Looking Inwards is a podcast about self-awareness, discipline, and personal growth. It focuses on taking ownership of your habits, mindset, and actions to become better in all areas of life. Each episode challenges you to think deeper, act with intent, and close the gap between who you are and who you want to be.
#58 - Dragged or Driven? Understanding Your Driving Force
Are you being dragged along by the expectations of others, or are you driven by something that genuinely matters to you?
In this episode of Looking Inwards, I explore the difference between being dragged through life and being driven by a deeper sense of purpose. Whether it's work, training, relationships or the expectations we place on ourselves, it's easy to become complacent, follow a path that no longer aligns with us, or chase a version of success that we never really wanted in the first place.
I discuss the role of ownership, adversity and self-awareness in understanding what drives us, why we sometimes hold on to things out of fear, and how we can reconnect with the interests and ambitions that give us a sense of fulfilment.
Because being driven doesn't mean everything comes easily. It's about understanding why you're doing what you're doing, taking responsibility for your direction, and recognising what makes the difficult parts worthwhile.
What is your driving force? And are you moving towards something you genuinely want, or simply being dragged along?

#56 - The Evidence You Keep Overlooking
How often do you question your ability to do something, without taking a moment to look at what you've already done?
In this episode of Looking Inwards, we explore the evidence we create throughout our lives, both through the challenges we face and the difficult things we choose to pursue. From overcoming adversity to preparing for opportunities, our experiences shape what we're capable of and how we perceive ourselves.
We look at the relationship between evidence, anxiety and self-doubt, the importance of being honest about the work we've put in, and why luck might have more to do with our own preparation than we initially think.
Your life is full of evidence. It's full of times that you keep showing up. That is every single damn day.
So, what is your evidence?
