https://www.meenasamara.com/AYH2 In this special episode, Summer swaps roles with her mother Meena Samara who interviews her about the podcast's global success. Their conversation reveals Summer's personal journey, wisdom and the philosophy behind creating content that's reached the top 2.5% of podcasts globally! Through talking about fear, purpose, and healing, Summer shares her thoughts on how inner work creates outer success and why going to ‘war with yourself’ instead of the world leads to true transformation. KEY TAKEAWAYS Courage isn't about fearlessness but taking action despite fear. Summer started Inner Wealth at just 18, acknowledging it was scary to speak on profound topics so young, but that self-belief and purpose carried her through potential criticism. Success requires patience and dedication. What appears as overnight success for Summer, actually involved an entire year of podcasting before gaining traction and ten years of personal development to build the wisdom shared in each episode. Adversity should be reframed as working in your favour. When challenges arise, adopting the perspective that this is helping me somehow creates growth. Healing requires self accountability. Summer talks about why true change comes from stopping the blame of external circumstances and recognising that you must ‘go to war with yourself’ instead of with the world. Balance may not be necessary for passion driven work. Summer admits she doesn't balance being 20 with being a role model well, she's immersed in her work. Divine connection transforms perspective, connecting to a higher power, whether through religion, nature, or other personally meaningful practices, changes how we experience life's challenges. Authenticity creates unique value and the fastest path to success is being genuinely yourself, rather than trying to be the next Oprah. Service to others is the ultimate fulfilment. Serving others is both the most human and spiritual act. BEST MOMENTS "People think courage is not being fearful, but I disagree, courage is doing something despite being fearful. It's facing it head on." "Go to war with yourself and connect with divine and I can promise you your life will change." "When anything goes wrong in my life now, the immediate thought before finding a solution is 'this is helping me in some way.'" "There's nothing that I have been through that hasn't added to me in some way, and that's not to say trauma makes you an amazing person. No, you make the choice to not let trauma make you a not nice person "It's so freeing when you realise that you can just be you, authentically you and it's enough and it's special." CHECK OUT THIS EPISODE! https://omny.fm/shows/inner-wealth/039-iwe HOST BIO I am Summer. A spiritual being having human experiences.

Lyn welcomes self-love coach Nadja Hagen to discuss the challenges of being a people pleaser and the importance of setting healthy boundaries. Nadja shares her personal journey from being a people pleaser to learning how to establish firm but flexible boundaries that create reciprocal happier balanced relationships.  KEY TAKEAWAYS People pleasing involves accommodating others at the expense of one's own well-being, leading to resentment and unhealthy/ unfulfilling relationships. It's important to recognise that being nice is different from people pleasing. Healthy boundaries are balanced and flexible, allowing for both rigidity and adaptability depending on the situation. It's essential to communicate boundaries in a kind and honest manner to create mutual respect. Before addressing unacceptable behaviours in relationships, it's crucial to reflect on what is no longer acceptable and articulate desired wants/ outcomes clearly. This self-awareness communicates our boundaries more effectively. If verbal communication feels daunting, writing a letter can be an alternative way to express boundaries. This method allows for a calmer exchange and provides a record of the conversation. It's important to acknowledge when a relationship is harmful, even if it involves family. You may have to consider keeping someone at arms length or letting go of them completely. It is possible to love someone from a distance whilst prioritising one's own emotional & mental health. BEST MOMENTS "People-pleasing is always saying yes, and accommodating other people at the expense of our own well-being." "When we say yes, when we truly want to say no, then over time resentment builds up."  "We can learn to set healthy boundaries. We can learn to say no when it's right for us." "You do not have a relationship with 'potential'. You have a relationship with another human being."

To explore how to get unstuck on your mission, put your purpose into practice and convert your ideas into impact book a discovery call with David here https://calendly.com/david-peoplewithpurpose/30min    KEY TAKEAWAYS Understanding what you are doing and why gets you out of bed in the morning and keeps you going when things get tough. Make sure your purpose is meaningful to you, understand your reasons, why you are doing what you are doing. Your reason to be, (your ikigai) is important. David explains the steps you need to take to identify it. Putting your energy into something that is outside of yourself helps you to cope with your demons.  Find the things you are good at and get better at them. It is important to make sure that you get properly rewarded for what you do. Don´t shortchange yourself. Find rituals that give you energy e.g. journaling or going for a daily walk. Use the right language when speaking to yourself (your inner voice) and with others. Language is really powerful.  Listen to the way people speak and the kind of words they use. This helps you to build strong connections with others. Looking to the future is essential if you want to live with purpose.   BEST MOMENTS “People with purpose make a difference and I definitely believe that is true.” “If you make it meaningful, then your time on this wonderful planet will not be wasted. .” “You just need to believe in something and believe that it's important enough to take action on it and to never give up.” “Because you get to choose, choose to do the things that you love.” “If you base your value on what other people think, then you might be hampering your progress.” “The words that you choose can make the world a better place.” “Always remember that if you want to land on your feet, you first need to jump.”   EPISODE RESOURCES Lee - https://www.imdb.com/title/tt5112584 Ikigai book collection - https://www.amazon.co.uk/Kaizen-Ikigai-Journey-Books-Collection/dp/9124352152 ABOUT THE HOST David Roberts is a highly regarded CEO, mentor, and investor with 30 years of experience across multiple sectors.

In this episode, Jo & Vicky are joined by the amazing business strategist Lisa Johnson, to talk about passive income. Lisa helps businesses make much extra income using passive and semi-passive income streams, such as courses, the membership model, and more. Lisa has extensive experience in all aspects of marketing. Over the past few years, Lisa´s own business has generated a turnover of  £20 million.   KEY TAKEAWAYS People buy from people they have something in common with. Be authentic and share who you are. Most markets are saturated or nearly saturated, so to stand out you need to go beyond your primary message of what you do and how you can help customers. You need a secondary message. Your secondary message does not have to relate directly to your business, it could be sharing what you are doing about something you care about e.g. the environment. Don´t fear being canceled, bullied, or not liked. It´s not pleasant, but it happens to everyone and will not stop you from achieving what you want. You must build an email list rather than relying 100% on 3rd party platforms e.g. Instagram. Don´t feel you have to be perfect. Be yourself, flaws, and all. Ignore the gurus, you can be extraordinarily successful without having to be unethical. It doesn´t matter if 95% of people don´t agree with you or like you. The 5% who do will buy from you, which is more than enough. People buy courses that contain information they can get for free because they know they won´t do things unless someone is supporting them in doing it.   BEST MOMENTS “People buy from people that they like.” “The only way to live is to show up as if you have already been cancelled.” “You can be professional and make mistakes.” “The more value you give, the more likely people are going to want your support and work with you.”   EPISODE RESOURCES https://www.instagram.com/lisajohnsonstrategist/p/C3hz2Uks24F https://thatstrategyco.com SOCIALS AND IMPORTANT LINKS https://www.tiktok.com/@letstalkdogbusiness https://www.youtube.com/@LetsTalkDogBusiness Website www.caninebusinessacademy.com Community Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/caninebusinessacademycommunity/ ABOUT THE HOSTS Meet Jo and Vicky!

On this episode Kat is joined by Max Fortis, Sales Director at Clarendon Speciality Fasteners, who shares the differences in family dynamics, especially in Italy where your living room is the local café, and why social connections are so important for our wellbeing. KEY TAKEAWAYS I see less connection here in the UK. In Italy, everyone's door is open, they don't have to make appointments to see their family members they just pop in. In the UK, people live more insular lives and it's easy to get trapped in your own world. I even find myself being much less sociable in the UK than I am in Italy. In Milan all my colleagues would take lunch together as well as taking 2-3 coffee breaks during the day. It was a cultural shock when working in the UK and I was offered a coffee and someone just went to the coffee machine and brought it back to my desk and left it there. Or everyone had lunch at their desks rather than going out and making an effort to invite me for a beer after work. Work is completely separate from their private lives, which sometimes is good, but you can easily feel more alone. During covid, I started doing a lot more work myself as I had got some bad habits with regards to separating work and private live, I was always available and working almost 24/7. I was also locked into social media because I couldn't go back to Italy as often as I wanted. After a while I realised that I needed to set barriers and develop better habits to support myself and my family. I turned things around by spending more time with my family, doing more active listening, having more positive habits with my phone like putting it in a box when I get home from work and not looking at it until later in the morning. Me and my wife make time in the morning to have coffee or tea together before the kids wake up and in the evening we don't just put the TV on, we put music on and have conversations. I read a lot more than I have in the past and all this fills up my energy tank and I'm actually doing more now than I was before. BEST MOMENTS “People need to be more spontaneous, let people in, pick up the phone and call people rather than just looking at what they're doing on social media.” “Personal space is a really strong barrier in the UK than in other countries. I've worked all over the world; in Chile you become part of your colleagues' families very quickly, the parents of my friends insisted I call then uncle and aunty.” “A habit is something you do without realising that you're doing it, making time for my friends, family, my daughter's friends is something that I do without thinking about.” “Making yourself indispensable at work often isn't the right thing for you and for your family, the last 2.5 years has been a rollercoaster journey, but I'm definitely happier now.” ABOUT THE GUEST Max Fortis is sales director at Clarendon Speciality Fasteners where he helps clients to identify the best solutions for their fastening needs and to ensure that engineers chose cost-effective solutions. LinkedIn ABOUT THE HOST Kat started her career as a teacher, before moving into Tech where she worked in different executive roles within teaching and consulting working across the globe, both in the public and private sector. Despite appearing 'successful' on the outside, she paid a heavy ‘life' price. In 2016, her whole world collapsed. The reason? The compound effect of years of unhealthy and toxic habits that destroyed her health, relationship and career. She suffered a severe breakdown and lost everything. In the middle of this she got headhunted for her first CEO role. She rebuilt herself by changing just one small habit, and built a series of positive habits which has transformed her professional and personal performance, resulting in becoming the healthiest and happiest version of herself.  She is a positive habits international keynote speaker and teacher, giving talks and delivering high impact programmes to organisations across the globe.  LinkedIn Instagram

On this episode of the World Game-Changers podcast, Paul begins a new, longer series talking to John Chappelear - a first time guest - about the things he didn't know, that he now knows and thinks the world should know. KEY TAKEAWAYS I didn't realise that an emotional connection was key to leadership, personal relationships, I kept everything on an intellectual level. There's a value to including emotion in everyday life, conversation and every single situation that you encounter. So many business owners tell me they need their people to be more engaged. What's the difference between a couple and a couple that's engaged? Emotion. The couple that's engaged has a tremendous amount of emotional connection between the two of them and you don't have to talk them into doing anything. If you can create that kind of engagement between yourself and your employees/staff/family, the connection will be so much deeper. I didn't realise or know the importance of practice to permanence, I thought I was already born to this ‘smarter, quicker, better than' mindset because everything came easy. I assumed I was really smart so people would want to care about me. No, they didn't! It was only when I started to care about them that they started caring about me. Acceptance helps defuse so many situations. I didn't say “I agree with you”, I said “I accept your position”. It's about the willingness to be empathetic rather than taking your anger and resentment from work and dump it on your family and vice versa. That all dissipates when you are willing to be interested in what's going on in other people's lives/heads/hearts. BEST MOMENTS ‘People want to go where they feel appreciated and cared about. It really is that frighteningly simple'. ‘Be willing to try something that you're uncomfortable with'. ‘Set an intention to be more engaged with the people around you'. ‘Get your path and then follow it'.

This week Karen is talking to Anne Onwusowulu, an alumni of Karen's Artisan Perfume Mastermind course. Anne is the founder of fragrance company House of Purple Rose and, along with her husband John, runs a second company, the Skin and Hair Manufacturing Hub. However, both of Anne's companies, and all the services they offer, were born out of personal tragedy or challenges she faced on her entrepreneurial journey. In this interview with Karen, Anne inspires as she details the way in which she took every challenge and turned it into an opportunity.   KEY TAKEAWAYS When Anne moved into her new house she found that the open plan nature of it led the smells of food to drift all through the house. She wanted to overcome this problem and started to research candles and diffusers; what she found, however, led her to set up her company, House of the Purple Rose.  When Anne tragically lost her mother, the stress she experienced from this led her to have problems with her skin. Determined to do something about it she went from trying a multitude of different skin care products to launching her own range.  When Anne started House of the Purple Rose she found it impossible to source suppliers that would give her small quantities of materials, as most demanded orders in the thousands.

Liam and special guest, Hannah, discuss the key strategies for securing joint venture finance in the property business. Liam shares his experience of raising over £9 million in joint venture funding and emphasises the importance of not letting the fear or lack of money hinder great buying decisions. They also look into the significance of building relationships with investors, offering various investment products, and maintaining investor trust through communication and professionalism.  KEY TAKEAWAYS Building a property business and doing deals does not necessarily require using your own money. Investors want to feel comfortable with who they invest in and look for someone they know, like, and trust. Networking is crucial to finding investors, whether it's through property networking events, social clubs, or social media. Keeping investors up to date and building relationships can lead to repeat investments and scaling opportunities. To find your first investor, set up professionally, get trained, and inform everyone in your network about your property investment endeavors. BEST MOMENTS "People believe that in order to build a property business and do deals, they need their own money."  "You need to make a decision that you want a better life. You need to then get training, help and support and set yourself up."  "There are people in your network now people that are tuning in. They have got investors in their phone book."  "I'm a property investor. I'm a wealth creator. And I work with investors and we invest into safe, sound, secure investments."  VALUABLE RESOURCES The Dealmaker Podcast - https://omny.fm/shows/the-deal-maker-by-liam-ryan Assets For Life - https://assetsforlife.co.uk    Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/liamjryanwealth/ Facebook Page - https://www.facebook.com/LiamJRyan.AFL Facebook Personal - https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100010124928017 HOST BIO You're listening to The Deal Maker podcast with Property Expert, Property Multi Millionaire and Joint World Record Holder Liam J.

In this episode, which is the 2nd in Danny Hurst´s Unusual Histories The Bridges of London Series, he looks at the incredibly long and surprising history of London Bridge. The bridge has been disappointing tourists for decades who are expecting to see the far more aesthetically pleasing Tower Bridge.  The history of London Bridge is the history of London itself, so you don´t want to miss this episode. Danny shares who built the first version, and why it was left to become a ruin, torn down, hit by a boat, burned down several times and was the site of a terrorist attack. He also looks at the origins of the famous children´s song and a nursery rhyme, while busting several London Bridge-related myths. KEY TAKEAWAYS The first bridges in the area were built in the bronze age. The Romans built the first proper London Bridge. That original bridge along with the city of Londinium became a ruin when the Romans left. The centre of the bridge was once the starting point for a pilgrimage. The great water wheels on the bridge that were used by firefighters failed during The Great Fire of London. Shooting the rapids that ran under an older version of the bridge was a popular sport. Severed heads were displayed on the bridge. The way the old bridge impacted the flow of water is why the Thames sometimes froze. The current bridge was opened on 17th March 1973. BEST MOMENTS ‘People come from all over the world to be disappointed by it. ´ ‘The 1970s was not the golden age of British architecture, or indeed the golden age of anything in Britain.' ‘The number of the bridge supports created dangerous rapids between the piers at high tide.' HOST BIO Historian, performer, and mentor Danny Hurst has been engaging audiences for many years, whether as a lecturer, stand-up comic or intervention teacher with young offenders and excluded secondary students. Having worked with some of the most difficult people in the UK, he is a natural storyteller and entertainer, whilst purveying the most fascinating information that you didn't know you didn't know. A writer and host of pub quizzes across London, he has travelled extensively and speaks several languages. He has been a consultant for exhibitions at the Imperial War Museum and Natural History Museum in London as well as presenting accelerated learning seminars across the UK. With a wide range of knowledge ranging from motor mechanics to opera to breeding carnivorous plants, he believes learning is the most effective when it's fun. Uniquely delivered, this is history without the boring bits, told the way only Danny Hurst can. CONTACT AND SOCIALS https://instagram.com/dannyjhurstfacebook.com/danny.hurst.9638 https://twitter.com/dannyhurst  https://www.linkedin.com/in/danny-hurst-19574720 Podcast Description "History is a nightmare from which I am trying to awake." James Joyce. That was me at school as well. Ironically, I ended up becoming a historian. The Unusual Histories podcast is all about the history you don't learn at school, nor indeed anywhere else. Discover things that you didn't know that you didn't know, fascinating historical luminaries and their vices and addictions, and the other numerous sides of every story. Danny continues his Unusual Histories podcast with the Bridge Series, remaining in London travelling east to west to look at the bridges which span the Thames. He looks at their design, construction and history, along with the history of the areas in which they're located on both sides of the river. This series kicks off with an exclusive interview with Dirk Bennett of the City Bridge Foundation, the organisation which looks after London's bridges. Tower Bridge is marking its 130th anniversary this month and Dirk talks to Danny about the history of the bridge as well as the new exhibition that is opening for it.

