    How to Stop Living Small & Unlock Your Creative Power | Rochelle Seltzer

    In this episode of the Live The Dream Podcast, Harinder Mullay speaks with Rochelle Seltzer — Creative Core Coach, speaker, artist, retreat leader and author of Live Big: A Manifesto for a Creative Life. Rochelle shares how, after owning a successful design firm for 27 years, she realised she had been living a smaller version of herself. From the outside, things looked successful — reputation, respect, achievement — but internally, she was second-guessing herself, holding back and not fully stepping into her power. This conversation explores what it really means to “live big”, why creativity is not just about painting, drawing or performing, and how every person can access creative power as a thinker, leader and human being. Rochelle explains the powerful difference between reaction and creation, how slowing down can open up new possibilities, why authenticity matters more than ever in an AI-driven world, and how creative practices can reconnect us with joy, confidence and intuition. We also discuss Rochelle’s book Live Big, her Discovery Dozen exercise, her retreats, coaching work and why asking the right questions can unlock surprising truths. In this episode, we cover: Why successful people can still feel like they are living small How to stop second-guessing yourself What “creative power” really means Why everyone is creative, even if they do not see themselves that way The difference between reaction and creation How to become more authentic, magnetic and grounded How joy and creativity fuel confidence Rochelle’s “Discovery Dozen” exercise The story behind Live Big: A Manifesto for a Creative Life How women can create bigger, bolder and more aligned lives If you have ever felt like you are capable of more, but something is holding you back, this conversation will help you reconnect with your creative power and begin creating what comes next.

    Why Face-to-Face Communication Still Matters in an AI World | Joe Ruffini

    In this episode of Live The Dream, Harinder sits down with Joe Ruffini, founder and principal consultant of JPR & Associates, LLC, a military veteran, consultant, speaker and author with decades of experience across leadership, crisis management, school safety, homeland security and business consulting. Joe brings a refreshing, no-nonsense perspective on what we risk losing in a world dominated by emails, texts, remote work and AI. Together, they explore why face-to-face communication still matters, how leaders can manage across generations, why AI should support thinking rather than replace it, and why business is ultimately still about people. Joe also shares stories from his military career, including his time working with British soldiers, lessons from consulting, and why family, trust and honest conversation should never be sacrificed for work. This conversation is a reminder that in a high-tech world, the most valuable skill may still be the most human one: knowing how to talk to people. In this episode, we cover:– Why keystrokes are replacing real communication– How AI should and should not be used in business– The danger of outsourcing your thinking– Leading across Boomers, Gen X, Millennials and Gen Z– Why good leaders serve their teams– How social connection improves performance– Joe’s definition of “living the dream”– Why family and close relationships must come first CONNECT WITH JOE: Joseph Ruffini: https://www.linkedin.com/in/joseph-a-ruffini-8a11762/ Website: https://www.jpr-online.com/ LIVE THE DREAM PODCAST: Website: https://livethedreampodcast.com Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/3qYPFLciKJ433ADl8LP8XI Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/podcast/live-the-dream-podcast/id1877688101 Instagram: https://instagram.com/livethedreampodcast LinkedIn: https://linkedin.com/showcase/live-the-dream-podcast/ Hosted by Harinder Mullay.

    How Small Daily Habits Can Transform Your Health, Energy & Inner Life | Angie DeGeronimo

    What if the life you want doesn’t require a complete reinvention — but a return to the small daily rhythms that bring you back to yourself? In this episode of Live The Dream, Harinder sits down with Angie DeGeronimo, movement and mindset coach, retreat leader, and creator of The Little Wonders Method. Angie shares her journey from running wellness studios in Silicon Valley to building House of Little Wonders, writing The Little Wonders Playbook, and helping people reconnect with their body, rhythm and inner wisdom. This conversation explores burnout, anxiety, midlife renewal, Ayurveda-inspired living, the power of simple daily habits, and why true transformation often starts with the smallest shifts — a breath, a walk, a pause, a meal eaten at the right time, or a moment of self-permission. Angie also reflects on the role of AI, why human wisdom can’t be outsourced, and how retreats create the space for people to step away from the noise and come back to what really matters. In this episode, we discuss: Why small habits can create powerful long-term changeAngie’s personal experience with burnout and rebuilding rhythmThe role of movement, mindset and Ayurveda in daily lifeWhy midlife can become a doorway into deeper alignmentThe wisdom of the body and learning to listen inwardHow retreats help people reset beyond the noise of everyday lifeWhy AI can support us, but cannot replace human wisdomThe story behind The Little Wonders Method and The Little Wonders Playbook This is a conversation for anyone who feels successful on the outside but knows their body, mind or spirit is asking for a deeper reset.

