in their departments. You can only do so much inside the four corners of your office as a leader. Know what every single person under your jurisdiction is doing. Talk to them, and listen.

  BEST MOMENTS
  
 “I want to help you get the success and fulfilment from your business the way you’ve dreamt of when you first started it.”

 
 “We can all strive for quality life experience.”

 
 “There’s always a breakdown before a breakthrough.”

 
 “Facilitate a conversation… even if it’s gonna be unpleasant.”

        <![CDATA[<p><strong>What we don’t want is to stagnate in our business. So, today on the Fire In The Belly Podcast, we learn how to overcome plateaus and achieve limitless business (and personal) growth! </strong></p> <p><strong>Gavin Preston, a Business Strategist, an Author, and a Business Mentor, graces us with his presence to offer creative strategies and some resources that can be useful in maintaining business growth. He also talks about how he has helped thousands of business owners and professionals alike. One major takeaway from this discussion is the importance of having healthy connections in our lives. Find out what Gavin meant by this when you tune in.</strong></p> <p><strong>KEY TAKEAWAYS</strong></p> <ul> <li>
<strong> </strong><strong>It’s ironic since an individual can only experience fulfilment in his business if he makes sure that he has healthy relationships outside of it. A balance between the business and our personal lives is what we should aim for. Imagine having to share every success--and eventually your legacy--not just with your team but also your loved ones.</strong>
</li> <li>
<strong> </strong><strong>Gavin can ‘read’ people and situations. He can decipher the <em>how’s </em>and <em>why’s </em>of things. That is why he can easily give substantial insights and strategies to anyone. For example, if he’s conversing with a client, he observes their language, facial expression, and body movements.</strong>
</li> <li>
<strong> </strong><strong>You must connect with people. Gavin won’t stop reminding business leaders about this until the very end as this is the most common yet very underestimated business strategy. If you plan to exit your business early, then learn how to entrust it to the new leaders, the management and the team.</strong>
</li> <li>
<strong> </strong><strong> From his experience, most of those in senior positions aren’t aware of what is really happening in their departments. You can only do so much inside the four corners of your office as a leader. Know what every single person under your jurisdiction is doing. Talk to them, and listen.</strong>
</li> </ul> <p><strong>BEST MOMENTS</strong></p> <ul> <li>
<strong> </strong><strong><em>“I want to help you get the success and fulfilment from your business the way you’ve dreamt of when you first started it.”</em></strong>
</li> <li>
<strong> </strong><strong><em>“We can all strive for quality life experience.”</em></strong>
</li> <li>
<strong> </strong><strong><em>“There’s always a breakdown before a breakthrough.”</em></strong>
</li> <li>
<strong> </strong><strong><em>“Facilitate a conversation… even if it’s gonna be unpleasant.”</em></strong>

      <title>E75: Paul Maskill</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/paul-maskill</link>
      <description>If you want to increase your wealth and have passive income streams, then you’re at the right place! Today on the Fire In The Belly Podcast, Mighty Pete talks to Paul Maskill, a well-known small business coach and advocate. Together, they discuss how you can build a business, design a working system that you can utilise, and also leverage so you can have more free time. 
 During these difficult times, it’s very normal to worry about our future. Let Paul and Mighty Pete eradicate that concern away. Prepare and strategise; you’ll find that money-making business idea soon!
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  Paul can’t count how many times did he feel that he was boxed to do only limited things as he progressed in life. There are things that only the society deems proper to do—from your school days to your career journey to even retiring. But remember that you have the power to modify and make it work for you.  Being adventurous and eager is hard if you always get influenced by societal norms. Paul was glad that he followed where his heart is leading him to. He’s confident that he’s already prepared for life and has been very impactful to other people.
  
 Experience is really your best teacher. Paul was happy growing his first business with his team, but he noticed that it wasn’t working anymore. He was a business owner clocking in 80 hours in just one week. Clearly, there was something wrong there. So, he found ways on how to automate and systematise his operations.  He learned from people who knows more than he does. He consumed every business book and every business podcast he can find. This also catapulted his interest in learning about personal development too.
  
 He found out that the reason why he’s had a difficult time scaling up his business is he wasn’t delegating tasks effectively. While entrepreneurs are knowledgeable and are capable to do every operational task, they must learn to decipher what are of great importance.
 Right now, Paul helps his clients build a great business so they can leverage it and lead their dream lifestyle in the future. He adds that being ready psychologically and most importantly financially.
  BEST MOMENTS
  “Life is too short to be doing something you hate every day.”
 “Give them (kids) access to everything and let them figure out… Give them the tools to actually succeed and let them figure out what works best.”
 “I’m all about enjoying life, but for me, it’s all about experiences.”

      <title>E74: Mighty Pete Talks to Make It Happen Founder Will Polston</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/mighty-pete-talks-to-make-it-happen-founder-will-p</link>
      <description>In this episode of the Fire In The Belly Podcast, we learn about how we can be better individuals for ourselves and others. According to our guest, Will Polston from Make It Happen, we can unlock our full potential and continue growing when we prioritise our role as supporters, aids, and guides to other people. It is more important that we achieve a fulfilled life and do it not because of our success alone. 
 Will’s vision isn’t for just a few, he literally wants to make it happen for everyone--imagine the billions of people living on planet earth knowing how they can, on their own, traverse this lifetime easily and happily. 
 Other topics discussed were: acknowledging your emotions, law of attraction, personal development, NLP, and more. Tune in now to learn more from Will.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  A fulfilled life is achieved when there is personal growth and a positive impact made to others. We can only be successful when we recognise that this life is not only ours. We must be aware of our loved ones, our colleagues, and the community we are in.
 Will greatly believes in the law of attraction. If we see ourselves as optimistic, confident, and bound for success, then we attract people with the same aura. This is how successful entrepreneurs built their wide networks.
 There are ripple effects to human behaviour. If we start within and make the effort of being positive about everything and to everyone, we influence them to do the same. You’re one in a billion, but you can do anything.
 Who is your key leader? Will emphasises that listing down the people who influence you—the ones who raise you, your mentors, your social circle, etc.—can help you identify your core values too. For Will remembers his uncle being a key influence in his life. From him, Will learned about the importance of hard work.
 Remember your childhood dreams; they can serve as a big driving force if you feel you aren’t moving in life. No matter how far-off it is from the career path you’ve taken. The unadulterated dream to be the best at something is a good memory to go back to once in a while to get motivated.
  BEST MOMENTS
  
  “I believe the whole schooling system is broken and it has been for so many years. Young adults are rewarded based on achievement, instead of effort.”
   “I always thought that business is all about money… I never understood before that the purpose of business is to solve a problem.”
   “The thing that’s very different for me now is I always now ask the question, ‘Why?’”
   “Set your goals in stone and set your method in the sand.”
   “Life happens for you and not to you.”
   “Our highest values are perceived because of our perceived voice.”

Pete openly talks about losing both of his parents, suffering periods of depression, business downturn and burn-out, and ultimately his years spent not stoking ‘Fire In the Belly’. In 2017, at 37 years of age that changed, and he is now on a journey of learning, growing, accepting, and inspiring others.
 Pete can connect with people and intuitively asks questions to reveal a person’s passion and discover how to live their mightiest life. The true power of ‘Fire In The Belly’ is the Q&amp;A’s - Questions and Actions!
 The ‘Fire In The Belly’ brand and the programme is rapidly expanding into podcasts, seminars, talks, business workshops, development course, and rapid results mentoring.

      <itunes:summary>In this episode of the Fire In The Belly Podcast, we learn about how we can be better individuals for ourselves and others. According to our guest, Will Polston from Make It Happen, we can unlock our full potential and continue growing when we prioritise our role as supporters, aids, and guides to other people. It is more important that we achieve a fulfilled life and do it not because of our success alone. 
 Will’s vision isn’t for just a few, he literally wants to make it happen for everyone--imagine the billions of people living on planet earth knowing how they can, on their own, traverse this lifetime easily and happily. 
 Other topics discussed were: acknowledging your emotions, law of attraction, personal development, NLP, and more. Tune in now to learn more from Will.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  A fulfilled life is achieved when there is personal growth and a positive impact made to others. We can only be successful when we recognise that this life is not only ours. We must be aware of our loved ones, our colleagues, and the community we are in.
 Will greatly believes in the law of attraction. If we see ourselves as optimistic, confident, and bound for success, then we attract people with the same aura. This is how successful entrepreneurs built their wide networks.
 There are ripple effects to human behaviour. If we start within and make the effort of being positive about everything and to everyone, we influence them to do the same. You’re one in a billion, but you can do anything.
 Who is your key leader? Will emphasises that listing down the people who influence you—the ones who raise you, your mentors, your social circle, etc.—can help you identify your core values too. For Will remembers his uncle being a key influence in his life. From him, Will learned about the importance of hard work.
 Remember your childhood dreams; they can serve as a big driving force if you feel you aren’t moving in life. No matter how far-off it is from the career path you’ve taken. The unadulterated dream to be the best at something is a good memory to go back to once in a while to get motivated.
  BEST MOMENTS
  
  “I believe the whole schooling system is broken and it has been for so many years. Young adults are rewarded based on achievement, instead of effort.”
   “I always thought that business is all about money… I never understood before that the purpose of business is to solve a problem.”
   “The thing that’s very different for me now is I always now ask the question, ‘Why?’”
   “Set your goals in stone and set your method in the sand.”
   “Life happens for you and not to you.”
   “Our highest values are perceived because of our perceived voice.”

      <title>E73: Bronagh Healey</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/bronagh-healey</link>
      <description>It all starts with your mindset. When you know you’re capable, then you can do anything.
 Today on the Fire In The Belly Podcast, Mighty Pete talks to Bronagh Healey about her journey to mindset coaching. Expect a diverse discussion between Bronagh and Mighty Pete—from learning security in business to building a ‘success’ mindset. Truly, it is unbelievable how your passion can lead you to success easily when you have found it. Let’s tune in now to get inspired!
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  Bronagh was a self-proclaimed nerd for science, maths, and sports when she was a kid. As if these weren’t enough, she has also always been very creative.  She is lucky that her parents have always been supportive of all her talents. She has been able to explore and do her creative pursuits freely. She even ventured into design at the start of her career.
  
 For almost 3 years, she dedicated her efforts to the security profession. During this time, her interest in knowing more about the human mindset, values, behaviours, and interaction sprouted and grew. Maybe not ‘officially’, but this is when she knew she could do more for others.
 Right now, she’s busy establishing her credibility. Though she has enough knowledge and experience, she wants to be the one-stop-shop of her clients when they need life or business coaching. She’s learning about Neuro-Linguistic Programming (or NLP) among others to her clients combat trauma, stress, and limiting beliefs.
 It can be difficult for some people to accept and get over mistakes. Some experiences can cause trauma. Aside from effective techniques to cope, Bronagh also knows, understands, and can empathise. This is an important thing in building trust. Always find someone you are comfortable telling your story to.
  BEST MOMENTS
  “I know I was capable of more, so I just kept pushing myself. I know I can achieve anything.”
 “Follow what you are good at. Be you.”
 “If I don’t go, then I will never experience it.”
 “I know that there’s so much more for me, and it’s all within me.”

 In this episode of the Fire In The Belly Podcast, Mighty Pete talks to Elisabeth Pampalone, International Speaker and Business Adviser, about absolute marketing, how a website works as your 24-hour salesman, branding, and more.
 Marketing is Elizabeth’s ultimate passion. Listening to today’s discussion will be absolutely worth it, so tune in today!

  Indeed, COVID-19 has greatly affected every business and every individual. And the worst part is, we still don’t know when it will end unless a vaccine appears. For those who are affected, stay strong, and just know that this is a phase. Stay strong and believe you’ll get past this.
 Mighty Pete asks: Is a website ever finished? According to Elizabeth, it can be, but you must aim to improve it every time. Your environment changes—the culture, the trends, the people, etc. Always make sure you provide the right (and updated) information and service to your target audience.
 Elisabeth values her time so much. She knows that she can reach immense wealth and a one-of-a-kind legacy without doing the 9-5. Believe it or not, you can earn a 30-day compensation in just 3 days.
 More than providing them a functioning and user-friendly website, Elisabeth helps her clients boost their confidence and pride in their company. It’s also only when we see it in front of our eyes (the website) do we get some validation that we have reached a milestone. Maybe not that big for everyone, but it still is a relevant business step.
  BEST MOMENTS
  “It’s like being stuck in snow or quicksand with your car, you just gotta keep moving; if you stop, you will start sinking.”
 “Your website is your 24-hour salesman.”
 “Entrepreneurship is not for everybody, and it shouldn’t be.”
 “I knew what they needed, not they wanted.”

      <title>E71: There's No Mountain You Cannot Climb, Learn Self Belief and Success: Interview with Kyle McDowell</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/kyle-mcdowell</link>
      <description>When our guest, Positivity Coach Kyle McDowell, said he’s ready to change everyone’s mindset about themselves for the better, he wasn’t kidding.
 Once Kyle started tapping into his potential he saw endless possibilities. It has become bearable, if not easier, to face those bumps in life now he has realised his strengths and limitless capabilities. He believes if he can do it, then you can do it too.
 Enjoy today’s episode of the Fire In The Belly Podcast as each and every one of us learns more about some tools and strategies on how we can overcome the challenges and be successful in our chosen fields. As the saying goes, there is no mountain we can’t climb!
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  Find your reason for being so it’s easy for you to identify your fire in the belly. When everything’s aligned within you—your goals, your core values -it’s easier to make big decisions for your future. Just be consistent with your actions, and everything will become easier.
 Self-awareness does not only entail understanding yourself better. It also means that you’re considering the people around you and how you communicate with them. Look at your environment in order to reflect on your behaviour and emotions each day.
 Learn inside and ALSO outside the classrooms. Most of the time, it is when we are actually letting ourselves jump into new stuff, without even anyone telling us to do it, that we learn so much. Kyle is himself not studious, but he read a lot outside the school curriculum when he was still a student. He credits his broad knowledge to that habit.
 There is nothing toxic about being optimistic. It doesn’t mean that you refuse to see the reality of life. It just means that you accept and see what is happening right now, you evaluated and are willing to adapt to the situation. Optimism drives you and get you motivated.
  BEST MOMENTS
  “I would rather people see me as Mr. Positivity than the opposite, Mr. Negativity.”
 “Knowing your core values make you changeless in a changing environment.”
 “Nobody’s gonna pave your path for you. You create your own path.”
 “I’ve always had a passion for understanding other people.”

      <title>E70: The Power of the Human Mind: Interview with Kevin Young</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/kevin-young</link>
      <description>In this episode of the Fire In The Belly Podcast, it’s Kevin Young, the Founder of In Mynd, which helps organisations and individuals lead them to the right path to their successful future. Kevin is very vocal about his passion for learning about human behaviours and more importantly, helping other people. He does everything he can do to make sure that his mentees will be able to take home some wisdom that will forever be useful to them. It isn’t just a ‘career’ for Kevin; it is his life purpose.
 Join Mighty Pete and Kevin in a very insightful discussion about the power of the human mind, the courage to step up when every challenge arises, collective efforts, and more!
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  Don’t be a people pleaser. Kevin wasted so much time trying his best to be liked by everyone. Learn what you want truly for yourself so you know where you should be putting your focus. It’s time to put yourself first, as you should.
 Kevin’s first job involved sales and engaging with people. This is where he realised his deep passion for everything about people, relationships, and interactions. Though he saw a spark, the retail sales environment isn’t for him. He had to leave soon after—he wanted to learn more so he could create more value.
 Kevin sees fulfilment just in the mere fact that he’s touched others’ lives even once. Mindset, beliefs, and values… these core aspects of an individual can be stronger, with the help of a great coach like Kevin.
 We should all stop the racism, homophobia, and sexism. Because what we are as an individual and as a collective is LIFE. It’s easier when we live with positivity and with the purpose not only to better ourselves but also to better the lives of others.
  BEST MOMENTS
  “Fire in the Belly is what ‘calls’ you and what inspires you.”
 “And then I realised that I love the people… I realised then quickly that though they need strategic help, they also need emotional support.”
 “I’m close to myself more than I’ve ever been.”
 “Our experiences can also be born from consciousness.”

      <title>E69: The Hidden Attributes of Gaming: Interview with An Coppens</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/an-coppens</link>
      <description>When people think of video games, they think about violence, competition, and even wasting time. But that shouldn’t be the case. Gaming has a lot of elements that can be used in business, HR, and even education.
 In this episode of the Fire In The Belly Podcast, Might Pete talks to An Coppens, the Chief Game Changer of Gamification Nation, about how she offers business solutions in the form of gamification design services. It’s easier to ‘level up’ when everyone in the team is aware and motivated to get the same missions accomplished within a reasonable timeframe. Also, we ensure healthy communication and engagement among them. Find out how when you listen in!
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  An was always a diligent and versatile kid—doing every school requirement, acing most of the exams, and training as a student-athlete. Whatever mystery box is put in front of her, she studies, figures out, and masters whatever is inside it. She was always passionate and eager to finish when she starts something.
 For a long time, gaming has been frowned upon and avoided by people to consider as a career track. Even An’s parents questioned her decision. But An knew she got the talent and could contribute much in the industry, so she pushed for it no matter what.
 An also has experience in consultancy. This is where she saw a million possibilities of gaming. She advocates gaming as a tool to increase learner engagement. Games are how people will learn and communicate easier.
 Gamification (the application of gaming elements) can help to encourage engagement between the management, the team, and the customers. When there’s a good sense of teamwork, high performance is guaranteed. Besides, it also gets other people interested in the service you offer.
  BEST MOMENTS
  “I tend to get stuck on something and get immersed in it.”
 “If I can be a great player, then being a coach is another great thing to do.”
 “Sign off stress.”
 “Feedback is a strong motivator and creates a big impact (to the business).”
 “There’s money in games.”

      <title>E68: Empowerment: Interview with Annie M. Henderson</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/annie-henderson</link>
      <description>“What would you want for your child?”
 Sometimes, it just needs to be asked so we recalibrate ourselves and be the best model we can be for them. In this episode of the Fire In The Belly Podcast, we hear Annie Henderson, the Moms Empowerment Coach and host of the Happy Mama Village Podcast, to talk about how she started a community of strong women who support each other. Annie also shares some personal stories—how she aces being a mum, how she came out to her family, how she continues to be impactful to other people, especially women, and more. Tune in now to know more about her, her projects, and some parenting tips!
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  Don’t wait till your child reaches the teenage years to start honing good habits (and correcting the bad ones). Annie emphasises how important the formative years of a child are. During early childhood, the physical, emotional, and social development that is happening is crucial. Your duty as a parent, an educator, or a counsellor is to push the child onto the right path.
 Annie worked as a school counsellor. And one of her first objectives was to let the kids know who she was and how she can be a reliable person in their lives. When we introduce ourselves and show how supportive we are to our kids, then we build trust and it becomes easy for them to approach you.
 Fear will hold you back. Fear of rejection will not make you succeed; fear of conflicts will not let you understand and improve yourself. Limiting beliefs will truly stop you from achieving any of your goals.  Learn to teach yourself and your children how to be perceptive and courageous so they’ll be ready with whatever life throws at them.
  
 It was difficult for Annie to be true to herself before and to come out to her religious family. There are still a number who aren’t as welcoming as we thought to the LGBT+ community. She was also still with the father of her child that time. Does she have to limit herself so she cannot ‘hurt’ other people? It took a lot of courage to finally do it.
  BEST MOMENTS
  “If you’re not happy, if you’re not being authentic, then what are your kids gonna learn from you?”
 “Be impeccable with your word.”
 “It’s not because people expect things; it’s that we think people expect stuff from us.”
 “All relationships should start planning ahead.”

      <title>E67: Women in Business: Interview With Nicolle Overkamp</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/nicholle-overkamp</link>
      <description>Today, Mighty Pete interviews Nicholle Overkamp, CEO at Wilcox Financial Group, LLC, and co-author of Money Bitch!, about her commitment to helping professionals and business leaders, especially the women, to secure an unshakeable and wealthy financial future. Nicholle is the go-to expert when you need money coaching. Not only does one master the art of financial planning, but you also get to attain continuous personal development by learning about the right mindset, set of beliefs, and behaviours.
 Learn more about what successful and wealthy women (and men) do when you tune in to the latest episode of the Fire In The Belly Podcast.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  
 There are benefits to waking up early and scheduling your day ahead. Nicholle isn’t ashamed that she has been organized and goal-oriented even she was a kid. When everyone was busy trying to be cool, riding on the latest trend, she was on her planner busy ticking off the tasks that she has already done so far. Nothing has changed until now.
 Nicholle isn’t ashamed that she liked the usual daily grind. If not for learning that hard work goes beyond what you could imagine, Nicholle wouldn’t also know about the more effective way—smart hustling. She now works more efficiently and more conscientiously.
 But there were times that her busyness would take a toll. Nicholle’s advice is that you take a minute to rest and enjoy life. Even your relationships outside your business need to be nurtured. An individual who values his business as important as his personal development is a more effective business leader.
 Part of Nicholle’s objective is to help her clients have an unstoppable mindset, trust their core beliefs, and know more about their behaviours. These are very useful if you want to get the most out of financial planning. You’re more focused on your long-term business goals when everything is in the right place.
 Nicholle has always been active in pushing her women-centred advocacies. Aside from empowering business women, she’s also educating little girls about leadership in her free time. She and her partner also support non-profit organisations too that support women and the minorities.
  BEST MOMENTS
  
 “You can be good at what you do, but it doesn’t mean it’s enough to run a business.”

 “No one’s gonna work harder than me (for myself).”
 “We are typically working with women who are very ambitious, goal-oriented, career-focused, and/or a business owner.”
 “The only way to change the story of women in business is to give back and help other women in business… I wanna be a part of the change and not the problem.”

      <title>E66: Kelly Forrester</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/kelly-forrester</link>
      <description>Your failures are part of your life for a reason. They’re there to make you more powerful and unbreakable.
 In this episode of the Fire In The Belly Podcast, Mighty Pete talks to Kelly Forrester, the Resilience &amp; Growth Leader, about how she helps entrepreneurs achieve their business goals by sharing her truth. Even though you have the toughest skin, the unpleasant stuff will still try to penetrate hard and get you. Kelly says it’s normal. But you have to learn how to be resilient and be prepared more than ever in the future. Tune in now as she discusses some very helpful business lessons and also shares her journey.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  Always choose the path where you’ll emerge the victor. You don’t need the awards, the money, and all the worldly possessions to know that you’ve won. Learn how to see fulfilment in what you can’t see—the long-lasting life lessons, personal development and the impact on others’ lives.
 Kelly experienced a fair number of ups and downs when she was running her businesses. Though we know for a fact that the downside exists, it still stings every time, doesn’t it? Kelly wants you to remind yourself now and then about your life goals and to focus on them. Fill your mind with the optimism you need.
 It’s your duty as the business owner to protect your business and the people inside it. Don’t make decisions that would absolutely go against their stance. Learn the benefits of being risk-averse and being adaptable when a crisis happens.
 Key Tips Kelly would like everyone starting a business to know:  Crisis plan. When you hit a cash flow crisis, get someone to talk to about it.
 You are not your business. Be logical and realistic. Don’t get too caught up with emotions. If you need help or even to sell, then do it.
 Lead with love and compassion. Just a reminder since we tend to forget and be robots.
  
  BEST MOMENTS
  “It is all about energy. I feel that we’re connected in one way or another through higher energy.”
 “It doesn’t take anything to be a dad, but it takes everything to be a proper father.”
 “Your ‘home’ is where your heart is.”
 “Don’t go into a partnership with anybody, hoping that EVERYTHING will be okay.”
 “People will always judge you, but it says more about them than it is about you.”

      <title>E65: Interview With Sharon Bannister</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/sharon-bannister</link>
      <description>In today’s episode of the Fire In The Belly Podcast, Mighty Pete invites Sharon Bannister, a Registered Craniosacral Practitioner, so we can get an expert’s view on Craniosacral Therapy (CST) and a glimpse on her journey. CST can be an effective way for people to heal from trauma or any undesirable conditions in the body. Sharon herself has had her fair share of traumatic experiences and stress-filled phases too. So, she wants to help and share her treatment approach with everyone.
 You can regain your health and live your life with no holds barred again. Listen in to know more. Other topics discussed were how your ancestry can tell more about who you are, talking to people who are still dealing with their past traumas, Sharon’s interest for other cultures, and many more.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  Sharon is currently tracing her ancestry. So far, she has found out that she has an interesting ethnic background. She now knows where she got those distinctive physical features and her natural talent for music. Being acquainted with her roots helps her know herself more.
 When someone’s sharing their traumatic experiences, you must observe, allow them to talk about what happened, and not pass judgment quickly. Be compassionate; listen carefully.
 Sharon also shared her travels. She’s quite adventurous and very curious about other cultures. She has even lived in other countries and admits that she had an affluent lifestyle doing so. But during one of her trips, she got into an accident which caused her a back injury. This made her go back to London and start a new life again.
 If it wasn’t for that unfortunate event, she wouldn’t have discovered about mentoring, personal development, and other things that helped her shape who she is now. She wouldn’t have met and helped other people too, she adds.
  BEST MOMENTS
  “When I’m traumatised, what happens is I lose my voice.”
 “I love live and I respect life. I like learning about other cultures.”
 “I will find out more (about myself) when I learn more about my family.”
 “When you don’t have good mentoring, then you don’t know what you are creating.”
 “I want to be the best human being I can be in this planet.”

      <title>E64: Interview with Adam Cox</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/adam-cox</link>
      <description>Most people believe that they have to live with their phobias and fears for the rest of their lives. But the truth is you can eliminate it fast and don’t have to deal with it forever. Whether it be the fear of spiders, the fear of public speaking, or the fear of trusting people, our guest Adam Cox or aka the Phobia Guru can surely help you!
 In today’s episode of the Fire In The Belly Podcast, Adam shares to Mighty Pete stories on how he found his passion as well as some strategies to help you find yours too. He didn’t think that he’d be able to position himself as one of the experts in the field. Listen now so you can learn more about eliminating phobias, NLP, the 2 basic mindsets (and what you should be having), the acceptance of failure as part of life, and many more interesting kinds of stuff.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  When asked by Mighty Pete what fire in the belly means for Adam. He answered: You feel your fire in the belly is at work when all the engines inside your body are firing up to one direction, ignited by motivation, determination, and action.
 The ‘fake it till you make it’ mantra works. When Adam applied for jobs, he exaggerated everything. He has the knowledge, yes. But normally, those positions would be given to someone with more experience. Since he is confident and always eager to learn, it was easy for him to adjust to any work and environment.
 Having a growth mindset (instead of a fixed mindset) can make you get the most out of everything. You can solve any problems efficiently, seize any opportunity without hesitation, and come back easily from any failure.
 Don’t be afraid to set big goals. There is a possibility you’ll fail, no doubt in that. But the possibility too that you’ll learn something from the experience and come out stronger should also be noted. Failures and mistakes are parts of life. Always be confident in any decision you make. Follow your passion and leap.
 Beware of analysis paralysis. Sometimes, it’s best to just do it. We don’t let doubts and fear cloud our mind when we just start taking action. It’s also proven too that we learn more in practice than in theory.
  BEST MOMENTS
  “If I could change how I was thinking, then that could change how I was feeling.” 
 “When the world collides with your dreams, you have to learn how to reconcile it somehow.”
 “If you’re not happy with something, change it.”
 “Bet on yourself, you might end up winning.”
 “Without fear, we would be reckless. We get complacent, and that’s not good.”

