Join Pete as he speaks to entrepreneur, founder and director Stephen Rudolf.
Stephen talks to Pete all about his journey to the realisation that he had much to learn as well as teach eventually leading to the development of his programme: Feed Your Tigers.
ABOUT THE GUEST
Steven Rudolph
Founder-Director,
Multiple Natures International
www.feedyourtigers.com, www.multiplenatures.com
In 1989, while pursuing a career in music in New York, Steven Rudolph took up a part-time teaching job to make ends meet. In his first class, he had an epiphany: that he had an innate capacity to teach. Though he had no formal training, it was as if he already knew how to do it. The realization led him on a 21-year quest to India, where he uncovered 5,000-year-old secrets to self-understanding and achieving one's potential. He later found that the same discoveries made by the ancients about human nature were consistent with what modern neuroscientists had to say about how the brain functions. Steven has crafted those principles into an easy-to-use, enjoyable program--Feed Your Tigers. Steven lives in Cambodia where he serves as CEO of Multiple Natures International and explores how ancient Eastern wisdom can help people (and their tigers) become more aligned.

Jeff Cohen is an entrepreneur, author, business coach, writer and speaker. Jeff works with CEOs and small and midsize businesses that are interested in growing into the new culture we are seeing post-pandemic.
He talks to Pete about leadership, vulnerability and how we can all shift our mindset to create working environments where everyone feels valued and want to work.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
Post-pandemic people are re-assessing their lives and deciding what they really want. This means businesses have to start adapting and changing to continue to recruit good candidates. Jeff’s life has been a contrast between great success and big failure. He has had to overcome a lot of knockbacks in his life. When Jeff first ran his own business, he felt he had to be the most important person in the business. He now knows this was a huge mistake and ensures his clients don’t make the same problem for themselves. Your children will model your behaviours, if you want them to spend time with you as teens and adults, invest your time with them when they are young. Jeff advocates allowing your employees to not be accountable but instead “Account-on-able”, eliminating the restrictive nature of being accountable and instead being empowered and passionate about the work they do. The number one thing is for people to have the confidence to say no. This confidence is filtered down to people from the leader. You need to aim to align your people with the things they do best, this allows them to feel both valuable and valued. As a leader, if you want to trust both ways, then you can’t just boss people around, you have to be vulnerable and show that vulnerability to your people too.BEST MOMENTS
“It’s ok for me to actually accept the love”“It’s a shift in the mindset, it’s a shift in the way you operate”
“We hire people and we don’t know what their strengths are”

Stacy is the founder and CEO of journey fuel and a life transformationalist. She has been helping people transform their lives for over 20 years.
She joins Pete to talk about how she is on a mission to share her knowledge with as many people as she can, how she developed her unique set of skills and why she has such a passion for personal development.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
Fire in the belly to Stacy relates directly to fire in the soul and that we need fire in the soul to live our best life. Being able to feel like this life is about something you want to live and experience. It was a decade ago when Stacy was burning out, this is when she realised, she needed to change things in her life, she just needed to figure out how. There are often many more options available to us in life, to change things, it just requires open-mindedness and reflection. If you are struggling to make decisions or feeling overwhelmed, Stacy advises you to think about how you feel right now and how you want to feel instead. This allows you to start evaluating options to get closer to what you want. The more choices that we make in alignment with what matters to us, the more we attract what and who we want in our lives. People go through life with a lot of ‘shoulds’. If you can start to change your ‘should do’ to wants instead it will help you have the motivation to change things.BEST MOMENTS
“Life’s a journey, enjoy the ride, but how do you enjoy the ride if you don’t have any fuel in your heart, in your soul”
“When you’re in that level of overwhelm, the idea of anything different, it can be paralysing”
“Life is a collection of feelings”
“What resources do I have available to me that will help me learn something about myself?