    The AI Coach Built to Challenge You, Not Flatter You | John Muldoon

    John Muldoon is the CEO and Co-founder of Interflexion, an AI-powered role-play coaching platform helping professionals build leadership, communication, sales, and interpersonal skills through guided practice and personalised feedback. Before Interflexion, John co-founded Intralinks, one of the early fintech platforms that helped transform digital deal rooms and enterprise collaboration. Now, he’s building Scarlett — a real-time situational AI coach designed to help people prepare for high-stakes conversations, from sales calls to performance reviews. In this episode of Live The Dream, John shares the story behind the “Bronx to Wall Street” insight that inspired Interflexion, why communication is breaking down inside organisations, and why AI should be used to develop human skills — not replace them. We also explore the reality of building a serious AI company, surviving COVID-era setbacks, raising capital, finding the right partners, and why many solo entrepreneurs fail because they don’t have anyone challenging their thinking. This is a conversation about AI, leadership, resilience, communication, and what it really takes to build something meaningful in a fast-changing world.

    AI Hurt Our Business, So We Went Back to Human Connection | Meghan McFall, ashTEC

    In this episode of Live The Dream, Harinder Mullay sits down with Meghan McFall, founder of ashTEC, a consulting and training organisation focused on business development, workforce strategy, economic development, and rural technical assistance. Meghan shares the story of how ashTEC was created to serve rural and tribal communities where access to technology, business support, and in-person guidance is often limited. She explains what it was like to move from government-supported business consulting into building her own private organisation — and why she felt the old model was not enough for the communities she wanted to serve. This conversation goes deep into the reality of mission-led entrepreneurship. Meghan opens up about losing major grant funding, having to close offices, laying people off, and pivoting from a free service model into a paid model while still protecting ashTEC’s impact. We also discuss one of the most important AI lessons for business owners today: ashTEC initially moved heavily into AI for marketing and lead generation, but quickly discovered that clients did not want to feel like they were dealing with a robot. Meghan explains why they pulled AI back from customer-facing communication, how referrals recovered, and where AI still belongs behind the scenes. Later in the episode, Meghan shares her ambitious next chapter: building food hubs, supporting farmers, creating zero-waste food systems, exploring drone delivery for rural communities, and expanding into Canada. This episode is about resilience, leadership, impact, rural economic development, AI, food systems, and what it really means to live the dream by helping others achieve theirs. In this episode, we cover: Why ashTEC was created to serve rural and tribal communitiesThe limitations of government-backed business consultingLosing major grant funding and rebuilding the business modelMoving from free services to a paid service modelWhy AI hurt ashTEC’s referrals and customer trustHow to use AI without losing human connectionBuilding food hubs and closed-loop agricultural systemsDrone delivery for rural and underserved communitiesWhy farmers, food access, and zero-waste systems matterMeghan’s advice for founders: launch before it is perfect 👤 Guest: Meghan Cherie McFallCompany: ashTECLegacy: Blue Ocean Legacy WM🔗 Connect with Meghan:Linked In (Personal) - https://www.linkedin.com/in/meghancherie/Linked In (Business) - https://www.linkedin.com/company/ashtec/Project - https://www.blueoceanlegacywm.com/ Website - https://ashtec.co⁠ / 🎙️ Subscribe to the podcast for more conversations with creators, entrepreneurs & changemakers.Get the latest updates and BONUS Content: https://livethedreampodcast.comMore about me and my projects: https://www.harindermullay.com/Need growth infrastructure and systems to elevate your business: http://aurexaisolutions.com/Want to learn more about my faith, check out: https://www.basicsofsikhi.com/YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/@harinder.mullayLinked In - https://www.linkedin.com/in/harinder-mullay/Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/harinder.mullay/TikTok - https://www.tiktok.com/@harinder.mullayX - https://x.com/harindermullayFacebook - https://www.facebook.com/harindermullayofficial

    From Breakdancer to Filmmaker & Founder: Why Consistency Beats Talent | Olly Ginelli

