17 Jan 2022A Psychologists Guide To A Meaningful Life with Dr Julie Smith 01:31:30

"It's not about what happens to you it's about how you respond when hard stuff happens" - Dr Julie Smith

After practicing as a Clinical Psychologist for over a decade, Dr Julie Smith decided it was her mission to make high quality and engaging mental health education more accessible online. So she started using TikTok as a platform for therapy. A year and a bit later, Julie has built a following of over 3 million as an online educator. In the conversation we talk about her success as a creator as well as deep diving into some of my favourite chapters from her brand new book 'Why Did Nobody Tell Me This Before?' which takes a scientific approach to topics like motivation, self doubt, identity and what it means to live a meaningful life.

10 Aug 2023Why Manifestation Isn’t Just A Trend: How To Manifest - Roxie Nafousi00:59:34

Have you ever wondered how some people effortlessly attract success, abundance, and happiness into their lives? There’s one school of thought that suggests our beliefs and intentions have the power to shape our reality, so by manifesting positive thoughts we’re able to change our reality for the better. Some call this concept ‘manifestation’. Over the past few years, the word manifestation has got mixed reviews - sometimes seen as a transformative practice that has the power to change people’s lives, and sometimes seen as a bit new-age’y and mystical. Today I’m joined by Roxie Nafousi, who’s going to help demystify the conversation around manifestation and help us understand how we can use the practice to be more intentional about what we want in our future to make deliberate positive change in our lives. Roxie is a self-development coach, inspirational speaker, manifesting expert and 2 x Sunday Times Bestselling author. Her debut book MANIFEST: 7 Steps to Living Your Best Life has become a global success since it entered the market in January 2022, and is widely regarded as the must-have guide to manifestation. In the conversation we cover a lot of questions: what are the misconceptions around manifestation? Is there a “right way” and a “wrong way” to manifest? How much does manifesting differ from traditional goal setting? How much is manifestation about achieving something external vs developing internally? What’s the science? And what are some practical tips to start manifesting?

28 Mar 2022How To Find Meaning In A Digital World - Kharma Medic 01:37:37

A lot of the time we can find ourselves on this hamster wheel of trying to optimise every waking hour of our days, hyper-focused on time and paranoid about how the decisions we make today will influence our future selves. But ultimately the hamster wheel just keeps on spinning when we don’t take a moment to slow down, reflect and enjoy the moment.

Nasir Kharma is a medical student King’s College London, best known for his YouTube Channel, Kharma Medic, where he talks about studying, productivity and what it’s like being a med student. In the conversation we chat about how he started his channel and began to play the YouTube game, how his time in therapy has shifted his thinking around time management and how we’ve been thinking about what it means to live a meaningful life recently.

12 Mar 2024BONUS EPISODE: How To Get Started - Even When You Don’t Feel Like It (Chapter 6 Feel-Good Productivity)00:10:12

This is an exclusive excerpt from my New York Times bestselling book, Feel-Good Productivity! Chapter 6 of the book is about the law of inertia and how it applies to productivity, just like it does to physics. Three major factors prevent us from being productive, and they are uncertainty, fear and inertia. As Newton recognised, it takes more energy to start something than it does to keep going. In this chapter, we’ll explore some methods that will help us overcome inertia and get started! We'll be releasing more of these chapters week by week, so stay tuned and enjoy :)

17 Dec 2021Lessons I’m Taking Into 2022 - Season 1 Roundup 00:54:33

As the first season of the podcast draws to a close I look back at some of the most inspiring moments from the season including from conversations with Ben Francis, Krissy Cela, Chris Williamson, Unjaded Jade, Mrwhosetheboss and Dr Grace Lordan.

One of the biggest lessons I've learned from all the guests who've appeared this season is that we should embrace uncertainty and the idea of having a plan is a bit of a myth because really we're all working things out as we go along.

I also want to say a big thank you if you've tuned into the podcast each week and an even bigger thank you if you've left a review on apple podcasts and subscribed because that really does help other people hear about the podcast. I hope you enjoy this season round-up and I'll see you in season 2.