He joins Pete to talk about his journey into coaching, what he teaches and his own personal beliefs and values, particularly around personal freedoms.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
Fire in the belly is your purpose, it’s you why, why you do what you do. Nicky says his fire has never gone out, there has been times where it has burnt bright as well as dimmed because of tough times and adversity, but it is always there. Nicky believes that fewer than 10% of people get to live their true purpose and this is down to how we are conditioned by society, including governments. There was a time when people sought the difficult, to achieve But, now we are in a world of convenience. But if we want to live a better life, a great life, then we need to force ourselves out of our comfort zones. There’s resistance in all of us and it rears its head whenever you have a big task ahead of yourself. You have to push past this. You have to fight resistance every day. Nicky is a 7-time author, he loves book writing and already has plans for his next three books. We live in a free market society, Ryan believes making money is a way to give you freedom, this is the reality of the world we live in.BEST MOMENTS
“Free enterprise is the most important freedom after freedom of expression”“People are being told to be sheep and not think for themselves”
“Seek the difficult, seek the uncomfortable, seek what scares you because that’s going to make you better”
“You can only win if you recognise that it (resistance) is there and you continue on, you don’t let resistance win”

Paul went from working as a stockbroker for a major firm to being a full-time entrepreneur. He now specialises in helping other entrepreneurs fix their finances and teaches them to buy assets to create passive income.
Paul talks to Pete about how he got to where he is today, his businesses and why everyone should be trying to learn as much as they can about money and finance.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
Fire in the belly to Paul is the thing that drives you, that helps you strive for the things you want in life. When Paul found jujitsu, he found out how to master his life. He found a way to feel and channel his competitiveness whilst humbling himself at the same time. It also taught him problem solving skills as well as how to strive to do better. Because Paul was never taught anything about money or finances, he now feels obligated to teach the people he meets as much as he can, so they can benefit from the knowledge he now has. The pandemic hit Paul and his businesses hard but luckily as he was based in Texas, the restrictions were lifted fairly early on so they were able to recover. Money just amplifies who you are. Money doesn’t make you a bad or a good person, it just amplifies who you already are! Have a long-term plan for your stocks and don’t get emotionally attached. Post-Pandemic, Paul has diversified his investments and also focuses on his fundamentals, his basics. This way he feels more protected whilst making his money work for him. When doing more riskier investments, Paul always keeps it in his head that he should only invest what he is willing to lose. There is a lot of misinformation about finance and investments out there, this is something Paul often has to battle with when trying to teach his clients what is the best plan for their money.
BEST MOMENTS
“I’ll never stop working, I’m wired that way”
“When I got better at jujitsu I got better at life”
“It’s such an important thing to have a strong financial understanding of the world and money”

Jim is an author and polymathic intellectual, he has successfully trained and treated clients over a 40-year career, his areas of expertise include psychology, physiology, science engineering math, law, septemics and more!
He joins Pete to talk all about one of the newest social sciences, Septemics and his process in writing the book on the subject as well as his own personal journey.
https://septemics.com
KEY TAKEAWAYS
Septemics is a social science, focused around the hierarchies of human phenomena. By learning the levels and areas within the variety of scales, allows individuals and groups of people to understand, predict and manage human behaviour. Finding out someone’s motivation and belief is incredibly powerful information and Jim believes you can do this in a matter of minutes if you have learnt how. In the septemics book, Jim has included a glossary for every single chapter including the introduction, to make it as accessible as possible to everyone and eliminate any ambiguity. Although a lot of the information was pre-existing, Jim spent 20 years writing the 87,000 word book, to ensure it would be able to be interpreted in the right way by the reader. It can be hard for people who are rational to understand people who are self-sabotaging. But once you can understand that you can recognise it for what it is and see it at face-value. The Septemics book allows you to see what levels/scales people are on and recognise what you would previously believe to be random behaviour. It is a well known fact int he mental health community that sociopaths and psychopaths don not improve in therapy, this is because they are at the bottom of the 'scale' and 'level'. They are too far down to be helped.BEST MOMENTS
“Just finding out what level you, another person is by itself enlightening and beneficial”“When you find out someone’s motivation, that’s really powerful information”
“The book is explicit in telling you how to study it, how to approach is, how to use it on yourself and on others”
“A book is never really complete in the mind of an author”
"People like that aren't really reaching out for help anyway"

