The Anything Goes Podcast

Political Chat: Understanding Politics 101 & Legislation creation in Australia.

Having spent 4 years working for a Federal Member of Parliament, when I left that career behind at 25 and dove headfirst into Business, I thought it was all behind me. That was until bush fires ravaged our nation in January 2020 & I spoke up on how to make a legislative change with a video that went completely viral. 

 

I have always said, quietly behind the scenes, you can take the girl out of Politics, but you can't take politics out of the girl, and so, when we launched this podcast, I knew I would be able to keep educating as the questions roll into my inbox, and this is episode one, of the Political Chats we will get to have together.

How to Lead and build better Relationships based on your personality.

Several years ago, we learned about the colour code personality test from our mentor which blew our minds just to understand how we both operated but more so, to understand the motivations of others. Since that time, we have spent 7 years using this personality test growing, motivating & helping our team create what we believe is one of the best cultures on the planet, & we do that by understanding how people work & how they're motivated & how to get the best out of them based on their personality 'colour'. 

 

In this episode, we dive deep in to each colour area, Red, Yellow, Blue & White, and take you through each personalities core motives & natural talents, each personalities strenghts & weaknesses, & go in to depth on the "do's" and "do not's" when trying to strengthen any relationship with all personality types.

David T S Wood on how to live with more money, more success & more happiness.

 

David is a Master Coach and Mentor having trained over 1 million students around the world, & quite frankly, the master of living a kick-ass life of wealth, health, success, relationships & everything in between. He has been instrumental & the biggest mentor to both of us as we have navigated business, success, and speaking & embodies the ethos of living a life by absolute design. In this conversation, we get to hear how he has created the level of success he has, and how he encourages us to understand our inner thoughts are what create our outer world, and how we should all be living from a place of love - not fear.

DAVID'S BIO: 

Crazy, Rebel, Misfit, troublemaker, are a few of the adjectives that have been used to describe David T.S. Wood, some others are, humanitarian, pinnacle leader, multi-millionaire, adventurer, master educator, and goofball.

David is as comfortable leading a team to the 19,000ft summit Of Kilimanjaro,‘The Roof of Africa’, as he is brainstorming with billionaires about changing the world.

He has trained over “One Million” students from all corners of the world, and regardless of the venue,the language they speak or the duration of his program, his students ALWAYS describe him the same way: Fearless, transparent, authentic, hilariously funny, effective and life-changing.

His radical, non-apologetic approach is not for everyone; it’s definitely not for the faint of heart,or for the person who is not ready for change, the person who is content to sit on the sidelines and watch the game of life being played out in front of them by others who are tired of the status quo or playing by the rules.

David continues to work all over the world helping his students break through their fears, create freedom, and design extraordinary lives.

He likes to say however that his greatest accomplishment is being the proud father of his two son's Calvin and Ben.

 

Unsolicited Relationship Advice (after 15 years together).

We met when I (Anna) was 16 turning 17, and Morgan was 20 (turning 21) & have been in each other's lives ever since (aka 15 years). We started dating officially when I was 19, and Morgan was 23, and got married when we were 26 & 30 respectively. 

We fail forward relentlessly in our relationship, and in life, but we do it with a lot of love, a lot of fun, and often - a lot of success. So we wanted to jump on the mic to share the 5 things that make us & our marriage work better than ever 15 years in (completely unsolicited and unprofessionally of course).

 

EPISODE NOTES:

 

1:24 We are not qualified for this conversation

4:35 Trust

7:32 Radical Communication

13:44 Having Boundaries

20:26 Beliefs vs values.

23:18 Love yourself first.

Self-Love. What is it, & how to radically cultivate more of it in your life.

As a self-proclaimed Self-Love Ambassador, I candidly share how it certainly wasn't always that way. 12 years ago, at my personal rock bottom, self-medicating with drugs & alcohol & hating myself, I knew I had to radically change my life. But I hated myself, so where the hell was I meant to even begin? Listen in as I share how from that space of low to no worth, I moved to unconditionally loving myself & thriving in all ways - and I share how I believe no matter what stage you're at, you can too.

Busting the myths (& speaking the truth) of Network Marketing.

Maybe you have said it yourself but if you're in Network Marketing, you've definitely heard it before, it goes a little something like this. "I'm in Network Marketing" "oh is that one of those Pyramid Schemes". The short answer is absolutely not, but the longer answer along with tonnes of other objections & myths that surround the profession of Network Marketing is exactly what we dive in to deep on this podcast. Be warned though, we certainly don't sugar coat it - and we ourselves talk about what IS wrong (but also what is so so right) with our profession. 

 

We record this podcast, having been in the Network Marketing profession ourselves for over 7 years now and having come from very successful corporate careers prior.
