Finding Freedom Through Choice With David Roberts
Description
Hazel is joined by David Roberts, CEO and founder of Business With Purpose. David shares his extensive experience in the business world, discussing his journey from taking a startup to eight figures, to mentoring other CEOs and investing in purpose-driven businesses.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
Purpose-Driven Business: Successful businesses should focus on solving customer problems and creating a positive impact, rather than solely prioritising profit. Reconnecting with the original purpose of the business is essential for sustained engagement and success.
Employee Engagement: A significant portion of the workforce is disengaged, which can negatively impact both employee satisfaction and business performance. Creating a workplace where employees feel valued, challenged, and part of a larger mission can enhance productivity and morale.
Leadership and Self-Awareness: Effective leadership involves understanding one's strengths and weaknesses, and being able to regulate emotional responses. Leaders should take responsibility for their actions and decisions, recognising that their behavior sets the tone for the entire organisation.
Focus on Priorities: Productivity can be maximised by identifying the most important tasks and completing them first. Utilising frameworks like the 12-week year can help individuals and teams maintain focus and achieve their goals more effectively.
Freedom as Choice: True freedom encompasses the ability to make choices about how to spend time and pursue one's purpose. This involves balancing necessary tasks with enjoyable activities, and recognising that freedom can evolve over time as personal and professional goals change.

ABOUT THE HOST
Having started her career as a professional, classical musician, Hazel de Kloe also had a personal quest to become financially free.
She and her husband built a successful, multi-million-pound property business, next to their own careers, but soon realised that true freedom doesn’t JUST come from being financially independent…
Having meant so much to her family, it has been her passion ever since, to inspire, educate and empower others on their journeys towards this 'Holy Grail'.
During one particular property mentoring session back in 2009, she had a powerful recognition of exactly how to facilitate this. Nicknamed now, The Wealth Whisperer, she has a unique way of getting to the crux of what is needed to help fulfil this quest.
