When I was younger, my mother said to me " jealousy is one of the most useless emotions, it serves no purpose " and for a long time I agreed with her.   Jealousy is such a negative emotion, it is often thought of as an emotion that is associated with envy, possessiveness, and mistrust amongst other things. We are taught from an early age that jealousy is bad and that you shouldn't be jealous.   Ho...

Many people think that self-doubt is just something that happens, that it's something that sneaks up on them. I used to think that too but then, after a lot of soul searching and some self-reflection I came to the realisation that Self-doubt is a choice, whether conscious or unconscious, it is a natural reaction to growth, it is, essentially the fear of growth.   Your brain, your consciousness wan...

Comfort zones are safe and reliable: you know exactly where the boundaries are, you feel assured and there are no challenges.  If you like your comfort zone and you don't want to grow, you don't want to learn, you don't want to change, then this podcast episode is not for you. However: if you're ready for change, then keep listening. To change something, you have to leave one comfort zone to creat...

"If you do what you've always done, then you will get what you've alway gotten", Henry Ford (the famous car maker) first said this and and Tony Robbins - the world famous self help guru continues to perpetuate it. By keeping a routine and doing the same thing everyday you can achieve your goals, I did that to lose 15kg.  Doing the same thing every day can be helpful or it can hold you back. We dis...

The words that other people say to you may have the power to inspire, to excite, to compliment, to hurt...it's exactly the same with self talk: we talk to ourselves ALL of the time and some of us may not even know it.  The question is: is your self talk positive or negative. How you talk to yourself MATTERS. It can help you to be your best, or it can tear you down.  In this episode we take a look...

Routines are important, the better your routine, the better your habits, the better your life.  One book that changed my life was The Miracle Morning by Hal Elrod. Hal spent years studying successful multi millionaires and billionaires to try to find one thing that they did that made them successful. He found 6. In this episode I speak to you about the 6 S.A.V.E.R.S that Hal teaches and how you ca...

My parents always told me "if you can read and write then you can do anything"; maybe they were trying to get me to do my homework, or maybe they truly believe that (hint: it's both).  I truly believe that if you can read and write you can do anything, for example, I went from being a waitress in a small Welsh village (which I loved), to being a music promoter and venue manager, to living in Austr...

Who and what do you surround yourself with? Who or what do you spend most time with? Who  or what do you learn from? For me, I surround myself with books, podcasts, mentors and coaches that challenge me to be and do better. They encourage and push in every way. In today's episode, I'm talking about how to cultivate your personal peer group and why your peer group must be currated. And it's not jus...