04 Apr 2022How To Embrace Vulnerability, Imposter Syndrome and Self-Doubt - Rupy Aujla, The Doctors Kitchen01:56:01

Hey friends, my guest this week is Rupy Aujla - an NHS medical doctor, entrepreneur and podcaster who’s life changed when he suffered a serious heart condition at the age of 23 while working busy shifts as a hospital doctor. But with the power of nutrition and lifestyle changes Rupy was actually able to reverse his condition. He then started his blog, The Doctor’s Kitchen, which soon evolved into a podcast, best selling books, regular television appears and most recently an app. In the conversation me and Rupy chat about a lot of things: his early days working as a doctor and burnout, how to optimise your lifestyle for longevity and his transition from a doctor to a creator and entrepreneur. Enjoy!

30 Mar 2023How To Build A Million Dollar Marketing Agency In 1 Year - Carrie Rose (Rise at Seven)01:48:09

Carrie Rose is the 29 year old co-founder and CEO of leading search-first creative agency Rise at Seven. Rise at Seven was founded in 2019 and in its first year brought in $1.8 million in revenue from working with some of the biggest names in the business, including ASOS and PlayStation. Fast forward to year 3 and this became $9 million and she’s also expanding her to the US as well. Carrie is an absolute powerhouse in the PR industry and in the episode she offers so much valuable business advice from how to pitch, to getting investments and also shares what she’s learned about marketing and advertising while growing her business. We also talk about teenage Carrie, and the challenges she faced in her early life, growing up in a disadvantaged area as well as dealing with grief from a young age and how that played a role in her journey to become the CEO she is today. Carrie is probably the most down to earth, positive vibes person we’ve had on the podcast so far and I really hope you enjoy the conversation as much as I did.

I also share tips on figuring out what to sell, and how productizing your knowledge can help you scale your efforts and work smarter, not harder.

28 Jul 2022How To Design Your Career For Happiness - Samantha Clarke 01:25:03

On average, most of us will spend one third of our lives at work. That’s a lot of time. But even though we spend so much of our lives at work, according to a 2022 happiness study over one third of Brits are unhappy in their job. Samantha Clarke is a work happiness consultant, author of Love It Or Leave It: How to Be Happy at Work and resident lecturer and facilitator at The School of Life, Simon Sinek's platform and The Guardian who gives masterclasses on career potential, navigating transitions and change, managing stress and anxiety, finding confidence and purpose at work. During the conversation me and Samantha break down the traditional prescription around what a career needs to look like and tackle all the big questions facing someone navigating a career: how do you figure out what career path to choose, how do you know when it’s time to quit, how do you reinvent yourself in ease phase of your career, how do you negotiate emotional barriers to change, and most importantly, how do you design a career that you love.

Season 7 Episode 7

Today I’m joined by Professor Steve Peters. He’s a world renowned psychologist who’s dedicated himself to understanding the way the human mind works. He’s worked with elite athletes like the Olympic cyclists Sir Chris Hoy and Victoria Pendleton, 5-time snooker world champion Ronnie O’Sullivan, as well as the England football team, to help them overcome mental barriers and optimise their performance. He’s perhaps best-known for his first book, 'The Chimp Paradox', which has sold millions of copies worldwide. The book gives us a mind management approach based on the idea that there are three forces which govern our brains. The emotional and primal 'chimp' is impulsive and often anxious, while our inner human is calm, logical, and rational. This system can help us better understand our behaviour and handle moments of stress and difficulty. In this episode we’re going to talk about how to use the Chimp Model to change your life, and how it can revolutionise the way you see yourself and others. You’ll get an insight into Professor Steve Peters’ world renowned coaching methods that have helped so many people lead happier, healthier and more successful lives. Enjoy!

