In this episode I speak with Charles Faulkner (a man whose work has had a big influence on the way I think about language, metaphor and money). A trainer and a master modeller, Charles was featured in the book The New Market Wizards and other books for his pioneering work modelling the best market traders – so-called Market Wizards. Charles also led the way introducing Cognitive Linguistics as the basis of new metaphoric change processes. As a Visiting Senior Fellow to the University of Surrey School of Management, he has been instrumental in getting research in the UK started in NLP. His 2017 TED Talk introduces his newer thinking on the nature of our imagination.
“Everybody hurts. You are not alone.”
-Michael Stipe
I wrote this post on Facebook yesterday and it caught fire, so I thought I’d share it with you here:
[CONFESSION] Sometimes I screw up and don’t want anyone to know
People regularly tell me that it seems like everything I do turns out well.
I assure them that isn’t the case; that lots of the things I do don’t work out the way I want them to. Read More →
I’ve got some mind-bending enthusiasms for you this week. Enjoy! Jx
1. A quote I’m resonating with
Here’s one from Sydney Banks that I’ve been reflecting on this week (it’s from an old recording of his called The Best of 2 Worlds):
“It lies within… you see, if you think that anything outside… is gonna give it to you… then you’re saying it’s not inside… no matter where you go you take it with you… it’s yours… you can’t run away from it…” Read More →

In this episode you are going to hear a coaching session I did with executive coach – Kim Kaase back in 2015 on a BETA test of my programme ‘The Thriving Coaches Blueprint’.
One of the things that is interesting about this episode is that after the session Kim went on to enrol clients on coaching packages and to put what she learned into practice with great effect!
This episode is sponsored by my new book – The Little Book of Results.

“You do not belong to you. You belong to the universe.
The significance of you will forever remain obscure to you,
but you may assume that you are fulfilling your significance
if you apply yourself to converting all your experience to highest advantage of others.
You and all men are here for the sake of other men.”
– R. Buckminster Fuller
The power of surrendering to life
This week’s JST is the transcription of a rant I kicked off on during a chat with my buddies Garret Kramer and Michael Neill; I tore off with a bit of a rant and IMHO, this is the ‘secret sauce’ that’s behind truly outstanding results. Read More →
1. A quote I’m resonating with
I’ve just spent the past couple of weeks with my dear friends, colleagues and mentors, Jan and Chip Chipman. We ran the Clarity Life Transformation Retreat together last week, and had a beautiful time with a great group of people. I was reminded today of the power of the inside-out understanding, and came across this beautiful quote from Syd Banks who’s speaking of the power and beauty of what we each have within us.
“You deserve to live in heaven here on Earth, at all times, because that’s where you started from.” Read More →

In the first episode of the new Thriving Coaches Podcast you will hear an interview I did with Ankush Jain. Ankush is one of the people who’s featured in my new book ‘The Little Book of Results’. While the book is designed for anyone who wants to create more of the results that matter to them, it is specifically useful to coaches, therapists and other transformation professionals because it’s based around the structure I have already used to show hundreds of coaches how to grow thriving practices and increase their impact.

1. A quote I’m resonating with
Sam Harris’ Waking Up podcast is one of the shows I give financial support to. While there’s lots he says that I disagree with, he’s an extremely clear thinker and an honest agent. He’s often maligned (unfairly), but having listened to hundreds of hours of his work, I haven’t heard anything to support the unfair claims made against him. Here’s a quote from his conversation with the also-maligned Dave Rubin that’s got me thinking this week:
