LP&B Lisa Barry Mission Led Content
Wednesday May 06, 2020
Wednesday May 06, 2020
My guest on the show began her career as a teacher, and while she left it behind long ago, she still retains that awareness into her business. Lisa Barry Mission led content, is all about getting business owners to align with their mission and values and bring it to the world through the marketing of their business.
One week ago today, Lisa was one of the speakers at our virtual event Living beyond the change. It exceeded my expectations on many levels. But the biggest win for me was the clarity I have discovered for this podcast.
All of the speakers at the event had been on a journey. They overcame an obstacle and out the other side, richer for the experience. We all have that capacity and need to move through the fear and seize the opportunities the universe provides
There will be more events, but in the meantime, it will be the role of Life Passion and Business to spread the stories of people as role models for what is possible.
Lisa Barry Mission Led Content
Lisa was never motivated by money and wanted a life that had value and a role where she helped people. She went to Uni and got a degree in teaching, she trained as a coach and found work supporting young people to raise their aspirations and find their soul purpose.
The work was good, but life itself was a struggle, especially with a mortgage and growing family.
It was a redundancy that pushed her to discover a talent for writing, that lead on to discoveries in marketing and business.
Like most stories, it is not a line straight to success. But successful, it was to the point where last year Lisa's husband left his job to work with her business. The plan for 2020 was the family to start a travel adventure throughout Europe.
We recorded this show in the middle of March before a little matter of a pandemic was changing the plans.
Because Lisa was one of our speakers, it seemed logical to get this show out because it coincides with a free challenge that may be of interest to you.
Lisa is running a free five-day challenge to help people produce social media content that is in line with mission and values. It is starting on Sunday, 10th May. It is open to all, and I know it will be worth your time.
Full details are at the end of the show.
I hope you enjoy the conversation with Lisa Barry.
As mentioned there was a 5 day challenge that is about to start on Sunday the 10th
If you'd like to follow it up very simple go Lisa Barry Online to the Facebook page and there will be a button somewhere.

The Launch of Living Beyond the Change
Sunday Apr 19, 2020
Sunday Apr 19, 2020
We are living in an unusual time. My mind has been thinking about what that means for us as we go forward. Over the last two years at Life Passion and Business I have been talking to some amazing people that have amazing lives, having come through all sorts of adversity and situations.
This has to be the first time in history outside of war that we are all having to deal with the same thing at the same time. When this is over we will have to go back and pick up the pieces of our lives. It has been in my mind for a while to do a virtual event and this situation has brought the timetable forward quickly.
I think we will need help and support to get us through the next few months, because the life that we're going to return to will be very different from the life we left behind.Living Beyond The Change is 3 days with some of the best speakers in the field of Money, Mindset, Heath and Business. These are people that will help your go forward and thrive in the new world that will appear post COVID19
I hope you will join us free

LP&B 71 Gareth Riddy Author, Healer and Potty mouth
Wednesday Apr 08, 2020
Wednesday Apr 08, 2020
My guess on the show describes himself as an Author Healer and Potty mouth. Gareth Riddy is built like a bodybuilder. He has been a doorman, a mixed martial artist and still enjoys a bit of Brazilian jujitsu.
Gareth has broken the mould for me, as before I met him, my stereotypical vision of a male healer would have involved a beard and perhaps sandals.
I first became aware of Gareth a while back when he launched his book.
How to Undo the Shit the Modern World Does to Us
We connected through social media, how else! And finally, I heard his story when we were in a coaching group together. Gareth is a cancer survivor, and his journey to becoming healer started with himself. Now as said he is a self-confessed potty mouth. He does tend to use colourful language although he was quite well behaved on the podcast.
His speciality is getting people out of chronic pain, resolving the issues, and returning peoples cognitive functions.
"I do it all with love & rude words."
His patients call him a magician, as he does his magic, and they get to be people again. As you will hear on the show his goal in life is to give as many people as possible, the tools they need to thrive in the modern world, without being dragged down by the ever-increasing demands.
His work often starts when a client says. "The Doctors say there is nothing they can do."
Gareth is a big softy and one of the all-round good guys. I hope you enjoy the conversation as much as I did.