06 Jul 2023Unlock Financial Freedom: Secrets From A $50 Million Portfolio - Codie Sanchez01:36:39

My guest this week has an incredibly inspiring story. Codie Sanchez started her career as a journalist covering human trafficking, and was confronted with extreme violence and the worst of humanity on a daily basis. Realising that she didn’t want to be someone who, in her own words, had to ‘fight for a living’ she decided to take a hard pivot into finance. Since entering the world of finance, Codie became partner at private equity firm EEC, and built First Trust’s $1 billion+ AUM Latin America business. She’s also the co-founder of ‘Unconventional Acquisitions’ and the founder of ‘Contrarian Thinking’ who have a mission to bring more people into financial freedom. In the conversation we talk about how, just like Codie’s career, human beings don’t have linear paths, we talk about the question of whether you need periods of struggle in order to achieve wealth, happiness and success. As well as advice for women in the workplace and leadership and we finish by covering a handful of truths that will make you more money than any business degree. I hope you enjoy this conversation as much as I did.

20 May 2022Bonus Episode: Originality, Writing and Career Fulfilment with Brandon Sanderson 00:52:11

Brandon Sanderson is my favourite author of all time. He writes incredible fantasy books, including Mistborn and The Stormlight Archive, and wrote the final 3 books of The Wheel of Time. Brandon's output is legendary - he writes books almost faster than we can read them, and he teaches creative writing at Brigham Young University. I recorded this episode with Brandon as a live stream during the 2020 lockdown, and because it was one of my favourites I wanted to share it with you again as a bonus episode.

In the conversation, we discuss how he kept going when his writing wasn’t being read, the question of originality and how we can make the stuff we need to do (work) more fun. Enjoy!

23 Jun 2022The Happiness Expert Making 1 Billion People Happier - Mo Gawdat01:31:44

 If you take control over your brain, you can do anything - but what’s the formula?

Some moments in life fundamentally change the way you think about the world - that’s what this conversation with Mo Gawdat did for me and what I’m certain it will do for you too. 

Mo is the former Chief Business Officer of Google X, Google's moonshot factory of innovation, a prolific researcher and writer on the topic of happiness and has an incredibly touching story.

In 2014, Mo lost his son Ali unexpectedly during a routine medical procedure. Days after, Mo set off on a mission to solve one of the biggest problems of our time, by pouring his research into the international best selling book, ‘Solve For Happy: Engineer Your Path To Joy’ - the audiobook brought me to tears.

#OneBillionHappy is his moonshot attempt to honour Ali by spreading the message that happiness can be learned and shared with one simple technique: the happiness equation.

For the next 90 minutes I ask you to forget everything you’ve learned about happiness from the modern world until now. In the episode we talk about a lot of things, things that may sit uncomfortably with some people, but also have the potential to be truly life changing.

00:00 Intro
2:16 Writing a book about happiness after losing your son
07:37 Battling the negativity bias instinct
10:42 Is happiness a choice?
19:59 The difference between happiness and fun
31:07 Understanding the happiness equation and unhappiness
39:23 Do lower expectations make us happier?
43:01 How should we manage ambitions?
57:00 You are born a millionaire
01:01:31 Is solve for happy the domain of the privileged?
01:09:00 Relationships: life is a question of context
01:15:22 Feminine vs masculine energy

21 Mar 2022How To Turn Your Passion Into A Business Without Sacrifice - James Hoffmann01:49:48

Many of us dream about turning our passion or hobby into the thing we do everyday, but very few of us actually do it. In this episode I talk to World Barista Champion and co-founder of Square Mile Coffee Roasters James Hoffmann about how he had the confidence to make a career out of coffee. Expect to hear how he built a bricks and mortar business from scratch, his regrets about hustling and burnout, and how he’s amassed a YouTube following of 1.23M subscribers.