BEST MOMENTS "People want to hear what you really sound like. You wouldn't go in and say, 'Hi, in 15 minutes, I'm going to tell you what this is.' And so and so, so and so, you know, like that kind of DJ voice." "It's a really interesting space that we kind of, as the gatekeepers have fallen away, like radio and papers and things like that, and the clubs have become more sterile and far removed and elites and all the players are media trained. There's this space in the middle where you can reflect how people feel." "We try and tap into what it feels like to be a Leeds fan on that day in that week. And just completely lean into that. It's all about how it feels. And that's something that the clubs can't do themselves." "Just put the work in to become part of that space.

You just have to start working on it. And I recommend people make one, one change at a time."  "The real key with the goal is the motivation to start taking action. And then when you take action, even if you're failing or you're not doing it, what, what you wanted to happen, you're still moving forward."  "Instead, focus on the fact that that goal, I know, right? That goal drove you to make those changes and now you have tools." "When you fail, that's teaching you something, it's teaching you what not to do next. And that's equally, equally valuable."

In this episode, Clare is in conversation with Grant, who is an international secondary school teacher. He is a serial mover from the UK who got his masters in Poland. He left the UK in 2007 and has lived in France, Saudi Arabia, China and now lives in Malaysia. Grant comes from Newcastle in the north of England. After London University and the now defunct Webber Douglas drama school, he spent the first ten years of his career as a jobbing actor. Grant then took himself off to film school and did a masters at the Polish National Film School in Lodz. He always wanted to do something with film studies, so after an introduction to international school teaching in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, he found a job teaching film studies at a school in Chengdu in western China. He has been teaching English and film studies in China and more recently in Malaysia for the last 15 years. KEY TAKEAWAYS International schools provide students with an extraordinary outlook on life. Malaysia´s national identity is being a melting pot, which means that outsiders are quickly embraced. Malaysia has strong religious groups, but people are still strongly integrated with each other. Grant lived in different parts of China and enjoyed some places more than others. He talks about the pros and cons of each area. Grant travelled to some remote places in China, which is now far more difficult, and had some interesting, in some cases, dangerous experiences. He shares a few in the episode. Bear in mind that the immigration rules change regularly. This is especially the case in Malaysia. When moving abroad you have to be realistic about your chances of being able to stay there when you are older and can no longer work or fall sick. Learning a bit of the language gets you a long way. Spending most of your free time with ex-pats is a bit of a cul de sac. It is easy to completely miss out on enjoying the local culture. BEST MOMENTS ‘People have their gripes and grumbles in Malaysia, but … people are quite happy to be here. ´ ‘They do a bilingual international diploma.' ‘You weren´t really sure what you had got yourself into.' ABOUT THE HOST – CLARE KAY Clare has moved countries many times throughout her life, from China to Taiwan, Nigeria, Zambia, and the USA. She has also travelled the world for various businesses and now wishes to impart her advice to others to save them time, money, and energy.  Clare follows three principles central to her endeavours. First, she looks outward internationally, working with people overseas or of different nationalities. Second, she is obsessed with communication, having learned French, German and Mandarin Chinese. She also teaches English and works as an editor for others' work. Clare is passionate about making a difference through her coaching in the world of personal development.  CONTACT METHOD www.kayproofreading.com  www.linkedin.com/in/clarekay   https://www.facebook.com/KayProofreading Podcast Description When you move for a new job, to live with someone after a long-distance relationship or to explore the benefits of a new lifestyle, moving countries occurs as an opportunity, but it still might be a bumpy ride. Moving Countries 101 presents a paradox of moving to a new destination, but it being all about the journey: the ongoing experience of having moved countries.  Clare and her guests share the human stories of an ancient undertaking in modern times. Moving countries prompts change, and change provokes being unsettled emotionally, physically, mentally, and spiritually. On all these fronts, moving countries promotes observation, opportunity, and discovery.

In this episode, Jo & Vicky are joined by Andrew Hale, a human behaviourist who switched to specialising in the behaviour of other animals, in particular dogs. He, Jo & Vicky discuss, in-depth, how to take care of your wellbeing while working in the dog industry. Andrew explains why the damaging behaviour patterns he sees in those who work in the industry develop and what to do about them. This episode is packed with practical advice you can use to build your self-esteem, avoid burnout, ensure that you get to do the work you love and truly help your clients. KEY TAKEAWAYS We need to consider the well-being of ourselves, as well as that of our clients. Compassion is powerful, it enables you to care for and help others even those with which you do not agree. Self-compassion is the most powerful. Compassion fatigue is an issue. Andrew explains how to tackle it. Emotional health is like physical health you need to work at it. Be yourself and confident in your abilities. You don´t need to spend an hour convincing a client you know what you are doing. Don´t dismiss feelings borne out of trauma. Instead, learn to change your relationship with that trauma. Stop letting guilt chain you to the past. Celebrate your wins. Find your purpose and be yourself. Some things will work others won´t, that´s OK, accept that fact. If things are not working out for a client, find out why and guide the client through it. BEST MOMENTS ‘People talk about finding ways to believe in yourself. Actually, I think the first thing is to find ways to be yourself, ´ ‘Burnout, compassion, fatigue, and imposter syndrome, they're all kind of connected.' ‘The more our purpose is about our mission, the better.' ‘You cannot be empathetic and compassionate to others. If you're not compassionate, with good boundaries yourself.'   EPISODE RESOURCES https://dogcc.org Socials - @DogCentredCare https://caninearthritis.co.uk/ SOCIALS AND IMPORTANT LINKS https://www.tiktok.com/@letstalkdogbusiness https://www.youtube.com/@LetsTalkDogBusiness Website www.caninebusinessacademy.com Community Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/caninebusinessacademycommunity/ ABOUT THE HOSTS Meet Jo and Vicky!

Join Rob in another conversation with members of his sales team, where they discuss valuable insights, practical advice and the art of selling. They cover a wide range of topics, from overcoming objections to the significance of having a strong belief in what you're selling. This episode is a must-listen for anyone who wants to improve their sales skills and take their game to the next level. KEY TAKEAWAYS Rejection in sales is never personal; it's important to remember that the person is busy, has their own life, and may not be ready to buy. To be a successful salesperson, you must take responsibility for every sale and learn from objections you couldn't overcome. Asking good questions and listening to the client is crucial in identifying their needs, values, and drivers, which will help you tailor your pitch. Telesales requires a high volume of calls and the ability to quickly disqualify leads that are not a good fit to focus on potential buyers. Believing in the product or service you're selling is essential; if you don't believe in it, you won't be able to sell it effectively. Sharing relatable stories and case studies can help overcome objections and demonstrate the value of your offering.   BEST MOMENTS  "People don't care what you know till they know that you care." "Every sale is in your control. Every sale is your fault. If they bought it, it was your fault. You did a good job. If they didn't buy it, it's your fault." "I believe I am somewhat unethical or immoral if someone says to me they're broke and I don't try everything I can to educate them and ultimately that will mean selling them my courses." "Facts tell, but stories sell."   VALUABLE RESOURCES https://robmoore.com/ bit.ly/Robsupporter   https://robmoore.com/podbooks rob.team ABOUT THE HOST Rob Moore is an author of 9 business books, 5 UK bestsellers, holds 3 world records for public speaking, entrepreneur, property investor, and property educator.

Educate buyers on industry shifts, company founding story, and how your solution solves their problems to build a strong connection. Associate your product with the buyer's pain points to make them realize the value of your solution. Take the lead in the sales process; guide the buyer and be their trusted advisor to help them understand how your product can solve their problems. Calculate the financial impact of the buyer's problems to demonstrate the ROI of your solution and make pricing discussions easier. Understand your ideal customer profile (ICP) and ask process-based questions to uncover their challenges and pain points. Avoid the curse of knowledge; ask about the buyer's problems even if you already know the answer to help them realize the severity of their situation. Focus on the tangible ROI components, such as time, money, and people involved, to create a compelling case for your solution. BEST MOMENTS  "People don't take action from, 'I want to check this out.' They take action from pain." "If you can tell that founding story and talk about, let me tell you about this guy, Steve, and he was really frustrated that he couldn't do this or that... If you tell that story, obviously a little bit with a little more beef than what I said, but that now connects the buyer to a person, as opposed to connecting them to a brand." "Once I get discovery really good, and I kind of connect the dots on each of those pains to the way it gets solved with my tool, then I don't really have to do a lot else extra, and it's amazing how kind of easy, simple that associate that demo process comes to be." "Discovery is as much for your buyer as it is for you. And so if we skip that piece, then they're never going to realize how bad things are." "The devil's in the details and that's what really moves the needle is when you know those fine aspects."

This episode explores the importance of understanding and meeting the needs of others in conversations. Lee discusses the concept of the three H's - being heard, helped, or hugged - and how individuals typically seek one of these in interactions. Drawing inspiration from Charles Dewick's book, "Super Communicators," Lee emphasises the significance of recognising what the speaker wants from a conversation to enhance connection. The episode concludes with a reminder to prioritise connection over mere technicalities in conversations. KEY TAKEAWAYS Three H's: The concept of "heard, helped, and hugged" can help tailor interactions to build more connection with others. Understanding Identities: Showing different aspects of one's identity can influence the outcome of conversations and help in connecting with others. Connection is Key: The most important aspect of conversations is how well one can connect with the other person, understanding their needs, and turning up in a way to provide that. Vulnerability: Being more vulnerable and sharing more of oneself can lead to better connections and understanding in conversations. Continuous Learning: Taking time to get to know people and understand their identities can enhance communication and connection in interactions. BEST MOMENTS "People, when they are in an interaction or a conversation with somebody, they typically want one of three things. They want to be heard, they want to be helped, or they want to be hooked."  "So if you as a speaker, if the person that's speaking wants to be heard, then you need the listener to actively listen and not interject."  "But dependent upon the conversation that I'm in, I show different parts of my identity."  "So how can you really connect with somebody if you only see one identity? But more importantly, how can you connect with people if you only share one identity?"  "The most important thing in your conversations is how well you can connect to the other person."  HOST BIO You can contact Lee Houghton on 07813342194 Lee@leehoughton.com https://www.linkedin.com/in/lhoughton/ For the last 15 years, I have been a multi-sector internal or external business improvement consultant, building the improved capability of individuals, teams and businesses.

Try Riverside free now: https://creators.riverside.fm/PodcastersPodcast & Use code: Podcast15 for an exclusive 15% off. Ash and Kane debunk common myths and misconceptions about podcasting. They discuss the importance of niching down, the ease of creating podcast content compared to other platforms, and the benefits of podcasting despite its discoverability challenges. KEY TAKEAWAYS You don't need to be an authority to start a podcast; interviewing experts can provide valuable content for your audience. Podcasting for business is not oversaturated; niching down and providing quality content can help you stand out in your space. Investing in good equipment and editing is important, but you don't need fancy gear to get started. Having a niche or topic of focus is crucial for attracting and retaining listeners, unless you have a large existing audience or network. While high-quality content is essential, poor audio quality can deter listeners from engaging with your podcast. Podcasting is one of the easiest forms of content to create and repurpose across multiple platforms. Podcasts have a discoverability problem, but this can be overcome through good SEO and leveraging algorithms on other platforms. Editing your podcast is necessary to ensure a polished and professional final product. BEST MOMENTS "People don't know who you are and they don't care. They will come for the knowledge and they'll stay for your personality." "You can only turn long form into short form, you can't turn short form into long form." "Once you've got that person in your ecosystem, they keep coming back, which is great." "Your output needs to be very, very good. Good trailers, good intros, good outros, good promo clips, good clips for your guests to share." "Please edit your podcast. You don't need to go over the top and take out every um, uh, and et cetera, but you do need to make it listenable and you do need to make it sound nice."

This episode delves into the crucial skill of persuasion and its significance in various aspects of life, particularly in social work and legal settings. Michael emphasises the importance of building trust with clients by demonstrating competence and genuine care. He highlights the power of listening, valuing others, and showing warmth and enthusiasm to establish meaningful connections.  KEY TAKEAWAYS Building Trust: Before trying to persuade others, it is crucial to develop a relationship based on trust. This involves demonstrating competence and genuine care. Active Listening: Taking the time to listen to others, value their experiences, and empathize consistently is essential in building trust and understanding. Show Warmth and Enthusiasm: Displaying genuine warmth, enthusiasm, and interest towards others can help build positive relationships and influence them effectively. Avoid Criticism: Instead of arguing or criticising, find common ground with others and provide reasons for them to consider your suggestions without making them feel wrong or judged. Self-Criticism and Learning: Acknowledging mistakes openly, being self-critical, and showing a willingness to learn from errors can positively influence others' perceptions of your character and credibility. BEST MOMENTS "People don't care how much you know until they know how much you care."  "Your time is your most valuable asset or resource, so taking the time to listen to another is an indication of how much you value them."  "Instead of arguing, blaming or criticising anyone, if you want to stand a chance of positively influencing them... find things you agree on with them."  "Your ability to listen clearly to the questions is vital because if you don't pay attention to the questions, you won't be able to satisfactorily answer them." "Having a great attitude throughout your time in the witness box and whilst in court and outside of it is key to how you present in a positive manner at court."  VALUABLE RESOURCES familycourtcoaching@gmail.com Instagram: michael240656 HOST BIO Michael Watson is a qualified social worker and author with over thirty years of experience working with children and families.

Danielle spoke with Simon Dixon, co-founder of DixonBaxi, which is a global agency that's worked with clients like AC Milan, Warner brothers, Google and Samsung to name a few.KEY TAKEAWAYSSimon spoke about how and why he started DixonBaxi, what brand is and what is important to him as a business owner.Danielle and Simon discussed DixonBaxi's Essentials book, the practical thinking that drives them. How they run the company on principles and an ethos rather than technologies or what people say they should do and how diversity is so important for DixonBaxi.How the business survived Covid was a big talking point and Simon's view on remote working. People will still want to interact in some way, but there's now space for people to have time to themselves and privacy.Simon and Danielle discussed how to take your first steps into the industry and the attitude you need to succeed. Simon feels there is tension between education and the industry, where education is teaching people great creativity, but also there is a perception that everybody should have everything and should have it easily.BEST MOMENTS‘People get a little caught up or confused between identity and the design aspect of branding and branding conceptually, in terms of what it means as a whole. Basic branding is people's relationship with the company, the benefits of the service or the product or the business's relationship with them'.‘When we started the agency, we wanted to go back to something simpler, a bit more selfish and a bit more kind of refined how we wanted to create, because it was a kind of pivotal stage of our career and it obviously was something new, so we could build it in a different way'.‘You have to literally invest in training people, because if they haven't had the ability to go to St Martin's and you have to train those basic skills to get them into the industry, you might have to get visas and bring them from different countries and help them get into the industry'.‘The eternal thing is doing work that makes us excited.

In this episode, which is number 14 of Danny Hurst´s London Monopoly board history series, he takes a look at Vine Street. It is one of the law-and-order squares, so it is associated with some really strange goings-on, including a 1791 case that involved auto-erotic asphyxiation, and a haunted police station. The street also has an odd connection with one of The Pogues' songs and The Marquis of Queensbury. KEY TAKEAWAYS It is the only square on the London Monopoly Board that does not have a pub. Crime was so high here that one of the passageways to Regent Street had to be gated off. The Police station in the street was closed but had to reopen because of the crime rate. It is now demolished. The adjacent Free Parking square is a reminder that surprisingly there are still quite a lot of free parking places available in Central London. BEST MOMENTS ‘People on the Monopoly pub crawl have to drink around the corner on Swallow Street now. ´ ‘Vine Street is the most expensive of the orange cards on the London Monopoly board.' ‘The adjacent Free Parking Square is enough to make most people snort derisively.'   EPISODE RESOURCES Shop for all official versions of Monopoly here - https://www.amazon.co.uk/stores/page/785DC233-0A69-4DF8-98E9-4F50CC50A59E HOST BIO Historian, performer, and mentor Danny Hurst has been engaging audiences for many years, whether as a lecturer, stand-up comic or intervention teacher with young offenders and excluded secondary students.