LP&B 70 Jennifer Main The Empathic Initiator
Thursday Mar 19, 2020
Thursday Mar 19, 2020
This recording was made in December 2019 so my cough was seasonal and we had no idea of what was to come.
What would it be like growing up if you did see the bogeyman in the closet, or hands reaching out from under the bed? On today's show is Jennifer main and she has been empathic from a very early age, what does that mean?
The Gift With a Price
It means she was super sensitive to the world around her; she could see and feel and hear stuff that others could not. That might sound like a fantastic superpower. But like all gifts, it came with a price, as a child getting love and emotional support was hard. Hugging people was painful, she could feel their pain and emotional baggage. Adults carry so many emotions; it is very confusing to a young child.
Jeniffer was born in North Carolina; her family have strong Christian beliefs. It is the Bible belt; there was no place or space to talk about things that might be considered ungodly.
She learned to rationalise these images and thoughts as part of an overactive and creative imagination. That started her journey to understand these images, feelings and experiences. She says her whole life has been a study of humanity beginning with herself.
The Empathic Initiator
Jennifer went on to study phycology, she worked in addiction and with special needs. Presently she is the Empathic Initiator a transformational guide and speaker.
She is a catalyst for change, her mission is to inspire individuals to recognise unique potential and calling, to embrace purpose, and to live an aligned and authentic existence.
I hope you enjoy the conversation with Jeniffer Main

LP&B 69 Fiona English Exploring Spirituality
Monday Feb 24, 2020
Monday Feb 24, 2020
Fiona English exploring spirituality in the 21st Century and reverse podcasting. It is an unusual show in that I am being reverse podcasted, is that even a verb?

Fiona is a positive psychologist and she is exploring spirituality. Where do you sit with community religion and spirituality?
Over the last 20 years, organised religion in the UK and to some extent in Ireland has taken a backseat. Church going membership is still there in the older population. However, churches are not the centre of a community as they were.
Service attendance in the Uk is at an all-time low. People still attend for the significant events, Christmas weddings and funerals. But they are not part of the church community.

I think the loss of community is a big factor in societies problems. No amount of social media is going to replace people coming together for a shared purpose that is not related to political or sport.
Between 50 60 and well into the 70 the majority of the UK population attended a church, on balance it was expected.
I am pleased that pressure to conform has passed, but it has left a vacuum where people choose to mix and communicate in silos. That has lead to the divided society we see today.
My Church Community,
As a child, my family and I went to church, and like most, refreshments were available after the service. People would connect and arrange events and social opportunities. It bolted the community together. My father was there on occasions for the community, not for my mother's faith.
So fast forward 40 + years and the service has no relevance for me. I like the buildings and find the architecture interesting but that's it.
That is my background of where I sit when Fiona approached floated the idea of a reverse podcast. I am always up for a good conversation and how could a refuse.
Exploring Spirituality with Fiona English

Fiona is a coach and business consultant with experience in global investment markets. However, She left the industry to develop a coaching business around positive psychology. It was a calling as, she researches, speaks and writes about Positive Psychology, the science behind what makes individuals and communities flourish.
It is her mission to expand perceptions of spirituality; she believes that we are individually empowered to understand and prioritise our spiritual wellbeing in life. That there is a universality to the experience of spirituality, and it remains a personal path.
If the last two year has taught me anything, I have to agree every is a personal path.
I hope you enjoy the conversation.

Monday Feb 03, 2020
This podcast is called grititude because it's about being thankful for the bits in life that don't go so well. Why would you want to be thankful for the tough bits? Well, a lot of that is about growth because unless we experience a challenge or resistance there is no reason or opportunity to grow and change.
So check out the podcast it's just 5 Minutes of your Life.

LP&B 68 Miha Matlievski - The Fail Coach
Wednesday Jan 29, 2020
Wednesday Jan 29, 2020
Children, they have no fear of failure.

Once children get beyond the baby stage, they start to explore; we begin to see their unstoppable determination to engage in the world around them.
From floundering unconscious movement to gaining control of their limbs, babies learn to crawl and eventually walk and run. There may be cries of frustration, but there is no fear of failure.
Adulthood Brings Change
Fast forward to adulthood, and for many, it is a different picture.
Somewhere along the way, we learn to say “I can’t” or “I tried that and failed”. I am not doing that it might fail and it will hurt, people will laugh… Fill the blank
So where does that determination go? How do we get caught so severely in fear of failure? So much so that we would rather endure discomfort than step out and take a risk. More importantly, what does it take to find the get-up-and-go to overcome that fear?

I was said somewhere that Thomas Edison was afraid of the dark so he invented the light bulb. It was challenging, and there were many setbacks
I have not failed. I’ve just found 2,000 ways that won’t work.
We all experience fear of Failure
Fear of failure is a huge issue in the worlds of business and personal development. That is why I was delighted to meet and interview my guest.
Miha Matlievski – the Fail Coach

He went from running four successful businesses and having a personal net worth of $15M, to being $5M in debt, literally overnight and eventually reaching the point where he was ready to take his own life. It took courage and resilience for Miha to climb back from feeling like a failure to learning from his experiences and empowering others to develop a healthy relationship with failing.
I hope you enjoy the conversation with Miha Miha Matlievski The Fail Coach.

