  • Are You Setting Your Own Goals or Somebody Elses? With Julie Hogbin

    Are You Setting Your Own Goals or Somebody Elses? With Julie Hogbin
    Apr 30 2025
    Julie Hogbin joins Doug in this episode. Julie is a multi-published author and founder of SuccessSuite.io and shares her story towards entrepreneurship, revealing personal setbacks that changed her perspective on success. From challenging limiting beliefs about writing books to creating an all-in-one AI platform for authors, Julie demonstrates how reinvention is possible at any stage in life. Their conversation on goal-setting fundamentals, delayed gratification and creating multiple income streams might just change how you approach your own goals and dreams. KEY TAKEAWAYS Julie emphasises that we're all inherently goal driven, but many entrepreneurs abandon structured goal setting when leaving corporate jobs, only to realise after about five years that they need clearer direction to achieve meaningful success.Leadership starts with self-awareness, understanding your personal style affects everything around you, yet many resist examining themselves deeply. Julie experienced this firsthand when she "unpicked" herself, didn't like what she found, but ultimately redesigned who she wanted to be.io is Julie's new AI-powered platform that streamlines book writing, publishing, marketing funnels, and podcast creation all in one place. It’s designed to help entrepreneurs establish authority and create recurring income streams.Publishing books establishes authority in entrepreneurial spaces. Some people earn substantial recurring income through strategic book publishing and marketing, with Julie mentioning individuals making £13,000 monthly through Amazon book sales and ads.Our goals are often unconsciously inherited from parents, caregivers and generations before us. True goal setting means unpacking these inherited beliefs and consciously creating your own mission and vision.Delayed gratification is Julie's golden nugget for successful goal achievement. Prioritising long-term benefits over immediate rewards in financial decisions, health and relationships creates sustainable success and stability.Julie completely transformed her life at age 52, age shouldn't limit reinvention. She proves that with hustle and working smart rather than just hard, change is always possible. BEST MOMENTS "If we don't have our own goals, we will achieve somebody else's. We don't know whose goals we are achieving. They are indoctrinated into us as we grow up and we carry generational goals with us." "I unpicked myself once, didn't like what I saw, got confused, and then changed bit by bit by bit to design me and I'm really happy with who I am." "In this entrepreneurial world, we've all got a book inside of us, all of us. We've all got more than one book inside of us... Having a book gives you an authority stamp." "The biggest thing, and I'm sure you will have spoken about it before and it is not earth shattering, I've had to learn it, it is one of the most important things to learn to achieve something that you truly want, and it's two words, delayed gratification." "When you really, truly want something, really want it, you can achieve it. You can…nothing sits in isolation, everything is connected.” ABOUT THE GUEST Www.JulieHogbin.com LinkedIn address?: @JulieHogbin X (Twitter) handle?: @JulieHogbin Facebook group SuccessSuite.io Https://LeadershipVoice.scoreapp.com JulieHogbin.com/WealthBeyindMoney.today VALUABLE RESOURCES Website: http://dougbennett.co.uk/ Email: doug@dougbennett.co.uk LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/financialdoug/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/FinancialDoug Facebook Wealth Tribe: https://join.dougbennett.co.uk/ Download Your "Ten-Step Guide To Financial Freedom" Here: https://bit.ly/Struggle-Success BOOKS: Goals Do Come True is now live and available to buy on Amazon: https://amzn.to/3phcy6Z Think Simple, Win Big is now live and available to buy on Amazon: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Think-Simple-Win-Big-Business/ Enjoy, and come back for the latest podcast each Wednesday.

