Healthy wanting, is it possible to be wanting something in such a way that it drives you forward towards success? For many wanting is about filling a void that cannot be filled from the outside.
On this podcast we discover the problem with over wanted culture. It is growth for the sake of growth. How could we look at the driver of progress in a more positive way so it’s connected with who we are?
Society and business has turned into desires for products in the search for ever greater profit. It becomes growth for the sake of growth. Our politicians and media promise unlimited growth as a means of prosperity for all.
But it can put us on the treadmill. There have been more than enough podcast guests on the growth treadmill looking for more and more and finding themselves burned out in the process.
What if it was possible to reconnect yourself with your values and build your wants and desires from there?
Our conversation is about using your value systems accordingly, and using it in a healthy way to of fuel your desires.

We are all living in the story; it is what we do. I talk a lot about the stories and narratives that make up our lives. I’ve realised this is about living in the story of the outcome.
On this show, we explore how our storytelling abilities can lead us to our goals or take us to that place of despair. We have to manage our storytelling to get what we want.
Most of the time, our actions at any moment are relative to the outcome we hold as a vision. But we are not conscious that we are doing it.
Here is me Living in the story
I love to cook for myself, my family, and my friends. When I begin the meal plan, I consider what the other people eating will enjoy and how they might react to the presentation of that food. I imagine them enjoying it.
Last Monday I bought a new pair of running shoes, they were a gift for my birthday and are possibly the most expensive shoes I have ever bought. As I tested them in the shop, I imagined how it would feel to run a race, going fast and long while wearing these shoes.
I got to test them on Saturday at the Forres Highland Games 10K, and they did not feel how I imagined they would. They did live up to my expectation.
That is the point we are always living in the outcome of the story we have created. Now that ability to tell ourselves a story and believe it is a powerful tool for getting the life we want. As long as it is well managed.
Focus on the bad stuff, which can also be a heavyweight in delivering the life we do not want because replaying and believing a lousy story will not lift the heart or fill the soul with joy.
Join me on the show and discover how you might use your stories to get what you want.

Let’s talk about transitions and assimilation, that is the integration of all that we are and bringing it to the world as a contribution.
In the podcast we are looking at transition and assimilation as part of our right of passage. The show is about how the move from 50s in to my 60s has been more than a birthday.
We return briefly to my ultra marathon experience and what I have leant from that journey.
I can do hard things, and the pain passes and there is much more
There is also the ritual I used to pass from 59 to 60 years old. How I ran thought the time of my birth 60 years back.
A week of Transitions and Assimilation
In truth I have been preparing for this turning 60 as a transition. I’ve been talking about it for a while in my podcast and in someone my posts. Some of that conversation is ongoing, as my wife is currently in training to become an interfaith minister. Our conversations often revolve around transitions and connecting with all that is that’s probably led me to this place.
In the first world, we have lost touch with what it means to pass from one stage to the next. To honour and celebrate that transition. In the modern world we have lost touch with so much that makes living life expansive.
Most people see their success or contribution to the world as part of their career. There is so much focus on this idea that the career is where you shine.
Ultimately this is about learning to shine all of the time. It is about feeling confident in your skin and body. And seeing that your strengths and weaknesses are an equal part of who you are
There are some things where I am crap. I’ve never been particularly organised, I am dyslexic on many levels and have a terrible memory for names. There are more…
But I own those things. I don’t let my dyslexia stop me writing or publishing on social media. If there are errors and things that are wrong in something and someone doesn’t like it well that’s their problem not mine. And that is OK. That is not to say those errors don’t hurt becasue they do.
How Does My Journey Help You?
Remember as I say this all the time it’s your story. It has to be written, we have to create our own story. Mine is about the podcast. It is about the expansion of me and the expansion of people around me, it’s about how do we live a good life. What are the tools required for that. How can I help people find those tools and move forward. This is what it’s about for me, that is the exciting part of who I am and where I am at this time.
I will embrace the fear and keep looking to expand through it.
What would be a right of passage for you at your age and stage?
I have said before, “The Prize” is on the other side.
So I urge you to seek out an enduring adventure and push against something that offers resistance. Something that makes you grow and feels like an achievement, it does not need to be a full-on physical challenge.
I am biased, as I think something enduringly physical is hard to beat.
But there are other options. My wife for example is physically challenged for her the challenge is about writing and making it public.
I believe she is very good check out the website https://simplibee.uk/ it is beautful.

