🌴 Beyond business feat. Alan Weiss
What makes someone more interesting, more insightful, and better at what they do?
In this episode of Talk the Walk, Leanne and Alan go well beyond business. They explore why a full life outside work, including hobbies, culture, travel, current events, films, ideas, and even the everyday chaos of tradies and repairs, can sharpen your thinking rather than distract from it.
Alan shares why the most valuable consultants are often polymaths, not specialists trapped in a narrow lane. From Oscar film reviews to global politics, first world problems, confidence, self-worth, and the danger of living life through a screen, this conversation moves across the map and lands on one central point: your work gets better when your world gets bigger.
They also dig into what it means to live in the moment, why curiosity matters, how confidence fuels great thinking, and why you’re responsible for making something of your life instead of sitting back and waiting.
In this conversation:
- Why having a “whole life” gives your work more depth
- How wide interests can make you a stronger marketer and thinker
- The difference between ego and esteem
- Why people are desperate for spaces that go beyond pure business talk
- Alan’s thoughts on confidence, critical thinking, and personal power
- Why capturing everything can stop you from actually living it
- The line that sums it all up: you’re not here to go in the water, you’re here to make waves