James Joyce. That was me at school as well. Ironically, I ended up becoming a historian. The Unusual Histories podcast is all about the history you don't learn at school, nor indeed anywhere else. Discover things that you didn't know that you didn't know, fascinating historical luminaries and their vices and addictions, and the other numerous sides of every story. We start with the Monopoly Series, in which we explore how the game came to be, the real-life connection between the cheapest and most expensive properties, the history of each location, how proportionate the values were then and are today, what the hell a "community chest" is and whether free parking really does exist anywhere in London.  If you love history; or indeed if you hate history, this is the podcast for you…

In this episode, Clare is joined by Dominic George who is a travel management consultant who runs Global Connect Solutions. He and Clare met when the airline she had booked to fly her and her family back from Crete, went bankrupt.   Dominic explains how a travel management consultant uses their knowledge and connections to solve any travel problems their clients experience and do so quickly. Far faster than if they were travelling independently or using a travel agency. They also provide this service for people who are moving country, helping them to bring their dreams to fruition.   KEY TAKEAWAYS   A travel agent is an intermediary, whereas a travel management consultant books things independently. If things go wrong, they take personal responsibility for sorting everything out and do so on a one-to-one basis. Contracts and negotiations play a big role in how smoothly the customer journey goes. Travel management consultants use their connections and knowledge to solve problems far faster than is the norm. Dominic´s firms also smooth the way for pets who travel and personal belongings. Sometimes when you travel in a premium cabin you get a bigger baggage allowance and save money by doing so. If you are planning a complicated trip or want to work somewhere for a few months a travel management consultant will know how best to do it. Hiring a travel management consultant does not mean you lose control and cannot arrange some aspects of your journey yourself.       BEST MOMENTS ‘People probably underestimate the value of a travel management consultant over a travel agent. ´ ‘It´s an entirely customisable service that we operate.' ‘At the end of the day I am here to make your life easier.'     ABOUT THE HOST – CLARE KAY   Clare has moved countries many times throughout her life, from China to Taiwan, Nigeria, Zambia, and the USA. She has also travelled the world for various businesses and now wishes to impart her advice to others to save them time, money, and energy.    Clare follows three principles central to her endeavours. First, she looks outward internationally, working with people overseas or of different nationalities. Second, she is obsessed with communication, having learned French, German and Mandarin Chinese. She also teaches English and works as an editor for others' work. Clare is passionate about making a difference through her coaching in the world of personal development.     CONTACT METHOD   www.kayproofreading.com  www.linkedin.com/in/clarekay   https://www.facebook.com/KayProofreading   Podcast Description   When you move for a new job, to live with someone after a long-distance relationship or to explore the benefits of a new lifestyle, moving countries occurs as an opportunity, but it still might be a bumpy ride. Moving Countries 101 presents a paradox of moving to a new destination, but it being all about the journey: the ongoing experience of having moved countries.     Clare and her guests share the human stories of an ancient undertaking in modern times. Moving countries prompts change, and change provokes being unsettled emotionally, physically, mentally, and spiritually. On all these fronts, moving countries promotes observation, opportunity, and discovery.

In this episode, Lou addresses the growing interest in running and the desire to simultaneously lose fat, build muscle, and become stronger. She shares her personal experience of feeling fit, strong, and healthy while also being quick and lean. Lou emphasizes the importance of finding a balance between building muscle and losing fat, debunking the fear of becoming bulky. The episode provides tips on how to smash your first 5k or 10k, including having a plan, slowing down, visualizing the run, running with others, and enjoying the process. Lou also highlights the significance of strength training and the benefits it brings to running. This episode will encourage listeners to make this year different by focusing on feeling their best and becoming the strongest and fittest version of themselves. KEY TAKEAWAYS Building muscle is important for achieving a lean and strong physique. Running at a slower pace can help improve endurance and prevent burnout. Visualizing a challenging run as being difficult can help mentally prepare for it. Running with others can provide motivation and make the experience more enjoyable. Strength training is crucial for supporting the body during running and improving overall performance. BEST MOMENTS "People don't want that skinny fat like look anymore, they don't want to feel weak, but they're also scared of bulking as well and feel like everyone's running and they don't want to fall behind pretty much." "I think this episode is going to really help break down some of those barriers that people have to becoming the strongest, fittest and healthiest version of themselves and quickest and just to help you feel amazing." "We cannot get bulky. If you are tracking and you're in a calorie deficit, it's literally impossible because you'll be losing fat at the same time as building muscle."  "You can only win from putting muscle on in terms of feeling fitter, being able to run quicker and feeling stronger and just more functional." "Slow down. I have said this so many times, I've said it over and over again on Instagram, if you follow me on Instagram, at the exercise engineer, but most people set off way too quick and it just kills you off."  VALUABLE RESOURCES https://linktr.ee/theexerciseengineerlou@theexerciseengineer.com HOST BIO Lou's personal journey with body confidence and food struggles began at the age of 15, where overeating and guilt around food consumed her. But everything changed during the lockdown in March 2020. Determined to regain control, Lou immersed herself in research, found joy in working out in her garden, and started tracking her nutrition and steps. Surprisingly, she lost a stone in less than three months and discovered a newfound love for fitness. Fueling her passion, Lou pursued personal training qualifications and launched her Instagram page in September 2020. After months of building a solid foundation, branding, and gaining relevant expertise, she started helping others achieve what once felt impossible—losing fat, feeling empowered, and loving the journey without restrictions. With numerous success stories, digital products, and a thriving membership program called Train with Lou, Lou now coaches, teaches, and learns about food, exercise, and mindset.

For this episode, Joel and Andy explain why websites are not dead, despite the availability of Facebook and other social media platforms. They discuss how to work out what you want your website to achieve and get the right style of site built. Joel and Andy cover ensuring that the customer understands what you offer, and what makes you stand out, as well as provide the information they need to decide to buy. KEY TAKEAWAYS Any business looking for growth needs a website. Social media is rarely enough. You need to understand what you want your website to do for your business. People are taking longer to decide to spend. They want to know they can trust you, something that your website really helps with. Getting a potential customer to visit your site is only step one. Even if what you are offering is free, your website still has to be structured to sell it to someone. They will still want their questions and concerns answered. Capture visitors' details and use that information. A website has got to look professional.  Building a website is hugely time-consuming and a steep learning curve. Usually, it is better to pay someone else to build it for you. Getting it to rank also takes a lot of time, effort and, often, money. BEST MOMENTS ‘People seem to be surprised that websites are still important in this day of Facebook and stuff. ´ ‘A website doesn´t have to be massive and complicated.' ‘It´s still got to provide a tip-top user experience.'   VALUABLE RESOURCES Stay Hungry Podcast Series Stay Hungry Bestselling Book Done-for-you marketing: www.codebreak.co.ukIf you're fed up with wasting your time and money on marketing that doesn't generate enquiries and sales - hop on a Codebreak discovery call.

This week, I'm joined by Jordan Reynolds, a professional boxer with an impressive record of seven wins in seven fights. We explore his journey from a troubled youth to finding solace and belonging in the boxing gym. He candidly discusses the challenges he faced, both inside and outside the ring, and how he used discipline and determination to overcome them. We delve into the world of boxing, examining the differences between amateur and professional fights, various boxing styles of different nations, and the importance of mindset and resilience in the sport. Jordan also opens up about his difficult upbringing, the trauma he experienced, and his desire to create a loving and supportive family environment. The discussion focuses on personal growth, spiritual practices, and why it's vital to give back to the community. TAKEAWAYS Jordan recognised his potential in boxing early on, even with limited experience. His determination and grit were evident in his amateur fights, where he faced opponents with far more experience and still performed well. You should always take your career seriously from the start. Jordan focussed on his diet, nutrition, and overall fitness, and was influenced by the professional boxers he trained with and aimed to emulate their dedication and commitment to their craft. You'll always encounter scepticism and negativity from some people who feel threatened by your ambition and drive. However, with a strong support system, you'll always overcome the doubters. In addition to his boxing career, Jordan has embraced various practices and experiences to enhance his personal growth and well-being. These include exploring spirituality, engaging in breathwork and meditation, and even participating in ceremonies involving ancient medicines like mushrooms. Jordan's openness to different practices reflects his desire to continually improve himself and find balance in his life. BEST MOMENTS "People want you to do well, but not better than them." "Life's hard, man. I've seen what it's done to people" "I was in the gym from 10 in the morning till 10 at night. It was like I belonged there and maybe as a kid growing up I never had that at home." "I've got to work, I've got to graft, man. 24-7 to get out of this."

She was a part of the Primrose Hill set, married to Jude Law, and friends with Kate Moss. The action-packed life of actress/producer/fashion designer Sadie Frost from the heady days of the nineties through 30 years in the entertainment industry, navigating media scandals, phone hacking, and a highly publicised divorce. On this week's episode of the On a Mission podcast, Sadie shares the lessons she's learned from 30 years in the entertainment industry and how she has built the strength and emotional resilience to pursue a life that's true to who she really is. Now, 30 years after her first starring role in Hollywood blockbuster Francis Ford Coppola's vampire classic, she is back on the big screen, taking the world by storm as a director and filmmaker. But it's been an incredible journey of self-discovery getting to this point. KEY TAKEAWAYS Sadie had a diverse upbringing, growing up in a hippie environment and being exposed to alternative practices such as yoga, meditation, and holistic healing from a young age. It was Sadie's raw ambition and drive to succeed in the entertainment industry which led to a scholarship at Italia Conti and a career in acting and modelling. Sadie definitely experienced the negative effects of fame and media scrutiny, including phone hacking and sensationalised stories, which impacted her mental health and relationships. We as a society of fame-watchers, must do better. Always focus on the importance of kindness, understanding, and support for those struggling with mental health issues, as well as the need to challenge societal norms and stereotypes. Sadie's journey towards wellness and self-care includes practices such as meditation, breathwork, grounding, and the companionship of a pet, which have helped her navigate challenges and find peace of mind. BEST MOMENTS "People just need to be thoughtful of how someone else is feeling and support people that are struggling." "I think the press like to kind of manufacture, they like to kind of create a kind of persona about people and things. Something would be written and it would be manipulated and changed." "I did get stronger, but I do resent the fact that I lost that time sometimes with the children and I couldn't have the normal things that you want to do with your kids." - Interviewee "You could very easily get a picture of someone blinking and say they're drunk!"

Hello and welcome to another episode of the Perception Podcast with me your host Caroline Partridge. In today's episode, I'm thrilled to be once again talking to award-winning therapist and trauma specialist Sally Baker. In light of the recent allegations against Russell Brand Sally and I discuss the power of the media in shaping our perceptions of survivor and perpetrator, and how women especially are judged in the public arena. We explore the elevated sense of self that can emerge with celebrity, and look at the acquisition of power as a tool of control.  Please join me as we look a life through a different lens.  KEY TAKEAWAYS The media has considerable power, particularly in perceived facts, as has recently been seen in the trial by media of Russell Brand and Harry and Megan. Frequently the public hold onto the soundbite put out by the media and don't understand or take the time to research the full picture and context. A lot of the time the people who are pulled up on things they have done or said are women and it's another layer of misogyny, where women can't speak openly. There are many layers of confinement and injustice for women in the film industry, from the connection of looks with success to the differences in pay. This isn't where the discrimination stops as Sally talks about why class and race impact a person's ability to even enter the industry. Those who have survived abuse can be portrayed as unreliable if they can't relay all facts and also because they have managed to overcome what happened to them. Trauma can impact a person's memory recall ability, especially for things like dates. There is a myriad of responses to being assaulted and regardless of which one a woman chooses she is often criticised for it. Every time you talk through a memory you reprocess it, this can create a gap between what happened and what you then can recall accurately. There is always some level of shame attached to talking about sexual assault, for this to then be in the media and the backlash that creates must be incredibly difficult and isolating for the victim. When the culture in TV and film is about adapting workplaces to aid the perpetrator, then it clearly demonstrates the sexist and misogynistic attitudes they have, women are suffering in multiple ways including being excluded from workplaces and jobs. People accept poor behaviour from others, especially those in higher roles than them as they want to be able to progress and develop their career. The benchmark for human decency, including personal hygiene, can be very low for famous people as they have a completely different attitude. Regardless of the situation, women are often blamed, society is built to support and therefore believe men. BEST MOMENTS ‘People make decisions based on emotion and any facts, true or false, become immaterial because our emotions are so powerful' ‘People immediately seize on a soundbite without hearing the whole of the context' ‘Here we are in 2023 and women are worried about what they're saying, doesn't feel like progress' ‘It's not only sexist it's classist and there are layers of discrimination' ‘They don't behave like normal civilians like you and I' 'Wherever we have power imbalances and have people who want to be chosen, they will put up with a lot of stuff' 'Everyone has access to you [with social media] and everyone has their say" 'I refuse to punch down on a woman I don't know and have never met [On Megan Markle] ABOUT THE GUEST  BIO Sally Baker Sally is a highly experienced licensed and accredited therapist, writer and speaker.

Fredrik interviews Paul Harper, an attorney and executive search consultant in the UK. Paul specializes in the financial services industry, particularly wealth management and associated insurance. They discuss the recruitment industry, the challenges of sales job interviews, and Paul's involvement in mergers and acquisitions. Tune in to learn more about Paul's work as a "headhunter" and gain insights into the financial services market. BEST MOMENTS "People in the UK use the term headhunter because they know if someone calls them up and they say that they're a headhunter, what they do, which is to basically work for companies to find top executives for them." "If you want to be found, so if you're a candidate and you want people to find you, to head something for good positions, they need to be able to quickly look at your profile and work out what you do." "You just want people to believe that when they've got a problem, you might be able to help them solve that problem." "When you've got your own business unless you're going to pay loads and loads of money to other people to do things you should be able to do yourself, you have to know about finance, marketing, sales, everything, everything, everything, operations."

This episode explores the lasting impact of discriminatory experiences on individuals and communities. Michael discusses how even a single instance of unfair treatment can leave a negative emotional residue, but when discrimination occurs regularly, it can lead to feelings of persecution, anger, and resentment. Michael emphasises the compounding effect of repeated discrimination, which can have detrimental effects on mental health, self-esteem, and confidence. He also shares a personal experience as a social worker, highlighting the importance of recognising and addressing bias in professional assessments. Overall, the episode sheds light on the pervasive nature of discrimination and the need for greater awareness and understanding of its impact. KEY TAKEAWAYS Discriminatory experiences can have a lasting impact on individuals, leading to negative feelings such as resentment, confusion, anger, and bitterness. Regular exposure to discrimination can compound the negative effects, leading to mental health issues, low self-esteem, and a lack of confidence. Discrimination can be traumatic, and repeated experiences can magnify the response to the trauma, causing individuals to become vulnerable, distressed, and anxious. Social workers need to have a clear understanding of how discrimination and oppression impact individuals and communities and be aware of how their own biases can contribute to discriminatory experiences. It is important for individuals to recognise their own capacity for bias and be conscious of the impact discrimination has on marginalised groups, who often live their entire lives in the shadow of discrimination. BEST MOMENTS "People who have lived through any discriminatory experience almost inevitably develop strong feelings towards those they see as having wronged them, and these feelings if experienced often, may develop into feelings of persecution." "If you regularly are subjected to discriminatory experiences, you become far less ease to shrug it off because the impact has a compounding effect." "The experiences are traumatic and the compounding impact is such that not only are recipients of discrimination unable to shrug off the effects, but because they occur often, the impact is pervasive and sensitising, causing people to become vulnerable, distressed and anxious." "Individuals or groups of people who are subjected regularly to discrimination begin to look for and expect the same or similar treatment waiting for them around the corner." "Certain discriminated groups though live their entire lives in the shadow of discrimination and this splights their lives to a far greater degree than the majority of people ever even begin to realize." familycourtcoaching@gmail.com Instagram: michael240656 Michael Watson is a qualified social worker and author with over thirty years of experience working with children and families. As an expert in family court, Michael is in a key position to assist, advise, and coach parents through their private law family proceedings and provide them with the information and skills to represent themselves successfully in court.

Lee discusses the challenge that many organisations face when it comes to deploying their strategies effectively. He emphasises the importance of engaging employees and creating a more meaningful and collaborative approach to strategy deployment. Lee introduces a framework of three key questions: Why are we doing this, what do our people need to be, and what elements do we need in place to achieve our goals? By answering these questions and involving the team in the process, leaders can create a clear direction, define desired behaviours, and establish the necessary systems to successfully implement their strategies. Lee concludes by offering a downloadable guide to help listeners navigate this framework and align their departments or functions towards their desired outcomes. KEY TAKEAWAYS Deploying a strategy within an organisation is full of challenges, it's essential we engage people in the process. Using a question framework to guide the deployment of a strategy, focusing on purpose, people, and process can help in helping things go smoothly. The purpose questions involve defining why the organisation is pursuing a particular strategy and what goals or metrics they aim to achieve. The people questions focus on identifying the desired habits and behaviours of employees that will contribute to the success of the strategy. The process questions involve determining the tangible elements and actions needed to support the desired behaviours and achieve the defined goals. BEST MOMENTS "People don't fear change, they fear being changed." "There is a better way than a lot of organisations adopt that can create a more engaging way to deliver the deployment of a strategy, of a direction, of a vision." "To achieve this, our people need to be role models, coaches, positive, respectful, and engaged." "This means we need to have the following things in place: communication system, certain meetings, certain governance, certain roles and responsibilities." "To make this a reality, these actions are required to be delivered. Who's going to do those actions? By when?"

