'A greater perspective is worth 20 points of IQ' 

Life, Business Coach and Speaker Steve Straus openly admits that he doesn't know how to make you 20 points smarter, but he is highly skilled at unravelling something in you that can begin to offer you far more choices in your personal life and in your business. 

Steve was there at the very dawn of Coaching and had the honour of being coached by the man often termed the 'father of coaching' Thomas Leonard of CoachU and Coachville.  

For over 25 years Steve has been Coaching his clients towards success and if you are wondering what makes a good Coach a great Coach, then listen in as Steve shares how he got started and has helped hundreds of clients to grow their businesses in exponential ways and to achieve success in their personal lives too.  

Like any successful Coach, Steve was open to develop his skill set and the story he shares with us about discovering the power of the work of Tom Stone (EvolveExpress.com) lifts the lid on the tools he uses to enable people to move through their blocks with ease and grace.  

In 'Remembering Your Future' Steve shares a powerful exercise with us that takes us both (Beryl and Mel) into a space where we begin to glimpse pictures of what our future could look like.  

The enlightening aspect of this exercise is that you begin to realise that you really don't need to 'know' the 'how' of what you need to do to achieve your desires. Steve helps us to understand that we can 'employ' powers far beyond what the mind can conceive and fast-track ourselves towards success in any aspect of our lives.  

If you are thinking about a start-up business or wondering how to turbo-charge your business, it is important bring clarity and focus into play. Steve that when your 'inner landscape' is clear then your 'outer landscape' will begin to take form.  

Look out for more from Steve and us in the future!

Our uniqueness, our genius is just waiting to be discovered.  Michael Stratford is a Provocateur of Transformation, Author, Master Coach and International Speaker and shares with us his own transformational journey to unveil his Genius.  

Literally at the brink of taking his own life, he suddenly reconsidered what he believed to be true.  He began to question his judgemental thoughts of himself and crucially asked, 'What if I am wrong?'  This turning point resulted in him checking himself into a psychiatric unit and beginning the long road to emotional competence and discovering his unique gift that he had to share with the world. 

Each of us has that spark inside us that is yearning to burst into flame and let us shine our light.  Many of us are now 'waking up' to the truth that we are each of us bubbling with potential and that if only we can find a way to be released from our 'conditioning' from all those layers of beliefs that have kept us playing way to small... then we can fully blossom into the amazing beings we always were.

Michael jam-packs this interview with valuable nuggets of information.  So if you are ready to discover and embrace YOUR genius then listen in and begin that wonderful process of discovery. 

A 'divine world' is the dream and hope of all of us, however it takes some big steps towards making it happen and so many of us believe that as an individual we are powerless.  Well think again!  This young man is taking massive action towards creating a world that we can all be proud of. Author of the 'Inner Revolution' Luke Hancock went through what he calls a 'crash' of the emotional kind in order to become aware of what he really wanted to do to create meaning and purpose in his life.  

With some trepidation, he said goodbye to his executive corporate life and set out on his travels to clear his mind and make space for some paradigm shifts to happen. 

Time away from the western world and his travels around South East Asia aroused in him an acute awareness that humanity and the planet need to very soon discover a way to Thrive not just Survive.  His meandering around Asia alerted him to the fact that the new found wealth of these countries meant that its people were starting to become just as trapped as westerners, and allowing materialism to start taking control their lives.  

Luke and his partner Susana Norte, were literally about to board a plane to Thailand when we managed to pin Luke down for this interview.  Their mission is to set up an Eco-Centre dedicated to education, healing and sustainability.  Keen to implement permaculture, organic horticulture, free energy and other 'planet friendly' ideas, they are looking for volunteers to join them for hands on help and also Spiritual and Professional Leaders to run workshops from the centre from the Fall of 2014.  He is eager to hear from you if this appeals!

Well done Luke for following your heart and walking away from all that some would consider 'safe' to create something that has the potential to benefit so many, in so many ways.  The centre is to be named 'Mundos Divinos' - Divine World, and Luke has agreed to give us regular video updates on its progress. Worth a mention that regular holiday makers will be made very welcome too and can relax with delicious home grown organic food, and a dip in the pool. 

Listen in on our chat with him as we learn more about his amazing journey.

What are you hungry for?  Is the question that Leon Aarts asked himself when he had reached the top of his tree of as a restaurant owner and chef.  Aware that millions go hungry for food everyday he began ‘Fill The Cup’ as a way to end world hunger. Along the path he discovered that many are hungry for much more than food.  Leon shares his remarkable story.
