Everyone gets stuck from time to time.  Everyone has moments when they feel as if they’re languishing more than they’re thriving.  The problem for many people, however, is that the beliefs they have about why they’re stuck are often inaccurate.  Therefore, the strategies that they employ to get unstuck are flawed.  This puts them into a vicious cycle.  The harder they try, the more stuck they get. 

My guest for this episode is Nic Jarvis.  He’s an NLP Master with an extensive background in leadership development in the fitness and leisure industry.  I’ve been fortunate to work with Nic on multiple projects as well as co-present with him on a few occasions.  I’ve always found his insights to be brilliant, and his demonstrated skill as a coach to be invaluable.