13 Jul 2023Dr Alex George: How To Strengthen Your Mind & Build Mental Fitness01:37:19

From my experience working as a doctor, it’s very clear that we don’t treat mental health in the same way as physical health. And even though awareness about mental health has grown in the past decade or so, we still have a long way to go when it comes to understanding this topic and changing our attitudes towards mental health. Someone at the front of the campaign to change the conversation around mental health is Dr Alex George. Dr Alex is a TV doctor, best-selling author, and Youth Mental Health Ambassador to the government. Alex has become a well-known and respected figure amongst healthcare professionals in the UK, from his years as an A&E doctor, bringing the nation accessible and reassuring advice directly from the frontline throughout the pandemic. Alex is on a mission to improve mental health support for young people and has become prolific throughout the UK in his campaigning for Early Support Hubs and he’s recently published his latest book The Mind Manual: Mental Fitness Tools For Everyone - which we dive into during this episode. In the conversation, we talk about how to assess your mental health and understand the baseline that’s normal for you, we talk about how to build mental fitness and navigate feelings like anxiety and loneliness, and also discuss some of the ‘universal truths’ from Alex’s new book that everyone needs to remember. Enjoy :)

Disclaimer - this conversation includes discussion around suicide.

01 Dec 2022The Pathless Path: How To Recreate Your Life And Career In 2023 - Paul Millerd 01:33:24

“The pathless path is an alternative to the default path. It is an embrace of uncertainty and discomfort. It’s a call to adventure in a world that tells us to conform. For me, it’s also a gentle reminder to laugh when things feel out of control and trusting that an uncertain future is not a problem to be solved.” - from The Pathless Path by Paul Millerd.

In this episode I sit down for a conversation with Paul Millerd, a writer, creator, and consultant. A few years ago Paul had everything he thought he wanted from his corporate job at the most prestigious consulting firm in the world. But after realising he was on the wrong path in life, he decided to walk away and figure out how to live a life that actually mattered to him. In the conversation we talk about his book The Pathless Path, the ultimate companion for people struggling to figure out what to do with their lives, which traces his journey from certainty and tradition to uncertainty and fulfilment. So if you’re thinking about leaving your job, taking off on a new adventure or simply wanting to approach work and life with a little more curiosity, this episode is for you. Enjoy :)

27 Sep 2021E1 Delivering Pizzas to Managing a Billion Dollar Business | Ben Francis Gymshark CEO01:36:11

"We'll look back at this period in ten, twenty, thirty years time as the moment of opportunity"

In this first ever episode of Deep Dive, Ali sits down with Ben Francis, the founder and CEO of leading UK Billion-Dollar fitness brand, Gymshark. Ben founded Gymshark at only 19 years old while studying at Aston University. With only his £5 an hour pizza delivery shift money in his back pocket, Ben went from hand making and screen printing clothes in a shed with a group of friends to owning one of the fastest growing global brands in fitness.

Once the antidote to what Ben calls a "selfish-problem", Gymshark is now the host of a global community of athletes, artists, visionaries, and innovators with a mission to inspire individuals to achieve the extraordinary. But the question is, how did he do it? In the episode Ben and Ali have a candid and in-depth conversation about building a viral brand, self-development and why the age of entrepreneurialism is now. Ben also gives Ali advice on his new business structure, offering tips on hiring, distributing control and how to reinvent yourself as a business person.

Some topics of conversation:

  • Entrepreneurship
  • Creating a viral brand
  • Reinventing yourself
  • Scaling a business
  • Goal setting
  • And lots more!

08 Oct 2023The Full Story of Colin and Samir02:34:43

For a lot of people, the creator economy can seem like a bit of a mystery. You might be wondering how to start creating online, or how to scale a side hobby into a monetisable business. And with trends and platforms and algorithms changing all the time, it can be really hard to keep up, let alone know what your next steps could be to make the most of your potential. Today I’m joined by Colin and Samir, the podcasting duo and Youtube experts who have spent over ten years helping creators navigate the creator economy. They got their start building a small online network for college lacrosse, before their business was built and they then pivoted into helping creators make the most of the online space. Their main channel has over 1 million subscribers, and they have interviewed some of the world’s biggest YouTubers like MKBHD and MrBeast. They also have a side channel called Creator Support, where they answer questions from audience members to help them scale their creator businesses. In this episode we’re going to talk about everything they've learned in 12 years on YouTube, how to build a long-lasting creative business, and the future of the creator economy. Enjoy!

