The Steven Sulley Study is my take on success. My view is you should have multiple focuses to be a well-rounded individual. Success shouldn't be just one thing like money, for example, it should also consist of a healthy fit lifestyle and thriving relationships. As a person who has made a success in life and also made huge cock-ups I feel I can offer suggestions and tips on how to become successful or at least start your pursuit. My 'Study' has taken resources from reading and education plus being around, my perception, of successful people and I, know a lot of successful people from all walks of life. My 'Study' coming from my experiences in business, investing, sales (my core background), training, boxing and education has enabled me to become well rounded and successful and I will help you in these key areas too.
Steven talks to star, Jamie Jewitt, about everything from sports to personal health and the impact of social media.
Jamie shares his journey from being a model and reality TV star to focusing on his health and fitness, discussing his experiences with various diets, including his current carnivore regimen, and the significant improvements he's seen in his physical and mental well-being
Key Takeaways
- There is a strong link between physical health and mental well-being. Improving one's diet can lead to significant improvements in mood, motivation, and overall health.
- Following a carnivore diet has led to remarkable health improvements, including alleviation of digestive issues and joint pain, as well as increased energy and strength.
- Social media can perpetuate superficial values and create a culture of comparison and negativity. It can also manipulate narratives, influencing public perception and behaviour.
- Both unhealthy and healthy lifestyles are choices. The default setting in modern society often leans towards unhealthy habits, but individuals have the power to change their circumstances and improve their health.

Oliver joins Steven to talk about his racing career and why he is drawn to the need for speed, his many business interests and why diversifying your income is vital, and his personal formula for life and happiness.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
- The dangers involved in high-risk sport are alluring to those who like to live on the edge. They also prohibit just anyone from taking part, which turns its practitioners into an elite crowd.

- While electric cars are certainly a cleaner way forward, cars seem to be losing their identity with the public at large, who are tending towards public transport and cleaner vehicles, at the cost of supercars and their desirability.
- Honest is the best policy in business. You need people who will not be afraid to tell you when something's wrong, or steer you towards a more successful outcome.

- If you leverage pain in a positive way, then there is no limit to the potential you can achieve. If you don't have painful experiences, then you can't call yourself experienced enough to help others.
- The greatest entrepreneurs are the ones who recognise optimism as the best fuel in life. There are no such things as downturns if you remain positive - a challenging time for some is always an opportunity for the greatest thinkers.
- Instead of moaning about why you can't achieve success, you should instead be asking the question "What problem can I solve?"
BEST MOMENTS
'I should never have to worry about having an income again, which now gives me the chance to do what I want to do'
'Bad luck can have a good luck element to it'
'You've got to be an optimist to be a success'
'The bigger the test the more opportunity'

He is also the author of several books designed to accelerate our thought potential, including his world-renowned system known as "The DeMartini Method", which the world's great thinkers have adopted in order to "create new perspectives and paradigms in thinking and feeling".
Dr DeMartini joins Steven to talk about the ways in which he helps his followers to maximise their potential and create life-changing results through the power of self belief and creativity.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
- The grand pursuit of Dr DeMartini is to discover everything there is to know about maximising human potential and promoting creativity that changes the world.
- People who self govern do not find themselves living in an impulsive, reactive state, but a state of mastery and authenticity.
- The DeMartini institute is deeply involved in researching human behaviour and disseminating the information it gathers. The DeMartini Method teaches users how to turn chaos into order.
- The formal education system works to a point, but there is no substitute for practical experience and getting out there to discover yourself in the real world.
BEST MOMENTS
'For the last fifty years I've been interested in learning and then sharing anything to do with maximising human awareness and potential'
'I'd rather self govern myself'
'If you stay a victim of history then you'll never be a master of destiny'
'I've done more research on my own than I ever did in formal schooling'

Harlem Eubank is one of the most dazzling talents in British boxing today, as well as a respected member of the Eubank sporting dynasty.
In the second part of his conversation with Steven, he discusses the factors that have driven him to become the most unstoppable force in boxing, the crucial differences between boxing and other forms of sporting combat, and how the loss of a valued family member has shaped the course he's taken and the man he has become.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
- Perseverance is the key to progression. Things don't always work out, so you have to push through and onwards in order to grow.
- Many put the mixed arts of MMA and boxing together, as though they're similar disciplines, but boxing is a force all its own. The stances used for MMA mean that not as much power can be transferred through blows.
- Those we love and cherish never truly leave us. If their influence was powerful enough in life, then the conversations will continue internally forever.
- Being part of a boxing dynasty means that inevitably, a conflict of interest can sometimes occur. But family always must come first, and respect is something we should embrace at all times.
BEST MOMENTS
'You do seem like you're going to be an unstoppable force'
'Things don't come overnight, but with perseverance and hard work and dedication, things will work out the way they're meant to'
'It's a fight I would love. A fight I would relish. A fight I'd be very confident in'
'Family always comes first'

Steven is joined by entrepreneur and renowned art collector, Mike Greene, who talks about his philosophy behind the creations he's drawn to, his foray into the world of television and what spurred him on to want to do it, how life has changed since fame has found him, and his take on how the press have shaped the way we see the world - and not always positively...
KEY TAKEAWAYS
- Sometimes we are drawn to an object in a more fundamental way when we connect with the story or narrative behind the piece.
- When you establish a public persona, it can come with drawbacks. But people can also feel a sense of kinship and that they know you better, which can serve you in positive ways.
- There is no such thing as failure, because even when we're down, we're learning about ways in which we can stay victorious for next time.
- The press feed the world with headlines and "facts" designed to snag our attention and divert us from matters that could change the world if we focussed properly.
BEST MOMENTS
'The romance or the story behind things connects me on a different level'
'I buy into what they were trying to achieve, or what they were thinking at the time'
'I would always rather be wealthy and unknown'
'Failure breeds success'

Lewis Raymond Taylor is a prime example of standing your ground and never taking no for an answer. After surviving a traumatic childhood filled with abuse of all kinds, Lewis chose to fight back, promising himself that life could be different if he took back control.
Since then, Lewis has overcome his own personal demons and has risen up to become one of the world's most inspiring mindset coaches, preaching the message that if he could turn his own ruinous life around then anyone can. In this episode, Lewis talks candidly to Steven about the incredible business he's built in order to empower others, what it takes to come back from the blackest hells, and how you can turn any kind of negative into positivity and light.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
- When we are lacking in certain types of love, we compensate by throwing ourselves into other things. A lack of nurturing thus often leads to negative beginnings in life.
- If we don't take control of life then nothing will ever change. We need to understand that doing the same thing again and again will only produce the same result.
- Change comes slowly. Take it one step at a time and move forward in small ways and before you know it you'll be in a totally different way and shape.
BEST MOMENTS
'We help people build freedom based online coaching courses'
'I liked people thinking that I was crazy'
'I kept doing the same things over again and expecting a different result'

Steven talks to Harvey and Jacob, the trailblazing, entrepreneurial maestros known as The Kettle Kids, best known for their luxury offerings, such as watches and jewellery.
The Kettle Kids talk about how they turned a £1000 loan from a family member into a thriving, affluential brand, why watches have become one of the safest and most sought after investment classes in the world, and the strengths that both brothers bring to the partnership.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
- Watches and jewellery are a statement of intent. They also act as a way of grouping you into an elite class of winners, who instantly recognise each other.
- The best way to invest in a luxury class is to buy something you like, then if it rises in value that's a bonus. If it doesn't, you still own something you love.
- The finest partnerships are the ones in which each person brings something different. If you have a partnership where everyone has the same strengths, you dilute yourselves. if each is stronger than the other at one aspect, you exponentially grow in strength.
- Success isn't all about luck or youth. Authenticity matters more than you think. People are drawn to people they can relate to, and if they feel a sense of trust.
BEST MOMENTS
'We like to take risks'
'Buy something you love. If it goes up in value, that's a bonus'
'We believe in manifestation. Everything we have said before we've achieved'
'Keep the mindset. Don't let the money take over you - don't let it change you'

Dumi Oburota is the founder of Disturbing London, which although operates primarily as a record label, also has arms in brand consultancy, artist management, event management, music publishing and a fashion label.
Dumi joins Steven for a second round conversation about the value of communication, the intersection between art, music and fashion, and how his business of culture has changed across the last few years.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
- When we lose time, it makes us appreciate more fully the world around us and the people who mean the most to us.
- If you communicate on a comprehensive scale with the world at large, instead of sticking to what and who you know, then you increase your reach and profoundly impact the success you'll have.
- Boxers are like warriors, and their art is based on respect and skill. It's a pursuit that is gradually gaining more and more admiration from all corners of society due to the discipline involved.
- You have to follow your gut instincts when it comes to finding talent. Use your intelligence, sense of purpose and swagger, and see how it aligns with the same qualities in someone else. This is how you spot the stars of tomorrow.
BEST MOMENTS

Steven talks to business mastermind and car-dealing legend, Tom Hartley - otherwise known as The Dealmaker - about his inspiring rise to success, one which defied the logic of society.
Tom tells the tale of his youth as a boy who escaped the system to pursue a dream of affluence, and who achieved it through resilience, grit, sacrifice, and a supernatural talent for business.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
- Just because you have your back against the wall in terms of societal expectations, never write yourself off. Tom is a living example of defying the odds and coming out fighting.
- Belief and confidence in yourself can be the determining factor between failure and success. When you hit the bottom, believe in yourself enough to climb back up to the top.
- There is always an element of sacrifice when it comes to success, but these are only temporary things. Sacrificing things in your youth can help you to maximise the gifts later in life.
- When you're hungry in the business world, it can be tough to stop as the momentum you build behind you pushes you forward. A true entrepreneur never really wants to stop.
BEST MOMENTS
'By the time I was 17 I was a millionaire'
'I had to break a lot of rules in life to get to where I was'
'For every upside there's a downside in life'
'The one great thing to have in life is confidence'

- Passion assets are an indestructible way to ensure that your money achieves long term growth. Art, in particular, has become one of the finance sectors most trusted safe havens.

