Self Awareness Leads To Self Improvement - with James Burtt

On a Mission Podcast

11/26/21 • 73 min

This week, Ellie is joined by audio entrepreneur and branding strategist, performance coach and iTunes Top 50 podcaster, James Burtt.

James talks about his fascinating journey through a musical career and into business, why honesty matters when it comes to putting your message out into the world, the wisdom he's found in the most unlikely places, and why we should always be ready when opportunity arrives.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Many people document their wins, but life isn't always about constant victories. Some days you are faced with challenges, and talking about these can prove invaluable to others.
Opportunities arise from the most unlikely of places at times. We must never remain closed off to chances to do things differently as the journey can lead to some incredible new places.
In business and life, it can be challenging when our partners do not share or understand our visions and goals, as it can produce a friction.
When we find ourselves in low places, it is not necessary to have all the answers. All we need to do is make sure we're putting one foot in front of the other and moving forward in some small way.

BEST MOMENTS

'What I'm committed to doing is finding what's in it for someone else'

'The first step towards self-improvement is being self-aware'

'It's better to know than to not know'

'Inner grit is a refusal inside you to give up and accept that that is your reality'

How I Became a Millionaire At 23 - with Lauren Tickner

On a Mission Podcast

05/15/22 • 64 min

Lauren Tickner is unquestionably a woman on a mission. What started as a side hustle as an online fitness coach when she was only 17 years old became a 7-figure business by the age of 21! 🤯

A Forbes Top 10 Entrepreneur, a London Stock Exchange "Marketing Genius”, Lauren has risen rapidly to become one of the UK’s most successful and respected entrepreneurs in the online space, and I want to know how!

In this interview, Lauren shares so much wisdom with every word she speaks; whether you're a business owner, aspiring entrepreneur, or just want to know how to maximise yourself in the workplace, this episode is a MUST!

KEY TAKEAWAYS

In today's world we are conditioned that being ultra-thin and ultra-fit are the only acceptable ways to live. This skewed version of the world is causing irreparable harm to young people and their view of what life should look like.
The biggest breakthroughs in self-development come in the aftermath of withstanding pressure. Lessons are hard, sometimes, but the rewards are great.
If something doesn't feel right in our lives, then there's a good chance that our instincts are trying to steer us away from unhappiness. Listen to what the voice is saying and act accordingly.
When COVIS struck, it sent a shockwave through the business world as many thought it would change for the worse. In fact, the opposite was true. True entrepreneurs were forced to think outside of the box and rush their business plans towards the future.

BEST MOMENTS

'I don't think that I would've had so much empathy for people who have been through things if I hadn't been through a lot of that myself'

'Only through having many different experiences are you able to piece things together in way that will give you better thoughts and ideas that will empower you'

'A lot can change when you focus intensely'

'The process works, but I am too impulsive to stick to it'

Being The Best Begins With Knowing Yourself Better - with Mike Zeller

On a Mission Podcast

11/15/21 • 48 min

This week, I’m On a Mission with Mike Zeller, a serial entrepreneur whose businesses have achieved over $300 million in revenue, a joint venture partner in over twenty businesses, an author, coach, and mentor to many high performing entrepreneurs around the world.

Mike talks about the highs and lows of his journey, in which he has lost it all and built it all back once more, his personal mission is to help a million people figure out their own genius, and how by knowing ourselves better we can become the best leaders in the world.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

We all have genius in side of us, but to bring it out takes special care, and less of a reliance on the system, such as formal education and society in general, which only helps the few to ascend.
True power begins inside of us. Until we know ourselves better, we cannot hope to know the world around us. The best leaders invest in knowing themselves better on a day to day basis.
We cannot hope to reach our goals if we spend our entire lives in emulating others. We need to be ourselves at all times, for that is the only way to carve out our own unique path in life.
We restore and nourish our creative sides by breaking the patterns from time to time - by disrupting the routines and searching for ways to fill the creative banks inside us.

BEST MOMENTS

'My mission to help a million people figure out their genius'

'To know thyself is the beginning of all wisdom'

'Be yourself, everybody else is taken'

'We have an obligation to find that space for creativity, for that space of genius'

Mastering Your Mind-Set - with Ryan Pinnick

On a Mission Podcast

07/22/21 • 81 min

In a special bonus episode, Ellie talks to Ryan Pinnick - the master of mind-set - a multiple seven-figure entrepreneur, speaker and mentor, specialising in empowering people to master life and business using superconsciousness.

Ryan talks about his background, and why inclusivity and diversity matter so much. He also discusses the importance of looking for the positives in every challenge we face, and how awareness can allow us take advantage of opportunities.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Even the toughest challenges in life can provide useful lessons later. Ryan's own background, one of discrimination and exclusion trained him to deal with trauma and adversity.
We're never doomed because of where we come from in life. We can always rise above challenge and conquer our weaknesses in order to find victory.
True mastery of life is about owning your fears and negatives, whatever shape they may take. Only be confronting and defeating them can we gain full control and mastery over ourselves.
Attracting opportunities is not enough. We must also develop the awareness to know when to take advantage of those opportunities.

BEST MOMENTS

'It trained me to deal with trauma. It trained me to deal with adversity'

'The work I teach is based on a solid philosophy'

'It doesn't matter what cards you're dealt - you can always win the game'

'Real mastery is about owning your fears'

My Health, My Responsibility. Chewing The Fat - with Udo Erasmus

On a Mission Podcast

01/16/23 • 57 min

Udo Erasmus is a legendary health and wellness pioneer, acclaimed author and extensive educator who works alongside Tony Robbins and Deepak Chopra to spread the message about the good fats that are essential for a healthy life.

