  • Mastering Life And Destiny - with Dr. John Demartini
    Dr. John Demartini, known as the "Godfather Of Personal Development", is a polymath and a world-renowned human behaviour expert, with a four-decade body of work and studies into the human condition that has been described as "an extensive library of wisdom" and "wisdom of the highest and most valuable order".
    In this very special episode, Ellie is on a mission to get to know the man whose own mission in life has always been to share knowledge and wisdom that empowers the world, enabling all to become masters of their own lives and destinies.
    KEY TAKEAWAYS
    Challenges are there to be overcome, with each providing lessons that help us throughout life, and opportunities to show gratitude. Surmounting these obstacles provides fuel for future growth.
    What we think about ourselves, what we visualise for ourselves, and what we say to ourselves, followed by the actions and directions we take, determine our personal destinies.
    Prioritising is crucial in self-development. We only have so much time in a day, and so many years of life to enjoy. It is incumbent upon us to make sure that the knowledge we use to feed our minds is of the highest quality.
    We must ask questions so as to reveal the downsides of what we admire and the upsides of what we despise, and hold ourselves accountable, then we balance the equation and cease to be controlled by the world around us.
    BEST MOMENTS
    'Whatever happens in your life is ultimately on the way, not in the way'
    'You have a body, you have a mind, and you have a soul'

  • How The Power Of Property Can Change Your Life - with Laura Muse

    This week, Ellie talks to the founder of iSquared Property, podcaster, public speaker, and property marketing strategist, Laura Muse, about her own journey through the world of property investment, battling through a variety of challenges, and how by doing so she has taken each learning and used the power of property to change the lives of herself and her family.

    KEY TAKEAWAYS

    • Many believe that the traditional methods of saving and investing in property are the only ways to enter the world of property. But by educating ourselves, and building our strategic tool belt, we realise that there are many more creative ways to invest.
    • There's no such thing as get rich quick, but you can achieve financial freedom and build an enviable array of assets through hard work, dedication and resilience. Property investing is about facing challenges and learning lessons.
    • Property is an asset that brings generational wealth. By beginning small and growing incrementally, we increase our income, and our ability to reinvest and develop the portfolios that can lead to financial freedom.
    • Relationships are the highest form of currency. We should always be open to building our network, as when you look after people, your investment in that relationship can pay back tenfold, especially in terms of investment capital.
    • BEST MOMENTS

      'Buying one a year just was not at our pace'

      'We had to get very uncomfortable to get back what we had'

      'I'm not so unconscious to life as I was before'

      'That's life-changing for me'

    • The More You Put Into Life, The More You Get Out - with Dean Kelly
      This week, Ellie talks to serial entrepreneur and recruitment specialist, Dean Kelly, who reached the level of multi-millionaire before the age of 30, became CEO of a nine-figure PLC, and who has spent his career in acquisitions and advisory roles for CEOs and government officials.
      Dean discusses his beginnings in business, why aspirations can help to push us further, the importance of setting goals and how they helped his own journey, and how you can always get more out of life if you work hard for it.
      KEY TAKEAWAYS
      We never truly know where life will take us when we are in our youth. We try many things until we find the path that fits the fire within us.
      Aspiration is not a bad thing. Looking at the achievements and gains of others pushes us to want to do better and to reach those heights for ourselves.
      The ones who make it are the ones who understand that the more you put into life, the more you get out. they are the ones who have a real fire in their belly, and who aren't afraid to work hard.
      We can level the world of recruitment by offering a more balanced and weighted approach to hiring that removes the stigmas surrounding seats of learning and takes skills into account, instead of background.
      BEST MOMENTS
      'The way I spoke to compared to the way they spoke was very different...'
      'Sometimes in life you have to pivot. You realise that you're going down the wrong avenue and that you're somebody different'
      'The more you put in the more you get out'
      'I'm on a mission to make recruitment fair'

    • How To Build An 8-Figure Property Portfolio - with Sarah McDermott
      Ellie is joined by Sarah McDermott, who along with her husband, has in three short years built an eight-figure property portfolio, specialising in high-end exquisite, luxury serviced accommodation.
      Sarah joins Ellie to discuss her incredible success story, the power of networks and how they can accelerate your investing journey, and why investing in yourself is the key to financial freedom.
      KEY TAKEAWAYS
      Life is sometimes about taking risks. Many believe that when our backs are against the wall we should play it safe, but these are the times that test us, and when we realise what we're capable of.
      When we create a network, we empower our reach. Building trust among others is the gateway to opportunity. Our network is our net worth.
      The key to finding your niche is to identify the area not being served by others and filling that need. For Sarah, taking her property to the next level has proved fruitful as she is serving a very high-end need.
      In the beginning of our journey, we often feel the need to take on more and more in order to secure an income. But this can lead to overwhelm. Know your limits and stick to them.
      BEST MOMENTS
      'Sometimes people's success speaks so loudly that you can't ignore them'
      'It was an adventure and we met so many people that we've stuck with'
      'If you go to outstanding, then the difference you can command is outstanding'
      'Don't try to do too much at once. It's not very clever'