- Founding a business is only a small part of changing your life for the better. The real trick is knowing when to exit and start something else.

Steven talks once more to Charlie Mullins OBE, the founder of Pimlico Plumbers, London’s largest independent plumbing company, about his life in business, the life-changing, nine figure exit he achieved when he sold the company, what matters more to him - the OBE status or the fortune he's built - when to be ruthless in business and what the future holds for one of Britain's most successful business minds.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
- Honours are incredible to receive, but they don't pay the bills. Always look out for the money before you go seeking awards. Money keeps you company throughout life.
- It's fine to be sharp in business, but you don't have to be mean to people. Treat the world well and it'll treat you well in return.
- Promoting yourself is vital. It’s no good offering the best service out there if no one knows you exist. There’s a reason why the most successful shops are on the high street. It’s all about recognition.
- Work on retaining customers. It’s the stalwart customers who help businesses through tougher times. Word of mouth will follow, which will grow the business in itself.
- The idea of providing a valuable service isn’t new. Charlie’s own viewpoint on this, though, is in the finesse. His employees are smart, courteous, punctual and always make sure the customer feels taken care of. It is this strategy that has led to his becoming so successful.
- There's no denying that the current government has a tough job ahead. There doesn't seem to be any backbone or strength in politics these days. We need a return to honesty.
BEST MOMENTS
'My eye is always on the ball and looking for something new'
'The OBE is lovely but it doesn't pay the bills'

Mark Wright is the co-founder (with Lord Alan Sugar) of digital marketing agency, Climb Online, having been crowned champion on BBC's The Apprentice, and winning a life-changing contract that has since turned him into a multi-millionaire. Mark has also gone on to be named Entrepreneur Of The Year in 2018, and one of Forbes 30 Under 30, staking his claim as one of the most visionary and innovative business minds currently operating in the world.
Mark joins Steven for the second time to talk about how life has changed since their last conversation, how fatherhood has shifted his perspective, how he turned a simple £173 into a ten figure fortune, and why the power of sales should be a primary lesson for any entrepreneur.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
- When you aspire to being in a place in the world, you have to insert yourself whether you're invited or not. Put yourself in the place you wish to end up.
- Money is all very well, but the real power comes from the profile boost you gain when you hit true success. When people know who you are, it makes life far easier.
- Never chase money. Don't make it your mission in life. Chase what makes you happy and gives you purpose. You'll live a far happier life, and money will come as a byproduct.
- There's a huge link between the mindsets required by professional sportsmen and successful business operators. They all need resilience, discipline, focus and purpose.
BEST MOMENTS
'You've got to be where you want to be - fake it till you make it'

For over two decades, Ruben Tabares Wellness has worked with elite sportspeople, ultra high net worth business owners and extremely talented individuals to help turn their wellness dreams into reality. With a hunger for results, he has developed a long-standing reputation as one of the leading wellness providers in the world.
Ruben joins Steven for the second time to talk all about his incredible achievements since their previous discussion, how we truly measure health, the murky world of dietary gurus and how you can circumvent the false prophets who sell a dream but don't practice what they preach, and how you can take the fundamental steps towards true wellness by giving your body the best chance possible.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
- Measuring health is always a personalised process that depends deeply upon the person - their current state and what they are hoping to achieve.
- Social media is a gift in terms of inspiring people to want better for themselves. But we must be mindful that the images we see out there do not always correlate with reality.
- The body will tend to ignore synthetic forms of nutrients, and instead opt to better absorb natural, whole foods. This is why natural forms of macros such as protein are always preferable.
- We are often wary of cutting out completely the things that we're used to, such as sugar. But if you're dedicated enough, and truly desire wellbeing, then the gains are monumental, and the body soon learns to not crave these things.
BEST MOMENTS
'I wake up every single day and I feel like I'm in the body of a twenty year old'
'They still had to go through training and sacrifice in order to look like that'
'The body performs an electric light test'
'It's about having the dedication to what you're doing, and what you believe in'

Steven talks once more to Alfie Best, the businessman and philanthropist who in 2019 made the Sunday Times UK Rich List, and who is currently the chairman of Wyldecrest Parks, among many other property and business ventures. Alfie has built his empire through honesty, bravery, and most of all confidence, and has recently been named the "first billionaire gypsy in the UK".
In his own unmistakably candid style, Alfie discusses the route he took to become one of the most powerful businessmen in the world, and why confidence is the key to living your dreams.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
- No one should go into business without a plan. It can be as simple as you like, but you need a clear intention. Alfie’s intention is simplicity and hard work.
- Thinking with the right mindset is the key to achieving billionaire status. You have to think with a wealth mindset and not a poor mindset.
- The benefit of sharing your story gives you many gifts. It enhances your public profile, it teaches others that anything is achievable, and it allows you to help others to start their own journeys to success.
- Take your advice from people who know what they’re talking about. Don’t listen to people who haven’t walked the path before you. Listen to the voices of true experience.
- To achieve confidence in your business, make sure you understand your product and your topic. But most importantly, develop the ability to listen.
BEST MOMENTS
'Likeminded people always flock together'
'I'm a real billionaire. I can justify it, explain it, and it's checkable'

Carl Hartley is the co-owner and director of the Tom Hartley supercar dealership, which since 1973 has blazed a trail in the world of aspirational automobile ownership.
Carl has been an integral part of the business since the age of 12 years old when he left primary school in order to focus his life upon the family brand, and in this episode, he talks candidly to Steven about where he finds the extraordinary drive that has catapulted him to the pinnacle of business success, why the luxury market has thrived even during economic downturns, and how he and his family have turned their name into one of the mightiest brands in the world.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
- Social media has meant that the aspirational lifestyle has been overdone slightly in terms of promotion, meaning that there has been an impact in what it means to own a luxury car.
- If you want to hit the bigger goals in life you have to be moving constantly. Don't ever sit back and assume you've reached the finish line - keep going.
- There are certain intangibles that Tom Hartley provide that other dealers simply cannot match - price and terms are a huge part, but the actual purchasing experience is second to none.
- The luxury brands have proven time and time again that even during the most turbulent financial times, they are a safe haven for investment. Even during COVID, the luxury sector thrived and attracted incredible amounts of investment.
BEST MOMENTS
'I never stand still long enough to look at the view'
'The name Tom Hartley has become more than a dealership - it is a brand'
'We operate in a way that nobody else can operate'
'London in the summer is like a car show'

Tommy Mallet first found fame appearing on reality TV show ‘The Only Way is Essex’, but through a combination of drive and passion about footwear, he built his own business from scratch in 2015 under the Mallet name, which has seen ever-increasing success ever since.
Tommy joins Steven to talk about the value of giving back, the power of branding and what it can do for your profile, why we should always be on a mission to inspire, as well as his personal struggles with factors such as ADHD, and how he's conquered these challenges in order to get to the top.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
- When we give, we receive tenfold. Those who are at the top of their game still give back, because it means that goodwill is being distributed above and beyond a product or service.
- Every lesson we learn in life comes from defeating a challenge of some kind. Each time we do that we add a new chapter to the story we're building through life.
- When you're in business you have to keep your eye on the ball, and your path straight towards your goal. Don't be distracted by what other people are doing.
- Work and home are two different things, and striking the perfect balance is tough. If you manage to do it, your goals become clearer and the harmony leads to life happiness.
BEST MOMENTS
'The greatest way to receive is by giving'
'One this I like doing is making sure I inspire people'
'I don't compare myself to nobody'