      <title>E63: Interview with Juanita Duke</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/063-fitb</link>
      <description>Welcome back to the Fire In The Belly Podcast! Today’s episode will surely be a great hit to aspiring entrepreneurs and pet lovers alike. Today, Mighty Pete talks to Juanita Duke, a wealth coach, author, and the founder of Little Paws Dog Training Clubs, about her businesses, passions, and how she has helped her investors transform from Zero to Millionaire.
 Juanita is very passionate about sharing his knowledge of increasing wealth. And she’s going to be sharing some tips today and some of her stories you can learn from. It’s possible, even for those who have nothing, to get started in their investing or business journey. Start tuning in to get more wealth wisdom!
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  Don’t just do it for the money if you plan to start a business centred on providing services, whether it be for people or the cute furries. Juanita’s genuine love for dogs is her principal capital. It would’ve been tedious to get by and maintain well-ordered day-to-day operations if you aren’t passionate.
 Juanita joins competitions, but it’s not winning against others that she enjoys. It’s the idea that she’s improving every time, and getting back to the ring bigger and bolder. When we challenge ourselves, we grow, unlock more of our potential, and prove to ourselves we can do anything.
 One of Juanita’s tips was to look at already established businesses in the same field. Not to copy them but to learn from them—their best practices, some observations that you might want to incorporate, or omit from your business plan. This helped her greatly. Observe, jot down, and assess.
 It’s important for Juanita that when she retires, she has reached her financial goal and never has to worry about money. But she adds that happiness is more important than long-term goals, she always ensures that she is genuinely happy and can provide for herself and her family at the present. One can’t prepare for the future without spoiling the present.
  BEST MOMENTS
  “I can look at a picture of a dog and pick up its energy—if it’s feeling sad or worried.”
 “I ain’t overcompetitive with other people, but I like challenging myself.”
 “I don’t remember a time when I didn’t believe in myself, and I don’t think I would ever let anything happen to me that I wouldn’t be able to pick myself up again.”
 “I wanna be in the position where the money is working for me, and not the other way around where I am working for money”

It’s possible, even for those who have nothing, to get started in their investing or business journey. Start tuning in to get more wealth wisdom!
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  Don’t just do it for the money if you plan to start a business centred on providing services, whether it be for people or the cute furries. Juanita’s genuine love for dogs is her principal capital. It would’ve been tedious to get by and maintain well-ordered day-to-day operations if you aren’t passionate.
 Juanita joins competitions, but it’s not winning against others that she enjoys. It’s the idea that she’s improving every time, and getting back to the ring bigger and bolder. When we challenge ourselves, we grow, unlock more of our potential, and prove to ourselves we can do anything.
 One of Juanita’s tips was to look at already established businesses in the same field. Not to copy them but to learn from them—their best practices, some observations that you might want to incorporate, or omit from your business plan. This helped her greatly. Observe, jot down, and assess.
 It’s important for Juanita that when she retires, she has reached her financial goal and never has to worry about money. But she adds that happiness is more important than long-term goals, she always ensures that she is genuinely happy and can provide for herself and her family at the present. One can’t prepare for the future without spoiling the present.
  BEST MOMENTS
  “I can look at a picture of a dog and pick up its energy—if it’s feeling sad or worried.”
 “I ain’t overcompetitive with other people, but I like challenging myself.”
 “I don’t remember a time when I didn’t believe in myself, and I don’t think I would ever let anything happen to me that I wouldn’t be able to pick myself up again.”
 “I wanna be in the position where the money is working for me, and not the other way around where I am working for money”

      <title>E62: Grainne McNulty</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/grainne-mcnulty</link>
      <description>This is going to be a fun and insightful episode of the Fire In The Belly Podcast! Our today’s guest is Grainne McNulty. Grainne is just 21 years old but she is already helping other people live their lives fully by levelling up their mindset, beliefs, and values. This is one of her ultimate passions. She likes learning and sharing everything about personal development.
 If you want to know where to start—what resources you need to have or which mentors you need to follow (or approach)—then make sure to listen to Might Pete and Grainne’s discussion. Some other topics discussed are: how to deal with negative feedback, how the brain works, why people should stop conforming to society’s standards, and more.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  The human brain is fascinating. It automatically looks for solutions to any life puzzle—when it functions well. That’s how we are wired; we’re curious and inquisitive by nature.
  The brain’s reticular active system (RAS) is responsible for one’s motivation and determination to act on something. When we want something, our brain finds a way to acquire it.
  Grainne is still learning about herself. But at the age of 21, it’s already inspiring where she is in her life. She is on her way to get her law degree, and at the same time, she is teaching other people how to up-level their beliefs and mindsets. 
 Respect others’ opinions and perspectives. It’s nice when we see other people’s view of the world. It helps us get to know ourselves and improve ourselves.
 There are times when you receive negative feedback from others. Grainne’s advice is to not mind them. If it doesn’t help you in personal development and career growth, then you don’t have to do business with them. 
 What hinders most youth to see their full potential is society’s standards. Instead of letting them explore who they are and who they want to be, they are told to conform and just do what the generation before them did. Teach them that self-expression and igniting that fire in the belly is the way, so it’s easy for them to achieve success.
  BEST MOMENTS
  
  “It’s when they’re ready to make the first step that they will start to take action. You can’t force somebody before they’re ready.”
   
  “I believe that you create whatever you want in life. Whatever you want in life, you have to be the decider.”
 “Our subconscious mind has a creative success mechanism.”
 “Mindset encompasses so many things, and I’m learning about it every single day.”

      <title>E61: Minnie (Sinead) O Hanlon</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/minnie-sinead-o-hanlon</link>
      <description>Women have always been subject to society’s high beauty standards but the beauty industry has grown far from the traditional narrative. In this episode of the Fire In The Belly Podcast, Mighty Pete talks to Sinead “Minnie” O’Hanlon, the Founder of I AM SOH Cosmetics, about how she helps everyone embrace their creativity and self-expression through cosmetics.
 Cosmetics can be temporary, but nothing can beat its long-lasting effect on self-image and self-confidence. There’s no such thing as ‘too much colour’ or ‘too vibrant’. Wear what you know will suit you.
 Hear them discuss Minnie’s passion, femininity, how she manages her business (and at the same time be a full-time mum), some childhood stories, and more when you tune in.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  Minnie has always had a passion for make-up. She likes sprucing herself up whenever wherever, because who doesn’t want to be their best selves every day, right? For some, there is a magic that comes with cosmetics. We feel confident and form a positive body image of ourselves.
 It wasn’t easy to enter and compete with already-established stores in the beauty industry. But she likes what she’s doing and more so she gets to inform people how they can get more out of the beauty products.
 Being hairdressers, barbers, cosmetologists, etc. have been looked down upon as career paths in the past. But, they shouldn’t be. People are realising that these people play an important role in maintaining their well-groomed appearance—that is great capital in achieving success.
 Minnie is a go-getter. Though her cosmetic brand, I AM SOH is fairly new, she is already thinking of different ways on how to offer more. Alongside her are her great team and family who have been very supportive.
  BEST MOMENTS
  “If you want it, work for it.”
 “Everyone is unique in their own way.”
 “You only know what you know.”
 “It was always a big dream to have my own cosmetic brand.”
 “It’s important to have a safe network around you.”

 Pete can connect with people and intuitively asks questions to reveal a person’s passion and discover how to live their mightiest life. The true power of ‘Fire In The Belly’ is the Q&amp;A’s - Questions and Actions!
 The ‘Fire In The Belly’ brand and the programme is rapidly expanding into podcasts, seminars, talks, business workshops, development course, and rapid results mentoring.

      <itunes:summary>Women have always been subject to society’s high beauty standards but the beauty industry has grown far from the traditional narrative. In this episode of the Fire In The Belly Podcast, Mighty Pete talks to Sinead “Minnie” O’Hanlon, the Founder of I AM SOH Cosmetics, about how she helps everyone embrace their creativity and self-expression through cosmetics.
 Cosmetics can be temporary, but nothing can beat its long-lasting effect on self-image and self-confidence. There’s no such thing as ‘too much colour’ or ‘too vibrant’. Wear what you know will suit you.
 Hear them discuss Minnie’s passion, femininity, how she manages her business (and at the same time be a full-time mum), some childhood stories, and more when you tune in.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  Minnie has always had a passion for make-up. She likes sprucing herself up whenever wherever, because who doesn’t want to be their best selves every day, right? For some, there is a magic that comes with cosmetics. We feel confident and form a positive body image of ourselves.
 It wasn’t easy to enter and compete with already-established stores in the beauty industry. But she likes what she’s doing and more so she gets to inform people how they can get more out of the beauty products.
 Being hairdressers, barbers, cosmetologists, etc. have been looked down upon as career paths in the past. But, they shouldn’t be. People are realising that these people play an important role in maintaining their well-groomed appearance—that is great capital in achieving success.
 Minnie is a go-getter. Though her cosmetic brand, I AM SOH is fairly new, she is already thinking of different ways on how to offer more. Alongside her are her great team and family who have been very supportive.
  BEST MOMENTS
  “If you want it, work for it.”
 “Everyone is unique in their own way.”
 “You only know what you know.”
 “It was always a big dream to have my own cosmetic brand.”
 “It’s important to have a safe network around you.”

      <title>E60: Anna Cantwell</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/anna-cantwell</link>
      <description>It’s time to be confident and authentic so we can live our lives to the fullest!
 In this episode of the Fire In The Belly Podcast, we talk about the trinity within you—your body, mind, and soul. Our guest, Anna Cantwell is a Soul Coach and Meditation expert who has helped women get to know themselves, be bolder, and traverse their path to self-fulfilment. She has had her dark moments before, and as a survivor, she wants to share her experience and the wisdom with people. Some topics discussed today are the power of abundance mindset, accepting our spiritual side, the benefits of a great mental health state to our physical health, the consciousness of each individual, and more. Join Mighty Pete and Anna today!
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  
 I came into the world with my third eye open –  As a ‘soul coach’, Anna is similar to a life coach and helps individuals link their own mind, body, and spirit. She focuses on the connection and intersection between those three entities. They won’t ever be separated from each other.
 Poor mental health can greatly deteriorate the state of your physical health, and vice versa. Keep them both—not just one—in check every time. It’s good that you listen to what your body is telling you. If you don’t have the appetite or you feel your stomach hurting, then most likely, there is something bothering you. But better yet, make sure to meet with a counsellor.
 Ever had the ‘gut feeling’? There are a lot of neurotransmitters located near your stomach. According to Anna, any stomach issue might be related to your mental or brain health.
 Beware of the scarcity mindset; practice the abundance mindset. It’s not true there is only one pot of gold. There are immense resources and immense rewards you can get. You have to believe that you can fulfil your needs and wants on your own terms. Focus on what you can do and what you have.
 When you show up every day with your authentic self, you attract the right people—the ones who resonate with you and can support you throughout. We can never survive life with fake lifestyle and fake people. Let’s avoid having to live a life full of regrets.
  BEST MOMENTS
  “I see ‘fire in the belly’ as the desire and the will to really live, and to live life fully.”
 “There are several daily practices that we can do to make sure that we’re headed in a path that we actually want.”
 “Our paths are so unique that age means really nothing.”
 “I choose to invest money, time, resources, etc. in myself… I am the greatest investment I could make.”
 “It’s not my business to tell someone what they need to believe or how they need to operate.”

      <title>E59: Health and Wellness, Interview with Austin O Keeffe</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/health-and-wellness-interview-with-austin-o-keeffe</link>
      <description>Your main income stream can come from your passion projects. For our guest today, he was able to start a business and advocate for health and wellness.
 Today on the Fire In The Belly Podcast, we talk to Austin O Keeffe. Some topics that were discussed in this episode were his love for music, his childhood, his experience in sales and marketing, the importance of maintaining good health, religion, magic, and many more. 
 Tune in as your host Mighty Pete and Austin open your eyes to things that can help you know more about yourself and things that can help you find your fire in the belly. 
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  Austin’s mother was a psychiatric nurse. He recalls that when he was young, his mother had to take in mental hospital patients in their home. He observed, learned how to be hospitable, and also the circumstance opened up his eyes to the importance of mental health, aside from our physical health and wellness.
 Music is a big part of his life. At 11, he already was learning to play the accordion. At 13, he was witnessing (and slowly getting inspired) by the buskers of Dublin. Then after that, his interest in music continued. Austin is now a songwriter, composer, DJ, and a keyboard player, aside from managing his own business.
 Set up Plan B’s. Though he plans thoroughly and efficiently, it’s important to create a backup. It’s not that you’re preparing to fail; it’s about ensuring the success of your project. Just like in magic or music performance, according to Austin, it should always be a happy experience for the client. That’s one you want to evoke.
 He wanted to be rich—there’s no shame in admitting that. He decided to join DXN because they have an intact business plan and promising sales strategies. Aside from this, he also believes in the products. He professes that his performance and outlook in life have improved because of the products, especially the coffee.
  BEST MOMENTS
  “I liked the idea of attracting people in through performance.”
 “I want to be independent, and not be relying on anybody for money.”
 “I’ve always had aninterest in how things are done…I want to know how things work.”
 “As a musician, you’re there to evoke a reaction.”
 “I like seeing the improvement in their life and wellbeing.”

      <itunes:summary>Your main income stream can come from your passion projects. For our guest today, he was able to start a business and advocate for health and wellness.
 Today on the Fire In The Belly Podcast, we talk to Austin O Keeffe. Some topics that were discussed in this episode were his love for music, his childhood, his experience in sales and marketing, the importance of maintaining good health, religion, magic, and many more. 
 Tune in as your host Mighty Pete and Austin open your eyes to things that can help you know more about yourself and things that can help you find your fire in the belly. 
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  Austin’s mother was a psychiatric nurse. He recalls that when he was young, his mother had to take in mental hospital patients in their home. He observed, learned how to be hospitable, and also the circumstance opened up his eyes to the importance of mental health, aside from our physical health and wellness.
 Music is a big part of his life. At 11, he already was learning to play the accordion. At 13, he was witnessing (and slowly getting inspired) by the buskers of Dublin. Then after that, his interest in music continued. Austin is now a songwriter, composer, DJ, and a keyboard player, aside from managing his own business.
 Set up Plan B’s. Though he plans thoroughly and efficiently, it’s important to create a backup. It’s not that you’re preparing to fail; it’s about ensuring the success of your project. Just like in magic or music performance, according to Austin, it should always be a happy experience for the client. That’s one you want to evoke.

      <title>E58: Peter Duke</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/peter-duke</link>
      <description>Have you ever tried something without even knowing about it or planning for it?
 In this episode of the Fire In The Belly Podcast, Mighty Pete talks to Peter Duke about the huge benefits of being a YES Man! No, it doesn’t make you a pushover or easy. It just means you’re always ready for any challenge and unafraid to go through any obstacle. Because what do we get from new experiences? If we don’t win, we learn—and still win!
 Peter also shares some personal stories and lessons from his career journey. Find out more about his passion for sales, how he treats his clients, some theatre anecdotes, and more when you tune in.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  Peter has long been experienced in sales. He enjoys the adrenaline rush every time he lands on a big sales deal. He is enjoys that he’s able to maintain long-term connections with his clients.
 Of course, sales is not always rainbows and unicorns. Sometimes, no matter how much effort you exert, they’d still go for the competition. But regardless, one must continue to show up and be the best. You’ll never know. You might get referrals.
 Respect and compassion go a long way. Peter is very grateful for having parents that showed him how to be ‘human’—how to coexist with other people and always be understanding of them. This helped him grow his network and maintain healthy relationships too.
 Customers are always right. This means, that there is nothing that will go wrong if we suitably give them what they need and want. Do the job right. When the customer’s happy, your business will be booming.
 Say Yes. Peter has tried working in the theatre industry, which he has no expertise, as he admits. It was surprising indeed how an opportunity like that appeared in front of him, so why would Peter say no? Peter learned new skills and was also able to meet new people along the way. The great thing too is that Peter didn’t regret wandering into that unknown territory.
  BEST MOMENTS
  “Technology makes learning easier and more enjoyable.”
 “Treating people with respect can take you to so many places.”
 “The customers are my people, and I’m concerned that the job’s done right for them.”
 “I was always willing to learn and I do take it (work) professionally.”
 “If a door opens, I’ll say yes!”

Being responsible for your behaviour and choosing to be selfless makes an enormous difference. Aside from improving yourself, you also step up in the eyes of the people you value and the competition.
 Remember that everything starts within you—know your core values and beliefs.
 Other topics discussed were how respect can go a long way in maintaining healthy connections, how can you share your ‘gift’ with others, and how to deal with criticisms.  Start listening in.
 If you’ve missed the first part where Mighty Pete and Pat focus on the importance of logic, healthy relationships, storytelling, and many more, then please check the link below.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  Compete with nobody, but yourself. Be better than today’s YOU. There is still room for improvement; there are still things you can learn and add to your skill set. Don’t stop achieving, or even going near, perfection.
 Everyone has a gift. And, the key is to use your gift with passion so you can be more impactful for other people. Everyone was born in this world to make a difference. Never let anyone tell you you’re unimportant.
 Respect is very important to Pat. He sees to it that he respects every person and their opinions. Therefore, he also appreciates people who share the same values. But you should be wary about people who have ill intentions. Even though you treat them well, they only have one thing in mind, it’s making you feel bad about yourself and what you’re doing for others. Keep a distance from them.
 Spiritual, political or values differences should not be used to discriminate against other people. Respect their beliefs. As long as they’re doing a wonderful thing and does not bring any harm to others, then don’t shove your own beliefs unto them. If you think they need to be told about some things, then relay your feedback respectfully.
  BEST MOMENTS
  “Being outstanding doesn’t mean that you’re proving things to anybody else. This is just an acceptance that you accept you’re outstanding.”
 
“You can create a gift with your passion; you can create a passion with your gift.”
 
“People need to be aware of what they can become, and other people allowed them to become it.”
 “Always think that you would rather be wrong, and leave them out, than be wrong and let them in.” 
 “If something gets in the way, you find a way around it or you go through it. But it won’t stop you.”
 “People believe in you because they show up.”

      <title>E56: Johann Callaghan</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/johann-callaghan</link>
      <description>Parents have the toughest job. No question. So, in this episode of the Fire In The Belly Podcast, we hear from the Sleep Expert Johann Callaghan, talk about the importance of family health.
 Johann shares with Mighty Pete how difficult it was to experience and get through teenage pregnancy, single parenting, and even miscarriage—all these in a single lifetime. So, one of her passions right now is to empower parents like her so they can be better individuals and be great role models for their kids.
 She also discusses how to get a good night’s sleep, how to improve family dynamics, why empower yourself, how to maintain great health &amp; wellness, what is the ‘Be, Do, &amp; Have’ concept and many more. Time to listen now!
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  It’s all about perspective. If in failures you see lessons, then you’ll improve. And if you see that you need to coexist rather than to compete with one another, then you understand the surrounding people. If you always see the positive in all things, then it’s easy to live the life you want.
 Johann became a mother at a young age. She still can remember how scared she was that time, even to the point to approach her parents for help about it. How can a kid raise a kid? She also talks about how the first weeks (and months, and years) of raising a kid was—though fulfilling—very exhausting.
 Mums can provide the best things in this world for their children. But they can also forget to take care of themselves. She was losing sleep and was not eating healthily. And when she experienced miscarriage which brought her to an unfathomable turmoil, it got worse.  She’s very grateful to the people around her, that despite the cold treatment didn’t stop supporting her. She gained back her self-confidence and trust in them over time.
  
 Johann is very passionate about empowering people. You don’t need many resources—no need to book that pricey mentoring session or buy expensive aromatherapy. You have to know that you alone can change for the best and influence other people. Everything starts within you. Get comfortable with what your mind and heart are telling you.
 Take care of yourself. Johann also believes that we can be our own doctors too. Listen to your body. If you eat processed foods a lot and stay seated on your couch, then most likely, you’ll feel weak. Always aim to be better. If you’re a parent, you need to set a good example for your young ones too.
  BEST MOMENTS
  “It’s not a failure, it’s just something that didn’t work out.”
 “You don’t know how powerful we all are as individuals, as human beings…It’s all in our being, it’s not what we do to fix something.”
 “Your children are like sponges. They learn from seeing what you’re doing and how you’re behaving.”
 “Nobody’s going to hurt me.”
 “I tend to know what’s going on, that’s part of being sensitive. It’s good in its way.”

So, one of her passions right now is to empower parents like her so they can be better individuals and be great role models for their kids.</p> <p>She also discusses how to get a good night’s sleep, how to improve family dynamics, why empower yourself, how to maintain great health &amp; wellness, what is the ‘Be, Do, &amp; Have’ concept and many more. Time to listen now!</p> <p><strong>KEY TAKEAWAYS</strong></p> <ul> <li>It’s all about perspective. If in failures you see lessons, then you’ll improve. And if you see that you need to coexist rather than to compete with one another, then you understand the surrounding people. If you always see the positive in all things, then it’s easy to live the life you want.</li> <li>Johann became a mother at a young age. She still can remember how scared she was that time, even to the point to approach her parents for help about it. How can a kid raise a kid? She also talks about how the first weeks (and months, and years) of raising a kid was—though fulfilling—very exhausting.</li> <li>Mums can provide the best things in this world for their children. But they can also forget to take care of themselves. She was losing sleep and was not eating healthily. And when she experienced miscarriage which brought her to an unfathomable turmoil, it got worse. <ul> <li>She’s very grateful to the people around her, that despite the cold treatment didn’t stop supporting her. She gained back her self-confidence and trust in them over time.</li> </ul> </li> <li>Johann is very passionate about empowering people. You don’t need many resources—no need to book that pricey mentoring session or buy expensive aromatherapy. You have to know that you alone can change for the best and influence other people. Everything starts within you. Get comfortable with what your mind and heart are telling you.</li> <li>Take care of yourself. Johann also believes that we can be our own doctors too. Listen to your body. If you eat processed foods a lot and stay seated on your couch, then most likely, you’ll feel weak. Always aim to be better. If you’re a parent, you need to set a good example for your young ones too.</li> </ul> <p><strong>BEST MOMENTS</strong></p> <ul> <li><em>“It’s not a failure, it’s just something that didn’t work out.”</em></li> <li><em>“You don’t know how powerful we all are as individuals, as human beings…It’s all in our being, it’s not what we do to fix something.”</em></li> <li><em>“Your children are like sponges. They learn from seeing what you’re doing and how you’re behaving.”</em></li> <li><em>“Nobody’s going to hurt me.”</em></li> <li><em>“I tend to know what’s going on, that’s part of being sensitive. It’s good in its way.”</em></li> </ul> <p><strong>VALUABLE RESOURCES</strong></p> <ul> <li>Listen to the Empowering Family Health Podcast on Spotify: <a href="https://open.spotify.com/show/4no0Zdz5vVYaqjgCKCJANG">https://open.spotify.com/show/4no0Zdz5vVYaqjgCKCJANG</a>

      <title>E55: Andrew Dobbin</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/andrew-dobbin</link>
      <description>No successful entrepreneur in the world ever achieved what they did and reached wherever they are without any help… People need people. Often, they have loved ones for the social &amp; emotional support, a team to man operations, investors to finance their capital, and of course, clients and customers that they need to serve.
 In this episode of the Fire In The Belly Podcast, Mighty Pete talks to Andrew Dobbin of the Business Mind Set about networking strategies. Learn how you can get the most out of once-in-a-lifetime opportunities, so you can land your biggest investor or find your partner-in-crime. Andrew helps a lot of business owners grow their network, aside from giving them advice in marketing and other operations.
 So, get inspired when you listen in right now. Some other topics discussed were: The Business Mindset, creating value for other people, mentoring, the importance of first impressions, where to get referrals, and many more!
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  Purpose – This is the first key thing that you need to figure out when you’re about to start networking. Why do it in the first place? Most attend networking events with an open mind and zero to low expectations of what they’ll get from it. This works. But learn how to utilise every event, every platform you join by curating a virtual checklist of goals. It doesn’t matter if they are small or big.
 Who do you want to speak to? Are you looking for investors or clients first? We stop wasting time (plus other resources) and grab opportunities when they are presented when we know what we want to achieve. Do your research beforehand.
 Give and receive. It’s more fulfilling to participate when you also have something valuable to offer. We aren’t parasites. Colleagues will immediately shun away from such people. Don’t be someone who you hate, as they say.
 Ready your elevator pitch. Print out the business cards you’ll hand out. Write down notes (i.e. contacts) from time to time when needed. You have to seize this opportunity!  Andrew’s note: People still use business cards, so bring a few every time. Also, you can put your photo on it, so they could easily remember to ring you up.
  
 How do we increase the trust between the prospects we meet? Show off your credibility, your experience, your stories, etc. And be presentable. Dress nicely—like you’re meeting one of your best clients every single time. It’s all about making a great first impression.
  BEST MOMENTS
  “If I give you business, then you shall be able to give me business.”
 “Where are your customers’ networking… where are they going to be?”
 “When you look good, you feel good.”
 “Business cards help people connect and remember.”
 “Branding is all about leaving an imprint in someone’s mind.”

      <title>E54: Ronia Fraser</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/ronia-fraser</link>
      <description>You’re worthy. Always remember that.
 In this episode of the Fire In The Belly Podcast, Ronia Fraser joins us to share how she supports women in their healing journey after getting out of abusive relationships. It’s truly unimaginable how people are capable of hurting others, both physically and emotionally. After detaching from abusive relationships, it can be extremely difficult to live and to ‘be free’ without being haunted.
 Let Coach Roni help you find yourself again. Today, she discusses narcissism, narcissistic abuse, finding ways to remove the feeling of unworthiness and more.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  It’s not just physical abuse. Someone can inflict invisible emotional wounds to another person. We aren’t always aware that it’s happening to us. The next thing we know, we are already adapting to this new environment (with the narcissist) and already acquiring new behaviours.
 Ronia’s expertise with narcissistic abuse recovery was something that came from her own experience. Her partners before didn’t value her and their relationship. Imagine feeling worthless just because you can’t give what your partner is asking. That’s what Ronia felt.
 It was difficult for Ronia to get out of the situation. And the healing phase after every breakup is even harder when there has been abuse. So, as much as possible, she wants every woman to know that there’s help available when they need it.
 Be wary of ‘unhealthy programming’ within yourself. Some of us experienced trauma (which can be unrelated to our relationship) that greatly affected how we view ourselves. We feel unworthy of great things; we feel we don’t deserve to be loved. But that shouldn’t be it. Be more compassionate with yourself. It’s not you who should be suffering for others’ bad behaviours.
 When we experience trauma, some aspects of our life change—our view on things, our behaviour, and even our self-identity. It becomes difficult to distinguish what’s right and what’s not right for us. We hide and refuse to speak up. Ronia wants you to know that there are people like her who fully understand, and you can reach out to them whenever you’re ready.
  BEST MOMENTS
  “Language is very powerful.” 
 “If you want to have substantial relationships, obviously there needs to be more than partying.”
 “When you stop fighting against what’s inside of you, you surrender, and accept whatever’s going to be.”
 “There are scary things buried in all of us and it’s scary to dig them out.”
 “If I stop working on myself right now—with my Buddhist practice, my self-care practice—I wouldn’t be sitting here the way I am.”

