Win the Day

"The only thing we never get enough of is love; and the only thing we never give enough of is love." — Henry Miller

Welcome to our final episode of 2023!

If you want the most impactful and memorable moments from the podcast throughout the year, check out Episode 166.

This is the first of two 'from the vault' episodes we'll be publishing during the holiday season; the second will be out on 9th January. In fact, there's no better episode from the vault than the one we're bringing you today with John Gray.

John is the author of mega-bestseller, Men Are from Mars, Women Are from Venus, which catapulted him to being recognized as the leading relationship expert in the world. It also spawned a book series that has sold over 50 million copies in 50 different languages in 150 different countries.

Our episode quickly became the most popular episode ever recorded of the Win the Day podcast. The full-length video version has more than 90K views on YouTube and is still growing fast.

John says some often uncomfortable things, but they’re so important to not only understand ourselves but the people we’ve committed our lives to.

There’s no better episode to bring from the vault than this one.

In this episode:

Let’s WIN THE DAY with Dr. John Gray!

Onward and upward always,

James

“There is no greater agony than bearing an untold story inside you.” — Maya Angelou

What if you had the most incredible product or idea, but didn’t know how to communicate it? 🤔

It’s an all too familiar story – and one of the biggest things holding people back from the connection, opportunity, and success they want.

Make no mistake – your ability to communicate is directly correlated to the results you get.

So, to help you communicate like a pro, we’ve got one of the world’s leading communication experts, Matt Abrahams, joining us in today’s episode...

Matt is a Stanford professor, award-winning podcaster, and communication consultant. He has helped numerous presenters prepare for high-stakes talks, including IPO roadshows, Nobel Prize award presentations, and appearances at TED and the World Economic Forum.

His book Speaking Up without Freaking Out: 50 Techniques for Confident and Compelling Presenting has helped a wide audience manage speaking anxiety and present more confidently and authentically. His new book Think Faster, Talk Smarter: How to Speak Successfully When You’re Put On the Spot has just been released.

“The fear of death follows from the fear of life. A man who lives fully is prepared to die at any time.” — Mark Twain

Dr. Mark Goulston is a leading psychiatrist and communication expert. His mega-bestseller, Just Listen, is regarded as the world's #1 book on listening.

Among his extensive list of professional achievements, Dr. Goulston has been a hostage negotiation trainer for the FBI; a consultant for renowned companies (including Goldman Sachs, Merrill Lynch, and Disney); a contributor to the Harvard Business Review; and author of 9 books that have been translated into 28 languages.

Since we first met in Episode 109, Dr. Goulston has become a close friend and mentor of mine. He's exceptionally good at what he does and I look forward to any opportunity we get to catch up.

Recently, Dr. Goulston was given some unexpected news that made him rethink everything he's doing in his life. I asked if he'd be up for a conversation on the podcast so we could talk about that openly and help others who might be in a similar situation...

Like he has done with every request I've asked of him, he graciously agreed.

"If opportunity doesn't knock, build a door." – Milton Berle

Learning how to manufacture opportunity when you need it is one of the most important skills you can develop. And today's guest, Lauren Karan, has become an expert at building doors...

Growing up, Lauren had one dream – to be a professional singer. At 19 years old, Lauren got her first shot at the big time, auditioning for the hit TV show X Factor.

After making it through to the final stage, the aspiring singer fell victim to the pressure and spectacle of the occasion – a moment that crushed her confidence and caused her to rethink everything she wanted out of life.

But the devastating failure created space for a new opportunity, when Lauren landed her first role in the recruitment industry. With a natural talent for problem solving, relationships, and business, it was a slam dunk.

Today, Lauren is founder and director of Karan & Co, Australia’s most disruptive recruitment agency, where she transforms companies that want to find – and retain – the best people.

Lauren’s family focus allows her to truly partner with her clients who recognize that caring more about people is what unlocks the real profitability and goodwill of a business.

"Stop spending your time; start investing your time." — Al Duncan

Welcome to Win the Day Wednesday!

With every second of energy you expend, you should be considering the investment you're making and what return you want to receive.

For example, if you invest your time at the gym or with a fitness trainer, you'll receive a return of health, energy, and strength. If you invest your money with a financial adviser, you'll receive a return of wealth, prosperity, and freedom.

Good investments, over the long-term, provide exponential reward.

In today's minisode, we're going to talk about the difference between saving and investing time, and how you can start generating big results through a simple shift in thinking...

Onward and upward always,

James
