Welcome to the very first episode of the Power Up Podcast. In this episode, we are excited to share the story behind our podcast along with some insights into who we are, and the work that has shaped our careers over the past 25 years. We will also give you an insight into the Power Up program and the 7 Natural Powers that help our clients establish the clarity, confidence, and belief to lead a happier, more purposeful life.

Perhaps you have looked back at your life and wondered how you got where you are today? Or maybe the work you once enjoyed has become mundane and uninspiring?

For some people, years can slip away with the same questions being asked “Is this all there is?" or "Is this the work I was meant to do?”, “Am I truly playing to my strengths and passions?". (Note: If you are grappling with these questions, you already have the answers!). Many remain stuck, living a life that falls short of what they genuinely deserve. A lack of clarity, fears and diminishing self-confidence act as big fat roadblocks resulting in inertia and procrastination.

The good news is, if this feels like you, it’s very common, you’re not alone…..and you are in the right place!

In this podcast we will explore proven ideas, strategies, and tools to enhance self-motivation, increase self belief to help you take control of your career, get back on the right track, and live the live you deserve.

We look forward to sharing this podcast adventure with you.

• Who are we, what is Power Up and where did it come from?

• How to overcome fears and build the confidence to change direction.
• How the 7 Natural Powers can be used to inspire change and accelerate performance?

“It's not what happens to you, but how you react to it that matters.” Epictetus

“We always overestimate the change that will occur in the next two years and underestimate the change that will occur in the next ten. Don't let yourself be lulled into inaction.” Bill Gates
