My first few years as a dentist didn't involve dental implants, and most of it was due to my lack of surgical confidence. It wasn't like I needed to include dental implants in my practice - business was booming without it. Then, the Crash of 2008 happened, and it opened my eyes to the importance of offering a variety of services that cater to a broader market. One of these is dental implants, a procedure that, to this day, not many dentists provide. I invested in learning the basics and advanced implant procedures, allowing my practice to grow exponentially. It was one of the best decisions I have made in my career.Today, I share the economics of including implants in your practice, how many you can typically do in a year, and the potential earnings you're missing out on by not offering it. I discuss why there's never a ‘perfect time' to start offering dental implants. I describe my first implant experience and my takeaways from that day. I explain the different side effects of having implants in your practice and what you can expect from our program and course offerings. I also share how technology has made doing implants easier, more profitable, and more efficient than other popular services."Implant dentistry should be done at the highest level; it should be done with the most predictability and the most scalability - and technology delivers that." - Tarun Agarwal This week on T-Bone Speaks Dentistry Podcast:The economics in getting started with implant dentistry and if they're worth itWhy there's never a great time to start implantsWhy I used to be a restorative-only dentist for the first few years of my careerWhen I began implant dentistry and why it was difficultWhy you can never know too much about implant dentistryThe first implant I had and the number of PAs it tookThe possible side effects of implant dentistry in your practiceHow implant dentistry taught me to slow down so I can speed upWhy our implant dentistry program is not for everyoneThe road I don't recommend taking to implant dentistryWhy you should have a CBCT in your officeThe ancillary tools you should have for implantsThe number of implants the average successful dentist will do in a yearWhat it takes to plan, place, and restore a dental implantWhat dentists can expect from our retreat and dental programsOur Favorite Quotes:"Getting started is the most important thing." - Tarun Agarwal"I looked at implants as I was going to have a staged approach that I could build upon." - Tarun Agarwal"The beauty of implant dentistry is - the learning will ever stop with implant dentistry." - Tarun AgarwalSubscribe, Connect & Share Your Favorite EpisodesThanks for tuning into this week's episode of T-Bone Speaks Dentistry.

We have all had a hard time due to the Coronavirus (COVID – 19) and we all have been working from our homes, from buyer to the seller, operational manager to the chief information officer. We frequently use all kinds of electronic goods at home, consume lots of electricity, our computers, washing machines, and phones, etc. Today, consumers are used to having information at their fingertips. However, the reality is that most consumers spend less than 3 minutes of user engagement per year with information sent by their gas, water and electricity suppliers. Luckily, that will soon change, and AI will be a driver of enhanced services for utility customers. By harnessing the data from nearly ubiquitous smart meters and partnering with technology startups like Net2Grid, consumers, utilities and retailers will actually be able to disaggregate electricity consumption down to the level of individual appliances. Doing so enables utilities to better forecast energy demand to help their customers understand previously inscrutable electric bills and to suggest concrete ways for customers to reduce those bills. In this episode Bert Lutje Berenbroek, CEO and Bram van der Wal, Head of Product at Net2Grid reflect on 2020 and share their experiences working with clients like E.ON, EDP and Essent offering insights into the future of energy saving solutions.You will learn:Industry experiences from the last yearWhat disaggregation means and how it impacts the energy sectorHow utilities can develop value-added services in top of their commodity businessHow to drive change through data – your dataExample services from leading utilitiesAcknowledgements:Song: www.Bensound.comMusic Info: Corporate Ambient - AShamaluevMusic.Music Link: https://www.ashamaluevmusic.com/corporate-music

I figured this month would be a good time to start sharing the progress of my word of the year: Grow.

Before you build that website, before you spend money on ads, if you’re just starting out, or if you’ve been at it for years with little to no traction, you need to hear this one. Today we have with us the mystery, the legend, Rebecca Tracey of the Uncaged Life. I’m really excited about this episode because Becca is one of the gems that’s really worth her salt and fills a huge need in the online business industry – and that’s getting people clear on their business missions, their message, and how they help their clients. This seems basic – and it is – but so many people don’t have this foundation in their business even if they’ve been plodding along for a while. People like me just two years ago. I was one of those people who went to Becca for help after all of the fancy other things I bought didn’t work. Because without clarity, you can’t effectively use all of those fancy things. Trust me on this – I promise. Through her no-nonsense approach to helping clients in her wildly successful program, Uncage Your Business, Becca has helped thousands of coaches, creatives and other online business owners get clear on who they serve, how to talk about their business, and getting their first clients. And you know what? I still go back to her content as a first stop when I’m feeling stuck. But shameless gushing aside, if you know Becca, then you know that you’re in for a treat.Today we talk: How she started her business – living in a van!Why your business can’t be ‘the thing’ to rescue you from a job you hate Why you need to niche in right now if you want to grow your businessThe one thing that consistently surprises her about her flagship program year after yearWhat you need to STOP doing if you want any tractionWhat beta testing will do for your offers (aka you should totes do it)Her one mega goal she wants to reach as she approaches ten years (!!) of her businessThere are one or two instances of some salty language here in case you have the tiny humans running around, but otherwise, sit back and enjoy this very special interview. I guarantee this episode will get you re-thinking a lot about what you’ve heard about online business, and how you’ve approached your own biz. Here it is. Rebecca Tracey is the head honcho at The Uncaged Life where she works with online business owners to get clear on their brand message, create packages that sell, and helps them learn what it actually takes to get and keep clients in this crazy online world (all while working from home with no pants on). Rebecca runs a free online community of over 12k solopreneurs. She started her business while living in a van, and now own a slightly upgraded van that she uses to go on rock climbing trips for months at a time when she's not running her Uncage Your Business program.Free LIVE Get Clients training for March 23rd Becca’s free Uncaged Lifers Facebook groupBecca’s InstagramMore about Uncage Your Business

It's almost the end of 2019, and before we dive into a new decade, I wanted to share my 2019 Annual Review with you, where I highlight my epic fails, lessons learned and all the awesome things that came out of this year.This process of reflection is something I highly recommend BEFORE you dive into your 2020 goals.Why? Because in order to know what will work for you in 2020 you need to first understand the why, what and how of everything you did, didn't do and who you became this year.Luckily for me, I captured my goals and intentions for 2019 in the very first episode of the Untapped Podcast where I shared 19 Things I Will and Will Not Do in 2019.I also did it as two separate vlogs on my YouTube channel if you prefer to watch my entertaining videos.And for the first time ever since putting it out, I have just looked back at these.And I'm not gonna lie, it's not pretty.I think I pretty much missed almost everything and there's a very good reason for that - because I never reviewed them!So let me run through these quickly, and then give you a recap of what actually happened this year. And why it's totally fine with me that I missed so many of these 19 things.I also reveal to you what really happened this year, I think you'll probably have a pretty decent understanding.And I have a lot of compassion for myself in this moment as to why so many of these got missed, and even reading them now, I must admit, what the heck was I thinking?In this episode you'll learnWhy reflecting on your year can help you envision what you want for the next yearWhat worked and what didn't work for me in 2019Why it's okay to not achieve every single one of your goalsHow to plan your ideal 2020Podcast ResourcesTake a look back on my first episode of UNTAPPED where I made my list of 19 things I will and will not do in 2019Check out the Plan Your Ideal Freedom Year course that will help you head into 2020 with crystal clear vision!Learn more about how Life Pilot can help you to reflect regularly throughout the year See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
So it’s December…One of the biggest party months of the year with Christmas parties, gatherings, alcohol and sh*tty food. The temptation and peer pressure to drink and eat copious amounts of food is high, you don’t want to miss out on a “good time”.You stress about the calories so you restrict throughout the day so you can binge on alcohol and then binge on food to curb your cravings later.Sounds like a merry-go-round of f*ckery to me! One that I used to be on also.I remember up until 4 years ago, when this time of year came around, I would restrict my calories leading into the holidays because I knew that I was approaching a 2-week bender of binge drinking, binge eating and feeling like sh*t. My mentality back then was “So I can have fun, I need to restrict”. Not to mention I was completely unhappy in myself so I drank to drown my sorrows away.January 1st hit, the “New Year, New Me” set in and I thought all of that binging would be fine because I would start fresh the next year…While this was happening, my metabolism was f*cked, I wasn’t sleeping well, I was moody and my digestion was sh*t…Rather than enjoying the ‘most wonderful time of the year’, I spent the majority of it drunk and hungover.I now approach this time of year no different to any other day of the year...I do like to have the odd drink of a really nice champagne or a cocktail and I enjoy filling up my plate on Christmas day, but I do it because when I shifted my focus to getting better and healing, the decisions became easier to either not drink again or have one or two...not bloody 20....So should I drink? Well it really depends on your body and health goals and why you’re drinking? I used to drink to drink to numb my problems and pain. If I was sad or stressed I drank to cope. If you’re goal is to lose 20kgs, have serious hormonal or metabolic issues then maybe you need to really ask yourself does drinking align with my goals?In this episode, we discuss how we attack Christmas and how you can break the cycle of restricting then binge eating this year.We dive in to How alcohol affects our blood sugar levels and hormonesThe causes of binge eating at this time of yearWhat we used to do in the past, why it didn’t work for us and what we do nowThe advice we give to our clients when this ‘silly’ season arrivesNOW my body is now a well-oiled machine because I eat metabolically optimising food. Food that makes me feel bloody good such as liver, oysters, carrot salad, OJ, milk, sugar, fruit, potatoes, butter and the list goes on.I now feel like I can enjoy food, rather than feeling like I need to binge on it and binge drink because in the past I only got to eat yummy food every now and then...the rest of the time I was restricting myself, killing myself doing cardio and ruining my body.So with all of that being said, stop restricting, this leads to feeling unhappy and anxious at this time of year. ENJOY yourself, eat good food, when you restrict it leads to binge eating...it isn’t worth it and you only feel like crap then next day which just begins the cycle all over again.