      <itunes:summary>You’re worthy. Always remember that.
 In this episode of the Fire In The Belly Podcast, Ronia Fraser joins us to share how she supports women in their healing journey after getting out of abusive relationships. It’s truly unimaginable how people are capable of hurting others, both physically and emotionally. After detaching from abusive relationships, it can be extremely difficult to live and to ‘be free’ without being haunted.
 Let Coach Roni help you find yourself again. Today, she discusses narcissism, narcissistic abuse, finding ways to remove the feeling of unworthiness and more.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  It’s not just physical abuse. Someone can inflict invisible emotional wounds to another person. We aren’t always aware that it’s happening to us. The next thing we know, we are already adapting to this new environment (with the narcissist) and already acquiring new behaviours.
 Ronia’s expertise with narcissistic abuse recovery was something that came from her own experience. Her partners before didn’t value her and their relationship. Imagine feeling worthless just because you can’t give what your partner is asking. That’s what Ronia felt.
 It was difficult for Ronia to get out of the situation. And the healing phase after every breakup is even harder when there has been abuse. So, as much as possible, she wants every woman to know that there’s help available when they need it.
 Be wary of ‘unhealthy programming’ within yourself. Some of us experienced trauma (which can be unrelated to our relationship) that greatly affected how we view ourselves. We feel unworthy of great things; we feel we don’t deserve to be loved. But that shouldn’t be it. Be more compassionate with yourself. It’s not you who should be suffering for others’ bad behaviours.
 When we experience trauma, some aspects of our life change—our view on things, our behaviour, and even our self-identity. It becomes difficult to distinguish what’s right and what’s not right for us. We hide and refuse to speak up. Ronia wants you to know that there are people like her who fully understand, and you can reach out to them whenever you’re ready.
  BEST MOMENTS
  “Language is very powerful.” 
 “If you want to have substantial relationships, obviously there needs to be more than partying.”
 “When you stop fighting against what’s inside of you, you surrender, and accept whatever’s going to be.”
 “There are scary things buried in all of us and it’s scary to dig them out.”
 “If I stop working on myself right now—with my Buddhist practice, my self-care practice—I wouldn’t be sitting here the way I am.”

      <title>E53: Flora Russo</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/flora-russo</link>
      <description>Being in a foreign country didn’t stop our guest, Flora Russo, from chasing her passions. Today on the Fire In The Belly Podcast, Flora shares with Pete stories on her move to UK (from Italy) and her interesting property journey.
 Some wouldn’t even imagine starting a business in a place they don’t know. But Flora is strong-willed and quick-witted. When she had the inkling she would flourish in property investment in London, she learned as much as she could. She mastered the buy-to-let property strategy and then expanded her property portfolio in just two years.
 Do you have the guts to the same? Learn more about Flora and property sourcing when you tune in today.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  When Flora’s passionate about something, she moves quickly—she doesn’t need convincing from others. When it comes to earning, she grinds hard. Her only problem, though not that big, was that traditional schooling didn’t really work for her. If she doesn’t see that she’s getting the value (as she should), she loses interest. So, she learned on her own by getting herself out there.
 Where is your place? Flora is an Italian entrepreneur who’s staying in London. Though her loved ones and friends are back in her hometown, she doesn’t see continuing her life and career there anymore. She explored, tried to learn different cultures, and found somewhere she can be herself. Wherever she’s happy, it’s where she stays.
 Working for yourself, having a business of your own, sounds very inviting. But let’s not kid ourselves, it’s not that easy. With hope and positivity should come action. Have a thorough plan beforehand.
 Flora also focuses on single-let for families. It’s key to research the area beforehand. Flora had to talk to the neighbourhood, observe as well as keep up to date on the latest property news.
 Flora is now an expert in buy-to-let’s and is very excited to explore other strategies. She wants to expand her portfolio into something big so that someday, as she says, she doesn’t have to worry about getting out of bed to work.
  BEST MOMENTS
  “I learned so much after what happened… about what I really want to be and what I don’t want to be.”
 “We should teach more about business at school and how to manage your money because that’s probably most the important thing to know in life.”
 “Does money really make you happy? Of course, it does… but it’s not everything.”
 “I’m going to do everything I want in life.”
 “I leverage as much as possible because I believe I have to focus my time and energy in finding new investors.”

      <title>E52: Christopher Wojnar</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/christopher-wojnar</link>
      <description>What can 48 years in business teach you?
 In this episode of the Fire In The Belly Podcast, Chris Wojnar takes the hot seat. As an entrepreneur, a mentor, and also as a father, he has so many stories that you can learn from. Everything wasn’t always glittering with gold—Chris has experienced his fair share of failures. But he has always been able to get back up because of his support network, mentors and his own passion for self improvement and learning.
 Tune in to learn more about his journey, his unwavering passion, how he easily adapted to innovations, and his advice to aspiring entrepreneurs.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  Things have changed. Chris has been selling decorating and design products for a long time, and he experienced drastic change ups in his business too. Previously he spoke to clients face to face, now a significant amount of his business is taken online.
 With his years of experience, he advises entrepreneurs to not chase for the high net worth and fame but rather aim to produce more value for other people. It is where his fulfilment lies—helping others.
 There will be terrible days…but those don’t erase all the great times. Take opportunities to learn. Your journey will be easier of you can accept bumps in the road. Stay strong and keep moving for that fire in the belly.

      <title>E51: Preston Weekes</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/preston-weekes</link>
      <description>In this episode of the Fire In The Belly Podcast, Mighty Pete talks to Preston Weekes, the CEO of Operations X. Preston and his team provide strategies for businesses to help them overcome challenges. Today, he lets us in on his personal story—from his background in car deals, to him owning his own company, to coaching people and so much more.
 Preston is an advocate of relentless improvement. He has experienced downtimes too. And as someone who also had a hard time lifting himself up, he gives some tips on how you can stay focused on achieving more. Tune in now to learn from Preston.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  Traditional schooling might not be the perfect setup for those who have ADHD and/or learning disorders. Though Preston is an eager and a quick learner, the strict schedules and deadlines don’t work for him.
 Aim for relentless improvement. If you’re not progressing, you’re digressing. There should always be upgrades, no matter how big or little. Preston consumes as many books as possible, and try to learn the innovations that emerge from time to time.
 
Sales is life. You do it every time, you aren’t just aware of it. We go out everyday try to impress the world for more greatness or just maintain the healthy relationships we have. We like being loved and appreciated, so we go the extra mile to better ourselves.
 It becomes easier to uplift the people around you when you are being authentic. You’re making it hard for yourself, for the people around you to trust you, if you can’t even walk the talk. Know your values and visions to effectively make the positive change. Don’t skip the most important step.
 His clients trust him so much because he knows and can deliver. From CEOs to teams to individuals. He doesn’t fail anyone. His advice: always get it done. Learn to value integrity more.
 Any traumas and/or past mistakes that happened in the past are just that—don’t let them affect your present and your future. What you take from them are lessons, not resentments and regrets. It’s difficult but you have to take a step forward every time.
  BEST MOMENTS
  “I’m constantly learning; I’m constantly improving.”
 “I’m a believer that sales is life!”
 “I’ve changed all these people’s lives, because I provide them an opportunity to do something—an opportunity to make money, an opportunity to be a part of a vision.”
 “Everyone has a story.”

      <title>E50: Who is Mighty Pete? Interview with Pat Slattery</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/who-is-mighty-pete-interview-with-pat-slattery</link>
      <description>To be alive, you have to find your fire in the belly. –Pete Lonton
 Welcome back. In this episode of the Fire In The Belly Podcast, we turn the tables! It’s Pete who answers all the questions. Our guest host for today is the renowned international speaker and entrepreneur Pat Slattery. He gets to ask the quick-fire questions that Pete usually throws to his guests, as well as the more interesting and controversial ones. 
 Start listening in as Pete goes back and retells his life from decades ago, way back before he built his brand and started achieving his passion-driven goals. Other topics discussed are the importance of integrity, communication, and intuition. Be inspired now!
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  The taller person sees everything first. This can also be true in a figurative sense. Pete is proud that he has always been in touch with his intuition therefore increasing his self-awareness and chiselling his self-identity. No one is more at advantage than someone who walks and speaks taller.

 Fire In The Belly was a concept that was created in February of last year. Upon realising that he had done a lot in his lifetime he wanted to share his story and help other people too. He wanted people to know that if he could do it, then they could do it too.
 Why does Pete always ask his guests if they love themselves? According to Pete, the very origin or the very spark of your passion comes from self-love. It’s hard to put your full effort into something when you don’t love yourself. 
  It also affects how people treat you. How can people around you trust and respect you if you don’t do it yourself? They need to see that glow from within to open up themselves too.
  Integrity is something that Pete holds dear to his heart. He treats it as one of the significant foundational values of his. It has helped him achieve his goals. And he wants to teach his kids (and mentees) about its importance, so they can thrive too.
 Mighty Pete’s superpower is having meaningful conversations. He’s very confident about how he communicates. Not only does he have the ability to know the language of the other party and ask the right questions, but he can also feel and read them.

      <itunes:summary>To be alive, you have to find your fire in the belly. –Pete Lonton
 Welcome back. In this episode of the Fire In The Belly Podcast, we turn the tables! It’s Pete who answers all the questions. Our guest host for today is the renowned international speaker and entrepreneur Pat Slattery. He gets to ask the quick-fire questions that Pete usually throws to his guests, as well as the more interesting and controversial ones. 
 Start listening in as Pete goes back and retells his life from decades ago, way back before he built his brand and started achieving his passion-driven goals. Other topics discussed are the importance of integrity, communication, and intuition. Be inspired now!
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  The taller person sees everything first. This can also be true in a figurative sense. Pete is proud that he has always been in touch with his intuition therefore increasing his self-awareness and chiselling his self-identity. No one is more at advantage than someone who walks and speaks taller.

 Fire In The Belly was a concept that was created in February of last year. Upon realising that he had done a lot in his lifetime he wanted to share his story and help other people too. He wanted people to know that if he could do it, then they could do it too.
 Why does Pete always ask his guests if they love themselves? According to Pete, the very origin or the very spark of your passion comes from self-love. It’s hard to put your full effort into something when you don’t love yourself. 
  It also affects how people treat you. How can people around you trust and respect you if you don’t do it yourself? They need to see that glow from within to open up themselves too.
  Integrity is something that Pete holds dear to his heart. He treats it as one of the significant foundational values of his. It has helped him achieve his goals. And he wants to teach his kids (and mentees) about its importance, so they can thrive too.
 Mighty Pete’s superpower is having meaningful conversations. He’s very confident about how he communicates. Not only does he have the ability to know the language of the other party and ask the right questions, but he can also feel and read them.

      <title>E49: Aron O'Dowd</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/aron-odowd</link>
      <description>In this episode, Pete talks to the host of The Aron O’Dowd Show, Aron! Aside from putting success stories of different people in the spotlight, Aron is also very passionate with rowing. It’s a fun and competitive sport which he loves. He talks about this in the episode as well as his love for Pokemon (and everything about video games), food, travelling and more!
 Aron is a living proof that your fire in the belly can help you in attaining more wealth, upping personal development, and fulfilling life’s purpose. Tune in now to learn and get inspired!
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  Aron lived in Taiwan for quite some time. There, he learned about a new culture and grew new connections. It is also where some of his passions sprouted. Aron has a huge appreciation for e-sports and video games, it’s how he bonded with his colleagues.
 Video games also got him interested to the world of sports. He likes the adrenaline rush that every extreme sport offers. Aron’s most passionate about rowing, in particular. He put so much time into it, learned everything all about it, and increasingly got better at it.
 One key piece of advice he gives for assertive go-getters like him is to take a break. Sometimes, we might feel that we don’t need it, but our body and mind need the rest to detox and re-energise. Burnout is real. We have to avoid it as much as possible so we can stay efficient in achieving our dreams.
 Don’t stay in one place; keep moving! You’re lucky if you have the right people around you who can motivate you to keep pushing forward no matter how uncomfortable it is.
 This might surprise people, but aside from fitness, he is also very interested in food and everything about it. He likes cooking, studying about it, and of course, eating it. He likes the chemistry that happens and the culture that goes with every dish.
  BEST MOMENTS
  “Travel teaches you a lot more about people and cultures than textbooks do.”
 “I’m more of an eater than a chef.”
 “I’m a very curious and passionate guy, and that’s who I am.”
 “The choice is in the individual how quick they want to see progress.”

      <title>E48: Oskar Lipinski</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/oskar-lipinski</link>
      <description>There is no age limit when it comes to becoming an entrepreneur.
 Today on the Fire In The Belly Podcast, Pete talks to Oskar Lapinski, the owner of the Irish clothing brand Club De Luxe. Oskar, in his early 20s, built his brand in 2018. And, in just two years in, Oskar and his team are already shipping their products all over the world. Not only do they sell comfortability and quality, but they also encourage people to dream big, to don’t think about limits the society imposes.
 Learn more about his brand, his entrepreneurial journey, the importance of mindset, the learning styles, and more when you tune in.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  There’s a right style of learning for you. Know it early on so you get the best out of any classes or mentorship you get into. There are seven learning styles: aural, visual, kinaesthetic, auditory, verbal, logical, social, or solitary.
 You need a goal. What’s the reason you wake up every morning? Find what motivates you to move. Live a purpose-driven life, as they say. For Oskar, achieving something every single day, even how small it is, is what makes him truly happy.
 Believe in yourself. You won’t achieve anything even with the help of others if you doubt your capabilities. Who cares if you are just a beginner? Every single successful professional/entrepreneur had to start somewhere. Be confident in what you can offer and always stay motivated.
 Age doesn’t matter—in relationships, in business, in sports, and in any new opportunities you want to explore. If we box ourselves, limit ourselves, to what we can, then we’ll end up regretting stuff. You can achieve anything as young or as old as you want.
  BEST MOMENTS
  “Mindset is the most powerful thing we have.”
 “Whatever energy I put in is whatever energy I put out.”
 “I bounced back higher than before.”
 “The goal of a purpose is to grow.”
 “Take the leap of faith… try the recommended book or video.”

      <title>E46: Ashley Teer</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/ashley-teer</link>
      <description>It’s only when we lose everything that we realise how much we’ve taken things for granted.
 In today’s episode of the Fire In The Belly Podcast, Pete talks to Ashley Teer on everything about spirituality. She also shares some personal stories that led her to tap into her inner psychic. Ashley recognises the power of having sovereignty over your body and mind (as it has helped her too) so she wants to help other people harness theirs.
 Aside from self-sovereignty, another key takeaway from the discussion is the importance of having balance. Most of us ‘automatically’ operate on logic because that’s what we were told to do by society. Ashley encourages you to touch on your emotional side more as that’s where fulfilment and healing come from.
 You can tune in now for more discussions on meditation, hypnotherapy and more!
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  
 Ashley’s life has been so bumpy for so long that she didn’t even dream she’d have a bright future. She thought of herself as unworthy of the things she received. It was tough. But everything took a 180 degree turn when she discovered the ways of healing.
 There’s more to life than chasing the most-sought fortune, wealth, and whatnots. We need to get acquainted with our emotional side too if we want balance. Success doesn’t have one strict recipe to be followed, and more importantly, it is unique for every person. Know what can fulfil you and satisfy you, that’s the secret.
 
Intuition is the quintessential gut feeling. Listen to it. Feel where your body is moving, what makes your heart flutter, and what your mind is telling you. Don’t let others dictate what you will do because it will just turn into regrets.
 Aim for clarity of the headspace. Ashley suggests you get into meditation, any mindfulness activities, and even physical exercise. You are the captain of your ship—your body. Practice self-sovereignty. Be conscious and responsible for how you treat yourselves.
 Tap into your inner self. Though she appreciates that people go to her for readings, for guidance, she highly suggests that you detach from external help slowly when it comes to understanding yourself. You have your own power. Believe that.
  BEST MOMENTS
  “Nobody’s gonna tell me any different.”
 “An empath is someone who can connect easily with people’s emotions.”
 “Nobody’s future is set in stone.”
 “We’re all from different backgrounds. Some are naturally gifted; some people have to work hard to get it.” 
 “If you put your work in, you’ll get the results.”

      <title>E45: Ruth Young</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/ruth-young</link>
      <description>It takes a lot understanding and communication skills for educators, trainers, and parents to establish a connection with teens and young adults.
 In this episode of the Fire In The Belly Podcast, Ruth Young, External Consultant at Young Enterprise Northern Island and Managing Director at Ruthless Media, talks about her relentless help for the youth of Northern Island. For others, they term it as ‘difficult behaviour’, for Ruth, it was just plain difference of personalities. If we learn to listen to their emotions and their needs, the amount of value we can impart to them will be unlimited. Ruth has been forever passionate in helping people.
 Ruth also shares how she started her own company, The Ruthless Media, and her own brand Wee Jowee. Listen in as she shares her successes and learnings in both life and business.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  Ruth’s family is very important to her. She’s very grateful to have parents who provided for her and also shaped her beliefs and values as early as possible. They were a big influence in igniting her fire in the belly, which is helping other people.
 She was always active in the church. She spent the first part of her career helping young people. Understanding and communicating with the youth without being authoritative is a gift. It was always easy for Ruth to empathise and connect with them.  She also worked for The Bytes Project in providing training for the youth. And now, she serves as the External Consultant of Young Enterprise Northern Island.
  
 But Ruth had to move Church due to the attitudes her previous church had on those who remarry. This brought a realisation to her, that her faith in God is greater than anything—greater than other people’s judgment on her.
 Ruth also creates her content at Wee JoWee and shares there her motherhood stories. Though giving birth is one of the most wondrous things, it can also be difficult for mothers to manage stress when raising up a child. Ruth shares her learnings through her vlog so other mothers who need guidance can find it easily online.
  BEST MOMENTS
  “I just want to be that person that helps them and make everything better.”
 “Giving doesn’t mean giving all of yourself.”
 “My faith isn’t necessarily in people; my faith is in God.”
 “I don’t shove my beliefs down people’s throat…I’m always open to conversations ton understand other people’s views.”

      <title>E44: Diane Dewey</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/diane-dewey</link>
      <description>Can people come back from the dead?
 Author Diane Dewey never expected that she would meet her biological parents in her late 40s. She was led to believe her entire life that they were both dead. It was indeed a shock. But for Diane, she immediately got the urge to know them more so she could learn more about her roots and confront past trauma. Diane believes that it is only when we acknowledge a troubled past that we are then able to move on and heal for a better future.
 Diane also talks about her passion, visual arts. She believes that there is this unexplainable emotional exchange between the artist and the viewer/reader/etc. Listen in now to know more about her interesting life in this episode of the Fire In The Belly Podcast!
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  It was at the age of 47 when Diane met her biological father. She wasn’t expecting this. She didn’t know that she would experience this kind of ‘plot twist’ in her life, especially at her age.
 After meeting her biological dad, she felt compelled to find her biological mother too—to learn more about her and to know more about her roots.
 Fear of abandonment is very common in adoption stories and the fear sometimes appears in adulthood. Diane advises that after a failed relationship, we should always choose to invest fully in love again.
 Further advice from Diane: Slow down, and listen to what your mind and heart are telling you. Sometimes, we’re too caught up in the hustle and bustle that we forget to keep ourselves in check. Am I still passionate about what I’m doing? Is this still my goal for the future?
 Though it may look absurd for some, to tell her full story in detail, Diane feels that this is what she’s meant to do in life. She wants to tell the world about her teachings and her healing process. She believes that people will relate to her story in so many ways.
 We all have flaws. Diane wants you to realise you have the power to own your own story and transform them into something valuable and impactful too.
  BEST MOMENTS
  “Fire in the belly is not necessarily wanting to have more. Sometimes, it’s wanting to get things out.”
 
“Intuition is a form of guidance offered by your psyche.”

 “Your relationships in your whole life can be impacted by early abandonment.”
 “Regulate yourself emotionally.”
 “Your values are your voids too when you don’t allow feedback.”
 “Learning is always a form of communication.”

        <![CDATA[<p>Can people come back from the dead?</p> <p>Author Diane Dewey never expected that she would meet her biological parents in her late 40s. She was led to believe her entire life that they were both dead. It was indeed a shock. But for Diane, she immediately got the urge to know them more so she could learn more about her roots and confront past trauma. Diane believes that it is only when we acknowledge a troubled past that we are then able to move on and heal for a better future.</p> <p>Diane also talks about her passion, visual arts. She believes that there is this unexplainable emotional exchange between the artist and the viewer/reader/etc. Listen in now to know more about her interesting life in this episode of the Fire In The Belly Podcast!</p> <p><strong>KEY TAKEAWAYS</strong></p> <ul> <li>It was at the age of 47 when Diane met her biological father. She wasn’t expecting this. She didn’t know that she would experience this kind of ‘<em>plot twist’</em> in her life, especially at her age.</li> <li>After meeting her biological dad, she felt compelled to find her biological mother too—to learn more about her and to know more about her roots.</li> <li>Fear of abandonment is very common in adoption stories and the fear sometimes appears in adulthood. Diane advises that after a failed relationship, we should always choose to invest fully in love again.</li> <li>Further advice from Diane: Slow down, and listen to what your mind and heart are telling you. Sometimes, we’re too caught up in the hustle and bustle that we forget to keep ourselves in check. Am I still passionate about what I’m doing? Is this still my goal for the future?</li> <li>Though it may look absurd for some, to tell her full story in detail, Diane feels that this is what she’s meant to do in life. She wants to tell the world about her teachings and her healing process. She believes that people will relate to her story in so many ways.</li> <li>We all have flaws. Diane wants you to realise you have the power to own your own story and transform them into something valuable and impactful too.</li> </ul> <p><strong>BEST MOMENTS</strong></p> <ul> <li><em>“Fire in the belly is not necessarily wanting to have more. Sometimes, it’s wanting to get things out.”</em></li> <li>
<em>“</em><em>Intuition is a form of guidance offered by your psyche</em><em>.”</em>
</li> <li><em>“Your relationships in your whole life can be impacted by early abandonment.”</em></li> <li><em>“Regulate yourself emotionally.”</em></li> <li><em>“Your values are your voids too when you don’t allow feedback.”</em></li> <li><em>“Learning is always a form of communication.”</em></li> </ul> <p><strong>VALUABLE RESOURCES</strong></p> <ul> <li>Read Fixing the Fates by Diane Dewey.

      <title>E43: Christy Doherty</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/043-fitb-christy-doherty</link>
      <description>In this episode of the Fire In The Belly Podcast, Pete interviews Christy Doherty, aka the Sales Fighter, about his life story and sales success journey. He talks about the power of having an unstoppable mindset, the benefits of goal-setting, and the importance of persistence in sales and more.
 His determination to learn never stopped, and will never stop. That’s what Christy wants you to do too, be persistent in achieving your goals.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  Christy’s first job was working in his dad’s business. It was where he honed his people skills as he was dealing with customers all the time. This was also when he realised he wanted to continue his dad’s business.
 He has always dreamed of being a successful entrepreneur—increasing his business’ sales, getting busy with managing operations, and leading his team.
 Hard work always pays off. When he was working with Seagate, he used his free time during the night to learn new stuff and add more to his skillset. And, when a colleague of his offered to train him about sales, he just went for it. It was then he discovered that he has a knack for sales.
 Christy knew nothing about the art of goal setting before. So, although he can felt that there was more he could do, it was difficult for him to move forward. Where? Why? These should be the first things that one needs to figure out. It’s easy to plan how you can get there when there’s clarity and determination within you.
 Persistence is one of the key things a salesperson should have. Closing a deal doesn’t happen in a snap, most of the time. The truth is when you’re still in the first phase, you’ll encounter more rejections. But a sales fighter does not back down. If you know what you sell, and you know it could be beneficial to someone, then persuade them by all means.  This also applies to your career. If you want to be promoted, then offer more.
  
 
Think and Grow Rich by Napoleon Hill was an enormous influence in his life. He learned about the power of mindset. One can build a successful path if he believes he can manifest it.
  BEST MOMENTS
  “My vocation pretty much is a vacation.”
 “The why comes before how.”
 “That’s the fire in the belly...jumping off the bed and shouting, ‘I can’t wait for today!’.”
 “No matter where you start in a company, it’s down to you where it goes, and where it takes you.”
 “I was able to change my self-image through the ‘mental movies’, the affirmations, the visualisations, etc.”

      <title>E42: Mark Victor Hansen and Crystal Dwyer Hansen</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/042-mark-victor-hansen-and-crystal-dwyer-hansen</link>
      <description>In this episode of the Fire In The Belly, Pete talks to Mark Victor Hansen and Crystal Dwyer Hansen about how can a simple act of ASKING make your dreams be your destiny. Instead of regretting and thinking about “­what could have been”, why not take the initiative now to learn more about yourself and the path you must take?
 According to Mark and Crystal, there are only three distinct channels through which you can ask: Ask Yourself, Ask Others, and Ask God. Easy to remember categories, right? Know everything about the process so you can reveal to yourself what your true destiny is today. We will never know what’s in store for us if we stay mum about everything.
 Also, you can read more about the secret art of asking in their recently-published book (see link below)!
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  What does fire in the belly mean for them?  Mark: You’re born with it. It teaches you how to ask for self-discovery.
 Crystal: It’s the desire to wanting more and to never stop.
  
 There are 3 channels in which you need to learn to ask:  Ask yourself: We need to listen to what our mind and heart are telling us. That’s when we know what moves us. Also, there will always be things that you haven’t discovered yet about yourself.
 Ask others: We can only bring value and impact to other people when we start minding what others say. And most likely, these ideas, thoughts, or opinions will influence you big time. There is always a balance.
 Ask God: Crystal believes that spiritual guidance can develop your intuition. Belief and affirmations work in improving your mindset and wellbeing.
  
 Each channel is equally important. When you master each, it’s easy to get to know yourself, to chase for what you want, and to fully accept what you deserve.
 What holds you back from asking and knowing? Fear and doubts are big roadblocks for most. You won’t know their answer unless you try. And if it wasn’t something you weren’t hoping for, a NO should not affect your progress. Move on. Find someone (or something) who’d bring that desired impact in your life.
 During tough times—especially right now, we’re amid the coronavirus pandemic—questions change and the answers will change. We should be adaptable and be ready to reinvent ourselves under any given situation. There will be times that what happens won’t be what you’re expecting.
  BEST MOMENTS
  “There’s something out there that is magical. There is something out there to see that I haven’t seen or done.”
 “Children were born ‘master askers’ because they don’t have any barriers.”
 “We need that human connection.”
 “When they learn how to ask, they will transform their life, they will be unique and their future is inevitably successful.”
 “When you ask something from someone, you’ll want to provide some value of our own. That makes the cycle balanced.”

