    The Freedom of Flexible Habits with Guest Expert Alice Dartnell

    The Freedom of Flexible Habits with Guest Expert Alice Dartnell

    Unlock the transformative power of habits and accountability with our esteemed guest, Alice Dartnell, as she returns to the podcast with a treasure trove of wisdom from her newest venture into the world of accountability events and her upcoming session today and also in May. As I share my journey from the cutthroat corporate ladder to the nurturing embrace of entrepreneurial collaboration, you'll discover the abundant growth that springs from a community-focused business approach. Listen closely—this conversation will reshape your understanding of how shared ideas and honest dialogue can revolutionize not just your professional life but your personal development too.

    Join us from the vibrant energy of Cambodia, where Alice has been soaking in new experiences that enrich her already diverse career portfolio. This episode isn't just about the 'what' of positive habits and routines; it's about the 'how'—integrating them into our lives to create a lifestyle by choice, not chance. We tackle the misconception that habits are rigid and unyielding, and instead, we showcase their adaptability and the freedom they offer, even when life throws us curveballs. Whether it's adjusting fitness goals after an unexpected accident or modifying daily practices to align with fluctuating energy levels, this conversation is a testament to the resilience that comes with adaptable habits.

    We wrap up with an insightful look at our upcoming event, "Creating a Life by Design," where practical skills meet creative thought in a collaborative setting designed to spark your next big idea. Imagine an environment where shared growth isn't just a concept, but a tangible practice, and where the support of like-minded individuals propels you toward the life you've envisioned. A heartfelt thank you to Alice for her candidness and invaluable insights, and an invitation to you, our listeners, to engage with these ideas, attend our events, and embrace the power of personal accountability on your path to transformation.

    Charting Success: Reflections and Insights from a Mortgage Broker's Journey

    Charting Success: Reflections and Insights from a Mortgage Broker's Journey

    Have you ever wondered what kind of wisdom you'd impart to your younger self after navigating the unpredictable tides of a career? Marty Naan joins us to reflect on his two-year saga as a self-employed Mortgage Broker, where he unveils the growth he's experienced and the advice he'd whisper to his past self. His candid tales, including St. Patrick's quirky visit to his hometown, are not just entertaining but steeped in the rich tapestry of cultural heritage, offering both light-hearted chuckles and profound insights.

    Navigating the professional seas can often be solitary, but the beacon of client reviews reminds us that we're not alone. In our conversation, the significance of customer feedback is illuminated, standing as a testament to credibility in the vast ocean of business. I share how one heartfelt review can echo as a source of reassurance and motivation, providing a much-needed wind in the sails for those of us charting a course through the service industry's challenging waters.

    As we turn the rudder towards the evolution of social media, we explore the shift from content quantity to the magnetic pull of authenticity. Martin and I discuss the balance needed to create an online presence that resonates with real stories and genuine advice, rather than just noise. We close by pondering the dynamic landscape of mortgage brokering, inviting you to join us in facing the industry's changes with resilience and a thirst for knowledge. Stay tuned for more episodes where we'll continue to share our navigational charts through the ever-changing world of mortgages.
