LifePilot: Be the CEO of your life, not just your business!

I’ve never been a big fan of over planning, of strategizing the night away, and getting lost in the detail.And I’ve always been in favour of less is more, keep it simple and being able to see your big vision on just one piece of paper.This is why I first developed the infamous ‘One Page Biz Plan’ template back in 2012 and have been using it ever since.Yes, shock horror, a lady who creates a tool and actually uses it herself, even if she did take a 6 month break from setting any business goals – which I also advocate for, when you’re really not feeling it.That was the case for me recently, so I just let myself not plan and instead focused on the impact I wanted to make, how I wanted to add value and show up in this world.Since that all fell into place in the last few months, I was able to write up my quarterly One Page Biz Plan on April 1st with new refreshing goals and objectives to make this a great 90 days.We all know it can be hard to get clear on our big picture vision and actually follow through with it, so my template helps you to break it down into what’s tangible and doable in the next 90 days.I literally walk you through what my next 3 months looks like for my business so you can have a crack at doing this too, using my free template.My process for setting my quarterly (and Annual) Business Plan goals and objectivesWhat my five big goals are for April-JuneWhat actions I (and my team) need to take to make each of those goals a realityWhy creating your one page business plan can take just half an hourHow to use my free 1 Page Business Plan template to crush your next 90 daysHow to keep momentum when the going gets toughGet my free 1 Page Business Plan template here to use yourself to make sure you crush Q2.If you want to know how to go about planning out your life goals as well as your work ones, tune in to Episode 12: The Simple Way To Crush The Next 90 Days Hosted on Acast.

Did you know that emotional intelligence (EQ) helps you handle emotions, connect with people, make good choices, and stay calm when life gets complicated?I’d say it’s one of the things I value most in people and yet up until recently, it’s been hugely underrated or misunderstood.That’s why I’m thrilled to be joined by emotional intelligence expert Robin Hills for a conversation that’s sure to change the way you approach relationships, decision-making, and even networking. What began as a simple chat about connecting with others quickly evolved into a deep dive into the power of understanding and managing our emotions. Whether you're looking to build better connections, improve your decision-making, or transform your networking skills, Robin offers powerful insights you can apply immediately to make more authentic, emotionally intelligent choices in your personal and professional life.Key Takeaways:The Essence of Emotional Intelligence: EI helps you make smarter decisions and build deeper connections by improving self-awareness, empathy, and emotional regulation.Transforming Networking: Authentic networking is about asking great questions and listening deeply, turning interactions into meaningful connections.Constructively Using Both Pleasant & Unpleasant Emotions: Use both positive and negative emotions as tools for growth rather than letting them derail your actions.The Power of Self-Reflection: Self-reflection boosts emotional awareness, enhances decision-making, and strengthens relationships. Connect with Robin at ei4change.com or on LinkedIn Robin HillsRead Daniel Goleman Emotional Intelligence Hosted on Acast.

I almost deleted the email that changed my year.There it was, sitting in my inbox while Josh and I were testing out our new standing desks in our Bali villa, a speaking invitation to Saudi Arabia that looked way too good to be true. And honestly? I thought it was a scam. But this is the story of how that "sketchy" email turned into me standing on stage as the only female keynote speaker at one of Saudi Arabia's largest entrepreneurship events, flying business class, staying at the Ritz Carlton, and getting paid to share a message I deeply believe in.More than that, it's about what happens when you plant seeds without knowing where they'll grow, when you show up with intention even when no one's watching, and when you stay open to possibilities that sound impossible. Because the real twist? The reason I got invited traced back to someone I'd spoken to six years ago and a manifestation practice I started at the beginning of 2025.If you’ve ever wondered how big opportunities actually happen, or felt called to think bigger about what’s possible for you in your work and life, this one’s for you.What You'll Learn:How a random email in my inbox turned into a dream speaking opportunity (and why I thought it was a scam)What Saudi Arabia is really like in 2025, the massive transformation happening, what surprised me most, and what I got totally wrongWhy being the only female keynote speaker felt like both a privilege and a responsibilityHow someone I spoke to six years ago became the reason I got invited and what that teaches us about showing up authenticallyWhat it's really like to speak on an international stage Why this trip reminded me that the world is more open, more curious, and more interconnected than we think Hosted on Acast.

I'm about to tell you something that might sting a little: in about three weeks, you're probably gonna be doing the exact same thing you did all last year.I know. You've got your goals. You've got your intentions. You're ready for a new year, new start, new you.But unless you've got a methodology that actually works, that niggly feeling you have right now? It's probably right.Here's what I realized after years of hitting some goals but always ending up back at baseline: I wasn't changing who I was in order to get what I wanted. And without that, nothing was ever gonna fundamentally shift.That’s why, I'm sharing the Annual Anchors Methodology, the framework that completely transformed how I approach my year. Instead of chasing 47 different goals, I focus on three foundational anchors that ground me in what actually matters. And it really works!.After listening, you'll understand why being comes before doing, how to choose your three most important priorities for the year, and you'll have a concrete roadmap to make this your most intentional year yet (without burning out or giving up by February).What You'll Learn:Why most goal-setting fails (hint: you're skipping the most critical step)The be → do → have framework that actually gets resultsHow I chose my three Annual Anchors for 2026 (and why my business isn't one of them)The exact structure: one anchor + one "so that" statement + three committed actions + a 90-day habit trackerWhy breaking up with my phone is already changing everything in just two weeksThe difference between reacting and responding, especially in your closest relationshipsWhat it means to prioritize intuition over hustle this year Hosted on Acast.

Freedom doesn’t come from having endless flexibility.It comes from knowing what matters and protecting it with intention.In this episode of the LifePilot Podcast, I sit down with Elizabeth Grace Saunders, one of the world’s leading time management experts and the founder of Real Life E®, for a grounded, honest conversation about time, boundaries, and self-worth.Elizabeth and I have known each other for over a decade — long before either of us were married or parents — and throughout the years, I’ve watched her quietly and consistently redefine what time management actually means. Not hustle. Not optimisation. But peace, presence, and intentional living.In this conversation, Elizabeth shares how she became a time management coach by first fixing her own unhealthy relationship with work, why most entrepreneurs struggle more once they leave corporate life, and how planning ahead is the thing that actually creates flexibility, not restriction.We also dive into motherhood, shifting capacity, lowering expectations without lowering standards, and navigating the rise of AI without losing your voice, creativity, or sense of worth.If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed by freedom, guilty when you rest, or stuck reacting instead of leading your life, this episode will bring clarity, calm, and perspective.What You'll Learn:Why the flexibility of entrepreneurship often drives us insane (and what to do about it)The "infinity pool" model that will revolutionize how you think about your timeThe top three time management challenges almost everyone faces but thinks are unique to themHow to translate your values into concrete actions on your calendar (not just vague intentions)What having two young children has taught a time management expert about lowering expectations and radical prioritizationThe surprisingly emotional reality of running a business in the age of AI (and why your human value matters more than ever) Hosted on Acast.
