025 In today's podcast, we chat with Julie Delucca-Collins on the importance of mindset in young people and the three recommendations to help you improve it as parents or leaders. We discuss the importance of realising the mindset someone has and how it can impact their motivations and overall wellness. Realise that young people have to push themselves and not be afraid of failing. You need to recognise your beliefs and push through the fear and build confidence and try not to pass them on to your children or the young people you are leading. We empathise that the importance of following the mantra of outdoor learning is important "I do, we do, you do".
Your email list in your business is one of the essential assets you have contributing to your business growth.
If you are not actively collecting the email addresses of your current and prospective customers, then you are missing out on a solid approach to developing and extending your reach and your business
In this podcast, I discuss why you should have a list and the three focus areas of Collection, Storing and Connecting your email addresses.
It is breaking regulatory rules to send emails without permission, but it is easy to manage the correct approach.
Listen and connect with me with any questions.
In this podcast, I discuss the opportunity and the reasons for your business to take on digital change.
Over the last couple of years, people have been forced to take on new digital processes in their everyday life for shopping, booking, entertainment and connecting with their friends and family. This has resulted in increased confidence in using digital methods and raised expectations of what is an excellent digital experience and what is a poor one.
You as an organisation need to consider this and take the opportunity to use digital to increase connection and revenue. As an expert in digital change, I worked with companies to introduce real change and have seen them reap the benefits on many occasions.
This podcast is an introduction to why it's essential and will be followed by other podcasts looking at actual processes to make digital change count for you.

Great to be back after some time out due skiing accident and today I answer a question that I am asked regularly - how do I get started in my business, especially an outdoor activity-based business?
In this podcast, I introduce six steps I always use when starting a business and I help and coach new and experienced business owners to start or grow their businesses.
Helping to encourage and give more people opportunities to be active outdoors is my goal and helping businesses grow and serve more people is the way to help more people.
The six steps which I see as essential in starting a business and I summarise in the podcast are:
1. Identifying your vision for your company, who is the audience and what is your dream to build and create as your business. Using vision boards, identify the problem you are solving for people.
2. Viability check is key to ensure your market is practical and not too big or small to enable you to get started. Create your domain to get some momentum and progression.
3. Establish your platform to enable people to see and hear what you are doing. Creating a simple web presence and very importantly start collecting email addresses and connecting with your potential audience.
4. Collect stage is creating a reason for potential clients to leave email addresses so creating a lead magnet which is a useful download for them. This builds confidence and encourages them to leave their email for you.
5. Monetization of your business as early as possible is essential and putting your knowledge online is the way I recommend getting early income to help you build your outdoor business.
6. Promote to your market using your email list and the CRM (Customer Relationship Management) system which enable you to connect and with your social media create a strategy to extend the reach.

It is an excellent time for everybody to start reflecting and looking at what's ahead of you in your business.
There is an essential process that I would advise, reflecting over years of running companies, that you have to set down in January and I strongly suggest you have these in place.
You need to go into the first quarter of the year with the focus. I'm going to discuss six steps that I would advise from my experience.
All are worth doing when you start a new year.
1. Reflect 2. Simplify your strategy 3, Play game 4. Set your 90 day targets 5. Measure your success 6. Believe in yourself.
Let us all have a successful 2022!

#017 Your Full System Fitness is essential for all of us to consider and practice but especially in our children and young people. We often consider fitness is about how far we can run or how long we can cycle before we fell tired. This is an indicator but it is important we start to consider the whole system which includes our body, mind and everyday environment to really make sure we are the best we can be.
I discuss in the podcast Full-System-Fitness which includes:
It is these three areas combined which provide your Full System Fitness and putting a development schedule together helps us and those we support to develop.
I have created the Ignition model to develop this approach of the full system thinking and connect with me at:

#016 Do you find when you are out on walks that you see or hear something and you're not sure what it is?
It happens to me all the time. I have used many mobile apps to help inform and help identify the plant, tree or bird call.
In today's podcast, I discuss the 4 best apps I use after using many. I share why they are worth using, and I recommend you give them a try next time you are out.
In the podcast, I review:
PlantSnap
iNaturalist
iBird
Sky Safari with a secondary mention to Star Rover.
I use each of these apps and find them all great help in finding, sharing and discussing nature and what is around us.
I also mention our trail and event app in the myGeo series, information at mygeoactive.com
#015 In today's podcast, I discuss Adventure navigation based trail apps we can download to help us on or planning an adventure.
In future podcasts, I will review other apps we can download and use when we are on a walk or cycle. There are mainly three types of app for using on a trek or adventure.
1) navigation helping in you create a route and navigating the trail.
2) game-based apps to be used when on the trail.l
3) educational apps to keep informed and to learn as you go.
We will consider each in future.
The navigational apps we are reviewing today are:
With the mention of Strava and Trail Forks. Also mention our own myGeoActive apps: myGeoadventure, myGeoScatter. More information at mygeoactive.com
It is about trying them and to see what suits you, but I use them all for different adventures.
014 Motivating your family, friends and colleagues to take part in a sport, activity or hobby is something we all have to do. None more so than parents with older children, teenagers, who are in their development phase and simply not as motivated to get out and possibly push themselves.
Sean Scott is an experienced sports coach, very successful athlete and has spent over twenty years previously in the armed forces leading and directing teams in all forms of activities and excursions.
Today Sean shares his thoughts on how to keep your family motivated relating to his role as a Dad to his two now older children. Sean advisees about keeping the activity fun, achievable and rewarding.
