Episode Summary In this episode, Spencer Shaw and Kim Butler break down one of the most misunderstood areas of personal finance: interest rates. Using insights from the book Busting the Interest Rate Lies, they challenge common beliefs about mortgages, debt, and financial decision-making. Kim introduces the concept of the "8% rule" as a practical benchmark for evaluating loan rates and explains why obsessing over small rate differences can lead to poor decisions. The conversation goes deeper into opportunity cost, the time value of money, and why a 30-year mortgage—contrary to popular advice—can be the most efficient strategy. They also warn against overcomplicating finances, chasing short-term gains, and falling for misleading financial products like first-position home equity strategies. Ultimately, the episode reframes financial "peace of mind" and emphasizes disciplined, long-term thinking over emotional decision-making.

What happens when a hospitality professional stumbles into golf and ends up leading the charge for the sport's evolution across an entire continent? In this episode, host Colin Weston sits down with his "golf friend," Renate Roeleveld, CEO of the Golf Course Association of Europe (GCAE). Renate brings an infectious energy and a unique perspective on how Europe is redefining golf - from battling climate change with robotic mowers to creating "Fabulous Fridays" to get more women on the course. Colin and Renate take a deep dive into the industry's hottest topics: moving beyond the traditional 18-hole mindset, using tech to solve labour shortages, and why listening is the most powerful tool for inclusion. If you've ever wondered how golf can survive and thrive by embracing change, this conversation is your playbook. Key takeaways in this episode with Renate that you will discover: The "Short Format" Revolution: Why golf courses need to stop defining golfers by 18 holes and start embracing par-3 courses and simulators to attract busy families and multi-sport athletes. Hospitality is the New Currency: Renate explains how her background in hotel management taught her that golf is a perishable "experience" business, and why women are naturally positioned to lead in this space. Data-Driven Sustainability: From robotic mowing to pesticide-free maintenance, European courses are being forced by regulation (and high energy prices) to innovate. Learn how greenskeepers are turning into data analysts to keep courses playable, sustainable and profitable. Are you more of a watcher than a listener?

Three Memorable Quotes from Renate: On changing the game for women: "Women and men are equal, but we are not the same. When you realize the differences in how we experience golf, you can work your way around the small hurdles - and then it's actually quite easy." On the value of golf real estate: "As Jay of the NGCOA nicely put it: the dirt is worth more than the business. We have to do a better job showing what golf facilities offer to the community and the environment." On resilience: "There are highs and lows when running. If you just keep going, focusing on what you're doing and putting your best foot forward, you will make it to whatever finish line there is."

Summary In this solo episode, Gary Pinkerton reflects on his recent trip to Sydney and Queenstown, sharing personal observations on culture, freedom, and economic systems. He then shifts into the core topic: advanced tax reduction strategies for high-income earners and business owners.