      <itunes:summary>In this episode of the Fire In The Belly, Pete talks to Mark Victor Hansen and Crystal Dwyer Hansen about how can a simple act of ASKING make your dreams be your destiny. Instead of regretting and thinking about “­what could have been”, why not take the initiative now to learn more about yourself and the path you must take?
 According to Mark and Crystal, there are only three distinct channels through which you can ask: Ask Yourself, Ask Others, and Ask God. Easy to remember categories, right? Know everything about the process so you can reveal to yourself what your true destiny is today. We will never know what’s in store for us if we stay mum about everything.
 Also, you can read more about the secret art of asking in their recently-published book (see link below)!
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  What does fire in the belly mean for them?  Mark: You’re born with it. It teaches you how to ask for self-discovery.
 Crystal: It’s the desire to wanting more and to never stop.
  
 There are 3 channels in which you need to learn to ask:  Ask yourself: We need to listen to what our mind and heart are telling us. That’s when we know what moves us. Also, there will always be things that you haven’t discovered yet about yourself.
 Ask others: We can only bring value and impact to other people when we start minding what others say. And most likely, these ideas, thoughts, or opinions will influence you big time. There is always a balance.
 Ask God: Crystal believes that spiritual guidance can develop your intuition. Belief and affirmations work in improving your mindset and wellbeing.
  
 Each channel is equally important. When you master each, it’s easy to get to know yourself, to chase for what you want, and to fully accept what you deserve.
 What holds you back from asking and knowing? Fear and doubts are big roadblocks for most. You won’t know their answer unless you try. And if it wasn’t something you weren’t hoping for, a NO should not affect your progress. Move on. Find someone (or something) who’d bring that desired impact in your life.
 During tough times—especially right now, we’re amid the coronavirus pandemic—questions change and the answers will change. We should be adaptable and be ready to reinvent ourselves under any given situation. There will be times that what happens won’t be what you’re expecting.
  BEST MOMENTS
  “There’s something out there that is magical. There is something out there to see that I haven’t seen or done.”
 “Children were born ‘master askers’ because they don’t have any barriers.”
 “We need that human connection.”
 “When they learn how to ask, they will transform their life, they will be unique and their future is inevitably successful.”
 “When you ask something from someone, you’ll want to provide some value of our own. That makes the cycle balanced.”

      <title>E41: Donna Kennedy</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/donna-kennedy</link>
      <description>Donna Kennedy is a six-time bestselling author, psychologist, and life coach. She has helped professionals and different companies achieve unlimited growth.
 In this episode of Fire In The Belly Podcast, we hear Donna share her personal story (of overcoming challenges in her life) and her mission to be a beacon to other people. Learn about how she dealt with the trauma she has experienced and her battle with anorexia. Currently, she’s been helping other people by empowering them. So that like her, they can also get through whatever challenges life brings.
 Get your headphones on, cause aside from the topics mentioned above, she also talks about having core values, levelling up your mindset, how to be grateful and more.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  Mental health should always be a priority. Donna herself had a tough time growing up—she experienced abuse at an early age and also suffered from an eating disorder. After recovery she promised not to downplay anything that happens to her body and wellbeing anymore. It was now time to take more care of it.
 Donna is a mental health advocate. She is using her voice to bring awareness about it to other people. If there is one thing that massively helped her, it’s the people who have been supportive of her journey. They weren’t ashamed of her at all. And that’s why Donna’s fire in the belly focuses on this now—no one should feel alone.
 Wherever your destination is, you need to have an unstoppable mindset. Donna also helps her clients traverse their paths regardless of what it is. You don’t have to present a grand plan. And if you surround yourself with the people who can raise your frequency—including a mentor like Donna—then you’re off at a wonderful start.
 Donna’s core values:  Love for people
 Integrity
 Honesty
  
 Be grateful. Acknowledge what you have, so it’s easier to find your bigger purpose in life. It also becomes easier to be impactful in other people’s lives when you know your capabilities.
 Having an unstoppable mindset, unfaltering energy, and determination, this can help you deal with challenges effectively. It’s difficult to reach such a state at the beginning. But if you know how your brain works, then you can be that person.
  BEST MOMENTS
  “I love a lot of people, but I learned that you have to be selective of the people you let in your life.”
 
“We need to be satisfied as basic human beings.”
 
“The easiest time to create change is to create it in a moment of heightened feeling.”
 “Each moment that you breathe is a reminder you’re a miracle.”
 “Success means waking up in the morning and knowing you can be the best you can be at any given moment.”

      <title>E40: Boardroom Talk - Pat Slattery - The Outstanding Series No1</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/boardroom-talk-pat-slattery-the-outstanding-series</link>
      <description>In this episode of the Fire In The Belly Podcast, Pete talks to Pat Slattery, an international business strategist and speaker, about being outstanding. So, how does one become outstanding, you ask? Pat emphasises that the first thing you have to do is to make the choice to be one—choose to BE outstanding. If you acknowledge that you are and you can be more, then everything will fall into place. It becomes easier to achieve your goal—to complete the puzzle of life.
 Other topics discussed today were how to remove toxic relationships in your life, how to choose being logical when you get emotional, what the benefits of storytelling are, and much more. Listen in now.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  It’s you who chooses your outcomes. Always choose to be outstanding in what you do. And when you acknowledge you’re outstanding, it’s easier to be strategic, to keep moving.
 Challenge yourself, if you think you’ve already achieved a task or a goal. Keep learning, keep thriving.
 Stop comparing yourself to others, and don’t let negative feedback get into your skin. If you do things intentionally for yourself, and not for anyone else, then achieving anything and conquering every challenge is more satisfying.
 Maintain a healthy and loving environment. It’s more productive when we surround ourselves who support us and cheer us up. This may be a hard pill to swallow, but there are people close to us who might derail you. When the time comes, you have you choose to sacrifice such connections.
 Be more logical when it comes to making decisions. When we let our emotions take over, mostly by fear and doubts, we arrive at wobbly decisions. We don’t want that to happen. This doesn’t mean that we should be rejecting our genuine feelings—always balance what the heart and mind wants to be outstanding.
 Master the art of storytelling. You have the vision, you have the money-making idea all cooked up. But how will you connect with people and sell them your product/service? Find what’s unique in you and what’s similar between you and your prospects. Learn their language, so you can better share your value.
  BEST MOMENTS
  “You have to live it, you have to breathe it, to become it.”
 “Nobody can be a better you than you.”
 “You don’t have to prove anything; you just have to show up with the best intention.”
 “Be the best you can be; if you’ve got nothing nice to say, don’t say it.”
 “Don’t get stuck! You can do it one step at a time.”

      <title>E39: Lucy McMullan - Only Just Media</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/lucy-mcmullan-only-just-media</link>
      <description>Learn. Connect. Create.
 If in the last episode, we talked to Alan Wallace, today on this episode of the Fire In The Belly Podcast, we talk to Lucy McMullan, the other mastermind of one of the largest social media summit, OnlyJustMedia more about social media marketing and content creation.
 Social media develops and changes rapidly, from algorithms to trends. Listen in today to hear some top tips from Lucy on how you can grow your business through social media and stay relevant.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  Lucy is the overall head of the OnlyJustMedia Summit. Eleven experts from different parts of the world were invited to educate professionals and business leaders from Belfast on everything about social media platforms.  A lot of last year’s focus was connecting social media influencers with brands, this year, it’s focused heavily on how businesses can be innovative using social media, mainly on their digital marketing campaigns.
 Some hot topics that were discussed during the summit: personal branding, podcasting, networking, video production, increasing content creation, influencing and impacting audience.
  
 Lucy was already enjoying creating contact at the age of 12, by the time she was 17 she was already networking—meeting other content creators. It was a playful hobby that became an ultimate passion.
 Lucy continues to learn about content creation—as well as teaching aspiring creators about it. Never in her life did she expect that she would be helping others whilst doing what she loves the most.
 Consume more, so you can produce more. This is Lucy’s advice. We can only learn if we try to see from our viewers’ eyes. Put your feet into their shoes, so you know the trends on the demand. After this, experiment! You must try different platforms and also different content creation strategies just to find your target market.
  BEST MOMENTS
  “Consuming is a huge part of it.” 
 “There’s a potential in every platform we don’t see.”
 “Understand what is hot in pop culture right now. What’s hot? What’s trending? What’s happening in the world online?”

Eleven experts from different parts of the world were invited to educate professionals and business leaders from Belfast on everything about social media platforms. <ul> <li>A lot of last year’s focus was connecting social media influencers with brands, this year, it’s focused heavily on how businesses can be innovative using social media, mainly on their digital marketing campaigns.</li> <li>Some hot topics that were discussed during the summit: personal branding, podcasting, networking, video production, increasing content creation, influencing and impacting audience.</li> </ul> </li> <li>Lucy was already enjoying creating contact at the age of 12, by the time she was 17 she was already networking—meeting other content creators.

      <title>E38: Social Media Content Creation With Alan Wallace</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/social-media-content-creation-with-alan-wallace</link>
      <description>In this episode of the Fire In The Belly Podcast, Alan Wallace, the co-founder of OnlyJustMedia Summit, shares about the benefits of social media and also the summit’s success this year. 
 Millions of people around the world are on at least one online platform right now…why not take advantage of this? Let Alan convince you to get on it by naming its countless benefits today. For Alan, it is the network he has built on social media that he thinks is invaluable. He also dives deep on the best type of content you should put out so you reach more people. Time to listen in!
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  
  The OnlyJustMedia Summit aims to educate content creators and businesses more about social media. Alan, together with Lucy McMullan, headed this year’s conference. They’ve gone big and invited various people from different parts of the world.
   Build relationships and increase engagements. Social media is something entrepreneurs and thought leaders should take advantage of since most people in the world own an account or two. It’s easier these days to find and connect to your target market because of these platforms.
   There are different types of content you can explore. You can post videos, audios, articles, blogs, etc., and then repurpose them to whatever you like. It’s up to you where you can best you’re your idea, product, or service. Alan’s tip too, is to link your other platform accounts to each other.
   Just get on the platform. Don’t think too much. As long as you put a quality content out there, the possibility can be endless. It might not gain traction right now, but when the time comes, someone (even just one) will need a niche information from you. You’ll get there; you’ll get better.
   
 BEST MOMENTS
  “I love working with people, I love collaborating and I love seeing things come in together.”
 “The opportunity is huge when you’re a content creator.”
 “It has never been easier to build a global brand [with social media].”

      <title>E37: Hello Paul - Paul Coghlan Life Story</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/037-mixdown</link>
      <description>Hello Paul…
 Paul Coghlan can still remember the greeting of the medical team when he finally was told about his illness and his small chance of survival. Paul had to go through treatment immediately that time, after being diagnosed with a rare case of Leukaemia. Fortunately, he battled cancer with his family on his side.
 After those tough months, he discovered more of himself—he discovered his unstoppable mindset and his relentless determination. He never knew he’d get something out of his cancer journey. Today, Paul has served as a motivational speaker to professional groups, organisations, and businesses in improving themselves. His story is now a big inspiration and motivation to his clients.
 You can listen to Paul share more on what he has learned from cancer and how he help others in this episode of the Fire In The Belly Podcast!
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  Paul’s life changed once cancer hit. He was doing fine before it—going to his everyday job, parenting and enjoying the mundane. He didn’t expect his life would make a sudden turn.
 Paul was diagnosed with Acute Myeloid Leukaemia (AML) and was told he has a very slim chance of surviving.
 There were many things pual took for granted that he could no longer do. What hurt the most whilst he was receiving treatment and recovering was the lack of fun interaction he could have with his daughter.
 A cancer journey is not something everyone can do alone. Keep your friends close. Get the emotional support and encouragement you need. Be grateful of them.
 It was very difficult for Paul, but he was always hopeful. He was more worried about the people around him—his partner, his daughter, his mum, etc. He needed to stay strong for them too.
 Are you ordinary or extraordinary? He always asks himself this. Paul can forgive himself and be ordinary in some certain stuff—his hobbies, in his lifestyle and such. But never in his career, his passion projects, and more so, in his advocacies in giving value to people. He’s happy that he is able to shine a light about cancer and also help others get through similar drawbacks.
 Trust is an important thing. When you’re in a life-threatening situation, it’s best to trust the experts. Doubts and fears will only result to a deteriorating mindset and health. Your willpower and positive mindset will greatly benefit you, and other people.
  BEST MOMENTS
  “If you’re not being real, you’re just fooling yourself and the people you surround yourself with.”
 “Work should be about doing something that you don’t hate.”
 “I like to get things done as quick as possible so I don’t have to think and worry about them.”
 “Believe in yourself, your capability, your mindset… and push through it.”
 “I am always setting a goal that is always bigger.”

 “My superpower is not being afraid to talk about my own experience ’cause I do believe I can make a difference.”
 “Mental health is extremely serious.”

        <![CDATA[<p><em>Hello Paul…</em></p> <p>Paul Coghlan can still remember the greeting of the medical team when he finally was told about his illness and his small chance of survival. Paul had to go through treatment immediately that time, after being diagnosed with a rare case of Leukaemia. Fortunately, he battled cancer with his family on his side.</p> <p>After those tough months, he discovered more of himself—he discovered his unstoppable mindset and his relentless determination. He never knew he’d get something out of his cancer journey. Today, Paul has served as a motivational speaker to professional groups, organisations, and businesses in improving themselves. His story is now a big inspiration and motivation to his clients.</p> <p>You can listen to Paul share more on what he has learned from cancer and how he help others in this episode of the Fire In The Belly Podcast!</p> <p><strong>KEY TAKEAWAYS</strong></p> <ul> <li>Paul’s life changed once cancer hit. He was doing fine before it—going to his everyday job, parenting and enjoying the mundane. He didn’t expect his life would make a sudden turn.</li> <li>Paul was diagnosed with Acute Myeloid Leukaemia (AML) and was told he has a very slim chance of surviving.</li> <li>There were many things pual took for granted that he could no longer do. What hurt the most whilst he was receiving treatment and recovering was the lack of fun interaction he could have with his daughter.</li> <li>A cancer journey is not something everyone can do alone. Keep your friends close. Get the emotional support and encouragement you need. Be grateful of them.</li> <li>It was very difficult for Paul, but he was always hopeful. He was more worried about the people around him—his partner, his daughter, his mum, etc. He needed to stay strong for them too.</li> <li>Are you ordinary or extraordinary? He always asks himself this. Paul can forgive himself and be ordinary in some certain stuff—his hobbies, in his lifestyle and such. But never in his career, his passion projects, and more so, in his advocacies in giving value to people. He’s happy that he is able to shine a light about cancer and also help others get through similar drawbacks.</li> <li>Trust is an important thing. When you’re in a life-threatening situation, it’s best to trust the experts. Doubts and fears will only result to a deteriorating mindset and health. Your willpower and positive mindset will greatly benefit you, and other people.</li> </ul> <p><strong>BEST MOMENTS</strong></p> <ul> <li><em>“If you’re not being real, you’re just fooling yourself and the people you surround yourself with.”</em></li> <li><em>“Work should be about doing something that you don’t hate.”</em></li> <li><em>“I like to get things done as quick as possible so I don’t have to think and worry about them.”</em></li> <li><em>“Believe in yourself, your capability, your mindset… and push through it.”</em></li> <li>“<em>I am always setting a goal that is always bigger.”</em>
</li> <li><em>“My superpower is not being afraid to talk about my own experience ’cause I do believe I can make a difference.”</em></li> <li><em>“Mental health is extremely serious.”</em></li> </ul> <p><strong>VALUABLE RESOURCES</strong></p> <ul> <li>Download Paul Coghlan’s FREE eBook 'How Cancer Taught Me To Be More Resilient' here: <a href="https://www.paulcoghlan.ie/">https://www.paulcoghlan.ie/</a>

      <title>E36: Niamh McAuley</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/niamh-mcauley</link>
      <description>Niamh McAuley is the video marketing manager at Purple Dots Media. Her expertise lies in camera operation and video content production.
 In this episode of the Fire In The Belly Podcast, we hear Niamh’s journey in finding her creative spirit from childhood up to now. Her creative hands are busy right now with helping her clients make better video content online. Video is one of the best marketing strategies out there, for businesses and thought leaders alike. We should know WHAT to post, HOW to take them, and WHERE to post them. Listen now to Pete and Niamh talk more about her business today!
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  Whilst every child around her was interested (or maybe programmed by adults) to pursue a career in science, Niamh didn’t get pressured. She embraced her creative soul and honed her skills. She felt she was very lucky that her family supported her craft throughout.
 Creating videos was just a hobby when she was a teenager. She didn’t know she’d one day teach people and make money.
 It hasn’t always been easy, when Niamh’s posts first started gaining traction, she also attracted a lot of cyberbullies. This forced her to stop posting on her YouTube channel for a while and take a needed break. Time healed and slowly Niamh gained back her confidence.
 In 2014, Niamh built her own brand—the Purple Dots Media. This passion project turned business involves imparting her knowledge in video content production.
 Niamh didn’t always know she could be happy in what she’s doing now—sharing her expertise while also earning money for herself. Currently, she’s conducting workshops that can help individuals produce stunning video content with just the use of a mobile phone.
 The feedback she gets from her clients has been overwhelming at times, it makes her question herself. Do I deserve all that’s happening to me right now? (Of course, she does.)
 Though Niamh has built an extensive network in her business. She can’t help to think of the ties with some clients that didn’t work. But she knows things can’t always be forced, she just moves on and is grateful with the sizeable difference she’s making in the community. She wishes them well and hopes that they find the right mentor.
 Choose Hygge (Danish word for happiness). Niamh has been quite interested in this concept lately. She has read countless books and watched informative films/videos in the past in which she credits much of her self-improvement and positive self-image. And she found out that the things she thought people don’t like (e.g. humour) are actually the things that draw people in.
  BEST MOMENTS
  “I’m inspired in making a difference.”
 “There is no such thing as perfect; there is no such thing as success. This may be controversial… but success is just an opinion.”
 “I used to think people laugh at me… Now, I just used it to my advantage.”
 “I decided to just be myself through videos in Facebook and LinkedIn.”

      <title>E35: Finding Happiness in What You Do With Gabriel DeSanti</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/gabriel-desanti</link>
      <description>“Creating something by myself and then putting it out for the world to see.”
 Gabriel DeSanti is a content creator and an influencer from NYC. At 22, he has already helped fellow content creators step up their game and served as a motivational speaker in various events. 
 In today’s episode of the Fire In The Belly Podcast, Pete and Gabe talk about his career and how he found happiness in it. He didn’t find his niche at first, but he knew he was passionate about creating and making videos, so this is where he put his focus. He wants to continue what he is doing—post more YouTube vlogs, help people, and talk more about his passions. Listen in to know more.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  
  His creative skills were something he gained in his early teens, during this time he became addicted to video games. He’d make videos on his PlayStation and share his Call of Duty and other gameplays on YouTube. Then after that phase, he explored graphic design and animation.
   He then tinkered with video cameras. He found freedom and saw more possibilities he could explore with this new tool. 
   Helping other content creators (i.e. YouTube vloggers) find their own creative process, improve their storytelling, video editing skills and increase their social media engagements is also one of Gabe’s passions.
   Gabriel’s advice so you can find your own happiness:
   Surround yourself with positive people. Gabriel sees improvement in his mindset and mood when people around him are not toxic and are motivating enough.
   Fulfil the 6 Human Needs, namely: certainty, variety, significance, love and connection, growth and contribution. When there’s something missing, then you will feel unhappy.
   
 BEST MOMENTS
  
  “Fire in the belly is whatever fires me up and whatever that is hard to switch off.”
   
  “I have so many ideas I want to make, but if I don’t make something and start, then I’m just gonna think about them forever.”
 “I’m so grateful to be able to do it at a young age.”
 “There is a cap to happiness.”

      <itunes:summary>“Creating something by myself and then putting it out for the world to see.”
 Gabriel DeSanti is a content creator and an influencer from NYC. At 22, he has already helped fellow content creators step up their game and served as a motivational speaker in various events. 
 In today’s episode of the Fire In The Belly Podcast, Pete and Gabe talk about his career and how he found happiness in it. He didn’t find his niche at first, but he knew he was passionate about creating and making videos, so this is where he put his focus. He wants to continue what he is doing—post more YouTube vlogs, help people, and talk more about his passions. Listen in to know more.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  
  His creative skills were something he gained in his early teens, during this time he became addicted to video games. He’d make videos on his PlayStation and share his Call of Duty and other gameplays on YouTube. Then after that phase, he explored graphic design and animation.
   He then tinkered with video cameras. He found freedom and saw more possibilities he could explore with this new tool. 
   Helping other content creators (i.e. YouTube vloggers) find their own creative process, improve their storytelling, video editing skills and increase their social media engagements is also one of Gabe’s passions.
   Gabriel’s advice so you can find your own happiness:
   Surround yourself with positive people. Gabriel sees improvement in his mindset and mood when people around him are not toxic and are motivating enough.
   Fulfil the 6 Human Needs, namely: certainty, variety, significance, love and connection, growth and contribution. When there’s something missing, then you will feel unhappy.
   
 BEST MOMENTS
  
  “Fire in the belly is whatever fires me up and whatever that is hard to switch off.”
   
  “I have so many ideas I want to make, but if I don’t make something and start, then I’m just gonna think about them forever.”
 “I’m so grateful to be able to do it at a young age.”
 “There is a cap to happiness.”

      <title>E34: Claire Rees</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/claire-reese</link>
      <description>The tourism industry is having a difficult time right now. The coronavirus pandemic has made it difficult for people to travel so there are no customers. But, that doesn’t mean such businesses shouldn’t be considered by aspiring entrepreneurs in the future.
 In this episode of the Fire In The Belly Podcast, Pete talks to Claire Rees, the co-director at Introbiz Sweden and Wild Spirit, about her successful journey in starting a business in the wilderness. If we’re being honest, it is not something that most entrepreneurs would risk to do. But Claire and her husband has proven that it could thrive—they grew their dog sledding business at the peak of a mountain with zero to little resources.
 Their vision to expand has been paused because of the outbreak, but they’re ready to hit the play button soon. There is a lot that any entrepreneur can learn from her experience. Listen in to know more.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  What is it like to run a business in the middle of nowhere? Claire likes the calmness and peace she feels being within nature. She’s always been thrilled to run a business where she can enjoy her freedom, help people, and also increase her wealth.
 As Claire and her husband are running 3 businesses, internet connection is vital for them. Living far from urbanised areas can be difficult. So now, they are looking at ways to further develop the place to keep every business operation up to date as well as serve as an amenity for their customers.
 Claire and her husband Richard like helping people—whether it be by helping them stay fit or giving tourists a great experience.
 In their business, it’s not just people they deal with. They are also responsible of taking good care of the dogs. For example, when dogs are having a terrible day, then they don’t want to be with other people, especially the strangers. So, the dogs’ needs have to be met first. The furry friends’ disposition and health are as important as the people’s in their business.
 Businesses should be able to run on their own, according to Claire. This is her vision. She wants to be able to enjoy her freedom and time with family, with or without having to be hands on in the business all the time, in the future.
 Claire’s advice for entrepreneurs: Always aim for self-improvement. Do what you think is right for you. don’t let someone else dictate your path. Other people’s suggestions and feedback are just that, nothing else. It’s up to you if you want to take them into consideration. But if their words just stall you or push you backwards in terms of improvement, then it’s time to rethink, and maybe shut them out.
  BEST MOMENTS
  “It always has to be sustainable. I don’t want to be reactive.”
 “The seclusion and the escape into the wild is the life we want to end up to.”
 “I love people, but I like my space.”
 “What keeps me going is the positivity that people get.”

      <title>E33: Cody Wanner</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/cody-wanner</link>
      <description>One of the best ways to put your content out there and engage more people is by using videos.
 In this episode of the Fire In The Belly Podcast, Pete talks to Cody about social media marketing and video content strategies. Cody was able to gain thousands of followers on various platforms and was named YouTube Creator On The Rise in 2018. According to Cody, the most important thing in content creation is you find a story/idea interesting enough for you and them. After this, you’re all set to go. You can now continue in the video production phase.
 There are so many things they talk about today—from the evolution of filmmaking in social media, to brain health, to not having 100% perfect content—so tune in!
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  “If there’s something you need to do, quit thinking about it and do it.” – Grant Cardone
 The way people consume media has changed a lot. For example, videos have now evolved because of the platforms available. Tiktok, a video-sharing app, has now been downloaded million times on Google Play Store and Apple iOS. People are getting more creative and resourceful to fit it all within the one-minute mark of Tiktok so they get more views.
 What should be your video content strategy? More than the skill of video editing and what not, storytelling should be the priority. It is what drives your sales. People click your content (i.e. video) and engage more because of the idea you offer. When you have the story laid out, then it’s time to get your hands on the video production.
 Cody sees he is at his best self when creating. Your ideas need to keep fresh, so do everything to boost your brain power. Proper sleep and good nutrition are always the way to go if you want to keep the neurons working. Mindfulness meditation can also help stimulate creativity too.
 Get it done first before making it 100% perfect. There will be so much time and energy—and even opportunities—wasted if you wait for an Obra maestro to appear in a day. Take it step-by-step; meet your deadlines first, keep putting out video content.
  BEST MOMENTS
  “I am not a 100% type of person into somebody else’s system; I am a type of person who creates systems and implements my own systems.”
 “Sales and creativity (or creation) are so in mesh with each other.”
 “Embrace your weirdness. Embrace what makes you ‘you’ and don’t shy away from that.”

      <title>E32: Matt Thompson - Best of Belfast</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/matt-thompson-best-of-belfast</link>
      <description>“Be who you needed when you were younger.”
 In today’s episode of The Fire in The Belly Podcast, Pete talks to Matt Thompson, the creator and host of the Best of Belfast Podcast, about his journey. He has launched a platform to showcase the beautiful places of Northern Ireland and its people. This has gained so much traction and success since it started. He has been putting the people of Belfast in the spotlight since 2017, and he doesn’t see it stopping anytime soon.
 Pete and Matt discuss many topics, including dealing with pain, healing, embracing faith, the pros and cons of technology/social media and helping others. He also gives some great tips on how to improve your creativity, so tune in today.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  The only remedy for your pain is acknowledging it and accepting that there will be changes. Living with it every single day will be hard. Many cope by escaping it, by resorting to addiction. This is very destructive since pain will always try to find its way to creep back in. And it may even hit you harder. So as early as possible, learn how to cope properly, so you finally heal.
 Walk down the path you think, and feel, is right for you. For Matt, his faith is very important to him. He’s a Christian, and there’s no shame in saying that. It gives him the power to overcome the fears &amp; doubts and to push forward in life. Find something, or someone, that will drive you to better yourself.
 Matt will always be thankful to have found a partner he’s comfortable with and complements him. His wife Jaci has opened his eyes to a wider perspective on maintaining healthy relationships, on creating more worthwhile connections, and perhaps most significantly, on helping people.
 Two years ago, Matt quit all social media platforms—from Facebook to Instagram to Twitter,—he saw the toxicity it brought despite it helping his business thrive at the beginning. There are so many other ways one can conduct business transactions.  He won’t ever forget his grandmother’s reaction whenever he shows her his new gadgets. She despises them, as she sees them as a danger to any person and their relationships. Matt adds that he enjoys learning from other generations since he gains some of their wisdom. He advises that you do too.
  
