In this episode, Ildikó sits down with Pete Cann - The Laughter Man, a recruitment agency owner and empowerment coach. Together they explore something most later life entrepreneurs overlook: the “energetics” of business and reinvention. From Britain’s Got Talent to laughter yoga, Pete shows how breath, movement, and deliberate joy can turn nerves into excitement and much needed energy. 

If you’re building a business on your own and feel your energy getting drained this conversation offers a deceptively simple yet impactful approach to give yourself a boost and build resilience.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Energy Flows Where It’s Welcomed: Not everyone will “get” you - chasing their approval drains your power. When you intentionally lean into the people who resonate with your energy, their enthusiasm amplifies your impact and naturally brings more skeptical people along for the ride.

Vibration First, Strategy Second: Energy is contagious and foundational. We “vibrate” at the level of the people, thoughts, and practices we repeat. Laughter isn’t a side-effect; it’s a tool to shift state. By laughing on purpose — through breath, body, and play — we raise our emotional frequency first, so clarity, courage, and connection can follow.

Manifest What Matters, Not Just What Shines: Successful manifestation starts with naming what truly lights you up e.g. freedom, connection, creativity, time with loved ones – and holding that vision. When your attention and emotion stay anchored on what genuinely matters, life quietly arranges more of it.

Your Superpower Feels Like Ease: Pete sees your superpower as the thing you do in “flow” — the work that feels natural and energising. Pay attention to where effort feels light and impact feels big; that’s the gift you’re here to lean into.

BEST MOMENTS

Ildikó: "Don't pay attention to the ones who don't like you or don't get you, just pay attention to the ones that do."

Pete: "When you give your energy to people that suck your energy away, you're going to be left nothing. But if you're giving your energy to people that can reciprocate and give you energy back, then you're going to vibrate at this higher vibration."

Pete: "Entrepreneurship and solopreneur, is lonely. Going out and meeting people, especially people that are high achievers, you'll start naturally vibrating at that vibration."

Ildikó: "In the morning, when my alarm goes and I open my eyes the very first thing I do is smile.”

Pete: “My role is to connect with people, inspire people, and make people feel good and I've got a team that can do all the other lifting for me.”
