  • The Odyssey Plan
    Jun 29 2025

    The biggest trap in life? Thinking your current path is the only path.


    In this episode we introduce you to the Odyssey Plan – a 20 minute personal exercise that encourages you to zoom out, ask yourself bigger questions to reveal 3 possible futures and forces you to confront what you really want.

    For Ral – her plan reveals less work and move over Ellen Degeneres!

    For Jac – linen and leather, Kenya and a few leopards

    The Odyssey Plan shows you how many options you have and which ones are worth pursuing – get to it!

  • Not Everyone is Meant to Come with You
    Jun 22 2025

    Are your co-workers your mates? Do you love working with them? Have you stayed longer in a role that didn’t serve you because of your coworkers? Yep, guilty.


    Have you been promoted and all of a sudden your great mate colleagues now report to you, and things feel different for them and for you? Have you left a role and promised a co-worker or direct report you will take them with you…?

    This topic is one that not only applies to your work mates, it can also apply to people outside of work, to running a business and clients not coming with you as you grow or change.

    This episode will make you think, and it will give you confidence and ideas on how to move forward and why sometimes it is really smart to leave others behind…

  • A Life Lived in Fear is a Life Half Lived
    Jun 15 2025

    Do you stay “small” because of fear? Hold yourself back from doing ‘the thing’? Not meet the person. Avoid grasping the opportunity for fear of what might happen (negative) or what people might think?


    You’re living a life in fear and that is a life half lived.

    In this episode Jac & Ral encourage you to try living a life of courage instead – don’t wait for permission, validation or reassurance, take 1 small step and start taking Ral’s 4 simple actions to make a change starting today. Jac shares a simple exercise for you to try – if that doesn’t put courage in your life, nothing will.

    The question shouldn’t be what if I fail, the question should be what if I fly?

  • Sunk Cost Fallacy
    Jun 1 2025

    If you’re digging a hole in the wrong place, it doesn’t matter how deep you’ve dug… it’s still the wrong hole!

    This episode is all about continuing to stay on a course of action despite it being more beneficial to quit. You might try to rationalise the situation by saying since the spent cost can't be recovered, you might as well stay the course and/or allocate additional resources to try to make things work… however is that the right decision for you??

    Jac & Ral both share examples of embracing sunk cost fallacy – and how to know when to hold them, how to know when to fold them and how to know when to walk away! Sing it out loud Kenny!!

  • A, B & C Goals
    May 25 2025

    Why stop at 1 goal when you can set more? This episode inspired by Maddy Phillips and the Boston marathon.

    We are talking about s-t-r-e-t-c-h goals. Ral says chin ups are her stretch goal, Jac thinks making it to Friday and a glass of wine is not just her weekly goal but a priority!

    It’s all about mindset. It applies to your personal and professional life. So set yourself an A goal, a B goal and a C goal.

    Goal A is the ultimate! Flexibility is key – even if you don’t achieve the A goal, getting to your B or C goals are still a win.

    Standby for the chin ups goal being achieved by Ral!

    Every single person has potential. Untapped. Ral reckons she’s already exceeded hers, Jac reckons she’s just warming up, so how doyou reach your potential?

    There are a few things you can do and we cover all of them and how they have applied to us or others we know.

    And for some shits & giggles listen to find out what a nun once told Ral about her potential…!
