ABOUT THE GUEST
Football has been a way of life for Steve, for as long as he can remember – playing it, writing about it, and now commentating on it.
Despite failing to make a career out of the professional game, it’s presented him with some amazing experiences and opportunities along the way.
Aptly, the game of life is more important to him than football, and it’s one which anybody can win, with the right perspective.
Steve is forever indebted to his parents – both of whom are Irish immigrants – for the values they’ve instilled in him. He’s proud to carry their DNA, and treats everyone he meets with respect, and without prejudice.
He lives a simple, uncomplicated life, which has served him well thus far.

ABOUT THE HOST
One thing that’s never been attached to Paul is the label ‘normal’ – something he is totally aware of. He definitely subscribes to being one of those mentioned the iconic ‘Think Different’ Apple commercial narrated by Steve Jobs in 1977:
“Here's to the crazy ones, the misfits, the rebels, the troublemakers, the round pegs in the square holes... the ones who see things differently -- they're not fond of rules. You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify or vilify them, but the only thing you can't do is ignore them because they change things... they push the human race forward, and while some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius, because the ones who are crazy enough to think that they can change the world, are the ones who do!”
Paul has a long and distinguished history of coaching & mentoring – particularly focusing on helping people make the transition from pain to purpose; a journey he has made himself, from the depths of a deep dark existence, to now living a life of happiness and prosperity.
Through this Mastering The Game Of Life podcast, and books he has been involved in – including being a best-selling co-author – Paul also helps others to get their own inspirational messages and stories out into the world; as well as offering support to many charitable organisations, in their development & fund-raising.

ABOUT THE GUEST
What Alison enjoyed most throughout her 25 years in the corporate world, was being able to take what I learned and sharing it with others to solve problems; to bring about positive outcomes that helped companies succeed and grow. It was this desire to serve that led her to coaching. She craved the interaction with the type of high performers she’d known in both tech and her years as a sports competitor. Dare2Be was formed.
In her life, Alison has experienced what many of her clients are going through -- the need to complete her journey on her own terms, holding true to her values, testing herself to see if she’s up to a new challenge and leaving a positive legacy. Now her mission is to coach others through the same turning points she experienced, and though we’re all different, many of our basic needs are the same: support, encouragement, validation. We need to be inspired to Dare2Be.