Perspective and context often allow us to be more compassionate with people. The more we know of their story, the more we can see the good in them and the more we can understand the challenges they have overcome and continue to face.We spend some time talking about how we would like to be more generous in offering compassion to each other, to our kids, to our friends and neighbors, and to strangers. And, we discuss how compassion towards others starts with self-compassion: being more gentle with our selves and being less of a self-critic.Then we take a Halloween detour and debate the best way to both avoid Halloween candy surviving till next Summer and teach our kids how to be generous with something that is extremely important to them (i.e., candy!).The Stat of the Week comes from the National Retail Federation (NRF) blog (Halloween shopping trends: Then and now), and we find out about:Which age group is most likely to celebrate HalloweenHow much money is expected to be spent on the holiday this yearWhat are the most popular pet costumes

This episode of the Business and BBQ Podcast is inspired by one of the exercises in the Mastermind course that Tim has been taking. In an effort to increase self-reflection and prioritize the things that are really “moving the needle” in your business or personal endeavors, you could follow along with Tim’s process outlined in this episode. Tim focused on his rental portfolio while walking through the Needle Movers exercise, and he found it very effective and impactful on his future wellbeing. Any real estate investor knows that a rental portfolio is a long-term investment that will continue to gain in value the longer you hold on to the properties, but since Tim’s rental properties are meant to provide his retirement down the road, he often didn’t put much thought into them before now.What has changed in the last 180 days?He made his rental portfolio a focusHe and his wife made the decision to buy some of their wholesale or flip houses to add to their rental propertiesHe spent the time to break down the financing and bump up his initial investmentHow has focusing on these needle movers changed Tim’s daily life?By creating more time for himselfBy providing more certainty in his investmentsBy making him more excited about his rental portfolio and making him want to be more strategic with itHow is he adding fuel to make it better?By planning to buy more wholesale houses for his rental portfolioBy looking into flipping houses fasterBy making it more of a consistent focus through weekly meetings with his wifeWhat could this do for Tim and his business in the next 12 months?Creating a path forward of stopping wholesaling in the next 12-18 months and beginning to purchase 8-10 rental properties per yearWhat can Tim pass on to others?At the first ever REI Masterminds event in Rockwall, Texas, on August 17th, Tim will be sharing his relevant financials and property checklistsFocus on what make a positive impact and do more of itLinks:Tim’s Real Estate Investor Mastermind https://www.reimasterminds.com/Audible trial promotional link: audibletrial.com/thHubSpot promotional link: hubspot.com/thConnect with Tim:Blog and More https://timherriage.com/LinkedIn https://www.linkedin.com/in/herriageTwitter https://twitter.com/timherriage Facebook https://www.facebook.com/timherriage/ Business and BBQ Facebook Group https://www.facebook.com/groups/timherriage/Instagram https://www.instagram.com/timherriage/With business questions: ask@timherriage.comWith BBQ questions: bbq@timherriage.com
As we approach the mid year point, ask yourself how is the pace and rhythm of your life working for you? Are you focused on what matters? Do you even have the space to focus on what matters? The truth is the swirl of the world & the pace of the systems you work in aren't going to slow down... but you do have the power within you to set the rhythm of your life differently. But... "You only discover balance in your life when you learn to trust the flow of the ancient rhythm" - john O'Donohue. What does that mean? I will share more with you... I broadcast this episode the last two years at this same time, and decided to share it again because as I listened to it myself today I was inspired by what I said. I couldn't say it better a second time. So using two feminine leadership principles I'll share at the start of our conversation, I share this timeless wisdom with you for this time now. Tune in xoxo. About this Feminine Power Time with Christine Arylo: We lead crazy paced lives in part because we have made the unconscious choice to allow the rhythm of our life to be dictated by the pace the patriarchy and over culture has set - keeping us frenzied, fragmented and not focused on what truly matters. And there is another choice... Feminine wisdom shows us how to be in the world without being of the world, by taking the powerful act to consciously set the patterns and rhythms of days, weeks, months and years in a way that creates harmony, not havoc. This was originally the third episode in the "Breaking Through the Myth of Balance" Series, as we illuminate a different way to live - so we can focus on what matters, be the most powerful presences of change, without exhausting ourselves and our resources including: Indigenous, feminine and yogic wisdom for tapping in to the natural order of the cosmos and the earth to create a more natural order and flow to your life How to structure your days, weeks, months and year differently and with intention to create more space for what matters and more space for you Fuel your work and create the space to bring the projects you desire to bring into form using the 4 Feminine Super Power turns of the Year What bio-dynamic farming, business theory and ancient wisdom all agree on regarding the rhythm we need to lead our lives with success The Feminine Super Power of FLOW + Using the Power of Moonifesting - and how you can use it to get what matters done Join me to make this real and practical in your life: 1.

What would I love to have the space to create? birth? experience? do? this year but I never seem to have the time or space for? 2. What support do I need to create the space for what you want to create? Wisdom Bytes: "When we try to do too much and too fast, we exhaust ourselves, our time, our money and we do not have enough of what we need." "Organizations often try to do too much and too fast so they burn out their employees. We have to ask ourselves why are we driving and striving so hard? What is sustainable growth? And when will we give up the dominate the world culture as normal or acceptable." "There is something deeper within you that wants the space to create or express. You have the power within to restructure your weeks and days. You cant make more time but you can create the space." "It is a daring act to choose to live within a different structure than the one you've been conditioned to believe is normal. If you get into the flow of the natural cycles and deepen into the roots of mother nature, and allow the space for grace to come in, the path ahead will become illuminated."

James Earl Carter Jr. (@ 55yrs old in 1979), Politician and philanthropist. Born and raised in south-west Georgia, Jimmy grew up to be a U.S. Navy Lieutenant, Georgia State Senator, Governor of Georgia, and the 39th POTUS. 50. On July 15, 1979, President Jimmy Carter went on national television to share with millions of Americans his diagnosis of a nation in crisis. "It’s clear that the true problems of our nation are much deeper -- deeper than gasoline lines or energy shortages, deeper even than inflation or recession. And I realize more than ever that as President I need your help...I know, of course, being President, that government actions and legislation can be very important. That’s why I’ve worked hard to put my campaign promises into law, and I have to admit, with just mixed success. But after listening to the American people, I have been reminded again that all the legislation in the world can’t fix what’s wrong with America. So, I want to speak to you first tonight about a subject even more serious than energy or inflation. I want to talk to you right now about a fundamental threat to American democracy. I do not mean our political and civil liberties. They will endure. And I do not refer to the outward strength of America, a nation that is at peace tonight everywhere in the world, with unmatched economic power and military might. The threat is nearly invisible in ordinary ways. It is a crisis of confidence." 51. General Legacy 52. Carter's presidency was initially seen as a failure. Although HE ESTABLISHED THE UNITED STATES DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY and the DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION, initiated a lot of pro-environment policies, PLAYED A KEY ROLE IN NEGOTIATING A PEACE TREATY BETWEEN EGYPT AND ISRAEL, IMPROVED RELATIONS WITH PANAMA BY GIVING THEM CONTROL OF THE PANAMA CANAL, his administration was plagued by dissatisfaction from congressional Democrats, high unemployment and inflation, an energy crisis, and most notably the Iranian Hostage Crisis. Carter has said his biggest lesson from his time in office was, "not to ever let American hostages be held for 444 days in a foreign country without extracting them." He added, "I did the best I could, but I failed." 53. However, Carter’s peacekeeping and humanitarian efforts since he left office have earned him a Nobel Peace Prize, along with a Grammy award, making him one of the most successful ex-presidents in American history. - The Independent wrote, "Carter is widely considered a better man than he was a president." 54.