    What happens when you realise the conventional path was never really built for you?In this episode of Live The Dream, I sit down with London-based writer-director and entrepreneur Olly Ginelli, co-founder of Nostro People.Olly's journey is anything but conventional.He began as a professional breakdancer before transitioning into filmmaking — a transition he describes as an "ugly divorce." He went on to work across the commercial film industry, before a deeply personal 10-year piano project unexpectedly reached tens of millions of people after being performed on BBC television.Today, Olly is building Nostro People, a talent agency founded around a simple principle: talent isn't enough. When you're 12 hours into a difficult production, attitude, accountability and the ability to work with others matter just as much. Around 95% of Nostro's roster is vouched for by someone who has actually worked with them.We also go behind the scenes of Olly's short film The Long Spring, inspired by his experience volunteering in refugee camps in France and witnessing the darker reality of human trafficking. The screenplay later reached the top 1% of more than 4,000 submissions to BBC Writersroom, before becoming a short film now making its way through the festival circuit.We talk about:🎙️ Leaving a career you love🎙️ Delayed gratification and rejection🎙️ The reality of becoming a founder🎙️ Building Nostro People🎙️ Why attitude matters as much as talent🎙️ Learning from the world's best entrepreneurs🎙️ The Long Spring🎙️ Breaking into film festivals🎙️ Building a future production company🎙️ Why you need "half a cup of delusion" to pursue something big🎙️ And Olly's belief that consistency may be the closest thing we have to a superpowerOlly's final advice is simple:Ask questions. Stay humble. Be consistent. And work.If you're a filmmaker, creative, founder — or simply someone who's never quite fitted the traditional 9–5 — this conversation is for you.Subscribe to Live The Dream for more conversations with founders, creators and people building life on their own terms.👤 Guest: Olly GinelliCompany: Nostro PeopleFilm: The Long Spring🔗 Connect with Olly:Linked In (Personal) - https://www.linkedin.com/in/ginelli/Linked In (Business) - https://www.linkedin.com/company/nostro-people/Instagram (Personal) - https://www.instagram.com/oginelli/Instagram (Business) - https://www.instagram.com/nostropeople/Instagram (Film) - https://www.instagram.com/the_long_spring/YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCGohuve3MB8Z8ZS4WLU3tSAOlly on LADbible - https://fb.watch/JiKI2EtWFf/Special thanks to ELMNT for hosting the recording and providing such a brilliant space for the conversation.

    Most Tech Problems Are Actually People Problems | Michael Hunter

    In this episode of the Live The Dream Podcast, Harinder Mullay sits down with Michael Hunter, founder of Uncommon Teams, author of The Resilient Tech Leader, and host of the Uncommon Leadership Podcast.Michael has spent over 40 years writing and debugging code. But somewhere along the way, he realised something powerful: most technical problems are not really technical problems — they are “squishy people problems.” Today, he helps leaders, especially senior leaders in tech, debug themselves and close the gap between who everyone else tells them they should be and who they actually are.In this conversation, Michael and Harinder explore:Why technical issues often hide deeper human problemsWhat it means for leaders to “debug themselves”The layers of expectations, beliefs and rules that shape who we becomeWhy AI can never fully replace human perspective, judgement and lived experienceHow leaders can reconnect with curiosity, alignment and their own version of living the dreamWhy small experiments can help us move closer to who we really areMichael also shares a powerful analogy about the octopus, the grain of sand and the pearl — showing how human beings can start full of wonder, then become layered with expectations that may not actually belong to them.If you’re a founder, coach, consultant, tech leader or anyone navigating change in an AI-driven world, this episode will challenge you to look beyond the tools and ask a deeper question:What human problem are we really trying to solve?👤 Guest: Michael Hunter🔗 Connect with Michael:Free copy of his book: https://uncommonteams.com/the-resilient-tech-leader/Contact: michael@uncommonteams.comLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/humbugreality 🎙️ Subscribe to the podcast for more conversations with creators, entrepreneurs & changemakers.Get the latest updates and BONUS Content: https://livethedreampodcast.comMore about me and my projects: https://www.harindermullay.com/Need growth infrastructure and systems to elevate your business: http://aurexaisolutions.com/Want to learn more about my faith, check out: https://www.basicsofsikhi.com/YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/@harinder.mullayLinked In - https://www.linkedin.com/in/harinder-mullay/Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/harinder.mullay/TikTok - https://www.tiktok.com/@harinder.mullayX - https://x.com/harindermullayFacebook - https://www.facebook.com/harindermullayofficial
