Can You Be Happy And Still Serious?
01/03/2019 Duration: 19minOn today’s show, David Ralph talks openly as to his struggle with the world of happy people doing what they want, apposed to the deeply furrowed brow crew that much of the world shows.You see it has always been a juxtaposition with his belief that just because someone is looking like they are having fun in their lives, it doesn’t mean that they aren’t serious about their life.Serious about having fun…is that possible?Can you work in an environment where you are 100% authentic to yourself and still be taken as a serious businessman?The reason that I ask that is just this week, I met an old colleague who after listening to the Join Up Dots podcast was very open with giving me advice.The advice was quite simply that I should be presenting a more polished and authoritarian performance to the world.He felt that because I was happily bouncing along having the greatest time in my life whilst being 100% me, i wasn’t able to provide what the world needed.However, that viewpoint is a crock from start to finish.

Podcast to Location Freedom (MINDSET)
27/02/2019 Duration: 53minToday's guest joining us on the show is a man with a zany, positive, outlook to life which is truly refreshing to see.He does things his way, and is as he says "a story addict". If there's one thing that I believe has the power to change the world, it's Story.Stories are how we transmit our deepest beliefs as a species, open our souls to those we care about most, relate to and empathize with people we don't know, and ultimately bring about change by eliciting deep and powerful emotions from our audience.If there's a thread that runs through everything I do, it's a deep yearning to unearth and share stories that cause the listener, viewer, or reader to feel. Whether it's podcast production and sound engineering, photography, or writing, this is the core of my craft and my purpose.If there's one thing I've learned from exploring the world through different mediums, it's that the method of portrayal matters far less than discovering and understanding the heart of a story, and sharing it authentically.We all have

How To Feel Energised Every Day (FITNESS)
15/02/2019 Duration: 13minEnergy Exchanges might not be something that you never really think about, however in today's world of business, busyness and non stop socialising more often than not the world is running on fumes. Tiredness isn't something that takes us over, like an unexpected foe, as it is with us all the time. We keep on going and going, until either something happens to our health which rocks us on our hills, or life forces us to slow down, by taking away those constant demands. I'll give you an example, how many of us work, work, work, until we get to the weekend, and then turn our attention to the chores that we need to do around the house? We dont ever say to ourselves, "This weekend, we will just 100% unplug, relax and get sun on our faces...ready for the coming week" Energy Exchanges work both ways people. You are giving it away so how about reclaiming some of it to work better? Or, we go to the expense to go on vacation with our family and the first five days we just can't switch off from life, until a few days off