Do you choose your challenge or let life throw them at you? The point is life throws things at us, it’s not meant to be a journey a unicorns and roses there are meant to be ups and downs a life of colour.
This Saturday, at 11 am, I started running in a 100-mile team race, it took us 18 hours I and I ran 28 miles with a few big hills. I thought it would be great, the truth was mixed but still great.
On this show we are looking at how the media is driving the message of fear and how you can build your resilience to rise above it all. Because there is a certain power in taking charge and choosing the challenge.
We had 2 four-person teams and our job was to run 100 miles over a maximum of 24 hours, Running in pairs one from each team, it was about pacing each other and navigation. Th course was mixed terrain and easy to get lost.
I have to say it was brutal I covered 28 miles over the 18 hours it took to complete the course, I got home at 5.30 am this morning made a bacon roll and went to bed.
I have been a zombie all day and it is now late afternoon and I wanted to get this podcast out my six which may not happen.
What did I learn from the experience?
I can do hard things, and the pain passes
I put my needs first and took care of my body, I was clear with my teammate about what I needed. While I did the same for them.
Everyone reacts differently to challenges and when supported people are amazing.
So how can you bring the power of challenge into your life?

We live in a world of polarity and disagreement. I wonder if it has always been there, and I just did not notice or has the world become more divided?
In this show, I explore my surprise to meet up with some old friends who now hold some very strong opposing views to my own.
What is your default in this situation, right them off or build a bridge?
This show is about the importance of building bridges and recognising that there is more that unites us than we realise.

The world is a troubled place, everywhere I look I can see polarity. Our print and TV, social media and politics are out to point fingers and create separation.
My bigger point is we do not have time for separation. Meeting my Massive Transformative Purpose (MTP) is about making the world a better place. That will not happen with division and no conversation.
So why are we so polarised and what makes these beliefs so strong that people will go out on a limb and say black is white just to maintain the story?
Polarity and disagreement are about belief in a story. It is fierce because the idea must be defended or it becomes a house of cards problem.

Finding your MTP, Massive transformational purpose. What is it, and do you need it? The MPT has become popular with companies driven to create change. It is said to be the driving cause of that change.
This shortcast explores the MTP and how you might create one for you or your business.
So an MTP is a statement of intention, a change you want to see happen; it’s also a statement that inspires.
Life Passion and Business: Leading the World to a better place.
Tedx: Ideas worth spreading.
Tesla: To accelerate the world’s transition to sustainable energy.
These sound inspirational, but it is not a question of sitting around with a brand specialist and a copywriter to develop a flashy phrase.
It is a combination of passion, values, emotions and meaning. From the corporate perspective, these would be the founder’s vision, inspiration and passion for solving a particular problem.
The MTP for Life passion and business was born from my journey with the show. Once I had healed myself, I wanted to share that knowledge.
In this show we offer ideas to explore your MTP

Where is your assumptions and bias? To be fare it is a trick question because we all have them. We all have a natural bias, and it’s almost impossible to get ride of them unless we make a conscious effort to be become aware.
We live in a world of bias Media, Political and Culture all have inherrant bias, the currents trend of AI have been found to have a racial bias
In this show we explore my first world problem and how cognitive bias has made it worse. How 90% of the biggest projects fail in terms of cost and delivery due to leadership bias.
It is a big subject and I will let you in to a little secret, it is all related to beliefs, story and how our brains like to work with the maxinium of efficiency.
Assumption and Bias is a serious issue and thankfully there is an awareness in the world, hence we have regulation for sex and race descrinination. But that does not stop it happening.
The bigger issue is you, your decision making and the need to be right or the smartest person in the room. I am with you there, we all like to be right.
I regularly make biased decisions, we all do while shopping for food in the supermarket. That is brand loyalty for you.
But what about those big expansion plans for the business or that new operation are you making assumption about.
In this show we offer ideas to test your bias, drill down and see where they came from.

