This milestone episode marks 500 episodes and over 6 million downloads of The ONE Thing Podcast—and we couldn’t think of a better way to celebrate than bringing Geoff Woods back to the mic.
Geoff helped launch this podcast and spent years leading The ONE Thing company. In this episode, we look at what’s happened since he moved on. From becoming Chief Growth Officer at a multinational conglomerate to founding a company and writing a book on AI leadership, Geoff shares the role that asking big questions played in every chapter of that journey.
At the heart of our conversation is one question: Who do I want to become?
Geoff talks candidly about moving from certainty to curiosity, detaching identity from outcomes, and using both The ONE Thing framework and emerging tools like AI to craft a future you’re proud of. He opens up about struggling with self-worth after stepping away from The ONE Thing, and how redefining success through values like fatherhood, friendship, and internal validation helped him build something even more meaningful.
Whether you’re in a transition or just ready for more, this episode will challenge you to dream bigger—and act bolder.
Challenge of the Week:
Sit down with pen and paper. Fast forward 30 years and imagine sitting with your future self. Ask:
– Who have I become?
– What does my life look like?
– What would this version of me tell me to start, stop, or double down on today?
Give yourself time and space to journal. Don’t rush to the “right” answer. Just start searching. Trust the dominoes will fall.
