Do you need to know where your beliefs come from to change them?
In this conversation with Dr. Marietjie Smit, we talk about the beliefs that shape us, and how we can replace them with new, healthy beliefs even if we are unable to access where they come from.
We also look at the common idea of "fake it till you make it", and propose a much more helpful approach for replacing your beliefs with healthier ones that serve you and reflect the true you.
Dr. Smit is the founder of the Reconstruct Community (an obesity and bariatric advocacy group), completed her PhD in Business Management (Entrepreneurship) at 41 and is a fan of lifelong learning.

What are you afraid of when it comes to achieving your biggest goals and dreams? Failure? Success? In the first episode of this new series, Dr Marietjie Smit and I unpack how fear holds us back from living up to our potential.
From fearing failure to fearing success, catastrophizing about worst-case scenarios and reframing fear to move forward, we examine how fear keeps you stuck in a myriad of different ways, and how to break through and overcome it, or harness it to keep moving forward. Whether you are actively facing fear or totally unaware of how much it is influencing you, you will gain something from this conversation.

#48 Josh Romisher — LAUNCHING THE FUTURE
Friday Sep 08, 2023
Friday Sep 08, 2023
Josh Romisher, CEO of LaunchLab in South Africa, shares his experience helping entrepreneurs and academics build startups and his ultimate focus on dealing with the "big wicked problem" of climate change. Being closely connected to Stellenbosch University, Josh shares how he leverages LaunchLab's relationship with SU in two directions; building startups from university research and ideas, and building startups with university experts. He also discusses the importance of passion, grit, and a growth mindset in entrepreneurship, and designing solutions for real needs rather than trying to commercialize research. Josh offers insights on universities as catalysts for innovation through partnerships between entrepreneurs, experts, and students, and reflects on applying entrepreneurial principles like having a clear mission and values in his personal life as a husband and father. Key themes include pursuing meaningful work, cultivating work-life balance, and fostering an entrepreneurial mindset in all aspects of life. — — — — Francois Esterhuizen is a life coach who helps professionals get unstuck and gain momentum, and a relationship counsellor with decades of experience who specialises in conflict and communication.

#47 Paul Rowett — CAN A CLIMATE CURRENCY SAVE HUMANITY?
Saturday Sep 02, 2023
Saturday Sep 02, 2023
This inspiring interview with Paul Rowett dives into his journey as a purpose-driven entrepreneur. After achieving business success and an exit, Paul realized money and time freedom weren't enough - he needed purpose. A documentary about plastic pollution sparked Paul into action on climate change. He launched a currency called Toco that creates environmental wealth and demand for carbon removal, where users can exchange Rands for Toco on an app, then spend Toco at participating merchants in Stellenbosch, with each transaction removing their carbon footprint. The vision is to scale Toco globally, boosting demand and pricing for high-quality carbon credits. Paul shares openly about finding purpose, being present with family amidst the busyness of starting a movement, and how his wife supports his purpose.

#43 Personal Growth in 50 Quick Questions: 46 - 50
Thursday Mar 17, 2022
Thursday Mar 17, 2022
This 50-question journey is a great tool to help you figure out:
- the current state of your life
- how you want your life to unfold
- what is currently in the way of you realising that life
- what you need to do to get past those obstacles and live a life you love.
This isn't a quick-fix ten-step program that promises impossibly easy results. Some questions will have obvious answers, while others might seem obvious at first but end up revealing things you weren't aware of. And if you really commit to this process, some questions will keep you awake at night, and the answers you uncover will give you a fresh perspective on your life. The more you put into this process, the more you'll get out of it ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
These aren't questions you regularly have to answer, so take your time with them, reflect on them, and write your answers down. It will really help.
I hope you enjoy the journey, and as always, you're welcome to book a free consultation call if you would like to explore the possibility of working with me:
