On a Mission Podcast

How To Navigate the Impending Storm - with Rob Moore Dec 20, 2021

Show notes

For the Christmas special of the On a Mission podcast, I’m live with the Disruptive Entrepreneur himself, Rob Moore.

Rob was the first-ever guest on the show and as a firm favourite with the listeners, it was a pleasure to have him back to have some straight talk around the pressing matters of today.

With further lockdowns looking inevitable and vaccine passports likely to increase to smaller venues, we talk about the impact that is likely to have on small businesses and whether the government should be doing more to provide support.

Despite the challenges, there are also lots of opportunities for the entrepreneurs amongst us. Rob shares his insights into the best ways to build and preserve wealth moving into the New Year as well as how he’s 10 X’d his own social media following in 2021.

This interview is full of practical advice but we don’t shy away from the controversy either.

Another unmissable episode!

Success Is How High You Bounce When You Hit Rock Bottom - and with Adam Ashburn Dec 17, 2021

Show notes

This week I’m on a Mission with Adam Ashburn, marketer extraordinaire, and one of the first members of the incredible Empire companies, having used his marketing skills to raise the company up from a small concern to a seven-figure business.

Adam joins me to share his heartfelt and sometimes highly personal story, one that has been beset with challenges but which has now flourished into true success, as well as the techniques that he has developed and used across his business journey - ones that have enabled the Empire group of companies to become some of the most successful in the UK.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

From a leadership point of view, we attain much more credibility if we have been hands-on when it comes to the different facets of running a business.
Many businesses talk about values and beliefs, and how they should be at the heart of the company. But many seem to forget this vital tenet as they grow larger. Values are what set us apart.
Marketing is not a static process. Marketing is constantly evolving and must be treated as an organic, bespoke experience every time.
It's okay to be down sometimes. We need to give ourselves a break when the challenges get too much. Displaying an emotional response to a situation is not a sign of weakness.

BEST MOMENTS

'I started to fall in love with the whole process around growing a business'

'You absolutely do need to roll your sleeves up and just get stuck in'

'Everything we do is filtered through the values'

'Marketing is understanding people well enough so that you can get a message across to them appropriately'

Question Everything - with Dan Astin-Gregory Dec 15, 2021

Show notes

It was a pleasure to bring back one of our most popular guests to date, Dan Astin-Gregory, the founder of Elevate MEDIA and host of the Pandemic podcast.

Dan is an entrepreneur, strategist and inspirational thought leader who has impacted the lives of more than 500,000 people from over 90 different countries with his work in human potential, leadership and entrepreneurship.

More recently Dan has been in the public limelight for the extensive campaigning he has done to bring us the untold story of the pandemic which has been received by over one million followers.

Despite the backlash, Dan has continually challenged the mainstream narrative and brought fascinating insights from some of the most qualified professionals across the world to challenge the global elite.

Whatever your views are around the Covid-19 narrative, I would encourage everyone to keep an open mind and question everything.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

When we remove the more hysterical voices from the COVID conversation, we can begin to have dialogue that is less reactionary and more constructive.
Once we give power over our lives to governments, they rarely relinquish that power without a hard fight. We must ensure that we do not trade our freedoms forever in exchange for short term benefits.
The key to unifying society is not to place people into silos or boxes. We must listen with empathy and respond with understanding. The solution must come from a place of acceptance, not division.
Dehumanisation is occurring in enlightened society now. We have spent generations stating that this level of discrimination will never happen again, but yet we are now experiencing a wholesale embargo upon people's beliefs and feelings.

BEST MOMENTS

'There's a level of understanding that we can now garner from two years of data'

'I'm putting the foundation in place for long term change'

'These rights and freedoms are under threat and it's not temporary'

'By empathising, it helps me to gain a greater understanding of how they have come to their perspective and understanding of the world'

The World Is In Judgement - with Simone Milasas Dec 13, 2021

Show notes

All the way from down under we have the fabulous Simone Milasas, an innovative business leader, author and a leading Facilitator with Access Consciousness, which is currently facilitated in more than 175 countries.