She had dance hits in five straight decades; she hit the pop Hot 100 32 times.

"...Raised in the limelight by an infamously strict father, Michael (as a teenager) was painfully self-conscious, worried that he might never be able to shake his child stardom. He didn’t want to merely cling to his family’s fading notoriety. He wanted to break away from it completely. Off the Wall is the sound of that liberation. And he knew exactly what he was doing. On November 6, 1979, just as the album was starting to take off, Michael wrote a note to himself on the back of a tour itinerary, a proclamation of self so ambitious it could make Kanye blush. "MJ will be my new name, no more Michael Jackson. I want a whole new character, a whole new look, I should be a totally different person. People should never think of me as the kid who sang ‘ABC’ [and] ‘I Want You Back,’" he jotted down. "I should be a new incredible actor singer dancer that will shock the world. I will do no interviews. I will be magic. I will be a perfectionist, a researcher, a trainer, a masterer… I will study and look back on the whole world of entertainment and perfect it.

I'm sharing this with you as we approach the mid year point because it's so crazy relevant to the wisdom we need to pace ourselves and stay focused on what matters this next part of the year. I broadcast it last year at this same time, listened to it myself today and was inspired by what I said - lol :) Seriously, timeless wisdom for this time now. Tune in... xoxo About this Feminine Power Time with Christine Arylo: We lead crazy paced lives in part because we have made the unconscious choice to allow the rhythm of our life to be dictated by the pace the patriarchy and over culture has set - keeping us frenzied, fragmented and not focused on what truly matters. And there is another choice... Feminine wisdom shows us how to be in the world without being of the world, by taking the powerful act to consciously set the patterns and rhythms of days, weeks, months and years in a way that creates harmony, not havoc. It is the 3rd in the Breaking Through the Myth of Balance Series, as we illuminate a different way to live - so we can focus on what matters, be the most powerful presences of change, without exhausting ourselves and our resources including: Indigenous, feminine and yogic wisdom for tapping in to the natural order of the cosmos and the earth to create a more natural order and flow to your life How to structure your days, weeks, months and year differently and with intention to create more space for what matters and more space for you Fuel your work and create the space to bring the projects you desire to bring into form using the 4 Feminine Super Power turns of the Year What bio-dynamic farming, business theory and ancient wisdom all agree on regarding the rhythm we need to lead our lives with success The Feminine Super Power of FLOW + Using the Power of Moonifesting - and how you can use it to get what matters done Join me for the mid year power pause and virtual retreat FLOW - www.superpowerpause.com Join me for the East Coast power pause and Feminine Wisdom Weekend at Kripalu - details here.

Podcast: How Was Your Trading Year in 2017?In this weekly video: 00:25 – Were you profitable in 2017? 01:00 – Look back at your trading year and make a good analysis on your performance 01:45 – Use the quieter market and the benefit of hindsight to improve your trading next year 02:25 – Have a look at my 255 videos and podcasts over the holidays 02:50 – Strength and weakness analysis and free trading strategy 03:16 – 2017 in summary and helping create independent and profitable traders 04:10 – If you want my help in 2018, just contact me and I’ll be glad to help 04:25 – Merry Christmas and Happy New YearHow was your 2017 trading year? Was it a good one? Let's talk about that and more, right now.Hi Forex traders! Andrew Mitchem here, The Forex Trading Coach. Video and podcast number 255, and this is the last video and podcast of the year 2017.Were you profitable in 2017?So it's a good chance and a good time right now to reflect on your trading year of 2017. How was it? Was it a good year? Have you been profitable? Have you lost money? Have you broken even? How was it overall? Were there certain months, were there certain times that were good, that were not good? And certain types of trade patterns that you took. Are you a news trader? Are you a technical trader? What kind of timeframe charts do you trade? What has worked for you? What has not worked for you? It's a really good time.Look back at your trading year and make a good analysis on your performanceIt's an important thing to do right now is just to look back at that year. With the benefit of hindsight, what would you do differently? What did really work for you? What didn't work? Where's the consistency? Is there consistency? Is your trading all over the place? Are you getting a high win rate but still losing money? Different things like that. Have you had a few big terrible trades that have wiped out lots of gains? And I think it's a really important time to reflect and to go back and look at your trades, look at them on the charts, and just use that benefit of hindsight. Was that a silly trade to take? Did it break all my rules? Was it a great trade? Why was this a good trade, and what did it have as the setup?Use the quieter market and the benefit of hindsight to improve your trading next yearWhat can you learn from that? Use this quieter time now on the market, because really the market from next week is going to be fairly quiet. I'm going no longer than Friday the 22nd of December, probably even maybe a day or so finished trading before that, and I'm not going to start trading until at least Wednesday, the 10th of January. I really want to get into that first full week of the year, and the Monday and Tuesday the 8th and 9th are quite likely to be a bit slow, so Wednesday the 10th at the absolute earliest for me before I start trading again into 2018.Have a look at my 255 videos and podcasts over the holidaysSo what can you do over this holiday period? Well, I encourage you to go and have a look through a lot of my past videos and podcasts. This is video and podcast number 255, so there's a massive amount of information there for you to go and look through. Do you want to look at trading daily charts? Do you want to learn about different timeframes, reward and risk? Low risk per trade? All those different things. There is so much information freely available on my website.Strength and weakness analysis and free trading strategyYou can go back through my strength and weakness analysis, have a look on the daily charts. How could you best use that with your own strategy? If you don't have a strategy I have a freely available strategy available on my website for you to download and to learn from. I have a risk calculator there available.
Episode 21 It’s the Most Wonderful Time of the Year? What about S.A.D.? Andy Williams’ famous Christmas carol starts:It's the most wonderful time of the yearWith the kids jingle bellingAnd everyone telling you be of good cheerIt's the most wonderful time of the yearThese make catchy lyrics for a long, but for many people, the reality of late December and winter are anything but wonderful and cheery. Christmas, as it’s celebrated in current American culture, is often laden with stress, conflict, over-indulgence, and debt. (Please listen to Episode 19, “Preparing for Christmas.”) But beyond the tension that often accompanies Christmas, there are also the mid-winter “blahs.” Starting in late June every year, people in the Northern Hemisphere get about two minutes’ less of daylight each day. That might not sound like much, but when you add it all up, by December it’s often getting dark by the time kids get out of school and adults get off of work. These shorter days, combined with the lower, weaker sun rays during daylight, can trigger a medical malady aptly-labeled as Seasonal Affective Disorder (S.A.D.). Listen to this episode to find out more about what causes S.A.D.; what some of the symptoms are; and how getting outside, putting more lights inside, and other changes can help you fight this condition.The bumper music is Bill Monroe (1911-1997) and his band “The Blue Grass Boys” singing “Christmas Time’s a Comin.’” Bill Monroe is known as the “Father of Bluegrass Music,” a famous music genre from the Appalachian region of the US. Word of the Day: affective (adj.) relating to moods, feelings, and attitudesQuestion of the Day: What are some things you do to keep your mood and energy boosted in the winter months?Have a question or feedback?