19 Mar 2024BONUS EPISODE: Are You Burned Out? Listen To This. (Chapter 7 Feel-Good Productivity)00:10:22

This is an exclusive excerpt from my New York Times bestselling book, Feel-Good Productivity! Chapter 7 of the book explores the various kinds of burnout that we may suffer and offers a glimpse of the solution.


I analysed how LeBron James has dominated the NBA and sustained his position during a multi-decade career, and how Steve Jobs managed to be innovative by saying “no to innovations”. 


I realised that being sustainably productive means doing less today so that we can do more of what matters tomorrow.


We'll be releasing more of these chapters week by week, so stay tuned and enjoy :)

16 Mar 2023Heal Your Brain: How Your Gut Secretly Controls Your Brain Health - Dietitian Sophie Medlin02:24:16

Believe it or not, if you’ve been feeling like you just can’t bring yourself to focus, are constantly battling procrastination, or even struggling with low mood, it’s probably because you’re not looking after your gut. In this episode I sit down for a conversation with Sophie Medlin, one of the UK's leading experts on gut health. Sophie is a dietitian, chair of the British Dietetic Association and a lecturer at King's College London. In the conversation we discuss how the connection between gut health and mental health has become an emerging area of research, how to feed your body with the right foods to optimise your cognitive performance and we also discuss weird and wonderful nutrition myths that have been circulating on social media over the past few years. Enjoy!

09 Feb 2023The Ultimate Method To Take Control Of Your Life in 2023 - Ryder Carroll01:55:08

A lot of the time it can feel like we’re living our lives on autopilot, without considering how much or how little our day to day activities actually add value to our lives. But what would happen if you took the time to study your life and figure out what kind of life you want using the magic of intentionality? In this episode I speak to Ryder Carroll, the creator of the bullet journal, about his self-discovery productivity method that helps you organise your thinking around the things that matter to you and ultimately reach your goals. Ryder invented the bullet journal method after being diagnosed with learning disabilities early in life and was forced to figure out alternate ways to be focused and productive. Bullet journalling has now exploded into a global community, used by thousands of people (including me) to effectively track the past, order the present and design the future of their lives. Enjoy!

If navigating your 20s feels like a race against time, you’re not alone. You might be anxious about whether you’re on the right path (like whether you should stick to a conventional career or go travelling), you might be struggling to find your ‘true self’ (like what your purpose and passions are), or your might be struggling to balance your relationships with your 9-5 job. Let’s face it. The period of our 20s isn’t the easiest to navigate. Today I’m joined by Jemma Sbeghen. Jemma is the podcast host of The Psychology Of Your 20s, the podcast that talks through some of the big life challenges and changes of your 20s and what they mean for our psychology. Jemma has a degree in psychology and started her podcast during the covid lockdown where she applied psychological concepts she’d learned to the common problems people face in their 20s, including everything from imposter syndrome, to break ups and existential crisis’. In its first year, the podcast catapulted to Spotify’s top 10 podcast charts in the US, UK, and Australia. In the episode we talk about this feeling of uncertainty, often known as the quarter-life crisis, how to navigate these feelings filtering into different aspects of our life, as well as talking about the habits we can develop in our 20s to help us feel more in tune and at peace with our relationships, careers and identity.

(01:34) What is a quarter life crisis?

02 Apr 2024BONUS EPISODE: The Ultimate Productivity Booster (Chapter 9 Feel-Good Productivity)00:11:24

This is an exclusive excerpt from my New York Times bestselling book, Feel-Good Productivity! This final excerpt from chapter 9 of the book is about how doing what matters to you is the ultimate energiser and productivity booster and how you can find what matters to you.

I explore the science of motivation, and how in addition to intrinsic motivation, there are 3 forms of extrinsic motivation that move us. 

It’s widely known that when we’re intrinsically motivated to do something we’re more effective and energised in doing it, and extrinsic rewards can make us less motivated to do something for its own sake. Well, that has been proven to not be exactly the case.

