I love a new fresh year and I just can’t wait to make 2023 my best year ever!One of my motto’s is ‘not to live the same year twice’. I want new experiences, new dreams & goals. I want to keep growing and evolving - which means I need to think about who I want to become. My future self. Research shows that the more connected you are to your own future self – who you want to become - the wiser decisions you make here & now and the more likely you are to achieve your dreams and goals.My guest on this week’s podcast episode is the amazing Dr Benjamin Hardy – author of the book Be Your Future Self Now: The Science of Intentional Transformation. According to Benjamin – the person you imagine yourself to be in the future when you’ve achieved your dreams and goals can be your greatest guide.The future-self concept is simple & valuable - yet rarely practised.Listen in to learn:How to connect with and create your desired future selfThe science of your future self conceptHow to expand your view of your future self beyond what you can currently imagine…and so much more.I can’t wait to hear what you think of this episode – and please share what you took from it in our Dream Life Podcast Facebook group here.And please share it with anyone who you feel may benefit from it.

Hello & welcome back!Do you ever wonder why some people get so much done? You know, the ones that say they'll do something …and then you see them do it?Most of these people are good at planning - and then following their plan.It’s not rocket science, and it has to be done - BUT most people haven't learnt how to plan effectively - which becomes THE key barrier stopping them achieving their dreams & goals.I've always been passionate about productivity, and I’ve studied the secrets of planning, productivity and time management for many years. And in that time, I’ve developed and refined my own system for annual planning that is simple and works brilliantly well.Planning in advance to make sure the year ahead is brilliant has become one of the most important and valuable activities I spend time on. And it works.As you know, I love sharing what I've learnt, so enjoy this week’s podcast.I can’t wait to hear what you think of this episode – and please share what you took from it in our Dream Life Podcast Facebook group here.And please share it with anyone who you feel may benefit from it.

Hello & welcome back!Why do some people achieve their Dreams, and some don’t?Well, there is obviously not just one thing, but there is one thing that is VITAL for making your Dreams come true - and that is a GROWTH MINDSET.It all starts with being curious, wanting to grow and believing you can do it. You don't need to know how ...yet.I meet way too many people that have amazing Dreams but with a fixed mindset which means they are unlikely to make their Dreams come true.But the good thing is that you can completely change your mindset and that is what I speak about in today’s podcast episode.Listen in to learn:How and why mindset – and believing that you can achieve what you set out to achieve - is so very importantHow adding the word 'yet' is so very powerful (ie: I don't know how to do it, YET!)How to get support with crafting and maintaining your own growth mindsetHow to push past limiting beliefs of what you can and can’t do…and so much more.I can’t wait to hear what you think of this episode – and please share what you took from it in our Dream Life Podcast Facebook group here.And please share it with anyone who you feel may benefit from it.

Hello and welcome back to a very special episode 150!I can hardly believe it, and I am so very grateful that I get to do what I love and that it inspires others around the world at the same time. Talk about living my dream life?!If you’re a frequent listener, you’ll know that this podcast was born when I asked myself “What would I do if I knew I couldn’t fail?”. And starting a podcast came up for me. But with that came self-doubt and many un-useful thoughts. But I decided to just start anyway.I’m so glad I did.The first fifty episodes were difficult, but just like anything, you don’t need to be great to start, but you need to start to be great. And now 150 episodes in, with over 2 million listeners in over 150 countries I am so grateful - and this is one of my favourites things to do.The feedback I get from you all is overwhelming and I’m so grateful to be helping others in my small way – and thankful that you tune in and share.So, this episode is my gift to you, as I share some simple ideas about the magical power of gratitude.Listen in to this episode to learn:How to ‘just start’The fears I had before starting this podcast – which you might relate to as you chase your own dreamsHow to go on ‘a gratitude run’ – and why you should(!)What research says about gratitudeHow to practice gratitude daily (and simply)How to create a gratitude dinner…and so much more.And when it comes to gratitude, one key thing I've learned over the years is that it’s not what you do occasionally, but what you do every single day that makes a difference. So, if you haven’t already, get yourself a Dream Life Gratitude Journal and/or a Daily Wins Journal and start your own daily gratitude practice.I can’t wait to hear what you think of this episode – and please share what you’re grateful for in our Dream Life Podcast Facebook group here.And please share it with anyone who you feel may benefit from it.

Hello and welcome back!One Dream I feel we must all have on our long list of Dreams is to be as healthy and well as we can be.In practice what this looks like will be different for everyone, but what I know for sure is that the healthier you are - and the better your sense of wellness - the more energy you have to live your best life and to make more of your Dreams come true.And we all know, you can't pour from an empty cup. You need to take care of your physical and mental health & wellness - not only for yourself but for those who depend on you.As the classic airline instruction goes, 'you need to put on your own oxygen mask before helping others'.Today’s podcast episode guest Hayden Fricke gives us a fascinating perspective on this - having recently released a book exploring how leaders need to look after themselves first to take care of their team members well.Hayden is a leading sport & organisational psychologist, author and wellness thought leader and you'll love taking a front row seat as we discuss and share a host of practical and helpful insights to help you optimise your wellness. Listen in to this episode to learn:How to build daily self-care & wellness habits slowly and successfullyThe most important thing for your mental wellbeing – which is to understand the connection between your thoughts and your emotions (and to manage our unhelpful thoughts).Practical insights on managing your relationship with alcohol.How to turn up the volume of our positive thoughts and turn down the volume of less helpful thoughts.The power of ‘yet’.How making daily habits ‘laughably small’ can lead to great things.How important it is to develop a growth rather than a fixed mindset.How to overcome bad habits that may have been learnt from childhood.…and so much more. …and you can find Hayden’s book Leaders, Do You Have Your Sh*t Together? here.  And when it comes to health & wellness, one key thing I've learned over the years is that it’s not what you do occasionally, but what you do every single day that makes a difference. So I've created a Wellbeing Notepad that will help with your daily productivity while helping you track daily & weekly wellbeing habits - and a range of Wellbeing Diaries to help you focus daily on your wellbeing in 2023. And last but not least, next Monday we will have our first Dream Life Coaching Program Session where you can ask me any questions about your own Dream Life & the challenges you may be facing. Click here to learn more…I can’t wait to hear what you think of this episode – so please let me know either in the comments below or in our Dream Life Podcast Facebook group here.And please share it with anyone who you feel may benefit from it.