People are by far the most complex conundrum for anyone to ever face. People are invariably the root of any problem that challenges and vexes us. Neil takes a look at the eternal walking mystery that is other people. KEY TAKEAWAYS Take away the humans from almost any situation and most of the problems go away. People bring problems, but our ability to help them is a possible rich opportunity. If you find yourself in the presence of a control freak, narcissist or gaslighter, do yourself a favour and extricate yourself promptly. There is no amount of money worth being made completely miserable by another toxic human being. BEST MOMENTS ‘People are without doubt the most complex, baffling, vile, beautiful, perfect, flawed, adorable, intriguing, savage, noble, mendacious and honest organisms in the cosmos.' ‘Some people are not good opportunities. The person may be just an opportunity to spend time with someone you don't like.' ‘Don't waste your life on a person who is a fixer-upper.'

On this episode of Build Better Brands, Danielle Clarke is joined by Amir Harvey Bazrafshan, head marketer and Apricot Sky, founder of Apricot Box, and MD of Apricot video marketing. Amir shares his extensive experience of audience building for B2B brands and how he helps businesses build audiences focussed on future buyers.KEY TAKEAWAYSI got into the Nottingham film scene in my late teens, early 20s which was thriving with independent films being made and government funding. There were a lot of opportunities to write, direct, work on film sets, learn how to shoot, etc. That was my entry into the industry while also working in marketing as a day job. After a while I was hired as head of marketing for a small film distribution company to source independent films, buy the rights to the ones we thought would be successful, and come up with marketing campaigns. After 4 years I got the itch to work for myself so I set up the video agency.Too many people go straight to tactics. The “over-ratification” of marketing is something that isn't good for the discipline and the people that do that. There's an opportunity cost there as well; it's costing you the ability to actually do something that's impactful.I was someone who always understood the importance of empathy and wanting to have a positive impact on people. But the impact and influence that going through the AltMBA has had on me is underscoring the absolute importance that if you want to do work that matters and make change you don't have a say, you have to be empathetic. It's a generous and difficult thing to do.In B2B there are a lot fewer people buying than you might realise. There's a 95/5 rule where around 95% of your audience aren't buying, but that means there are far more future buyers than people that are buying now. That should have a big impact on the way you do your marketing. You need to optimise and capture as much of the existing demand as you can, but you also need to be reaching, influencing and priming future buyers to think of us when they come to buy in the next quarter, the quarter after or next year. It's really important for long-term growth.BEST MOMENTS‘People in marketing can make a change… marketing is change.'‘Build the habit of noticing where there's resistance when you do something and get used to sitting in that feeling. It's just a feeling, it shouldn't stop you from doing work that's important and that matters.'‘Use the most customer-centric lens you can to understand what their priorities are, where their struggles are and create a strategy around those.'‘Storytelling is vastly under-used in B2B, but it's leverage, it's a really good mechanism for articulating the change that you make but again in a customer centric way, in a way that someone who's not buying will care about.'ABOUT THE GUESTAmir Harvey Bazrafshan: I'm a lifelong learner with an interest in strategy, marketing, persuasion and psychology.Before starting my agency in 2012, I worked in marketing in the film industry.Since launching my own business, the work we have done has helped b2b brands grow their brand, increase their audience and make more sales, faster.I've also coached on Seth Godin's altMBA since 2016 and worked with leaders from brands such as Google, Adobe and Oracle.ApricotSky is my latest venture. It's my most significant project to date because audience building is a key missing part of the b2b marketing puzzle.Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/amir-bazrafshan/ PODCAST DESCRIPTIONThe Build Better Brands podcast is to inspire small business owners and help them realise that they don't have to be Nike to have a great brand, and the sooner they start to focus on making it better, the sooner they can improve their lives and the lives of others.On the show I'll be talking to business owners that have built brands from the ground up.

Free Webinar | https://bit.ly/podcastpowr Kane and Ash discuss how to approach the world of podcasting as a newbie and the right attitudes and mindsets to have to find success. If you are apprehensive or anxious about starting your podcast and releasing your content into the world, this episode is for you, it will challenge your preconceptions and alter your perception of podcasting! KEY TAKEAWAYS It's not embarrassing if no one listens to your podcast to start with, no one knows your numbers. Negative reviews on podcast platforms are very rare, so don't be frightened when releasing content. If you have content that can help people, you are doing those people a disservice by not releasing it. Monetising a podcast isn't just about ads and sponsorship, if you are getting referrals and clients via your podcast that is monetisation. Consistent numbers mean you have a diehard following. You don't need thousands of listeners, you just need a dedicated and loyal audience. BEST MOMENTS “People don't say anything when they're happy” “It's different people who listen to podcasts than most people who consume social media” “With the right guidance you can make a lot of money through it, sponsorship isn't the only way to monetise your podcast” “Numbers on a screen, they don't really mean anything” “Don't doubt yourself, don't compare yourself to others, comparison is the thief of joy” VALUABLE RESOURCES Podcast Production - The Cost of the Wrong Choice How to Launch a Number 1 Podcast - Part 1 Free Podcast Workshop https://tinyurl.com/Podhelp ABOUT THE HOSTS Kane Baron, Ashley Morris & Thom Luter manage over 150 live podcasts Including Rob Moore, Kevin Clifton, Shaa Wasmand MBE & more. Helping Entrepreneurs Launch, Scale & Monetise their podcast for over 6 years.

This episode follows up on a post Julie made on social media about the Coronation. She discusses how you can be appreciative of the beauty of what's in front of you and why across our world everything is connected and nothing sits isolation and reflects on why communication above everything else is the key to getting any message across and having others hear what you are saying   KEY TAKEAWAYS I can see things from all perspectives and I can appreciate and admire the pageantry of the event People across the world are interested in the pageantry and event An appreciation of something that the UK does well was then demonised by some in some respects Regardless of what you believe it's important to see the beauty of what's in front of you Learn to think and make your own decisions and do your own research Appreciate the good, do your own research and make your own decisions Self-awareness leads to self-mastery, learn how to use language well and you can get your message across and make sure that people hear you Communication is the one skill that transcends everything else   BEST MOMENTS ‘People said that the items used for the ceremony were being recycled' ‘Manage your emotions and learn how to express yourself well' ‘Nothing sits in isolation, everything is connected'   VALUABLE RESOURCES The Life-Changing Magic of Setting Goals book by Julie Hogbin    The Authorities - Julie Hogbin: Powerful Wisdom from Leaders in the Field book by Julie Hogbin, Raymond Aaron, Marci Shimoff, Dr John Gray Stress The Reality by Julie Hogbin   ABOUT THE HOST Julie Hogbin I started my career within the accountancy profession, moving on into auditing, then Learning & Development where I have spent over 30 years.

Kane and Ash outline the easiest way to start a membership site in the episode as well as why podcasters are one of the highest converting creators. They share how you can leverage your content and time as a podcaster and the many options available to you in creating content for a membership site.   KEY TAKEAWAYS Podcasters convert the highest on Patreon and the content that converts the most is extra episodes. As well as bonus episodes you can offer extended versions of content behind a membership paywall. You can also offer early access to your content, ad-free episodes or even Q&A sessions to your members. If you don't have much time to offer additional content then have a low fee, £5 is a great starting point and you can always scale later on. You can always start a free community for a period and then introduce a fee for people who want to continue to have access. BEST MOMENTS “People buy in, they like you, they want more content” “If you're time poor just add an additional podcast if you can” “Never promise anything and then don't deliver or deliver late” VALUABLE RESOURCES Podcast Production - The Cost of the Wrong Choice How to Launch a Number 1 Podcast - Part 1 Free Podcast Workshop https://tinyurl.com/Podhelp ABOUT THE HOSTS Kane Baron, Ashley Morris & Thom Luter manage over 150 live podcasts Including Rob Moore, Kevin Clifton, Shaa Wasmand MBE & more. Helping Entrepreneurs Launch, Scale & Monetise their podcast for over 6 years.

Dr Irene and Saj discuss his beginnings in Property Investment, the secret of success, using failure as growth, the importance of family, the meaning of success, mentors and coaches, and focus.   KEY TAKEAWAYS The value of building good relationships in Property Investment cannot be underestimated. Often we get very attached to our businesses but we must recognise when we must cut our losses. Work-life balance is an essential consideration for an entrepreneur. Success is to have freedom and choice. Be outstanding at one thing before you move on to something else to keep things focused. The ability to be able to coach someone to a skill is a skill in itself. BEST MOMENTS ‘People are the key to success, there's no doubt about that. It's all a people business.'-Saj ‘Sometimes you've got to recognise when you have to draw a line under something.'-Saj ‘You say I'm doing this for them, but you're not there for them. You're buying them nice toys or presents and things but that doesn't really substitute for being there.'-Saj ‘When people retire it means they go off and do what they want to do, play golf or go on holiday. I do what I want to do anyway.'-Saj ‘Audience, please remember! Don't chase after all these shiny pennies.'-Dr Irene ‘Property is not easy. It is hard work. The processes are simple, but it is not easy.'-Saj VALUABLE RESOURCES Join Patreon : http://www.patreon.com/drireneching Instagram: irene.ching.777 Tiktok: @ireneching777 Youtube channel: Dr Irene Ching Twitter: @ireneching7777 Clubhouse: @ireneching1 https://www.facebook.com/irene.ching.735 LinkedIn : https://www.linkedin.com/in/irene-ching-742623219 ABOUT THE HOST Dr Irene Ching is a medical practitioner who specialises in Family Medicine, Wealth and Life Coach, Property/ Business Investor, Speaker, and Podcaster : Be Happy, Healthy and Wealthy.

On this episode of the Lead With Purpose podcast host, Tze Ching Yeung talks about so-called KPI's (Key person of Influence), someone who has a significant impact on the success of a business, which every business should have.KEY TAKEAWAYS Sometimes I talk to clients and they don't want to be the ‘front-person' of their business, they want to remain anonymous. In my opinion, it's a mistake because when you have a key person of influence it's much easier for your client or customers to relate to you as a human. This is what sets you apart from being a brand rather than a commodity. A KPI are individuals who have a high level influence, credibility and expertise in their field and who are often seen as thought leaders or industry experts. If you are one of these people you should definitely step forward within your business to speak about your work, your values, and the message that you have for your business. KPIs are important within a business for several reasons, I believe that KPIs can really help drive sales because they often have a really large following and a strong reputation which can help increase the visibility and credibility of a business. This is turn can lead to increased sales and revenue. They can also attract investment because investors are often attracted to a business that has a strong KPI because they recognise the value that these individuals can bring to the table. They can also act as brand ambassadors promoting a business and its products and services to a wider audience and they can help build brand awareness and customer loyalty.  Becoming a KPI in a certain field or industry requires work and consistency in your messaging and so on. You need to stay up to date with the latest trends, do research into best practices and continuously expand your knowledge and skills, you can't stand still because other people will take the position. You should build a strong personal brand by developing a clear and consistent message about your skills and expertise as well as building a strong online presence through social media, blogging, YouTube, podcasting, etc.  BEST MOMENTS‘People do like to connect with other people, I think that's why having a key person of influence within your business is very, very powerful and very important as well.'‘If the KPI is the founder of the business that's amazing, but you can also have other KPIs within your company or hire an influencer to be that KPI for your business or brand.'‘KPIs can provide valuable insight and expertise. This can help to drive innovation and also increase efficiency as well if you engage with the right KPIs.'‘Businesses should really seek to identify and collaborate with KPIs who align with their values and objectives.' ABOUT THE HOSTTze Ching started her entrepreneurial journey back in 2007 with the launch of a sustainable clothing and home furnishing ecommerce business. Next, she created a sustainable fashion brand. In 2019, she launched a social enterprise to help raise awareness about the negative impact of fashion at schools and colleges.  Through the 15-year journey, she learned so much, but easily the most meaningful lesson learned was about the importance of marketing. She now focuses on channelling those insights to help others succeed, through We Disrupt Agency, a business coaching, mentoring and digital marketing company.  Tze Ching's mission is to create a community of global change makers and to contribute to positive change in both people and planet.

In today's episode, I talk to the remarkable Daryl Hembrough. Daryl shares his earliest memories of living with the rare genetic condition Pfeiffer Syndrome and how by the age of 11 he had undergone an estimated 250 surgeries. We talk about exclusion, institutions, and what the future holds, and we discuss the importance of art and comedy.  Please join me as we look at life through a different lens. KEY TAKEAWAYS Until the age of 18 Daryl spent 99% of his life either in the hospital or attending outpatient appointments. As a child, when you are labelled e.g., the naughty one, you tend to behave in that way. Living with a serious medical condition makes many kids incredibly determined and strong. Often, they overachieve and do remarkable things. Being on stage is a great way to engage with others, it is good for both parties. Having a serious medical condition is just a part of who you are. It does not define you. BEST MOMENTS ‘People don't really see people; they see the condition that somebody has and then label that person. ´ ‘Being on the caring side of it. Like my parents were, the doctors and nurses were a hell of a lot harder than being the patient.' ‘It (storytelling) helps me to remember stuff… it's therapy.' ‘Whatever happens to us we're still kind of the spirit of who we are, as opposed to anything that is physical.' ABOUT THE GUEST 'I was born with a rare condition called Pfeiffer Syndrome and I've had many other conditions over the years. I model, I act, and I do other things.' https://youtu.be/D8tH9lS_NpM https://youtu.be/ot5nSdR6HjI https://youtu.be/792KHXR2RFc https://youtu.be/hZJO57s2NeM Socials & Contact: instagram.com/daryljhembrough linktree.com/daryl.hembrough.model model@darylhembrough.com ABOUT THE HOST Bio Caroline Partridge is a unique and creative individual.

We become the sum of our parts and each of us has our own unique view of the world. 'Vision' truly is an act of interpretation.  In this podcast series through fascinating conversations, I set about trying to understand how we form our perceptions, view different perspectives, and examine how perception has influenced, inspired, or hindered the lives of each of my unique guests.

Have you ever held yourself back when asked to speak or present? Christine addresses situations in which you can be tested or deliberately manipulated, including a personal story of her own, and examines how we can build our defences against negative influences, both external and internal and free ourselves to express with confidence in our abilities and knowledge. Take your first steps to become bulls**t resistant.CHRISTINE REVEALS:How advertising takes advantage of your vulnerabilities to sell to you.How our formative years shape us with lessons to be embraced or unlearned to return to the confidence levels we are all born with.How confidence is not only dictated by knowledge of the subject but by the perceived difficulty of the task at hand.An invaluable piece of advice to help you nurture confidence.How to sound confident in professional situations, even if you don't feel like it inside.BEST MOMENTS“People are used to being made to feel afraid then convinced the fearmonger has the solution. It's happened for decades, more than decades.”“As we grow and develop in playgroups and preschool and before it, and throughout our lives, so too does our confidence and trust.”  “In approximately 50% of respondents, confidence was also reflected by the perceived uncertainty of the task at hand.” “Confidence isn't something we can simply change overnight. It's as layered as the therapist's onion representing our emotions and our experience.”“I am confident enough in my own learning and experience to share what I am sharing today. It's helped me, my family members and my clients. I don't need anyone else to validate its truth.”CONTACT METHODEmail: christine@languagecouragecoaching.comInstagram: connected_communicationWebsite : www.languagecouragecoaching.comTraining: www.phenomenalpresenters.comABOUT THE PODCASTCultivate confident English-speaking skills with Connected Communication, the podcast series for anyone communicating in English as a global lingua franca.

Dorian Selz is a three time-founder and the CEO and co-founder of Squirro, a semantic enterprise business platform helping other businesses with their decision making. He joins Ryan to discuss the benefits of AI, particularly how it can be used to reduce churn in a business. Dorian also reveals the top 3 reasons people leave your service and why Squirro wouldn't be where it is today without the backing of Salesforce and clients such as The Bank of England. KEY TAKEAWAYS Squirro uses outbound and inbound marketing strategies to target business functions with specific value propositions. Squirro has a good reputation within the financial industry, in part due to working with large clients such as The Bank of England. Acquiring the backing of Salesforce was not only beneficial for Squirro in terms of financial means but also in terms of expertise and experience. The Achilles heel of all search engines is that the end user cannot express what they are looking for. Dorian set out to take information to people rather than them having to go to it, this was the concept behind Squirro. You need contextualising of any end user and a better understanding of the content at hand for machine learning to work effectively within businesses. The top 3 causes of churn are product issues and defects and products not working as promised, people not feeling they are taken seriously and finally not having their issues addressed or problems fixed. BEST MOMENTS “People have effectively heard of us and come to us and that's the upside of inbound, reputation” “At a time, we even beat google at their own game” “So you're linking the probability, then the direct linkage that you see through patterns” “We help you allocate your time wisely” Do You Want The Closing Secrets That Helped Close Over $125 Million in New Business for Free?"  Grab them HERE: https://www.whalesellingsystem.com/closingsecrets Ryan Staley Founder and CEO Whale Boss 312-848-7443 ryan@whalesellingsystem.com www.ryanstaley.io  EPISODE RESOURCES https://www.linkedin.com/in/dselz/?originalSubdomain=ch ABOUT THE SHOW How do you grow like a VC-backed company without taking on investors?