Dean Forbes has been named one of the UK’s 50 most ambitious business leaders by Lloyds Banking Group and The Daily Telegraph. He was also named in the J.P.Morgan sponsored Powerlist 2021, 2022 and 2023 as one of the 100 most influential Black people in the UK.
Dean joins Steven for a frank discussion about business, motivation, resilience, the power of victory, and how he's become one of the most powerful alphas in the business game.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
- The only thing that ever really matters in business is achieving the outcome you came for. Winning is everything.
- Your network directly impacts the level of success you have. If you surround yourself with the best, you will be the best - it's that simple.
- If you feel threatened by things and show it, then people won't respect you. The power of an alpha shines through if they can shake off the fear and show strength.
- If all you're chasing is money then prepare to be disappointed. Most businesses fail, so wealth creation is not guaranteed. There has to be another reason for business hunger.
BEST MOMENTS
'The only thing that counts is the victory'
'I would attribute the vast majority of my success to the people in my life'
'That's an important part of being an alpha - not to feel threatened'
'Be positive about disappointment'

In this episode, Amy joins Steven to discuss how life has changed since becoming a television superstar, and what life looks like in her dazzling future.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
- Some chances only come along once in a lifetime, and you're doing yourself a disservice if you don't take them. Be open minded and learn to say yes.
- When fame hits, it's vital you keep your feet on the ground because fame is a fleeting thing. You can be flavour of the month and then forgotten. Surround yourself with good, grounded people and be humble.
- When it comes to shaping your own brand, always go with your instinct. If something doesn't feel right then don't pursue it, as it's evidence that values are clashing somewhere along the line.
- Life is a one shot thing, and it's short. be happy and treat every day as though it's your last. Never assume you'll live forever and take every chance that comes along.
BEST MOMENTS
'It was one of life's experiences, so I thought why not?'

Kieran joins Steven to talk about not just his career in sport, but also his second act in life as a watch investor and dealer, and the value of stepping out of your comfort zone to maximise your gains in life.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
- You never get anywhere if you stay in one place. You have to push forward, challenge yourself, and look for new ways to get uncomfortable, That's how you grow.
- The people who invest in art are usually the kinds of people who invest in watches. They know that putting their money into something that will grow in value is the wisest move they can make.
- Time, as a concept, is worth celebrating. Investing in a luxury timepiece is a way of not just noting that time is important to you, it also marks you out as one of life's connoisseurs.

Leah Shutkever is a YouTuber and competitive eater whose unique brand of content has been taking the world by storm. Leah is the holder of 27 world titles in speed eating, but her rise to fame has also been blasted by some areas of the media, who accuse her of promoting gluttony.
In this episode, Steven talks to Leah, and finds out not just how she manages to consume so many calories at once, how she challenges the stereotypes surrounding the world of competitive eating, and also how she manages her increasingly popular public profile in the face of controversy.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
- Competitive eating doesn't necessarily mean that practitioners gain weight. It's about managing the calories you take in and put them to good use.
- As your public profile rises so too does the pressure from audiences - in some cases negatively. It's an unfortunate place to be, but as your fame rises, so too do the trolls come out to play.
- Food is a place where we bond with others. It's a safe space in which we connect and inspire. Food should not be feared.
- The key to success is to love yourself and be comfortable in what you do. When you find peace in yourself, you create happiness.
BEST MOMENTS
'Food, to me, is a very important aspect of life'
'You do have to be very controlled in yourself and not panic'
'I have been trying to understand myself how people see competitive eaters'
'It opens up a floodgate of people assuming that you're a way you may not be'

LDN Muscle was founded by entrepreneurial twin brothers, James and Tom Exton, who sough to create a steroid and photo-shop free approach to health, wellbeing and fitness, and promote a healthy, enjoyable and sustainable way to transform within a community of like-minded thinkers.
Co-founder James joins Steven to talk about his ethos, his mission, what it takes to achieve your wellbeing dreams, and how to succeed and exceed ethically in business.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
- If something doesn't work then move on to something else. You never know until you try, so never be afraid to experiment.
- When you build trust, you build a potential client base. If people like you and trust your voice, then when you start to monetise, they'll already be far more accommodating.
- Building a business is a tricky, sometimes nervous affair, but once you hit the point where you're able to sustain yourself, then it's worth going all in.
- The baseline of life is health. if we can achieve that then everything on top is a bonus and something to be grateful for.
BEST MOMENTS
'You don't know if something won't work until you try'
'That then became something that was self-motivating'
'That was a lightbulb moment'
'Once your plate is spinning on a stick and it's stable - that's the moment!'

Pierce O'Leary is one of the most exciting pro-boxers in the game today - currently undefeated and with a heart full of dreams and destinations when it comes to the career ahead of him.
Pierce joins Steven to talk about his fascinating life, his goals, his aspirations, and roads towards which he's heading in life.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
- The words you use and the things you say can either make you or destroy you. Sometimes words are more powerful than actions.
- You have to face the consequences of your actions if you're trying to take shortcuts towards success. If you don't stick to the straight and narrow, you have to be prepared to face the music.
- There's a misconception amongst young people entering the world of sports. Just because you're in that world doesn't mean you're instantly set for life. You have to work hard and play the long game.
- You can often gauge the level of success that you can expect, by the self-belief you hold on to. If you can be at the bottom and still come out fighting, then chances are you're going to do well
BEST MOMENTS
'Boxing is a dangerous sport. You can go out there and kill someone'

Jay Cannon is the CEO and owner of The Cannon Run, which he describes as "package holidays for petrolheads" and which is renowned for bringing people together from all walks of life in order to create unique shared experiences.
Jay joins Steven to talk about his mission, the power of bringing people together, and how he overcame true adversity in order to create one of the world's leading brands.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
- The fascinating thing about bringing people together for a shared love, is that you get so many diverse people who would never have met in their own circles.
- Creating a brand is about establishing your name and what you do, so that you become the unique solution to someone's needs.
- When times look tough and when the outlook is bleak, sometimes the best strategy is to go harder and higher. With challenge comes great opportunity.
- The best way of marketing your business is in person. If you're out there pushing every day, then you will grow much faster.

Kidd Waya comes from a long line of survivors, entrepreneurs and business-minded people who think outside of the box, and who aren't afraid to put themselves out there in their quest for success.
This week, listen as he joins Steven to talk about his story, his connection to art, and also the story of his own struggles with self-acceptance and how he used the pains of his past to carve out his own route through life.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
- The true artists of the world are the ones who step outside of the formula and do their own thing. You can't plot new paths in this world unless you go off the beaten track.
- Self-acceptance is the key to personal happiness. But breaking free of the self-loathing we secretly have is tough. Breaking free is everything.
- Television doesn't always reflect reality, despite the "Reality TV" tag that gets applied to these kinds of shows. You're always performing, on and off screen.
- Legacies don't always have to be business related. Sometimes the love you leave behind is far more long-lasting and impactful.
BEST MOMENTS
'He wanted to live the life that he wanted to live'
'When you're stuck in that prison, where you're not happy with yourself, it's very hard to get out'
'People need to understand how powerful it is to free yourself'
'I would choose this life a million times over'

Brandil Benson is a true hero. Not only has she overcome a serious battle with cancer, she's also shaped a career as a writer, speaker and entrepreneur, as well as completed a career in the military.
Brandil talks about her incredible life which began in poverty, the perilous challenges and discrimination she faced during her time in the military, and the terrifying story of her battle with cancer and how she's turned her scars into stars.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
- The effects of poverty last much longer than the hunger or the hardship. The mental scars it makes upon us last a lifetime and often spur us on to want more, and to do better.
- Being a woman in the military can be a scary prospect, especially as you are placing your life and wellbeing in the hands of people who may not want the best for you.
- Many assume that cancer can only form in main organs, but any part of the body can act as a breeding ground. Always be vigilant, and always get suspicious things checked out.

Jo Elvin has worked across a vast landscape of iconic global magazines including as the award-winning editor of You Magazine, and Glamour magazine. Jo's other positions in high-profile media corporations include publicist and writer, and have marked her out as one of the UK's true trailblazers when it comes to shaping the way we see life upon the pages of magazines.
Jo joins Steven to talk about her secret sauce when it comes to creating a media empire, the surprising rise in strong feelings that she's seeing from the public when it comes to reactions to stories, and the fascinating story of her career so far.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
- A sense of humour is critical when it comes to fashioning any kind of publication that you want the public to latch onto.
- Working in the industry allows you a rare insight into the stories that the public is fascinated by, but you can't always let those details slip.
- The public find themselves almost frenzied by the stories of people in the public eye. Sometimes it can create violent sentiment, and even factions that argue with one another.

Hamzah Sheeraz is a professional boxer who's applied the lessons from the ring to the world of business in order to become a champion in both worlds.
Hamzah joins Steven to talk about what it means to be winner, the transferrable lessons between the pursuits of business and sport, the ins and outs of the boxing world and the fighters and managers that have shaped his path so far, and how instinct and mindset have shaped the success he has found.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
- When you surround yourself with people who support you, then you can never really fail. They pick you up when you fall, and set you back on the road to success.
- The futures you build are sometimes shown to you through instinct. It's about following the things you love, and looking for a way to become the greatest in that field.
- Loyalty counts for a lot in the world today. If someone helps you towards your goals, your instincts should guide you towards being there for them in return.
- Teams in sport invest millions of pounds in ensuring that they are at their peak, physically. These investments can produce empires and outcomes unheard of, but there is secrecy around the subject.