New Zealand-born actor, presenter, life coach and workshop facilitator Andrew Eggelton, who has starred alongside Ryan Gosling and Michael J. Fox, talks to Elizabeth Harris at Dave O'Neil's office at Grandview Hotel (Fairfield) about: The downside of being famous, and what it's really like to work in the entertainment industry. His childhood and how it helped him develop his creativity and imagination as a writer. The life-changing episode that made him dig deep and uncover his purpose. A cabin in Romania, Dracula's castle, and a dog called Darren writing a fairytale about a man writing about a dog writing a fairytale. What his Generation Y clients tell him they want most of all, and what he thinks should be taught in schools. His upcoming "Art of Play" workshops in Melbourne, Sydney, and Brisbane. Find out more about Andrew Eggelton's work at AndrewEggelton.com. FULL TRANSCRIPT: Elizabeth: Welcome to Writers’ Tête-à-Tête with Elizabeth Harris, the show that connects authors, songwriters and poets with their global audience. So I can continue to bring you high-calibre guests, I invite you to go to iTunes, click Subscribe, leave a review, and share this podcast with your friends. Today I’m delighted to introduce the charismatic and insightful Andrew Eggelton. Once upon a time Andrew Eggelton was a carefree child blessed with a vivid imagination, running around the fields of … Andrew: Otaio. Elizabeth: Thank you. I was going to ask you how to pronounce that. So Otaio, a country town 30 minutes from Timaru – is that correct? Andrew: Yes. Elizabeth: South Canterbury, New Zealand. After the unfortunate discovery that he could no longer be a child, his imagination and desire to challenge the conventional would still play a large part in his adult life. Now in his forties, he’s spent over 20 years in the entertainment industry working with such people as Ryan Gosling and Michael J. Fox. Andrew: Just to name a few. (Laughter) Elizabeth: Yes, I’m looking forward to learning more about it, Andrew. When a life-changing moment asked him to dig deep and get specific about what he was born to do. Andrew now nurtures artists to reach their fullest potential. He reminds people just how powerful remembering to play is, and to nurture the inner child before it is lost forever. Andrew uses his intuitive coaching gift to host one-to-one intensives for artists, speakers and television presenters. Andrew guides his clients from a mundane existence to an inspired powerful life. He inspires his clients to dream, discover their purpose, and then gift package this to the world. Andrew Eggelton, welcome to Writers’ Tête-à-Tête with Elizabeth Harris. Andrew: Nice to meet you and thank you for having me. Elizabeth: It’s a pleasure to meet you Andrew – and to pick you up from the corner of Greville Street and Chapel Street in beautiful Melbourne. Andrew: Yup, all in exchange just for one chai. Elizabeth: It’s my favourite drink after all. Andrew: Better than an Uber. Elizabeth: Andrew, we recently discovered that we have a similar sense of humour. How do you use that wonderful sense of humour in your coaching work? Andrew: In my coaching, I use my humour to defuse the sense of a line between me and my clients, so it allows them to realize that I’m just the same as them, and that we’re all on the same level playing field. Elizabeth: ‘Cause it’s an equalizer. Andrew: It’s an equalizer; takes away the ego of everybody, brings everybody down to the same level. Elizabeth: I really like that, ‘cause I use a lot of humour too, and some people don’t understand my sense of humour, and now I’ve found one person who does, so thank you for that. You spent your childhood in a beautiful place and the school you attended was unique. Can you tell us the impact of being in such a small school, the benefits and the hindrances? Andrew: Okay, the impact. Do you know when I first moved to the school, I was five, and there were eight pupils. Eight. And no one my age. There were two girls … Elizabeth: Oh, were you the baby? Andrew: I was … My dad was my teacher and principal, so that was quite challenging. Elizabeth: Right. Andrew: There was special treatment for sure, but probably not in the positive way - probably in the way that Dad was probably a little bit harder on me than the other children. Elizabeth: Did that make you cry? Andrew: Ah…it brought up some things in my later years, but we’ve worked through those now. And anyway, just to put it clear, my dad and I have a beautiful relationship. But what it taught me is that: there was no one for miles. There was no one to play with; I had no peers, so my imagination and what I did with my spare time were of my own doing. Huge bush walks and literally gone all day, you know. Elizabeth: The importance of nature was there for you. Andrew: Yeah, so I’d go for bush walks and leave at nine in the morning, and it wasn’t till the sun was coming down that I’d be like “Okay, it’s time to go home.” Elizabeth: On your own? Andrew: On my own. Elizabeth: That self-sufficiency… Andrew: Very self-sufficient. Elizabeth: Were they worried about you? Andrew: Not at all, not at all. As long as I turned up for dinner, they didn’t care. What trouble could I get into? Elizabeth: What freedom! Andrew: Yes, a lot of freedom. Elizabeth: And we have a tattoo, listeners. Where is your tattoo? One of your tattoos says “Freedom”, Andrew – where is that? Andrew: Forearm. Elizabeth: How many tattoos do you actually have? Andrew: Eight. Elizabeth: And can we talk about where they are, or is that private? Andrew: No (laughing) – I’ve got three on my left arm. “Joy”. “Kaizen”, which is Japanese for ‘little improvement every day’. I’ve got the Viking word “Inguz”, which is ‘where there’s a will there’s a way’. I’ve got “Courage, dear heart”. I’ve got Latin – “Fortune favours the brave”. I’ve got “Truth”. Elizabeth: So a little bit like Robbie Williams, although you deny that. Andrew: I deny I’m anything like Robbie Williams. Elizabeth: Why, what is Robbie Williams like for you? Andrew: Ah, I like that he’s a playful character. Elizabeth: He’s fun. Andrew: Yes, yes he’s fun. Elizabeth: He’s settled down, though. Andrew: Yes he has – and I’m looking to do the same. Elizabeth: Oh, wonderful. What are you looking for in a woman, Andrew? Andrew: Ah, someone who’s the opposite of me. (Laughs) Elizabeth: What does that mean? Andrew: You know what it is? I know exactly what I want from a woman, and that’s why I wrote that article on love that I’ll get it for you later. I want a goddess, a divine feminine woman. Elizabeth: All women are goddesses. Andrew: They are, they are, but in this day and age, in this day and age, if I may be so bold … Elizabeth: You can be as bold as you like; it’s your show. Andrew: It’s that women try to be men – they embrace so much masculine energy that it really sort of emasculates the men. And for me, being a woman is such an amazing gift. Elizabeth: How do you know? You’re not a woman. (Laughs) Andrew: Only by observation. I mean, you’re the closest thing to Mother Earth that there is. Elizabeth: Can you explain that for the people who are not quite on your level of understanding? Andrew: Okay. Mother Earth means like that nurturing soul, the ability to have a child. Elizabeth: Is it like when I shut your fingers in the window this morning and I said were you okay. I am a nurse and I am concerned about your fingers. Is it like that? Andrew: Well it’s kind of like that, but more authentic. Elizabeth: (Laughs) So Mother Earth… Andrew: So Mother Earth. Here’s the thing. I’m a pretty well-balanced guy, I think. But when I’m with a very feminine woman, I feel safe. Like I feel safe. Like if I’m in her arms, I feel “Wow, I’m safe.” Now she couldn’t protect me to save herself. Elizabeth: That’s true. Andrew: But there’s that feeling of ‘safe’, like there’s something calming. Elizabeth: That’s beautiful. Andrew: And I sat with someone recently, and they said “But don’t you get it Andrew, you make me feel safe too.” I get it – the yin and the yang, the whole, so… Elizabeth: That’s beautiful. That’s what you’re after. Andrew: Anyway, that’s what I’m after. Elizabeth: That’s beautiful. So that’s what you’re after. And ladies, we don’t mind if you’ve had a child. Andrew: You can send in an application. (Laughs) Elizabeth: So what we’re saying is, where do we find your work? We need a website to send these applications to. Where do we find you? Where do women find you, Andrew? Andrew: Women can find me on such sites as … (Laughs) No. Andrew-Eggelton-dot-com. Elizabeth: We’ll talk about your great work. Andrew: Just to finish off that last piece, about the positives of living in that small community – it wasn’t a community. It’s that during the weekend or after school I had nothing to do, so my idea of entertainment was to go over to the school and write. Or draw. I used to draw. Now I can’t do anything more than stick figures. But my writing was something … Elizabeth: Never say “can’t”. You can get back to that. Andrew: Yes, I could, but I probably will never. Ah I love writing – that’s where the writing came from. Elizabeth: And I totally agree, because I love writing too. In Year Six I wrote Tilly the Red Motorcar, and my father threw it away. Andrew: Oh really. Elizabeth: Not intentionally. He did a big clean-out and it’s gone – he threw it away. So how do you utilize the foundation of your wonderfully carefree childhood and vivid imagination within your work, and in particular, how does this translate to The Playroom? Andrew: The essence of what I coach, if you boil it, simmer it down to one thing, is the Art of Play. So when you write, when you present, just your everyday life, one of the things that I really coach into my clients is a sense of playfulness. I’ve always like – my aunty and my family, people who know me, call me Peter Pan. Elizabeth: Oh, that’s lovely. Andrew: Now, that’s getting a bit condescending as they get older, but … Elizabeth: They’re saying “Peter Pan, you need your Wendy.” Andrew: Yes, yes. So what that foundation taught me was the Art of Play – I get curious, I get excited. And when I public speak or go on camera or present on TV, whatever I’m doing, I get into an excited space. This is playtime for me, and that’s what I coach into my clients. It’s exactly the same thing. Reframe this – it sounds very NLP – reframe it, and it gets to a point where they turn it up on camera, and they actually get excited and they say, “Okay, this is our playtime!” If it was a child, you’d be playing with dolls or fire trucks or whatever kids play with these days. Elizabeth: iPads. It’s very disappointing, and I was thinking about your child and how so many children would benefit from a childhood like yours. Andrew: Absolutely. Elizabeth: Just get outside in the dirt, run around. Andrew: Yes. Fall out of trees. Good for you. Elizabeth: Umm, I’m a nurse, I don’t know about that one. But if there’s a safety net under that, sure. (Laughs) Andrew: Yes, but that’s what happened – it was a sense of playfulness. That