  • Say Your Audacious Goals Out Loud | Holly Budge

    Say Your Audacious Goals Out Loud | Holly Budge
    Apr 23 2025
    Doug is joined by Holly Budge, one of the UK's most accomplished female adventurers. From becoming a professional skydiver to being the first woman to skydive Mount Everest, racing horses across Mongolia and summiting Everest, Holly shares how setting audacious goals transformed her life. But her most meaningful adventure came when she founded "How Many Elephants," working with female anti-poaching rangers in Africa. Holly's enthusiasm for setting and achieving seemingly impossible goals will leave you inspired to voice your own audacious dreams and step outside your comfort zone. KEY TAKEAWAYS At 21, Holly set an audacious goal to become a professional skydiving camera woman despite having no experience in skydiving or filming. By saving money, learning the skills, and persisting despite gender barriers, she achieved this goal, setting a foundation of self-confidence that influenced her future adventures.Holly's experience becoming the first woman to skydive Everest taught her the power of intention setting and perseverance in securing sponsorships. Despite not having £24,000 for the expedition, she said "yes" first and then found sponsors to fund her vision, demonstrating how commitment precedes resources.When faced with unexpected challenges during her adventures, like being caught in a storm on Everest or losing horses in Mongolia, Holly learned to make critical decisions independently.Holly transformed from wanting selfish indulgences in adventure to creating adventure with purpose by founding "How Many Elephants" and "World Female Ranger Week," using her platform to raise funds and awareness for conservation causes that received 500 million views.Her work with female anti-poaching rangers in Africa represents her most meaningful adventure because it combines real danger with genuine purpose beyond personal achievement.Despite feeling like an imposter during her master's degree, Holly earned the highest mark ever given because she discovered something she was truly passionate about.Having supportive parents who didn't push her but encouraged her to follow her interests allowed Holly to develop a natural drive and confidence to pursue unconventional goals, from competing in sports to skydiving professionally.Holly's golden nugget for goal-setting is to "Say it out loud and watch what happens." Voicing your goals to others gives them momentum, creates accountability, and transforms them from thoughts to actions—pushing you beyond your comfort zone where true growth happens. BEST MOMENTS "This 60 seconds of sheer terror completely changed the course of my life. I loved it and I wanted to go back up and do it again straight away. But nobody had told me that people were getting paid to jump out of perfectly good airplanes every day of the year." "I call this hanging onto my 21-year-old mindset, and now I'm 46 and I've kept trying to keep this mindset going over the last two and a half decades, and that's taken me on some pretty incredible sponsored adventures around the world." "These days, for me, it's all about adventure with purpose. I use adventure as a platform to raise funds and raise global media attention for a greater good than me jumping out of an airplane or me climbing a mountain." "Conservation without funding is just conversation. So it's about getting the money to the right places without the middleman." "When you've got your big audacious goal, say it out loud and watch what happens. The minute you voice it and you start chatting to people about it, it suddenly grows arms and legs, but in a really good way."

  • The Psychology of Sudden Wealth with Melissa Hoyer

    The Psychology of Sudden Wealth with Melissa Hoyer
    Apr 16 2025

    Doug talks about the complex world of inherited wealth with financial planner and life coach Melissa Hoyer. Melissa brings 20 years of expertise working with significant inheritances at The Wealth Conservancy. They explore the psychological challenges of sudden wealth, the importance of balance and setting meaningful intentions versus rigid goals. Melissa shares what she has learnt about the emotional integration of inherited wealth, why money magnifies existing patterns as well as how self-compassion plays a crucial role during life changes.

    KEY TAKEAWAYS

    • Inherited wealth arrives "like a meteor crashing into your world," requiring emotional, psychological, and spiritual integration alongside practical wealth management skills. This is a completely different experience than accumulating wealth yourself.
    • Money acts as a magnifier of existing patterns, those who tend toward luxury purchases will amplify this behaviour, while those uncomfortable with wealth might struggle even with small indulgences like buying the expensive coffee.
    • Inheritors face unique challenges including feeling they've missed out on career accomplishments, experiencing loneliness from keeping wealth private, managing complex financial situations and feeling dependent on systems they don't fully understand.
    • True work-life balance begins with a conscious decision to prioritise balance. Melissa likens it to creating a beautiful bouquet by being intentional about which flowers to include rather than trying to include everything.
    • Setting intentions allows for more spaciousness than rigid goals, creating room for flexibility while still maintaining direction toward desired outcomes.
    • During life changes, we experience chaos between our old normal and eventual new normal - practicing self-compassion during this phase helps us move forward.
    • For meaningful goal setting, create a space away from daily life where goals can emerge from excitement and heart's desires rather than fear or external pressure.
    • Many wealthy clients focus on philanthropy rather than extravagant lifestyles, channelling resources toward causes they're passionate about to create meaningful change in the world.

    BEST MOMENTS

    "When you accumulate it, you have a relationship with it, and when you inherit it, it's like this meteor crashing into your world and it's completely foreign."

    "Money is a magnifier oftentimes. I've worked with clients on the flip side who grew up with wealth, but they didn't embrace the wealth so they lived very well below their means."

    "My golden nugget about goal setting would be to, when you're setting goals, be in, I think of it as like an extraordinary space, go take a weekend away or give yourself some space and do it from a place of excitement, hopes, dreams, and allow that to fuel the goals."

    "It's a decision and I think of it like a, a field of beautiful flowers and you wanna make a, a beautiful bouquet of flowers and you really, you can't pick one of each because that would, that wouldn't be a bouquet."
