LifePilot: Be the CEO of your life with Natalie Sisson

So this weekend I had the honor of being invited to go and speak in front of around 80 to 90 Ultimate Frisbee players who were at their first training camp trying out to be selected for the World Championships in Netherlands next year. And for those of you who don't know, I have been an Ultimate Frisbee player for the last 16 years. It's been a long held passion of mine and it was really neat to b...

Lately I’ve been going back to learning what I thought I already knew, and at the same time I’ve been embracing everything I don’t know as I throw myself into the arena of the future of work and learning. And that’s a scary place to be. The not knowing space. The relinquishing any thoughts you had about being an expert, to embrace a beginner’s mind and enjoy being a student of life. That’s at the...

Is it possible to completely change your life by simply making a decision to take responsibility for your health and purpose in life? Nathan Martin, my personal triathlon coach and friend is living proof that it is. Growing up in a family where gambling and drinking were the daily pastimes, he went down a path as a teenager that was leading him to a life of drugs, low paying work and no real futur...

Madonna has truly mastered the art of reinvention, so when a friend told me she was coming on the Graham Norton show this weekend, I stuck around to watch her segment. I couldn’t recall the last time I’d seen Madonna speak and was intrigued to see what she would deliver. Naturally, she didn’t disappoint. She walked on stage wearing an eye patch and a sexy number which had her boobs almost falling...

Instagram has long been one of my favourite social media platforms - until it came to using it for business. I had always found it a place I went to for inspiration, to keep up with my friends and peers and witness some beautiful photography. Then over time the platform became increasingly promotional and showy and less about #nofilters and #reallife and as it did, I struggled to figure out how to...

Debra Searle is a unique and inspiring individual. Debra first hit the headlines when she and her husband set out to row across the Atlantic. Unfortunately, her husband and rowing partner had to be rescued. Debra continued alone and rowed 3000 miles across the Atlantic. It should have taken them 6 weeks but, to achieve her goal, Debra ended up spending 3 ½ months at sea alone. She also lead a grou...

I believe that every single person who has skills and knowledge, when combined with a love for what they do and know, can monetise all of this and get paid to be themselves. And not just because that's exactly what I did 9 years ago when I started the Suitcase Entrepreneur blog....although that's certainly made me more bias! I had no freaking idea that I would end up building a business from my bl...

Imagine the future of work, what do you see? And more importantly how do you want to show up in it? The way in which we work and the type of work we will be doing in the next few years is already shifting right before our eyes, and I personally see more opportunity than ever. But a lot of people are scared and that's because the workplace of tomorrow is an uncertain place. We live in a rapidly cha...

If I told you that you had 90 days to create something awesome, what would you choose to do? Would you train for a triathlon, aim to renovate part of your house, finish your book manuscript or would you want to create a profitable online course? That's my challenge to you in today's episode of Untapped, I challenge you to take the next 90 days and create something that you've been putting off! As...

Are you stuck in the comfort zone? Are you getting a little bored and discontented with where you're at in life? Isn't it time you stepped out of your comfort zone? This is a question I've been asking myself a lot lately, especially since I started training for triathlons, which regularly stretch me beyond my comfort zone and push me mentally and physically. What I wasn't prepared for were all the...

I was fortunate to hear Andrew Leitch speak on an Entrepreneurs Organization meetup recently. He believes that our connection to our purpose and the energy that this connection gives us, is the fast track to tapping into our creative genius, our most connected and engaged states, and our fullest human potential. He is a regular presenter at Eden Health Retreat and is invited to present at various...

I've just recently watched Brene Brown's Netflix special called " Brené Brown: The Call to Courage " and in this program she discusses what it takes to choose courage over comfort in a culture defined by scarcity, fear, and uncertainty. And this is what we are going to talk about in this podcast: vulnerability and courage. In this episode, Osmaan and I will dive deeper into not dwelling on past st...

Given we all have 24 hours in a day, I'm constantly surprised by how many people squander that precious time and waste it on things they know they shouldn’t be doing. I see this all the time with my friends, loved ones and my peers, and do my best to share my knowledge on habits , time management and tools to help them.  Most of the time they end up resenting where their time w...

Lately, with the sheer amount of work I've put on my own plate, and take full responsibility for, I've found myself procrastinating more than I'd like to admit. Procrastination - the thing we all love to hate but can't avoid...until now! Turns out, what has always been viewed as another form of laziness or perfection (depending on which side of the coin you place yourself), actually has nothing to...

I’ve never been a big fan of over planning, of strategizing the night away, and getting lost in the detail. And I’ve always been in favour of less is more, keep it simple and being able to see your big vision on just one piece of paper. This is why I first developed the infamous ‘One Page Biz Plan’ template back in 2012 and have been using it ever since. Yes, shock horror, a lady who creates a too...

It's April 1st and it's time to raise to get serious about the next 275 days you have to make the most of in 2019. Yet you and I know, if we are to look at the whole nine months we still have to make the most of this year, we won't necessarily make the most of our time. However, if we focus on a 3 month sprint, we will definitely place a sense of positive urgency around the things that matter most...

Did you know there is one thing you can do everyday to transform stress, build resilience and train your brain to get focus and happiness in just 10 minutes a day? It's called Mindfulness and it's a powerful tool that I've personally been using with guided meditations for almost four months straight now, with profound effects. So I jumped at the chance to dive deeper into why mindfulness is transf...

What if there was a peak performance power-tool that you could train your mind to pull out whenever you needed to turn up and become the best version of yourself? When you needed to put in an effort like an Olympian, a pro athlete or a CEO? Well there is.. And it's all about tapping into the power of your secret identity and then creating and stepping into them to change not only the way your brai...

Did you start your business or a movement to make an impact? To reach millions with your message? To help hundreds, if not thousands of people? I hope so. It’s those big hairy and ambitious goals we set for ourselves that often propels us into starting something that matters in the first place. But the thing that often stops us from fulfilling our dreams is never getting the visibility, credibilit...

Do you have "voices" in your head criticizing you, telling you you're not good enough, not smart enough? These damn inner critics, as they're called, are extremely talented at plaguing us everyday. Personally, mine are ruthless, mean and demand a lot of me. I've always battled with their judgements, until recently. Over the weekend, I joined an amazing retreat led by Enspiral, and one particular o...
