ABOUT THE HOST

Meet Gavin Watson, your friendly neighbourhood entrepreneur, business strategist, consultant, and coach. With over 15 years of experience rubbing shoulders with the giants of the online world, Gavin’s journey from corporate ladder climber to coaching innovator is both inspiring and refreshingly relatable.

Gavin, originally from Doncaster in Yorkshire, like many, dutifully followed society’s script – good grades, a steady job, the whole shebang. But long hours, a lacking social life, and the never-ending grind of the rat race left him feeling like a hamster on a wheel.

Since then, Gavin has launched businesses – both online and offline, authored books, and even started his own coaching programmes. Through online coaching, face-to-face coaching, and this podcast, he’s on a mission to empower you to reach your full potential in business, life, and beyond.

Gavin has a real passion for business strategy and helping others get clear on their idea, niche and ideal clients!

Podcast Description

Ready to dive deep into the minds of the most innovative thinkers and game-changers in the business, strategy, online marketing, coaching & course creation and mindset world?

Join me, Gavin Watson, as we explore the cutting-edge strategies, mind-bending mindset shifts, and unbelievable success stories of the world’s greatest entrepreneurs, coaches, marketers, strategists, and business psychologists.

I’m on a journey to help as many people as I can who are struggling to get their online course or coaching business launched or profitable.

Whether you’re itching to kickstart your own online business, craving some fresh inspiration for your side hustle, or just love geeking out about the entrepreneurial journey, this is the podcast for you.

Every episode is overflowing with practical tips, juicy insights, and tales that’ll have you nodding in agreement or shaking your head in disbelief - don’t forget to bring your pen and notepad!

In this episode, Gavin is joined by Lisa Johnson, a serial entrepreneur speaker, global business strategist, Sunday Times best-selling author and mum of twins. In just 7 years, she went from being £30,000 in debt to making £20 million+.  Today, she helps others to get clear on their own strategies to earn a passive or semi-passive income.

She and Gavin discuss why getting your mindset right is essential. They talk about the role it plays in your ability to put yourself out there, and consistently take the right action.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• Getting your mindset right is essential.
• You can be taught the best strategies, but without the right mindset, you won´t take action.
• It is very important to be visible. If you do not put yourself out there, people will never find you.
• Fear of being trolled is one of the biggest hindrances to visibility.