Yvette Owo Business Fun and Fulfilment
What was life like for you growing up?
In conversation with my guest this week, I reminded of my teenage years.
My parents came from simple beginnings. My mother was from the East End of London. For my American friends that would have been a very impoverished area during the war, it was heavily bombed.
My grandfather was a piano tuner but did many things, not all of them legal.
My father was born in Leeds in the midlands of the UK, and his father was a Barber. Both of my parents did not understand the commercial world. Dad did a technical job for local government and Mum did a range of jobs around childcare. Commercialism was neither something important or relevant.
I can remember buying a bicycle from one of mothers friends. It was not right a lousy choice, far too big. So I looked to sell it just weeks after I had bought it. But I wasn't allowed to sell it for any more than I had paid for it.
At the time, I was pissed about it, but they were adamant that it was not fair on the family from whom I had bought it. It's funny how these memories get triggered. I forgot about that story, and it must have been more than 40 years ago.
Yvette Owo is my guest on today's programme had no such resistance to commercialism in her family. When she was ten years old during her summer break, she started five businesses. She was creating ideas and things that she could sell. Yes, she did have a lemonade stand, but she found the return investment wasn't good enough.
What is fascinating about Yvette Owo is that she is goal-oriented, setting goals works for her. She is diligent in her process and creating clear plans to achieves them.
Business for her is a pleasure, so while working fulltime, she built a brand around personal finance and was looking to go full time when disaster struck. She was hit by a car and life changed.
After getting hit by a car, she developed a debilitating disease; she learned the hard way the value of financial & time freedom.
This is her story

LP&B 66 Dominica Roszko From Marketing to Naturopath
Wednesday Nov 20, 2019
Wednesday Nov 20, 2019
Life is always about stories; that is a foundation of this podcast; it was my desire to discover more about other peoples lives that lead me here.
Stories are the core of everything when you consider how much of your life is set around a narrative. Think of the news that is all about people or events in the world. When we catch up with friends, it is all about what is going in their life.
Look at politics that is people looking to lead through the narrative of a positive shared vision.
So why are stories so important to us?
In the blockbuster movies, it is the character progression that keeps it interesting. There is the mission or quest with the potential for success and the failure ever-present.
Now that is a subject for a podcast short because we are all on the mission. Onwards to my guest.
Dominica Roszko
My guest on today's programme was born in Poland and the seeds to her journey were planted when she was very young. Her grandma was a natural herbalist she had a big store cupboard full of things that would help or sooth pain or illness. The story is interesting as you will see how it travels in a circle as Dominica return to her routes.
Dominica came from an entrepreneurial family. it was natural for her to follow that career path.
It was a business journey that ended with a successful marketing business, but it nearly killed her — suffering from burnout and severe adrenal fatigue. She overcame this chronic illness with a vegan diet.
Today fully recovered and joins me on the programme as a qualified nutritionist, herbalist and vegan chef.
She's been running a plant-based nutrition practice for 5 years, where she works mainly with people interested in reducing their meat and dairy consumption.
Dominica is sharing her experience through regular workshops, courses and talks in the UK and Europe, where she teaches nutrition, herbal medicine and plant-based cooking and food preparation to the general public, chefs, restaurant managers and other companies.
All of that energy and passion that when into marketing other peoples projects, is now focused on her business and her passion.
She is an author and regular contributor to newspapers, magazines, online publications.
I hope you enjoy the conversation with Dominica Roszko

LP&B 65 Ashley Costello Creating Resilient kids
Sunday Oct 20, 2019
Sunday Oct 20, 2019
"I’m creating resilient kids because education is broken,”
These are the words of my guest Ashley Costello. She has worked in the field of Psychotherapy for over 20 years. It was a TEDx talk last year that brought Ashley to my attention education and children were a big part of my life for a few years..
My son went to a Steiner School and I became very involved, became a trustee and was the chair for a few years. I got to see the inside of education from both sides of the plate. Steiner education with all of its faults is a model for how education could be.
When my son moved into mainstream education I could really see the gap between the two worlds and felt the pain of both.
Hearing Ashley in her TEDx talk spoke to my desire for change.
On the programme, you will hear how Ashley’s interest in psychology stemmed from her A level studies. It was the possibility of helping people that called out to her.
I just knew it was about people and that is where my passion lead.
During her gap year, she went travelling in South America. We are taking serious travel as this was before mobile phones and sat-nav. It was the synchronicity of a missed phone call that set her life on a path.
It led to a course on counselling and eventually into her passion that is physiotherapy. She was one of the youngest people in training and subsequently in practice. She put her ability to excel in the field of therapy while so young was her travel experience.
Today Ashey is about supporting children in education she specialises in children and adolescents mental health.
As said I discovered Ashley when her TEDx talk “Is Education broken?” came up on my facebook feed.
She received so much feedback from that event that it encouraged her to start a new project “The resilient kid”.
It is a programme that looks to fill a gap for parents, teachers, heads, educationalists and everyone who feels as passionate about giving children the tools for a positive future.
I hope you enjoy the conversation with Ashley Costello
If you would like to get in touch with Ashley you will find her on Linkedin and facebook