No one knows more about what it takes to pull yourself back from life's darkest moment. In 2000, Kevin Hines was moments away from death, after climbing the Golden Gate Bridge and jumping in order to commit suicide.
Since pulling himself back from the brink, Kevin has devoted his life to helping others to realise their potential, acting as speaker and author, and instilling hope and healing to bruised souls around the world. In this very special episode, Kevin sits down with Steven to share his incredible story.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
- No child should have to go through serious trauma and poverty. Those that do seem to spend a lifetime trying to overcome the scars of their pasts.
- not everyone is born resilient, but if you can learn to control the things within your grasp, and hold on to gratitude, even as the pain bites at you, then you can learn to survive.
- Being alive at all is such a wondrous elusive happenstance. When you're here, you should relish every moment and count yourself lucky.
BEST MOMENTS
'I lost my mind at the age of seventeen and a half'
'Kool Aid, sour milk and Coca Cola was my first diet'
'If I can control it, and hold gratitude inside my pain, then I can survive it, and so can anyone else'

This week, Steven talks once again to entrepreneur, boxer, and star of Absolutely Ascot, Alfie Best Jr, this time to talk about next chapters and how success compounds, what drives him in life and how motivation and drive are more important than qualifications, and how the power of words can be used to build or topple empires.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
- For some people, qualifications are very important. But in most cases, simply having the drive to do something is enough to get you there.
- Having goals can keep the fires burning inside of you, even during the tough times. Having something to aim at is the fuel behind true drive.
- Calculated risks are crucial if you want to break through barriers and take success to the next level. There's only so far you can go if you play it safe.
- Social media has a sinister way of taking something that someone has said and re-contextualising a statement in order to provide shock value. We need to hear everything and then judge for ourselves.
BEST MOMENTS
'To work for yourself, you don't need qualifications. You just need to want to do it'
'You've always got to look at what's next'
'I'm young, and I'm willing to take more risks'
'I haven't got big boots to fill, because I'm not trying to fill them. I'm going to walk right past them'

Big John has a lot to be proud of. Not only is his son, Johnny Fisher one of the leading lights in the boxing world, but "Big John" himself has also become a celebrity in his own right after going viral on Tiktok with his catchphrase "Bosh!" and his documented love for Chinese food.
Big John joins Steven today for a heartfelt chat about life in the limelight, the pride he has in his family, and how he's managing the fact that he himself is being mobbed on the streets by an all new generation of fans. He might even find time to squeeze in a cheeky takeaway...
KEY TAKEAWAYS
- Taking yourself too seriously is never the answer to a happy life. You need to be able to step outside the serious side of life and laugh at yourself in order to be happy.
- Everyone makes mistakes, but with the rise of social media as a way of life, the wrong words can lead to a banishment from which it's difficult to return. Finding a balance between free speech and offence is tricky and hasn't been solved yet.
- People underestimate the value of authenticity when it comes to building a social presence. People are drawn to real people.
- No one is invincible. We may think that we have plenty of time to make up for being absent, but life can be snatched away in an instant, so always let the people you love, know that you love them.
BEST MOMENTS
'Life's hard. We've all had ups and downs, but if you can't have a laugh along the way, then what's the point?'
'You should be able to express who you are'
'I know what I like!'
'Nothing comes to my head, because as quick as it comes, it's going to go. Just enjoy it'

Jay Bothroyd is an ex-professional footballer with a glittering career that spanned across the 21st century, including stints for Coventry City, Wolverhampton, Cardiff City and QPR.
Jay talks to Steven about the pressures of fame and the effect upon your life when you live in the public eye, how mental health issues can affect your performance at the highest level, and how the world of football has changed for better and worse.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
- You gain far more respect, especially from your peers, when you deal with tribulation and setbacks in a more reserved manner.
- Many assume that professional footballers are happy just because they earn staggering amounts of money, but this isn't true. Most do it for the love of the game, which is why, if they're unhappy on the pitch, then it can prove devastating to their mental health.
- The world of football earning has changed dramatically. It used to be that you were paid well if you performed well. Nowadays, you're paid well if they believe you might perform well one day.
BEST MOMENTS
'Can you be that depressed if you're worth $500 million? Of course you can'
'Money can't buy you happiness'
'I'm a real product of my environment'

Many categorise Dapper Laughs as just a comedian, but as well as the comedy, he's also an inspirational presence, entrepreneur and mover-and-shaker. Dapper Laughs - otherwise known as Daniel O'Reilly - joins Steven on this episode to talk about the role the media has played in his career, how he fought back to overcome addiction and heartbreak, his entrepreneurial roots, and how he's used his humble beginnings to propel himself upwards and onwards in not just the world of comedy, but also in the sprawling, varied world of business.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
- We're all sales people, no matter what our position in life is. Sometimes all we're trying to do is sell an image of ourselves, or an idea, but we're always looking for ways to make that pitch land.
- The only thing that separates the great comedians from the ones who give up, is the ability to take the hard knocks and come back fighting. Sometimes all you need is grit and willpower in order to make it.
- The media are always trying to spin every story to be a sensational one. They'll twist any situation into a scandal in order to sell papers or get clicks.
- Sometimes you need to lose everything in order to gain a real perspective on life, and fully appreciate the things you have. When you hit rock bottom, and you're on your back, then the only way forward is upwards.
BEST MOMENTS
'I was business before I was comedy'
'Everyone in the world, no matter how old or young you are, we're all sales people'
'You have to lose everything first in order to really appreciate life'
'You should only apologise for something if you meant any malice'

Isaac Hayden has been blazing a trail through the world of professional football since his breakout through the Arsenal youth academy. He now plays for Norwich on loan from Newcastle, and continues to wow with each appearance.
Isaac joins Steven to talk about his background and upbringing, how focus and dedication have led to his rise to the top, and how he traverses the modern world of social media and the lifestyle of a professional footballer.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
- Many football players start from rough beginning and use football as a way to break free from hardship and poverty, in search of an elusive dream of making it in a professional world.
- When you are completely fixed upon your goals in life, setbacks and challenge don't matter. They simply fuel your burning desire to reach higher and perform better.
- Social media can be very intense, and has to be handled in the correct way, especially for those in the public eye. You become a target just because of the fact that you're well known.
BEST MOMENTS
'I always got what I needed. Not always what I wanted, but what I needed'
'I knew what I wanted to do. I knew what I wanted to be'
'At the end of the day, the sacrifice was worth it'
'I just try to keep it strictly football'

KEY TAKEAWAYS
- Sometimes, recognising that there is a problem that affects people globally is the first step you take towards making something great and life-changing.
- Sport is a healing force as well as competitive one. It brings people together in order to celebrate human endeavour.
- Finding your place in the world is about finding out who you really are. It's about recognising what you offer to the world, and the strengths and weaknesses you have.
- When people knock you down and tell you that you can't achieve something, it should spur you on to do better and prove them wrong.
BEST MOMENTS

Felipe Nasr is a Brazilian racing driver whose many accolades include the 2018 IMSA Sportscar championship, the 2019 12 Hours of Sebring IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar Championship for Whelen Engineering Racing. He currently acts as a factory driver for Porsche.
Felipe joins Steven to talk about his racing legacy and where it began, the landscape of racing in the modern world, and what the future holds for prospective racing drivers.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
- When you have the encouragement of those you love, it can spur you on to achieve heights that you could not previously have imagined.
- There are always ways in to the racing world, and the industry encourages junior drivers. Scouts are constantly looking for the drivers of tomorrow.
- Anyone, at any level, in any sport, there has to be a level of sacrifice in order to really make it. The great ones always have sacrifice in their tail wind.
- There is a level of fitness and strength required in order to be a racing driver. Many assume that all you are doing is sitting in a seat, but it is immensely physically taxing. Training is essential.

KEY TAKEAWAYS
- With positivity, hard work, and the right people around you, you can achieve anything you put your mind to. All it takes is visualisation.
- Often in our journey, we can outgrow the visual goals we set for ourselves. This is the moment for bravery and understanding, and reaching higher.
- Entrepreneurs are like warriors. When the odds are stacked against them, they march on forwards and take it all in their stride.

Dave Coulter is a entrepreneur and the Executive Producer of Daily Driven Exotics (DDE), an automotive and luxury lifestyle media company.
Dave joins Steven to talk about the work ethic that has taken him and his company to a multi-million dollar valuation, and the lessons he transferred from the corporate world when it came to establishing one of the world's most exotic luxury lifestyle brand.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
- The great entrepreneurs are addicted to the process of the work rather than the result of the job. If you can find work you love, then the profits are just a bonus.
- Decisions made in the corporate world are often focussed on encouraging internal competition, which can only ever be detrimental.
- The issue with growing a brand is that people aspire to owning something similar. Often, when you are befriended by people, it's because they want to copy you wholesale and wish to find out the tactics you've used to get to the top.
- Building momentum is the key to traction. Once you reach a certain point, your views and connection potential increase exponentially.