Hello & welcome back!This week I made a dream come true - and in todays podcast episode I talk through how.In particular I talk about the power of asking yourself 'WHAT IF?' They're two simple words, but when put together with a question mark, they become so powerful for you - and life changing. Like they have been for me. "WHAT IF?"WHAT IF you decided to change career? WHAT IF you decided to start a side hustle? WHAT IF you started exercising every day to feel better? WHAT IF you decided to be around like-minded people more often, who are chasing their dreams? WHAT IF you prioritised your health?WHAT IF you started saying no to things just to please other people? WHAT IF you decided you deserve more? It's the start of more questions that invite possibility, curiosity & growth into your life. Questions that can open you up to a whole new way of being.I can’t wait to hear what you think of this episode – so please let me know either in the comments below or in our Dream Life Podcast Facebook group here.And please share it with anyone who you feel may benefit from it.

Hi There, Welcome back to another wonderful episode. I love real-life stories of transformation. Not that I don’t like a good Hollywood movie – but give me a real-life story any day. Particularly if it starts with dreaming, ends with dreams being achieved and contains relatable real-life struggles in between.And that’s what I’ve got for you in this episode.Join me in conversation with the wonderful Jane Treloar, and take a front row seat as she shares her heart-warming and inspiring story of personal transformation. From working in a job she describes as “draining and toxic” to now living a life she just loves. You’ll hear how losing a dear friend at a young age was a catalyst for her – but how it took some time to make a decision that “Enough was enough. It was time to chase her dreams.”Jane’s is a wonderful real-life story of personal transformation that we can all relate to - and highlights the value of working with a coach and being part of a supportive community.It’s so very normal for sports people to have coaches – and I’ve always been a fan of having a coach in things I want to get better at - but have you ever wondered what it would be like to have a coach to support you creating your Dream Life?This episode contains valuable insights into how with a little support, anyone can discover, chase, and achieve their dreams. Getting clear on their Values, Passions & Purpose and transforming in the process towards living their Dream Life, whatever that means to them.I can’t wait to hear what you think of this episode – so please let me know either in the comments below or in our Dream Life Podcast Facebook group here.And please share it with anyone who you feel may benefit from it.

Welcome back to another episode!Today I’m really excited, because the day of recording this episode I’m making a dream come true! And in this episode, I want to share two stories to illustrate my experience of how & why some people create amazing outcomes for themselves and loved ones in life - making dreams come true - and others don’t.How and why some people say they’ll do something. And then do it. And how others say they’ll do something, but don’t get it done.You know them. The people who talk about changing careers, starting a new business, doing a side-hustle, running a half marathon (when they haven’t run 5km since high school!) or the person who has a health challenge and needs to come up with a solution after numerous doctors visit with no result for a solution. Then they do it. So what is the difference between the do-ers - and those who don’t follow through? And what can we learn to help us be a do-er?That’s what you’ll learn in this episode. I can’t wait to hear what you think of this episode – so please let me know either in the comments below or in our Dream Life Podcast Facebook group here.And please share it with anyone who you feel may benefit from it.

Hi there & welcome back!Four years ago, I wrote my first book, Your Dream Life Starts Here. It was my answer to the thousands of people who were regularly asking me “I’m inspired by your story, but where do I start if I want to live my best life too?”…and my reason for writing it was to inspire & empower as many people as I can to discover and chase their dreams. It’s a dream of mine to inspire 101 million people to write down three dreams on paper and go chase them.I’m so grateful that it’s now sold over 120,000 copies all over the world – and has inspired thousands and thousands of readers to make wonderful positive changes in their lives.Just the other day I bumped into David Lee-Schneider who told me he’d read my book and thanked me for the impact it’s had on his life. So, I invited him onto the podcast for you to hear his story… which contains some great learnings for us all!Listen in to this episode to learn:Why it’s so important to know that it’s possible for you to design & create the life of your dreams.Why the best place to start is to take time out to dream up how you want your future to look.How knowing what your highest values are will guide you to make great decisions in all areas of your life.How sometimes all you need is a little spark of inspiration from a book, a workshop or a trusted friend.How my book Your Dream Life Starts Here is a great place to start.The importance of travel.How supporting your children’s dreams can have a massive impact on their lives.How amazing it is to do what you love every day.How to turn a daily walk into a great learning opportunity.The amazing power of sharing your dreams with others.…and how important it is to listen to your heart. I can’t wait to hear what you think of this episode – so please let me know either in the comments below or in our Dream Life Podcast Facebook group here.And please share it with anyone who you feel may benefit from it.
