In this episode, Joel, and Andy talk about success. Why it looks different for everyone and why some people never stop setting themselves new goals and striving to grow and succeed. They discuss why success for them is not all about earning more money. Then, explain how they ensure that they are clear on what their purpose and goals are. As well as how to stop wasting energy on things that do not help you along the path to success.KEY TAKEAWAYS Understand what success looks like for you and pursue that, not what society traditionally tells you success is. Think of goals as steps. Break them down into daily, weekly, and quarterly tasks and milestones. Setting up 90-day action plans is especially effective. Don´t waste energy worrying about things you can´t change or influence.  Tagging a reward onto a goal is an effective way to incentivise yourself. Sometimes the journey itself is the reward. Focus on attaining the things that help you to achieve more, rather than on buying material goods just for the sake of it. BEST MOMENTS‘If your only goal is to earn more money … I don't ‘think you will ever be contented. ´‘Worrying doesn't solve anything … acknowledge you are worried, then, ask - is there anything I can do to solve it? if there isn´t focus that energy on something more positive.'‘the more joy you can find in the basics, the better life becomes.'VALUABLE RESOURCESThe Codebreak Club: https://www.facebook.com/groups/codebreakclub/about/Stay Hungry podcast seriesStay Hungry Bestselling BookMarketing coaching: www.andyandjoel.comDone-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. After all, getting lots of 'likes' on your Facebook page ain't gonna make your boat go faster.

In this episode, Joel sits down with Carla Reeves who is a coach and mentor that helps hyper achievers who want to build a business without negatively impacting their personal lives. She helps them to find and maintain balance. Carla explains how her own experience led to her pursuing this passion. During the podcast, she shares valuable strategies and tips that anyone can use to help them to live a bold, authentic life that is aligned with their values. Something that automatically leads to success in both their personal and business lives. She explains how to be the entrepreneur of your own life (life-preneurship), which includes learning to use the skills that make you successful at work to achieve success in your personal life.   KEY TAKEAWAYS Often, friction within relationships goes hand in hand with success. But it does not need to be this way. In the podcast, Carla explains how to avoid this situation. Many people keep bumping up against the same barriers in life, repeating the same mistakes. Most people have a survival model they developed in crisis, which is OK. But it is not healthy to keep using that model when you are not in crisis. Everyone has habits. How you treat people, use money, what you eat etc. That´s not always bad. But as life changes your habits also need to change. Journalling enables you to be honest about what you think and feel. The more you write freely the easier it is to also be your true self in life. Journalling empties the trash. It gets rid of the noise, which builds up in your head. Writing down what you want to achieve from a conversation, meeting or activity is incredibly powerful. Putting your thoughts down on paper slows you down enough to see what is really important. Play, adventure and relaxation all create fuel to help you to work better, so make time for them. Before you do something, ask yourself – Does this align with the life I want to create? Doing this acts as a filter which keeps your personal life aligned with your values and you on track. When you get your thinking, your behaviour and your actions all working in the same direction with your values, amazing things start to happen.   BEST MOMENTS ‘I had become a master of making everything look good on the outside. But I didn´t know how to take care of the inside. ´ ‘The first piece of work I do with people is to uncover what I call their survival model.' ‘The secret to confidence is kind of realising that nobody has it. Everybody´s brain is trying to protect them.'   EPISODE RESOURCES Website: https://carlareeves.com/ Carla´s podcast Differently: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/differently/id1546761001   VALUABLE RESOURCES The Codebreak Club: https://www.facebook.com/groups/codebreakclub/about/ Stay Hungry podcast series Stay Hungry Bestselling Book Marketing coaching: www.andyandjoel.com Done-for-you marketing: www.codebreak.co.uk     If 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.   After all, getting lots of 'likes' on your Facebook page ain't gonna make your boat go faster.

She was a master at making everything look good on the outside but inside felt empty. Carla was consumed by work that she loved.   In short, she was out of balance but didn't understand why or how to change. Carla knew there had to be a better way of doing life. So, she took a deep look into what was running her life. The choices she made after that point changed everything in the most amazing way.   She made it a mission to clean her life up from the inside out. Since then, she has been doing this work in her own life for over 2 decades.   Carla´s life's work is to ignite possibility and equip people with the mindsets and toolsets to create meaningful, productive and fulfilling everyday lives.   ABOUT THE HOSTS   Joel Stone Joel Stone is a marketer and disciple of business strategy.

