Episodes

  • On STANDOUTS 025 we are joined by super successful investor, multiple business owner, 9 x best selling author, double world record holder, mentor and property magnate Rob Moore.

    Rob is one of the co-founders of Progressive Property which is the UK’s largest property training company and alongside his business partners he co-owns 700 houses around the UK. As well as his various successes in the world of property, Rob is also one of the UK’s most in-demand mentors and coaches of investing and is a widely respected authority on creating financial freedom.

    In this episode of the podcast we chat to Rob about his brand new (best seller No.9!) book ‘Money’ and we take a deep dive into what money actually is and why we have the relationship we do with it. Having generated sales in excess of £50,000,000 he is well versed in the subject!

    This latest book from Rob is a fantastic piece of work that drills into the history and heritage of money, the way it has been used and he also offers some of his unique insights about how to start taking steps towards becoming an expert in this often feared subject!

    In the show Rob shares:

    *Why he still fears fully putting himself out there (no Ferrari and watch pics here!)

    *How money simply flows from those who value it most to those who value it least

    * The fact that creating Money requires action - you can’t get more of it without increasing your value. Systemising and leverage (the subject of his previous book) have a part to play but it’s only one part

    * How you can never save your way to wealth - you need to save AND invest to get rich

    * How money does make you happier

    * Creator vs Consumer Mindset

    * Money is simply a universal mechanism of exchange of value.

    * How Rob felt responsible for his Dad’s breakdown and how it spurred him to do something about his situation of being a broke artist

    * How Rob’s accidental chance encounter with some Tony Robbins audio changed his outlook

    and much, much more.

    This is an in-depth chat about an often taboo subject from someone who has made a serious change to their life (and hundreds of thousands of others) by studying and understanding exactly what money is and how it works.

  • On STANDOUTS 024 we are joined by a successful business owner, an author, a psychologist and a stand-up comedian… and yes, all these personas belong to one fabulous and very funny lady Stephanie Davies.

    Stephanie is the owner of Laughology which is one of the UK’s most well-respected learning, development, training and consultation companies in the country where their mission is to help create better businesses by creating a psychology humour, laughter and happiness.

    Stephanie shares her journey of entering in to comedy - she reveals how her career as a professional stand-up comic made her realise that when you make people laugh you will always have their attention AND you can then educate people without them even knowing it if you entertain them at the same time.

    In the show we discuss the studies that reveal the 5 Drivers of Happiness // The biggest causes of workplace unhappiness // The importance of making sure people are playing to their strengths and how it is essential to chase happiness and not money… especially in the corporate world.

    We also hear about the upcoming National Happiness Awards - the annual event which promotes happiness in work places and schools across the UK. Do you think you work for the happiest company?

  • On STANDOUTS 023 we have the honour and the pleasure of spending 90 minutes in the company of the one and only Brad Burton. Brad is the Best-selling Author of 4 books, his business 4Networking has 100,000 members across the UK and company organises 5,000 meetings all over the country every year enabling small businesses and entrepreneurs to connect with likeminded individuals in their area. 4N has disrupted the ‘networking’ industry with it’s fresh approach to helping people connect and disrupting the markets he is involved in is something of a pattern in Brad’s world!

    Having left Salford 20 years ago under the cover of darkness, following two bullets coming through his living room window, Brad decided it was time for a serious change. Having been on the dole for four years and addicted to drugs twice, he decided enough was enough. Walking out of a then stable job he undertook to go his own way and do his own thing…. this at a time when he had never run a business, had no idea what business he was going to start, was in £25k of debt… oh yer, and he’d just had a baby too - so there was an extra month to feed!

    In the show Brad highlights:

    * You have to turn up the heat on your goals if you’re serious about them

    * Get yourself to a place that once you make a decision you just go for it

    * Why your brain is the most valuable business tool you will ever have

    * The fact that most people are not willing to stay uncomfortable for long enough

    * Creating more success is just about making better decisions faster

    * Understanding the true value of TODAY

    * Know that conditions will never be perfect - if you’re waiting for that you’ll wait a life time

    * If you have a Plan B you don’t believe in Plan A enough

    * The first person you need to convince of anything is yourself

    * Be you - you’re a 10 out of 10 on your scale

    * The importance of decompressing

    * When your back against the wall you get hungry

    * Taking control of your time - by focusing on output

    * Just get content and happy TODAY - the money will follow.. Money is the third thing to focus on not the first

    Throughout the show it is very obvious why Brad is the such a successful business owner and why is his the UK’s No.1 Motivational Business speaker - he delivers actionable tips in his trademark, no BS way ensuring that the simple message he is preaching is received loud and clear! As you will hear he does the opposite to what a lot of business leaders do, but maybe that is why he gets results that the majority of business leaders never achieve!

  • On STANDOUTS 021 we have the genuine pleasure of bringing Magician, Mind Reader, Motivational Speaker and the 2016 Britain’s Got Talent champion Richard Jones to the show. Having performed for Her Majesty The Queen, wowing Prince Charles and even getting a compliment from Simon Cowell it is clear that Richard is a guy who is well practised in his art in order to succeed.

    But the level of his preparation for success might surprise you!