21 Jul 20235 Skills To Succeed in ANY Career - Helen Tupper (Squiggly Careers)01:36:42

For a lot of us, navigating our future careers can feel like an uncertain and anxiety-inducing time. You might find yourself asking questions like: how do I know that I’m on the right path? Is my job truly fulfilling me? Am I using all my strengths and developing in my role? Do I really have to do this for the next 50 years of my working like? But among all this uncertainty you might be feeling, one thing is for certain - careers, as we’ve traditionally known them, are changing for the better. Gone are the days when a single career path and job ladder could define us for a lifetime. Instead, the world is moving  towards a more exciting, fluid and non-linear model, where the focus is on talents over job titles and new possibilities over career plans — this is known as the squiggly career. And in this episode I’m here with Helen Tupper co-author of the No.1 Sunday Times Business Bestseller ‘The Squiggly Career: Ditch the Ladder, Discover Opportunity, Design Your Career’ to talk about how we can navigate this change and develop the skills to successfully traverse the ‘squiggly career’ and maximise our potential for growth and opportunity. Helen has held leadership roles at Microsoft, Virgin and BP and is now CEO of Amazing If, an award-winning career development company with a mission to make work better for everyone. Her love of learning has led her to study at Henley, Cranfield and Cass Business School. Helen is a trustee for the Working Families charity and a Fellow of The RSA and lives. Along with co-authoring her two books ‘The Squiggly Career’ and most recently ‘You Coach You’ with Sarah Ellis, they also host the No.1 Careers podcast. Enjoy the episode!

07 Sep 2023Steven Bartlett: 9 Secret Habits of a Multi-Million Dollar Entrepreneur - Diary of a CEO01:46:20

There's a lot of things human beings crave in life - happiness, knowledge, status, wealth, abundance - and most of us embark on seeking out this relentless pursuit of success without really knowing how to juggle all of our aspirations and goals in life. But what if I told you that there's a way to achieve all of these things and have them exist in harmony, no matter who you are, or where you start out in life? Today I'm joined by the genius mind who has done just that and is inspiring so many others to unlock their potential too. Steven Bartlett is one of the most brilliant entrepreneurs of our time, a best-selling author, investor and truly engaging speaker. As the founder of Social Chain and a number of other wildly successful companies he's reshaped digital marketing. He was the youngest ever Dragon on Dragons’ Den, and he's the host of the No.1 podcast Diary of a CEO. In the conversation we talk about his incredible backstory of how he went from a university drop out to a multimillion dollar entrepreneur and the fundamental principles he's learned along the way that have contributed to his success and are detailed in his new life-changing book 'Diary of a CEO - The 33 Laws of Business and Life'. I hope you enjoy the conversation as much as I did :)

11 Aug 2022Moral Philosopher Will MacAskill on What We Owe The Future02:52:44

How can we do the most good with our careers, money and lives? And what are the things that we can do right now, to positively impact future generations to come? This is the mission of the Effective Altruism (EA) movement co-founded by Will McAskill, Associate Professor in Philosophy at the University of Oxford and co-founder of nonprofits Giving What We Can, the Centre for Effective Altruism, and Y Combinator-backed 80,000 Hour. In the conversation, me and Will talk about the fundamentals of EA, his brand new book 'What We Owe The Future', the idea of 'longtermism', the most pressing existential threats humanity is facing and what we can do about them, why giving away your income will make you happier, why your career choice is the biggest choice you’ll make in your life and much more.

07 Feb 2022How To Think Like A Life Coach - Hasan Kubba01:10:21

All of us have different areas of our lives that we'd like to improve. But investing in a life coach isn't always an option. Hasan Kubba is my business coach and the author of the business book of the year 2021 ‘The Unfair Advantage: How You Already Have What It Takes To Succeed’. In the conversation we talk about some of the concepts in his book as well as having a mini coaching session so you can apply coaching frameworks to your own life without needing to hire a coach yourself. We talk about realising your limiting beliefs, productivity, confidence and finish by chatting through some of my current predicaments about writing my book.