In this episode, Joel sits down to talk with Cordelia Kate who describes herself as a “rebellious business” coach. She helps people who don't want to follow the standard 9 to 5 path to start their own successful online businesses. Doing so in a sustainable way that keeps them moving forwards forevermore.She and Joel discuss how to start a business that grows fast, becomes profitable and is sustainable. They talk through launching products quickly, learning about your audience, tapping into your network, and leveraging social media.KEY TAKEAWAYS Entrepreneurial rebels have the courage and tenacity to really be themselves. Striving to fit in zaps your energy, and makes you miserable, which means it drags you down and holds you back. Take action. You only gain clarity about who you are, your products and your audience by taking action. Start selling quickly, test things. Once you know what the market wants, build your end product. Being yourself includes choosing clients that are happy with who you are and the way you work. Sell a one-to-one service first. Use what you learn from doing that to build a course, or other type of product. Organic marketing can take you further than you think. Cordelia shares examples of how to leverage it. Get systems in place that nurture people fast. BEST MOMENTS‘You don't need to stand out, you just need to be yourself. It is scary and an act of rebellion because you´re going against everything you were taught. ´‘Put stuff out to the market to test it to see if anyone around you is interested in what you have to offer.'‘Advertise on Eventbrite.'EPISODE RESOURCESWebsite: https://join.rebelliousbusiness.com/clubFacebook: https://m.facebook.com/groups/rebellious.business.networkEvents: https://www.facebook.com/events/httpszoomusmeetingregisteruzioceipqtksdo2bjqj2llyg4x6aodbhxg/the-rebellious-business-network/784211898652731/VALUABLE RESOURCESThe Codebreak Club: https://www.facebook.com/groups/codebreakclub/about/Stay Hungry podcast seriesStay Hungry Bestselling BookMarketing coaching: www.andyandjoel.comDone-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. After all, getting lots of 'likes' on your Facebook page ain't gonna make your boat go faster.

In this episode, Joel speaks to Captain Hoff about the role getting your business model right plays in growth. He is a venture capitalist and author who co-founded the global start-up accelerator – Founder space. Captain Hoff shares several strategies that any company can use to provide so much value for their customers that they are compelled to come back and buy repeatedly.   KEY TAKEAWAYS Most entrepreneurs do not think too deeply about what business model they are going to use. When you get a customer, never let them go. Lock them in and keep them buying from you. There are several ways to lock customers which are discussed in the podcast. Amazon Prime is a notable example of how to lock customers in. Reviews create value for everyone. Create a value moat around your business. Continually look at your business and ask what can we do better? Technology means you can always improve things.   BEST MOMENTS ‘Getting your business model right is really critical. ´ ‘Give your customers even more value for sticking with you, value they can't get elsewhere.' ‘Don´t build products or services, build an ecosystem.'

AL chats with Laura, creator of The Shropshire GOAT, an online magazine all about the fine county that we live in. Hailing from Leicester, Laura has only been in Shropshire for a few weeks and is beginning her journey of discovery. Offering a unique, outsider's perspective, Laura has found that Shropshire is such a vibrant county that there is almost too much to choose from! Laura's specialty is beer, having written about it for such a long time. So it's much to her surprise that Laura has found lots of exciting independent breweries dotted about the county. There really is so much to Laura, that I don't want to spoil it so, listen in! Sounds like this is going to be quite the adventure, I'd like to wish Laura and The Shropshire GOAT the best of luck. We've definitely found a great new friend who we can catch up with from time to time.

In this episode, Joel, and Andy talk about how starting their day right has transformed their lives. They share the details of their morning routines and explain how you can put together one that will work for you. Joel and Andy also have an in-depth discussion about finding ways to express yourself without offending others. Providing some suggestions about how to keep up with the pace of change in this area of our lives.   KEY TAKEAWAYS Owning your morning sets you up for a successful day. It is not about getting up at 5 am. The ideal morning routine is not the same for everyone. People who follow a routine for a couple of hours in the morning often achieve more than others do during an entire day. Virtually all titans of industry exercise early in the day. They also tend to meditate. Breathwork is incredible for peace of mind and clarity. Starting your day right is about growth. BEST MOMENTS ‘How you start your day determines everything. ´ ‘They (titans) all have an element of mindset or spiritualism or meditation about them.' ‘Things are never going to come to you unless you believe they will.' ‘To be offended is a choice, but so is being offensive.'   VALUABLE RESOURCES The Codebreak Club: https://www.facebook.com/groups/codebreakclub/about/ Stay Hungry podcast series Stay Hungry Bestselling Book Marketing coaching: www.andyandjoel.com Done-for-you marketing: www.codebreak.co.uk If 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.  After all, getting lots of 'likes' on your Facebook page ain't gonna make your boat go faster.