    A seriously goal focused and systemised approach to reaching every target has got him to where he is right now and this is something that he works on every day - meticulously planning pretty much every single minute of his day in order to create optimum performance in whatever he happens to be doing.

    In the show he shares how this focus saw him turning his dorm in the army barracks into a giant vision board - much the amusement of his peers - but Richard highlights that he feels it is essential to go against the crowd when everyone thinks you’re a bit strange… and how he developed a level of pride being someone who stood out for trying to achieve great things.

    We also get a deep insight into:

    His focus on the precision planning for success

    How he got the attention of media and TV shows once he set his sights on that goal

    The steps needed to create a great show

    His guilty pleasure pre-show track that he listened to before every episode of Britain’s Got Talent

    How he has focused his magic on how it makes people feel rather than just looking cool

    How Richard’s juggles being a professional magician, musician and military man

    How his prime time TV show helped him to give back to the military

    and much, much more.

    This really is a great behind the scenes look at what makes success possible for someone who is a peak performer in so many different and varied fields.

    If you would like to see Richard on his UK TOUR grab tickets now, while there are still some available, as they are selling out fast and Richard loves hearing from fans so if you’d like to connect with him direct or have a burning question feel free to email him and his team via [email protected]

  • On STANDOUTS 018 host James Burtt and the UK’s leading coach Llewellyn Davies jump in this final episode of Monday Motivation and delve into one of the core principles of success; Consistency. In the previous 7 weeks of episodes Llewy has shared a wealth of knowledge on how to take your achievement to the next level and the overall core element that accelerates it is consistency - but understand that, while this may sounds simple, being consistent is a chore, it’s hard and it’s a hassle. You might not want to be consistent all the time, in fact, a lot of the time you won’t want to at all! But decide what you want, pick 3 small actions that get you closer to the attainment of that goal and just keep doing it!

  • On STANDOUTS 017 we’re joined by the fabulous Natalie Musaphia aka Na:Mu who is single-handedly creating a happiness revolution. In this episode we delve into how Natalie has built an audience of over 16,000 who join her every morning for her Facebook Live shows where she aims to do nothing more than make people happy and send them off for the day to spread that little bit of extra joy! That’s right, there is no massive goal or end result in mind for the Na:Mu page and the mini revolution, as Natalie says on many occasions ’things will work out as they should’. She also discusses how attending a Tough Mudder assault course challenge a few years ago led Natalie to realise that she hadn’t done anything else for herself in years and how that was the catalyst to purposely turning her wolrd upside down. She openly discusses the turmoil and emotional abuse that her divorce caused and how things got so bad she considered leaving her old life behind and escaping to Oz. She mentions how she is able to turn any situation positive - even her arrest during the time of her divorce.

    Natalie is without a doubt a unique lady with a spark and energy that is addictive and contagious and during the show she opens up with honesty, integrity and compassion - a real and raw episode this one and maybe one that will make you take life that little bit less seriously enabling you to re-focus on increasing your happiness!

  • On STANDOUTS 013 we have the pleasure of chatting to a very smart man behind a bit of a musical revolution, Craig Evans, who is the head honcho and founder of Flying Vinyl; a super- disruptive (in a good way) musical startup that curates limited edition records and ships them to music-mega-fan around the globe. And the best part of this is, that the subscribers of Flying Vinyl never know what tracks their going to get, they never have any idea about the bands that will feature and they can’t request certain items - it’s all curated by the tastemaker team at Flying Vinyl and the brand is, well, to coin a phrase, flying because of it! Thousands of fans across the planet get these beautifully designed, unique, loving-crafted boxes each month and emerging acts get the chance to reach the turntables of a huge new audience… talk about a win/win!

    In the show we talk about the rise of vinyl, how commercial requirements of the old music industry is killing creativity of bands and acts, what digital music is doing to the establishment, how Flying Vinyl has not just got customers but raving fans and how this tribe of fans is enabling them to curate and create in an entirely new way.

    Craig also discusses how important passion for your product is, how they had to have faith in the brand despite 17 (yes, 17!) industry experts telling him this would be a failure and how it is easier than ever to get your idea to market.

  • On STANDOUTS 011 we’re joined by best selling author and creator of the much-loved #LiveDaily brand Stephen Doran. During the show Stephen - aka Stevie D - shares why he firmly believes that ego is NOT the enemy, why 90% of all comments and feedback is just people reinforcing their own life decisions and why he only takes advice from people that he wants to be like. As well as this, Steve also opens up about his journey from shy kid to super confidence, explains the importance of avoiding incongruence and why he believes that most people don’t actually listen to the advice that they ask for. Also, have you ended up where you ended up accidentally…? Steve suggests that it might be time to ask yourself the big, hard questions.

On the show - as you’d expect from a marketing automation guru - we discuss a little bit about the marketing processes and tools that Rob uses to create insane ROI’s on promotional activity, but the bigger bulk of the conversation is about the many, many lessons that Rob has learned on his journey from RAF Fighter Pilot to successful business entrepreneur. Rob discusses the importance of really knowing who we are, how we all suffer overwhelm, protecting time for personal growth, writing down your vision on paper, the effect that bio-hacking social media has on us and how development in whatever we want to achieve in life will sometimes feel like pushing a boulder up a hill.