In this Tiny Noticeable Things episode David talks about another small thing that can be leveraged to help you to live a life with purpose and fulfill your dreams. Today, he quickly takes you through 5 quick and easy changes you can make to build rapport. To make a connection with people that will lead to stronger relationships and the ability to serve your customers better. KEY TAKEAWAYS Quickly building rapport with people you meet leads to better results in all aspects of your life. The impression you make happens within 4 seconds of your meeting someone, and that persists until you actively change it. Be genuinely curious to show that you care. It is a skill that you can quickly learn.  Communication is about body language and tonality rather than the words you use. Talk in the context of the other person's interests. Don't make assumptions. If you get it wrong, you will break any rapport you have. BEST MOMENTS ‘People don't care about how much you know until they know how much you care.' ‘When you're meeting new people, you´ve got around about 4 seconds to make an impression.' ‘Start your questions with what, when, why, who, which, where, and how to stay genuinely curious.' ‘If you are talking about something relevant to you, relate it to something that is also relevant to them.' ABOUT THE SHOW People with purpose make a difference. Imagine a world where more people can just get their purpose out of them, into a plan, and then actually make it happen. What a world that would be - People everywhere finding meaning and harnessing that to bring inspiration and energy to each and every day, changing lives for the better. But no one ever achieved anything on their own - we all have something unique to bring and that means we all have to play our part - if we want to go far we have to go together and lead or serve towards a vision of the world we want to see. Everyone has a story to tell, and this show is where these stories come to life. ABOUT THE HOST David Roberts is a highly regarded CEO, mentor, and investor with 30 years of experience across multiple sectors. As an intrapreneur and entrepreneur, David has bought, grown, started, and sold several businesses, working with values-driven start-ups, award-winning SMEs, and multinational corporations on strategies for service excellence, leadership, and profitable growth. David's passion is for purpose and creating an environment where everyone can succeed, through building teams that get things done, execute on their mission with passion, deliver exceptional service, and really make a difference.

In this episode, Joel sits down with Laurie Burrows who helps people to launch, grow and scale courses and membership sites. Something Laurie does herself, which has enabled her to regularly enjoy 100k months. Laurie explains how Covid, getting pregnant, and losing two beloved members of her family pushed her to get super smart about creating effective content. She explains why sharing your story is so effective. Doing so in a way that resonates with others. Including practical tips and strategies, anyone can apply when creating content for marketing and building their brand. KEY TAKEAWAYS Starting your own business can give you freedom. But when it is time to scale you need a team. Trying to do it all yourself doesn't work. Often, adversity forces you to make the changes that end up driving your business forwards. Be authentic, you don't want to end up sounding like a watered-down version of those that inspire you. Keep up with what is happening in your customer's life and adapt your content accordingly. Don't worry about making mistakes, it shows vulnerability and demonstrates that you are real. Both of which help you to attract and retain clients. Post daily, you have to stay visible. Share evidence of your experience in your stories. Shouting about your results from the rooftops is not unprofessional. You are not boasting you are celebrating. BEST MOMENTS ‘People absorb content in different ways. ´ ‘In business, when you have adversity, it forces you to make different decisions.' ‘True relationships are built on empathy. They (your clients) empathise with their situation, and they empathise with yours.'

On this episode of Woman Power Zone, Ariel talks about the power of the word ‘yes', but to talk about the power of yes she also needs to talk about how people live in a place of ‘no' and negativity.  KEY TAKEAWAYS Some people say not to everything and expect things not to work out, there's always a reason why newness is a bad thing. A lot of us live our lives in the past, something bad, negative, unpleasant, painful or difficult happened and we developed an avoidance coping strategy to avoid anything that could possibly lead to a similar experience. So, we say no to experiences that could be helpful or help us grow or have the life that we're looking for. We also act like the thing in the past, that we're trying to avoid, will happen again, which is crazy. We need to embrace the power of yes and open up to new possibilities. The power of yes is where we're open to accomplishing a goal, even though it looks like there are a million obstacles in the way, and we say yes to doing the things that make that goal happen. To be in the power of yes, we need to let go of our emotional negativity, fear and holding on to the past. Ironically, even though holding onto the past gives us nothing we often seek the security of the known of negativity rather than the unknown of positivity and what good things could happen. A lot of people seek security above all else, they have to let go of their tendency of seeking security in order to open up to the power of yes. We've all experienced negative states, it's a part of life, I'm not suggesting that you're always going to be in a positive state. However, when you're in a negative state, you're going to want to shift yourself out of that and into something else. Think about a situation you have and notice your thoughts about it. Do you just assume it's not going to work out? When you're thinking that way, instead, ask yourself “is there a possibility that this could turn out another way?” If you keep focussing on that and imagine other outcomes that are positive, imagining that can shift the energy of your internal experience which can sometimes affect your external experience. BEST MOMENTS “People limit themselves and shut down their energy flow and don't get to live a life that's positive or lift themselves up or opening to another space of possibility where something else could show up. After doing this for a number of years people start to live a very closed life.”“If we assume the things we do now will lead to the same outcome of things that happened in the past we could end up creating a self-fulfilling cycle of creating outcomes and ironically creating the negative experience that we didn't want to create before.”“The power of yes is a belief that with inspired action you can get something done. It's not a catchphrase, it's a perspective of openness.”“Contemplating new conclusions builds different neural pathways in your brain and also lowers stress hormones in your blood.” ABOUT THE HOST Ariel is a Licensed Massage Therapist, Registered Clinical Hypnotherapist, Reiki Master, Empath and Psychic who has been involved in holistic healing since 1988.

In this episode Ariel is joined by Stacy Heller, a business empath and intuitive, who helps people bring alive their vision and helps them do what they love. They talk about how to connect with your inner aliveness.  KEY TAKEAWAYS For years I thought that I was really intelligent, but it turns out I'm just articulate and basically, a lot of the information that I was getting about things – opinion, suggestions, ideas, insights – were actually downloads of information (from nowhere that makes sense for who you're working with or whoever the message is for) that had nothing to do with my intelligence. I just knew how to articulate them in a way that whomever I was talking to, working with, partnering with would understand. People come to me looking for direction, messaging, how to move forward with their potential. My intuition comes into it because, again, I don't necessarily know things about insurance, law or financial advice, but my clients are really varied, but the one thing they all have in common is that they want to be seen to be authentic and they want their message to be understood and that's something I can do. If I were to go back to school and study something, my whole body of research would be about exploring who we were when we were 6-8 years old and how we played, what was our imaginary play? It's as applicable for women as it is for men, what did we do? What did we dream about before our parents forced us to take ballet or our friends said ‘that's not cool', or financial situations and awareness of social norms. What are the things that made us really happy, that place that we were content? I have a friend that needed to make some extra money and it was going into the holidays and I said: “What do you like to do?” She replied: “When I was a kid I really enjoyed wrapping presents, I was really good at it, people always commented on it.” There you go, let people know you want to wrap presents and that you'd be happy to do it. She ended up not making a ton of money, but enough that she was able to do what was stressing her out and she had so much fun and went back to her childhood. BEST MOMENTS“People that have really strayed from their earliest dreams but have a thin line to it that has stayed with them are happier than people who have completely snipped the line.”“Sometimes it helps to look at a picture of yourself between 6-8 and think ‘what was it that really made them happy?' Are you doing anything that you can even remotely translate into what made you happy at that age? What makes your tail wag?”“The universe doesn't hear negative, so all it does (when you say ‘I don't want that') is remove the word ‘don't' and what it hears is ‘I want, I want, I want'. Now you're getting all of these negative things. Also, replace the word ‘what' with the word ‘and'.”“You can go to the pity party, but you can only stay for one drink. The aliveness of being upset or overwhelmed is a good feeling and you should feel it, but then you should step away and say you've had enough, otherwise you'll start wallowing.” ABOUT THE GUESTStacy Heller offers intuitive branding ideas for her clients and/or their business.

I Is comedy under threat from woke culture? Join Rob as he talks to comedian and writer Russell Kane all about cancel culture, comedy and business. They also delve deep into the difficulties of masculinity in the modern world and the role of social media in comedy and mental health. KEY TAKEAWAYS Russell Kane doesn't think that there is a war on comedy. Some of the most popular comedians of today say very controversial things such as Ricky Gervais and Jimmy Carr. More things can be said now than back in the 70s, we've just changed what can't be said. When words cause violence or real psychological damage, then it's not ok. You need boundary, argument and debate at the periphery of comedy, that's where the humour lies. Russell learnt, through copywriting and comedy, to separate his ego from his art and creativity. He learnt to handle rejection well. Russell never planned to go into comedy, it was simply one of the things he thought he would try and it turned out that he was good at it! Comedy for Russell was like crack cocaine, his life was falling apart, yet he kept going back to stand up for more. He had to make a decision ,and this is when he quit his job. Russell approaches his comedy career like a business. It's one of the ways he protects himself from setbacks. Coming from a working class background and living an ordinary life before comedy means that Russell always has and still can, tap into how an ordinary person thinks. The more successful you get as a comedian, the more negativity you pick up along the way. Look for the ideas that don't make sense, this is often where the magic lies and Russell has seen this again and again in both business and comedy. Planning for the future is something Russell has always focuses on. He has always had a plan and diversified ways to make a living for now and the future too. If you aren't willing to put in the work to build a stand up career, then you aren't going to have a career full stop. Practice is the key to success for comedy. Russell is so successful because he has worked hard and spent time refining and practicing his art. A lot of what people are interpreting as anti-freedom of speech is actually just unsophisticated AI, it's often just technology gone wrong. Masculinity is a mess; this is why Kane started his series Man Baggage, exploring exactly this. We need better sex education and emotional education for men. BEST MOMENTS “People forget how much we can say now” “Does it cause harm, hate or criminal activity in the real world, if not it's probably ok” “My first language remains chav” “Slow, highly engaged growth is what you want [on social media]) “It's all practice, I'm not genius at work here I probably just have more willpower” “Something has gone wrong with masculinity”  “Men use humour as a salve” VALUABLE RESOURCES https://robmoore.com/ bit.ly/Robsupporter   https://robmoore.com/podbooks  rob.team ABOUT THE HOST Rob Moore is an author of 9 business books, 5 UK bestsellers, holds 3 world records for public speaking, entrepreneur, property investor, and property educator.

I'm super passionate about crypto as it has given me the freedom to be able to do what I want, when I want, with whoever I want.   Now my mission is to try and get as many people enjoying crypto as much as I do. So I teach total beginners how to start investing into crypto to give them a solid portfolio and investment plan. I teach people that already know about crypto how to streamline their portfolios so they are able to get a steady income stream. I also run an investment fund as not everyone has time to learn so I invest for them.   I wasn't always a cryptopreneur. I used to be an electrician and had my own electrical contracting company. For about 20 years I've been trading the financial markets as a hobby/side hustle this was used to pay for my holidays, renovations, etc   I became aware of crypto in 2015 and purchased my first Bitcoin in 2016 but didn't really think it was something that would stick around but I have always dabbled in it and kept an eye on it as it started to get more and more mainstream.   March 2020 came and Bitcoin was about $4k. Covid 19 was here and we were all in lock down, this is when I really hit it full time. I had temporarily closed my electrical company and just did crypto, this is when I started teaching people over zoom and how to get in and trade crypto.   So at the moment my son runs my electrical business and I just eat, sleep and breathe crypto and I am truly living the dream.   ABOUT THE HOST Alex is a prize-winning chartered accountant with experience in financial markets from trading finance, capital hedging, structural foreign exchange, and interest rates to operational risk from the world's top financial and advisory institutions including Deloitte, RBS, and JPMorgan Chase Alex has been involved in property development programmes across different types since 2008, building and managing a portfolio that includes standard buy-to-lets, student accommodation and other houses in multiple occupancy (HMOs).

Do you want to become a master negotiator? Do you want to secure property deals and grow your business? If the answer is yes, this episode is for you. Your host, Kevin McDonnell interviews world renowned negotiation expert and best-selling author of bare-knuckle negotiation, Simon Hazeldine. Kevin and Simon discuss the key skills you need to have to become a master negotiator, mistakes to avoid and techniques to follow to ensure you end up with the deal you deserve. ***FREE DOWNLOAD*** How YOU Can Make A FORTUNE From Buy-To-Let https://bit.ly/BTLReport-POD KEY TAKEAWAYS What do you see as the key skills of a master negotiator? Being a good negotiator is a critical part of your skill set, have a successful property portfolio, property investment, investment business. What makes what makes a really good negotiator is research shows, for example, a good negotiators gather twice as much information as they give, they focus a lot of time, a lot of efforts, a lot of energy in doing what I call getting inside the other person's head and understanding things from their point of view. Good negotiators are also very well planned and prepared. Make sure that people are thoroughly planned and prepared, that they follow a planning process that increases your confidence that helps you consider options before they come up. A good negotiator doesn't do every deal and a good negotiator does every deal that makes good commercial sense. Knowing when to walk is another important thing for people. Patience is also a good thing to be acting unhurriedly even if you are in a hurry, remaining as calm and objective as you possibly can because emotions can obviously flare, human beings are very emotional creatures. Be very polite and respectful is also a good thing. A good negotiator does less what is called irritating behaviours, finger pointing, aggression, sarcasm and insults. Keeping it professional is an important thing to do, particularly if you want to be doing repeat business with that individual or that organization. Good negotiators have the ability to step into their shoes of a seller and see it from the seller's point of view. Price is a factor in any negotiation. Usually, it is very rarely if ever, the only factor and if it's just got narrowed down to price, you might be missing other opportunities to add value to the deal for the other parts. It is always about the people, the people who own that property that you want to buy must be willing to also sell it to you or want to do a joint venture with you. If you find out what's most important to people and then you show them how you can help them get what's most important to them, that's selling a negotiation in a nutshell. Solve their problem instead of trying to buy their house. What are the biggest mistakes people make in negotiating? Moving too quickly to sort of doing the bargaining, how much are we going to pay and then that they don't spend enough time planning and preparing. They don't spend enough time understanding the perspective of the other person. New property investors, property developers are sometimes very anxious to get some notches, some numbers and get some deals done and sometimes pursue a deal far too long when they should walk away because they feel nothing's happening and it's not working. If your first five deals that you sign up roll pretty badly, you're going to have those bad boys in your portfolio for a while. Definitely move fast but move faster when the deal is right. Tips for getting better results in a negotiation. Do your homework and do your research. Knowledge is power, walk the streets, have a look, get to know the areas, monitor things, watch what's happening. Ask more questions, do less talking and more listening. Find out if you can construct something that is going to meet what that person needs, solve their problems and take away their pain. BEST MOMENTS “People think that negotiation is the sexy exciting cut and thrust, but that's only going to be sexy and exciting if you've done your homework in advance.” “The more time you invest in the deal, the harder psychologically it is to get out it.” “Neuroscience research shows that 95% of the influence on our decisions is from more emotional primitive regions of the brain.” “Average man or woman in the street thinks negotiation is open high, drop down, meet me halfway and back and forth but it's much more than that.” “Empathy is different to sympathy, empathy just means I get how you're feeling, I understand how you're feeling, I understand why this is important to you.” “Word of mouth is very powerful and also a very bad form of marketing, depending on what's being said about you.” “Understand that if you feel a bit uncomfortable, that's called being human and that's really normal and that's not a bad thing.” “The more you learn, the more you earn.” “The more desperate you are, the worst deal you will do.” “If you don't ask, you have rejected yourself.” “You make your own luck through the work and the effort and the focus that you put in.” VALUABLE RESOURCES simonhazeldine.com https://kevinmcdonnell.co.uk/ ABOUT THE HOST Kevin McDonnell is a Speaker, Author, Mentor & Professional Property Investor.