Udo, the founder of the global Healthy Fats Movement, developed the machinery to create FLAX OIL, used by millions of people worldwide, but what he shared in this interview about how we consume oils will shock you to the core.

Born as a child of war, Udo had a challenging start in life as he fled his war-torn country only to be abandoned on the roadside by his own Mother in a tragic tale of survival. Having seen the worst of mankind at an early age, Udo’s adversity helped him to discover his purpose in life from being a six-year-old child, and now he’s on a mission to share his message of hope.

It's an inspiring, empowering episode and one of the most important in terms of positivity and practical methodologies for ensuring that even individually, we can do our part to change the world we live in.

BEST MOMENTS

'There's no reason why eight billion people can't live on this planet, helping each other'

'You and life are a majority'

From Stock Broker to Drug Trafficker - with Shaun Attwood

On a Mission Podcast

10/15/23 • 99 min

The mind-blowing and often hilarious story of a young lad from Widnes and his transition from the stocks trade to the drugs trade, rubbing shoulders with Mexican cartels, the mafia, and neo- within one of the most challenging prisons in the United States?

This is the journey that Shaun Attwood ended up on as he rose to become an ecstasy kingpin with a substantial drug trafficking empire in Arizona. Shaun shares stories of how he went from being a reportable trader to wild parties, encounters with some of the world’s most dangerous individuals, and the challenges he faced along the way.

Facing a sentence of up to 200 years, Shaun was locked up alongside some of the most intimidating inmates imaginable. Somehow, through strategic alliances, quick thinking, and his distinctive English accent, Shaun emerged on the other side with a remarkable story to share, and it’s one you won’t want to miss.

BEST MOMENTS

"I nearly got shot. They're the local crack dealers. I'm letting them stay in mine. I'm staying at theirs over the street."

"I've done TED talks and one of them is like what facing 200 years taught me about happiness and I've learned that happiness is in your heart."

"I've had pushback from various reasons. The first lot of pushback were death threats."

"He accused my guy of stolen valour because this guy was an ex-Vietnam vet and a biker."

The Mind-Blowing Future Of Crypto - with 8-Bit Alex

On a Mission Podcast

12/09/22 • 65 min

I’m super excited to welcome back crypto legend Alex Van Hulle, the Chief Technology Officer at Redlight Finance.

With confidence in cryptocurrency at an all-time low, we talk about the current opportunities and challenges within the market – including what current crypto market volatility means for the future.

Redlight have revolutionised the digital landscape with their gasless blockchain and in this episode, we go deep into why that’s something that we should ALL be paying attention to.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Traditional blockchains charge "gas" in order to send your transactions through. This was necessary because of network congestions. With Alex's revolutionary new creation, the gas has been eliminated, meaning that buying and selling does not incur a charge.
A closed-source blockchain, especially those for private companies, it's incredibly secure. It is protected by unprecedented cryptographic measures, and therefore the only risk enters when you add in the human factor.
People focus far too much on small negative setbacks in the crypto space, when they should be celebrating the amazing ways in which it is helping our society to function in a better way.
Staking liquidity involves pairing two coins together and add them to a pool so that people may trade against them. This means that you are now double-staking. You're earning by adding to the liquidity.

BEST MOMENTS

'It was like a rocket ship, it just took off'

'With all the stuff that's going wrong in crypto, it's very hard to highlight what's going right'

'From the ashes rise the best things'

'We could literally replace every payment processing solution that utilises fee app currency, with gas-less blockchain'

Single Amputee, Lee Spencer, Defines All The Odds To Become A World Record Holder

On a Mission Podcast

11/27/23 • 94 min

In this week's episode of the On a Mission podcast, get ready to be inspired as we unravel the gripping journey of Lee Spencer, a man born in Dagenham, refined in the fires of The Royal Marines, and tested by a fate that few could imagine.

A Royal Marine with 24 years of service, Lee navigated three operational tours in Afghanistan unscathed. Now, fast forward to a roadside in Surrey where Lee's life takes an abrupt turn. A crash, an engine block, and the loss of his right leg – a stark reminder that life's curveballs don't discriminate.

But this isn't just a tale of tragedy; it's a saga of resilience. In the aftermath, Lee's Marine instincts kick in, turning a chaotic scene into a battle for survival. Imagine the grit it takes to instruct bystanders while your own life hangs in the balance. A medically induced coma, weeks in the hospital, and a grueling rehabilitation journey follow, painting a vivid canvas of pain, recovery, and an uncertain future.

Amidst the struggle, Lee's spirit refuses to be broken. Nominated for the Pride of Britain award in 2014, he sets sail on a new horizon in 2015. Joining the Row2Recovery team, Lee embarks on a monumental row across the Atlantic – 3,000 miles, four veterans, and only three legs between them. The outcome? A record-breaking triumph that etches their names in history as the world's first physically disabled crew of four to conquer an ocean.

But Lee's journey doesn't end there. In a solo and unsupported venture, he defies the odds again, rowing from mainland Europe to mainland South America. Four Guinness World Records later, Lee Spencer, The Rowing Marine, stands as a living testament to the sheer force of human resilience.

In this On a Mission podcast episode, be prepared for a rollercoaster of emotions – the pain, the triumphs, and the unfiltered reality of a man who turned adversity into a relentless pursuit of purpose. Lee's story is not just his own; it's a mirror reflecting the indomitable spirit within us all. This is an episode that goes beyond inspiration; it's a raw and real testament to the strength that resides in the human soul.
