    016 - Why You’re More Than You Think - Exploring the Innate Self with Jules Kuroda

    Send us Fan Mail In this episode of Life With Purpose, I’m joined by Jules Kuroda, leadership coach and author of The N8 Self: You Are More Than Your Mind, Body and Emotion. We explore what lies beyond traditional personal development and why our higher nature - the part of us that longs for meaning, contribution, connection and creativity - deserves more attention. Jules shares how the eight characteristics of the N8 Self can help us rediscover who we truly are and live more authentically, not just in our personal lives but in leadership too.  We discuss the difference between recognition and contribution, why many of us struggle with creativity, and how meaning doesn’t always come from big life missions - it’s also found in everyday moments. If you’ve ever felt like something deeper is missing, this is the conversation for you. For more insights, tips, and guidance on living a meaningful life, visit Mel Harrowsmith Coaching.

    015 - How to Have a Happy Birthday (Really!) - With Tamar Hurwitz-Fleming

    Send us Fan Mail When was the last time you truly enjoyed your birthday? In this uplifting and eye-opening episode, I’m joined by Tamar Hurwitz-Fleming – writer, spiritual teacher, and author of How to Have a Happy Birthday.  Tamar shares why birthdays matter more than we think, how they offer a unique opportunity to celebrate ourselves, and how we can reclaim joy in a way that feels authentic (even if you’re not usually a fan of birthdays). We explore everything from birthday blues and self-sabotage to the power of ritual, boundaries, and reflection. You’ll hear why birthdays can be transformational – not just once a year, but as a blueprint for living with greater presence, self-love, and purpose. Expect thoughtful insights, gentle challenges to your assumptions, and a renewed sense of what it means to honour yourself – not just on your birthday, but every day. 💫 Visit howtohaveahappybirthday.com to learn more about Tamar and her book.

    014 - Spines, Surgery & Sheer Determination: How Andrew "Patto" Patterson Redefined Resilience

    Send us Fan Mail Former professional cricketer Andrew "Patto" Patterson had a career most athletes dream of, playing for Ireland, Sussex, and Bedfordshire. But in 2013, everything changed when he was diagnosed with Hereditary Spastic Paraplegia (HSP) - a condition that threatened to confine him to a wheelchair for life. Instead of accepting his fate, Patto took on the ultimate challenge. From major spinal surgery in the USA (where two-thirds of his nerves were severed!) to gruelling rehab and an incredible 5K walk in May 2024. Now a motivational speaker, Patto shares his raw, honest, and often humorous take on resilience, mindset, and adapting when life throws the unexpected at you. In this episode, we dive into: ✅ The moment he knew something wasn’t right ✅ The brutal reality of living with HSP ✅ His decision to risk everything for a chance to walk again ✅ Why resilience isn’t just about bouncing back - it’s about coming back stronger ✅ The life lessons he now shares as a speaker Patto’s story is proof that when life changes, you can change with it - on your own terms. 🎧 Listen now for an inspiring dose of perspective, grit, and good humour!
