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

Episode 20 of the Always Better than Yesterday Interview Sessions was with Amanda Thomas, owner of the House of Harmony. Amanda gave an incredibly vulnerable and inspiring WHY Wednesday in the ABTY community and was great to be able to follow it up with an interview and ask how she had turned her life around. We dug a little deeper into her purpose and the story behind that. I also explored how Amanda nurtured and developed her intuition. Being able to strip her old negative thoughts and feelings and replace them with a clear sense of who see really is, what she values and her daily affirmations have made a significant difference in her life. Amanda is an incredible lady and I urge you to check out the full interview either on Facebook | YouTube | Podcast You will definitely be able to take something away and find some value on applying it in your own journey 💙

Ep 19 of the Always Better than Yesterday Interview Sessions was with Sonia McDonald CEO and Founder of LeadershipHQ 🙌🏻 The audio my end was terrible due to Facebook issues but here’s the thing. I was not going to miss an opportunity to speak with an inspiring role model, mentor, awesome human being and one of the worlds top 250 most influential females. No no no. So I kept smiling and hoped to add as much value as possible. Sonia wrote a book called Leadership Attitude which I love and was great to hear more about what inspired her leadership journey and what leadership means to her. I hope the talk inspires you to think and reflect on your own leadership and to pursue your potential. Brooke (Spidergirl) joined us toward the end and Sonia offered to send her a copy of her book Just Rock It. A book she wrote with her own daughter in mind. Sonia, thank you. I’m sorry the audio was terrible. It was a great pleasure sharing the space with you. 🇬🇧🇦🇺🙏🏻💙 For more of Sonia’s content head to her @soniamcdonald1 | @leadershiphq or leadershiphq.com.au

Ep 17 of the Always Better than Yesterday Interview Sessions was with Tedx speaker and entrepreneur Sara Gaver (@wheellifeconnections) I thoroughly enjoyed getting to understand Sara’s mindset.

Ep 16 of the Always Better than Yesterday Interview Sessions was with Team USA freestyle kayaker Katie Fankhouser 🇺🇸 During the interview I was blown away by the mindset that Katie has developed at 16 years of age. We spoke about confidence, overcoming fear, training, competition, setting goals and being better than yesterday. It was amazing how kayaking has given Katie confidence and how that has impacted in other areas of life. I also loved the story Katie shared about the skippy rippy. A move she created whilst competing at the world championships. Innovation under pressure. True confidence 🙌🏻 Her final message was “do what you love” and I couldn’t agree more. 👏🏻 Katie was super inspiring and is definitely an interview you should check out and certainly share with any young people in your life. 🙏🏻 Head to Katie's Facebook | Instagram (Katie Fankhouser | @Katie.Kayak) for more of her content.

Ep 15 of the Always Better than Yesterday Interview Session was with my man Chris Phillips drummer of SCOUT KILLERS 🖤 During the talk we discussed Chris’ mindset when it came to pre show nerves, overcoming set backs and empty shows as well as diving into the creativity process of creating new material with his band mates. The biggest takeaway though is the power of doing what you love. Chris wouldn’t describe himself as naturally gifted and very rarely dedicated himself to getting better at anything growing up. He always had a passion for drums so when he invested in his first kit, this started the process of Chris truly becoming better than yesterday. It is by doing what he loved that motivated him to continually learn, practice, dedicate himself to his craft and keep going in the good times and especially the hard times on the road.

In this mentor session for the WE ARE ALWAYS BETTER THAN YESTERDAY community, I share my opinions on the subject of Leadership vs. Management. You may pick up on my bias but I believe only one of these will change the world and only one of these will unlock the potential in others and that is LEADERSHIP. I hope you find the rant useful and would love to hear your view, opinions and stories of great leadership and management. Much love Ryan RyanHartley.co.uk Facebook.com/RyanHartleyABTY @Ryanbhartley

Ep 13 of the Always Better than Yesterday Interview Sessions was with the authentically inspiring @followyourwholeheart Empowerment and Wellbeing coach from Colorado, USA. Chris’ WHY is to relieve people’s suffering.

In this live I shared within the WE ARE ALWAYS BETTER THAN YESTERDAY community I talk about the concept of wallowing. I recently read the book S.U.M.O by Paul McGee and in it, he talks about Hippo Time. We are human and to be human is to feel emotion. To feel the positive we must first know what the negative feels like. In this short session you will hear that it is ok to wallow but to be mindful of three things. 1. What you share 2. Who you share it with 3. How long you stay in wallow time If this podcast adds you value, I'd love for you to subscribe and share it with the one person you feel would benefit from it.