In this episode of Millions Were Made, Jessica Marx welcomes Natalie Hunter, transformational leadership coach and motivational speaker, for an in-depth conversation on what it truly means to lead in today's small-business and entrepreneurial landscape.As companies scale, many founders find themselves overwhelmed, overextended, and unintentionally becoming the bottleneck in their own organization. Despite strong vision and strategy, growth begins to stall when leadership patterns rooted in fear, avoidance, or over-control take hold.Natalie introduces a powerful lens for leadership transformation by examining energy, behavior, and awareness, and how these elements shape team performance, trust, and execution. Together, Jessica and Natalie explore why leadership challenges rarely stem from capability gaps—and instead emerge from unaddressed patterns that quietly undermine autonomy and confidence within teams.This episode offers a grounded, practical exploration of how founders can shift from reactive leadership to intentional influence, creating environments where both people and businesses thrive.You will learn:Why leadership identity matters, regardless of title or company sizeHow founder energy directly impacts team behavior and decision-makingThe common avoidance patterns that prevent organizations from scalingWhy awareness alone does not create transformationHow fear-based leadership limits autonomy and initiativeFrameworks for having clear, compassionate, and effective conversationsHow to establish trust without sacrificing accountabilityWhy energetic stability is a non-negotiable skill for leaders in 2026 and beyondNatalie also shares insights from her Transformational Leadership Skills framework, outlining how leaders can increase self-awareness, shift entrenched patterns, and create lasting change across their organizations.If you are a founder or executive navigating growth, complexity, or leadership fatigue, this conversation provides a strategic and human-centered approach to leading with clarity, confidence, and purpose.Tune in now!Mini-timeline00:00–04:33 — Introduction to Natalie Hunter and the evolving definition of leadership 04:34–07:54 — Leadership identity and its influence on organizational culture 07:55–11:09 — Understanding energetic impact and the ripple effect of leadership 11:10–13:28 — Founder overwhelm and operating in reactive modes 13:29–16:50 — Avoidance patterns and fear-based leadership behaviors 16:51–19:48 — Micromanagement, control, and unintended consequences 19:49–23:00 — How leader energy shapes team confidence and performance 23:01–24:57 — Trust, autonomy, and the founder's role in team development 24:58–27:48 — Desire versus readiness for meaningful change 27:49–29:49 — Leadership patterns and their impact beyond the business 29:50–33:01 — Navigating difficult conversations with intention 33:02–36:15 — Creating psychological safety while maintaining standards 36:16–41:14 — Leading through curiosity, clarity, and compassion 41:15–43:11 — Real-world leadership example and applied learning 43:12–46:23 — Overview of the Transformational Leadership Skills training 46:24–End — Final reflections and where to connect with Natalie HunterResourcesFollow @millionsweremade on Instagram for frameworks + strategy tipsTransformational Leadership Skills Live WorkshopConnect with Jessica:Instagram: @millionsweremade | @thejessicamarxWork with Jessica: Tailored PremierWebsite: Millions Were MadeConnect with Natalie Hunter:Website: https://agency.personalbrand.com/natalie-hunter/Website: http://nataliehunterlive.comInstagram: https://instagram.com/nataliehunterliveLinkedIn: http://www.linkedin.com/in/nataliehunterlive

