Building from the bottom

This week I go deep. I talk about my past and my experiences in foster care and how they impact me today and make me a better person.

I become truly honest and take more responsibility than ever about this past year. Especially after having a call with Luke Williams yesterday and also finding out that it has been nearly 1 year since I met with my lecturer to talk about starting a company.

The video I watched today was called Kevin Hart - Figuring it all out. It can be found on the Mulligan Brothers YouTube channel.

The book mentioned what Why We Sleep by Matthew Walker.

This week I have big news! My business is officially registered. After lots and lots of waiting it's finally here. However, I still think being patient is really important. Especially when starting a business. 

Launch is coming on Monday 15th of social media and website (if all goes to plan).

I also had my first Taco Bell with my girlfriend. The chips were sooo good. And so was the chicken. It was so filling. I also managed to have Sprite which is not as regular in Madrid as it is in the UK.

What a great character building week. More hard work to come.

Have an awesome week.

This week, I talk passionately about what I want to do in life and my vision.

It is ok to be nervous. It is part of the process. And so to prove this I read out a poem of mine which is very close to my heart.

The book I am currently reading is Why We Sleep by Matthew Walker. This will scare you to sleep more.

Have an awesome week.

Over the past few months I have been on a journey. A journey that  I am still on and will be for a while. This journey for me is of self realisation. This is me realising, becoming calm and accepting my past and my current position in life.  This is just one thing that I discuss on this podcast.

I also share the current position of my company, (very close to launching) and some of the important information I have learnt over the past week about starting a company in the UK when living abroad, with no UK address.

I hope that you enjoy.

Thanks for listening and have an awesome week.

This week on the podcast I went deeper than ever. In this episode I talk all about my why for my life. I ask myself 7 times, why I do why I do. When talking about this, family, friends, school life and my past are brought up. Things I have never mentioned on this podcast.

I also speak about gratitude and appreciating the people around you.

Another topic I speak about is my thoughts on the past 9 months and some of the things I have learnt to accept in the process.

See you next week on building from the bottom.

It's time to be honest. With you and myself. I have been slacking. HARD. 

My morning routine is virtually non-existent. I have been struggling with starting my company, starting in sales, and I've been asking myself a lot about what I am going into business for. 

My approach to money, whether that's spending and making money is shared with you in this podcast.  I put it black and white. Or maybe I am disillusion.

I would love to know your thoughts.
