You’ve listened to previous episodes of Escape the Nine to Five, and you’re wondering, what on EARTH happened to Steve?
I was JUST starting to enjoy this show and he dropped off the radar.
There’s a reason.
Noticing the majority of my audience were veterinarians, I redirected the podcast, focusing on ONE audience I knew I could serve well.
If you’re ONE of those veterinarians, a medical professional, or just a working professional who wants good, evidence-based career advice, then listen to my NEW show, Next Step Vet.

This week, we're releasing an episode of the Spear and Clover Podcast. You'll recognise the host Jason Skeesick, who was our guest from last week's episode.
I'm sharing this episode, because it fits nicely with our theme, of designing a career to work for you. Jason speaks to Austin Linney about constructing your own life. Jason narrates below:
When you meet someone for the first time you can often tell if they are in momentum on the way up in life, coasting along, or struggling and on the decline. There's just a palpable impression people give off that registers at least subconsciously.
When I met Austin Linney the sense was PERFECTLY CLEAR that here is a man in momentum and on the rise to great heights.
Sure enough, his story is unbelievable. It is full of struggles, addiction, rebirth, helping others, and from the sounds of it... a great deal of success.
If you enjoy a breakthrough come-back story as much as I do you're going to love this episode!

We've all heard the saying: "Follow your passion."
It's easy to say, but what does it even mean? Some people think this is the best advice in the world, others say it's the worst advice you can give to somebody.
But what if you don't think you have a passion you can convert into paid employment?
>> OUR GUEST THIS EPISODE:
Jason is a veteran of the United States army. He went to college, got a finance degree and landed himself a great corporate job. But sitting in a financial meeting, the only person in the room he identified with was the entrepreneur sitting across the table!
He ended up betting it all on his own, starting a gym and eventually helping other entrepreneurs grow their business. He now hosts The Spear and Clover podcast, which is for renegade entrepreneurs who bet it all on their passion. They tell the story about people who saw the world as it could be and couldn't help but take action.

Have you ever felt trapped in a job and are only doing it because you feel you "should"?
Have you ever been told you "should" get a qualification and "should" get a solid job and "should" buy a house and "should" get married?
Yet people are drowning in college debt, one in three people consider their jobs as meaningless, people come trapped in their jobs to pay mortgages, and last I heard 50% of marriages end in divorce.
Are you sick of being told, this is how you "should" do things? You've gotten into this position because you've always taken the advice of other people. Your parents probably told you to get some training behind you, get a solid job, maybe even a mortgage, and then you'll be happy.
Join host Steve Oehley as he talks to Clare Mann about the myths we tell ourselves, that hold us back.

Clare Mann is a banker turned organisational psychologist. She unpacks the myths we tell ourselves we "should" do, teaching you how to get rid of the myths we tell ourselves and do things we actually want to.

>> WHAT YOU’LL LEARN:
1 How to spend more time doing things you actually want to.
2 How to get rid of the excuses we tell ourselves when we dare to change.
3 How to listen to your own voice.
>> TAKE HOME CHALLENGE: TIME SPEND.
Grab a big sheet of paper and write down exactly how you're spending your 168 hours per week. Cross out all the things you do only because you think you "should" or someone else has told you you "should". Replace these with things you want to do, including allowing time DAILY for at least 30 minutes of exercise and at least 15 minutes of meditation. I guarantee this will not only make you feel happier, but help with decision making down the road when you've got a healthier and clearer mind.

Chances are, like many others, you followed the standard path to success. You got decent grades in high school, went to college, graduated with a good degree, and then landed a solid job. But this so-called “path to success” isn’t all it's cracked up to be.
Perhaps you're looking to make a change, but you're not sure how you can leverage your interests to actually pay the bills. Maybe you've already changed jobs once or twice, but you still don’t feel fulfilled. If you know that you need to pivot, but you're not sure where to start, this is the episode for you!
If you've been following this podcast, you've likely heard snippets of your host, Steve Oehley’s story along the way.
This season, we’re dedicating a few episodes to sharing his career journey, which is full of relatable examples and actionable lessons that you can use to help you escape your nine-to-five and design the career that works for you!

Rather than looking for something new, have you ever considered something from your past? If you were given all the money in the world and you could not fail, what would you do?
The answers to these questions will give you some clue about what you should be doing. Here’s an exercise for you: In one column, write down all the things that you really enjoyed about your previous jobs. Be specific! These could also be the things that you were good at in school. In a second column, write down all the things you enjoyed doing in your childhood. Now, draw lines connecting corresponding things in both columns.
Once you’ve found the commonalities, write down three feasible things you could be doing as a job or business. Whichever one of these three things makes you feel the most excited, find a way to include it in your life!

You're stuck in a fixed job working four or five days a week. It pays alright, the work is okay, but deep down you know there is something more for you.
You've got something you are interested in, but don't quite know how you're going to make a living off it. Maybe it is something someone might call a regular job, but it's not in your current field of work.