Simone talks about the principles of success that she has nurtured, and how it has helped to empower others especially as we navigate through such difficult times.

It’s never too late to reinvent our own path in life, an empowering episode from a phenomenal lady designed for anyone looking to live their best life!

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Sometimes the pathways to where we truly belong in life, can only be shown to us by those with an external perspective
Nurturing ourselves is not about following the guidelines and statutes set out by society. It is about listening to the voice inside and feeding the need it's asking for.
We constantly ask for certain things in life, and so when the universe grants them to us, we need to recognise that we are being a gift. Embrace and it and see where it takes you.
We all stumble and fall. We all trip up sometimes. But when these happen, you can't sit back and hope life will repair itself. You have to take action and keep moving forward.

BEST MOMENTS

'No matter what is showing up, you've got this'

'I really do think you have to look at what works for you'

'There's a whole world out there, let's explore it!'

'I say yes to opportunities and I go where the wind takes me'

How To Find The Fuel For Success with Lisa Johnson Dec 10, 2021

Show notes

This week I’m On a Mission with female pruning a highly successful podcast, and engaging in public speaking.

Lisa isn’t scared to speak her mind and her straight-talking approach to life and business makes her a force to be reckoned with. She’s real, she’s raw and she’s unstoppable!

An unmissable episode full of inspiration werhouse and The Queen of Passive Income, Lisa Johnson.

The renowned business strategist came blazing in the scene as she went from £30,000 in debt to profits of multi seven figures in less than four years, as well as.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

When we find success in life, it can often help if we relate the story of how we achieved it, in the hopes that it might inspire others. By raising others up, we raise ourselves up.
Challenge and adversity may feel like setbacks at the time, but they are also the fuel for success - the driving force that pushes us to be better and achieve more.
Success is certainly as aspirational thing, and we should always work hard in order to achieve it. But success must never come at the cost of things that make us truly happy. Fulfilment in life comes from being present for our loved ones.
We all have a knowledge base that can be used to provide a passive income, no matter how insignificant we may believe it is. Look for the passive income earner in your own life and make it work for you.

BEST MOMENTS

'I thought people can tell me who I am, or I can decide who I am, and it changed my life'

'Adversity is the fuel for success'

'I realised that if this was what it took, then I didn't want this life'

'If anyone's ever asked "Can I pick your brains?", that means "Can you sell me something?"'

Empowering Business By Empowering Women - with Lucienne Shakir Dec 06, 2021

Show notes

In this weeks high energy episode I’m On a Mission with Lucienne Shakir, a visionary coach in the field of female empowerment with a huge vision to improve corporate infrastructures!

A very thought provoking episode where I found myself challenging my own beliefs as we got into some frank discussions. Lucienne has overcome her own adversity to find her voice which she now uses brilliantly to raise others up. We talk into the mindset that’s required when it comes to growing and scaling a business, and so much more.

Another fantastic guest with some great insights.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

We sometimes feel a lack of confidence when it comes to speaking out for fear that door will close to us. Overcoming this fear takes bravery and resilience, but the rewards can change the landscape for yourself and others.
Many new business owners seem to develop a sense of impatience when they come to market, little realising that the journey itself is what matters. Learning to be the best enables you to remain the best when you reach the top.
Equality is not necessarily about including everyone. It is also about raising those up who are at the bottom so as to ensure that the scales are balanced.
Men have to navigate difficult situations and their own social burdens, but women's issues are entirely different category. Women have to endure far more in the way of challenge, and troublingly these behaviours have become normalised.