Claire is a digital strategy coach for solo-preneuers. She helps people market and sell their services online by connecting with their strengths and core values.
She joins Pete today to talk about what she does for her clients, how she learnt everything she knows, her passions as well as her thoughts of the negativity online and its impact on digital strategy.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
One of the cornerstones if what Claire does, is guide her clients into using empathy to gain an understanding of their customers perspective. She helps them translate their expertise into a language their audience will understand. Claire likes to get into the heads of other people to see the world from their perspective and their point of view. The delivery of an idea is just that, what matters the most is getting the concept right in the first place. To ensure that the message you are giving and sending out to your clients is right. Concept and meaning has always been Claire’s area of joy, right back to when she first started studying graphic design. You need to feel ownership of your business or brand, this is where Claire’s guidance comes in. To help you learn what will be effective for you and your brand/business. It’s not always necessary to be doing anything and everything. It can be much more effective to focus on fewer core activities, focusing on where your audience is. Bullies and unkind people have always existed but the internet has given many people an anonymous platform where they can do more damage and cause a lot of disruption. If you have an opinion about something as well as the confidence to be bold, this can be a way to gain more of a following on social media. There is no one else in the world like you apart from you. Spend time connecting with what you are trying to say and what is unique about you and use this in your social media strategy.BEST MOMENTS
“Digital strategy is making the best use of your resources to achieve a specific goal”“You need to always be stepping into your clients’ shoes”
“Trolls are someone opposing the person and what they are standing up and saying”
“It’s about connecting with the person you’re trying to reach that you know you can help, that needs to hear this and serving them”
“The best person you can help is the person you were 3 or 4 years ago”

Briana is a coach, nutritionist and speaker. After years of struggling with her own self-esteem, Briana wanted to help other women with emotional and binge eating issues.She talks to Pete today about her own journey to healing, how she managed to overcome her own trauma and difficulties and how her life purpose is to help others.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
Fire in the belly to Briana, is the thing that gets you up in the morning, the thing you feel compelled to do. Briana becomes the coach her clients need first, she then works with them to meet their goals and needs. For years, Briana struggled with her relationship with food and her body image. Like many women she had insecurities and was either battling with restrictive eating or binge eating. If you have created the habit to use food to solve our emotions, you can become confused with what feels like ‘cravings’ but is actually disordered eating. You need to develop self-worth that isn’t tied to food, how you eat or your body. You then need to learn how to deal with your emotions without food. It was after losing a lot of weight, something Briana believed would bring her peace and happiness, that she realised that weight had nothing to do with how she felt about herself. It was time to try something different. Socially women have been conditioned by diet culture, which makes their relationships with food frequently difficult and complicated. Trauma doesn’t have to be ‘big’. Often smaller situations and trauma create these unhealthy eating habits, because we have learnt to deal with our emotions via food. Journaling is one of the tools Briana used to change her mindset and thinking around food. Personal development and self-improvement was always something Briana had been interested in, it was when she got her own coach that she really started to understand the power of working with someone else on your development.BEST MOMENTS
“It’s almost your duty to help them be who they need to be, it’s a much bigger purpose than you”“Healing my relationship with food required healing my relationship with myself”
“Women are incredibly good at being astonishingly hard on themselves”
“I didn’t have much of a career to draw upon, it was just my own experience”

