In today's episode, Lou cats to world record holder and entrepreneur, Sophie Bennett. Sophie shares insights into her journey of achieving world records, including completing a 100-kilometer ski erg challenge. She delves into the concept of building resilience through incremental progress and the importance of setting achievable goals. Sophie also emphasizes the significance of surrounding oneself with individuals pursuing similar challenges to stay motivated and overcome mental barriers. KEY TAKEAWAYS Embrace discomfort as a means to push your limits and achieve your goals. Break down challenges into smaller, manageable tasks to build up resilience over time. Being around people who are working towards similar goals can provide motivation and inspiration. Plan ahead and set up systems to make it easier to take the first step towards your goals. Begin with small steps, such as running for 10 minutes or setting achievable daily goals, to build momentum towards larger accomplishments. BEST MOMENTS "If I know I can do 5K on the ski erg, then I know I can do 10, because once you've done five, you've only got five to go. And if you know you can do 10, then you know you can do 20, because you've only got 10 to go." "Doing something hard isn't doing something that is out there and obscene and new and extraordinary and all these things. Doing something hard is doing something you've never done before." "Just because I do hard things doesn't mean I have to do every hard thing." "For me, for business, getting started was the fear of having a 9-to-5. The fear of four weeks annual leave gives me the heebie-jeebies. Honestly, I just can't. I have so much to do. I can't fit that into four weeks! There's so much of the world to see." 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.

In this episode of #SpeakingBusinessPodcast, I talk to Sophie Bennett. Sophie knows the value that books bring to Speakers. Her first book brought her in her first invitation to speak, seven years ago. That book transformed her writing business into a speaking business. Her second book was written specifically to take her speaking business to a corporate audience and it worked! It's turned her into an authority in the field of motivation, it's helped her land major corporate clients and was the reason she was invited to become a visiting Lecturer at Cranford School of Management. She has coached and ghost written for many other speakers too. She ghost wrote a book on the future of technology for a previously unknown Dutch Futurist. That book helped him to more than quadruple his speaking fees! In this fascinating episode, Sophie shares her tips and tools for becoming an author, getting published and how this will enhance your speaking business and quite possibly enable you to increase your speaking fees.
