Fearless Future w/ Catherine McCourt

Meet Goose McGrath, an adventure seeker who took his life to the edge of what most would consider unfathomable. Not quite sure why someone would choose this as the "living on the edge" venture but clearly its taught him so much about himself and the world around us. We dive into his transformation from alcohol and drug addiction that left him broke and living  on his office floor to building a $20+M tech business in real estate in under four years.  Goose shares his insights on business and life design and what keeps him healthy and successful today.

Can't catch a break and feeling stressed out, overwhelmed or burnt out?
Having trouble sticking to your New Years Resolution or goals in general?

Have you considered how to design "HUMAN STRATEGIES" that can help you achieve what you want and do all that it is you wish to do?

Let's dive into this short episode on "DEVELOPING YOUR HUMAN STRATEGY". 

When we fail at sticking to our goals or even New Years Resolutions it chips away at our confidence. It allows the self sabotage to enter and we fall back into habits that may not be serving us. BUT, just know that you are not alone!

In fact, in an article in Forbes.com it states that "80% of people ditch their resolutions by February".

I chalk this up to having a lack of human strategy. We tend to be good at building strategies for our careers and our business but we often neglect to build our "personal" strategy to achieve them.

Have a listen and see how 'YOU' can begin designing your personal "human strategies".

All the best on your journey!

SLEEP IS UNDERRATED!

Yes I know, if you could get more sleep you would. Too often we don't even recognize how long we have gone without real good sleep. We just keep riding the "hustle train" and keep moving forward. But at what cost?  What is the cost of not getting enough sleep? More than you realize.

In this episode I talk about what could be disrupting your sleep and tips on how to start consciously bringing more sleep into your life. We ALL need sleep to function at an optimal level and letting a lack of it go on too long can cost you.

Not only do you need sleep but, your children and partner need you to sleep. Your job and or business need you to sleep. To be present, make better decisions and overall be a pleasure to be around....am I right?

So don't feel guilty tyring to get more sleep. Work on it and embrace it and I guarantee you it will make life a whole lot better.  If anything, becoming conscious of your sleep patterns and how much sleep feels right for you will help you function at the optimal level for 'you'.

ADDITONAL TIPS in a published blog post with Elephant Journal.

Happy ZZZZZZ's.......

Meet Mild Rungmongkonsawad who I consider to be a true example of "serial entrepreneur". She is a fearless woman who has taken her heritage, her passions and self discovery to create several successful businesses. I couldn't wait to have Mild on the show to share her journey of personal and professional transformation. Mild is proof of how living  fearlessly and following your intuition can achieve so much and in return reap rewards she likely never considered.

She not only had to learn a new language but a new culture while building each of her businesses. You see Mild isn't from North America, she  didn't have a business background and each of her business ventures are vastly different but she learned and created success in each one. In return, they have  contributed to Mild understanding herself deeper and understanding what truly drives her which, has led her to her ultimate venture of becoming a Realtor. Not because she loves sales but because she loves connection and giving back to others. In her own words, she is not just a realtor. She is a mentor, coach, friend and support system for her clients. Creating these long term bonds with her clients is where Mild shines and we can't wait to see the success she breeds into this new venture!

Listen in and hear how Mild created her success and what advice she has for those carving their own entrepreneurial path!