    • Build Your Assets And Secure Your Future - with Ken Mack
      Ellie is in discussion with serial entrepreneur, Ken Mack - a man who has raised himself up from humble beginnings to become a global leader in mergers and acquisitions.
      Ken talks about what's driven him to do better all his life, what has drawn him to the world of acquisitions, why assets value so much, and why he has chosen to raise others up through knowledge and mind-set.
      KEY TAKEAWAYS
      We use the gifts and skills we have to help ourselves, but there comes a point in all our lives, when we must give back and use our talents to raise others up.
      Many think that the traditional pension route provides for our futures, when in fact we should be looking to build assets that will provide for life.
      In life, and in business, there are ups and downs. The true success is found by those who develop the resilience to pick themselves back up after a setback and use what they've learned in order to overcome.
      Those in power have spent much time in developing ways of influencing and controlling. They play upon our insecurities and condition us not to question the factors that affect our life.
      BEST MOMENTS
      'I went on a mission to help other people'
      'I wasn't handed anything in life so I always had to make my own money'
      'I got most enjoyment out of innovating, creating things, and being part of a deal'
      'I created a coaching programme so that I can give back to people what I never had'

        • Power Of Property: Focus On What You Can Control - with Gavin Gallagher

          Gavin Gallagher is someone who's truly embraced the power of property in order to create the life he's always wanted. Having once created a portfolio containing over £65m of assets, Gavin has since overcome challenge upon challenge, and rebuilt entirely.

          There are few people more well-versed in the ways that property can change a life, and he's here with Ellie this week on the Power Of Property podcast, to tell you how you can change yours.

          KEY TAKEAWAYS

          • When the incentives are strong enough, then it is easy to keep pushing forward with the goals we have, and not be distracted by other factors.
          • We must always keep our reason for doing this, front and centre. It's easy to lose your grip on the "why" behind your investing journey.
          • There is always a way back, even from the depths of failure. We must take the lessons we have learned and adjust our mind-set in order to battle our way back to the top.
          • It's easy to become sidetracked and overwhelmed, especially when we are in a place of desperation. In these moments, we must focus only upon the things we can control, and take each win incrementally.
          • BEST MOMENTS

            'I wanted to be in a business that built something'

            'It was like a house of cards that came down'

            This week, Ellie is on a mission with fellow female powerhouse, property investor, mentor and advisor, Jeanette Linfoot, the inspiring host and creator of the Brave, Bold and Brilliant podcast.
            Jeannette joins Ellie to discuss the fascinating story that has brought her here, to the pinnacle of success, how she deals with impostor syndrome, why your perception matters so much in business, and the key to successful business partnerships.
            KEY TAKEAWAYS
            It doesn't matter what your background is. If you believe enough, and dedicate yourself to putting in the work required, you can place yourself in any industry or sector, despite the daunting prospect of "impostor syndrome".
            Often, our perception of what an environment will be like can colour the effect that it actually has. If we approach each situation hopefully and with positivity, then this doubt can be overcome.
            There are always natural crossroads and junctions in life, at which we are given pause to think about where we have come from, and evaluate the next steps, and the direction in which they take us.
            The best partnerships are often the ones built upon opposing skill sets. This allows the combined partnership tackle a far greater set of challenges.
            BEST MOMENTS
            'Half of those barriers were barriers I put in my own mind'
            'If you walk into a room thinking there's going to be a problem, then there probably will be'
            'I think we've lasted this long because we are so different!'

          • Power Of Property: Ethical Property Investment - with Frank Flegg

            In this new edition of 'The Power of Property', Ellie talks to Frank Flegg, the founder of Ethical Property Partners. Frank is an entrepreneur and property investor, who founded Ethical Property Partners with the aim of empowering others to build their own routes to financial freedom through property, and who has used his position to do immeasurable good around the world as a result.

            Frank discusses the roads that have led him to financial independence, the many highs experienced on his way to success, why our personal values matter so much, and how the true power of property manifests itself when we use it to effect real positive change.

            KEY TAKEAWAYS

            • Ambition often counts for more than traditional education when it comes to property investment. If we have the will to succeed we are far more likely to do so.
            • If we choose to follow the examples of others, then we would do well to follow those who subscribe to continuous improvement and development - those who wish to be better each day.
            • If we hold and embrace our humane values at the forefront, then our business success manifests itself in many surprising ways.
            • Many wish to help others in need, but are not in the position to do so. If we can empower those people to be financially free, then they can pass this empowerment on to those in need.
            • BEST MOMENTS