Hannah Rankin is a Scottish professional boxer who has held the WBA female super-welterweight title since November 2021. She has also held the IBO title in 2019 and challenged for the WBA female super-middleweight title in 2018; the unified WBA, WBC, and IBF female middleweight titles in 2018; and the WBO female middleweight title in 2020.
As the first female Scottish World Champion, Hannah holds a prestigious place in the history books. Hannah joins Steven today to discuss her ethic, her legacy, and what lies ahead in the future.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
- No one ever reached the heights of greatness by doing things in a half-hearted way. The key to success is to find the thing you love and work as hard as you can.
- There are far more corollaries between the world of music and sport than we may realise. Rhythm and timing play a essential part on the success of either.
- Sport and discipline can often provide a family when we need one. It is the one place in the world that can provide distraction enough to take our minds off the darkest of life's challenges.
- You have to stay authentic. Pretending to be someone else cannot be sustained forever. You need to design your personal brand in a way that appeals and be true to yourself.

Michael Keat is best known for his pseudonym Miguel Mantovani, head honcho of the mighty Cuban Brothers. An actor, singer, dancer and all-round tomfoolery merchant, he has recently appeared in movies such as Ill Manors, David Brent: Life On The Road and Sunshine On Leith.
Michael joins Steven to talk about his life as an actor, how he creates characters, and the personality traits and drive needed in order to carve out a successful career in the world of entertainment.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
- Authenticity counts for a lot in the world of entertainment. It's not enough to be talented - people also need to want to work with you. Being open, honest and authentic is the key to that.
- You find ideas and draw inspiration from the places you visit and the people you meet. Always be open to influences, because they can take you on paths you'd never previously considered.
- Finding your groove in the world of entertainment is all about experimentation. You try things out and focus on the parts that work.
- Finding your flow is essential in the landscape of comedy Sometimes, you don't even need the jokes to work. You just need to find that flow state, and you'll be funny no matter what happens.
BEST MOMENTS
'Anyone who's a creator or an actor will have misgivings'
'I wear my heart on my sleeve'
'This was a great way to earn a crust and have some fun'
'If you're in tune - in flow - then you'll be comical, regardless'

This week, the study focusses upon Kevin Lane, whose new book 'Fitted Up and Fighting Back' chronicles his experiences after being convicted for the killing of Robert Magill, and his struggle to clear his name.
Kevin joins Steven to talk about his treatment inside the justice system, the circumstances of the crime itself and the investigations he's been involved, in, and the horrors of being swept up in a system that is fundamentally flawed, and which has the power to destroy lives if used incorrectly.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
- The media will always try to twist the truth in order to sell their narrative, even if it's false. They realise that sensation sells papers, which means that the truth can often be buried beneath outrage.
- Once you've been incarcerated and convicted, no one wants to hear your voice any more. They consider you done. It's incredibly difficult to be heard from that moment onwards.
- No matter what we go through, there's always a silver lining. Those with bulletproof mindsets always look for ways to improve themselves, even when you are in the belly of the beast.

John Andrew Perello, AKA JonOne is a graffiti artist, borns in 1963 in New York USA. Also known as Jon156, is an American graffiti now living and working in Paris. Born in New York’s Harlem neighbourhood, Jon was introduced to street art at an early age, tagging his name on the city streets. In 1984, he founded the graffiti group 156 All Starz, which cemented his career path.
Jon joins Steven to talk about his beginnings, and how he has built his personal artistic legacy on the streets of the world.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
- When you grow up in modest beginnings, you have to find your own means of expression and creativity. For Jon, this manifested itself in street art.
- When you have the availability of recreational drugs in your environment, it can be difficult to keep it at arm's length, especially when it is so ubiquitous.
- For an artist to succeed, he has to have success. For an artist to grow and develop, a certain level of success must happen. It provides inspiration and reignites the fires in our belly.

Matt Le Tissier is best known for his eight caps for the England national team and for his professional football career with Southampton, whose fans nicknamed him "Le God". Following his retirement as a player, Matt has become a recognised football pundit, working as a panellist on the Sky Sports show Soccer Saturday.
In recent times, Matt has begun to openly question the truth behind accepted information on subjects such as the effects of COVID vaccines, and the media manipulation being used to report upon the war in Ukraine. In this episode, Matt joins Steven to talk about not just his life and career, but his views on the current state of the world, and why he is standing firm against bullying tactics when it comes to his beliefs.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
- Social media is both a blessing and a curse. It allows us to put our own sides of the stories out there, but it also has the power to bring people down.
- Those who question the narrative are often dismissed as being right-wing conspiracy theorists. But this isn't the case. It's the right thing to do to question decisions that alter our lives.
- There are bound to be conflicting schools of thought in the world, but how we enforce our own beliefs is what sets us apart from the bullying tactics employed by some, who wish to enforce their singular views upon society.
- Like it or not, the vaccines are having a detrimental effect upon previously fit and healthy people. There have been many reports of people collapsing. A study must be made into whether this was caused by the vaccination drive.
BEST MOMENTS
'Far right conspiracy theorist is the slur people use these days when you question the narrative'
'Freedom of speech isn't dead, but it's on life support right now'
'I was mentally strong in my career, so I'm still strong enough as a person to believe in what's happening'

Bisco Smith is a New York-based contemporary artist with roots in music and graffiti. Bisco works in a variety of formats, including canvas and large outdoor murals, and is recognised for his lyrical approach to deconstructed expressionism characterised by gestural marks and abstracted text that embody the energy of a moment.
Bisco joins Steven to discuss the ways in which he uses music as his muse, the places from which he draws inspiration, and the process he uses to change the world with his art.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
- Your perspective on a piece of art, or an artists themselves, will always depend upon the level of education you have on that subject.
- When an artist retains a sense of mystery, it always adds value to their mythos. In today's world, everything is so accessible and touchable, that that sense of wonder is being lost.
- Being a creator is all about trusting the destination. You know you'll reach the end result, but the journey takes time and you can only see so far ahead at a time.
BEST MOMENTS
'Education behind an artist is really important'
'I'm a creator, not a collector. I'm a maker, not a consumer'
'Music is a motivator'
'I trust that I'll get to point B, but I can only see so far ahead'

Using his unique blend of hypnotherapy and well renowned Unconscious Mind Therapy, Robert has become well known in his field and a recognised face in the press and media throughout the UK, Europe and the rest of the World.
Robert joins Steven to talk about his incredible unconscious mind therapy concept, the ways in which he has positively impacted his many clients, and the fascinating ways in which a career in sales has led him to becoming the powerful mind master he is today.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
- Psychotherapy analyses change and promotes a system that tends to take anywhere upwards of two years in order to enact that change. It looks at the past, which puts the focus on the wrong thing.
- Visualisation is the key achieving our goals. If we can force our minds to feel a certain way, then we ultimately conquer that issue.
- After the age of seven years old, we have acquired our complete set of subconscious programming. This means that if change is needed, we need to get beneath that operating system before we can even begin.
BEST MOMENTS
'You can't focus on drink and become clean. You can't focus on being skint and become wealthy'
'I reframed a lot of myself, a lot of my mindset'
'By using our senses we can manipulate our emotions'

ABOUT THE HOST
The Steven Sulley Study is my take on success. My view is you should have multiple focuses to be a well-rounded individual. Success shouldn't be just one thing like money, for example, it should also consist of a healthy fit lifestyle and thriving relationships.
As a person who has made a success in life and also made huge cock-ups I feel I can offer suggestions and tips on how to become successful or at least start your pursuit. My 'Study' has taken resources from reading and education plus being around, my perception, of successful people and I, know a lot of successful people from all walks of life
My 'Study' coming from my experiences in business, investing, sales (my core background), training, boxing and education has enabled me to become well rounded and successful and I will help you in these key areas too.

