Season 3 Trailer
Are you curious about the next season of the podcast? You don’t have to wait much longer. I’m excited to share a sneak peek with you in this short episode on what’s coming soon in Season 3. I think you’ll see why this is shaping up to be the biggest and boldest season yet!
Erin and Josh on Season 2 Reflections
In this special episode, Josh joins me as we once again come full circle – this time to wrap up Season 2! We reflect on the highlights of the season and talk about the themes that emerged across the conversations this time around. We also cover my favourite nuggets from each of the 13 guests in this season. Plus, I give a sneak peek for what’s coming up next!
Nancy Ho on Redefining Success and Fostering Fulfillment
In my final guest episode of Season 2, I’m chatting with Fulfillment guru, Nancy Ho, who joins us all the way from Singapore! Nancy’s work centres on what she has labeled as the “Professional Paradox”, which is the odd duality in which many people who are talented and (by all traditional measures) “successful”, often struggle to find personal fulfillment. How can this be? This episode is chock-full of wisdom on how to avoid happiness pitfalls and effectively guide yourself toward a stronger sense of fulfillment.
Erin on Checking In & Assessing Progress (Personal Strategy: Step 4)
We’ve created a bold vision, we’ve identified our pursuits, we’ve mapped a course of action and now it’s time to check in on occasion to reflect on where we’re at and make adjustments if needed. We’ll do this by assessing our vision, validating our strategy and refreshing our action plan. We’ll also discuss the sweet spot where your Unique Equation and Personal Strategy intersect! This is where long-lasting fulfillment resides.
Charles Achampong on Worldwide Family Travel & The Power of The Pause
Have you ever dreamed about taking a break from your daily routine and travelling the world with your family? This week’s guest, Charles Achampong, did exactly that – put his regular life on pause and travelled the world for 6 months with his wife and two young kids. Together, we talk about things that are central to fulfillment, such as using travel as a catalyst for personal growth, finding joy in the ordinary, and learning to beautifully colour outside the lines. We dig into the power of pausing and the steps Charles and his family took to make this happen so that, if interested, you can make it happen in your life too!
Kristy Shen on Financial Independence, Retire Early (FIRE)
“Stop Working, Start Living”. Those powerful words grace the cover of the life-changing book “Quit Like a Millionaire”, expertly written by Kristy Shen and Bryce Leung. In this week’s episode, I have the opportunity to chat with Financial Independence, Retire Early (FIRE) guru Kristy Shen about all kinds of freedom – financial freedom, time freedom, freedom from stuff and location freedom. In our conversation, we discuss strategies to retire early, optimize your money and live your dream of travelling the world. We also dig into her evolving appreciation for the gray in FIRE and in life.
Crystal Richard on Entrepreneurship and New Brunswick Travel
In this week’s episode, we get to know Crystal Richard (a.k.a. the East Coast Mermaid). I stumbled across Crystal on our trip to Atlantic Canada when her online blog made it feel like our family had a new best friend giving us a private, guided tour of Grand Manan Island. Together, we dig into her experience as an entrepreneur, how she finds creativity in storytelling and why we should all develop a coastal crush on New Brunswick.
Caroline Paul on How Outdoor Adventure Improves Our Lives as We Age
What a treat it is this week to welcome Caroline Paul to the podcast! Caroline’s most recent book, Tough Broad: From Boogie Boarding to Wing Walking – How Outdoor Adventure Improves Our Lives as We Age, is incredibly insightful when it comes to learning about opportunities to pour into our own fulfillment. This is not just a book; it is a full-blown quest to explore and understand how to live a dynamic life, especially as we grow older. Together, we explore redefining adventure, the magic of nature, the importance of awe and why a positive view of aging is so critical to your health.
Erin on Putting Your Strategy Into Action (Personal Strategy: Step 3)
Step 3 of Your Personal Strategy focuses on creating an action plan that will help you bridge the gap between your high-level strategy and your day-to-day activities. By celebrating our accomplishments so far, then identifying short-term goals and supporting behaviours for each pillar in our strategy, we can confidently move out of “thinking” mode and into “doing” mode.
