  • # 17 Danielle Serpico: The Crash Wiped Out My 3 Restaurants... This Skill Saved My Life

    👉 Follow the show + leave a 5-star rating to help more people become shameless dreamers and turn vision into reality.⁩



    What happens when your entire world collapses overnight?



    Danielle Serpico spent 16 years running restaurants, until the Celtic Tiger crash wiped everything out.



    At 36, she lost her businesses and nearly her life… then realised she’d never built self-worth.

    Hitting rock bottom forced her to change - and led her to NLP, where she discovered how to rewire the subconscious mind and rebuild from within.



    In this episode, we dive into:

    🟧 The collapse that brought her to her lowest point

    🟧 How NLP “saved her life” by changing her inner dialogue

    🟧 The difference between confidence vs. self-worth

    🟧 Why most people stay stuck in the “fur-lined mousetrap” of comfort

    🟧 Her mission to build emotional intelligence and make the world kinder

    🟧 The Black Belt mindset: why resilience is built by never giving up



    Whether you’re facing failure, battling self-doubt, or looking for a new way forward, Danielle’s story is proof that rock bottom can become the turning point.

    👉 Follow the show + leave a 5-star rating to help more shameless dreamers turn vision into reality.



    What happens when you burn the script everyone else tells you to follow?



    Finbar Horgan was on track for the “safe life” - law degree, 9-to-5 job, permanent pensionable security. But a chance gig in Gran Canaria flipped everything.



    In this episode, we dive into:

    - The moment he ditched the law degree and never looked back

    - Family pressure + “Catholic guilt in sales”

    - Why leaving your hometown changes everything

    - How he grew his YouTube channel from 0 → 27K in half a year (now 30K)

    - The mindset shift: “Comfort zone = where dreams go to die”



    Whether you’re stuck in a job you hate or dreaming of building something of your own, Finbar’s story proves it’s possible to break free, and thrive.
