Summary

This week’s episode is a very special one - a chat with one of my biggest mentors, my dad!

In this episode we chatted about:

The moment he realised he could dream bigger (and how he planted that belief in me)
His powerful (and practical) perspective on burnout, consistency, and resilience
The only goal-setting advice you’ll ever need
How daily personal development and visualisation changed the course of his life
Why he made me learn to play the clarinet (and what it taught me about success)
His powerful mantra for life, business, and everything in between (I know you’re going to want to steal it!)

0:00.0	So this episode of the She Means Business Show is a little bit different to normal. This is actually a
0:05.0	conversation that I had with my dad when we were on holiday. So every Wednesday I host
0:10.8	She Means Business Live, which is a live session I do for like 20 to 30 minutes and I roped him in to
0:17.5	doing a live session with me while we were on holiday together. And it was amazing.
0:22.5	We talked all about how do you actually build a successful business? How do you get through
0:27.8	those really challenging times when you're building a business? And he shares some little
0:33.3	stories about me from when I was a kid. But my dad has been my biggest mentor. He has inspired me to do
0:41.6	what I'm doing. And, you know, as a kid, he sent me and my sister and brothers on course
0:46.7	to learn about the power of the mind. And it's really through the things that he's taught me that have
0:52.5	enabled me to achieve the things that I have
0:55.3	achieved. So I'm really excited to share this conversation with you and share his words of
1:01.0	wisdom. Everyone who joined me live for this episode, Blumen loved it, which is why we are
1:06.9	repurposing it on the actual real podcast. So I really hope you enjoy this conversation with
1:12.7	my dad. A lot of people don't even realize they have the opportunity to dream big and to go for it and to
1:18.2	make amazing things happen. I've heard people turn around to me and say, it's great for you,
1:23.1	but people like us don't achieve that sort of thing, to which I have to say, well, but why not?
1:27.9	Almost anything is possible. The mind is so powerful. We're limited just by our own conception
1:33.9	of what might be possible or what might not be possible. You might as well believe that
1:38.6	anything is possible rather than thinking that it's not possible.
1:45.3	Hello, hello everyone.
1:47.1	I am very excited that you are joining me for this very special version of She Me's
1:53.3	Business Live.