Ryan went from being a broke and homeless to becoming an award winning entrepreneur, peak performance coach, public speaker and podcast host!
He joins Pete in this episode to talk all about his journey from the bottom to the top, his personal philosophies, what he teaches others and more.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
Fire in the Belly to Ryan means being committed to something and having a real purpose. It’s a feeling where you don’t allow barriers to stop you, that you are focused on your goals and moving forward. Focusing on the impact you and your business matters. Money is great of course but for Ryan, the impact he has on others and the world and the legacy he is leaving behind matters most. Faith, family, wisdom and generosity and Ryan’s main values. They are what are important to him and interestingly are mostly related to ‘service’. It’s easy to get caught in the trap that more money or more status will make you happy. But this isn’t the case, be happy wherever you are now and ensure you are fulfilled. One of the things Ryan teaches his coaching clients is the power of their own mindset. You can choose to be happy you just need to learn how to do it. There’s a difference between goals and a vision. Both are important but goals are 12 months or less and are strategic, vision is generally 3+ months away and inspirational. A series of powerful decisions allowed Ryan to pick himself up after hitting his lowest. Two of the biggest decisions he attributes to getting him to where is now is hiring a coach and attending a mastermind with two of his mentors.BEST MOMENTS
“I definitely believe I am where I am supposed to be right now”
“Learning from the other people is like the ultimate shortcut”
“Success without fulfilment is the ultimate failure”
“You can choose to be happy wherever you are in life right now”
“I’d never been around someone really successful, I was trying to do things on my own”ABOUT THE HOST

Patricia is a mother, grandmother and has been a hairdresser for over 40 years. She has always known there was something in her desperate to get out but couldn’t place what it was. It was after two abusive marriages and focusing on personal development and self-discovery that Patricia realised her passion and purpose in life was to help others.
She joins Pete in this episode to talk all about her life, including the difficulties she has faced and what led her to leading the life she always desired.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
Patricia has struggled with self-esteem and confidence her whole life it was this and bullying she suffered that caused her to have an eating disorder. When she met her husband, Patricia thought she had found love but it turned into an abusive marriage. After finding the strength to leave with 4 of her 5 children, Patricia went into a women’s refuge. After leaving her husband, Patricia used drink to cope, something she had also done in her teenage years. Patricia got married for a second time, she had a sixth child but devastatingly this marriage was also abusive. The life Patricia was living, with failed marriages, abuse and alcohol dependence was something she desperately wanted to leave behind but she didn’t know how. 4 ½ years ago she managed to stop drinking and her life has turned around. She joined AA and began working on herself. 2 years ago Patricia did a course in RTT, a type of hypnotherapy which started her fascination with the mind and how our brains work as human beings. Helping people, particularly women, from toxic life and situations into success, is what gives Patricia fire in her belly. Patricia bears no grudges or bad feelings towards past events, including her ex-husbands. She understands that life happens and she can’t take back her past, she can only move forward. When people self-sabotage it’s not intentional, it’s often a coping mechanism where the individual doesn’t feel good enough. You have to be your true authentic self in order to learn to love yourself.BEST MOMENTS
“I just wanted someone to love me and to look after me”“I knew for years I didn’t want this life but I didn’t know how to get out of it”
“I’ve always been on a journey of personal development”

Devin Durrant – retired NBA player, current entrepreneur, author, family man. Devin comes on the show to discuss his recently published book, The Values Delta, which is about how we can make our values count to make more of a positive benefit in the world. We talk about how his childhood and family shaped his focus and made him hone his value system early on, and how he has been able to leverage his “spiritual values” to make the world a better place for others. I hope you enjoy our conversation as much as I did.
Often your achievements can be opportunities to thank other people for the ways they helped you realize your goal. Everything good in life comes from the help we receive from others. Hard work, team work, and discipline – things that Devin learned playing sports in his neighborhood growing up, are ways to improve your life everywhere. Cultivate relationships with people you like and whose values you share and watch your life blossom in a myriad of unexpected beautiful ways.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
+ You can not only work on your values, but see them improve, and thus improve your life and sense of fulfillment, by a scientific, experiential approach.BEST MOMENTS
“I've been very fortunate to be a mentor to younger people, in different settings. The flip side of that is, I have had just some remarkable mentors in my life that have helped me at different stages of life, given me direction and, and inspired me through their examples.” “What do I need to prioritize so I might be able to do a little bit better as an individual, as a husband, a father, a business owner?” “The constant for me is ‘how can I improve?’ How can I improve as an athlete, how can I improve as my parents’ son?…that's been a key element for me. What I've learned over time and as an adult, is: we tend to become what we think about. So I'm a big believer in trying to focus on thoughts [that will take us] in positive directions.” “There's always a little bit more that you can offer. There's always some progress that needs to be made and there's always maybe something we need to repent, change and try to do a little bit better. And so that'll be my constant striving is yeah, I'm in a good place. But maybe to make my place better, I can help other people find that good place in their lives.”