12 Oct 2023How To Win: Rugby Legend Dan Carter's Ultimate Guide to Success01:35:11

Do you panic under pressure? Maybe it’s a job interview, or an important exam, or a presentation at work. Expectation and nerves can get to us, and we don’t know how to cope. But - there are ways that we can build our resilience and work towards the goals that really matter to us. Today on Deep Dive I’m joined by Dan Carter - one of the greatest rugby players of all time. He’s super famous in his home country of New Zealand, where he played for the All Blacks for over fifteen years and lead them to historic victories. He is the highest ever points scorer in test match rugby history and many people think he is the best ever fly half the game has ever known, having been named International Player of the Year three times. But he’s also encountered significant setbacks in his career, and since his retirement from the professional game, he’s gone on to become a leader, advisor and writer, helping people achieve their potential. His new book, The Art of Winning, is all about how to become the best in your game - whatever that may be. In this conversation we’re going to be talking about how to find your purpose, overcome setbacks and perform well under pressure. I hope this episode gives you some tools you can use to reach your potential. Enjoy!

08 Nov 2021How To Bootstrap £500 into £350 Million - Oliver Cookson Founder of Myprotein 01:37:22

"With patience water can erode rocks, so with patience and perseverance you can do anything" - Oliver Cookson

In this weeks episode Ali sits with down award-winning British entrepreneur, Oliver Cookson. Oliver left school aged 16 with just one GCSE and went on to become one of the UK's leading self-made millionaires after founding sports nutrition business Myprotein. Earlier this year Oliver released his book 'Bootstrap Your Life' where he writes about his experiences turning a £500 overdraft into £350 million.

In the conversation Oliver and Ali discuss the story of MyProtein from the early days right up until the sale, covering the challenges that come with being an entrepreneur, mindset and how we sometimes have to roll with the punches.

In these Deep Dive Snippets, I'll be sharing some of my favourite moments from past episodes of the podcast.

In this snippet, dating and relationships expert Logan Ury talks to me about a few things we can do to increase the longevity and happiness of our relationships, and ultimately be better life partners.

08 Jun 2023Bonus Episode - The Science of Attraction: Why You’ve Not Met Someone - Matthew Hussey 00:53:41

Navigating the world of modern dating and romance is hard. Back in our parents’ and grandparents’ days, it was common for people to meet through family or mutual friends. Nowadays, things are a little more complicated. We’re much less likely to meet our potential partners organically. It’s pretty rare for people to meet through sports clubs, events, or just by hanging out with people who live in your local area. The rise of dating apps and websites means that our first encounter with our potential partners is likely to be through a screen - which comes with a lot of complexities. On top of that, the rise of social media encourages us compare our relationship with the seemingly perfect couples on Instagram - which often creates unrealistic expectations. So, how do we navigate this new landscape and find those meaningful connections that we crave and that add value to our lives? In this episode of deep dive, I spoke to renowned dating coach Matthew Hussey. Matthew Hussey has helped millions of people find love and build strong relationships for over a decade. His YouTube channel has nearly 3 million subscribers and his book, ‘Get the Guy’, is a New York Times bestseller. In the episode you'll learn about:

00:00 Navigating the world of dating
03:19 The 4 stages of attraction
17:53 Mistakes we make when dating
28:23 Practical dating advice 
44:26 The secret to long-lasting desire

07 Dec 20235 Powerful Habits To Build Unshakeable Confidence - Aliénor Hunter (Ultraspeaking)01:52:09

We’ve all been to parties where we meet people at the centre of the room, oozing charisma and confidence, and we think they must be born with it. But I’m beginning to discover that social confidence can be practice and learned - it’s not just something you have or you don’t. Today’s guest has a personal story that illustrates this really well. Aliénor Hunter is a professional public speaking coach with Ultraspeaking, a company that helps people speak confidently, spontaneously and conversationally in 30 days. But - she used to be too nervous to even phone the hairdressers or speak to cashiers at the grocery store. In this episode, we’re going to talk through Aliénor's journey, and give you some clear, effective, and actionable steps to improve your confidence and to feel less anxious in social situations, when you’re giving a work presentation or meeting someone for the first time. If we have the tools to manage our social anxiety we’ll also be better at putting ourselves out there and looking for opportunities that might change the course of our lives. We’re going to talk about public speaking, and even play a few of Ultraspeaking’s confidence building games, so you can see that there’s a path towards getting the most out of life through levelling up your mindset.