 Matt Thompson’s advice to improve your creativity:  Be consistent. You improve and you become productive when you show up every time.
 Work in small chunks, then incrementally increase them through time.
 Sometimes, creativity needs tough love. Don’t get thrown off by the pressure of deadlines or not being the best. There will be something good that will come out of it, always.
  
  BEST MOMENTS
  “I try to understand other people to help me understand myself.”
 “We are expressing ourselves less and less. We’re much more passive now. And we’re consuming more than what we create.”
 “The life that I have lived and currently live is beyond my expectations.” 
 “God says, ‘Use the choice between life and death. And I urge you to choose life.’”
 “To be present with your pain and to run into it.”
 “Creativity needs tough love.”

For Matt, his faith is very important to him. He’s a Christian, and there’s no shame in saying that. It gives him the power to overcome the fears &amp; doubts and to push forward in life. Find something, or someone, that will drive you to better yourself.</li> <li>Matt will always be thankful to have found a partner he’s comfortable with and complements him. His wife Jaci has opened his eyes to a wider perspective on maintaining healthy relationships, on creating more worthwhile connections, and perhaps most significantly, on helping people.</li> <li>Two years ago, Matt quit all social media platforms—from Facebook to Instagram to Twitter,—he saw the toxicity it brought despite it helping his business thrive at the beginning. There are so many other ways one can conduct business transactions. <ul> <li>He won’t ever forget his grandmother’s reaction whenever he shows her his new gadgets. She despises them, as she sees them as a danger to any person and their relationships. Matt adds that he enjoys learning from other generations since he gains some of their wisdom. He advises that you do too.</li> </ul> </li> <li>Matt Thompson’s advice to improve your creativity: <ul> <li>Be consistent. You improve and you become productive when you show up every time.</li> <li>Work in small chunks, then incrementally increase them through time.</li> <li>Sometimes, creativity needs tough love. Don’t get thrown off by the pressure of deadlines or not being the best. There will be something good that will come out of it, always.</li> </ul> </li> </ul> <p><strong>BEST MOMENTS</strong></p> <ul> <li><em>“I try to understand other people to help me understand myself.”</em></li> <li><em>“We are expressing ourselves less and less. We’re much more passive now. And we’re consuming more than what we create.”</em></li> <li><em>“The life that I have lived and currently live is beyond my expectations.” </em></li> <li><em>“God says, ‘Use the choice between life and death. And I urge you to choose life.’”</em></li> <li><em>“To be present with your pain and to run into it.”</em></li> <li><em>“Creativity needs tough love.”</em></li> </ul> <p><strong>VALUABLE RESOURCES</strong></p> <ul> <li>

      <title>E31: Adrian Vazquez</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/adrian-vazquez</link>
      <description>Sometimes, it just takes another with exceptional talent to make your message more impactful.
 Adrian Vazquez, our guest for this episode of Fire In The Belly Podcast, shares how he was able to build his career and how he was able to work with top names in different industries. He also gives useful advice on finding your niche and creating content. Adrian hasn’t always had solid plan for his future, but he has always been a risk-taker and an optimist; he has never let great opportunities slip through his hands. You can learn more on how you can propel forward in your career when you listen in today.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  There’s nothing wrong with having no concrete plans YET. Don’t panic. At your own pace, you’ll figure out where you should go and how to swim through life’s challenges. After being ‘skilled’ with whatever life throws at you, everything will be clear from then on. It becomes easier to plan.
 Adrian himself didn’t know he’d enjoy being behind a camera so much. He can still remember the time when his life changed. It was the time he worked with Gary Vaynerchuk, mostly helping in repurposing his content. He realised his talent could be something powerful as well as helpful to others.
 That was just the start. Adrian knew he could create more content for more people. His clients trusted him fully, so he was free to incorporate his creative style and voice. It was fulfilling to know that he could make money using what he enjoyed doing and what he was ‘good at’.
 Some pieces of advice from Adrian when creating content:  Find your niche first. It’s better to excel at one thing than try to be an expert at everything. Most likely, if there’s no full focus at a certain endeavour, results will be subpar.
 
Story is the most important thing about creating a content. If you can’t tell a compelling story, regardless in what medium, then you won’t have enough reach.
 When inspiration doesn’t find you, it might be best to take a step back from work for a while to get a fresher and clearer mind.
  
  BEST MOMENTS
  “I was determined to make something.”
 “You can have anything you want in your life if you’re willing to put in the work.”
 “Every time Ryan connects me with new people, I make sure to maintain the relationship and give a good first impression by giving value immediately.”
 “If you have one skill you’re really good at, triple down on it and use it as your Trojan Horse.”

      <title>E30: Network Marketing With Brian Chittick</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/030-fitb</link>
      <description>“You get paid with what your worth, so it’s best if you work your way up.”
 This is according to Introbiz’s Male Entrepreneur of the Year 2019 and serial entrepreneur Brian Chittick. Today in the Fire In the Belly Podcast, Pete and Brian discusses more about network marketing. Network marketing helped Brian build and grow businesses.
 Brian was always eager to grow his businesses, so he maintains healthy relationships with people in his network. Brian also shares that his fellow entrepreneurs and colleagues in his network were able to better their lives too.
 Brian also discusses his career growth, the time he met Richard Branson, resetting his life at 54, the 3 things entrepreneurs must be wary about, personal stories, and much more, so make sure to listen in today!
 KEY TAKEAWAYS                 
  Brian Chittick was always a hard worker. Money wasn’t his primary motivator. In fact, he remembers the time where he worked as a bartender when he was young and earning very litte. He never complained, he believed it was an excellent start for him, and that he would soon be venturing towards more opportunities. And he did, he continued switching to better jobs and progressing further. Then, he started his own business.
 There were so many ups and downs during his entrepreneurship journey. A difficult situation even made him push the reset button—he had to start all over again. Luckily, growth was quick for Brian.
 Network marketing is a business strategy that relies on one-to-one sales by independent representatives. The more people who are in your network, the more money you can earn. Over 200 million a day in commission can be secured through network marketing, that’s why most businesses value it immensely.  Brian still has his enormous network (made up of friends, business stockholders &amp; colleagues) who he’s still in contact with, even after 20 years. Brian attributes trust as one of the top reasons he has maintained such a valuable network.
  
 There is no such thing as coincidence. Everything happens for a reason. You must be intentional in your business if you want to get the results you want. Don’t be afraid to fail. It’s better to risk, just remember to evaluate your resources, your manpower, and your own capabilities.
 When asked what mistakes you should avoid as an entrepreneur, Brian advises that everyone should learn balance. Don’t be too trusting with people; don’t be too cavalier with money. Further advice is to prepare a fall back. Some newer entrepreneurs might enjoy splurging too much. There can be unforeseen events (e.g. coronavirus pandemic) that can cause market crashes. Be ready.
  BEST MOMENTS
  “Fire in the belly means always being driven to do something better.”
 “Having a side income is not a luxury, it’s a necessity.”
 “Greed is an awful thing in business, in any way. If you only look at what’s coming in and not also of what’s coming out, then you’ve got the wrong perspective.”
 “The world is such a small place, and there are many opportunities out there.”

 Brian was always eager to grow his businesses, so he maintains healthy relationships with people in his network. Brian also shares that his fellow entrepreneurs and colleagues in his network were able to better their lives too.
 Brian also discusses his career growth, the time he met Richard Branson, resetting his life at 54, the 3 things entrepreneurs must be wary about, personal stories, and much more, so make sure to listen in today!
 KEY TAKEAWAYS                 
  Brian Chittick was always a hard worker. Money wasn’t his primary motivator. In fact, he remembers the time where he worked as a bartender when he was young and earning very litte. He never complained, he believed it was an excellent start for him, and that he would soon be venturing towards more opportunities. And he did, he continued switching to better jobs and progressing further. Then, he started his own business.
 There were so many ups and downs during his entrepreneurship journey. A difficult situation even made him push the reset button—he had to start all over again. Luckily, growth was quick for Brian.
 Network marketing is a business strategy that relies on one-to-one sales by independent representatives. The more people who are in your network, the more money you can earn. Over 200 million a day in commission can be secured through network marketing, that’s why most businesses value it immensely.  Brian still has his enormous network (made up of friends, business stockholders &amp; colleagues) who he’s still in contact with, even after 20 years. Brian attributes trust as one of the top reasons he has maintained such a valuable network.
  
 There is no such thing as coincidence. Everything happens for a reason. You must be intentional in your business if you want to get the results you want. Don’t be afraid to fail. It’s better to risk, just remember to evaluate your resources, your manpower, and your own capabilities.
 When asked what mistakes you should avoid as an entrepreneur, Brian advises that everyone should learn balance. Don’t be too trusting with people; don’t be too cavalier with money. Further advice is to prepare a fall back. Some newer entrepreneurs might enjoy splurging too much. There can be unforeseen events (e.g. coronavirus pandemic) that can cause market crashes. Be ready.
  BEST MOMENTS
  “Fire in the belly means always being driven to do something better.”
 “Having a side income is not a luxury, it’s a necessity.”
 “Greed is an awful thing in business, in any way. If you only look at what’s coming in and not also of what’s coming out, then you’ve got the wrong perspective.”
 “The world is such a small place, and there are many opportunities out there.”

      <title>E29: Deep Health Coaching With Jennifer Byrne</title>

      <description>Fire In The Belly Podcast #029: Deep Health Coaching With Jennifer Byrne
 DESCRIPTION
 Nourish to flourish!
 That’s Jennifer Byrne’s, our guest for today, advice to everyone listening in. 
 It’s easy to be happy and be impactful to everyone around you when you’re self-aware—not only with the mind, body and soul, but also with your relationships and everything that surrounds you.
 Jennifer has always been passionate about helping others. Before she became the go-to Deep Health Coach, she endured a 12-year abusive relationship. This has brought her emotional turmoil. But she was able to get out of this because of mindfulness, accountability, and determination. She is ‘done’ with toxicity. Her mind is now always set to better her health, fitness and nutrition. Start listening to know about her 360-degree approach and more in this episode of the Fire In The Belly Podcast. 
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  
  Jennifer entered an abusive relationship when she was in her early 20s, endured it and finally broke free from it after 12 years. She has always felt that she has been a single parent; she was parenting alone, even with her partner around.
   It was difficult to cope and understand what was happening. She resorted to vices to anaesthetise the emotional pain. But she also remembers that during that time, it was going to the gym that would add (even a small bit) of happiness every day.
   Build yourself from inside out. Be your own cheerleader every single day. When Jennifer started her journey to healing, it wasn’t easy at first. She was transitioning from a destructive environment to finally owning her freedom, her independence. She started building her knowledge and adding more to her skill set. This and with the help of her loved ones, she was able to stabilise herself, her relationships, and her life.
   Nourish to flourish. Jennifer always works on herself. She has always ben mindful about her nutrition and physical health. This has helped her a lot, especially through awful times. That is why she set up her business—she wants everyone to realise that they can attain the healthiest and happiest versions of themselves. 
   Face the truth. Acknowledge what’s working, and what is not serving you. Don’t lie to yourself. Be responsible. It’s easy to live honestly. We stop making excuses for ourselves when we know our abilities as well as our limitations.
   
 BEST MOMENTS
  
  “Strive for progress, not perfection.”
   “And that has saved my sanity… being active and exercising.”
   “I’m still on a journey. I’m still healing myself.”
   “I have always been passionate for what I do. I know what I do works because I’m a living proof.”
   “I don’t like being called the victim of domestic violence. I’m not a victim; I’m not a survivor. I don’t like the words being attached to it… I was just being honest with myself.”

      <title>E28: Harness Your Personal Power - with Eamonn Walsh</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/eamonn-walsh</link>
      <description>Did you know that you can reverse engineer any unwanted conditioning of yours and then build that unstoppable mindset afterwards? Well, you can. 
 Today in the Fire In The Belly Podcast, Pete talks to Eamonn Walsh, a Sales Coach and the creator of The Power of the Individual, where he educates on how you can use your personal power to grow, lead, and succeed—whether it be in your career or your business. His clients are mostly individuals who have had problems with their businesses (particularly start-ups) but were able to save them, if not improve them further, with Eamonn’s immense help.
 Some topics discussed in this episode are; creating value, being responsible, accepting failures and finding your language. Start tuning in to learn more.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS                 
  
 Best of both worlds. No matter what it is, whether it be music or innovative business solutions, Eamonn makes sure he’s all in. He can create something useful out of nothing. Always curious, always tinkering on stuff. It was always his passion to create, since he enjoys seeing significant results and getting problems solved.

 
 Responsibility = empowerment. We’re responsible for what happens to us. We choose who to surround ourselves with, what next steps to take, and what paths to follow. If you always choose the best things, and also are ready for failures, then it’s easy to achieve your wanted results. That’s your personal power.

 
 Find your success language. It’s easy to attract success when you speak confidently and positively, just like any successful person. You will attract like-minded people.   
 This will also help you in a sales environment. There’s a language that you and the other party (i.e. customer) understands. You can easily convince people of what you’re selling, may it be an idea, a product, or a service. 

 
 There’s also the importance of non-verbal language. When the world feels good to you, it will resonate. 

  
 
 If what you’re doing doesn’t create value, then why are you still doing it? For Eamonn, it’s important that every time he creates and starts a new project, it helps other people. 

  BEST MOMENTS
  
 “Fire in the belly for me is true passion. It’s when you truly made a decision on something and nothing stands in your way.”

 
 “I enjoyed school because I had great and fantastic opportunities to do what I wanted to do, build/ create things, and turn one thing into something completely different.”

 
 “I am responsible for everything that’s in my world. And I am responsible for what remains in my world.”

 
 “Failure is often the right decision.”

 
 “CAN is the most obvious truth you will ever tell yourself, and CAN’T is the most obvious lie you will tell yourself.”

 
 “What the Power of the individual does is teach reverse engineering; take those bits of conditioning that you don’t like and replace it with something good.”

      <title>E27: What’s Holding You Back? With Bernie Allen</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/026-fitb</link>
      <description>“I don’t want to die with all this knowledge inside of me… That’d hurt me to know that I haven’t passed down my skills.”
 Bernie Allen, a speaker, coach and author, is our guest for today on the Fire In The Belly Podcast. In this episode she speaks about her personal and business life. She has overcome a lot of obstacles. Every individual she meets, she relates and sympathises with. Everything that happens, happens for a reason. She emphasises that it’s time to accept things as it is, be grateful and move forward.
 Everyone can learn from Bernie, as she is relentless, determined, and very passionate. She has given hands-on help, which has improved their lives and then succeeded. Start learning from her and know if you’re doing everything right in your journey in life. Tune in.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS                 
  Observe and learn. Most of us will run as fast as we can once we hear multilevel marketing aka MLM. But what Bernie did was astounding. She didn’t pass any judgement, kept her mouth shut, and just asked questions where she saw a chance. She was eager to learn—to avoid others mistakes, and to copy what made them earn big.
 No limits, no exceptions. It doesn’t matter who you are or what your background is, as long as you’re determined. Put in the effort every single time, no matter how tiny or big the task is. Bernie herself does not have those glittery honorifics or a bunch of certificates. She knows she has to work hard to get to the top. She’s relentless and determined.
 What made Bernie write her book? Bernie used to do inspirational talks for various people, where she got an overwhelming response. It turns out she isn’t that unique. When she speaks about her difficulties and challenges, many relate to her. She realised she can do more for more people. So, she wrote a very informative book about life and business.
 Your goal is her goal. As a mentor, she ensures she doesn’t impose any meaning of success onto her clients. If the individual just wants to have a happy heart and live simply, and none of the increasing wealth shenanigans, then Bernie won’t question them. They’ll still get the hands-on help.
  BEST MOMENTS
  “If you keep doing what you’re doing, you’re going to keep getting what you’re getting.”
 “The person who raises their voice first has lost the argument.” 
 “There is nothing that you can say to me I haven’t gone through.”
 “What you don’t know is not gonna do you any harm.”

        <![CDATA[<p><em>“I don’t want to die with all this knowledge inside of me… That’d hurt me to know that I haven’t passed down my skills.”</em></p> <p>Bernie Allen, a speaker, coach and author, is our guest for today on the Fire In The Belly Podcast. In this episode she speaks about her personal and business life. She has overcome a lot of obstacles. Every individual she meets, she relates and sympathises with. Everything that happens, happens for a reason. She emphasises that it’s time to accept things as it is, be grateful and move forward.</p> <p>Everyone can learn from Bernie, as she is relentless, determined, and very passionate. She has given hands-on help, which has improved their lives and then succeeded. Start learning from her and know if you’re doing everything right in your journey in life. Tune in.</p> <p><strong>KEY TAKEAWAYS                 </strong></p> <ul> <li>Observe and learn. Most of us will run as fast as we can once we hear multilevel marketing aka MLM. But what Bernie did was astounding. She didn’t pass any judgement, kept her mouth shut, and just asked questions where she saw a chance. She was eager to learn—to avoid others mistakes, and to <em>copy</em> what made them earn big.</li> <li>No limits, no exceptions. It doesn’t matter who you are or what your background is, as long as you’re determined. Put in the effort every single time, no matter how tiny or big the task is. Bernie herself does not have those glittery honorifics or a bunch of certificates. She knows she has to work hard to get to the top. She’s relentless and determined.</li> <li>What made Bernie write her book? Bernie used to do inspirational talks for various people, where she got an overwhelming response. It turns out she isn’t that unique. When she speaks about her difficulties and challenges, many relate to her. She realised she can do more for more people. So, she wrote a very informative book about life and business.</li> <li>Your goal is her goal. As a mentor, she ensures she doesn’t impose any meaning of success onto her clients. If the individual just wants to have a happy heart and live simply, and none of the increasing wealth shenanigans, then Bernie won’t question them. They’ll still get the hands-on help.</li> </ul> <p><strong>BEST MOMENTS</strong></p> <ul> <li><em>“If you keep doing what you’re doing, you’re going to keep getting what you’re getting.”</em></li> <li><em>“The person who raises their voice first has lost the argument.” </em></li> <li><em>“There is nothing that you can say to me I haven’t gone through.”</em></li> <li><em>“What you don’t know is not gonna do you any harm.”</em></li> </ul> <p><strong>VALUABLE RESOURCES</strong></p> <ul> <li>

      <title>E26: Achieving Peak Performance With Adam Strong</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/026-fitb-1</link>
      <description>In this episode of the Fire In The Belly Podcast, Pete sits with Adam Strong, an Elite Athlete turned Business Coach, to talk about how you can achieve peak performance and increase productivity levels so you can reach your goals in no time. Adam believes that the focus, discipline, and teamwork that he has learned in his vigorous training for being an athlete were significant factors on how he got where he is now. Aside from growing his business and wealth, he has also grown his reach—he is helping more solopreneurs and companies than ever.
 Some other topics that were discussed today too were: the effect of sports in mental health, business coaching, leading teams, strategic business plans, helping other people, and many more. Time to listen in.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS                 
  
The Art of Running. When Adam was a kid, he got bullied a lot because of his alopecia. This affected his self-worth and confidence. So, he did something else to get his mind off things—he started running.
 Adam never gave being a top athlete a thought. He just kept practising and practising. At first, it was difficult because asthma attacks were prominent, but he continued training every single day. In return, this improved his health, increased his confidence, and he then became an elite athlete.
 
From flipping burgers to growing his own business. His first job was as a part-time in McDonald’s. Most would abhor it, but Adam was plain happy that he was learning about responsibility, leadership, and finances. It was easy for him to climb the ladder and it came to a point where he also led teams.
 At 25, he became a Personal Trainer in a cruise ship, a dream job of his. He had such a wonderful learning experience. He explored while helping other people. But he had to go back to the UK and look for other opportunities. This time, he wanted to run his own business and team.
 When he first started conducting personal training, there was an overwhelming response. But he knew he could grow his reach more. So, he met with a business coach who helped him gain clarity about his life and business goals. During this interaction, he learned that he not only had immense knowledge of sports, but he was also a skilled public speaker.
 
A business strategist rather than a business coach. Adam can easily empower people to be great in their endeavours because of his expertise in sports and business. He advises to take things step by step and always continue moving, aiming to achieve peak performance every time.
  BEST MOMENTS
  “I never compare myself to anyone else. We all have different backgrounds. We all have different goals.”
 “I started getting better through training and repetition. Repetition is the best form of practice.”
 “It wasn’t happening for me… Enough is enough. I’m done with struggling. I’m done with not being able to provide for my kids.”
 “I genuinely want to help people.”
 “Coaching is as important to me as breathing.”

      <title>E25: Healing From A Traumatic Experience With Lisa Burke</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/025-fitb</link>
      <description>Giving birth is a big turning point for any woman and family. People talk about how beautiful it is and we treat it as a blessing. But how come we never talk about the effect on a mother’s life afterwards?
 In this episode of the Fire In the Belly Podcast, Pete sits down with Lisa Burke, an author and yoga teacher, to talk about her traumatic birth experience and how yoga and meditation helped her get through it. Listen in to learn how Lisa managed this and how she found her inner peace and balance.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS                 
  There was addiction in Lisa's family which brought many challenges particularly in relation to her self-identity and self-value.  Ultimately the quest was to find a place of balance not just within herself but with her family. This is never easy, but acknowledging the truth allowed for a place to begin the healing.  Practising yoga and being around her family helped her improve her health and wellbeing.
  
 Though yoga was her #1 solace, it wasn’t possible to do it after her traumatic birth experience. Lisa suffered from postpartum PTSD and had to see a therapist.
 Her physical (plus psychological &amp; mental) wounds healed, but life became very different. She needed to provide for her child financially, developmentally and emotionally. So, due to financial reasons, Lisa had to put a halt to teaching Kundalini yoga, and apply for a typical 9-5 job. But what isn’t for you, isn’t for you. It was sucked the life out of her.
 It needs to feel right. When Lisa was working a job she didn’t like, she was dreadful and in pain, even outside the office. According to Lisa, it’s easier to be successful when you’re happy with what you’re doing. So, she left the job, wrote her book, and started teaching again. Listen and connect to what your heart is telling you. Always ask: Does it feel right?
 Speak your truth. When we share our traumatic experience, we help ourselves and other people. We connect. We hear other insights and take in whatever that could help us.
  BEST MOMENTS
  “We all meet that part of ourselves when we want to connect to something deeper, to understand who we are, or to understand why we are here for.” 
 “When you do something that your heart isn’t calling for, a part of you dies.” 
 “If we are able to stop, to turn inwards, to slow down, to calm, to just come at the head and drop down into the heart… that’s where our calling comes from.”
 “We are required to open up this soft belly, this part of ourselves that has the power to move forward—the power to take steps.”

      <itunes:summary>Giving birth is a big turning point for any woman and family. People talk about how beautiful it is and we treat it as a blessing. But how come we never talk about the effect on a mother’s life afterwards?
 In this episode of the Fire In the Belly Podcast, Pete sits down with Lisa Burke, an author and yoga teacher, to talk about her traumatic birth experience and how yoga and meditation helped her get through it. Listen in to learn how Lisa managed this and how she found her inner peace and balance.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS                 
  There was addiction in Lisa's family which brought many challenges particularly in relation to her self-identity and self-value.  Ultimately the quest was to find a place of balance not just within herself but with her family. This is never easy, but acknowledging the truth allowed for a place to begin the healing.  Practising yoga and being around her family helped her improve her health and wellbeing.
  
 Though yoga was her #1 solace, it wasn’t possible to do it after her traumatic birth experience. Lisa suffered from postpartum PTSD and had to see a therapist.
 Her physical (plus psychological &amp; mental) wounds healed, but life became very different. She needed to provide for her child financially, developmentally and emotionally. So, due to financial reasons, Lisa had to put a halt to teaching Kundalini yoga, and apply for a typical 9-5 job. But what isn’t for you, isn’t for you. It was sucked the life out of her.
 It needs to feel right. When Lisa was working a job she didn’t like, she was dreadful and in pain, even outside the office. According to Lisa, it’s easier to be successful when you’re happy with what you’re doing. So, she left the job, wrote her book, and started teaching again. Listen and connect to what your heart is telling you. Always ask: Does it feel right?
 Speak your truth. When we share our traumatic experience, we help ourselves and other people. We connect. We hear other insights and take in whatever that could help us.
  BEST MOMENTS
  “We all meet that part of ourselves when we want to connect to something deeper, to understand who we are, or to understand why we are here for.” 
 “When you do something that your heart isn’t calling for, a part of you dies.” 
 “If we are able to stop, to turn inwards, to slow down, to calm, to just come at the head and drop down into the heart… that’s where our calling comes from.”
 “We are required to open up this soft belly, this part of ourselves that has the power to move forward—the power to take steps.”

      <title>E24: Positive Mindset – With Nicola Connolly Byrne</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/024-fitb</link>
      <description>Let your guts talk. When Nicola Connolly Byrne, our guest for today, started helping other people to attain their goals, she didn’t have a blueprint to follow. She was just simply guided by her passion to serve other people.
 In this episode, Pete talks to Nicola on how to be the best version of yourself. Nicola dives deep into how loving yourself and having a positive mindset can instantly help you do that.
 One thing that can help you know yourself is to also get to know more of your close ties (i.e. family). The people around you generally weigh in big on your decisions, so listen to them. But also remember the importance of balance. We must ensure individual growth as well as maintain relationships.
 Learn more when you tune in today on the Fire in the Belly Podcast.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS                 
  We learn so much from our family. Here are things that Nicola learned throughout the years.  
Keep them close. Your family greatly influenced the principles, beliefs, and values you have right now. Having them around, keeping in touch with them, will strengthen your self and social identity. And to add, Nicola also examined in significant detail her family tree to know more about herself.
 Keep your boundaries. Nicola has had a tight relationship with her brother since childhood, it grew even more when their mum died. Nicola has always been caring and protective of him. But then she realised how unhealthy this is for him, and for them. Though surrounding yourself with your loved ones is great, we should note that there should be respect for one’s individual growth and exploration too.
  
 Break the mould. Nicola prides herself as a fighter. She’s quite relentless in growing her career and her business. Sometimes, sacrifices need to be done too in order to get your wanted results. Don’t be afraid to try new things, to get out of your comfort zone, and to fail.
 Nicola’s adventure in life is mostly driven by others’ needs, not her own needs. There is no absolute and definite path that she traverses. Whatever people need from here, she goes the extra mile to provide them.
 Things that kids should learn during their formative years:  Speak respectfully.
 Participate only in constructive conversations.
 Listen to people.
 Don’t exclude anyone.
 Support other people.
 Trust your gut intuition.
  
