LifePilot: Be the CEO of your life with Natalie Sisson

As we near the end of January 2019, I want you to ask yourself how those New Year goals and resolutions are going? If you’re like 92% of people, you won’t have stuck to your resolutions, because you likely set vague ones or had unrealistic expectations like: “I’m going to become a celebrity game show host” or “I’m going to break a world record in gumboot throwing”. Champagne can do that to the bes...

This year, I want to help you to do something that you've been putting off for way too long, whether it's a vlog, a blog post, writing a book chapter, launching a website, going on your first run, or going out on your first date. If you want to show up and tap into your true potential is to ask yourself better questions. I came across this  Lifehack article  and it caught my attention be...

Sigrun Gudjonsdottir is one heck of a woman. She's the type of woman who turned down the role as CEO of Nissan Sweden, to follow love to Switzerland. Once there, after a lot of soul searching, she figured out how to leverage 10 years of Corporate CEO experience for several major companies, an MBA in Entrepreneurship, and a whole lot of passion, into an incredible online business mentoring women. I...

My biggest passion in life has been pursuing my potential, and also seeing potential in others and helping them to recognize it for themselves and do something about it! And hence why the idea for a podcast show called UNTAPPED leapt into my mind in late December and simply wouldn’t let me go until I did something about it. I’m so curious about how to develop more potential, how do we live up to o...

Welcome back to my podcast which has been renamed with a whole new mission "Untapped". Why untapped? Because I'm on a personal mission this year to untap into mine and your highest potential. I'm going to be doing micro experiments every week throughout the year to really look at where am I holding back and where can I tap into my potential. In this first episode of Untapped, I looked back in...

I made a pretty big decision this weekend to end my podcasting journey, without any fanfare or second guessing. It dawned on me that I have been podcasting for 7 years. Seven freaking years of putting out episodes! What started out as monthly back on May 16, 2011, turned into twice a month around 2012 and at at the end of 2013 became weekly. By 2015 I'd decided to up my game and go twice weekly, w...

What does being more productive mean to you? Being productive doesn't mean sitting and working for eight straight hours. You'll burn yourself out! There are other ways to maximize productivity. For instance, cutting out distractions and turning off email notifications. Many of us are looking for ways to live a more productive life, that's why in this episode, I'll share 17 strategies you can emplo...

Behind every successful entrepreneur is a team they delegate the work they don’t love to, so that they can focus on the things they do love. I found my first Virtual Assistant, Margaret, in February 2012. I hired her just two weeks before I headed off on my 6,500 cycling expedition down the east coast of Africa, which meant I’d be offline for over two months. At first I had concerns about if she c...

Are you getting a great night's sleep or consistently sleep deprived because you're on your smartphone or laptop too late? I'm definitely guilty of working from a laptop in bed, or checking my phone before I go to sleep, but since I've been consistently getting in the habit of turning off all devices by 7pm each night, my sleep and quality sleep has been improving a ton. An article published in Th...

Catch it here now. I'm pretty focused on what I need to do to make this happen, but I also know if you want to stick to a habit and achieve your goals you...

Well then, let me tell you that if you choose to unclutter your life you will actually feel lighter, more joyful and more personally and financially free.

Maybe it’s quitting your job to launch a new business, asking out that special person you’ve had a crush on for years, or even standing up to someone who has wronged you. You know what you need to do, and you know it will help you to grow, but you can’t quite do it. There’s a weight inside you that is stopping you from takin...

Life a little overwhelming lately? Feel like your brain is less like your friend, and more like a toddler let loose in a poorly-managed toy store? What if you could tame that toddler, and in the process train your brain to be more focussed, less stressed and more relaxed? And what if it took just ten minutes a day? I know, I know, it sounds too good to be true. Well it’s not. The secret is…(wait f...

Money. We all want more of it, but do we want it for the wrong reasons? Security, stability and the ability to get yourself of a crisis or look after your health are all great reasons to want to have sufficient funds in your bank account. Yet research has shown that once you're making around $70,000 a year, anything over and beyond that won't make you happier. Money can certainly help you reduce s...

Everyday I get bombarded with stories about the power of a morning routine. You can’t deny the research that says if you get up early and meditate then roll into focused work such as writing, painting or a creative activity, with no distractions, you’re far more likely to be a gazillion times more productive and successful. Clearly that’s an accurate stat I’ve stated there, so you should take me v...

One of the best way to have more financial freedom is to add in an extra revenue stream or two. Preferably a passive or residual income stream that you don’t have to pay constant attention to, and that pay you a nice lump sum each month once you’ve set it up. This can be real estate, investments, digital products and affiliate commissions. It can also be the world of Ecommerce if you’re prepared t...

It's actually going to happen. In my commitment to being 'fearless' as my word for the year  and in the spirit of going back to my creative roots.... I'm starting not just one, but TWO vlogs. Eeeeek. Fortunately I have set myself up to just do this by sharing an episode on how to take imperfect action . So no excuses I just have to dive in. In this episode you'll learn: Why video is such a powerfu...

Getting out of your comfort zone can be one of the best moves you ever make in life. It's just that getting out of it, is also one of the hardest. Take me for example, while I am known for being a massive action taker, I've found myself in this interesting conundrum. I kind of love my life right now and I don't feel a huge need to change much about it. Happiness is wanting what you have, so I'm ve...

Hey you. Yeah you. The perfectionist standing there, waiting until your ducks are lined up before you take real action. Can I offer you some advice? Just for today, aim for imperfect action. Don't worry if things aren't polished, poised and perfect. Aim for the Minimum Viable Product/ Project or next step. You can do it. I know you can. It's actually truly liberating when you allow yourself to do...

I am a firm believer that the universe has your back. And when you decide to align with your true purpose in life and put all your energy in, you will get that energy back in droves. Throughout your life there will be periods where you are just on fire and there will be times when stuff feels heavy.  The trick is really feeling into what lights you up, and doing more of that, even if that's just t...

Every year, I pick one word that becomes my theme for the year. This one word represents what I want to focus on. In previous years it's been freedom, growth, clarity and focus. You'd think one measly word wouldn't make much of a difference to your life, but I have to tell you....it's a game changer! Whenever you're off track, it helps you come back to focus in on what's important, what matters, a...