Joseph Foster is the founder of one of the most recognisable brands in history - Reebok - and at 87 years old is still not showing any signs of slowing down. Joseph joins Steven to deliver a masterclass in what it takes to build a brand, and to reach the heights of the business world.
TAKEAWAYS
- The most important thing in life is to make sure that you're always having fun. Problems are natural, so expect them, but remember to see the positives.
- Many entering the world of business with an idea, see only the idea itself, and focus upon this solely. However, we soon come to realise that business is an all-encompassing pursuit, and requires a swift and comprehensive education in many areas. This is the entrepreneurial journey.
- Challenges arise at all junctures along the route through our business journey. The great ones recognise that challenge is there to be overcome, and lessons are always learned in its wake.
- Successful collaborations and partnerships are built upon a shared vision and purpose - one that guides a business around every obstacle, regardless of personal feeling.
QUOTES
'Providing you're an optimist, life will always be okay'
'If you're only thinking about money, then you're thinking about the wrong thing'
'I turned around and I went global'

Steven is joined this time by model, musician, and Made In Chelsea star, Fredrik Ferrier, to talk about health and wellness and how awareness plays a huge part, where he finds - and how he manages - the go-getter attitude that has carried him through life, and the story of his incredible journey through life so far.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
- Health and wellness are about taking a holistic approach - feeding the mind, the body and the attitude that carries us through life.
- When we surround ourselves with people who push through challenge and make the most of each day, we become go-getters through osmosis.
- Those who are reserved often finds that life's wildest opportunities pass them by. It's always wise to say yes when chances appear because that's where the adventures are.
BEST MOMENTS
'It's worth coming onto this show just for the service!'
'Weight training and diet is the best way to get in shape'

Alexis Landot is an extreme climber who has been described as "half man and half machine" due to his incredible physical feats.
Alexis joins Steven to discuss the importance of using your time on earth wisely, where he discovered the instinct to climb and the many forms it takes, and the perfect synthesis of mind and body that climbing produces.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
- Never waste a day in your life - you only have a finite amount of them. Treat each day as precious and get the most out of each one.
- Landscapes are roughly the same in any environment - they contain ranges of surfaces and terrains - whether urban or in nature.
- Climbing is about the perfect alignment of mind and body. It requires complete focus and dedication, but climbing creates this fusion.
BEST MOMENTS
'Time is a precious resource'
'Especially in an urban environment, I've always been intrigued by skyscrapers - these urban mountains'
'I needed this thing of being able to control your body and your mind'

Ohara Davies is a British professional boxer. He held the WBC Silver light-welterweight title from 2016 to 2017 and challenged once for the Commonwealth light-welterweight title in 2017.
Ohara joins Steven to talk about his journey towards becoming a world champion, and the importance of resilience and authenticity in all areas of your life.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
- If you're not progressing or growing each day, then you stagnate. Time waits for no man. It's up to you to seize the day and make each one count.
- There's no such thing as a loss. You only have lessons you draw from to make you stronger and more resilient.
- There no sense in pretending to be someone else, or not speaking up when it matters. If you hide your true voice and your true feelings, then you're only stopping yourself from being the person you were born to be.
BEST MOMENTS
'I've got to be on the ball, making moves, making progress every day'
'Time ain't waiting for nobody'
'Money's important, but what's more important is freedom'
'There is the truth, and then there is the narrative'

Gian Power is the CEO and founder of TLC Lions, started his first business at the age of thirteen years old, is the board member of This Can Happen - one of the UK's largest mental health conferences - and is an award-winning entrepreneur.
Gian is a true powerhouse of business, but it hasn't always been easy. Gian joins Steven to talk about his incredible journey - from the depths of personal tragedy to the pinnacle of achievement - and how he found life-changing success by the age of just thirty years old.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
- Never discount the value of the small lessons that build you up incrementally during your youth, Even a casual constructive word can change your life.
- Sales is about building a rapport with absolutely anybody. It's about recognising a need, and using a story and a journey to get them to a solution.
- The link between financial wellbeing and mental wellbeing is profound. If people can't afford to feed their children, or see their finances dwindling hopelessly, it can instigate a devastating effect upon your mind.
- Controlling your emotions is the key to self-mastery. Sometimes you have to let your emotions filter out into the ground without displaying them. If someone fails to get a reaction from us, it is very powerful.
BEST MOMENTS
'You build your own dreams or help somebody else build theirs'
'I won't be beaten in anything that I do'
'Hope is just so critical. There is light at the end of the tunnel'
'I've had to learn how to manage my emotions and control them'

He joins Steven on this episode to talk about his background and upbringing, his incredible rise to fame, and the driving force behind his career that has allowed him to build the life he lives.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
- The best people to have around us are the ones who listen to our aspirations and ask us the questions that lead to the answers that get you there.
- There are no barriers to your dreams. The world is a new place and filled with countless opportunities to have the career of your dreams.
- The joy of others and the feeling you get from making people happy, can be addictive. If you can build a career around it, then it becomes a calling.
- Sometimes we focus far too much on what we don't have, and lose sight of what we do have. We need to stop and refocus from time to time.
BEST MOMENTS

KEY TAKEAWAYS
- Connecting with people is one of the most valuable and powerful things in life. Your network is your net worth. Possessions pass, achievements fade, but people and connections last a lifetime.
- Fast food gives you a quick rush of energy, but the long term result can often be damaging. We need to make sure that we put better things into ourselves for long term gains.
- Language is one of the most powerful tools we possess. We should treat it as one of our greatest assets and work on developing it each day.
BEST MOMENTS

Steven is joined by Simon Cox, the former professional football player and Republic of Ireland international, who played as a striker.
Simon and Steven discuss the value of speaking up bout mental health, especially amongst young men, and the best way to build physical and mental fortitude.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
- It doesn't matter what your background in life is, there are always people who struggle each day internally. Never be afraid to speak out about your own conflict.
- It's far better to train with purpose than it is train passively. You need to work hard and focus on it entirely if you want to get the best results.
- Surround yourself with people you can trust, and who can lift you up when you need it. Your network is your net worth.

Shaun joins Steven to talk about his incredible sporting career, the legacy living on through his family and what the future holds for the Wright-Phillips name, and how the game of football is changing.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
- It's not enough to take the name you're given and lean on the history behind it. You have to put your own stamp on history. You have to try to do even better than those who came before you.
- The one thing you can't teach is raw talent. There are certain skills that are born into you, and that cannot be taught by any coach.
- There needs to be room for human error in football, especially when it comes to officiating. It adds to the drama and stokes debate, which is what keeps passion alive.

Bobby White is a London based creative jewellery power house founded by designer Bobby in 2004. Specialists in diamond jewellery designed and created in house from the BW London studio and sold via the Bobby White flagship London store. Bobby grew up in London’s East End in the 80’s and 90’s and set up his jewellery brand at the age of 21 after completing five years of training under a master craftsman in the timeless art of fine jewellery making by hand.
Bobby joins Steven today to talk about his creative process, how he is reinventing the way the world interacts with jewellery and high-end design, and how he has leveraged social media in order to take jewels and innovation to the masses.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
- People love a story, especially about the products they buy. This has inspired Bobby to create an all-new way of working, where people can view the high-end designs and products being made.
- You have to take the opportunities that move you towards your dreams. Sometimes, the world offers you a shortcut, and it's up to you to spot it.
- Jewellery is generally purchased to mark a special event in life, but those who buy continuously are seeking to mark even the smaller moments in life as special.
BEST MOMENTS
'We have such a creative vision, going forward'
'My goal was always to start my own thing'
'I've always tried to give it that extra bit - to become the best I can'

Originally qualifying as a Solicitor and transferring to the Bar early on in his career, he has advised or acted on behalf of celebrities, political groups and multi-billion dollar international groups and their Presidents.
Roy joins Steven to talk about becoming one of the youngest barristers in the country, how he transitioned to take on the role of property investor and entrepreneur, and the life formula he employs to keep achieving consistent success.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
- If something in life isn't working for you, then give yourself the permission to change it. Reinvention is the key to finding success.
- The ones who find the highest levels of success, all share common traits and habits. It's always wise to surround yourself with successful people, as you will absorb those traits.
- Resilience is born in the bones, and especially from challenge and setbacks in life. This is what makes great entrepreneurs out of those who have rough beginnings.
- Life is all about sales, whether we know it or not. To build relationships we sell ourselves. To close business deals, we sell ourselves plus a deal. Sales is the most important skill we can develop.
BEST MOMENTS
'I was defying convention'
'Those who do phenomenally well are the ones who didn't have a great start'
'I just kept reinventing myself'

Jamie joins Steven for a second time to talk about the fresh starts he's currently following in life, and how he is writing the second chapter of his incredible life
KEY TAKEAWAYS
- When we have clean minds and fresh thinking - a positive, unencumbered outlook on life ahead - it helps us to create new and impactful opportunities for ourselves.
- When you have proper goals, and you have the urge to prove the doubters wrong, everything else just falls in to place. Always look forward.
- Challenges and setbacks carve away at us, whittle us into the person we were meant to be. It's not how you react to a challenge, it's what you learn from it that counts.

