Always Better than Yesterday with Ryan Hartley | A Podcast for Heart Centred Leaders

Ep 59 of the Always Better than Yesterday Interview Sessions was with Emma-Louise Munro Wilson founder of emari.co.uk Hearing Emma-Louise talk about her story and the challenges she’s overcome in her life, I couldn’t help but be inspired by what she shared. One thing I love that she now does as a result of her challenges in the past is to never miss an opportunity to tell people how much they mean to her. Hopefully hearing this episode will inspire you to make the most of that before we have to experience loss in our life. I also enjoyed how Emma-Louise is showing up with Emari in a way that is true and consistent with her values and beliefs. Another practical tip that was shared were the 7 questions she asks herself daily. My favourite of this were have I loved enough, what have I learned and have I made a difference.

Ep 56 of the Always Better than Yesterday Interview Sessions was with elf love expert and manifesting Queen Gina Swire 👑 Gina is on a global mission to help a billion women fall madly in love with themselves. After struggling with her own self-worth and image issues, Gina quit her career as a plus sized model at the height of her fame in order to embark on her own journey of transformation. This was such a powerful conversation. Gina’s transformation happened from the inside out. At the levels of her identity and her beliefs. Once she begun to love and accept herself her friends began to notice on the outside. “I chose to love and accept myself” I also loved Gina’s commitment to remove things from her life that no longer served her. A true testament to self love and creating healthy boundaries. There was so much insight and value in this conversation.

Ep 54 of the Always Better than Yesterday Interview Sessions was with Efrem Brynin, director of Strongmen, a charity that aims to tackle emotional and mental health issues brought about by the suffering from bereavement.  I was a little more nervous before this episode, mainly because I had heard Efrem speak at the Mind Yourself LYL event and it's safe to say I shed a few tears hearing his story.  It was at that event that I realised the power that one talk or one podcast can have on our lives. I realised it can be life changing. Perspective changing.  Sadly, in 2013 Efrem's son was killed on his second tour of Afghanistan.  In 2016 Efrem was #11 on SAS Who Dares Wins Series 2, an experience which likely saved his life as it was there he displayed symptoms that led to his cancer diagnosis.  Not only has he overcome cancer and now in remission, he has joined forces with Dan Cross from Series 3 of SAS WDW and Ollie Ollerton in setting up StrongMen. There is so much in this conversation we can learn from. Perspective. Purpose. Leadership. Courage. Resilience. Health and well-being.  For me, i'm inspired to live more in the moment, make the most of the simple things and to focus on making the best out of life and situations.  If you are or know a man who is struggling with emotional and mental health issues as a result of bereavement, do share www.StrongMen.org.uk with them.  It could change their life for the better.  I'd love to know what you take away from this powerful conversation.  Interview also available on Facebook and YouTube.  Much love Ryan 

This week I started listening to Dottir by Katrin Davidsdottir 2x fittest woman on earth. Just the foreword itself got me hooked. It was written by Katrin’s coach Ben Bergeron Ben talks about building athletes from the inside out. It’s something I believe in too with mindset and leadership coaching.   He goes on to describe 4 character traits that he looks for when taking on a new athlete.   1. Coachable 2. Confidence 3. Positivity 4. Passion   I’ve given a quick summary of what these character traits mean in my latest podcast (Link in bio).   It’s a short 5 minute episode. Go check it out.   I’m a couple of chapters through the book. It’s so good.   I will be sure to share my learning with you and who knows, maybe one day I’ll get to interview Katrin and ask her all my curious questions about her mindset.   Much love Ryan 💙