was the foundation that was built in me from that growing up, that childhood, and that imagination. Elizabeth: Fantastic. In your bio, you mention a life-challenging moment. Will you allow my listeners to know more about this, or will I be breaking privacy laws? Andrew: Yeah sure, so I’ll make a long story short. So two years ago – it was September the 6th or the 9th, I slipped a disc in my neck: C6, C7. The way that works is that if the disc slips, the nerve that runs down through those discs is trapped. Now that can cause a super intense pain. If you haven’t experienced it – and not many people would have, thank God – I can only liken it to passing a kidney stone or giving birth. Obviously one of those I haven’t experienced. So that was like a shotgun blast going off – the incredible pain – and I was in Bali and couldn’t fly. Every doctor told me something different – I mean, I couldn’t even dress myself, couldn’t feed myself, couldn’t get out of bed, and this lasted for 2 months. And if I had been in Australia or New Zealand or a better place with a bit of a medical…uh…Indonesia. Elizabeth: You should have called me Andrew; I could have come over. You could have used nursing care. Andrew: The first thing they said when I got sent back to New Zealand was how was the depression, and I said it was super intense. And he goes “Yeah”, because after that, the physical pain…the physical pain 24/7 and I was self-medicating myself with whatever I could get my hands on to kill the pain. Elizabeth: Not a good time of your life. Andrew: I went into … my mind got lazy and dark and I went into incredible depression. And the life-changing moment was – I woke up one morning and I was like, “How the hell am I going to get through today? I don’t want to deal with another 12 or 14 hours of getting up to deal with people. Can I just take a pill and forget about this day?” Elizabeth: So you were suicidal. Andrew: I understood how people could commit suicide, yes. I’m not that kind of person myself, ‘cause I know that there’s an end. So I got up and went, “Right, enough. You’re going through this. What do you want out of it?” And I wrote down on a piece of paper – I started off with “What is your ideal day?” So I wrote down everything: what happens when I get up, who I’m with, what am I drinking, what does outside my window look like, how do I feel, what’s the look on my face – everything, right down to the minor details of the thread count on my sheets. Then after that, I had the realization, that the current Andrew wasn’t capable of having that perfect day, perfect life, because I wasn’t equipped for that. My behaviours, my beliefs, my character, the things I had to work on. So I started to write down all the things I had to become, the kind of man I needed to be… Elizabeth: Be, do, have, Andrew. Be, do, have. Andrew: Be, do, have. I call it ‘the man I need to be’. So I wrote that down, then I wrote down how many hours a week I wanted to work, how much I wanted to get paid, what I was going to be doing, and how I was going to serve others, and from that moment onwards, I had this whole new focus on life, and that got me into my life coaching. And I use exactly that – I call it Life by Design, and obviously I flesh it out a lot more, and the actual process is called The Design Practice, born from that moment of desperation. Elizabeth: Isn’t that amazing how you turned that around? Congratulations, because many people can’t do that. Andrew: They don’t know – I don’t think they know how to do that. Elizabeth: You know what you don’t know how to do? Accept a compliment, because I’ve just offered you a compliment. Andrew: No, you’re right. I’m not very good at accepting compliments. You’re right, but thank you – thank you. Elizabeth: My pleasure, because that’s really pivotal. Congratulations. You write for Spiritual Biz Magazine and I’ve read a number of your great articles, including a very special piece on love, and also one about the Art of Play. When did you know you wanted to be a writer? Andrew: There’s probably never a point when I didn’t want to be a writer. Yeah, so, like I said earlier my dad encouraged me to write when I was a child. Because there were only 8 kids at the school, where one of the things where - I don’t know if we had subjects at all – we would spend an hour or two hours writing creative stories. And then I would come back and kids would have two paragraphs or half a page, and I would come back with 20 pages, and hold fort for as long as I could. Elizabeth: So clearly a gift. Andrew: It’s definitely a gift, yes. So thank you. See that? Did you see that? Elizabeth: Oh, I’m impressed. (Laughs) You are a fast learner. Well done. Andrew: I am a fast learner. Writing is a real joy and I think there’s a versatility to my writing – I can write silly and fun, and I can also go very deep. Elizabeth: So when you’re writing, what keeps you going, and whatever works for you could work for other people, so what would you advise other people to keep them going with their writing? Andrew: Write, because you want to, not because you have to – for a start. I mean writing, if you’re an artist or just a creative person, writing is something – we talked about this in the car when you came to pick me up – it’s something that for me and I think other artists, we have control over it. I can pick up my laptop or pen and paper any time I want. So the trouble with – the challenge with – being a creator or artist, is especially when we explain it with being a presenter or an actor, is the gatekeeper. The audition is a process; I get the job or I don’t get the job. There’s ten No’s to one Yes – and that’s good odds. So if you’re a creative person, you just can’t wait to get to that playtime. For me, that playtime I am on set and I am playing. But when I’m writing, it’s like I feel like writing right now and I’m gonna write right now. So I get this creative outlet straightaway, and it’s that sense of playing; even when you’re going deep, it’s that sense of playing. Elizabeth: That’s wonderful. Who or what is your major source of support when you are writing? You’ve got some cranberry juice, I see. For me, I’m definitely a coffee addict. So for you, what supports you through that? Is it friends, or is it other writers. You know writers have this wonderful community; we share – we don’t compete, I’ve found, from the community I’m in. Very generous people, and we understand that it can be very isolating to write. So if you’re feeling that way, reach out, because there’s always someone up at 2 a.m., writing something. Andrew: Mmm, it’s true. It’s true. Do you know what, the people who support me are: one is my father, and I have a couple of friends: Jarrah, Campbell – he lives in Bali too – and they’re just like, I’ll talk to them about an article I’m writing, and they’ll “Yes, yes, go for it.” And you know the one I wrote on love when I was in Romania was one I didn’t want to print, because I actually wrote it myself and I thought – I could be judged quite heavily on this, writing about something that – (Elizabeth: It’s a beautiful piece) who am I to write on this subject, you know what I mean? Elizabeth: I’m shaking my head, everybody. (Laughs) Andrew: But I did it and it had a wonderful response and got shared hundreds of times. So, yeah, I’ve got some wonderful friends, and my other support is probably a glass of wine when I write. Elizabeth: Red or white? Andrew: Red. Always red. Elizabeth: And there’s antioxidants in it, so I approve of that. Andrew: Okay, so I’ve always wanted to write – for a long time I’ve wanted to write – a fairy tale, in a cabin, in Romania, overlooking the castle that inspired the legend of Dracula. Actually, the castle that inspired the novel Dracula. It’s a little town called Bran in Transylvania in Romania. Elizabeth: Do you have a costume that you wear when you’re writing? Andrew: No, there was no costume. Elizabeth: No fangs? Andrew: No, no, no. It was actually very exciting. I wrote about an imaginary character called Darren who’s a dog. And Darren left the corporate world… Elizabeth: Right. Well, I wrote about a cat called Victoria, so here we are. Andrew: Yes. Everybody had told Darren that dogs can’t write fairy tales. And so Darren went “Fxxk it!” And then he got on a plane and flew to Romania and travelled around Europe, ended up in Romania, and he’s been writing a fairy tale about a man… Elizabeth: You need to put some money in Samuel Johnson’s Swear Jar. Andrew: That’s one; that’s only one so far. So Darren said if you went ahead and jump on a plane anyway and fulfilled his dream of writing his fairy tale about Europe and ended up in Transylvania. And he’s writing a fairy tale about a man writing about a dog writing a fairy tale. So it’s multi-layered, very confusing. Elizabeth: No, no, hang on a minute. A man …? Andrew: Being me. Elizabeth: Yeah, but let’s just go back a bit, so a bit slower. A man …? Andrew: A man, writing about a dog who’s going on a journey to write a fairy tale. Elizabeth: Everybody’s got that now, so go ahead. Andrew: Yes. And he has not finished it – he is definitely chipping his way through it, which is nice, and it was a beautiful journey in Romania to be able to do that. But Darren got very sidetracked with many things in Europe, and that held him up a little bit. Elizabeth: (Laughs) Was Darren auditioning for the mother of his pups, perhaps? Andrew: I think Darren might have a few pups, though. (Laughs) Elizabeth: In 20 years you might have a couple of knocks on your door, Andrew. Andrew: Thai’s it. Elizabeth: What are you working on at the moment? Andrew: So the number one priority at the moment is I’ve got workshops coming up in New Zealand and Australia in February, March, and my number one priority is putting together how that will look. So my workshop’s called The Art of Play, and it’s for live speakers, presenters, corporates, entrepreneurs. So that’s a priority. Elizabeth: Can we learn about that? What is the workshop about? Andrew: I bring – if I can say so myself, which is very un-humble for a Kiwi… Elizabeth: Just be loud and proud. Andrew: Okay. I bring a very unique, world-class way of coaching and presenting, so a performance, and I literally have a gift, an intuitive ability to tailor my coaching to an individual. So even if I’ve got 20 different people in class, I’ll have 20 different ways of coaching. Elizabeth: That’s because you read people very well. Andrew: I read people very well. And part of that is because presenting never came easy to me. It’s something I worked very hard at, and had to work through many, many of my blocks. Elizabeth: See, that really surprised me. Andrew: Really. Elizabeth: Yes. ‘Cause you present so well. Andrew: That’s good to know. Thank you, thank you. So Melbourne … Brisbane will be the first weekend of March, then Sydney the weekend after, then Melbourne the weekend after that. Elizabeth: So you’re wanting your – so you’re the focus, and we have this theatre setup, and you bring the participants down for