A new framework is to be introduced to protect wild salmon and sea trout in Scotland from sea lice. The Scottish Environment Protection Agency (SEPA) says the wild salmon population is in crisis - but the new rules should limit their exposure to sea lice by defining protection zones. As the government announces it's going to ban peat in amateur gardening, we look at what crops can be grown in peatland. If you've been around Harper Adams University in Shropshire you might have done a double take as you came across a tractor and a combine this harvest - because neither had a driver. This is the extension of the 'hands free hectare' project we followed a few years back and is shaping not just the future of farm robots but also the regulations, and even the insurance farmers will need. All this week we're looking at bovine tuberculosis - how it affects farms, and efforts to control it., including developing better testing, vaccination badgers, and the annual cull of badgers in England. Presented by Charlotte Smith.

In this episode, Joel, and Andy talk about how LinkedIn has changed…and not for the better.   KEY TAKEAWAYS The LinkedIn algorithm is favouring clickbait and virtue signalling, right now. Pictures of fit people without their tops on or wearing tight shorts also have more reach. It is hard to cut through all of the noise right now, to the point where people are deciding their energies are better used elsewhere.  Your best organic tactic on LinkedIn, at the moment, is to employ a VA to old DM people in a very authentic way. Now is a good time to look again at old-school methods like direct mail or business cards.   BEST MOMENTS ‘Is LinkedIn a loud, bloody awful place to be at the moment? ´ ‘It´s not a sex thing.' ‘Just because you are B2B don't feel the pressure to post on LinkedIn, ten times a week.'

I spend the day on the Test with Will Shropshire. We talk fishing, catch a few fish and he tells me about his book, Silver Ghosts, that is a fictional fishing story about a teenager who is in danger of veering off the rails until he discovers salmon fishing.Will wrote the book to try and encourage youngsters into fishing with all proceeds going to worthy causes.This is more than just a day fishing. It is a wonderful story about a man who cares.

When it comes to food and the entrepreneurial skills needed to succeed, there is a name that is synonymous in Shropshire. Ryan King. Having heard his name mentioned before, we have never been able to get an interview together, that is until now, thanks to help from our good friend Liam Tinsley. Liam was instrumental in putting this together. Ryan is of a unique Shrewsbury pedigree and has a story that offers a different perspective to business that we haven't heard before. The ex owner of The Smoke Stop, Ryan became a victim of his own success. The popularity of his restaurant became an almost 24hr job. This caused Ryan to move to Ibiza and find a job where he was told what to do and grilled if he was late for work, just to feel human again. After Ibiza, Ryan had the idea to take good old fashioned fish and chips and give a new spin with the keepings of tradition. (If you can imagine that) We are of course talking about the famous "Fish Heads" food truck which always creates a buzz wherever it turns up. With a state of the art truck, some of the most slick branding you'll see and food that tastes as good as it looks. How does battered soft shell crab on a stick sound to you? From the Smoke Stop, to Ibiza, to travelling the country in a food truck. What has this been like as a transition? How have things been going and what is next for the man will a million ideas?

In this episode, Joel sits down to talk with Shari Teigman who is a creative strategist who helps the non-average Joes and Janes of the world unleash their inner Maverick and figure out what the hell they are doing in life and business. Joel and Shari cover so much ground in this episode. From the mindset required to be successful with your marketing, to what it takes to become the true you and utilise that for business success.   KEY TAKEAWAYS It's OK for some people not to like you. For creativity to flow, you need to push yourself outside of your comfort zone. Growing fast is scary. Don't let it overwhelm you. Instead, equip yourself with the tools and skills you need to manage that change. Just being yourself is a fantastic way to boost your presence. Shari explains how to do that. If you are not yourself, customers know and won´t trust you or buy. Not being yourself is exhausting, when you stop doing that you have extra capacity to do more and thrive. When market conditions are tough, don´t panic and throw everything at the wall, instead be laser-focused on what you want and put your energy into that. Stay open-minded, and be prepared to listen to everyone's point of view. It does not matter how many mentors you have; the driving force of your business is you. Give yourself time to recharge.   BEST MOMENTS ‘To make a success of your marketing you have to be mentally prepared for it. ´ ‘Save that energy and use it as a sniper rather than a machine gun.' ‘When you get your marketing persona right, your position is respected.'   VALUABLE RESOURCES The Codebreak Club: https://www.facebook.com/groups/codebreakclub/about/ Stay Hungry podcast series Stay Hungry Bestselling Book Marketing coaching: www.andyandjoel.com Done-for-you marketing: www.codebreak.co.uk If 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.  After all, getting lots of 'likes' on your Facebook page ain't gonna make your boat go faster.

