Getting Real with Yourself
A free 3-part mini video series to help you begin to get out of your own way.
With Ian McDermott
Maybe you’re tired of moving too fast to notice the stories you’re telling – the ones that justify the job you’ve’ve outgrown, the ambition you’ve buried, or the path you never meant to take.
This free 3-part video series is your invitation to pause.
To tune in.
To start getting real with yourself – before life forces the issue.
Getting real with yourself is about paying attention to how you are getting in your own way, even if you don’t realise it.
Once you notice it and begin to engage with it, real change can happen.
These videos are short.
No fluff. No pressure. Just a quiet, honest nudge in the right direction.
And they’re yours to watch on your own terms in your own time.
🎥 Here’s what is inside the series:
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 spot the subtle self-deceptions holding you back and start leading yourself, this quick video will give you some ideas 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. Change doesn’t have to be overwhelming.
Part 3:
Ready Enough – Overcoming Perfectionism and Taking Action
Watch out for the mindset trap of waiting for the “right” time 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. You can take bold steps towards new opportunities, even when the path isn’t fully laid out yet.
Is This Series for You?
If you’re feeling dissatisfied, stuck, or stagnant – or if you just want more out of life, then yes, this is for you.
These feelings aren’t just random; they’re signals to you from yourself. They’re telling you it’s time for a change. Don’t ignore them. They are your cue to act.
Are you going to stay in the “comfort” of the familiar, or are you ready to do something about it? If you want to take action and shift your life in the direction you desire, this series is the perfect place to start.
Circling around the idea of change can be frustrating, tiresome and lonely.
We’d like to help you make it happen.