First off, Bronson Hill is a successful, multi-family apartment investor, who left a $200K job in order to go into real estate, and now coaches other investors on how to reach that same level of success. But more than that, Bronson is a deeply spiritual person, whose faith informs everything he does. He knew early on that he was not willing to trade his time for his career, so he makes his money work for him. He has also traveled to over 30 countries, run obstacle courses, and, perhaps most importantly, become a present and engaged dad to his daughter, Ellie.
He has very unique, vulnerable perspectives on how we can make our pain our purpose, find success and soul while following our path, and I know you will get a lot out of our conversation. Please join us.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
Have good people around you so that when you go through challenging times, they can remind you of the “purpose beyond the pain”. Sometimes when you go through big seasons of change, you “lose” friends, or add others, and that is natural. Pay attention to the signs the world is giving you and you will know whether or not you are traveling the right path. Consistently check in with your soul to make sure your goals and purpose align with your ethics so that you don’t lose your soul/who you are to the world.BEST MOMENTS
I look at life as being an opportunity to walk in relationship with God. And so I pray, I ask, ‘Hey, what do you want me to do?’ I believe in this sense of divine purpose.” “Be sure you turn around and look at the progress that you have made. That will inspire you to take more steps and continue to be in motion, continue to take action.” [on affirmations] “I've watched as I've started saying those [affirmations], I've started to internalize, not only that the external things have changed – the net worth has changed, the growth, the job and all this stuff, that's great – but the most important thing is I really like who I am, I love what I bring to a room, I love what I bring to people.” “It sounds really morbid, but it's almost like…the level of success you want to have, or the level of achievement, or purpose, the ‘where do I want to go’...It's almost like the suffering has to equal that. I wish it weren't that way. But in a way, suffering has this way of [being like] a fire refining.”ABOUT THE GUEST
Bronson has never wanted to trade his time for money. A family member suggested he become a multi-family apartment holder. After meeting with a syndicator (someone who raises money to buy apartments) and raising a little capital of his own, Bronson was able to make that initial investment.
He has never lost sight of the goal to help others, and he wants to help others achieve their goals and experience true financial freedom.
Besides the passion for his career, Bronson is a fitness enthusiast who has done a lot of international traveling, and regularly performs music around Pasadena, where he lives. The light of his life is his daughter, Ellie.

I can’t say for sure but I think Jon Weberg may be the youngest guest we’ve ever had on this show. He’s already self-published a book, spoken to entrepreneurs at conferences across the U.S., and founded successful start-ups. Our conversation today is about focus, intention, making sure your actions match up to your intentions. You can be financially successful while being of service. It was my great pleasure speaking with Jon and, if you don’t know him yet, my great pleasure to introduce him to you.
Finding yourself is key to being happy because you save energy by not having to pretend anything, by being completely authentic. It’s not draining to chase dreams that you really want. Be somewhat of a scientist about your life: take notes on your goals and progress towards them, try to observe the effects of your decision-making in your everyday life. Being fulfilled in life is making progress.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
+ anything he creates, whether it be video, or written content, he always checks with himself first to see if it would help anyone.BEST MOMENTS
“In my business, and in anything I have almost ever achieved that’s important in my life, I have written it down at some point.” “I want to give and help and work with as many people as humanly possible because to me, there's nothing better in this world than making people smile, [making them] happy. “How can I think about this to make things better than they were, and move things forward?” “This ties directly back into the ethics of what is good, because if you're always valuing things that are good and valuable, you should most of the time do things that represent the valuable.”ABOUT THE GUEST
Unbeknownst to him, Jon had started on his path to being a multimillionaire entrepreneur and author by the age of 10, when he began doing online marketing, following in his father’s footsteps. Staying in a Duluth, Minnesota hotel when he was 14, he jotted down a few ideas for what would become Marketing Mastery Elite.
By the age of 20 he had written his first book, and was traveling across the U.S. speaking to aspiring entrepreneurs on how they could increase their own profits and ROI.

