The Strong Life Project Podcast

We all have goals and dreams that we want to achieve, but sometimes it can feel overwhelming and impossible. We think that we need to make massive changes or take huge leaps to get there, but that's not always the case. Instead, I want to encourage you to focus on taking small steps towards your goals. It may not seem like much at first, but over time, these small efforts will add up and make a bi...

I know from personal experience just how challenging it can be to stay strong and resilient in the face of people who push our buttons and test our limits. I have dealt with difficult individuals all through my life, as you probably have.

Now, I know this might sound like common sense, but too often, we find ourselves doing things we don't want to do. Maybe it's because we feel obligated, or we don't want to disappoint someone, or we're afraid of what might happen if we say no. But here's the thing, when we do things we don't want to do, it drains our energy and takes away from the things we actually enjoy and care about. It can al...

We've all had moments where we've put our heart and soul into something, only to feel like no one else cares. Maybe it's a project at work that you've poured countless hours into, or maybe it's a relationship where you feel like you're the only one putting in any effort. But here's the thing, we can't control other people's actions or emotions. We can only control our own. Instead of focusing on w...

Too often, we focus on the short-term cost of something without considering the long-term consequences. We think about the immediate financial outlay or time commitment, but we don't think about the bigger picture. For example, let's say you want to start your own business. The short-term cost might be the money you need to invest, the time it takes to set everything up, and the potential risk of...

Have you ever found yourself in a situation where you've done something wrong, and instead of apologizing, you make excuses? Perhaps you've even caught yourself doing this repeatedly, but still, you can't seem to stop making excuses. Well, the truth is making excuses is a defence mechanism that many people use to protect themselves from the consequences of their actions. It's a way of avoiding res...

In this episode, we delve into the importance of reputation and credibility in building a strong life. As the saying goes, "A single act can earn a reputation, but credibility is earned every day." We'll explore the impact of our actions and how they contribute to our reputation, both positive and negative. We'll also discuss how consistency in our actions over time builds credibility and trust, w...

On this episode, we're tackling a topic that I know many of you struggle with - how to say NO to entitled people. We've all encountered entitled people in our lives - those folks who believe the world owes them something and act like they're above the rules. They can be a real pain in the arse, but saying no to them can be a real challenge, especially if you're someone who hates confrontation. In...

"How do we stop doing dumb shit?" We all have moments when we make decisions that we later regret or do things we know aren't good for us. It can be frustrating and even damaging to our well-being. But the good news is there are ways to break the cycle and start making smarter choices. Firstly, we need to recognise the patterns leading to these bad decisions.

We're diving deep into the question we've all asked ourselves at one point or another: why do we do dumb shit? Whether it's procrastinating on important tasks, indulging in unhealthy habits, or making reckless decisions, we've all engaged in behaviour that we know isn't serving us in the long run. So what's going on here? Why do we engage in self-sabotage? In this episode, we explore the science b...

What is dumb shit??? We all have moments of looking back and thinking, "Why did I do that?" or "That was a stupid decision." Those are the moments where we engaged in dumb shit. Dumb shit can come in many forms. It can be a bad decision that leads to negative consequences or a behaviour we know is harmful to ourselves or others. It can even be as simple as procrastinating on a task we know we need...