Words for a good life. The power of words to move us should never be underestimated. I finally sat down with my wife to plan my funeral this week, and wow, what an adventure. Talking this through with my wife was strangle liberating. I have never felt so loved.
The show is not about my funeral but my relationship with a piece of text I first discovered in my late 20s. Do you have a special poem or piece of writing that moves you?
Ok to put the record straight I have no intention of shuffling off just yet, but preparation is everything and leaving a document for my family to follow does give them something to use or build on once I have passed.
A bit if context my wife is training to be an interfaith minister and she had to complete a funeral assignment, and it was decided with my agreement that I would be a good candidate for her.
Personally I think It made it a more challenging exercise, in our conversation we looked at the practical process or getting rid of my body. We have found a beautiful green burial ground. Burning my body will release far too much carbon.
The moving part of the exercise was music and words.
I suddenly remembered. Desiderata
I discovered it in my late 20s and rereading it made me realise that I have been on a mission of life, Passion and business for over 30 years. This peace speaks to me it is almost my 10 commandants for life.
The full text is below.
Words for a Good Life
On the show, we explore
How connecting through text like this is so powerful.
How life is in 3 acts
There is also some news and a free offer
It will be of interest for those with business interests. It is near the end if your want to skip through.
Here is the link to Jane's show
https://lifepassionandbusiness.com/jane-duncan-roger-before-i-go/
Desiderata:
This is the original text from the book where Desiderata was first published.
Go placidly amid the noise and the haste, and remember what peace there may be in silence. As far as possible, without surrender, be on good terms with all persons.
Speak your truth quietly and clearly; and listen to others, even to the dull and the ignorant; they too have their story.
Avoid loud and aggressive persons; they are vexatious to the spirit. If you compare yourself with others, you may become vain or bitter, for always there will be greater and lesser persons than yourself.
Enjoy your achievements as well as your plans. Keep interested in your own career, however humble; it is a real possession in the changing fortunes of time.
Exercise caution in your business affairs, for the world is full of trickery. But let this not blind you to what virtue there is; many persons strive for high ideals, and everywhere life is full of heroism.
Be yourself. Especially do not feign affection. Neither be cynical about love; for in the face of all aridity and disenchantment, it is as perennial as the grass.
Take kindly the counsel of the years, gracefully surrendering the things of youth.
Nurture strength of spirit to shield you in sudden misfortune. But do not distress yourself with dark imaginings. Many fears are born of fatigue and loneliness.
Beyond a wholesome discipline, be gentle with yourself. You are a child of the universe no less than the trees and the stars; you have a right to be here.
And whether or not it is clear to you, no doubt the universe is unfolding as it should. Therefore be at peace with God, whatever you conceive Him to be. And whatever your labors and aspirations, in the noisy confusion of life, keep peace in your soul. With all its sham, drudgery and broken dreams, it is still a beautiful world. Be cheerful. Strive to be happy.

Is it possible to find the meaning of life, or is that life a grail quest? Many philosophers have wrangled over this question, and millions of words have been written. But does any of it matter?
In the show, I am exploring this question of the meaning, how it changed my life and how it could change yours.
Many people travel life’s journey without consideration for the question and live perfectly happily. I suspect they have found meaning but never needed to define it, and they just live it.
Society has shifted in the last 70 years with the passing of deference and the significance of organised religion. In the UK, church membership and participation are at an all-time low. In the past, the church offered an answer to our quest for meaning.
Without the framework of the church and its community, people find themselves searching for something else.
Simon Sinek said to start with Why
He was struggling with life and went on a journey before to make sense of his path, and I did the same with the podcast. So after 400-plus podcast conversations, I have been privileged to explore that question and received possibly an equal number of different answers.
So here is the simple answer
There is no meaning to life other than the meaning you choose to give it.
That statement contains both freedom and a curse. In this show, I reveal the formula for finding meaning in your life and why it can be difficult to find or live with.

What happens when the story meets reality? Because we can believe whatever we want, but there are times when the vision and the picture do not align.
I had a very visceral example of that on Saturday.
If you have been following me for a while, you know that I have a passion for running. It gives some meaning to my life because, when I run it brings my mind and my body together in one place operating in harmony.
So I’ve been training to run my fastest ever 10K, if you saw my socials or you’re on my list, you’d have heard the story about how I have an unofficial time and what to beat it will and official time.
I did first 10K was back in 2018 at 51:55, I did and unofficial race in 2021 at 48:51 and last year I did a local race at 50:01
Now father time is working against me, I am nearly 60. But I had trained hard, and I had a story in my head where I could get a sub-47-minute time. I had a vision in my head where I could see myself achieving it.
The Story Meets Reality
The Story Meet Reality
But the reality on the day was very different, it was way hotter than I was expecting.
This podcast is my journey through that process. It’s about how we stay focused but at the same time allow for the reality of the situation and take it as information rather than failure.
Because everything we experience is new information to be taken forward for the next experience. So spoiler alert I didn’t make the time I was looking for I got 49:19.
There is a bigger concern. However, for that, you’ll need to listen to the podcast.

The crowning of a king happened this weekend. Tomorrow is a public holiday for some in the UK. I am not going to get all royal on you, but occasions like these allow the opportunity to explore the deeper meaning of these events.
I will bring you back to look at your sense of meaning on this show, by looking at the crowning of a king and exploring the value of our actions. When a sense of meaning drives our path or activity, it brings a whole new sense of purpose.
We all experience life as a series of thoughts and feelings. Rarely do we explore how it sits with us or ask what it means or says about us.
I started this podcast because of my search for meaning. When it is missing, life can become hollow and a bit Meh.
Over the last 50 years, we have been set free from the age of deference, and many have left the institutions or faiths the extolled values from which to live.
That freedom is lovely, but with it comes a responsibility to live your own life.
In this show, we explore the options and how you might find more meaning in the life you choose to lead.