BEST MOMENTS

'The more I see people like you doing this, the more I feel like I can'

'If you're going to lead then you've got to lead. You've got to push the boundaries'

'There have been a lot of things that have happening in my life that have been down to inequality, that have given me the drive that I need to speak up about this stuff'

'It's my deep inner mission to see more people represented'

Supporting Others Through A Focussed Vision - with Rich Liddle Dec 03, 2021

Show notes

This week I’m on a mission with Rich Liddle who is the veteran of a highly successful career in the military where he was deployed to Iraq, Afghanistan, Libya and Syria, counting himself as a part of every military conflict the UK has taken part in, since 1998.

Rich discusses his transition into business which has proved highly successful, the work he has done to help others through the Supported Living Gateway and eradicating homelessness - missions in life that have proved to be his most challenging and rewarding so far.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

We must take our financial advice from the best people - those who are further down the road that we wish to travel ourselves. Far too often, the advice sector is crowded with salespeople whose advice is not tailored to the journey we wish for ourselves.
Property investing is a marvellous way to build an empire in the background. For Rich, investing was able to take place behind his military career, providing a financial foundation that continued once his military service was complete.
As men, we tend to mask our problems for fear of reducing our alpha appeal. Preventing conversations from taking place around our mental health prevents a cure being found.
Many today fall into the trap of investing with the aim of getting rich quick. If we remove this component and look to the long term, then the results are far more robust. Investing for life is about changing our mind-set.

BEST MOMENTS

‘When somebody says you can't do it, you feel you've got to'

'You want to learn from those who are further ahead on the path that you want to walk'

'It's more important to buy an asset that's going to grow with you for the future'

'It's not about timing the market, it's time in the market'

Secrets Of A Born Entrepreneur - with Ann Marie Woodall Nov 29, 2021

Show notes

This week I’m on a mission with Ann Marie Woodall, the author of 'Secrets Of A High-heeled Healer', and also a healer, success coach and ex-playboy bunny who knows more than most about making the most of life.

We talk about her incredible life so far, how she has always nurtured the entrepreneurial spirit inside herself, the true meaning of legacy, the value to be found in being yourself, and how leaps of faith can sometimes lead to a whole new level of understanding.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Some people are just born to be entrepreneurs. They are the ones who can look at their lives, or any given situation, and see the opportunities to be had.
Legacies should never be judged upon how much money you have in the bank. The true legacies we leave are about the impact we make.
People are drawn to others who are more naturally themselves. When we put on masks and fronts, it can be rather obvious, and can seem as though we are hiding something. Being natural and comfortable in our skin is attractive to others.
Change sometimes requires an act of bravery in order to take effect. If we become too comfortable then it can be harder to recognise when things aren't right. Leaps of faith lead to new directions.

BEST MOMENTS

'It was in-built into me, never to be poor'

'People like people who are normal'

'I thought to myself, there has to be more to life than this'

'You want to start learning about your psyche. I wanted to understand why I did the things I did'

Self Awareness Leads To Self Improvement - with James Burtt Nov 26, 2021

Show notes

This week, Ellie is joined by audio entrepreneur and branding strategist, performance coach and iTunes Top 50 podcaster, James Burtt.

James talks about his fascinating journey through a musical career and into business, why honesty matters when it comes to putting your message out into the world, the wisdom he's found in the most unlikely places, and why we should always be ready when opportunity arrives.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Many people document their wins, but life isn't always about constant victories. Some days you are faced with challenges, and talking about these can prove invaluable to others.
Opportunities arise from the most unlikely of places at times. We must never remain closed off to chances to do things differently as the journey can lead to some incredible new places.
In business and life, it can be challenging when our partners do not share or understand our visions and goals, as it can produce a friction.
When we find ourselves in low places, it is not necessary to have all the answers. All we need to do is make sure we're putting one foot in front of the other and moving forward in some small way.

BEST MOMENTS

'What I'm committed to doing is finding what's in it for someone else'

'The first step towards self-improvement is being self-aware'

'It's better to know than to not know'

'Inner grit is a refusal inside you to give up and accept that that is your reality'