their turn. Is that how it works? Andrew: Yes, yes, yes. You know my favourite space – I get into a zone which is super playful, and I love it. Like when I coach, that’s my happy place. And feeding off the energy of other people, and feeding off me, and then taking away people’s expectations of themselves; that’s the first thing I do. I have this funny thing when we first start. ‘Cause I really don’t care what level people are at – it makes no difference to me. I’m going to coach you; I’m going to give you a 1 or 10. So I kind of defuse that by saying, “Look, we’re here now, and you’ve all given me your money. So I don’t care if you’re good or not.” Elizabeth: (Laughs) I love it. Andrew: You know what I mean? I have your money. I’m happy. Elizabeth: Ka-ching! Ka-ching! Andrew: My job is to take your money first. Elizabeth: Then it’s up to you. Over to you! Take One – is it Take One? Andrew: Yep, yep, so … but what I get is, I don’t care when people get up. I’m like, if you need to read off your script, if you want me to prompt you, I don’t care if you can’t even say your name. Like some people can’t – some people can’t even get up and say their name, they’re so nervous. And I’m like, I don’t care – that’s where you start. That’s it. So on a scale of 1 to 10 I’m going to give you a point five or a one. And now my job’s to get you to a 5, to a 10. Elizabeth: So what I’m now interested to know is, what is a 10? Andrew: A 10 is someone who’s very confident and keeps me – a 10 really keeps me on my toes. When you’re a 10, meaning you’re a very, very good presenter, my job is now to dig in and bring more of that personality out. Elizabeth: Who is a 10? So that people can know. Not a personally popular 10, but a mainstream 10. There’s ‘Oprah 10’ … who’s a 10? Andrew: You know some of those presenters from Top Gear? You know they bring that X-Factor – you see their personalities. Because there’s the old American style of presenting, where it’s cameras on, and all of a sudden there’s this fake personality. Elizabeth: And you can see that. Andrew: You can see that. It’s like “bang, bang, bang”. And that’s not presenting. That’s cookie cutter. And that’s almost like Step One of what you do. What we want is bring the personality. Because when it comes down to it, if you’re auditioning or you’re doing a presentation, what people are engaged by is your personality, your X-Factor. Elizabeth: Oh. Really interesting. Okay. Andrew: The reason for Darren and the Corporate Dog – I have this wonderful vision that I’m very excited about is doing a one-man stage show, and it’s just a storytelling. I stand at an altar with a big old dusty book which I will create myself, and I tell my fairytale, which is 45 minutes long. The purpose of it is to bring adults down to a sense of being children again. So it’s to let go of being adults – no bills, no mortgages, no responsibility. And for 45 minutes, just entertain using obviously audio and animation behind to drive the story, just old-fashioned storytelling. And that excites me – that’s my passion project. Elizabeth: That would be captivating. Andrew: Yeah. And again, you could have beautiful cute little venues. First 5,10,15 minutes would be spent talking about getting people to use their imagination again. ‘Remember what you were like when you were 5 years old’, and setting that scene, and getting adults to remember what it was like to play again and be silly and have no responsibilities. And then go, “Right. Now my audience is ready. Let’s go.” Elizabeth: You know, you know lots of famous people. So tell me about that. Is being famous an impediment, ‘cause you know, so many people want to be famous, but when you get down to it, do you want to be famous? Andrew: Okay, so there’s a difference. There’s people, and this is – I was speaking to my actress friend here – I won’t mention her name – on Saturday. And she said, the biggest difference is now compared to when she first started acting, was people want to be celebrity before they become actor, so an artist. Elizabeth: So, could we have an example of that? Kardashians? Andrew: Kardashians is a good one. Reality TV is a shocker for that. I’ve had two periods of my life where I was – I use this word very loosely, but I guess people knew who I was. Elizabeth: Oh I’m so sorry I didn’t realize. (Laughs) Andrew: (Laughs) That’s alright. We’re in different countries. Elizabeth: And who were you, Andrew? Andrew: Well, that’s it. It wasn’t – I wasn’t … Elizabeth: Are you important, and I didn’t know? Andrew: Yes. (Laughs) Elizabeth: We need to define ‘important’, don’t we? You see, I think important people are people like paramedics and surgeons who save people’s lives, you know? Andrew: Absolutely. Elizabeth: But then I’m different. Andrew: But if you’re an artist – I rate writer and artist as the same thing because you’re reflecting life. Elizabeth: I’m being light. Andrew: Yes, yes, yes. But ‘celebrity’ – what’s a celebrity? You need to be someone who’s celebrated. Pure reality TV show person or something, it’s like “That’s your job. You got lucky, you’re in a TV show, you’re pretty much a nobody, you’re not really good at anything, but the camera’s following you. And that’s why people know you.” Elizabeth: It’s false elevation. Andrew: I remember it was in 2001, and I was kind of hitting my stride. I was working with Ryan Gosling on Hercules. I won Cleo ‘Bachelor of the Year’ in New Zealand. I shot documentaries and a TV series called Shortland Street which is like our Neighbours. Do you know what, and I started to get all this work, but just doing stupid stuff that I wasn’t actually needed to be skilled at. I’m turning into the kind of person that I ridicule myself that you see on TV or magazines. Elizabeth: Is it like that song Popular by Darren Hayes? Do you know that song? Andrew: No. Do you want to know what I did? Elizabeth: Yes. Andrew: I moved to an island called Waiiti Island off the coast of Auckland. It’s about an hour on a ferry. I got a little house, I grew a beard, I got an amazing vegetable garden. Elizabeth: Does this mean you grew your own vegetables? Andrew: I grew my own vegetables. I lived there for two years, and I did nothing but write and try to identify what I wanted to do as an artist. And there was one day I was standing outside and I was speaking to a man who was my neighbor, over some shrubs, and I realized I was talking to this stranger – naked. I was naked. It was hot, you know, and I just stopped wearing clothes. Elizabeth: Totally? Totally naked? Andrew: Yeah, yeah, yeah. I was on an island. Elizabeth: Did he notice? You had a fig leaf …? Andrew: No. (Elizabeth: No fig leaf?) That was the thing. I was so used to letting it all go. And it just dawned on me: “Andrew, you’re only 28. There’s time to get off the island. There’s time to go, buddy.” I got off the island pretty quick. I moved into this new house with these two girls, and for about a month they were like … Elizabeth: Had you not dressed for this too? It was colder there. Andrew: I was dressed, but I was always going outside to pee on the lawn. And they were like, “Andrew, can you use the toilet?” So I told myself I’ve got to get out of this habit; it’s okay. I’m just adjusting to normal life again. Elizabeth: And what’s normal? Andrew: Yeah, what’s normal? Elizabeth: What really grabs me about that story is that you were aware enough to know that you needed to change. Andrew: Yes. Elizabeth: And not everybody is that aware. And why are you that aware? Is it because of your dad? Is it because of your upbringing? You can sense bullshit basically. Andrew: I can. Elizabeth: You have got this really sensitive BS detector. Andrew: You know I’ve only just … I was talking to my little brother about this a few weeks ago, I’ve only just realized what a quality and an asset is, and that I am highly sensitive. Even a year ago, I didn’t realize it was such an asset … Elizabeth: It is. Andrew: As to what I do now, and I’m really starting to embrace it. Elizabeth: That’s fantastic. The civilized word for that, everybody, is ‘discernment’. Andrew: Discernment. Elizabeth: Yes, discernment. And also civilized people using the toilet rather than the lawn, Andrew. Andrew: Yes. Well, I’ve got that under control now. Elizabeth: Oh, that’s nice to know. (Laughs) Andrew: Look, the entertainment industry, if you’re talking about that specifically, it’s just so much bullshit involved. And we talked about my earlier experience, but I had another experience in 2008, 9, 10, when I was really on a roll acting, presenting and public speaking. And again I went away, this time to Bali. Elizabeth: Which is where you live now, isn’t it. Andrew: I live half-and-half. Elizabeth: Half and half New Zealand. Andrew: Was New Zealand and Bali, and now it’s going to be Australia. Yes, I’m after a bigger market, which is here. Elizabeth: ‘Cause this is important for the woman who’s coming on the scene. So we’re looking at Victoria, or we’re looking at Sydney? Andrew: Melbourne. Elizabeth: Melbourne. Oh, okay. Andrew: The thing I like about the entertainment industry … Elizabeth: We do have good weather, you know. Andrew: In Melbourne? You’re the first person that’s said that. Elizabeth: I’m Melbourne through and through. Andrew: That’s beautiful. Makes me feel like home. Melbourne I feel like I’m home – I don’t know why. My dad grew up here. Elizabeth: Did he really? Whereabouts? Andrew: He actually told me yesterday and I can’t remember. About an hour out. Elizabeth: Out where – north, south, east, west? Andrew: Out towards the … Dande … Dande … Elizabeth: Dandenong? Andrew: The Dandenongs. Mountains. Elizabeth: Oh, I lived there once. Stunning place. Andrew: Mm, yes. Elizabeth: Okay. So – the entertainment industry is full of people with lack of discernment. They believe their own B.S. Is that it? Andrew: Umm, yeah, yeah. At the end of the day you’ve got to just go: “This is TV – this is just a job. I’m an artist, and if I get work I’m lucky.” Elizabeth: Why do they believe it? Is it that adulation that they get? Andrew: It is the adulation and look, I can relate to that. The ego is an amazing driver. And in my twenties and thirties it was my ego getting me out of bed. It was like, “Right. You wanted that. You wanted people to know who I am.” It was the adulation. Elizabeth: Why do you want people to know who you are? I’m sorry I didn’t know who you were, Andrew. (Laughs) Andrew: Because it’s a feeling – it’s self-esteem, isn’t it. A sense of self-love. It’s like if people adore you, it helps boost that sense of self-worth. Elizabeth: I find that false. Andrew: Of course it’s false. Elizabeth: Having been a school nurse and really looking at children – you mentioned you were five – and nurturing their self-esteem, and how important it is. That doesn’t come from outside. That comes from inside. Andrew: Always inside out. Elizabeth: But we’re not taught that. Andrew: No, we’re not. So what we’re taught - in a way that makes no sense to me – we’re taught that your career, what