  BEST MOMENTS
  “If you’re not challenged, you haven’t grown.”
 “I wanted to be doing something that is important. Just to clarify, it doesn’t make other people less important than you—it just means you’re expressing yourself in different ways.”
 “It’s much easier to be yourself, than to be someone else.”
 “For Irish people, it’s frowned upon when you say you love yourself. But if I don’t love myself properly, how can I love others properly?”
 “Fire in the belly is following your passion. Fire in the belly is doing the unpopular thing even when you know it is right for you. Fire in the belly is doing things out of the ordinary.”

      <title>E23: Don’t Put Too Much Pressure On The Kids With Vivian McKinnon</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/don-t-put-too-much-pressure-on-the-kids-with-vivia</link>
      <description>Kids can be unruly and get on any parent’s nerves sometimes. But that doesn’t mean we can lash out at them anytime. Your screaming won’t cut it if you want them to really learn so they won’t do it again in the future. In this episode of the Fire In The Belly Podcast, Pete talks to Vivian McKinnon, a Floatation &amp; Trauma Specialist, a public speaker, and a coach, about how she helps her clients by sharing her personal stories (including recovery from traumas). No one should be ever told that they are less than enough. Kids deserve to be given hope and should not be pressured. Let them discover themselves and dream. Tune in to know more about mental health and more today.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS              
  Vivian grew up in a not so perfect family. Though very supportive of her activities when she was a child, her parents fought a lot. She never felt she was greatly loved. In fact, she felt rejected throughout her childhood; always trying to do whatever she could to be accepted. This affected her mental health, which manifested physically too.
 Despite her past strained relationships—not just with her family, but also with her previous partners)—Vivian was still able to live the life she wanted to live. She strived harder to attain some stability, financially and mentally.
 As a Wellness Consultant, she and her team have equipped themselves with enough knowledge, resources, strategies, models and tools to help her clients. Vivian also believes her own personal story and her killset can make people embrace themselves truly and be strong during tough times.
 No person is broken. Most of the people who think this way have no one around them who support them, boost their moral, or make things clear for them. It’s important that we are reassured during our formative years that we deserve great (and much greater) things. Don’t put too much pressure on the kids. Also, give them hope.
  BEST MOMENTS
  “You look back and there’s always somebody in your life that you know was never meant to be there, but is.”
 “Go for the things you want and act like you already have them.”
 “Vulnerability is a place where you can grow and develop more.”
 “I love myself. I accept myself for who I am. I make pretty good decisions. I am a pretty decent mum.”
 “I am who I am because of the experience that I have.”

      <title>E22: The journey of Evelyn McAleer and being Effortless and Living a Life You Want</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/022-fitb</link>
      <description>This is what you are; this is who you really are.
 Have you found what your purpose in life is already?
 Our guest for today is Evelyn McAleer, a life coach who can help you find your purpose and your path. Learn how you can honour your authentic self and fulfil your intentions. Evelyn also discusses the importance of gratitude, selflessness, and balance.
 Evelyn shares how it wasn’t easy for her to find her own path. That is why she wants to help others move effortlessly towards theirs. Tune in now to the latest episode of the Fire In The Belly Podcast to know more.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS                 
  Evelyn is a spiritual life coach. Evelyn wants you to understand how and where one’s spirit or energy comes from. All the answers you need are already with you. You just need to listen to what your subconscious is telling you. When you truly are one with your mind and soul, everything will fall into place.
 Ask when you need help. Stop neglecting what’s lacking and not working. Sometimes, it’s just external push from someone/something else that we need so to put in the effort to better ourselves. Get energised from your relationships. They might give that reinforcing stimulus you need.
 We can prevent any negative thinking when we know how great we are and what magnificent things we can do. Don’t let any rotten apples interfere with personal development and career success.
 Start your day right. Appreciation and gratefulness give off an optimistic vibe which can help you move forward throughout the day. Your disposition too affects everyone you interact with. So, if in business, in order for your team to be productive and perform their best, you must be their role model.
 What’s your purpose? Will that purpose benefit others too? Always be intentional. But when what you do is self-serving and has no regard for other people, it’s difficult to be content and see the value in what you’re reaching towards. According to Evelyn, there’s a more impactful change to your life when you become selfless.
  BEST MOMENTS
  “That's the beauty with having children... as much as we as parents believe that we will show teach them, they are the best teachers we'll ever have in this life.”
 “When you let go of things that your energy is not in, that’s when it frees up space to let in what is coming to you.”
 “Some people don’t realise their greatness. That’s what I hope to bring to people so they can create and have the life they want.”
 “We have to honour our emotions. When we have a passing of a loved one, and the relationship breaks up, you go through mixed emotions. You don’t block them off.”
 “I believe everyone is here on their own journey. Some people will live their purpose and some won’t. There has to be a balance of everything.”

  ABOUT THE GUEST
 Evelyn lives in the beautiful countryside of County Tyrone in Ireland. A mother of three Evelyn believes that children can be our greatest teachers and from her example of living a life she loves her own children will learn from her and carry it through to their own lives and the next generation.
 She is blessed with a life she has manifested for herself and through this learning she will help you bring that about in your own life.
 She began her life of purpose through dance; a journey that ignited a flame within her she never knew existed.
 “I don’t believe we need to compete, there is abundance for everyone. Always do your best and be happy in that knowing.”

        <![CDATA[<p><em>This is what you are; this is who you really are.</em></p> <p>Have you found what your purpose in life is already?</p> <p>Our guest for today is Evelyn McAleer, a life coach who can help you find your purpose and your path. Learn how you can honour your authentic self and fulfil your intentions. Evelyn also discusses the importance of gratitude, selflessness, and balance.</p> <p>Evelyn shares how it wasn’t easy for her to find her own path. That is why she wants to help others move effortlessly towards theirs. Tune in now to the latest episode of the Fire In The Belly Podcast to know more.</p> <p><strong>KEY TAKEAWAYS                 </strong></p> <ul> <li>Evelyn is a spiritual life coach. Evelyn wants you to understand how and where one’s <em>spirit</em> or energy comes from. All the answers you need are already with you. You just need to listen to what your subconscious is telling you. When you truly are one with your mind and soul, everything will fall into place.</li> <li>Ask when you need help. Stop neglecting what’s lacking and not working. Sometimes, it’s just external push from someone/something else that we need so to put in the effort to better ourselves. Get energised from your relationships. They might give that reinforcing stimulus you need.</li> <li>We can prevent any negative thinking when we know how great we are and what magnificent things we can do. Don’t let any rotten apples interfere with personal development and career success.</li> <li>Start your day right. Appreciation and gratefulness give off an optimistic vibe which can help you move forward throughout the day. Your disposition too affects everyone you interact with. So, if in business, in order for your team to be productive and perform their best, you must be their role model.</li> <li>What’s your purpose? Will that purpose benefit others too? Always be intentional. But when what you do is self-serving and has no regard for other people, it’s difficult to be content and see the value in what you’re reaching towards. According to Evelyn, there’s a more impactful change to your life when you become selfless.</li> </ul> <p><strong>BEST MOMENTS</strong></p> <ul> <li><em>“That's the beauty with having children... as much as we as parents believe that we will show teach them, they are the best teachers we'll ever have in this life.”</em></li> <li><em>“When you let go of things that your energy is not in, that’s when it frees up space to let in what is coming to you.”</em></li> <li><em>“Some people don’t realise their greatness. That’s what I hope to bring to people so they can create and have the life they want.”</em></li> <li><em>“We have to honour our emotions. When we have a passing of a loved one, and the relationship breaks up, you go through mixed emotions. You don’t block them off.”</em></li> <li><em>“I believe everyone is here on their own journey. Some people will live their purpose and some won’t. There has to be a balance of everything.”</em></li> </ul> <p><strong>VALUABLE RESOURCES</strong></p> <ul> <li>

      <title>E21: Phil Graham!</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/phil-graham</link>
      <description>“The fitness industry is big right now; it’s thriving.”
 It’s true. People are more self and health-conscious than ever before.
 In this episode of the Fire In The Belly Podcast, Pete sits with Phil Graham, Personal Coach and Bestselling author, to talk everything about personal fitness. Entrepreneurs in the said niche, will learn a lot from Phil as he shares how he built and grew his own personal fitness business. His own 10 Commandments can help you grow your wealth, impact, and freedom, just like they helped his clients.
 Phil also goes back to the beginning and shares his battle with Diabetes. He wants to enlighten many people about maintaining a healthy mind, body, and soul, that is why he became a fitness entrepreneur. Tune in to find out more.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  Phil was diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes when he was 16. And to make it worse, he was advised it was serious and life-threatening. This prompted him to change his lifestyle, plan a healthier diet, and exercise more. He was eager to improve his life expectancy so he can enjoy more of everything.
 Phil was inspired to help other people suffering from diabetes and other chronic illnesses too. So he studied about biochemistry and nutrition, trained for bodybuilding, and wrote informational books. In the end, he was able to build his credibility and become the go-to fitness trainer.
 Personal fitness business is no different from the usual businesses. Phil advises to always reinvent your ways and to solve any issues early on. From his observations, some fitness entrepreneurs get comfortable when they see that they’re achieving results. Always aim to do more so you can help more people.
 It all starts within yourself. We can never master the art of living, but we can savour every bit life offers by living with our own standards in mind and knowing about our own limitations.
 How do you convince your team to bring as much value into your business?  Be very clear on your mission and visions.
 Show those ‘on-stage’ and backstage.
 Get results.
  
 Phil emphasises the importance of personal development too. It’s essential to look back and evaluate what happened in the past as there may be lessons to be learnt. Be grateful for your successes as well as your failures.
  BEST MOMENTS
  “Fire in the belly for me means waking up in the morning super excited to face the challenges for the day… It’s not all about the wins but the chaos that comes with it and being able to leverage the best way you can.”
 “Nutrition, exercise, mindset, medication and lifestyle…Those were the areas in my life that I locked into.”
 “Having a rough idea is a better way to look at it, and thinking more acutely like in months, in quarters, or in weeks, then build it up to that.”
 “I want to be a better human being and love myself more and more each day.”
 “The biggest and important thing for me is how can I serve humanity, how can I love myself, how can I be on a real mission to help and contribute as much as I can.”

      <description>James Perry is an Accounting Exam Coach, an author and a speaker. He helps clients achieve exceptional results in their exams so they can pursue the career they want.
 In this episode of the Fire In The Belly Podcast, James discusses more on his method of exam coaching and the growth of his business. James has always been passionate about helping other people. He attributes his supportive parents as the building blocks for his success today. Learn how you can reach your goals when you listen in.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  When asked what ‘fire in the belly’ means for James, he said it’s about ‘helping other people’. He also mentioned the top 3 things that keep him going: mother, travel, and the want of knowledge. His mum was a great model for him and is his forever #1 supporter.  James will do anything to make his mum proud.
 James also remembers how his values were shaped during his childhood. It was his father who pushed him to study more, do more. James sees him as an intelligent and a passionate man. His dad supports everything he does to move forward in life.
 James knows how difficult it is to survive in this world. So as an exam coach, he wants to help people gain all the skills you need to pass any qualifications/exams needed. James believes that even the most hopeless can leave the exam hall with an ear to ear smile.
 Some of James tips when taking your Accounting exams:  Have a study plan.
 Practice time management.
 Use common sense.
 Don’t get emotional, wound up, or stressed.
  
 For James, it’s important to increase the ‘consciousness of life’. Spend time with yourself. Spend time with other people. Every time you fall off the wagon, just remember that it’s part of life. Everything happens for a reason, and there are always available resources around you that you can use.
  BEST MOMENTS
  Pete: “You know what your vocation is now?” James: “Helping people. I love helping people and get nothing but satisfaction from it.”
 “I like the numbers and I like structure.”
 “My ego is never massive because I’ve never been a bragger. I’ve always been very humble.”
 “Find someone you can talk and relate to.”
 “…Through me, getting back the logic back in there and the process in place, she passed.”

      <title>E19: Kenny Falconer Interview</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/kenny-falconer-interview</link>
      <description>Kenny Falconer is a life coach who helps his clients improve their EQ, or a.k.a. emotional quotient/intelligence, to achieve more.
 In this episode of the Fire In The Belly Podcast, Kenny talks us through his successful career change from being in construction to business coaching.
 Kenny has tried many different jobs in the construction. Though he enjoyed the industry, he decided that he wanted to help more people by becoming a true-life beacon. He studied, became an NLP Coach &amp; Practitioner, and a Time Line Therapy Practitioner. He has had many clients who have achieved exactly the results they were looking for. Tune in to find out more.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  Construction was always in his blood. Kenny’s father owned a construction yard, where he would spend most of his holidays when he was a kid. He had experienced working as a joiner, a foreman, and a manager. It was in construction that he honed his skill set.
 Teamwork, responsibility, and trust are just some values he learned while working there. He remembers the time he was working as a Director; working with people came naturally to him because he leads with compassion. He advises for leaders to always be understanding.
 Like many entrepreneurial minds, he also explored property investment. Ken bought over ten houses. Everything went well, until the recession hit. He had to file for bankruptcy and had to sell some properties. This greatly affected Kenny personally.
 Kenny also advises to create boundaries. Don’t treat your clients (e.g. tenants) like your blood relatives. Learn to draw the fine line. If it’s business, be strict in following your own rules. As this will become a problem in the future, especially in your finances.
 Spend time with your family. Kenny is used to working long hours. So, he missed many family dinners, kids’ birthdays, etc. He’d make it up by buying them gifts. But he learned that this was not what they wanted. It’s just time, quality time, you need to give as a father.
 As a coach, he wants to help people get the clarity they need so they can traverse life smoothly and achieve optimum results. Sometimes, people just need some outside perspective on their situation. Ask for help. Be open-minded and learn new things from others.
  BEST MOMENTS
  “I love my work. There is never a day that I wake up and think, why do I have to go to work.”
 “Acknowledge responsibility. Be responsible about the quality of work that you’re going to give.”
 “Keep your emotions and love with your family, friends, and the circle of people around you. But when it comes to business, keep it separate.”
 “There’s a lot of people out there who do the same thing. If you’re happy enough in that hamster wheel, stay there. But I will suspect that you’re not. Come out the hamster wheel of life, take a rest, and do something you’ve never done before.”

      <title>E18: Trish McGirr Interview</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/trish-mcgirr-interview</link>
      <description>For Trish McGirr, a Business Consultant, Coach and Mentor, it’s her personal stories that she treats as her capital. It’s the key reason people go to her and then ask: How can we get our 6-figure dream?
 In this episode of the Fire In The Belly Podcast, Pete talks to Trish about how sharing the gameplay of your life can influence other people. There’s nothing more valuable than helping someone improve to be a better person and better entrepreneur. Share what works and what doesn’t.
 In addition, Trish also shares the ups and downs of her personal life—from her childhood dreams to her personal relationships to the pursuit of her own happiness. From the very start, Trish was already a high achiever. Listen in to learn more about her.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  Trish was born in Northern Ireland. She spent the whole of her primary school education in Liverpool but needed to go back home to continue her education. She always felt like a stranger growing up. Even her mum and dad were having a hard time giving her what she needed, since they were also dealing with their own problems.
 She studied nursing in her hometown. Her mum dealing with depression and her dad with addiction were enormous factors in deciding what she pursued. She still can remember the exact date she started practising—it was on the 22nd of November 1982. For almost 30 years, Trish was a health nurse, specialising in addictions.
 Starting a new lesson, or a new phase in her life, isn’t new for Trish. She always gets by and adapts quickly. But when it comes to maths, especially when taught traditionally, she struggles. Trish has a learning disability called dyscalculia. There are many ways to cope with the condition and in doing these she hasn’t let it stop her achieving the things she wants.
 Trish also talks about how addiction gets overlooked by most of its victims. They don’t know they are already suffering from it unless they reach a low point and/or get diagnosed. Take note that someone can be addicted to anything—whether it be alcohol, success, cheating, or something else.
 No matter how awful things go, if you trust in and are open enough to what the world has to offer, you’ll be okay. Trish had marriage issues including financial problems. But she got through this with the love and support of those closest to her.
 Trish has now been thriving as a business consultant for almost 20 years. She’s been the go-to, and the most trusted consultant from sharing her own success blueprints. She offers varied and different programmes so she can cater to more people. Anyone can be better in business and reach the six-figure numbers.
  BEST MOMENTS
  “We need more energy and more positivity, especially in what’s happening in the world. Let’s re-inspire people.”
 “I always felt like a stranger looking in. Often, my concepts and ideas didn’t really land with people around me. I was always a big-picture-person. I was always a dreamer.”
 “There are pivotal moments in your life. Sometimes, they are the worst possible day; sometimes, they are also the best possible day.”
 “To do the things I really wanted to do, to be the person who I want to be, that’s what made me better in business.”
 “We all have things that we need to do. Allow yourself some time. As long as you carry on… believe in yourself. Find a way.”

      <title>E17: Do Things For Other People - With Stephen Morrow</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/stephen-morrow-interview</link>
      <description>One good deed a day. That’s what Stephen Morrow wants you to do—to live your life. We cannot notice the beauty in the mundane stuff when we’re too hooked with our schedules, quotas, goals, etc. There’s a lot to see. 
 In this episode of the Fire in the Belly Podcast, we learn more about how to do things for other people. Know how appreciation and gratitude can go a long way when achieving your goals. Stephen also emphasises giving value to society first, listen in for stories on how Stephen has done this.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  
 Learning in a traditional educational system was a struggle since he has dyslexia. So, it was outside the classrooms he learned most. He has tried being a car mechanic, a stone carver among other things. Though he has tried so many different jobs, it is in financial services he’s most comfortable.

 
 After trying many jobs, he explored real estate investing. This is where he fully developed his financial and managing skills. And when the recession happened, he had to make tough decisions regarding his properties. He made a plan. He sold them first, then bought them back as soon as the market went stable.

 
 How does Stephen build an unstoppable mindset? He says to be happy every single day. When you realise what you have on your hands, and what you can do for other people, that’s a start already.

 
 For Stephen, ‘fire in the belly’ means living your life. Be confident and believe in yourself. When you listen to what other people say, it may become stressful. You won’t impress everyone. Start doing things at your own pace and your standards. Just know that when you put value out there, there’s at least one person you will influence.

 
 It is when you’re at you’re lowest; you get humbled, and become the authentic ‘you’. He has never felt more appreciative of others and their contribution to his life and society during hard times. Stephen wants to remind you that everything happens for a reason, and your social circle (family, friends, etc.) will always be there to help. 

  BEST MOMENTS
  
 “I love meeting new people; I love helping people and seeing the good in everybody.”

 
 “If you trust yourself and do what’s right from you, I think that is where it comes from… People make decisions from a legal point of view.”

 
 “People have to reinvent themselves. People can get stuck in a job for the rest of their life and never take a chance on anything.”

 
 “10,000 a month may be enough for one person, for a year or a lifetime. Or it may be not enough for you. But you need to think what’s right for you.”

 
 “I don’t need anyone to see what I do as long as I know what I do.”

 For Stephen, ‘fire in the belly’ means living your life. Be confident and believe in yourself. When you listen to what other people say, it may become stressful. You won’t impress everyone. Start doing things at your own pace and your standards. Just know that when you put value out there, there’s at least one person you will influence.

 
 It is when you’re at you’re lowest; you get humbled, and become the authentic ‘you’. He has never felt more appreciative of others and their contribution to his life and society during hard times. Stephen wants to remind you that everything happens for a reason, and your social circle (family, friends, etc.) will always be there to help. 

  BEST MOMENTS
  
 “I love meeting new people; I love helping people and seeing the good in everybody.”

 
 “If you trust yourself and do what’s right from you, I think that is where it comes from… People make decisions from a legal point of view.”

 
 “People have to reinvent themselves. People can get stuck in a job for the rest of their life and never take a chance on anything.”

 
 “10,000 a month may be enough for one person, for a year or a lifetime. Or it may be not enough for you. But you need to think what’s right for you.”

 
 “I don’t need anyone to see what I do as long as I know what I do.”

        <![CDATA[<p><strong>One good deed a day. That’s what Stephen Morrow wants you to do—to live your life. We cannot notice the beauty in the mundane stuff when we’re too hooked with our schedules, quotas, goals, etc. There’s a lot to see. </strong></p> <p><strong>In this episode of the Fire in the Belly Podcast, we learn more about how to do things for other people. Know how appreciation and gratitude can go a long way when achieving your goals. Stephen also emphasises giving value to society first, listen in for stories on how Stephen has done this.</strong></p> <p><strong>KEY TAKEAWAYS</strong></p> <ul> <li>
<strong> </strong><strong>Learning in a traditional educational system was a struggle since he has dyslexia. So, it was outside the classrooms he learned most. He has tried being a car mechanic, a stone carver among other things. Though he has tried so many different jobs, it is in financial services he’s most comfortable.</strong>
</li> <li>
<strong> </strong><strong>After trying many jobs, he explored real estate investing. This is where he fully developed his financial and managing skills. And when the recession happened, he had to make tough decisions regarding his properties. He made a plan. He sold them first, then bought them back as soon as the market went stable.</strong>

      <title>E16: From Hangover to Handstand   Paul Berry Interview</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/paul-berry-interview</link>
      <description>No 9-5 work shift. No Being bossed around by someone else. No wasted time. Freedom and self-expression are very important to Paul Berry, an expert in gardening and the owner of Paul Berry Gardens.
 Today on the Fire in The Belly Podcast, Pete, your host, and Paul talks everything you need to know on how to catapult your way to entrepreneurship. Yes, you can be your own boss, just like Paul. Paul developed his entrepreneurial skills as soon as he got out of college. He was hungry for success, for his future empire. He built his property portfolio and then started his own ground maintenance company.
 Learn more about the importance of passion, empathy, gratitude, patience, and resilience in this episode.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  Being at school, being told to do something, never really sat well with Paul. He wanted to be an entrepreneur, his own boss, even at that young age. He entered university, but couldn’t wait anymore and left. Having a degree is the best option; no mistake in that. He just decided he personally would learn more in the outside world.
 Paul didn’t have any idea where to start. But had this unsettling feeling, a powerful urge to get out and chase what’s meant for him. He had big ambitions for himself and no one was going to stop him.
 His property portfolio was doing well until the worst came, which was around the year 2011. He had to give up some properties. That was hard for him since nobody enjoys having to fail. He had terrible fits of anxiety. But little by little, he started to rebuild.
 No man is an island. Success can be achieved effectively with the help of others. Admit it. Empathy and compassion can go a long way. No one should be blamed when things hit the fan. And more so, people should be credited when they do a wonderful job.
 Paul is always on the journey to improve and better himself. It’s important that you continue persevering—that fire in the belly. Look for ways on how available resources can help you. For Paul, attending therapy sessions helped him. He also continues learning—reading books, listening to mentors, etc.
  BEST MOMENTS
  “The entire system of having to grade someone at an early age…it’s just puts pressure on all angles. For me, it’s just a negative.”
 “I have this opinion of myself that I’ll be a millionaire by 30. That drove me—that thought process.”
 “I feel I’m properly living now. I have no fear anymore. I’ve learned so much about myself. I’m not scared of success now.”

      <title>E15: Personal Development – with Hugh Hegarty</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/personal-development-with-hugh-hegarty</link>
      <description>Hugh Hegarty is a business mentor and coach. He’s trained in NLP, or the neuro-linguistic programming, which helps his clients with their personal development, get over issues like trauma, phobias, or depression.
 And today on the Fire in The Belly Podcast, Hugh discusses more on NLP, personal development, focused mindset, and importance of communication above other topics. He also shares some personal stories from his childhood which influenced his values. Just like him, he wants other people to tap on their unlimited resources, to believe in themselves, and to move today to achieve their goals.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS 
  Our mothers are the real MVPs. Hugh looks back on how her mother took care of her when he was a child and how she inspired her to be the person he is right now. This also inspires him to be the best dad to his two beautiful kids.
 Hugh doesn’t let any negativity, or inconveniences affect him for a long time. It can depress him, but he sees he makes changes every single day. He wants to better himself for himself and his family.
 Educate them—that’s one way that you can help people. To incite change within themselves, and to make them see the possibilities. Hugh also adds that reinforcing information, and repetition can be enormous factors in learning.
 Neuro-linguistic programming (NLP), which was started by Richard Bandler and John Grinder, is an excellent method in communication and personal development. Hugh trained for this to know how one can achieve balance within and make impactful changes.
  For those who are dealing with issues or who have limiting beliefs, NLP can greatly help. It’s a faster approach that involves hypnotherapy.
  Business mentoring or taking courses might be pricey for some. But they’re valued for a reason. You want to invest in yourself. Putting out money won’t be put to waste.
 Minor tasks for big changes. It might be difficult to notice improvements daily, but know that they are there. Hugh encourages you to do little by little, step by step. Don’t delay your success.
  BEST MOMENTS
  “Fire in the belly means for me the passion towards doing something that’s going to achieve a lifestyle or way of living that makes me happy.”
 “No matter how tough things may seem, it will pass.”
 “Raise your vibration.”

      <itunes:summary>Hugh Hegarty is a business mentor and coach. He’s trained in NLP, or the neuro-linguistic programming, which helps his clients with their personal development, get over issues like trauma, phobias, or depression.
 And today on the Fire in The Belly Podcast, Hugh discusses more on NLP, personal development, focused mindset, and importance of communication above other topics. He also shares some personal stories from his childhood which influenced his values. Just like him, he wants other people to tap on their unlimited resources, to believe in themselves, and to move today to achieve their goals.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS 
  Our mothers are the real MVPs. Hugh looks back on how her mother took care of her when he was a child and how she inspired her to be the person he is right now. This also inspires him to be the best dad to his two beautiful kids.
 Hugh doesn’t let any negativity, or inconveniences affect him for a long time. It can depress him, but he sees he makes changes every single day. He wants to better himself for himself and his family.
 Educate them—that’s one way that you can help people. To incite change within themselves, and to make them see the possibilities. Hugh also adds that reinforcing information, and repetition can be enormous factors in learning.
 Neuro-linguistic programming (NLP), which was started by Richard Bandler and John Grinder, is an excellent method in communication and personal development. Hugh trained for this to know how one can achieve balance within and make impactful changes.
  For those who are dealing with issues or who have limiting beliefs, NLP can greatly help. It’s a faster approach that involves hypnotherapy.
  Business mentoring or taking courses might be pricey for some. But they’re valued for a reason. You want to invest in yourself. Putting out money won’t be put to waste.
 Minor tasks for big changes. It might be difficult to notice improvements daily, but know that they are there. Hugh encourages you to do little by little, step by step. Don’t delay your success.
  BEST MOMENTS
  “Fire in the belly means for me the passion towards doing something that’s going to achieve a lifestyle or way of living that makes me happy.”
 “No matter how tough things may seem, it will pass.”
 “Raise your vibration.”