24 Jan 2022How Productivity Ruins Your Life with Productivity Expert Oliver Burkeman02:05:01

The average human lifespan is around 4,000 weeks - this sounds scary but it's also incredibly empowering. Journalist and Author Oliver Burkeman says that facing our finitude and how little control we have over our lives is key to living a truly fulfilling and meaningfully productive life. For many years Oliver wrote a popular weekly column on psychology, happiness and productivity for The Guardian called 'This Column Will Change Your Life' and has recently released his latest book 'Four Thousand Weeks: Time And How To Use It' which looks at how our obsessiveness with being busy and trying to master our time can actually make us more unhappy, avoid important decisions about our future and make us less in control of our lives. In the conversation we discuss what most productivity gurus get wrong about productivity, how you will never get everything done and why you should start embracing the fact of human finitude.

But somehow you find ourself falling into the rabbit hole of Youtube videos or with a sudden urge to clean your house. Yep, we’ve all been caught by that monster of procrastination.
Although procrastination is such a common problem, we still have lots of misperceptions about it. We tend to think that procrastination is a time-management issue. But - as we’ll learn in today’s episode - procrastination is actually a little more complex.
By understanding the psychology nature of what procrastination is and why we procrastinate, we might be in a better place to reduce or even overcome procrastination.
My guest today is Dr. Fuschia Sirois, professor of psychology at Durham University. Before she came to the UK, Fuschia was a Canada Research Chair and the Co-ordinator of the multidisciplinary Psychological Health and Well-being Research cluster at Bishop’s University (2010-2015).
Dr Fuschia's interest stretch from self-regulation — exploring how we manage our thoughts, emotions, and behaviors — to their impact on our health and wellbeing.
Above all, Dr Fuschia is probably most well-known for her work on procrastination. Her recent book explores what procrastination is, why we procrastinate, and what we can do about it.
What I really admire about about Fuschia is that she believes in the power of psychological science as a tool to improve lives, and she has an uncanny ability to communicate these complex ideas in a way that is both engaging and easily comprehensible. Her work's been features in many news outlets including The Washington Post, The New York Times, and the BBC.
I hope you enjoy the conversation!

31 Aug 2023Entrepreneurship Masterclass: How to Make $10k - $1M per Month - Daniel Priestley 02:28:14

Imagine having so many clients, you had to turn them away. This is the foundation of most successful businesses - to have people lining up wanting to buy your product and do business with you. Our guest today, Daniel Priestley, knows how to turn that into a reality. The term Daniel uses to describe this situation is "oversubscribed". Daniel is the founder of Dent Global, a company that operates across four continents, assisting businesses to stand out, scale up and make a positive impact. Daniel's book "Oversubscribed" is one of my most highlighted books and is the playbook I follow when thinking about how to create a business that outstrips your competition. Daniel's also written other insightful books, like 'Entrepreneur Revolution,' 'Key Person of Influence,' and '24 Assets,' each one of them offering insights on how to thrive in the modern business landscape. In this episode we talk about all things entrepreneurship and how to make $10k - $1M per month. I hope you enjoy the episode as much as I did :)

In these Deep Dive Snippets, I'll be sharing some of my favourite moments from past episodes of the podcast.

51% of UK business owners have experienced burnout since the start of the COVID19 pandemic, but do you really need to hustle to the point of burnout out when starting a business to be successful? In this snippet, I talk to James Hoffman about the dangers of hustling and what he would've done differently in the early days of building his business Stone Mile Coffee Roasters.