Claire Aughmuty is a force of nature. After a career as a nurse and a wife and mother, a broken ankle sustained during COVID helped turn her life around. It was during her convalescence, when she was forced to ask people for help to do things that she’d always taken for granted, that she started feeling reconnected to others – a part of a community. That experience helped her make the decision to start a second career as a divorce and break-up coach, to help others through an emotional and often confusing time that she went through. I just know you’ll enjoy our conversations.
If you want to change your life, why can’t you? Life is too short to feel boxed in by decisions you’ve outgrown. When we trust ourselves to make a good decision, it doesn’t matter what other people think. I can afford compassion for lots of people, but why not myself? You can change as a person if you let your defenses down.
KEY TAKEAWAYSBEST MOMENTS
“I had to leave my marriage to understand that I had no idea how to look after myself. No idea. So when I heard self care, I was like, ‘Well, I had a bath, that's fine.’ But I didn't understand self care at all.” “I understood ‘selfishness' to be making decisions that were about me. And that [was] a negative thing. You're very selfish for whatever it happens to be. And when you think like that, and other people say something like that, it's almost like it's glued with superglue to the word guilt. Guilt is not good. It's not a good emotion.” “But nearly every day, a different friend called in to help me with stuff. I remember probably about two months into my broken ankle, suddenly thinking, ‘I feel connected to my world for the first time in a way that I never did before.’ Because I couldn't do anything for myself; I couldn’t be independent. I needed other people to help; I had to ask and I had to receive. It’s very easy to give, but it’s a very different ballgame when you're on the receiving end and you need to ask. But [once] I learned how to do that my defenses came down.” “I look at the decisions I've made. And I think the decisions I've made have changed my legacy completely. My children's lives – they will work life differently. As I learn and grow, I teach them and show them. Who knows where they'll go in their future, where their children will go in the future?”ABOUT THE GUEST
Claire moved to Galway when she was eight and spent her childhood there, but also attended boarding school in Dublin. After attending nursing school, she was a nurse for a while, and then married, had a family, and has been living in the North Node for around 26 years. After a divorce, she reinvented herself as a coach to help others through their own break-ups on their journeys of re-discovery.

Jake Schmidt is passionate about marketing and business strategy, and prides himself on having been on the ground level of many products that have changed our culture. We have a fascinating conversation about business, passion, and when it’s time to go onto the next adventure.
Items with a mesmerizing quality do much better in ads, so that they “hypnotize” the viewer. Learn how to let go of things that have seen their day and move on, to apply the lessons to the next challenge. Being curious about things will bring you great rewards in the future. It’s okay to not have been the first person on the scene, because the first person conducted free research and development for you.
KEY TAKEAWAYSBEST MOMENTS
“I tried to just kind of flood the market with my videos and my concepts or my brand, physically. And by doing that, we were able to build the biggest brand. I think at our peak on Instagram, we had close to 150 or 200,000 followers.” “We're able to help so many people, which is just the coolest thing, seeing someone that's doing say $50-$60,000 a month, and they…have the right product, but they just don't know how to get to the next level. Taking them on this journey with us and setting up their proper email marketing strategy, SMS strategy, paid social strategy, and then letting them get to $500,000, $600,000, $700,000 a month in revenue, which we've done a few times.” “If you're not growing, you are dying. I think that is absolutely true. And there's been times in my life where I have felt like I'm not growing, and it's just a terrible feeling. Because I know that I'm gonna regret it. I know that life is short, and I want to be able to maximize and fulfill my potential.” “I'm looking actually at the ‘unit economics’ of your brand to make sure that it has what it takes to be scalable, and has what it takes to be this next big thing and if they don't have that then it's like ‘hey, you have some things that you need to fix here first before we can actually pour the gasoline on the fire’.”ABOUT THE GUEST
Jake has been an entrepreneur basically since the time he could speak. As a kid he loved playing video games and surfing the internet, which showed him early on the benefits of technology as a marketing tool. His greatest business accomplishment so far has been to figure out how to market the fidget spinner to a wider audience. He splits his time between NYC and LA.