      <title>E14: Know your Core Beliefs – Andrew Dobbin</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/know-your-core-beliefs-andrew-dobbin</link>
      <description>Andrew Dobbins is the owner of the Business Mindset. As a business mentor and a Mastermind Facilitator, he has helped individuals and companies grow their businesses. In today’s episode of the Fire In The Belly Podcast, Pete talks to Andrew about his journey in long-life learning and mentoring. Andrew emphasises that his core beliefs have helped him a lot in achieving more than he could ever imagine in life right now. Him applying his Christian teachings and him burying his face in books every single time he gets has helped him better himself too.
 Andrew wants people to know that there are other things that are more important than money. Value the surrounding people, value what’s important to you. Tune in now to know more.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS 
  It’s important that you know yourself. It’s easier to behave and act around when you know your core value and beliefs. For Andrew, his faith is what he keeps close to his heart. He’s a Christian, and he attributes all his success to it.
 Continue learning. Andrew wasn’t a big reader while he was growing up—no fairy tales, no science fiction. Then he saw the benefits in reading. He kept reading and learning primarily for self-development and business.
 Andrew loves the glory of having to help individuals, and companies grow themselves. Seeing that he made a difference drives him to be create more impact for more people.
 Most are not happy with their jobs because there is no freedom. They don’t control their time and/or they can’t speak their minds. Not that entrepreneurs have control over everything. But they can do things differently. They are their own bosses.
 In coaching, they won’t tell you what to do, you find out things yourself. In mentoring, the mentor works alongside the client.
 Wealth is not money. When you define wealth as something that can help you better yourself. It’s not just about the prosperity of money. There should also be prosperity in other aspects of your life.
 Andrew tries to make everything perfect. No mistakes. If there is something to be improved, even a small thing, continue tweaking until you get to near perfect, if not perfect.
 Respect people who you’re in business with. There should be no discrimination, so you can provide quality services to everyone.
 It’s unpredictable what happens in the UK market. So as much as possible, be prepared on whatever happens. Check your streams of income. Plan so you or your business stay afloat any unforeseen circumstance.
  BEST MOMENTS
  “I wasn’t about the money. It was the achievement. Making something better made a difference.”
 “I think a lot of people has passion for things.”
 “People go the extra mile not because they have to, it’s because they want to.”
 “Events happen but it’s how you respond to them that matters.”
 “Never give up, keep learning.”

      <title>E12: Passion And Purpose – with Jordan Wright</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/passion-and-purpose-with-jordan-wright</link>
      <description>Jordan Wright is a breakthrough and transformational coach, specialising in helping people push through the boundaries and barriers that hold them back in life, with a particular focus on helping those in business who may find themselves at a plateau, and who wish to elevate further.
 To Jordan, “Fire In The Belly” represents the passion and purpose that have driven him from a childhood clouded by a lack of self-belief and disillusionment, to become a world-class empowerment coach, whose clarity of mind has helped countless others to buck the trend and change their lives.
 In today’s show, Jordan talks candidly about the inner fire that fuels this passion and purpose.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  Everyone has a fire inside them, but social conditioning sees to it that we always feel reticent to chase it. Certainly this lack of belief is the fuel that pushed Jordan forwards. During his adolescence he felt invisible and had no confidence.
   
  Realisation hit Jordan like a lightning bolt, when he realised that he was almost two decades into his life, and had achieved nothing. Feeling that he was different from the others, he decided to buck the trend of live-work-die.
   
  Whenever you suffer bullying or oppression in life, you develop a barrier, or an armour, self-imposed to help you deal with attack. 
   
  University didn’t speak to Jordan’s soul. What was the sense in putting himself in debt, so that he could perhaps earn money in the future? Preferring instead to gain his experience in the real world, he followed his instincts.
   
  Security was of paramount concern early in Jordan’s life. During his youth, financial security was a value that was impressed upon him by his parents. This led to a desire to be financially free.
   
  Jordan is not afraid to admit that during a particularly anxious crossroads in his life, he chose to retract his bid for financial freedom in order to provide security for his family. When he finally took the leap, he knew, instinctively, that he had made the right decision, as the sense of relief was overwhelming.
   
  Everything happens for a reason. Even the bad things that pop up can steer us towards revelations in our own perception that can cause us to take decisive actions.
   
  Most people will trade their time for money, but what they’re actually doing is trading parts of their life for money. Remember that it’s not time you’re selling, it’s life. You’re selling missed opportunities, moments with your loved ones and days you’ll never see again. How much is your life worth?
   
  Entrepreneurship can be a lonely game, We often spend long periods feeling guarded, as though everyone is out to get us. It’s a totally different mentality to those who choose to work and follow society’s expected route. Being an entrepreneur separates you entirely.
   
  Don’t wait for permission to take the leap towards your goals. Don’t wait for the time “to be right”, because it’ll never truly be right. 
   
  People don't credit themselves enough for their achievements. We need to take a step back sometimes and marvel at how far we’ve come, as well as the good we’ve put into the world.
   
  There’s a growing sector of people who believe they have the ability to teach others how to achieve success, but it takes a special mentor to help you achieve lasting change. Jordan’s fire-in-the-belly comes from his desire to disrupt the personal development space and provide true change in people’s lives.
   
  There are two types of belief: outcome-based and identity-based. “I can’t do that” doesn’t mean that they can’t do it, it just means that they don’t know how to do it. To say that “I am not good enough to do this” is an identity-based belief based upon who they perceive themselves to be.
   
  Don’t care about what people think. Be authentic. You can’t love anyone else if you don't love yourself, because the fears you internalise will display themselves externally. 
   
  Suppressing our true selves, and holding down the way we feel is a form of suppression. Depression is an extension of suppression, and can compound as a result. Opening up to people from an early age, and being encouraged to do that as part of growing into a healthy human being, is a vital step in everyone’s life-cycle.
  BEST MOMENTS
  ‘All business problems are personal problems’

      <itunes:summary>Jordan Wright is a breakthrough and transformational coach, specialising in helping people push through the boundaries and barriers that hold them back in life, with a particular focus on helping those in business who may find themselves at a plateau, and who wish to elevate further.
 To Jordan, “Fire In The Belly” represents the passion and purpose that have driven him from a childhood clouded by a lack of self-belief and disillusionment, to become a world-class empowerment coach, whose clarity of mind has helped countless others to buck the trend and change their lives.
 In today’s show, Jordan talks candidly about the inner fire that fuels this passion and purpose.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  Everyone has a fire inside them, but social conditioning sees to it that we always feel reticent to chase it. Certainly this lack of belief is the fuel that pushed Jordan forwards. During his adolescence he felt invisible and had no confidence.
   
  Realisation hit Jordan like a lightning bolt, when he realised that he was almost two decades into his life, and had achieved nothing. Feeling that he was different from the others, he decided to buck the trend of live-work-die.
   
  Whenever you suffer bullying or oppression in life, you develop a barrier, or an armour, self-imposed to help you deal with attack. 
   
  University didn’t speak to Jordan’s soul. What was the sense in putting himself in debt, so that he could perhaps earn money in the future? Preferring instead to gain his experience in the real world, he followed his instincts.
   
  Security was of paramount concern early in Jordan’s life. During his youth, financial security was a value that was impressed upon him by his parents. This led to a desire to be financially free.
   
  Jordan is not afraid to admit that during a particularly anxious crossroads in his life, he chose to retract his bid for financial freedom in order to provide security for his family. When he finally took the leap, he knew, instinctively, that he had made the right decision, as the sense of relief was overwhelming.
   
  Everything happens for a reason. Even the bad things that pop up can steer us towards revelations in our own perception that can cause us to take decisive actions.
   
  Most people will trade their time for money, but what they’re actually doing is trading parts of their life for money. Remember that it’s not time you’re selling, it’s life. You’re selling missed opportunities, moments with your loved ones and days you’ll never see again. How much is your life worth?
   
  Entrepreneurship can be a lonely game, We often spend long periods feeling guarded, as though everyone is out to get us. It’s a totally different mentality to those who choose to work and follow society’s expected route. Being an entrepreneur separates you entirely.
   
  Don’t wait for permission to take the leap towards your goals. Don’t wait for the time “to be right”, because it’ll never truly be right. 
   
  People don't credit themselves enough for their achievements. We need to take a step back sometimes and marvel at how far we’ve come, as well as the good we’ve put into the world.
   
  There’s a growing sector of people who believe they have the ability to teach others how to achieve success, but it takes a special mentor to help you achieve lasting change. Jordan’s fire-in-the-belly comes from his desire to disrupt the personal development space and provide true change in people’s lives.
   
  There are two types of belief: outcome-based and identity-based. “I can’t do that” doesn’t mean that they can’t do it, it just means that they don’t know how to do it. To say that “I am not good enough to do this” is an identity-based belief based upon who they perceive themselves to be.
   
  Don’t care about what people think. Be authentic. You can’t love anyone else if you don't love yourself, because the fears you internalise will display themselves externally. 
   
  Suppressing our true selves, and holding down the way we feel is a form of suppression. Depression is an extension of suppression, and can compound as a result. Opening up to people from an early age, and being encouraged to do that as part of growing into a healthy human being, is a vital step in everyone’s life-cycle.
  BEST MOMENTS
  ‘All business problems are personal problems’ 
 ‘I essentially reinvented myself over the years’ 
 ‘Why do we try so hard to fit in, when we’re born to stand out?’ 
 ‘I was more driven by pain than pleasure’ 
 ‘I felt like I was drifting in life. I didn’t know that we were meant for something more’ 
 ‘I must start before I am ready’ 
 ‘We both have an affinity with fire here, don’t we?’ 
 ‘People are pushing against obstacles. That’s why they’re tired’ 
 ’There’s no failure. There’s only feedback’

      <title>E11: Changing Your Life For The Better - with Seamus Fox</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/changing-your-life-for-the-better-with-seamus-fox</link>
      <description>Seamus Fox’s business journey began during his days as a personal trainer. Since then he’s gone on to become one of the country’s most respected business consultants, regularly being called in to guide gym owners and other personal trainers in every aspect of this specialist industry.
 Seamus’ success has all been self-motivated. It’s a tale that began during a dark period in his life, and which has brought him to the top through a combination of hard work and self-empowerment. By finding his “why”, Seamus has driven himself ever forward, using the fire in his belly as rocket-fuel to take him higher.
 Hear how he did it in this week’s inspiring episode of Fire In The Belly.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  Nothing is plain sailing all the time. there are always hiccups and obstacles in the road. By finding your “why”, and keeping the fires inside you stoked, you can re-focus during these darker times.
   
  Seamus hit rock bottom in 2003, and found himself unhappy and unfulfilled with his life. The desire to implement change came internally, and has driven him ever since.
   
  Through early job experience, Seamus always felt that something was missing. He eventually identified this missing element as creativity, or rather the lack of it in the jobs he was doing. At time he felt like a robot. This gave him the desire to find something he could apply himself to in a creative way.
   
  Seamus’ newfound craving for personal development extended not to just mental progress, but physical. By focussing on his health, Seamus finally discovered the place in life that he’d been searching for.
   
  During his most rapid business growth period, Seamus began to notice that he was becoming farmore aware of his thought process, and how his mind-set was affecting outcomes in his career.
   
  A planned move to create franchises of his extremely popular Fighting Fit business did not pan out. This coupled with a personal calamity, almost drove Seamus into despair. But having experienced success, he determined to build himself up again using the same mental strength that he’d used to found his brand.
   
  Fighting Fit was rebranded, and revolutionised completely, focussing instead on highly personalised physical development instead of class-sized sessions. The tactic worked, and Fighting Fit saw a new burst of success that continues to this day.
   
  A coach is a vital part of being in business. It makes you accountable to someone, and also gives you someone to turn to when the going gets tough.
   
  You can create any kind of life for yourself, and pull yourself back from the brink of failure. All you need is the drive to keep going, and the will to succeed.
  BEST MOMENTS
  ‘For me it’s about motivation. It’s about my “why”' 
 ‘Change happens through inspiration or desperation' 
 ‘I’ve always had a drive to improve myself’ 
 ‘At the time I thought it was their fault. Looking back, I can see it was mine’ 
 ‘It’s grown into something much bigger’ 
 ‘If you’re at a point where you’re happy and content with life, then brilliant!'

The desire to implement change came internally, and has driven him ever since.</li> </ul> <p> </p> <ul> <li>Through early job experience, Seamus always felt that something was missing. He eventually identified this missing element as creativity, or rather the lack of it in the jobs he was doing. At time he felt like a robot. This gave him the desire to find something he could apply himself to in a creative way.</li> </ul> <p> </p> <ul> <li>Seamus’ newfound craving for personal development extended not to just mental progress, but physical. By focussing on his health, Seamus finally discovered the place in life that he’d been searching for.</li> </ul> <p> </p> <ul> <li>During his most rapid business growth period, Seamus began to notice that he was becoming far<em></em>more aware of his thought process, and how his mind-set was affecting outcomes in his career.</li> </ul> <p> </p> <ul> <li>A planned move to create franchises of his extremely popular Fighting Fit business did not pan out. This coupled with a personal calamity, almost drove Seamus into despair. But having experienced success, he determined to build himself up again using the same mental strength that he’d used to found his brand.</li> </ul> <p> </p> <ul> <li>Fighting Fit was rebranded, and revolutionised completely, focussing instead on highly personalised physical development instead of class-sized sessions. The tactic worked, and Fighting Fit saw a new burst of success that continues to this day.</li> </ul> <p> </p> <ul> <li>A coach is a vital part of being in business. It makes you accountable to someone, and also gives you someone to turn to when the going gets tough.</li> </ul> <p> </p> <ul> <li>You can create any kind of life for yourself, and pull yourself back from the brink of failure. All you need is the drive to keep going, and the will to succeed.</li> </ul> <p><strong>BEST MOMENTS</strong></p> <ul> <li><em>‘For me it’s about motivation.

      <title>E10: Being In The Moment - with Alan Wallace</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/being-in-the-moment-with-alan-wallace</link>
      <description>Alan Wallace is as driven as they come. A self-made marketing and sales expert, who’s driven by his purpose: to inspire and motivate, to grow and develop each day, and to live to serve. 
 Alan has fought his way back from serious illness to take control of his life, harnessing the fire in his belly to develop and grow as a human being, and to be the best version of himself he can possibly be.
 In this week’s show, Alan talks about his incredible journey.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  One of the greatest realisations for Alan was that “now” is what matters. It’s all very well to plan ahead, but not as the cost of the present.
   
  Always aim higher than the target you wish to hit. You may fail, but you will be far nearer to your target than you could possibly have dreamed.
   
  At 19, Alan took a serious interest in personal development. He seemed to have a fear of life itself, and thinks that this may have come through the lack of expectations of himself. It took time to find his place in the world.
   
  Making a sale is one of the biggest thrills in the world. Convincing someone to accept something you’re offering is a test of your skill and your resilience.
   
  During a serious illness, which robbed Alan of several years of his life, he chose to use this forced downtime to develop and grow as a human being, and applied himself to studying.
   
  Even when you have nothing in life, there’s a place of real joy. Alan is not scared to lose as he’s already been at the bottom, and used his time there to become a better version of himself.
   
  Personal development seminars and events are all very well, but they can’t be the most exciting thing in your life. Your life should be the most important thing. Get out there and live it.
   
  Some people are far too hard on themselves. It’s so crucial to forgive ourselves for the things we do or don’t do. Many of our judgments come from perceptions of what people want us to be.
   
  If you inspire someone, then you have the power to light them up. If you can impact someone in a positive way, you can cause a sea-change within them that can spark an entirely new journey.
   
  Don’t settle and don’t relax. There’s another adventure out there waiting for you. There are always more people to meet and inspire.
   
  
 BEST MOMENTS
  ‘I’m hooked on it!’ 
 ‘I’m just passionate about living life’ 
 ‘Who are you going to motivate today?’ 
 ’That thing that cut me down really grew me as a person’ 
 ‘It’s freedom that attracts people’ 
 ‘I love meeting people who have fire in the belly, because they’re infectious'

      <title>E8: Leaving A Lasting Legacy And Finding Your Why – with Gary Doherty</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/leaving-a-lasting-legacy-and-finding-your-why-with</link>
      <description>This week, Pete talks to Gary Doherty, the founder of THINK Network, whose mission is simple: to passionately spread positivity, motivation and inspiration through empowering networking events across Northern Ireland and beyond.
 Pete and Gary discuss Gary’s definition of what fire in the belly means to him, and crucially what it is to him, the power of networking and mentoring, and his inspiring journey from the very bottom, and the incredible ascent to where he is now.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  For Gary, “fire in the belly” is the why that drives him forward. It took a period of self-analysis for Gary to realise that his “why” is wanting to leave a legacy for his family; to make his children proud of who their father was.
   
  Through necessity, Gary found himself required to take a job in sales in a store, which was very far out of his comfort zone as his previous work had not been customer facing. Within two and half years he had overcome his nerves and was managing the store.
   
  The accumulation of wealth instilled a new sense of arrogance in Gary, and the desire for more materialistic goods. He admits now that this phase saw him become a dark version of himself.
   
  We should never become emotionally attached to bricks-and-mortar, even if it’s our own home. The true sum value of any home is the people in it. 
   
  What sets people apart is the mindset, not the intellectual achievements of their lives. Their unique offerings lie in drive, determination, resilience and self-belief.
   
  After an insolvency, and the complete collapse of his business empire, Gary started anew. He began by gaining education, and put himself through university to earn a Bachelor’s degree in business, which gave him the confidence and drive to go further.
   
  THINK Network is being designed to be the Facebook of Personal Development, with an international reach and the power to truly change lives. In the past 14 months, it has seen incredible results in Northern Ireland, and now the plan is to take it to the global stage.
   
  Gary can see now that property was not the “why he was looking for. His current work with THINK is truly fulfilling, and adds fire to his belly each and every day.
   
  People are far too afraid to praise others these days, as they see it as some kind of elevation above themselves. Gary is a proponent of honesty, and credit where it’s due.
  BEST MOMENTS
  ‘I’m a father now. I’m a husband now. What am I going to do?’ 
 ‘I was young and dumb. I knew nothing about property’ 
 ‘I had become a not-very-nice version of myself’ 
 ‘When I look back, that was a defining moment’ 
 ‘I’ll get to the end, even if I’m last’ 
 ’Time and hard work and opportunity equals luck’ 
 ’This is the vehicle to get to my “why”’ 
 ’Success is the journey that I’m on right now'

        <![CDATA[<p>This week, Pete talks to Gary Doherty, the founder of THINK Network, whose mission is simple: to passionately spread positivity, motivation and inspiration through empowering networking events across Northern Ireland and beyond.</p> <p>Pete and Gary discuss Gary’s definition of what fire in the belly means to him, and crucially what it <em>is</em> to him, the power of networking and mentoring, and his inspiring journey from the very bottom, and the incredible ascent to where he is now.</p> <p><strong>KEY TAKEAWAYS</strong></p> <ul> <li>For Gary, “fire in the belly” is the <em>why</em> that drives him forward. It took a period of self-analysis for Gary to realise that his “why” is wanting to leave a legacy for his family; to make his children proud of who their father was.</li> </ul> <p> </p> <ul> <li>Through necessity, Gary found himself required to take a job in sales in a store, which was very far out of his comfort zone as his previous work had not been customer facing. Within two and half years he had overcome his nerves and was managing the store.</li> </ul> <p> </p> <ul> <li>The accumulation of wealth instilled a new sense of arrogance in Gary, and the desire for more materialistic goods. He admits now that this phase saw him become a dark version of himself.</li> </ul> <p> </p> <ul> <li>We should never become emotionally attached to bricks-and-mortar, even if it’s our own home. The true sum value of any home is the people in it. </li> </ul> <p> </p> <ul> <li>What sets people apart is the mindset, not the intellectual achievements of their lives. Their unique offerings lie in drive, determination, resilience and self-belief.</li> </ul> <p> </p> <ul> <li>After an insolvency, and the complete collapse of his business empire, Gary started anew. He began by gaining education, and put himself through university to earn a Bachelor’s degree in business, which gave him the confidence and drive to go further.</li> </ul> <p> </p> <ul> <li>THINK Network is being designed to be the Facebook of Personal Development, with an international reach and the power to truly change lives. In the past 14 months, it has seen incredible results in Northern Ireland, and now the plan is to take it to the global stage.</li> </ul> <p> </p> <ul> <li>Gary can see now that property was not the “why he was looking for. His current work with THINK is truly fulfilling, and adds fire to his belly each and every day.</li> </ul> <p> </p> <ul> <li>People are far too afraid to praise others these days, as they see it as some kind of elevation above themselves. Gary is a proponent of honesty, and credit where it’s due.</li> </ul> <p><strong>BEST MOMENTS</strong></p> <ul> <li><em>‘I’m a father now. I’m a husband now. What am I going to do?’ </em></li> <li><em>‘I was young and dumb. I knew nothing about property’ </em></li> <li><em>‘I had become a not-very-nice version of myself’ </em></li> <li><em>‘When I look back, that was a defining moment’ </em></li> <li><em>‘I’ll get to the end, even if I’m last’ </em></li> <li><em>’Time and hard work and opportunity equals luck’ </em></li> <li><em>’This is the vehicle to get to my “why”’ </em></li> <li><em>’Success is the journey that I’m on right now' </em></li> </ul> <p> </p> <p><strong>VALUABLE RESOURCES</strong></p> <p>THINK Network Twitter - <a href="https://twitter.com/thinknetwork1?lang=en">https://twitter.com/thinknetwork1?lang=en</a></p> <p>THINK Network - <a href="http://thinknetwork.co/">http://thinknetwork.co</a></p> <p>THINK Instagram - <a href="https://www.instagram.com/think.network/">https://www.instagram.com/think.network/</a></p> <p>THINK LinkedIn - <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/groups/8725794">https://www.linkedin.com/groups/8725794</a></p> <p>THINK Facebook - <a href="https://www.facebook.com/thinknetworkni/">https://www.facebook.com/thinknetworkni/</a></p> <p><strong>ABOUT THE HOST</strong><br><strong>The ‘Mighty Pete Lonton’ from the ‘Mighty 247’ company is your main host of ‘Fire In The Belly’. </strong></p> <p>Pete is an Entrepreneur, Mentor, Coach, Property Investor and father of 3 beautiful girls.

      <title>E9: Unlocking Disruptive Secrets To Success – with Michael Colhoun</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/unlocking-disruptive-secrets-to-success-with-micha</link>
      <description>As one of the founders of the Transforming People Academy, which specialises in accelerated learning, coaching and personal development, Michael Colhoun knows all about what it means to harness the fire in your belly, and turn that passion into something positive.
 Michael joins Pete on this week’s show to discuss the challenges he faces in bringing about this positive change to a society very much set in its ways, the ways in which yoga has improved his connection between mind and body, how to turn negatives into positives, and how he built his journey upon discovering the secret that makes things work better for everyone.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  Especially in Northern Ireland, there seems to be a growing need for some way to help people see past the blocks and barricades that may be keeping their desire for personal growth. Michael and his academy are at the forefront of bringing those barriers down.
   
  If you can understand the methods and strategies that enabled someone to achieve success in their life, then you should be able to emulate that formula in order to find success for yourself.
   
  Yoga gave Michael the capability to tap into hitherto undisturbed forces within himself, in order to release energy that restored his flow-status. 
   
  If you’re doing a certain thing throughout your life, and you’re good at it, but not necessarily successful as a result of it, it can be difficult to pull yourself away from that “safety zone”
   
  We are responsible for the results we attain. We’re responsible for the choices we make. We’re also responsible for whether we feel good or bad. Each negative can be turned into a positive. We need to have a resilient internal voice in order to do so.
   
  It can be so easy to blame external forces for our sense of inadequacy, or our failures. The reality is that those feelings are just triggers for lessons you haven’t learned yet.
   
  Despite a hugely successful career in IT, Michael recognised that his future was in development, due to his experiences with NLP and the benefits that it can bring. This caused shock to those who knew him, but instinctually he knew that his choice was sound.
   
  One of the greatest pieces of education came through working alongside successful people with complex problems, and solving those problems on their behalf. Most of these issues stemmed from miscommunication, and through his NLP experience, Michael was able to make himself invaluable.
   
  Problem solving for Michael comes through not just getting from Point A to Point B, but understanding the wider issues that caused the problem, and the satellite issues that circle it. by gaining a depth of understanding, he can not only solve Point B, but Point C if asked.
   
  Michael gets direct feedback from teaching when he understands something so well, that his teachings provide “A-ha” moments from his students. By being able to communicate teachings in that spirit, we are truly mastering our subject.
   
  It’s as crucial to prepare your environment for your flow state as it is to be in the flow state itself. “Yak Shaving” is the process by where we do away with the things that will prevent this flow state from occurring, or can distract us once we’re there
   
 BEST MOMENTS
  ‘If one person can do it, then anyone can do it’ 
 ‘I had a choice whether to feel good, or feel like a victim’ 
 ‘If you’re going to feel bad, then you might as well schedule it’ 
 ‘A big part of it is confidence and certainty’ 
 ‘I call it “deep dive” learning’ 
 ‘If you want to understand something, read it. If you want to know something, write about it. If you want to master something, teach it’ 
 ’The tell-tale is that time disappears’ 
 ‘How do we start to create a better future for everybody?’

      <title>E6: You Can Have Anything You Want – with Pat Slattery</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/you-can-have-anything-you-want-with-pat-slattery</link>
      <description>Pete Lonton is joined by international speaker, coach and mentor, Pat Slattery, a man who’s spent over twenty years helping people to live their dreams and realise their potential. It’s a pursuit that continues to fascinate Pat, and one he’s devoted himself to entirely.
 In this special conversation, Pat describes the motivations behind his mission, the reasons for the fire in his belly, the dangers of conformity, and the formula for life and living that he uses himself, and which he is on a mission to share with the world.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  There are many people out there following their dreams and goals, and killing themselves on the treadmills of life in order to do so. Pat has come to realise that family, friends, relationships and joy are the things we should never take for granted.
   
  If you put quality time into your life for living, then you’ll have a quantity of time to enjoy it. It’s a formula Pat uses himself, and a core principle of his teachings.
   
  Most are people-pleasers. Most people are conformists. The greatest enemy of man is conformity, as it dictates the patterns of our days and lives.
   
  People need to realise where they’re at. It’s easy to go with the crowd. We need to question everything. it’s the disruptors who make a difference.
   
  We’re not born into the world with negativity. From the moment we’re born, we’re growing. We feel the energy immediately when we do something right, but similarly, we are gently conditioned to conform through behavioural patterns.
   
  Success isn’t about intellectual intelligence. It’s about expanding your mind through meeting people are learning about what’s possible.
   
  There’s far too much focus on failure. We think too much about what could go wrong. We need to look for the phenomenal in each person. What are we capable of if we put our minds to it?
   
  Dig deep and look inside for your better qualities; for your proudest moments. Celebrate your wins at every opportunity.
   
  Listen with intent instead of listening with the aim of responding. When someone wants to share with you, make sure you are fully committed to hearing what they’re saying.
   
