  • Managing Chronic Illness & Pain with Goal Setting with Athena Brownson

    Managing Chronic Illness & Pain with Goal Setting with Athena Brownson
    Jun 11 2025
    Athena Brownson, a former professional skier who competed for 14 years before becoming a top Denver realtor speaks to Doug in this episode. Athena talks about the challenges she faced after multiple surgeries and becoming chronically ill from lyme disease. She shares why the goal-setting techniques that made her an elite athlete became her lifeline through chronic illness and her approach in real estate. Doug and Athena also explore morning routines, Athena’s "greatness tracker" system, and how she transforms nervous energy into excitement. Athena and Doug give actionable strategies for approaching goals, especially when facing adversity. KEY TAKEAWAYS Tough coaching taught Athena consequences and accountability. Her coaches ensured there would be consequences if she wasn't following instructions or skiing to her fullest potential, teaching her resilience and showing up. Lyme disease took Athena from athletic peak to chronic pain, she was diagnosed eight and a half years ago, going from top athlete to barely getting out of bed with 10 out of 10 pain. Athena writes goals in present tense daily as part of her morning routine. She learned to write "I am healing, I am healthy, I am full of energy" even when those things weren't true, creating neural pathways in her brain. Athena created a greatness tracker system for weekly accountability, she prints out weekly action items including face to face meetings, phone calls, notes, open houses, events, plus health goals like gym visits and clean eating. Visualisation has always helped Athena achieve her goals. If she could visualise landing a trick she'd never tried in her head, she knew she could land it in real life; now she visualises sales and happy clients. Real estate requires the same mentality Athena had as an athlete, she believes you need "a little bit of psychosis" to succeed in real estate, the same type athletes have. Goal setting prevents Athena from going on disability despite chronic illnesses, most people in her position go on bed rest and disability, but if she did that she'd be so depressed it would be game over for he. Athena views manifestation as consistent goal-writing by hand, writing goals by hand tells your brain what's important and helps recognise opportunities, making manifestation practical. BEST MOMENTS "I've pretty much been setting goals since I came out of the womb, even if it was unintentional." "Half of the feat of reaching a goal is the simple act of showing up." "If I could visualise, if I could close my eyes, visualise myself landing a trick that I had never tried before, but I landed it in my head, I knew that I could land it in real life." "I reckon we could get rid of a certain amount of mental illness if we could get more people to be goal oriented." "When you're in the midst of adversity, it's actually the most important time to create goals and to create those actionable steps, because that is what is going to keep your mind engaged in a positive manner."

  • Why Your Mind is Like a Puppy (And How to Train It for Success) with Nikola Howard

    Why Your Mind is Like a Puppy (And How to Train It for Success) with Nikola Howard
    Jun 4 2025
    Doug has an inspiring conversation with Life Alchemist Nikola Howard, about turning personal struggles into business success. After dealing with her mother's death, chronic health conditions including polycystic ovaries and endometriosis, and years of business uncertainty, Nikola has created her mission: helping women with chronic conditions build sustainable businesses without burnout. From her award-winning HOPE protocol for nutrition to her new FLOW formula for business, Nikola shares her advice for goal setting, energy management and the power of being specific. KEY TAKEAWAYS Nikola shifted from being the UK's leading low-carb expert to serving women with chronic conditions in business after realising her most loyal clients shared these two characteristics and needed specialised support. Nikola sold her property to go all-in on her mission after years of managing her mother's illness and death. The HOPE protocol for nutrition, PATH for mindset work, and FLOW formula for sustainable business practices tailored to chronic conditions are three interconnected systems Nikola has created. Rejecting the 9-to-5 model, Nikola schedules high-energy tasks after 2 PM when she's naturally most productive. She works as a night owl and designs her business around energy patterns. Nikola has won 26 awards with her lifestyle approach, focusing on permanent change rather than temporary diets, emphasising adult choice and eliminating shame-based language around food decisions. She resisted goal setting for years, believing goals would trap her, Nikola only embraced them when she realised they're actually requests to the universe, not restrictions. Her business model prioritises collaboration over competition, incorporating feminine energies of cooperation and win-win outcomes rather than traditional masculine hustle culture that leads to burnout. Nikola's currently beta-testing her signature program and discovering it's more comprehensive than initially planned, requiring six months rather than nine weeks to properly serve her clients. BEST MOMENTS "The mind is like a puppy and it will run around all over the place. And our job as the thing in charge of our mind's puppy is picking up the puppy and bringing it back to where the focus is." "When you ask the universe what you want, it will give it to you. Might take a while. Sometimes it delivers sideways, but it will always manifest itself." "You can never be too specific. Would be my one goal setting tip." "We always, always overestimate what we are able to do in a year and seriously underestimate what we can achieve in five." "Never be scared of having a goal. Because when you have it, it can happen. But if you don't have it, you are just gonna wander along in your life on autopilot and things will happen to you rather than be caused by you."

  • The Two Simple Habits for Success with Neil Harvey of Airbnb Superhost

    The Two Simple Habits for Success with Neil Harvey of Airbnb Superhost
    May 28 2025
    Doug is joined by Neil Harvey, a compulsive creator who went from being a naval officer to Airbnb superhost, earning hundreds of thousands! Neil reveals the two simple habits that have created his success. From accidentally becoming a concert pianist to hosting 2,000+ strangers without incident, Neil's stories prove that adding value to others creates incredible opportunities. Doug and Neil also explore the universe's mysterious ways of rewarding kindness and the power of being very specific with your goals. KEY TAKEAWAYS Neil attributes his ‘luck’ or success to two things: adding value for others whenever you can and exchanging contact details with anyone you meet. It costs nothing to be kind and you don’t know when this kindness might come back to you. Neil’s big audacious goal is to create a training programme that can help others do what he does. He wants to share his knowledge and help those struggling financially to have the belief and confidence to get started in what he does. BEST MOMENTS “Always be very, very specific with what you wish for. In other words, how you set your goals.” “ I put it down to two habits. One is always try to add value to others whenever you can. However you can, wherever you can without any expectation of reward. And the second habit was exchange contact details with everybody you ever know." “ Just do these things, you know, be kind, be nice, give a little bit extra. It doesn't cost anything and you never know where it's gonna come back to you.”  ”It's about goals coming true. We are all empowered to help other people achieve their goals and when we do that without expectation of reward, reciprocity kicks in.” ABOUT THE GUEST Neil Harvey @SuperhostNeil https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/the-airbnb-superhost/id1733701622 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.
