“Failure isn’t about disaster. Failure is about learning and picking yourself up and making sure you don’t make the same mistake twice.” (16:19)
“I quite like to not necessarily give my sole attention to the podcast when I’m having that experience. But I think there’s something really important about movement. Listening and movement is a really potent combination, I find.” (22:28)
“Neuro being your brain, your mind, linguistic being the language you’re speaking, and the programming is how are you programming the language you’re using. I also then think about this idea of modeling excellence. So, if I see somebody that’s really great at a particular skill or behaving in a particular way, there’s a whole series of questions that help to uncover what it is they’re doing, often unconsciously.” (24:50)
“I think that’s what podcast hosts can also do is to be able to help the guest get out of their own way and uncover some new insight and thinking. And that’s where those value-added moments will appear in the podcast.” (32:03)
“The boundary gives you focus and it gives you intention to say, ‘in these episodes, this is the attention we’re trying to achieve here.’ And that’s how coaching works.” (37:48)