Simply stated, I am the strategic playdate for brilliant people who are ready to move from the grey to the multi-colored in their life and work. My edge is about finding your edge. It's where creativity + mindset meets maverick movement. (and I mean real motion, a kinetic kaleidoscope, in fact). Together, we co-design your own power moves playbook for expansion of creative ideas, high-level performance, and the upgraded self you just KNOW it's time to meet and to put in charge of your business (and your life). Your fast track for growth and transformation just got way more creative, and a whole lot more human. We roll with love, leadership, connection, and curiosity. We make space for the radical, the practical, AND the soul. Boy mama adoring, crisp/chip (I'm bilingual!) addicted, reggaeton dancing, wander lusting, sweary talking firecracker at your service. I am fueled by love, creativity + curiosity for bigger and better lives for anyone I can reach but I was NOT always this version of me. Rewind 12 years and I was your standard Stepford wife living a life that looked beautiful from the outside but most certainly was not mine. I had lost my spark and I had no idea how to find it again. So, I started with what I knew I didn't want and transformed entirely through a divorce, single mamaing the 2 most amazing boys in the world + navigating rebuilding a Self I knew was meant for much more. After more dark nights of the soul than I can count, lots of dancing + cocktails mixed in for good measure, I found the rabbit hole of personal development and I dove in with all I had. I studied for a life coaching certification + a yoga teacher training for a full year of immersion and KNEW I found my purpose. With a sociology, art therapy and makeup artist background- uncovering what makes people tick melded with creativity runs in my veins. My role in the world is to help people unearth themselves for more success, fulfilment + joy on their terms. I can see in you what you cannot yet see. Spidey senses and all, ya know. In my 8th year in business, I blend creative strategy, innovative play and mindset mentoring to help YOU become your exceptional self to build a business that performs. It's time to bring out the Maverick in you.   ABOUT THE HOSTS   Joel Stone Joel Stone is a marketer and disciple of business strategy.

In this episode, Joel is joined by Liam O'Neill the ‘Prove it Guy', who coaches his clients to create better content via up-to-date social media channels and tools. Liam and Joel talk all about how to make better content as well as their personal ethos behind entrepreneurship.   KEY TAKEAWAYS Liam has always wanted to help people, before coaching clients in content he worked with people on their mental health and mindset. Liam's client base is coaches, he believes by helping coaches get their message out there, he is also indirectly helping their clients too. Practice makes perfect! If you become obsessive about what you do, then you become unbeatable. In a business context, it's important to be aware of the risks but you shouldn't be focused on them, you need to visualise the positives and what you want to achieve. Being an entrepreneur can be uncomfortable, but you must be uncomfortable to grow. You can choose to be comfortable and stuck or choose to get out of your comfort zone and reach for something you dream of doing. You don't need to be anyone else in your content, you just need to be authentically you. Authenticity is the key to unlocking your social media potential. Encourage your clients to attract likeminded people, it makes them feel connected to you and build likability and trust. The importance of engaging content can't be underestimated, this should be your core focus when creating anything for your audience.   BEST MOMENTS “If you give me the time, I can prove to you that you can be superhuman as well” “My goal is to prove to people and teach people they can be who they want in life” “I want people to feel when I speak not just hear it” “You can have fake security in something you hate or fake security in something you love”   VALUABLE RESOURCES The Codebreak Club: https://www.facebook.com/groups/codebreakclub/about/ Stay Hungry podcast series Stay Hungry Bestselling Book Marketing coaching: www.andyandjoel.com Done-for-you marketing: www.codebreak.co.uk If 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.    After all, getting lots of 'likes' on your Facebook page ain't gonna make your boat go faster.