How do we reignite our passion and kindle the fire for life and all that it offers? Last weekend I heard a poem, it was a reading at the Sunday singing circle. I knew it was something valuable to share with you, as it speaks so much to the journey that we experience.
It is called “ What to Remember When Waking”. by David Whyte. (I have copied it below.)
These words are about the transition on waking because there is a world of the dreamscape where everything is possible, and as we return each morning, there is that moment of transition when our worlds blend.
This morning I had the sense that at birth, we are filled like a cup with excitement and desire. I remember our toddler bursting out of bed to get to his toys and seize the day. There is no need for kindling. Youth has enough fire of its own, there was more on these thoughts but not for today.
In this show, we explore where desire goes.
Lets explore where desire goes and how it is possible to bring it back, to kindle the fire, that small flame of intention and see it become the dazzling blaze of our dreams.
The poem reminds us not to be small; it is one of the thousands of similar texts that remind us to be open and seek opportunity.
“What shape lies in the seed of you, to grow and spread it branches against a future sky”
I love that line, it is about dreaming into the future and seeing the impossible become possible.
Remember if you need help in finding your future sky, to kindle the fire do reach out.
The poem is below.
What to Remember When Waking by David Whyte
In that first hardly noticed moment in which you wake,
coming back to this life from the other
more secret, moveable and frighteningly honest world
where everything began,
there is a small opening into the new day
which closes the moment you begin your plans.
What you can plan is too small for you to live.
What you can live wholeheartedly will make plans enough
for the vitality hidden in your sleep.
To be human is to become visible
while carrying what is hidden as a gift to others.
To remember the other world in this world
is to live in your true inheritance.
You are not a troubled guest on this earth,
you are not an accident amidst other accidents
you were invited from another and greater night
than the one from which you have just emerged
Now, looking through the slanting light of the morning window
toward the mountain presence of everything that can be
what urgency calls you to your one love?
What shape waits in the seed of you
to grow and spread its branches
against a future sky?
Is it waiting in the fertile sea?
In the trees beyond the house?
In the life you can imagine for yourself?
In the open and lovely white page on the writing desk?
from The House of Belonging, Many Rivers Press

The eulogy. It’s funny we spend a lot of time avoiding the idea that life will end. So why should you take time out to consider your eulogy when it’s not you that has to deliver it?
Because it is your legacy.
Today's podcast considers what people will say about you when you are gone. The eulogy exercise is a powerful tool that Stephen Covey created in his book The seven habits of highly effective people. It is a process that has been copied and repeated in numerous books and courses. Because it is such a fantastic tool for getting to the hub of who you are and what you want to get out of this life.
So on this show, we explore why exercise is essential, which fits in with this idea of creating and living the story. The process lets us go forward and predict what we want people to say about us.
We get to look at our current life and ask, does what I’m living now get me to that conversation about my life?
Are You On Track?
If it does not, you get the opportunity to change it, rewrite the story, and live it all to the full.
My wife precipitated this exploration as we explored what our funerals would be like. It is part of the training to be an interfaith minister, creating a living funeral.
It sounds morbid, but it is a brilliant thing to do because when you are gone, your family have a copy of your funeral created by you. They can get on with grieving and giving you a good send-off without the stress of planning for it.

Finding purpose is almost a universal cry. We all want our lives to be valid, meaningful and worthwhile. But most of us want it to be revealed in a blinding light or burning bush moment. You might be one of the lucky ones, but for most of us, it will not happen like that.
In this show, we explore that path to that revelation and give you some tools to start your journey. Yes, like everything, there is no free ticket.
I was lucky this week to attend an event called Finding your purpose. Bit of a fluke; some friends were going, so we decided to tag along. It was hosted by the Findhorn Foundation and featured Robert Holden in the UK with Caroline Myss and David Spangler in the US.
Thousands of Book About Finding Purpose
They had a slightly different take on finding a purpose and have been working with it for many years. What is clear is that there are thousands of books on this subject, and that itself is a clue because finding a purpose or cause is a universal need.
One aspect they all agreed upon was that your purpose always happens whether you are conscious of it, and it is unlikely to be revealed in a blinding flash unless you are creating the light.
Another factor of finding purpose is the unbreakable link with meaning, which is about choosing something. We must decide what gives our life meaning, then find ways to express that meaning in alignment with values, and there is the purpose.
It is worth remembering that this podcast started out of my desire to find more meaning and purpose and a reason to live for the next 30 years.
On the show, I draw together my thought and experiences of my purpose and give you a few tools to move you forward on your journey to that grail.