Lewis Herridge is an ultra-marathoner, an outdoor enthusiast, someone passionate about rewilding himself and helping others to do the same. We have a fun, inspiring conversation about how we, as a society, can get back to a more natural way of living. Lewis sees a lot of correlation between the current mental health crises the world over and the way we eat and live essentially sedentary lifestyles. Through finding and following his joy, he wants to support and help others find theirs through outdoor exploration and adventures.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
Chase your joy, even if it doesn’t make sense to anyone else. Follow the little voice in your head {if you are feeling depressed and unhappy, that is a cue to change something about your circumstances} Our bodies can achieve a lot more than we ever dreamed, we just have to push ourselves a bit more than we are used to. We are living in an unnatural world (9-5, inside, sedentary lifestyles, etc). Through nutrition and lifestyle changes, and movement coaching, we can get back to a more “natural” way of living that will make us much happier people. The training for something gets to be more of a reward than the thing itself. If you’re not enjoying the journey, you can change direction.BEST MOMENTS
“I think my belief is that as soon as we started introducing agriculture…then we started attaching ourselves to that way of life, but we've always sort of got on fairly well and being quite connected to that [nomadic], natural sort of way of life. But things have accelerated with detaching ourselves even further in the last few decades.” “If you get the mind right, then the body follows on.” “That's what's needed on a big, global conscious level, you know, like: ‘stop, slow down, go into yourself, consider your own life.’’ And for some it might materialize as a bit of depression, or anxiety, or whatever at first. But don't run away from that. Because that's the opportunity to go within, isn't it, to go inside yourself and work through that.” “[I want to] help people revive body and mind for themselves. That is my purpose – how I do that is through connecting with nature, through[helping others to] reconnect with their own wild natures, and basically tuning into who they are.”ABOUT THE GUEST
Lewis had over 10 years as an outdoor adventure guide when his circumstances changed and he began working a “desk job” for a little while. He realized very quickly that the indoor, office environment wasn’t for him – he began feeling really depressed, wasn’t happy with his body, and felt isolated and disconnected.
He began to “rewild” himself by making time in the outdoors part of his routine once again, and a former alter ego, “The Outdoor Bloke” was reborn. Lewis has since started fitness and motivational coaching again, and rejuvenates his spirit whenever he needs by spending time outside. He lives outside Manchester with his wife and young daughter.CONTACT METHOD