In this episode, I chat with Meg Prince, owner of The Ironbridge Bookshop in Shropshire, England, about buying an indie bookshop at age 18, Penguin Books, coffee and cakes, and what she's currently reading!The Ironbridge Bookshop is located in the main square of the historic town of Ironbridge, with views over the River Severn and the Ironbridge, set right in the heart of Shropshire, England.The bookshop specializes in Penguin Books and has an extensive collection displayed on their very own ‘Penguin Wall.' These books hold a special place in Meg's heart,  as not only are they iconic with their striking color-coded covers and the many series that were published, but they are a wonderful piece of bookish history. When first published 82 years ago, Penguin Books were delivered to service men and prisoners of war camps. Few of these early copies survive and have become highly collectible.The Ironbridge BookshopLJ Ross, authorSir Terry Pratchett, authorSupport the show

For the second helping in our series about historic food and feasts, we're joined by Curator of Collections and Interiors Cameron Moffett, and Senior Properties Curator Louise Bartlett, to discuss a 13th century feast that took place at Stokesay Castle in Shropshire. We'll discover who was hosting, their guest of honour, what was on the menu and the politics of the medieval dining table.

In this episode, Rob Austin, from SME Skills, and Joel have an in-depth chat about the sales function of a business. They tackle sales stereotypes and how to ask powerful, authentic questions in your sales process.  They discuss why every business needs a sales process, why you are not the main character in your prospects' story and why getting a "no" is still a result. As well as how to take the fear out of picking up the phone. They also explain how to trick Jordan Belfort into buying his own pen and much more besides…   KEY TAKEAWAYS Most people think about the act of making a sale negatively. Marketing does not have that stigma.  There is no point in marketing if you don't follow through and make sales. To sell effectively you must get your mindset right. How to do that is discussed in the episode. You must 100% understand what you are doing. That is only possible through practice. Don't wing it. When selling, give people options that will genuinely get them to where they want or need to be. You must care and genuinely want to deliver for the prospective client. Realness is essential, people know when you are not being genuine and react badly when you try to deceive them. BEST MOMENTS ‘For some reason, sales have this stigma. ´ ‘I think business owners with sales and marketing are terrified of rejection.' ‘Take the time and really build the rapport.'

He then moved back to the UK, to the beautiful English Riviera in Torbay 15 years ago. Having spent over 12 years in corporate hospitality in some of the finest hotels in Torbay, he eventually wanted out of the industry so he could better utilise his skills. This led him to a sales position in Exeter working for massive clients securing opportunities for them, enabling growth and expansion.  His success within many different industries led to his building his own business, where he could pass his skills on to his clients, enabling them to double their sales within a short time. "I joined the SME Skills Academy as I could no longer sustain or give as much to my clients as I wanted to, SME Skills now gives me a lot more content, an excellent team to be a part of and so much more backing than I ever had before, opening me up to even more opportunities to help business owners just like you to double or even triple your sales because, at the end of the day, nothing within business is more important than sales, without it you will just have an expensive hobby!

As stated in the previous episode I was able to catch up with Brill for part 2 of our Untold Truth series. I was able to get a few calls in so this episode is longer than the previous. Brill and I discussed some of the controversies of the book like using names, false accusation in the TV show and how he had an epiphany that changed his life. I've been constantly reading his book and generating questions everyday to get his truth out. Subscribe to the podcast apps as well as this YouTube. Comment your thoughts.

A week or two ago I was connected with Brill after he reached out about wanting to tell his story and promote his book "The Real Shropshire Organization: The Untold Truth". I was only able to talk to Brill for 15 min so we decided to chop this interview up in 4 Parts. We discuss him being discussed on the new HBO show "We Own The City", How he became incarcerated and more. If you have any questions or comments please leave them in the comment section as this will be an ongoing series.

Ahhh it feels so good to be back recording these. This one is from the day I was meant to being my THIRD attempt at an ultra, but once again, sickness made not possible. I was a little raw on this day, and talked it through with you as I ran (and walked) up giant hills and viewed the scenery. You will hear me shift my mindset during the run and hopefully make you feel positive too. Join Tina for a run around Shropshire. This run involves meditative aspects- a nature check in, body scan, senses check in, and mental health check in, and then Tina talks through her decision to not race in Snowdonia while she was in the UK, and challenges herself up some tough hills instead. Join Tina for this real, raw Together Run. Thanks for listening! We know there are so many podcasts you could be listening to, but we are honored you have chosen Running For Real.

In the final instalment of my current visit to Pitchford Hall in Shropshire, I explore the vast attics and see a hidden structural treasure from Pitchfords medieval past. I hear how the Edwardian summer house has been lovingly restored and join the party to celebrate the completion of a very special restoration of the library. And will I manage to stay afloat when I take to the water in a traditional fishing boat!Please support the production of American Viscountess by becoming a Patron at https://www.patreon.com/americanviscountess.