Tim Burton, known professionally as Shmee150 or Shmee, is a British car vlogger and YouTuber, who is based in London. His YouTube channel has two million subscribers and features videos of him traveling to see exotic cars and maintaining and using his own car collection.
Shmee 150 joins Steven this week for a very special episode dedicated to the supercar dream, the exploits and adventures of the Gumball Rally, the future of cars and racing in a more sustainable world, and how to take your talents to the world through the use of social media.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
- The advancement in technology when it comes to the power behind cars means that while fundamental answers will evolve, the core appeal of racing and supercars will remain.
- Electric cars can recreate the achievements and standards of internal combustion engine-driven cars, but they can't seem to recreate the feeling.
- There's only so far you can get by coasting on your routine and your past success. If you want to hit the real heights, then you need to work harder and push higher.
- Video content has evolved over time. People used to crave short form entertainment, but now have gotten used to more in-depth content.
BEST MOMENTS
'There will be electric supercars and hypercars'
'What you get from a car with an engine, is a feeling...'
'If you can get 90% of the traffic for 10% of the work, ten that is much better than putting in another 90% of the work to get that 10% of the traffic'

Tamer Hassan is a British actor, best known for his role as the leader of the Millwall firm, opposite Danny Dyer, in The Football Factory. He was born and brought up in New Cross, London into a Turkish Cypriot family and started boxing at the age of 10. He started an amateur boxing career at the age of 17 and compiled a record of 95-10 with 86 knockouts. Having sustained an injury in amateur boxing, he turned to running nightclubs and restaurants.
Tamer joins Steven to talk about the effect of fame upon his family and how he circumnavigates the pressures that come with it, and how he has developed the discipline required to stay at the top of the game.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
- Whether you're in the public eye or not, you have to take a step back from every situation when it comes to your children, and look at it as a parent, rather than a celebrity.
- Even if you do exist in the public eye, you have to keep it real. Fame can vanish overnight. You need to make sure you're true to yourself and see yourself as a human being first and foremost.
- Life comes at you very fast, especially when children arrive. The freedom you had as a youth suddenly evaporates, and you find yourself confronted with responsibilities. The great ones step up.
BEST MOMENTS
'Kids are kids. They never leave you. They just get more expensive'
'Here should be that structure in place where we do have a support system'
'The discipline does go through to your work ethic and your family ethic'

- Street art is perhaps one of the purest expressions of the populace. It is the graphical representation of how the streets themselves are feeling.
- When we find ourselves struck and inspired by the works of others, it can push us on to want to emulate and transcend in our own way.
- Gallery works by street artists are a way of preserving the feeling, the mood, the place in time. It should be viewed as a permanent record of a specific moment.
BEST MOMENTS
'For the first time, I saw street art. It was a revelation to me'
'It was something so new and so disturbing.
'The work in the street is 100% important. The work in the gallery is also important because if we don't show it there, there will not be a memory of what happened in the street'

AJ Bunker is most famous for having competed on ITV's Love Island in season 7. She joins Steven after her much-hyped fight with Elle Brooks, to talk about the controversial fallout as a result of the shocking decision made by the fight's judges, but also the positives that can be taken forward from the fight.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
- The very idea of doing something can often be scarier than the deed itself. In the moment, it's often nowhere near as bad as the way your mind has told you it would be.
- We are put on this earth in order to try new things and experience as much as possible. Challenge can be terrifying at times, but they help to enrich the lives we live.
- Boxing is a professional sport, and should always be treated as such by those who take part in it. A lack of respect shows a complete lack of professionalism.
BEST MOMENTS
'There's an element of fear there'
'Life's about trying things and throwing yourself into uncomfortable situations'
'Where is the respect? Where is the sportsmanship?'

AJ Bunker is an MMA fighter, who is most famous for having competed on ITV's Love Island in season 7. She joins Steven on the eve of her much-hyped fight with Elle Brooks, to talk about her outlook on life, the importance and value of hard work, the ups and downs of the celebrity lifestyle, and how she has used the world of sport to level up her resilience and health.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
- When it comes to the world of celebrity, there's always a point that can make you or break you. It's a very tricky line to walk, and if not handled correctly, can lead to detrimental effects on your health - mental and physical.
- Taking a step into the celebrity world does mean that your life opens up to the world, and it can be an unstoppable force. You need to live your life and be happy and not let is affect you.
- Sport has the power to help you level up in ways you cannot imagine, and not just physically. Sport requires discipline, which fortifies your resilience and mindset.
BEST MOMENTS
'My goal was work hard, pay the mortgage off and then travel'
'You've got to know yourself'

Andrew Henderson is a five-time world freestyle football champion and seven-time UK national Champion, who despite setbacks in his physical health, has always refused to back down from the most extreme of challenges.
In today's show, Steven talks to Andrew about what it means to push past your limitations and reach for success, and how adversity and challenges should never stop you from reaching your dreams.
KEY TAKEAWAYS Sometimes, the advice and guidance we receive can spur us on to push back and achieve more. When we are told that we cannot do something, it makes us want to do it even more. You are always going to find adversity and setbacks in anything you do. The key is to embrace it and rise above. Finding your passion is about identifying the pursuits that light your fire, but also the ones that make you buzz with possibilities. If you can't get it out of your head, you may just have discovered where your passions lie.
BEST MOMENTS
'They told me that I might never be able to walk again'
'I always wanted to be the best'
'If you want to be the best, you need to think about it all the time'
The most progression comes from the mental side'

Lamorne Morris is an American actor, comedian and television personality. He is best known for his role as Winston Bishop in the Fox sitcom New Girl (2011-2018). He has also had supporting roles in the films Barbershop: The Next Cut (2016), Game Night (2018), Jumanji: The Next Level (2019), and Yesterday (2019).
Lamorne joins Steven to talk about his family and upbringing, how he has become a household name around the world, and the shared stories of their recent experience together in the Gumball Rally.
KEY TAKEAWAYS When you are raised by go-getters, that sense of purpose and thirst for something better, impacts your entire life from then onwards. Connecting with people should always be our first priority in life. Life is far better and more enriched by the presence and gifts of others. Opportunities come and go, but if you don't take them when they arrive, you might regret it for the rest of your life. Always try to be open minded. Dreams are the real fuel to success. Even the most successful people were at the bottom once. The ones who reach the top are the ones who use their dreams as rocket fuel to keep pushing higher.
BEST MOMENTS
'The most important thing is connecting with new people'
'If I hadn't done this, I would've regretted it for the rest of my life'
'You have to go through the rough patch'
"you have to dare to shoot your shot'

Steven talks to Caoimhin Agyarko, otherwise known as CJ, whose boxing record is one of the most impressive in the game. Having come from humble beginnings, CJ talks about the burning passion that he has harnessed in order to elevate his path in life, how the places he's come from help to fuel his purpose in the ring, and his ambitions for the future.
KEY TAKEAWAYS Sportsmen and businessmen share the same thirst for hard work, self-belief, dedication to their craft, and resilience. People from Belfast, and especially fighters, are proud of where they come from and love to represent the places they come from. This gives them an extra purpose in the ring. When you're following a path that's unfulfilling, it still has value. It teaches you about the things you don't want to pursue, and steers you towards your true passions. Money is vital in securing our livelihoods, but if our passions mean the world to us, it is not the only motivation we need in order to succeed.
BEST MOMENTS
'I feel like boxers and business people share the same mindset'
'If you get in the ring with an Irishman, then you know it's going to be a tough night's work'
'Boxing was always my number one priority'
'Money means nothing. I would fight for free'

Damon Fryer is a Canadian social media and YouTube star who has earned massive popularity for his autovlogging, which has included personal entries as a supercar connoisseur, racing, reviews, and stunt vlogs. His YouTube channel is called DailyDrivenExotics.
Damon joins Steven to talk about how he acquired his amazing work ethic and how he built an incredible online presence and turned it into one of the most respected lifestyle brands in the world.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
The ways in which we can grow up can inspire the paths we take. If we don't have a lot, then it inspires us to work hard to get more. The only way to build any kind of brand is to start. It doesn't matter if the product isn't perfect at the outset. The important thing is to get going. You have to develop a mindset that allows you to shut out the opinions of others. People's viewpoints are temporary things. The work you create will last much longer. Success is not about the money you gain or the possessions you own. Success is about happiness. Happiness and contentment is the true prize.
BEST MOMENTS
'As entrepreneurs you have this ability to leverage finances'
'You know the puzzle can be put together. You just need to find the pieces'

In this special episode, recorded in Miami and direct from the Gumball Rally, Steven talks to YouTube sensation and lifestyle influencer, Mr JWW, whose channel has attracted 160 million views and who commands a global social audience of over 1.5 million in 2021.
Mr JWW talks candidly about his rise to success in the world of social media, how film changed his life, how consistency can help you to build a following, and of course, about his burning passion for some of the world's most special automobiles.
KEY TAKEAWAYS Never let any challenges you have in life, stand in the way of what you dream about. You can always overcome a setback and reach your goals. Building a consistent following on social media is all about being consistent yourself. Post often and make sure you're turning out quality content. Buying equipment so as to bolster the content you make - investing in the items that fuel your content creation - is always a wise investment. Many see these things as luxury purchases, but they are necessities in terms of growing your reach. When audiences grow, the opportunities come far more quickly. This can lead to different revenue streams. Earning money from social media doesn't just come from selling advertising space.
BEST MOMENTS
'I never believed this would gain the traction it did'
'When I had a camera pointed on me, I could talk - no problem at all'
'You need to post consistently. Three times a week - minimum!'
'One week on the rally is enough for a decade's worth of stories'

