But first…

Getting real with yourself — being honest about your thoughts, feelings, strengths, weaknesses, and motivations — can have profound benefits for your personal growth and well-being. It’s likely you aren’t purposefully being dishonest with yourself, but people have a way of making meaning that allows us to ‘live with’ rather than create the life and career that you may be truly seeking.

Getting real with yourself is a powerful tool for leading a more authentic, fulfilling, and successful life. It requires courage and introspection, but the rewards are well worth the effort. Enhanced self awareness, improved mental health, better decision making, deeper relationships, personal growth, more alignment between who you are and what you do, more life satisfaction…so, not much to play for then.

Take your time to consider your reaction and thoughts as you listen to Ian in the videos below. What comes up? What might you like to do about it?

Part 1: Stop Lying and Start Leading

It’s time to get real with yourself. In this first video, we’ll tackle the lies we tell ourselves—about our jobs, our ambitions, and our lives. You’ll learn how to strip away the excuses and step into true self-leadership. If you’re ready to stop kidding yourself and start leading yourself, this quick session will give you some tools to take the first, crucial steps.

Part 2: Small Changes. Big Impact.

This second video focuses on the power of incremental shifts—those small, consistent changes that have a very significant impact over time. You’ll learn how to make them. Change doesn’t have to be overwhelming.

Part 3: Ready Enough – Overcoming Perfectionism and Taking Action

Watch out for the mindset trap of waiting too long before making a move. Here we look at how you can be ‘ready enough’ to take action with the resources you have right now. Get some quick tips on how to develop resilience and pivot when faced with the unexpected. Learn how to take bold steps towards new opportunities, even when the path isn’t fully laid out yet.