Diarmuid explains what the recommendations are and discusses with Rob the vital elements of a collaborative approach and informed decisions along with alternative strategies in the effective treatment of pain where it's all about starting small and building   KEY TAKEAWAYS The NICE guidelines are evidence-based recommendations for health and care The advice is to not initiate a prescription for opioid medication for chronic pain Opioids have a place in the treatment of shorter-term pain and for end of life care It's about making sure that people who are taking opioids are fully aware of the potential side effects If someone is taking opioids at a low dose and is seeing benefits it's about a shared care plan and the individual being fully aware of the risks It's about informed choice and shared decision making with the prescribing professional There are many factors to consider and the conversation with the clinician at the beginning is key in a personalised approach It's important to consider alternative strategies It's always a collaborative approach between the patient and the prescribing clinician A range of strategies should be considered around the pain being experienced and what the individual wants to achieve There are factors that influence pain that are beyond your control such as the environment Pain is complex and there are elements we are aware of and many that we are less aware of and have less control over It's about medication helping with the management and augmentation of pain   BEST MOMENTS ‘People expect that because they are called painkillers they will stop the pain but for most it's a reduction in pain' It's not about stopping opioids for everyone ‘It's starting small and building gradually   THE BACK PAIN PODCAST PROVIDER MAP - FINDING SOMEONE TO HELP YOU WITH YOUR BACK PAIN https://thebackpainpodcast.com/index.php/members-map/   VALUABLE RESOURCES The Back Pain Podcast The Back Pain Podcast website The Back Pain Podcast recommended products affiliate link Our Rode Mixer https://amzn.to/3waU8bx Our Microphones https://amzn.to/3rzSZ9Z Second Microphone https://amzn.to/2ObKMeA XLR Cable https://amzn.to/3rBL8ZB Studio Headphones https://amzn.to/3u082LE Laptophttps://amzn.to/3dhfafT Our webcam https://amzn.to/31uUefQ    RESOURCES FROM THIS EPISODE Opioids Aware Live Well With Pain Footsteps Festival 2021 Facebook   ABOUT THE HOSTS Dave Elliott Dave is the owner of Advanced Chiropractic, a chain of Chiropractic and massage therapy clinics in Essex, UK.

In this episode, Joel sits down to chat with Paul Cammack the director of Alfie´s Coffee Company. He talks about how he reached the point where people were requesting that his coffee van come to their area.  As well as how lockdown suddenly slowed his growth, which pushed him to go online earlier than planned and resulted in him creating new product lines. To start selling his award-winning freshly roasted beans across the country, including as a subscription service. He also explains how he tailors what he has to offer to his customers, while, at the same time, encouraging them to try other beans and invest in equipment to produce better results. KEY TAKEAWAYS Before lockdown, Alfie was selling his coffee and beans locally. Lockdown pushed him to go online faster. Alfie realised that lockdown got people more interested in making high-quality coffee at home. A market he tapped into. Using tech that is already available is a good way to grow your brand. Alfie explains how he is using an established app to do that. Focusing on helping your customer to get more out of your product can help you to sell more. Alfie shares several examples of this in the podcast. Understand who you are targeting and niche accordingly. E.g., are they interested in taste, exploring new beans or eco-friendliness? Give your customers the chance to explore what you have to offer. Alfie does this using coffee cupping, a service that he explains in the podcast.

Rob looks at disc bulges and explains why for some there is little or no pain whilst others experience pain that impacts every aspect of their daily lives. He discusses the key questions that can help in understanding an individual's experience of pain and explains how slow and subtle changes to the body are perceived very differently from sudden changes, which can be interpreted as a threat and experienced as pain This is a hugely informative episode that will help anyone understand more about their disc bulge, experience of pain and successful recovery   KEY TAKEAWAYS The pain can have taken over your daily life Having a discussion with your clinician about imaging findings is a key part of the recovery process A clinician may ask about fears, beliefs and understanding around pain to help them understand more A good opening question is ‘what do you think is the cause of your pain?' Do you believe this pain will ever go away? The conversation and approach with a patient will vary according to how this question is answered Most people walking around have disc bulges, some have no pain some have lots of pain When load is experienced as too quick, too strong, or too often, the brain can interpret this as a threat and pain can be experienced If the stresses are applied gradually the joints and tissues  have the chance to adapt and get stronger   BEST MOMENTS ‘People who have been in pain for a long time may believe it will never go away' ‘There are many factors that impact on someone's experience of pain ‘Two MRI scans can look identical but one person is in agony and the other has never suffered from back pain'   THE BACK PAIN PODCAST PROVIDER MAP - FINDING SOMEONE TO HELP YOU WITH YOUR BACK PAIN https://thebackpainpodcast.com/index.php/members-map/   VALUABLE RESOURCES The Back Pain Podcast The Back Pain Podcast website The Back Pain Podcast recommended products affiliate link Our Rode Mixer https://amzn.to/3waU8bx Our Microphones https://amzn.to/3rzSZ9Z Second Microphone https://amzn.to/2ObKMeA XLR Cable https://amzn.to/3rBL8ZB Studio Headphones https://amzn.to/3u082LE Laptophttps://amzn.to/3dhfafT Our webcam https://amzn.to/31uUefQ     ABOUT THE HOSTS Dave Elliott Dave is the owner of Advanced Chiropractic, a chain of Chiropractic and massage therapy clinics in Essex, UK.

A short but very insightful episode where Alex explores the concepts and illusions around time. He focuses on the importance of using your time wisely and reminding yourself what a precious resource it is to us all. KEY TAKEAWAYS Depending on the context, time can feel like it is flying by or like it is 'dragging'. For example, if you are waiting in an airport 10 minutes can easily feel like an hour but in contrast, your wedding day whizzes past. Time is the finite of resources that we have. We are all given 24 hours in the day but we all use it differently. It's so important that we use it wisely and treat it like the precious resource it is.

This ‘pingdemic' is ruining our country. Rob can't just sit still and stay quiet, he needs a rant and to tell you WHY the current Covid strategy is killing businesses.   KEY TAKEAWAYS    No one knows what they are doing, people are confused and scared. It is not working. Half of Rob's staff are getting pinged but none of them are testing positive. How can a company get back to normal if half their staff are off. Rob understands the impact of Covid and if people have it of course they need to isolate. But he feels like there is no clear strategy going forward and the current state of things is confusing and is crippling businesses all over the country. Rob isn't sure what we can do to change things but perhaps if enough business owners speak up then the government will start to support both employers and employees.   BEST MOMENTS    “People are confused and scared” “You're damned if you do, you're damned if you don't” “Freedom day was a con”   VALUABLE RESOURCES https://robmoore.com/ bit.ly/Robsupporter https://robmoore.com/podbooks See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Anushka Jain has taken over hosting duties on World Game-Changers this week and is interviewing Paul this time. The theme for this episode is soulmates and life partners and we get to learn what Paul and Anushka think about the meanings attached to these words. KEY TAKEAWAYS There are differences between a soulmate and a life partner: A soulmate is someone that comes into your life and helps you to grown within yourself, like altering your ‘C-Drive', whereas a life partner is more of a companion in life.   Soulmates give a deep connection and we don't meet too many of them in life, but you don't have a say in who they are because you're connected at the soul level. If you run your life like a computer on battery, or ego, before long it will go flat. Surrendering and letting go by plugging into an external source – which is different for all of us, but a very deep, soulful relationship with God of spirit whatever your particular choice is. I let go of what I think I want from an ego or human point of view and have the faith to know that the power is external and this will come through us as people and make us World Game-Changers. It's a massive generalisation, but masculine energies often struggle to recognise the immense power and love of the divine feminine, I don't, I've come to know that power. What helped me through my darkness was a deep faith that I couldn't make sense of, but I knew I was supposed to be here on this earth. BEST MOMENTS ‘People come into our lives to teach us lessons' ‘We're knitted together by something far bigger than our human selves' ‘The love I've received from women through my life has been absolutely priceless beyond description' ‘Love is the mother of faith and the grandmother of hope' VALUABLE RESOURCES Paul's Story: Emerging From The Forest (UK): https://www.amazon.co.uk/Emerging-Forest-Pain-Purpose-Mastering/dp/1719373272 Paul's Story: Emerging From The Forest (USA): https://www.amazon.com/Emerging-Forest-Pain-Purpose-Mastering/dp/1719373272 Mastering The Game Of Life Book (UK): https://www.amazon.co.uk/Mastering-Game-Life-Paul-Lowe/dp/1782227679 Mastering The Game Of Life Book (USA): https://www.amazon.com/Mastering-Game-Life-Paul-Lowe/dp/1782227679 Speaking From Our Hearts Books: Volumes 1-3 (Available on Amazon) World Game-Changers Group ABOUT THE GUEST Anushka Jain is the founder and CEO of “Share at Door Step” – a cause-commerce platform that allows users to donate goods and earn exclusive rewards.

Currently they are operating in eight cities across India, supporting 120+ charities and have facilitated close to half a million goods donations. Their mission is to create a world where every re-usable item reaches someone in need and doesn't end up in landfills.  Anushka believes that profit with purpose is how businesses must operate giving equal consideration to people, planet and profit, so that there is a fairer, more sustainable future for us all.

Paul is joined by Anuksha Jain once more to talk about Indian culture and how colour, family and food is a big part of that culture, and how it relates to love and relationships. KEY TAKEAWAYS India is known for having close relationships not just with your direct family, but with the entire extended family. Each relationship with every relative has a different specific name for that family member. You become childlike when you live simply and get away from all the adult things like money and financial security we've learned are ‘normal'. Love crosses class borders, everyone has someone they love and are loved by. It's amazing to see. The different colours of love describe the different stages of love in your life, from validation from your parents as a child, as you grow you surround yourself with people who give you the energy to allow you to do what you want to do. With a better understanding of yourself as you get older you get a better understanding of love. BEST MOMENTS ‘People are so friendly here, it's innate.' ‘People live so peacefully and love holds them all together.' ‘Fame and fortune will come and go. You'll never lose your heart.' ‘Everyone sings in India… not everyone can, but they will!'

On this episode of the World Game Changers podcast Paul D. Lowe is joined by a previous guest, Paul Kelly, who joins to talk about how the pandemic has affected his drive to follow his dreams and whether people put up barriers to how they really feel and if they're not OK. He has been teaching college students remotely throughout the last year and has seen the way some of them have been struggling throughout the pandemic and has had to identify their needs, communicate to understand their needs and refer them to the right help system. KEY TAKEAWAYS Why say what you're not when you know you're not happy, or well, or coping? It's better to be honest and seek the help that you need. People are too quick to hide their feelings, but the pandemic has allowed people to find out about themselves what they want and don't want from their lives. You can have different relationships with different people in different ways, but all relationships are about forming a common bond. Sometimes it takes time and you may have to restart the relationship with a better understanding of how to communicate with them. We have a lot of young people struggling with mental health issues that have come about through being locked down and not able to see their friends and relatives. Because of their age they lack the experience of bad times and this will be – for some – the some the last 18 months to 2 years will be the most difficult period they've ever experienced. BEST MOMENTS ‘People say ‘I'm OK', but really, is that good enough?' ‘Some people ask if you're OK because they want you to ask them, because actually they aren't and are reaching out.' ‘You have to look after and love yourself before you can look after someone else.' ‘Be kind. Encourage people, don't put them down.' ‘Everything is stacked against young people at the moment, I want to make things equal for them and I'll do whatever it takes.'

In this episode Rob speaks to one of the most curious men he has ever met, David McCourt. David is an entrepreneur, thought leader and author. He likes to ask those questions that make you analyse and reassess the big questions in life.   David talks about the advice he has received in the past, gives great insight into his entrepreneurial journey and shares some intuitive and perceptive tips for those entrepreneurs just starting out.       KEY TAKEAWAYS   When you first start out you don't know anything, this can be a curse as well as a blessing. Curiosity, persistence, passion and loving people is what you need to drive you to start a business, those are the traits you need for success, then the money will follow. It's ok the be afraid of failure. Fear is actually a driver and a part of passion. You are allowed to not want to fail but it's important that when you do, and you will, to get back up and try again. Being a young entrepreneur means you are able to take more, and bigger, risks. You have nothing to lose. Just envision what you expect the future to be like and aim for it. There has been a power shift to the bottom. For the past thousand years everything has come from the top down, rules have changed. Young entrepreneurs are changing the future. Schools need to continue to be able to teach children how to ‘connect the dots' in between knowledge. To learn how to connect thoughts and information to come up with a construct that you believe in. This was something the older generation took for granted in some ways, they were taught this and used this muscle as they didn't have the internet to rely on. The globalized world we live in is tough. Only two generations ago it was possible to be able to own a home and pay for all necessities on just one working salary. This is not the case anymore, it's incredibly hard for young people, these are the challenges they face. A positive attitude and a grateful mindset will mean that you find great success in this world as well as happiness. This is something David learnt from him mother who lived to be 103!   BEST MOMENTS   “People are really focused on making money and it's overrated”   “You really have to love people, you have to read, and listen, and think and talk to people and listen to their points of views” “Everybody's plan B is better than their plan A”  “Just because you read it, just because you saw it on the internet, doesn't make it true” “No matter how bad your day is going…just remember there are lots of people who have it worse so you just have to pick yourself up and move forward”     VALUABLE RESOURCES https://robmoore.com/ bit.ly/Robsupporter https://robmoore.com/podbooks     ABOUT THE HOST Rob Moore is an author of 9 business books, 5 UK bestsellers, holds 3 world records for public speaking, entrepreneur, property investor, and property educator.

You need to exercise throughout the day in the same way you drink water throughout the day Self-monitoring is about looking or the signs of change and recovery What can you do now that you couldn't before? It can be easy to forget where you were when you started. You need to understand and enforce a  positive mindset but also understand and identify when you are in a negative space. It's normal to have both good and bad days, the journey to recovery will be up and down   BEST MOMENTS ‘People developing self-management skills is so important' ‘You can ask your therapist ‘what can I do to help myself?'  ‘Reassurance that what is happening is normal is important'   VALUABLE RESOURCES The Back Pain Podcast The Back Pain Podcast website The Back Pain Podcast recommended products affiliate link Our Rode Mixer https://amzn.to/3waU8bx Our Microphones https://amzn.to/3rzSZ9Z Second Microphone https://amzn.to/2ObKMeA XLR Cable https://amzn.to/3rBL8ZB Studio Headphones https://amzn.to/3u082LE Laptophttps://amzn.to/3dhfafT Our webcam https://amzn.to/31uUefQ   ABOUT THE HOSTS Dave Elliot Dave is the owner of Advanced Chiropractic, a chain of Chiropractic and massage therapy clinics in Essex, UK.

Today in Rob’s fourth instalment of Eknath Easwaran's words to live by, he continues to discuss how we can apply Eknath’s learnings to our own paths of discovery, particularly regarding leading, managing and coaching.   KEY TAKEAWAYS This series of episodes is inspired by Eknath Easwaran who is an incredible thought leader and provides wonderful ways of looking at the world. Teams are made of individuals. Remember that every single person is an individual and everyone must find their own way and make their own path. This makes it even more incredible when teams truly work. Always consider that you know nothing. The minute you think you know something you essentially wall off further learning. Be the eternal student and always believe there is always something else to learn. Never underestimate the power of small things. Understand the power of routines and rituals. What do you need to do to build up the level of connection with those you work with? In today’s society, we are used to things happening quickly and can easily get frustrated. It’s important to remember that many things just take time. If something can go wrong it will. Life is challenging and difficult. It’s better to be practically positive, where you can be realistic and set the right goals, understanding where you need to be and still be positive at the same time. How may I serve? The greatest leaders are the greatest servers. Be open to your intuition. We all have those thoughts that seemingly come from nowhere, those gut feelings. The more you allow yourself to tune into that and put trust in it the better and easier your decision making will be.   BEST MOMENTS  “People are rarely at the same place at the same time…that unity is not easy to achieve” “It’s a very dangerous game to believe you have arrived” “There’s no such thing as a small thing” “There’s a difference between being negative and being realistic”  VALUABLE RESOURCES Leader Manager Coach Podcast   ABOUT THE HOST Rob Ryles is a UEFA A licensed coach with a League Managers Association qualification and a science and medicine background.

Register your interest in Serviced Accommodation Discovery Day here, and a member of our team will get back to you to confirm your place at your preferred date.     In this podcast, Kevin explains how social media can be used to secure more finance. As well as, how posting on the right platforms makes it easier to quickly find suitable SA properties. You can also use it to help you to find good team members and collaborators.   Kevin explains which platforms work best for SA businesses. Then shares several ways to use each one. He covers Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, YouTube, podcasting, and more. Kevin also explains how he broadcasts live to multiple social media platforms at the same time, while also creating a podcast.   KEY TAKEAWAYS Social media is a powerful tool that every SA business can benefit from. Spreading the word about the advantages of SA is a great way to get in front of landlords who want to work with you. Social media makes it easy to connect with collaborators and potential team members. Every SA business can benefit from having a FB page and engaging in FB groups. You can use YouTube to create an electronic welcome pack that shows your guests how to do things like how to operate the boiler. Kevin explains how he uses SteamYard to stream live on multiple platforms at once and create his podcast at the same time. Link to your website from each social media site. When you use social media be conscious of which audience you are speaking to. What you say to people you want to rent your property to is different from what you would say to landlords and agents. Use social media to document your journey from the very start.   BEST MOMENTS ‘People will bring you their properties for you to use as service accommodation. Posting on social media helps that to happen.' ‘Don't be put off when you're not getting lots of engagement on your social media. People are still watching. ‘ ‘Don't worry if you're not polished, don't worry if you're not experienced. And don't worry if you're nervous. Just do it anyway. ‘   VALUABLE RESOURCES The Serviced Accommodation Property Podcast https://propertysoldier.co.uk/ Rich Dad, Poor Dad by Robert T Kiyosaki Serviced Accommodation Success by Kevin Poneskis     ABOUT THE HOST Your host Kevin Poneskis enjoys public speaking, travelling, exercising, and keeping fit.