other people think of you, what you own, where you live – that defines who you are. But if you look at it from a deeper perspective, your outside world actually affects your inside, and you’re in control of that, and no one teaches you that at school. Elizabeth: That’s why everybody needs coaches. Andrew: Your sense of self-love, self-awareness, your sense of freedom, all your values start from inside out. When you’ve got that glowing and growing inside you, your outside world reflects that. Elizabeth: You’ve got so many important messages to bring to the world, Andrew. It’s a very exciting time for you. Andrew: It is, it is. Elizabeth: That’s fantastic. That’s great. Andrew: Thank you. Elizabeth: What is one of the most inspirational achievements one of your clients have made after working with you? Andrew: Before I even became a coach, I used to be able to get a lot of people to quit their jobs. Like I’m just very passionate, and when someone would talk to me about their job, I’d go – ‘cause it’s very usual in the Western world for people to go “Hey, what do you do?” And I never ask that ‘cause I really don’t care. It means nothing to me. Elizabeth: Yeah, I know. What question do you ask? Andrew: If I was going to ask, it would be “If you could do anything, what would you do?” Elizabeth: Okay. And would you be impressed if they say “I’m actually doing it”? Andrew: Yes, yeah. Like I’ve got a lot of people to quit their jobs and start following their passion. For me, I’m dealing with clients, it’s managing them through their zone of fear, resistance and self-sabotage which we all go through, and understanding that process of … When I did this whole coaching thing, I was like “I don’t want to deal with people’s problems.” Because I don’t want to sit and Skype and go to workshops and deal with people’s problems all day. So unless the first person, that’s the first thing they want to talk about - “This is what I don’t want”, I’m not interested. “What do you want?” Elizabeth: Exactly. Andrew: When I know what you want, we can create that – we can work towards that and shape you. And that’s exciting. And of course when you go there, you’ve got to create that vision of where you want to go that’s so bold, exciting and fun, that your mind is tricked to go, “Oh, do you know what? This looks like fun. Let’s go there. That’s nothing – this is safe.” Because your mind isn’t built for success. It doesn’t know what the hell success is. Success to your mind is being alive for your mind, right? The fact that we’re sitting here talking, your brain is giving yourself a high-five, saying “Yep! You’re still alive!” Elizabeth: (Laughs) That’s because I’m a human. Andrew: Yes. Elizabeth: Cleo – what did you say? – Cleo Bachelor of the Year? What year was that? Andrew: 2001. (Laughs) Fifteen years ago. Elizabeth: Wow. There’ll be a lot of jealousy on the other side of this podcast, I can tell you that. Andrew, one of my favourite books is Illusions by Richard Bach. What is one of your favourites? Andrew: Just off the top of my head, there’s many, many books – one is Badjelly the Witch (by Spike Milligan), for the reason that it makes me laugh. It’s just a child who is silly. It means nothing. There’s not even a message behind the story. It’s just someone’s random creative strain of thought. I just think it’s hilarious. Elizabeth: I love to laugh. Very important thing to do. Andrew: It’s the audio – and you know what it reminds me of? Why I love it so much is it reminds me of when I was a little kid – when I was five, six, seven - and my dad would come into my room in Otaio, and tuning in the radio. Because at that time we only had like one or two channels, Channel One and Channel Two in New Zealand. (Elizabeth: Oh, you’re spoiled!) And TV didn’t start till like eight in the morning or seven in the morning, so there was nothing else to watch except Freddo Rock and The Muppets. And then dear dad would come in and tune in the radio, and it was Saturday or Sunday morning storytelling time, and I would lie in bed and listen to that. That’s one of my favourite memories of my childhood. Elizabeth: That’s a lovely memory to have. What is Darren the Corporate Dog doing for Christmas? And I notice you haven’t invited him to your family celebration. Isn’t that a bit mean? Andrew: Mm. Elizabeth: Do you think Darren has a plan to combat your exclusion tactics? Andrew: Look, at the end of the day, Darren and I do have a very wonderful relationship and he’s everything that – he’s kind of like no responsibility – he’s Andrew with no responsibility. Elizabeth: Well, he’ll love Christmas then, and all the gift wrapping. Andrew: Yes, and he’ll be there. He’ll be there at Christmas for sure. Do you know what’s wonderful about Darren is that, he just doesn’t think that people will speak ill of him, or they would say no. So he’s got that blind sense of faith. Elizabeth: Innocence, isn’t it? That’s innocence. Childlike innocence. Andrew: When I did tell him that – he said can I come for Christmas and I said “not an effing chance” – he wouldn’t have taken it as no. He would have thought “Haha, he’s joking. See you there.” So he will be there at Christmas time. Elizabeth: Oh, okay, I’m pleased to hear that. Victoria will be with us too. Victoria the Cat, who’s in my book Chantelle’s Wish. Andrew: Actually I’m sure Darren will get along. Elizabeth: With Victoria the Cat? Andrew: Yes. Elizabeth: Oh, Victoria the Cat’s a good one. Andrew: But I’ve got a bit of a treat for Darren. I don’t know if you saw, but when I was in Spain I got a bit drunk and slept on the couch, and he drew all over my face. I don’t know if you remember that. Elizabeth: No, I didn’t see that. You never sent me … Andrew: He wrote ‘I Love Darren’ on my face and forehead, and gave me a dog’s tongue and whiskers. Elizabeth: You’ll have to send me the picture. Andrew: And I’m going to shave his fur off. Elizabeth: Oh! Is he going to be awake or drunk? Andrew: I’m going to wait till he’s drunk. He’s always drunk. It’s his favourite pastime. Elizabeth: So send me the picture. I missed it. Andrew: I’ll do that. Elizabeth: Thank you. So Andrew, this is a signature question I ask all my guests: What do you wish for, for the world, and most importantly for yourself? Andrew: For the world, I just wish that all of us would use our God-given talents, our unique gifts, to be of service to the world, and I feel like if we were all doing that, the world would organically go in the right positive direction. And that would also mean a lack of corporate greed, the raping and pillaging of the earth … I know that we are not here to work in the system that we’re currently working in. The human wasn’t designed for that. And we have far greater possibility than what we’re showing at the moment. What I’d love for the world is for the next generation and the next generation to start to push the boundaries, and to do what we were actually designed to do, which is evolve. And not evolve in a way that’s three percent growth in a year in the corporate world. Elizabeth: That would be so not the GDP. We’re talking about – there are a lot of children around, and when you have your child, you will learn this: they are highly evolved. Andrew: Yeah, yeah. I can feel it. A lot of my clients for my market in my life coaching side of things, are Y Generation, and when I did my research, nearly every single one – I said “What do you want? What’s the ultimate thing you want to do?” – they said, “I want to make a positive impact on the world.” Elizabeth: Wow. Andrew: And you don’t get that – if I can f**king be as bold – with baby boomers. And even from my generation … Elizabeth: It’s your show. You can say whatever you want, even swear. Andrew: From my generation, a little bit more. But from the next generation, even more. And I think, must be very hard for them to – I can understand where the system came from. And how my parents were so – I’m not for – but this was what you do. After World War One and Two you know, this is how everyone’s going to work. But they’re wising up. Elizabeth: People are waking up. Andrew: They’re waking up – that’s a better word. We’re waking up; we’re evolving. We’re spiritual beings. What if at school, you were taught that via the mind, we can actually have and do whatever we want, you know. And I’ll just go in another direction, but you know, teenage suicide is off the charts – and why is that? They’re actually becoming highly sensitive beings, but they haven’t been taught what that means or how the mind works. Elizabeth: See, I see you as an incredible mentor for young men – a powerful mentor for young men. Andrew: It’s funny you say that, because a lot of people keep telling me to work with young men. But I love working with young women as well. (Laughs) I love working with women in general, because I have a nice relationship with women. But I like to work with young women and young men. Elizabeth: Well I think … Andrew: But I know exactly what you’re saying. That makes sense. In fact, the first time ever you saying that to me then just made more sense. Elizabeth: Thank you. I’ll take that as a compliment. Andrew: There you go. That’s 4 to 1 so far. Elizabeth: Andrew Eggelton, thank you so much for joining me on Writers’ Tête-à-Tête with Elizabeth Harris. Thanks for tuning in everyone, and may your wishes come true. Andrew: Thank you for having me. [END OF TRANSCRIPT]
Today's EpisodeWell, look at that, 2016 is almost done. Isn't it glorious? Yes! This episode is going to be looking ahead to the tech future! Plus, some tech news. I will look back at what happened in 2016 and what I want to see in 2017. There are just some things that need to die… Flash! Please finally go away! Plus, these dubious bullying rules and “fake news.” I'm looking at you Facebook and Twitter. I want these social networks to stop policing and get rid of tailoring feeds. Tailored feeds are what got us into this hyper drama culture we face. I always think fake news is subjective to the person. We want to believe in what most people deem true. Now, that doesn't mean I don't think there aren't some universal truths. I'm tired of one side calling the other side's reporting fake. That's not a debate and we need to be open to the opposing opinion. However, I do concede there are some sites that do misleading headlines and poor research skills, but, that is a minority. Let's hope some of this gets resolved in 2017!Show Timeline:South Korea fines QualcommSylvania smart bulb connects to Apple Homekit Amazon sells more Echo's this holiday seasonTwitter releases new 360 live videoFirefox to stop support for Windows XP and Vista in 2017A cool new mechanical SNES keyboard.Looking back on the yearWhat tech future can I find in 2017Apps/Programs to Try this Week:Raspi BoyPostBot 3 for InstagramTrackyBeLiveExactoMarkdHighlights of the Show:This SNES mechanical keyboard is bringing back all the fond memories!I think 2017 is AMD's year.I really want us all to stop finding drama everywhere in 2017.Support:Like these podcasts?

