Julie is talking to Richard Stone about both his professional journey to successful business owner and the challenges to his mental health and well-being along the way.

They discuss the role of stress and carrying forward the burden of situations that did not have a positive outcome and the vital importance of coaches, mentors and mastermind groups to help get things in perspective and unpack the challenges. If you can understand and learn how to lean into and face the difficult situations then you can solve the problem and move forward successfully.

 

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• If you can get on with the people you work with and try to provide what they want then it will help you to move forward.
• Whatever we are doing other people are watching and we are making an impression
• My attitude to any work project is - always do it right then you only have to do it once
• It’s all about the relationships. When you go in with good values and good morals people respond.
• If you lean into the discomfort you are more likely to be able to solve the problems.
• There can be a huge human cost when working intensively on a project to get it to completion.
• There are negative and insidious effects with stress and its vital you listen to what your body is telling you.
• The changes that your body undergoes when it is under stress are involuntary and the longer you remain in the situation the more damage is done potentially leading to death.
• Don’t ignore the signals, you must deal with the situation that is causing you the stress.
• It’s OK to not be OK and it’s fine to ask for help to get through the not OK bits.
• We can be really good at operating in an imperfect world it’s all about how you can deliver in an ever-changing world.
• Masterminds are where the real power lies because not everyone is on the same journey or going to the same place.
• Knowledge is the only thing in life that no one can take away from you, it important to never stop learning.
• Make sure your people skills are great because everyone wants to be heard, seen and understood.

ABOUT THE HOST

Julie Hogbin

I started my career within the accountancy profession, moving on into auditing, then Learning & Development where I have spent over 30 years.

 

In 2011 I threw everything up in the air and became a property investor via forex, trading and learning how to build websites & internet market whilst walking on fire 😊

 

I have worked with over 20,000 Leaders at every level of Management and Leadership for over 30+ years. In the latter years working with CEOs, SMTs, boards of trustees & Entrepreneurs.

 

I have worked with the public, the private and the entrepreneurial sectors of the market. The Leadership messages are the same across the sectors – the application may be different but all are Business’ where Conscious and Principled Leadership reaps rewards for all parties concerned.

 

I work with the human element of Business and my passion is enabling others to be the best they can be through providing them with the information they need to be more effective than they currently are. Unleashing potential and providing knowledge enabling the best decisions to be made for the Business, the Employee, the Leader (themselves) their families and the greater social economy.

 

I am a Coach, a Mentor (and I know the difference) Trainer, Author, property investor and public speaker

 

I love to travel, sunshine, smiley people, intelligent conversation, laughter, learning, networking, supporting others, property as a business, investigating ‘stuff’ problem solving, asking questions that make people think, creating aha moments, gardening and flowers and being outside.