Today Rob is joined by the inspiring motivational speaker, trainer and best-selling author Mark Victor Hansen.  Famous for co-creating ‘Chicken Soup For The Soul' which has over 250 titles and have sold more than 500 million copies worldwide, Mark explains why he believes reading is a fundamental freedom of all freedoms. Rob and Mark also discuss why to achieve your destiny you need to be able to ask,  how there is greatness and super talent in everybody and what it means to be disruptive. KEY TAKEAWAYS Reading is a fundamental freedom of freedoms. Once you know how to read, you can set some great goals. Wouldn't it be nice if everybody in the world could read, learn and earn? There is a triangle to achieving goals which go: Learn, Earn and then Return.   Every disruptive person has got to understand that there is always a bridge, there is always a detour or a stop sign that you need to over, under, around or through to get to the other side in order to achieve what you want to achieve.   To achieve your destiny, you need to be able to ask. There are three parts to it, ask yourself, ask others and as God. Everybody out there who is unemployed or unhappily employed needs to know that there are questions to ask God. Ask God 400 times before you go to sleep ‘What is your destiny for me?” We're born over-endowed with 18 billion brain cells, they cannot come to work until you cut deep and question what your destiny is.   We need to find greatness in everybody. There is super talent in every single person. We are all unique. We all have our different hierarchy of values therefore there are no two people on the planet that are the same, meaning there is nobody like us. Sometimes we just need people to believe in us when we don't know that ourselves.   Worry is stewing without need to. It is a one-way elevator going down and it will make you involute rather than evolute. People are put on this earth to create and contribute and those people who feel depressed are not creating or contributing. You have to express rather than depress and to express, you have to contribute and create.   To be disruptive means that you cannot keep doing something the way it is already being done. When Steve Jobs went to Kodak and saw that they had not patented digital photography in one year, he took it and put it in a cell phone. Inside every company there is the greatness, you have to ask what is working and what you can change.   BEST MOMENTS “People love my stories, and I've got stories to tell” “The only way to get to your destiny is by asking.” “There's more than enough for everyone's needs, but not everyone's greed”   ABOUT THE GUEST Mark Victor Hansen is probably best known as the co-author for the Chicken Soup for the Soul book series and brand, setting world records in book sales, with over 500 million books sold. Mark also worked his way into a worldwide spotlight as a sought-after keynote speaker, and entrepreneurial marketing maven, creating a stream of successful people who have created massive success for themselves through Mark's unique teachings and wisdom. With his endearing charismatic style, Mark captures his audience's attention as well as their hearts. Having spoken to over 6000 audiences world-wide with his one-of-a-kind technique and masterful authority of his work, time and again he continues to receive high accolades from his audiences as one of the most dynamic and compelling speakers and leaders of our time. His credentials include a lifetime of entrepreneurial success, alternative energy pursuits, in addition to an extensive academic background. Many of Mark's ideas about the comprehensive XL Cover Article_Page_1success of all humanity came from his years of undergraduate study with the famous Buckminster Fuller, one of Albert Einstein's greatest students. http://markvictorhansen.com/about-mvh/ VALUABLE RESOURCES https://robmoore.com/ CONTACT METHOD Rob's official website: https://robmoore.com/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/robmooreprogressive/?ref=br_rs LinkedIn: https://uk.linkedin.com/in/robmoore1979 ABOUT THE HOST Rob Moore is an author of 9 business books, 5 UK bestsellers, holds 3 world records for public speaking, entrepreneur, property investor, and property educator.

In this, in-depth episode Shaz looks at what makes a business successful and what you should look for and do if you are starting or buying a business. It is a fact that being trained and holding qualifications in a particular area doesn't make you the right person to run a business in that sector but all businesses have shared elements and if you understand what these are, what your values are and how to build the right team then you can be the person who is running multiple successful businesses.   KEY TAKEAWAYS If you can get the marketing right you can run any type of business. Schedule the day to achieve more and ensure you are focused and have the right team in place so that you can delegate effectively. The more successful you become the more money you have available to invest in new projects and using your own money means you have control. All businesses are the same it's only the way individuals choose to run them that varies. You need to look at both the upside and the downsides of a business. To scale effectively look at how the business can be multiplied to create additional units. If you have been successful with a business then look for other businesses in the same sector that you can buy and make successful. If you can think creatively then you can always find opportunities to add value to a business. Do the numbers for a new business but be aware this is not the only thing to take into account. You've got to love and be passionate about your business but you don't have to be passionate about all of the sector. You should always create your businesses so that they are in a position to be sold. This is about your businesses being able to continue even if you are not there. When you are buying a business have key parameters and always do your due diligence.   BEST MOMENTS ‘People don't pay enough attention or spend enough on marketing' ‘The busier you become in business the more focused you become' ‘Passion can only take you so far, it's your values that can take you all the way'   VALUABLE RESOURCES shaz@aaa-accountants.co.uk   ABOUT THE HOST Shaz Nawaz is a serial entrepreneur; he owns five thriving businesses in diverse sectors.

Marketing is the most important function of any business because, without marketing, you don't have leads, and without leads, you've got nothing to convert into sales, but most people don't get that difference. Today's Money Podcast episode deep dives into the difference between generating revenue via sales and revenue via marketing, and why entrepreneurs should understand both. KEY TAKEAWAYS Marketing is the single most important function of any business, but people are not very good at getting clients because they're not focused or great at marketing. Very few entrepreneurs focus on marketing because most of them think they have the best product, but you have to be good at marketing your product for you to sell it. Sales revenue is outbound revenue; it is cold calling or even warm lead calling. It is converting leads into sales with a salesperson. There is a sales transaction involved. Small startups see revenue through sales as the main or only way of generating revenue, but that's not that scalable. That's outbound is a push, whereas you should probably rather have inbound, you'd rather have pull, that is, sales via marketing. A sale through marketing is where people buy off a landing page, a sales page, a sales video, a website and e-commerce engine. They buy off their own volition when they're doing Google searches, or they're online, or they buy from a marketing campaign where they check out and fill a cart. Marketing is a very good skill to learn because when you become great at marketing, you can sell most products or services pretty easily. Great marketing is removing the friction and increasing the trust which increases the speed and volume of transactions to you, and it's leverageable and scalable because it's not one to one reliant on you, it could scale globally. BEST MOMENTS “People going to a shop is marketing.” “Nothing sells itself.” “Push is sales, pull is marketing, outbound is sales, inbound is marketing.” “You could have the best product or service in the world, but if no one sees it, knows about it or has heard about it, then they can't buy it.” “No one is good at selling something that no one knows what it is.” VALUABLE RESOURCES https://robmoore.com/ ABOUT THE HOST Rob Moore is an author of 9 business books, 5 UK bestsellers, holds 3 world records for public speaking, entrepreneur, property investor, and property educator.

The sooner you start the sooner you will get where you want to go. The people who have the most wealth and the most success are the people who have invested in themselves.   BEST MOMENTS ‘People look back on it and wonder how they've done it so easily' ‘You need to see things as they are' ‘I want to help people to stop sleepwalking into poverty in older age'   VALUABLE RESOURCES The Property Nomads Website  https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/the-property-nomads-podcast/id1440016017 The Property Nomads - Stitcher Buy To Let: How To Get Started – By Rob Smallbone (Amazon)  101 Top Property Tips Rob Smallbone, Aaron Devoy  Katana Group Katana Training The Way of the Peaceful Warrior - Dan Millman - TrueVals - Trust Bricks System   To get Richard's e-book then please sign up to one of Katana's free events     ABOUT THE HOST Rob Smallbone the host of The Property Nomads Podcast, is on a global mission to guide your success.

Note: In the episode Daniel is introduced as 'Assistant Professor',this is incorrect. His official title is 'Associate Professor Dr Daniel Belavy'. We aplologise for this innacuracy.  Dave and Rob are with Associate professor Daniel Belavy, one of the authors of a new paper recently published in the British Journal of Sports Medicine which addresses the ultimate question ‘What exercise should I be doing for my lower back pain?' They discuss how network metanalysis was used to compare different types of exercise and the parameters that mean this research can be effectively used to understand which type of exercise should be undertaken by those with chronic back pain. KEY TAKEAWAYS We used a methodology analysis called network metanalysis to compare different types of exercise. This research focused entirely on bringing together studies that were about exercise as a treatment for lower back pain. The mode of exercise varied from Pilates, stabilisation, to stretching and extension work. Active exercise therapies are likely to be the most beneficial for back pain Helping people to reduce their fear of movement is a big part of the journey to recovery. Building confidence is part of the process in the treatment of back pain. The analysis focused entirely on comparing active exercise treatment data in relation to chronic non-specific lower back pain. The results of the study indicate that modes of exercise such as Pilates, resistance, aerobic, and stabilisation are the best types of exercise to undertake for lower back pain.

If you have ever wished to be in the mindset of a hundred millionaire, then join us today as Rob discusses his 6 ways to think, act, decide and behave like one. Learn how to master the mindset of a hundred millionaire by focusing on serving vast numbers of people, creating a fair exchange with your consumers whilst still maintaining a respectable profit margin as well as learning that by valuing yourself, the world will value you back allowing you to be full of gratitude and giving.  KEY TAKEAWAYS   In order to think and maybe even become a hundred millionaire, is to serve vast numbers of people and that is linked to solving big problems, the bigger the problem you solve the more people you attract. Serving vast numbers of people gives you vast amounts of income.   Create a fair exchange with your consumers. Fair exchange is the process whereby you receive fair profit for your products and services, and the consumer gets fair value. Find the sweet spot whereby you feel grateful that you have put a good product into the world and you have received a fair profit and they feel grateful because they felt the intrinsic value for what they have consumed.   You need to know that you are worth more and to value yourself. Theories state that the way to have your own self-worth is by adding value to other people because we are an interdependent species and we are all human beings. The real way to feel a good self-worth is to help others and create value into the world.   When you value yourself, the world values you and then the world rewards you. If you don't value yourself you're not going to charge fair exchange and you will become resentful and full of frustration instead of full of gratitude and giving.   Focus on money but obsess on value. You cannot master what you do not measure so it is okay to focus on money, it does not make you greedy, however if you obsess over the money you become a slave to it, you don't want to become a slave to money you want it to be a good servant to you. Obsess on value creation and production and what extra you can do yet still create a good profit margin. BEST MOMENTS   “People want their problems solved, so when you solve their problems they will exchange money for that.”   “That continual desire for improvement is vital within entrepreneurship and people who are looking to build sustained wealth.”   “If you're not doing anything for anyone you are not worth anything, because we all need each other.” VALUABLE RESOURCES https://robmoore.com/ ABOUT THE HOST Rob Moore is an author of 9 business books, 5 UK bestsellers, holds 3 world records for public speaking, entrepreneur, property investor, and property educator.

Rob is joined by entrepreneur, mentor and podcaster Spencer Lodge, recently voted as one of the most influential people in Dubai, UAE. Together, Rob and Spencer discuss how people continually judge others based on their social media profiles and the detriments this can cause, the importance of therapy and how talking to someone with no outside agenda can benefit your mindset and help you overcome your unresolved issues.   KEY TAKEAWAYS One thing that is pervasive on social media is that everybody is judging everybody. Social media users judge influencers or fellow users based on their content and how they perceive it. Judge someone when you have met them and spent a few hours on them, don't judge someone from afar. We all have unresolved issues. If you care too much about what people think this may make you weak, vulnerable and needy, on the contrary, if you don't care at all what people think of you that could make you a dictator, cold and uncompassionate. Asking for help and seeking advice from therapists can help you figure out who you are and why you are the way that you are.  People really do struggle when there are three areas of their life that have all gone wrong. If you are struggling in the three areas, focus on one area of your life to ‘fix', which may relieve some of your stress and problems and allow you to focus on improving or resolving the other two areas of your life you deem to be ‘failing.' When it comes to therapy, men, in particular, resist therapy more than they should. It doesn't matter how severe your problems maybe, you just need to find someone outside of your environment that can hear you and be objective about anything that they give back. Being bullied or receiving hate can motivate you to become successful and you may compare yourself and your success to that of your bullies'. On the one hand, it is really motivating to prove people wrong. However, on the other hand, it is a bit of a vacuous pursuit. You are who you and your life is your own and there may be some emptiness in continually hitting checkpoints of success to prove people wrong.   BEST MOMENTS “People who judge people for their religion and not for who they are as a person I think they are missing who the person actually is.” “If we all didn't judge someone until we spent a few hours with them, I think the world would be a much better place.” “My lowest times have been where I can't add value.”   VALUABLE RESOURCES https://robmoore.com/   ABOUT THE HOST Rob Moore is an author of 9 business books, 5 UK bestsellers, holds 3 world records for public speaking, entrepreneur, property investor, and property educator.

KEY TAKEAWAYS There's a 50/50 split for acute trauma injuries on a bike e.g. falling off and fracturing something, and then the chronic overuse and pain. Disc overload or disk anti-pressure can often cause the sciatic nerve troubles close to that area and they can refer down and into the legs. Not only is there mechanical pressure in the saddle but also the lower back, making many people fear cycling. There are specific stretches and techniques for cycling and mobility. Certain yoga poses such as ‘Pigeon Pose' whereby you stretch through your hips. As well as strengthening exercises like ‘Dead Bugs' which are an amazing core exercise whilst in a peddling movement, coupled with one-legged glute exercises. The majority of the issues related to lower bike pain in connection with bike fitting is that somebody can be too low in terms of the front end of the bike meaning they're putting excess stress onto the lower part of the back or they are too high on a road bike you have to have a balance between the two. If you are first getting into cycling, getting a bike fitted correctly to you will change your view on cycling. If you go cycling without this, and find it painful it will put you off. Pain is the biggest limiter of success on a bike as you are not able to do what you love to do. You can increase performance with a good bike fit. The reason you will be faster and perform is that if your muscles are in the right ranges then all your power from your glutes will be going into the pedal. If everything is working as it should, we can improve on things.   BEST MOMENTS “People think that's just a normal feeling, that is just cycling but it is not, you don't need to be feeling this stuff.” “These are going to be invaluable to strengthen you off of the bike as well.” “Discomfort will be the thing that limits you the most.”   VALUABLE RESOURCES The Back Pain Podcast Free Sciatica guide: www.thebackpainpodcast.com  John Thomson The McKenzie Institute website   Links To Exercises (valuable resources) https://www.google.co.uk/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=&ved=2ahUKEwjD6fOP5tjpAhWiVBUIHXpaDdwQFjASegQIAhAB&url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.yogajournal.com%2Fpractice%2Fpigeon-pose&usg=AOvVaw1ZkTLlhHMLjt__eqJFXZsB https://www.google.co.uk/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=&ved=2ahUKEwjE95uc5tjpAhUOTRUIHQH_DjkQFjAYegQIAhAB&url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.coachmag.co.uk%2Fabs-workouts%2F6384%2Fthe-dead-bug-exercise&usg=AOvVaw1rLBC515ZAVnvhY62ZGzsU https://www.google.co.uk/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=&ved=2ahUKEwiv7aio5tjpAhVQZxUIHVCABXsQwqsBMB96BAgLEAQ&url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.youtube.com%2Fwatch%3Fv%3Db9bHy3ojQWA&usg=AOvVaw2O3Ki5ZxGpAyeL1Lm3vPC5     ABOUT THE HOSTS Dave Elliot Dave is the owner of Advanced Chiropractic, a chain of Chiropractic and massage therapy clinics in Essex, UK.