How long did the whole process took to figure out how to turn gas motorcycles to electric ones? Shlomo: Why do you think, electric bikes are taking so long to take off?

Podcast:Andrew Mitchem interviews client making 24% per yearWhat's it take to become a profitable Forex trader? Let's talk about that and more right now.Hi, traders this is Andrew Mitchem here, the Forex Trading Coach. I'm coming from the iFX EXPO in Hong Kong where I‘ve been here for the last three days at the expo. I gave a speech yesterday talking about Forex within the Asian region. You can see that on my Facebook page if you want to have a look at that.What I wanted to do is talk about a person I bumped into here at the expo. His name is Alex. Alex is from India. He came up to me and said, "Andrew, I've been wanting to meet you for a number of years, and I'm glad to finally meet you." Alex is a client of mine. He joined my course back in 2012. Alex started my course back then not knowing anything at all about Forex trading. Here we are, three and a half years after he joined, he's noq managing funds for people for over four hundred people and he's now a full-time trader. He's made twenty-four percent per year for the last two years. This year he's aiming to push that up to around thirty-six percent return for his clients.Not only was it an absolute thrill for me to meet him, because I'm so pleased to meet someone who's doing so well, and meet him in person, but the interesting part that I got out of the conversation with Alex was that it shows that anybody can become a good Forex trader if you put the time and the effort in, and the dedication. Alex, came to me, as I said, three and a half years ago not knowing anything at all about Forex. He was brand new. He said, in his own words, that he'd spent about a year to year and a half going through my course, watching videos, attending webinars, logging into my website daily, using my help, emailing me. It took that length of time. Now he's achieving something that's beyond his wildest dreams. His business is growing and growing, as you would expect with a twenty-four percent return for two years running. Bear in mind he's only risking a quarter to a half of one percent in trade. He's extremely low draw downs and making massive gains. It's just fantastic to see that.What I wanted to let you know with that is that this can be achieved, and it can be achieved with very low risk, but first of all you need that time and the effort into the trading before that happens.Apart from meeting Alex, I've also met a lot of great people within the industry. I'm not knocking trade shows, but it's very noticeable how a few people here that I've met actually are traders. Unfortunately it's a fact. It's a lot of brokers, it's a lot of people promoting software, promoting all sorts of things. That's fine. It takes all sorts of people within the industry, but there's very few people that are actively trading. It's one thing that was nice for myself to meet other traders, and of course, Alex himself. It just goes to show really how valuable education is.It's one of the things I took from this session, because it's not an easy thing to trade Forex. There's lots of people that have tried, lots of people that have failed. The story just repeats itself. The people who put the effort in, the people that sought good education, are the people that make the money from Forex and last at it, and it helps change their lives just like Alex's life has changed.If it's something that you'd like to know more about, what I encourage you to do is have a look at my website and go and look at Alex's interview. He was kind enough to spend about five minutes with me, and we had a chat on film. I recorded the session. It talks about his background and how he joined my course and how things have changed for him.If that's something you'd like to know more about, what I encourage you to do is have a look at one of my free webinars that I hold each week, whether you're a new trader or experienced trader,
