Catching The Octopus Podcast
by Niomi Hurley - Get Up and Grow Consulting
The ‘Catching the Octopus‘ podcast has been created as a platform to help leaders, business owners and achievers tap into the inner secrets to success. It aims to showcase not only successful strategies and mindset that lead to shifting from good to great, but also how influential our own inner connections are at propelling us there. Strategies and mindset give us clarity on what to do in order to achieve, but it is who we become that elevates us to the highest possible level. Although this is not a wellbeing podcast, it will touch on aspects of how success is not always just pushing forward, but also how it relies strongly on reflection inward. It will be reframing success and achievement to become more than just a desired shift from surviving to thriving and will focus on how we can develop a business, career or life that is flourishing in all aspects.