  Many people are chasing money, and so this is mostly seen as the motivating factor behind people’s lives. but money is simply the means to a better life, and happiness, which are the true aims in people’s lives.
  BEST MOMENTS
  ‘I support people in living their dreams and going after their goals’ 
 ’The reward is seeing the results that people get’ 
 ‘I’ve come to realise the difference between quality and quantity’ 
 ‘Conformity dumbs people down’ 
 ’You’re entitled to your wrong opinions’ 
 ‘Have you ever made a negative baby?’ 
 ’The bonfires are the ones out there doing something’ 
 ‘Everybody has something of value to bring to the table’ 
 ‘Life is a fight for territory’ 
 ‘Choose to be the best you can be'

      <itunes:summary>Pete Lonton is joined by international speaker, coach and mentor, Pat Slattery, a man who’s spent over twenty years helping people to live their dreams and realise their potential. It’s a pursuit that continues to fascinate Pat, and one he’s devoted himself to entirely.
 In this special conversation, Pat describes the motivations behind his mission, the reasons for the fire in his belly, the dangers of conformity, and the formula for life and living that he uses himself, and which he is on a mission to share with the world.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  There are many people out there following their dreams and goals, and killing themselves on the treadmills of life in order to do so. Pat has come to realise that family, friends, relationships and joy are the things we should never take for granted.
   
  If you put quality time into your life for living, then you’ll have a quantity of time to enjoy it. It’s a formula Pat uses himself, and a core principle of his teachings.
   
  Most are people-pleasers. Most people are conformists. The greatest enemy of man is conformity, as it dictates the patterns of our days and lives.
   
  People need to realise where they’re at. It’s easy to go with the crowd. We need to question everything. it’s the disruptors who make a difference.
   
  We’re not born into the world with negativity. From the moment we’re born, we’re growing. We feel the energy immediately when we do something right, but similarly, we are gently conditioned to conform through behavioural patterns.
   
  Success isn’t about intellectual intelligence. It’s about expanding your mind through meeting people are learning about what’s possible.
   
  There’s far too much focus on failure. We think too much about what could go wrong. We need to look for the phenomenal in each person. What are we capable of if we put our minds to it?
   
  Dig deep and look inside for your better qualities; for your proudest moments. Celebrate your wins at every opportunity.
   
  Listen with intent instead of listening with the aim of responding. When someone wants to share with you, make sure you are fully committed to hearing what they’re saying.
   
  Many people are chasing money, and so this is mostly seen as the motivating factor behind people’s lives. but money is simply the means to a better life, and happiness, which are the true aims in people’s lives.
  BEST MOMENTS
  ‘I support people in living their dreams and going after their goals’ 
 ’The reward is seeing the results that people get’ 
 ‘I’ve come to realise the difference between quality and quantity’ 
 ‘Conformity dumbs people down’ 
 ’You’re entitled to your wrong opinions’ 
 ‘Have you ever made a negative baby?’ 
 ’The bonfires are the ones out there doing something’ 
 ‘Everybody has something of value to bring to the table’ 
 ‘Life is a fight for territory’ 
 ‘Choose to be the best you can be'

      <title>E5: The Want And Need For More In Life – with Khadija Kalifa</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/the-want-and-need-for-more-in-life-with-khadija-ka</link>
      <description>Pete talks to BBC’s The Apprentice finalist, Khadija Kalifa, who has, since leaving the show in 2018, gone on to become one of the nation’s most sought-after business coaches, due to her no-nonsense approach and wealth of experience.
 Khadija talks about the importance of self-development, the axiom that causes her to seize each day, the importance of optimism, and her empowering definition of what it means to have “fire in the belly”.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  For Khadija, the want and need for more to life, is the fuel that keeps her growing and moving on. All good entrepreneurs have an unquenchable desire to keep succeeding.
   
  You only have one life. If you are presented with opportunities, then you need to try to make the best of them. Count your blessings and realise that you’re not here forever. Seize the day.
   
  Success in her youth had a converse effect on Khadija. Even though she worked hard and achieved much, she was often looked down upon because of her age. it’s a common, and somewhat unfortunate occurrence.
   
   People often mistake optimism with naivety. But the ability to see past the negative, to look for the positive in all things, is a rare and valuable asset.
   
  Having fire in your belly and doing nothing with it is futile. You need to get up, get out there, and let that fire burn bright. Khadija used her energy to hustle, and to make her mark on the world.
   
  Children made Khadija realise that there are definitely things to feel blessed about. It has given her a different perspective on materialism, frustration, and life in general.
   
  Money means stability for Khadija and her family. Money is equal to the security and happiness of those closest to her. This is the reason that drives her forward.
   
  Following The Apprentice, Khadija was given the opportunity to evaluate her life and her business. The opportunities that came her way in the wake of her appearance allowed her to see that her cleaning business was not her destiny.
   
  Personal relationships are an incredibly important part of business, as they are a vital component in your happiness, and subsequent desire to achieve.
   
  Khadija has had to face monstrous egos and an incredible level of chauvinism during her journey. The key is to stay humble, and to use that negative force as a means to drive yourself harder.
   
  Procrastination prevents things from getting done. It’s far more expedient to get things done as soon as possible. Ask questions. Take action. Stop making excuses.
   
  Enjoy the journey. We must make sure that we stop to enjoy the life we’re living. It’s good for not just ourselves, but the ones we love.
  BEST MOMENTS
  ‘A bit of meat to the bone (even though I’m a pescatarian…)’ 
 ‘I’m working hard because I like to play hard’ 
 ‘I think I thought I knew everything’ 
 ’Nothing you can do will ever stop me from living my best life’ 
 ‘I feel like this wasn’t the life I was destined to be in’ 
 ’There’s surviving and then there’s thriving’ 
 ’Stay humble’ 
 ‘I want to make shit happen’ 
 ’There’s so much to be grateful for in life'

      <title>E4: Thoughts Turn Into Things – with Kim Calvert</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/thoughts-turn-into-things-with-kim-calvert</link>
      <description>This week, Pete talks to high-performance mentor, Kim Calvert, the co-founder of Dynamite Lifestyle, and a member of the Proctor Gallagher Institute Circle Of Excellence.
 As Proctor’s Number One Consultant, globally, Kim has devoted herself to helping people become unstuck; to move away from where they are, and get to where they want to be, through looking at the root cause of results, and harnessing the power of the mind.
 In this truly inspiring episode, Kim discusses the factors that make us all unique, the ways in which we can control the driving force we’re born with, and her personal definition of what it means to have “fire in the belly”
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  To Kim, “fire in the belly” means the burning desire that drives you onwards to do better. To be better. That drive to be more, want more, to have more.
   
  We’re all born with our own form of burning desire. It’s our responsibility to make ourselves aware of how it manifests itself, and to channel it into achieving our full potential.
   
  We’re all born the same. it is the sum total of our life experiences, that begin from day one, that turn our lives into an experience. It is the never-ending variation of pathways that make us unique.
   
  How we use our inner energy is dictated often by our environment, unless we use our minds as an overriding force to control it. If we sleepwalk through life, we will follow the formula of work-live-die. Without using our minds to take control, our path will be drawn out for us.
   
  Being brought up in a religious home, there were parts of her upbringing that Kim didn’t agree with, but it did instil a sense of faith itself within her. She now describes herself as non-religious but spiritual.
   
  Kim felt as though she never gained anything from formal education, and several of her educational issues were not flagged or addressed. Like many entrepreneurs, her success has been built upon her attitude rather than her grades.
   
  Kim’s main focus is to help people bridge that divide between the person we present to the world, and the person we truly are inside. There comes a moment in everyone’s life when we are shown the person we really are.
   
  Feelings, emotions and vibrations are all the same thing. They are the same energy; the energy that drives us to take action. 
   
  A need is something that’s generally associated with a negative thought. A want is something we aspire to, and therefore a positive.
   
  Leadership built upon a vision that no one else really gets or understands, is the basic building block upon which successful businesses are founded.
   
  People think the question of “what do I want?” is limited. They tend to overcomplicate it by adding these limitations. You must give yourself permission to dream bigger.
   
  Your passion or purpose will always try to get your attention in life, and steer you towards the right path. It’s when we choose to listen to that voice that we start to feel fulfilled.
   
  You have to learn to control your energy. When you learn to be grateful for what you’ve achieved, and when you learn to be present in each moment, your energy will even out.
   
  All the answers are already before you. If the questions are there, then so are the answers. Get a mentor, one who has demonstrated results, listen to what they say, and take action.
  BEST MOMENTS
  ‘Desire is a trigger mechanism to all action’ 
 ‘Everybody’s on this planet for a purpose’ 
 ‘We’re born with infinite ability’ 
 ‘It clicked. The fire in the belly was roaring’ 
 ‘It’s a journey. It’s a process. There will be ups and there will be downs’ 
 ‘You should never need anything. You should want stuff’ 
 ‘If you can see it, you can achieve it’ 
 ‘Your passion, your purpose, will always try to poke you’ 
 ‘We all have a built in thermometer, and it dictates the temperature of every moment in life’ 
 ‘Make decisions fast and change them slowly'

      <title>E3: The Truth of The Investment – with Mark Homer</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/the-truth-of-the-investment-with-mark-homer</link>
      <description>Everyone has a passion or a belief; something that drives them to be who they are. It’s a concept known as ‘Fire In The Belly’, explored further by Pete Lonton this week, when he discusses the driving forces behind the success of his special guest, Mark Homer.
 Mark is the co-founder of Progressive Property, the host of the Mark My Words podcast, and one of the UK’s most respected and successful property investment entrepreneurs. In this episode, Mark explains what “fire in the belly” means to him, as well as the purpose behind his mantra: “Focus like a laser on one thing, and become the best at it"
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  You need to invest in things you understand, and in which you can, to some extent control. Mark sees far too many get-rich-quick schemes that promise much, but deliver little. Each opportunity contains a truth at its centre. It’s about find that truth and deciding if it’s a fit for you.
   
  Mark was trained at an early age to always play the long game. Saving was a big part of his childhood, and delayed gratification was a value instilled into him by his frugal father. Patience is a quality that has served him well.
   
  Networking with the right people allows Mark to constantly learn and grow. By providing value to the people around him, and by drawing value for them, Mark is perpetually developing.
   
  Investment is largely based around logic. Many of Mark’s successes have been built upon his instinctual talent with numbers, and his highly efficient systems based on data.
   
  Logic sometimes has to take a backseat though. there are times when Mark calls upon his gut instincts to make decisions. But as he explains, these feelings are always based upon experience, which in itself, is a logical choice.
   
  Hard work and self-sufficiency are the main values that Mark is hoping to instil into his own children. The greatest gift anyone can be given is self-reliance.
   
  You can develop yourself if you apply yourself. Baby steps that take you forward, and playing the long game with patience, are essential components for success, development and happiness.
   
  You’re often best-off doing what you know. For Mark and his business partner, Rob Moore, the founding of Progressive property has allowed them to see where they belong, and has made them recognise that the skills and talents they possess are best suited to the company they have founded.
   
  Stagnation is always a business-killer. Look for the opportunities to grow, even in the smallest areas. Be the best you can possibly be.
   
  Ego drives Mark to a certain extent. Pride should be taken in achievement, and it should also be used as a barometer for future opportunities.
  BEST MOMENTS
  ‘I love finding the truth of an investment’ 
 ‘I don’t like being frivolous. It makes me feel sick’ 
 ‘People like that are inspiring’ 
 ‘Gut feeling is the distillation of all the things you’ve learned over the years’ 
 ‘If you buy into that then you’re not going to be successful’ 
 ‘Words are only so effective’ 
 ‘You’ve got to keep it fresh’

        <![CDATA[<p>Everyone has a passion or a belief; something that drives them to be who they are. It’s a concept known as ‘Fire In The Belly’, explored further by Pete Lonton this week, when he discusses the driving forces behind the success of his special guest, Mark Homer.</p> <p>Mark is the co-founder of Progressive Property, the host of the Mark My Words podcast, and one of the UK’s most respected and successful property investment entrepreneurs. In this episode, Mark explains what “fire in the belly” means to him, as well as the purpose behind his mantra: “Focus like a laser on one thing, and become the best at it"</p> <p><strong>KEY TAKEAWAYS</strong></p> <ul> <li>You need to invest in things you understand, and in which you can, to some extent control. Mark sees far too many get-rich-quick schemes that promise much, but deliver little. Each opportunity contains a truth at its centre. It’s about find that truth and deciding if it’s a fit for you.</li> </ul> <p> </p> <ul> <li>Mark was trained at an early age to always play the long game. Saving was a big part of his childhood, and delayed gratification was a value instilled into him by his frugal father. Patience is a quality that has served him well.</li> </ul> <p> </p> <ul> <li>Networking with the right people allows Mark to constantly learn and grow. By providing value to the people around him, and by drawing value for them, Mark is perpetually developing.</li> </ul> <p> </p> <ul> <li>Investment is largely based around logic. Many of Mark’s successes have been built upon his instinctual talent with numbers, and his highly efficient systems based on data.</li> </ul> <p> </p> <ul> <li>Logic sometimes has to take a backseat though. there are times when Mark calls upon his gut instincts to make decisions. But as he explains, these feelings are always based upon experience, which in itself, is a logical choice.</li> </ul> <p> </p> <ul> <li>Hard work and self-sufficiency are the main values that Mark is hoping to instil into his own children. The greatest gift anyone can be given is self-reliance.</li> </ul> <p> </p> <ul> <li>You can develop yourself if you apply yourself. Baby steps that take you forward, and playing the long game with patience, are essential components for success, development and happiness.</li> </ul> <p> </p> <ul> <li>You’re often best-off doing what you know. For Mark and his business partner, Rob Moore, the founding of Progressive property has allowed them to see where they belong, and has made them recognise that the skills and talents they possess are best suited to the company they have founded.</li> </ul> <p> </p> <ul> <li>Stagnation is always a business-killer. Look for the opportunities to grow, even in the smallest areas. Be the best you can possibly be.</li> </ul> <p> </p> <ul> <li>Ego drives Mark to a certain extent. Pride should be taken in achievement, and it should also be used as a barometer for future opportunities.</li> </ul> <p><strong>BEST MOMENTS</strong></p> <ul> <li><em>‘I love finding the truth of an investment’ </em></li> <li><em>‘I don’t like being frivolous. It makes me feel sick’ </em></li> <li><em>‘People like that are inspiring’ </em></li> <li><em>‘Gut feeling is the distillation of all the things you’ve learned over the years’ </em></li> <li><em>‘If you buy into that then you’re not going to be successful’ </em></li> <li><em>‘Words are only so effective’ </em></li> <li><em>‘You’ve got to keep it fresh’ </em></li> </ul> <p><strong>VALUABLE RESOURCES</strong></p> <p>Mark Homer LinkedIn - <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/markhomer1/?originalSubdomain=uk">https://www.linkedin.com/in/markhomer1/?originalSubdomain=uk</a></p> <p>Mark My Words - <a href="https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/mark-my-words-podcast/id1165370399">https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/mark-my-words-podcast/id1165370399</a></p> <p>Mark Homer Twitter - <a href="https://twitter.com/markprogressive?lang=en">https://twitter.com/markprogressive?lang=en</a></p> <p><br><strong>ABOUT THE HOST</strong><br><strong>The ‘Mighty Pete Lonton’ from the ‘Mighty 247’ company is your main host of ‘Fire In The Belly’. </strong></p> <p>Pete is an Entrepreneur, Mentor, Coach, Property Investor and father of 3 beautiful girls.

      <title>E2: Passion. Purpose. Progress – with Rob Moore</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/passion-purpose-progress-with-rob-moore</link>
      <description>Fire In The Belly is a new podcast by Pete Lonton, a groundbreaking series of in-depth interviews with an array of guests who have built their success upon their innate ability to drive themselves hard when it matters.
 In this episode, Pete talks to The Disruptive Entrepreneur himself, Rob Moore, a best-selling author, public speaker, entrepreneur and world-record holder, about what “fire in the belly” means to him. With a proven track record of success, and having helped over 100,000 entrepreneurs to achieve the same, Rob is the perfect example of a fighter who never quits; a man who has overcome pain, frustration and setbacks, to found a staggering empire built upon hard work and resilience.
 KEY TAKEAWAYS
  For Rob, the concept of “fire in the belly” means a combination of things. To grow, learn, and to reach that higher level, Rob has developed an endless source of enthusiasm and passion for what he does, built upon a journey that has seen him overcome many obstacles.
   
  Between the ages of 8 - 11, Rob found himself bullied due to being overweight. These were formative years, in which many would have found themselves subdued by such treatment. Rob chose to react by losing the weight in order to regain self-confidence, displaying the kind of resilient attitude early-on, that has taken him to success in the business world.
   
  Many of our values are driven by our voids and our pain, as well as our desire to do better. An often heard phrase among the wealthy is that it’s “not about the money”. But it was at one point in their past.
   
  Success is all contextual. Compared to when he began, Rob is incredibly successful, but there is always work to do. The more you learn about yourself, the more you will understand the journey ahead of you.
   
  Engaging with criticism can sometimes be useful. Take a step back and see if the comment has any value. Do you respect their voice? Are they trying to add value?
   
  You have to balance experience with an open-minded view of life. Life is full of surprises, and expectations can be overturned at any point. Don’t ever judge the present based on the past, as each moment is unique.
   
  Rob’s thought process is built around "Think. Decide. Act. Review”. Thoughts begin as a primal feeling, and must go through several filters that come with experience, development and understanding.
   
  Rob's rebellious nature has led to some remarkable experimentation in his business life, and has led to his “Disruptive Entrepeneur” philosophy. Many choose to emulate the successful, but for Rob, this has never been enough.
   
  The concepts of value and fair exchange are the biggest areas in which Rob has achieved success. Value is understanding what people want and giving it to them. Fair exchange is the relationship between value and price.
   
  You can love what you do, but there will always be parts of that thing that you don’t enjoy as much. For Rob, the realisation of this was important. Sometimes success and discipline are about doing the things you don’t enjoy doing, when they need to be done.
   
  The next level of mastery for Rob, is to see if he can deliver an entire speech unprepared; to truly live in the moment, and to see what comes through him. If you don’t risk everything, you risk nothing. How do you grow if you don’t try things?
   
  The greatest gift Rob has given to himself is the realisation that he can be what he wants to be. It is the ability to tell himself that he can grow if he wants to.
  BEST MOMENTS
  ‘Fire in the belly: that says to me hunger, passion, desire!’ 
 ‘Voids create values’ 
 ‘I am both equally more satisfied with who I am, and hungry to become more’ 
 ’The eye can’t see itself’ 
 ’Never wrestle with a pig’ 
 ‘Analysing yourself is the curse, and the gift, of personal development’ 
 ‘Maximum human growth is on the border of support and challenge’ 
 ‘It’s un-learning, as well as learning’

Pete openly talks about losing both of his parents, suffering periods of depression, business downturn and burn-out, and ultimately his years spent not stoking ‘Fire In the Belly’. In 2017, at 37 years of age that changed and he is now on a journey of learning, growing, accepting and inspiring others.
  
 Pete has the ability to connect with people and intuitively asks questions to reveal a person’s passion and discover how to live their mightiest life. The true power of ‘Fire In the Belly’ is the Q&amp;As - Questions and Actions!
  
 The ‘Fire In The Belly’ brand and the programme is rapidly expanding into podcasts, seminars, talks, business workshops, development course and rapid results mentoring.

      <title>E7: Fire Meets Speed! The Speed Mentor; Gavan Wall</title>
      <link>https://omny.fm/shows/fire-in-the-belly/the-speed-mentor-gavan-wall</link>
      <description>Welcome back to Fire in The Belly! In todays episode, Pete goes on a deep dive with the one and only Speed Mentor Gavan Wall! Listen in as Gavan shares lessons learned from his own entrepreneurial journey, talks us through his childhood, school years, career and what lead him to where he is today. Tune in to hear advice and insights that can help you in business and in life. Gavan Wall talks us through his transition from law to property to his new project of venture capitals as well as talking us through some of his personal struggles with the economic crash in 2007 and how he took himself from losing everything to being the success he is today.
 Q. Tell us a bit about yourself.
  I’m from Belfast, Northern Ireland with a background in law, I then went into business about 12 years ago and ever since then I have been working at trading businesses and mentoring hundreds of other business people across Northern Ireland trying to bring my blend of high energy and go-getting. I have a number of businesses employing over 130 people and the latest project is in venture capital. I am raising a ten million pound fund at the minute and we’re looking to turn that into ten billion pounds over ten years.
  Q. Did learning come easy for you?
 A. I am probably a quick learner, but I get bored very easily. I actually look back and wonder if I was afraid to pit myself against the top members of the class. Those guys were machines and they were working really hard from day one. I remember on day one we came in and we had to write an essay, and mine was the best in the class, and that was a high point of my education. Whether I thought that I couldn’t keep up with them, I loved to be able to say I was the best at doing no work but still getting the exams. I was definitely the best at that.
  
 Q. Do you think the writing was on the wall from the beginning?
 A. I was working at various things, I was full time in the civil service and ultimately I realised I was different from everybody else there. About 20% of the people there carried the other 80%, but everybody complained about hating their jobs. All these changes were coming and I was really excited and nobody else was and at that moment I wanted to leave, what they were looking to get out of like was not what I was looking to get out of life.
  
  
 Q. Whilst you were working in law  did you still continue your side hustles?
  I was up to 50 houses, what happened was in 2006, I had gone from double-digit yields to getting outbid all the time by people who had never been in property before and I could not face giving up the business side. My mistake was saying, I need to get into the chain earlier, to feed properties to these people so I bought four bits of land and I got my planning through but I made a few mistakes, signed personal guarantee and 14-day demand loans. My wife somehow ended up as a guarantor on one of them! That land lost 90% of its value and one of the local banks served me with a demand notice, so I then lost everything including my family home.
   
 Q.  What would it mean, someone saying you’ve got something you shouldn’t have?
  I don’t really know, I’ve got something about it. My wife sometimes talks about doing the lottery, and I say to her “you can’t do that, what if we won?” because then that would ruin the whole thing, somebody would be able to say we had it easy. Whenever we used to drive to school in my Dad’s car, there were only two of these cars in Northern Ireland and in one way it was lovely and in another way it was too much. I want to be able to say, everything that I have created with the support of my wife and my family has been created by us rather than come from someone else.
   
 Q. What drives you day today?
 A. The goal is to have an impact worldwide, the goal is to be the most successful entrepreneur in Northern Ireland. What is success? Success is the ability to be able to make a difference to other people. I am not money-driven, I took my first ever holiday for ten days last year. When I was a barrister I used to go on nice expensive holidays and drive a Porsche, now I drive an electric car and I am happy with that. I don’t go on flash holidays or spend lots of money, the difference is being able to make a difference, the ability to say I have helped the ecosystem in Northern Ireland. I wasn't Northern Ireland to be backed like it was in the industrial revolution. I want to help Northern Ireland get back to that, and I want to have a massive funeral. I want to have made an impact on so many people and to have changed Northern Ireland for the better.
  
 Q. Do you see yourself retiring?
 A. No, I will die in the middle of a deal! The best deal ever. I was thinking about all the things I have done since I turned 45 for the first time, definitely not retiring no way. I’ve done a lot of heavy lifting, and I will tell you my theory and it was a moment of clarity “it is all about creating value, with the power of the mind”. That's true. The lifting that you do with your mind created more value than the physical stuff you do out there in the world.
  
 Q. What do you think people's perceptions of you are?
  I know what they say about me, “He thinks he is just going to walk into the venture capital startup world?” “He just walks in and that's the way that he does stuff, he just pivots out of something else and he is just a shopkeeper”. What they don’t really know is that maybe their perception of me but that is not really what I am like. So I am listening to less personal development stuff at the moment because I am listening to stuff about venture capital and about startups because I know that I don’t know it. I may be a bit of a peacock walking it but I am trying to learn because I want to learn it. The people that are throwing the darts at me probably haven't had as much success as they think they should’ve had because they’re not prepared to do the work that I am. 
   
  
 BEST MOMENTS
 “I think from about the age of eleven or twelve I was also asking for shares in the stock market for Christmas”
 “I picked two of my three  A-Levels out of a hat”
 “Everything I’ve done I’ve done it for me”
 “My rise and success wasn’t lucked”
 “To have made such a difference, those other people say ‘I want to make a difference’”
 “It is all about creating value, with the power of the mind”
 “You can’t expect to go into something new and be really good at it”

I want to have made an impact on so many people and to have changed Northern Ireland for the better.</p> <p> </p> <p>Q. Do you see yourself retiring?</p> <p>A. No, I will die in the middle of a deal! The best deal ever. I was thinking about all the things I have done since I turned 45 for the first time, definitely not retiring no way. I’ve done a lot of heavy lifting, and I will tell you my theory and it was a moment of clarity “it is all about creating value, with the power of the mind”. That's true. The lifting that you do with your mind created more value than the physical stuff you do out there in the world.</p> <p> </p> <p>Q. What do you think people's perceptions of you are?</p> <ol> <li>I know what they say about me, “He thinks he is just going to walk into the venture capital startup world?” “He just walks in and that's the way that he does stuff, he just pivots out of something else and he is just a shopkeeper”. What they don’t really know is that maybe their perception of me but that is not really what I am like. So I am listening to less personal development stuff at the moment because I am listening to stuff about venture capital and about startups because I know that I don’t know it. I may be a bit of a peacock walking it but I am trying to learn because I want to learn it. The people that are throwing the darts at me probably haven't had as much success as they think they should’ve had because they’re not prepared to do the work that I am. </li> </ol> <p> </p> <p> </p> <p><strong>BEST MOMENTS</strong></p> <p>“I think from about the age of eleven or twelve I was also asking for shares in the stock market for Christmas”</p> <p>“I picked two of my three  A-Levels out of a hat”</p> <p>“Everything I’ve done I’ve done it for me”</p> <p>“My rise and success wasn’t lucked”</p> <p>“To have made such a difference, those other people say ‘I want to make a difference’”</p> <p>“It is all about creating value, with the power of the mind”</p> <p>“You can’t expect to go into something new and be really good at it”</p> <p><strong>ABOUT THE HOST </strong></p> <p>Welcome to the Speed Mentor Podcast.</p> <p>Do you want success and abundance in your life?!</p> <p>Do you want to hear how to achieve it?</p> <p>Then you’ve come to the right place where the world’s only Speed Mentor, Gavan Wall will mainline you with micro bite-sized chunks of inspiration fused with knowledge, built into a daily routine to help you deliver success.</p> <p>After walking away, a decade ago from his gilded life as a leading Barrister and property investor, Gavan Wall started his entrepreneurial career in suspicious circumstances as he lost everything in the property crash. </p> <p>But he refused to give up, re-building a financial fortress from scratch, until now he leads multiple successful multi-million £ companies across FMCG, Franchise, Tech, Property and Mentoring.</p> <p>He’s the Speed Mentor and serial entrepreneur, who shares with you all the breadcrumbs of success and just as importantly the failures.