Do you ever wonder what it takes to become extremely wealthy? Well, through years of extensive research, Rob has discovered the traits that all of the wealthy people have in common. Tune in today to find out what these traits are and how you can follow them in order to pursue wealth and riches for yourself. Learn how to create a fair exchange, repeatedly overcome challenges and attract wealth to your environment.   KEY TAKEAWAYS A common feature in each wealthy person is the commitment they have to their mission. They want to disrupt industries and change them for good. Criticism or praise does not phase or distract them along their journeys. Creating a fair exchange environment. You need to create a sustainable profit some of which you can reinvest into innovation and new products otherwise your competitors will out-innovate you. The consumer will have gratitude to you for your prices and appreciate the fair exchange. Many wealthy people believe and know they're destined for service of vast numbers of people. The more people you serve and accept the challenges that come along with this, the more wealthy you are going to grow. In the pursuit of wealth and riches, each wealthy person will have repeated challenges. When the challenge is overcome, a bigger one will present itself. They do not focus on small problems, but they focus on meaningful problems. The wealthiest people create a greater GP and economic flow. This is why hoarders don't usually get so wealthy if you hoard money you are actually restricting the flow, which is the anti purpose of money. The more money flows the more it grows.   BEST MOMENTS “People will hate about you, the very things that are great about you' “If someone has opposing value to you, they will have a completely different view of the world that you” “Wealth is money, but it is also well being.”   VALUABLE RESOURCES https://robmoore.com/ bit.ly/Robsupporter   ABOUT THE HOST Rob Moore is an author of 9 business books, 5 UK bestsellers, holds 3 world records for public speaking, entrepreneur, property investor, and property educator.

In this week's show, Colin chats to fellow podcaster, and health and safety expert, Richard Collins about the ways in which new media, such as podcasts, can be used to communicate with, and engage with, workforces. Engagement is sometimes incredibly difficult to improve. Traditional forms of communication seem to be largely ignored, so maybe it's time to think of new, more interesting ways of talking to our workforces. Colin and Richard's conversation will certainly inspire you to think differently. KEY TAKEAWAYS Podcasting is proving to be a valuable means of communication for firms looking to communicate in new ways to their workforce. This solves many of the engagement issues that companies seem to have.   Email blasts, newsletters, or notices on bulletin boards, are often ignored and sometimes actively avoided by staff. New forms of communication and engagement are essential steps forward for all businesses.   The prospect of truly helping people is a large driving factor in Richard's constant desire to do better, and to improve.   The world of today is all about communication, and broadening our reach when it comes to networking. Both Richard and Colin have greatly increased their own knowledge by talking to people from all over the world, and from different cultures.   New media presents its own challenges. We need to find new ways of telling our stories, or there's little point utilising these unique channels and forms of communication.   Dynamic advertising is a new system that allows for contemporary messages to be implanted into content that's already been sent out into the wild, meaning that content is essentially evergreen.   Smaller businesses have tighter budgets, which means that H&S solutions must be more creative. Larger businesses tend to be more standardised in their approach.   Both Colin and Richard acknowledge the need to engage with a wide range of people in the business hierarchy for their podcasts. This gives a better overview of the way companies work, and the different needs of different sectors.   BEST MOMENTS ‘People are really interested to hear people they know, speaking' ‘Why wait for the accident?' ‘Communication os fundamental' 'There's a reason why people weren't opening the emails' ‘You create an environment that's safe but challenging' VALUABLE RESOURCES The Interesting Health And Safety Podcast - https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/training-competency-creating-effective-plan-process/id1467771449?i=1000452692837  Safeti Podcast - https://safeti.com/series/the-safeti-environment-health-and-safety-podcast/ Safeti - https://safeti.com ABOUT THE HOST Colin Nottage ‘Making health and safety as important as everything else we do.'

Success is not achieved easily, you have to sweat for it and therapy is the key to achieving it. Therapy is personal development, the control of your emotions, the increase in your self-worth and the driver behind success. Tune in to this honest episode of the Disruptive Entrepreneur and discover Rob's reasons for therapy, how you can overcome your fear, defeat what's holding you back and use this advice to make 2020 your year. KEY TAKEAWAYS Success is not achieved easily, one has to sweat for it, and for you to achieve it, you need to do a couple of things and one of them is personal development. One of the most beneficial personal development things that you can do is having therapy. Having a therapist does not necessarily mean that you are broken, you can do therapy when you are feeling lonely or when you feel that there are some things that you need to tell someone who will listen to you, someone who will not judge you but someone who will help you face your problems. Do not listen to people who judge you when they hear that you are having therapy. When you listen to those kinds of people, weakness strikes because you will start judging yourself and this restricts you from thinking straight thus you will only be hearing success from others because you will never be successful. A therapist is someone who you pay to listen to you and you need this type of person because you need to have those deep conversations and you can't have these types of conversations with people close to you, work colleagues or friends because they will always cut you in the middle of that conversation when they feel they need to add something they relate with. You first need to know yourself before you can be successful because you need to face your fears, maybe they are fears from your childhood and unless you talk them out to someone who will listen to you and guide you on how to face them, you will always be stuck and this will not help you in achieving success. The work you do on yourself and your personal development, your mindset, your emotional management, and control, how you feel about yourself and your self worth, that is all vital to your success. That is the reason you need a therapist. Believe in having mentors and masterminds and getting coaches and having a therapist, getting help from those that have been there and done it is the only best thing you can do to achieve success. Few people say you don't need mentors, you don't need to get help. You got to figure it out yourself. How do you figure out the baggage you had as a child, things that maybe you lacked, whether it's love from our mother or father, or some kind of abuse or loneliness or extreme challenge or significant emotional event? That creates these voids and these pains in us. That's hard to figure out yourself. You need a therapist to listen to you and guide you on how to face those fears and after this, success will come your way. BEST MOMENTS “People perceive that you have to be broken to have a therapist.” “99% of the things you worry about never actually happen.” “The skillset without the mindset will leave you upset.” “Believe in getting help from those that have been there and done it.” “Always say to yourself that this is me, this is who I am and it's okay.” “Without each other, we couldn't survive as a race.” “Your voids create your values, the pains and the gaps and holes in your soul drive what you want and what you shoot for and what you find most important in your life.” “If you don't risk anything, you risk everything.” VALUABLE RESOURCES https://robmoore.com/ ABOUT THE HOST Rob Moore is an author of 9 business books, 5 UK bestsellers, holds 3 world records for public speaking, entrepreneur, property investor and property educator.

Rob talks to Rob Burgess of Head For Points, a leading UK expert in frequent flyer miles and loyalty schemes, who's joined this fascinating conversation to talk about the genesis of Head For Points, which was built upon a strategy to effectively utilise the air miles sitting dormant in the UK, and the ways in which it can help you to make the most of the miles you're accumulating. Sign Up For MSOPI Here: https://bit.ly/msopi-nomad KEY TAKEAWAYS Rob's background was in banking, and after accumulating a wealth of frequent flyer miles, began to wonder what exactly to do with them.  There are five million people in the UK with an active Avios account, but only five thousand people who have a Flyer Talk account. This is quite a discrepancy, which proves that only a small percentage use their Avios account effectively. Avios is the British Airways frequent flyers currency, which originated in 2015. It is viewed and used as a currency earned by flying through British Airways and its partners. There are certain strategies you should use in order to maximise your frequent flyer miles. Switching your credit cards to Avios friendly services and booking hotels through specific portals will see to it that you receive the maximum amount of points. BA is the only airline, globally, which guarantees to release a certain number of seats for redemption; two business class and four economy class seats each flight. In order to rely on those seats, you are required to book. Reward Flight Finder screen-scrapes the BA website, pulls out all Avios flight inventory, and presents it in a very easy to search format. More importantly, you can set up alerts. If you have a BA Gold Card, you can have seats on any flight with Avios. Rob talks to many Gold Card holders and they don't seem to be aware of this incredible benefit. Remember to shop for deals, too. Don't rely solely on air miles. Airlines hold sales on tickets that can far outstrip saving made by using air miles. Keep your eyes open and shop around.   BEST MOMENTS ‘People talk in what looks like secret code' ‘For many people, a couple of nights in five-star hotel is just as attractive'  ‘You shouldn't value something at more than you're prepared to pay for it' VALUABLE RESOURCES The Property Nomads Website Buy To Let: How To Get Started – By Rob Smallbone (Amazon) www.rewardflightfinder.com Head For Points - https://www.headforpoints.com Rob Burgess LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/headforpoints/?originalSubdomain=uk   ABOUT THE HOST Rob Smallbone, Rachael Taylor and Matt McSherry, the hosts of The Property Nomads Podcast, are on a global mission to guide your success.

Do you want to become a master negotiator? Do you want to secure property deals and grow your business? If the answer is yes, this episode is for you. Your host, Kevin McDonnell interviews world renowned negotiation expert and best-selling author of bare-knuckle negotiation, Simon Hazeldine. Kevin and Simon discuss the key skills you need to have to become a master negotiator, mistakes to avoid and techniques to follow to ensure you end up with the deal you deserve. KEY TAKEAWAYS What do you see as the key skills of a master negotiator? Being a good negotiator is a critical part of your skill set, have a successful property portfolio, property investment, investment business. What makes what makes a really good negotiator is research shows, for example, a good negotiators gather twice as much information as they give, they focus a lot of time, a lot of efforts, a lot of energy in doing what I call getting inside the other person's head and understanding things from their point of view. Good negotiators are also very well planned and prepared. Make sure that people are thoroughly planned and prepared, that they follow a planning process that increases your confidence that helps you consider options before they come up. A good negotiator doesn't do every deal and a good negotiator does every deal that makes good commercial sense. Knowing when to walk is another important thing for people. Patience is also a good thing to be acting unhurriedly even if you are in a hurry, remaining as calm and objective as you possibly can because emotions can obviously flare, human beings are very emotional creatures. Be very polite and respectful is also a good thing. A good negotiator does less what is called irritating behaviours, finger pointing, aggression, sarcasm and insults. Keeping it professional is an important thing to do, particularly if you want to be doing repeat business with that individual or that organization. Good negotiators have the ability to step into their shoes of a seller and see it from the seller's point of view. Price is a factor in any negotiation. Usually, it is very rarely if ever, the only factor and if it's just got narrowed down to price, you might be missing other opportunities to add value to the deal for the other parts. It is always about the people, the people who own that property that you want to buy must be willing to also sell it to you or want to do a joint venture with you. If you find out what's most important to people and then you show them how you can help them get what's most important to them, that's selling a negotiation in a nutshell. Solve their problem instead of trying to buy their house. What are the biggest mistakes people make in negotiating? Moving too quickly to sort of doing the bargaining, how much are we going to pay and then that they don't spend enough time planning and preparing. They don't spend enough time understanding the perspective of the other person. New property investors, property developers are sometimes very anxious to get some notches, some numbers and get some deals done and sometimes pursue a deal far too long when they should walk away because they feel nothing's happening and it's not working. If your first five deals that you sign up roll pretty badly, you're going to have those bad boys in your portfolio for a while. Definitely move fast but move faster when the deal is right. Tips for getting better results in a negotiation. Do your homework and do your research. Knowledge is power, walk the streets, have a look, get to know the areas, monitor things, watch what's happening. Ask more questions, do less talking and more listening. Find out if you can construct something that is going to meet what that person needs, solve their problems and take away their pain. BEST MOMENTS “People think that negotiation is the sexy exciting cut and thrust, but that's only going to be sexy and exciting if you've done your homework in advance.” “The more time you invest in the deal, the harder psychologically it is to get out it.” “Neuroscience research shows that 95% of the influence on our decisions is from more emotional primitive regions of the brain.” “Average man or woman in the street thinks negotiation is open high, drop down, meet me halfway and back and forth but it's much more than that.” “Empathy is different to sympathy, empathy just means I get how you're feeling, I understand how you're feeling, I understand why this is important to you.” “Word of mouth is very powerful and also a very bad form of marketing, depending on what's being said about you.” “Understand that if you feel a bit uncomfortable, that's called being human and that's really normal and that's not a bad thing.” “The more you learn, the more you earn.” “The more desperate you are, the worst deal you will do.” “If you don't ask, you have rejected yourself.” “You make your own luck through the work and the effort and the focus that you put in.” VALUABLE RESOURCES simonhazeldine.com https://kevinmcdonnell.co.uk/ ABOUT THE HOST Kevin McDonnell is a Speaker, Author, Mentor & Professional Property Investor.

Register your interest in Serviced Accommodation Discovery Day here, and a member of our team will get back to you to confirm your place at your preferred date.     In this very special episode, become a voyeur as Kevin delivers a live mentoring call to Gurang, a standard landlord who owns buy-to-let properties. Gurang's long-term plan is to move into the world of Serviced Accommodation, and is satisfied with the advice he's received so far. But he wants to understand certain SA management aspects and strategies better. Listen in as Kevin shares with Gurang the secrets that have made him so successful.   KEY TAKEAWAYS SA Management Kevin advises that it's way more beneficial to learn how to run serviced accommodation yourself on a few properties, before taking the leap into SA management on a grander scale.   What's the best strategy for finding Rent-To-SA properties? Gurang favours the idea of enquiring through letting agents to find properties that might be suitable, but Kevin explains how this can sometimes lead to unnecessary barriers to entry. Cultivating relationships with letting agents is valuable, but can take time. It's sometimes best to go directly to landlords. Initially, it's wise to build a stable of properties before speaking to letting agents, so that a leap of faith on their part is not such a requirement. They can see that you're already up and running. Letting agents are far more attracted to established credibility. Gurang favours this approach because of the ready-made pool of properties, as well as the fact that letting agents will have already determined the reliability of a landlord. But sometimes the perception of these things is not in keeping with reality. Landlords, who are often trying to avoid using letting agents, are the most likely people to have tenant issues due to not carrying out the necessary checks, and having no middleman to resolve disputes. If these landlords can be approached privately by those seeking Rent-To-SA properties, and providing guarantees, it can lead to a much better deal on both sides.   Capital Investment to start? This can range from zero to anything. Sometimes it's possible to earn even before you've started, as per an example from Kevin's own history. If the property needs very little in terms of investment, then it can be practically zero. The flip side can be that the property may need rental payments, a deposit, tenant referencing, furnishing or refurbishment. The takeaway here is that every deal is different.   Are there any clear advantages to accumulating a few Serviced Accommodation properties before you turn to managing others? The benefits of this approach are incalculable,. By setting up and running a few, you'll have the necessary infrastructure ready to take on others if you're approached to manage SA properties. The profits might not be as much in management only, but you'll simply be plugging these properties into your own systems. You should, by the time you begin to manage others, have cleaners ready to work, laundry services in place, and accounting systems that facilitate your business.   Juggling full-time employment? Gurang has a young family, and is very interested in the kind of time commitment required to kick off his venture. In Kevin's opinion, people can become “busy fools” if they don't prepare properly, or learn how to leverage. Having the right support network is essential. One strategy is to acquire the property and pass it on to a management company straight away. The profits are smaller, but the workload is far less. It's always about successfully outsourcing, growing and scaling in a way you can manage, and this is only possible by leveraging other people. Another strategy would be source the entire deal on to someone else who wants to run serviced accommodations. This can be attractive as you don't have to be operating in that area of the country yourself. These deals can be done nationwide. This is why Kevin also suggests making sure that you are fully trained in due diligence. You'll find deal packaging a whole lot easier in terms of selling, but also in buying. You'll be able to read the contents of a packaged deal yourself.   What are the ideal qualities required in order to become successful? Kevin identifies tenacity, enthusiasm, persistence, drive and determination as the key qualities required, no matter what the strategy. Leaving your comfort zone is not an option. It's a necessity.   BEST MOMENTS ‘People can become “busy fools” if they don't prepare properly' ‘Quitters never win and winners never quit' ‘If you want a different life badly enough, then you'll do everything necessary' ‘Focus on what you want out of life. Use a vision board. Make sure you are focussing on it always' ‘You can make money or you can make excuses.

In today's episode of The Steven Sulley Study discover why the fear of loss and the desire to gain are two of the most important factors when it comes to selling your product or service and closing a deal. Understand the reasons why people end up buying products and the key reasons why entrepreneurs focus on appealing to their customers fear of loss. KEY TAKEAWAYS   The reasons most people end up purchasing products.   Number one reason why people are purchasing the products is the fear of loss. The fear of loss is the main thing that causes people to do or use when it comes down to a parting with money. When you have a chunk amount of money in your bank account and you're fearing for your money not to be lost in cases of a bank collapse, then you may decide to purchase a product that may be worth a lot of money and a product that may never depreciate in value. This can be to some extent art. Art is fast becoming a very good appreciating asset. People now are taking their money out of banking institutions and they're putting into areas which are known as safe havens or somewhere to protect their money. The second reason why people buy products is the desire to gain. Many people also buy products to keep them, and mostly they will buy products which do not depreciate with time but appreciate in value with time.   The aim is to sell that product at a higher price than when they purchased it. This is a kind investment as an alternative to keeping your money in the bank which is not bringing you any profit. What you need to do as an entrepreneur or a businessman for you to make huge sales in your business is only hit home on a couple of key points when selling to customers, the next step is simple, appealing to their fear of loss or their desire to gain.     BEST MOMENTS   “People now are taking their money out and they're putting into areas which are known as safe havens or somewhere to protect their money.”   “Appeal to the fear of loss or the desire to gain of customers for you to make sales.” “Be happy never content.”     VALUABLE RESOURCES http://www.instagram.com/sulley.steven ABOUT THE HOST The Steven Sulley Study is my take on success.