What if embracing uncertainty was the key to unlocking your client's greatest growth In today's episode, we explore a topic that touches all of us, uncertainty. It's a word we hear often in coaching sessions, whether it's said outright or disguised in phrases like “I don't know”, “I'm not sure”, or “I feel stuck.” We recorded this episode because uncertainty seems to be everywhere; globally, personally, professionally. As coaches, it's our job to help clients sit with it, understand it, and grow through it. We began with the idea that uncertainty is not a single emotion but a cluster of emotions; fear, anxiety, sadness, even frustration. As coaches, we've learnt that uncertainty often shows up when clients face a decision they don't feel equipped to make not because the options are unclear, but because the emotional load of making a choice is too heavy. Clients don't just want a solution, they want clarity, safety, and a way to process the messiness of what's going on. And we unpacked how coaching conversations can become a safe space where the client reconnects with what they do know; values, beliefs, and what they're sure they don't want so they can start building from there. Sometimes that clarity starts with the simplest of things: “I know I don't want this job anymore.” That statement alone can become a foundation, a piece of scaffolding that helps the client begin to navigate what's next. We also reflected on our own uncertainty as coaches, not knowing where a session will lead, how to hold silence, and how to support clients without providing answers. It's in these moments that coaching maturity is revealed through our ability to sit with the unknown and stay grounded in presence. Ultimately, this episode is a deep dive into what it means to be human in uncertain times, and how coaches can support clients through those spaces; not by solving uncertainty, but by helping them develop the emotional capacity to be in it. If today's conversation has sparked reflection about how you hold uncertainty for yourself or your clients, come and explore our Emotions Coaching Practitioner Programme. It's where we go deeper into the emotional foundations of coaching and support you to grow your confidence in even the most uncertain coaching conversations www.igcompany.co.uk/emotionscoaching Key Lessons Learnt: Uncertainty is a layered emotional experience, often masking feelings like fear, sadness, frustration, or self-doubt. Coaching uncertainty means working with both emotion and decision-making; helping clients find clarity, even if just about what they don't want. Creating scaffolding from what clients do know gives them something to stand on in the fog. Self-trust is central exploring the client's relationship to trust, doubt, and belief unlocks agency. Uncertainty often reveals underlying identity shifts or life transitions, and coaching provides a powerful space for processing them. Coaches must also embrace uncertainty, sitting in silence, letting go of “having a plan,” and allowing the unknown to unfold naturally. Client language reveals discomfort with uncertainty, especially when they seek excessive reassurance or avoid decision-making. 5 Coaching Questions for Coaching Uncertainty: What does uncertainty feel like for you in this moment? What do you know for sure right now, no matter how small? Where in your life do you most crave certainty, and why? What strengths or past experiences remind you that you've handled uncertainty before? What would trusting yourself look like in this situation? Timestamps: 00:00 – 02:00 – Why we're talking about uncertainty 02:01 – 05:30 – What is uncertainty and how do clients express it? 05:31 – 08:45 – Emotional foundations: Fear, sadness, anxiety, and powerlessness 08:46 – 12:20 – Exploring decision-making when everything feels unclear 12:21 – 15:35 – Creating “scaffolding” from what clients do know 15:36 – 19:00 – Holding uncertainty in the coaching relationship itself 19:01 – 22:40 – Signs of discomfort with uncertainty in everyday client language 22:41 – 26:00 – Self-trust, strengths and belief work to support navigation 26:01 – 29:45 – Identity, values and uncertainty through life transitions 29:46 – 33:00 – Capacity, wellbeing and when uncertainty signals burnout 33:01 – 36:10 – Coach maturity and your relationship with uncertainty 36:11 – End – Final reflections and next steps Keywords: Coaching through uncertainty, How to coach clients facing uncertainty, Coaching emotional decision-making, Helping clients trust themselves, Coaching tools for uncertain times, Self-trust in coaching, Coaching transitions and change, Working with client doubt, Coaching when outcomes are unclear, Coaching for clarity and confidence,   Links: Take the Coaching Course Quiz: www.mycoachingcourse.com COACHING TRAINING LEVEL 5 https://www.igcompany.co.uk/l5-diploma COACHING TRAINING LEVEL 7 https://www.igcompany.co.uk/l7-diploma Purchase our bestselling book ”Deciding to Coach”: https://amzn.to/3UvUe9r Join The Coaching Crowd Community on Facebook https://www.facebook.com/groups/TheCoachingCrowd/ In Good Company (UK) https://www.igcompany.co.uk/ Check out our YouTube Channel https://bit.ly/378rY9a

Have you ever wondered how coaching tools could completely transform the way you parent? This episode is an honest look at the realities of parenting, the guilt we carry, the mistakes we make, and the tools coaching gives us to navigate it all. We're not perfect parents, and we're not trying to be. But through coaching, we've found more compassion for ourselves, more connection with our children, and more courage to parent in alignment with who we are. As coaches and as parents, we often find ourselves reflecting on how deeply intertwined those two identities have become. In this episode, we explore how coaching has shaped the way we parent, and how those tools have helped us not only survive the hard days, but show up more consciously, compassionately, and confidently for our children. We dive into how self-awareness, developed through coaching, allows us to notice our triggers, pause before reacting, and respond in ways that align with our values rather than our overwhelm. we shared stories of bedtime meltdowns and spaghetti bolognese disasters, and how coaching has taught me to stop, breathe, and ask myself: What's really going on for me in this moment? We talked about how coaching allows us to support our children in developing emotional literacy, self-awareness, and resilience. Rather than jumping in to fix things when our children face challenges at school or with friends, we're now more likely to ask thoughtful questions, ones that invite them to explore their feelings, make decisions, and develop their own solutions. We also explored the value of affirmations and belief work with our kids, how just shifting internal messaging from “I can't do this” to “I can do this” has helped our children succeed in big and small ways, like learning to ride a bike or preparing for cross country races.

Kids don't need fixing, they need listening: Coaching encourages curiosity and open questions that help children work through problems and feelings. Beliefs shape behaviour: Teaching kids to reframe limiting beliefs into empowering ones builds confidence and resilience. Modelling matters: The way we treat ourselves teaches our children how to care for their own wellbeing.