Carol has a precious way of looking at life. After a decades’ long career helping businesses continue to innovate in the long-term, Carol has found an approach to her work that integrates her Mohawk First Nations heritage and “logical” business economics. She has been called a “positive contrarian” by peers and her students for how she tries to embed traditional, holistic teachings in modern-day theory. We have a wonderful conversation about how to exercise our own capabilities to find out what we are made of, how we can trade passion for more sustainable caring, and how to make the most out of every day by waking up with the aim of staying humble and to learn something new.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
Don’t trust someone immediately if they call themselves an expert without testing it through your own life experience first. Someone self-identifying as an expert might mean they’ve studied a fragment of something for a number of hours but they also have a bit of an ego about what they’ve learned. Go into each day open and willing to learn. You can't think that what you know right now is it, you have to be prepared for cracking open your own worldview. Work hard at figuring out a way of improving your own capability to test out ideas in the world and in real life, so you can find out what works for you. We are all connected. We have individual roles to play within our families, within our local communities, and we are affecting change within those structures that slowly ripple outwards.BEST MOMENTS
“Well, ego is a very useful instrument if my essence is in charge of it. So, ego in some traditions, and this is one that I question, is we have to kill ego. Well, that didn't quite make sense because ego for me has a couple of different directions:it can go toward arrogance and hubris, [the whole] “I'm the best thing since sliced bread”, or it can go toward courage, helping myself overcome that which I could be reactive to. Ego to me is an instrument of direction setting; it’s an instrument that we use to manage the parts of ourselves that are not useful.” “I remember one morning when I woke up and remembered a message from my grandfather about ‘what do you need to be humble about today? What do you need to be humble about? ‘So I started using that to ask [myself daily] what my aim should be.” I am often asked about what I am passionate about and have fire about. I always say, those are the things that get people in trouble, because we end up on a roller coaster, and things are great, and then things are low. What I really pursue is caring. I made it in a way of growing people. And I find that if I pay more attention to that than passion or fire, that I'm [going to have a more] stable energy.” “I had a grandfather who was part Mohawk, which is an Indigenous tribe here in the U.S., part of the Iroquois nation. And he was the one that taught me that idea. He said the calmness, the quiet allows you to see more and manage yourself in uncertainty and changing times. The way you want to do it is not to be subjected to whatever is out there pulling you or scaring you. And I have to tell you, it took a very long time to grow that in me.”ABOUT THE GUEST
Carol Sanford is a consistently recognized disruptor and contrarian working side by side with Fortune 500 and new economy executives in designing and leading systemic business change and design.

Neil and I talk a lot today about spirituality, power and purpose. How we are beings composed of unconditional love and divinity, and how we can spend our whole lives trying to remember that one unassailable fact. After a career in project engineering management, Neil put the decades he’d spent reading about and studying spirituality into a book of his own, called A Higher Road, which aims to break down how to achieve a soul integration in seven easy-to-follow steps. Please join us for a fascinating, in-depth conversation.
We are born as perfect reflections of the divine and then we accumulate these negative perceptions of ourselves. We can learn to identify and sweep away these perceptions through a meticulous, step-by-step process. Time is going to pass anyway, so if you have a decision to make, consider yourself in a few years either having accomplished “x,y.z” or wishing you had. Anything that is consistent with unconditional love will bring other things into your life that are in alignment with the divine. You won’t accomplish spiritual/self enlightenment in one magic moment, but you can commit to a lifetime process in a moment.
KEY TAKEAWAYSBEST MOMENTS
“We are born; our egos take control; and we become these method actors that don't understand our reality. Our reality is our soul. This is just a tool, this is a rented vehicle, this body. And the thing is we never step outside of that and go, ‘Oh, wait a minute, I'm just playing a role, I'm just learning lessons that I need to learn.’ I actually have this control of whatever it is that I'm doing. If I can keep that control, consistent with unconditional love, with all of the things that you know, are in this unified divine consciousness, then my life will be entirely different.” “All the safety, the peace, the security, the love, the joy that you are looking for, it's all inside of you. It's not without you. Everything that you see is merely a reflection of your beliefs. You change your beliefs, you change what you see. But in order to change your beliefs, you need to have a process to do that.” “When you go into the silence and stillness, this gives the opportunity for the divine to start to enter into you.” “What you create will magnetize to you, so if the more you give and you give with love, the more that will come back to you.”ABOUT THE GUEST
Neil had a successful career in engineering project management, a happy marriage and family, but he was in a very dark place. After Covid hit, his career dried up, and then the decades he’d spent studying spirituality kicked in. Spending so much time with himself, he realized that he had all the qualities inside himself that he was searching for to “give himself enlightenment”. His journey brought him to writing his book, A Higher Road. Now he wants to support other people as they ask themselves those defining questions to help become actualized, fulfilled human beings. Neil and his family live in Vancouver BC, Canada.
