Find Your Voice, My Plan For The Next 12 Months

In this post, I’m going to share with you the next 12 months of my podcast plan for my website, before I am even ready to go. Even just writing that hurts. The next 12 months are about “how to find your voice” something I have been procrastinating on for years. Leading with a “find your voice” topic is hard for me. I always think I should have 'found my voice’ before talking about how you might find yours. But both of those are wrong. Building The Plane All the people I deeply admire and

One Easy Thing You Can Do To Come Alive

Time spent on courses in Fizzle, Creative Class, Collaboration Superpowers and Rainmaker deeply helped define this. Where To Start? Have you ever thought about something so much that when the time comes you are paralysed? It'

My Miracle Morning

I have been working on this 'Miracle Morning' thing for ages and now I have it down to a fine art. I know the title sucks and sounds like a coked up TGI Friday's waitress called Polly Anna but it works. Every day I wake up between 5am and 6am, more often 5am and before anything can happen I start listening to an audio version of 12 Week Year, then from there I leap into the kitchen and down a pint of cold water.
