ABCPL#13 - M for Moving On (ft. Donald F White)

Does your business have a succession plan or a cessation plan?
Has your company been set up for your eventual exit so that your clients don't leave once you walk out the door?
Are you building a business that can run without you? And are you building a life that can run without your business?
Join me as I sit down with Donald F White--a retired top financial advisor--who recently completed a successful succession plan in his business. So successful, that the business has grown exponentially since his exit. This became the subject of...
ABCPL#12 - L for Legacy (ft. Ron Kaufman)

In an ever changing world that is filled with uncertainty and challenges, how are we supposed to act? What does it mean to be a "good person" in an era of catastrophes, conflicts, and confusion? Is life really all about profits, status, achievements, clicks and likes, etc? How does all of that hold up when faced with a future that is unknown?
Perhaps, in this time of existential crisis, we are asking the wrong foundational question. Perhaps the way forward is not found in asking "What is a human being," but rather, "what is being h...
ABCPL#11 - K for Kindness (ft. Barbara Vercruysse)

When you encounter someone who is known as a "global kindness advocate," what kind of person do you expect them to be?
Probably not someone who has run their own business, holds a senior position at a global industry-leading company, and who is held in esteem as the #1 mental health thought leader in the world, right?
But that's exactly who Barbara Vercruysse is.
And it's all because of kindness.
Kindness has got a bad rep in the corporate world. We tend to associate kindness with "weakness." However, kindness is not "niceness" or...
ABCPL#10 - J for the Journey (ft. Coach Jim Johnson)

Ready for a crazy stat? Around 90% of businesses fail within their first five years! But get this: the 10% that dodge the failure bullet aren't the big spenders or the ones with massive resources. Rather, they are the ones that have a plan for long term success. That's because they understand that success--whether in life or in business--is more of a marathon than a sprint. The real winners aren't the ones chasing quick wins; they're the ones in it for the long haul. They're the ones laying down a solid foundation, playing the strategic game, and staying tough when things...

ABCPL BONUS Episode = Reflecting on 2022

So....here comes the long overdue podcast! When I sat down to record this, I had originally thought of taking some time to reflect on the year gone by and to share some news and and lessons from it, as well as thoughts and goals for 2023. This video ended up being all that, plus a whole lot more--including thoughts on balding, co-dependent coaching relationships, health fads, the pressures of unrealistic ideals, how to have difficult conversations with your loved ones, etc. Give it a listen and let me know your thoughts!
ABCPL#8 - H for Happiness (ft. Mel Leow)

Happiness...what does this word mean? What is it about the concept of happiness that makes us want to devote our whole life to finding it? And, if it is so important, why do so few people feel genuinely happy? Today on the podcast, I interview a good friend of mine--Mel Leow. Join us as we talk through his latest book--Engage--and find out how we can redefine and rediscover happiness for ourselves.

ABCPL #06 - F for Facing Fears

Studies have shown that there are two types of regret: action regret and inaction regret. While action regrets are most prevalent in the short term, inaction regrets increase exponentially as the years go on. So much so, that the most common deathbed statement is this: "If I only had." How can we avoid this becoming our final words? How can we face our fears, take calculative risks, and turn challenges into our good? In this exclusive recording of a webinar for students of the Catalyst Apprentice Program in Nigeria, Kenya, and Zimbabwe (Done in April 2019), I discuss just that.