James Constantinou is the CEO of Prestige Pawn Brokers, an asset finance expert, and the star of Channel 4's Posh Pawn. James joins Steven on this episode, to talk about the path he's taken as one of the brightest entrepreneurs in the country, the formula behind his incredible success, and how his stint on television has changed life forever.
KEY TAKEAWAYS Formal education is the norm laid down by society, but it should never dictate the path we walk in life. You gain far more knowledge and experience from life itself. Success doesn't ever depend on your background or where you're from. Success finds people with enough drive to seek it out, and who work tirelessly to achieve it. Failure isn't about doors closing forever. Failure teaches us lessons about how to succeed. It also means that we are moving closer towards a yes. If you're waiting to be perfect at something, then you'll never take the leap you need. Far better to be as ready as you think you need to be, and learn everything else on the job.
BEST MOMENTS
'Always try and sell when you can in the right way'

John Salako is an English football coach, former professional player, and sports television pundit who played as a midfielder in the Premier League for the likes of Crystal Palace, Coventry City, Bolton Wanderers and Charlton Athletic. He represented England at senior level, earning five caps, all during 1991 while he was a Crystal Palace player. From 2009 to 2015, alongside his punditry work, Salako coached within Crystal Palace's youth academy as well as for a spell with the first team.
John joins Steven to talk about the value of art and cultural enrichment, the ways in which he has learned to protect the assets he has amassed through his incredible career, why hard work matters, and the future of digital in the investment space.
KEY TAKEAWAYS Professionals in their field generally tend to begin at a very young age, giving up much of their youth in exchange for their craft. But we should always take time out to enrich our lives, culturally. Tangible asset classes are outperforming the stock market, and are turning into safe havens for investors who wish to protect their money through these uncertain financial times. We all want success as quickly as possible, but we need to put the work in. You can't hope to learn all there is to know without getting out there and earning your stripes. Money is a great enabler in that it doesn't just provide the material assets we desire - it also buys us the freedom in life to be able to enjoy more.
BEST MOMENTS
'There's a whole massive world music and art and film, and it's incredible'

He achieved notoriety after making a speech in which he jokingly denigrated two of the company's products. He currently speaks around the world at corporate and promotional events.
Gerald joins Steven to talk about the attitude and mindset you need in order to excel in business, the fallout from his now legendary speech and how it shaped the businessman he subsequently became, and how he came back from the depths of failure to regain his position as one of the world's savviest businessmen.
KEY TAKEAWAYS In business, it is incumbent upon us to be aggressive when it comes to finding opportunities. nothing must stand in your way. When your back is against the wall, when everything is against you, and yet you still make things work, it's the greatest feeling in the world. Business and life are about ups and downs. Anybody can take the worst negatives and turn them into the most glittering of positives. Business is all about the continual investing of money into keeping your business at the best level it can be, It is about competing not just with the world of today, but also the world of tomorrow.

After years of internal struggles and a career spent in the military, Jaxon Feeley made the life-changing decision to transition from being a woman to a man. Despite reservations and doubts, Jaxon has since become a beacon for those going through similar changes, and has discovered in the course of his own journey, that people's attitudes and approaches to his new identity have been surprisingly supportive, and found in the least likely of places.
In this special episode, Jaxon talks to Steven about his journey so far, the challenges people face when attempting to find their true identity, the effect of social media upon identity, and why we should live life to the fullest each and every day.
KEY TAKEAWAYS Altering our lives in such a radical way is a terrifying enough prospect, as it requires a wholesale revolution of the way we live. It is made far easier by the understanding and support of others. Social media is showing us a skewed version of life, and one that is hard to live up to. The issue is that many only choose to post the positives, instead of the realities. Life is ours for the taking. We only get one shot. We cannot spend our single, unique existence in the pursuit of pleasing others and their preferences. We have to live for ourselves. The process of transitioning is not one to be taken lightly. From a medical standpoint, doctors want to receive assurances that your decision has been made of your own free will, and that you have taken all considerations into account.
BEST MOMENTS
'I didn't know what it was, but I knew that there was something that wasn't quite right'

Gareth Jones is a former rugby player, who has since turned his energy towards business and entrepreneurship. But the journey has not always been a straightforward one. It's a path that has seen Gareth tackling some of the biggest issues out there in order to become the best version of himself.
Gareth talks candidly to Steven about the issues he has faced, how he surmounted them and came back stronger, the role of men and masculinity in modern society, and how altered states and hypnotic states can help us to achieve more in the field of business.
KEY TAKEAWAYS When we become the best version of ourselves, we welcome in factors such as happiness, financial freedom, and impactful positivity on ourselves and those around us. When we have damaging problems, and in particular problems with substance abuse and addiction, the instinct is to keep them hidden. But we cannot hope to exorcise our demons unless we bring them out into the light. Success in itself can be addictive, but it requires control. When we see dips in our success, it can lead to the search for similar highs, which could prove dangerous if we don't have the correct mindset. We can only truly connect with others on a global scale when we break down barriers and show each other what is possible through collaboration.
BEST MOMENTS
'I was at war with myself - at war with the world'

Lord Aleem is a YouTuber, entrepreneur, and car enthusiast, as well as the co-owner of Platinum Executive Travel (PET), a luxury car hire company.
Lord Aleem talks candidly to Steven about his inspiring rise to the pinnacle of success, the story of his phenomenal business, and the life lessons that have steered him towards growing one of the country's most incredible business empires.
KEY TAKEAWAYS True success never comes from the easy path. Hard work, facing down your challenges, and overcoming adversity in order to learn lessons, is the only way we truly grow. Having money does not mean that we should show less respect. We must always be careful about the feelings of others, and respect their property and values. Business is largely like sport in the respect that when challenges are faced, it is not about whether we win or lose, but how we come back fighting. Even if we project an outward veneer of perfection, there will always be those who criticise and try to bring us down. This comes from a need to justify their own reasons for not achieving your level of success.
BEST MOMENTS
'Part of being a champion is getting through the tough times'
'I like to think we've weathered the storm and will come back stronger'
'When a teacher wants you to talk in class, put your hand up first'
'All the materialistic things in the world are not what I'm going to be impressed by'

Steven talks to "The Romford Bull", Johnny Fisher, a professional boxer who has already gained invaluable experience from sparring 2016 Olympic silver medallist Joe Joyce and undefeated S-JAM Boxing stablemate Guido Vianello in a recent Las Vegas training camp.
Johnny talks to Steven about the surprising turns his life has taken so far, including a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity that steered him away from a more traditional form of education and into the world of sport, the power of association and learning from others, and the story of his incredible rise to success in not just the world of sport, but life itself.
KEY TAKEAWAYS Some take the traditional route through education with no problems at all. But this path isn't for everyone. Some find it far easier to absorb knowledge and gain experience through practical means. Surrounding yourself with people to whom you aspire to emulating, dramatically accelerates your growth in that area. To be the best, you have to associate with the best. Boxing is all about balance. The alpha male element of us wants to push harder and punch faster, but it must be balanced with strategy and patience. We never know where life will take us. Opportunities can appear from any direction. We must have the mindset needed to take advantage of things when they appear.
BEST MOMENTS
'I was very raw. I'm still very raw'
'There's a misconception in our society that you have to go through higher education. But that isn't the case'
'I've always had a raw strength'

Steven talks to Charlie Mullins OBE, the founder of Pimlico Plumbers, London’s largest independent plumbing company.
Charlie talks candidly about what drives him, how he's achieved incredible feats in the world of business, the importance of inspiration on the next generation of entrepreneurs, and the personal philosophies that have seen him rise to become one of Britain's most successful and recognisable businessmen.
KEY TAKEAWAYS When we see others doing well, it lights the fire inside us - the fire that spurs us onwards on our own journeys into business and life. Inspiration is what drives others to succeed. The world out there is more level than it's ever been. If you have a dream then the only thing holding you back from chasing it is yourself. If you have the drive and ambition to set up a business and take it to the top, you have to realise that it doesn't come easily. You must be prepared to work hard and be in it for the long haul. It can be hard to sometimes switch from the trade of the business itself, to the running of the business. But you need to believe in the people you’ve chosen to represent you out there. Trust is everything. Learning to delegate is very important.
BEST MOMENTS
'I believe that these are the people who drive the world forward'
'Think big, but also think realistic'
'Businesses are not an overnight success - they're for the long haul'
'It changed the image of plumbing. Suddenly everybody started upping their game'

Ryan Burnett is a former professional boxer who competed from 2013 to 2019. He was a unified bantamweight world champion, having held the WBA (Unified) and IBF titles between 2017 and 2018. At regional level he held the British bantamweight title from 2015 to 2017. As an amateur, he represented Ireland at the 2010 Summer Youth Olympics and won a gold medal in the light-flyweight division.
Ryan talks to Steven about life in and out of the ring, the sometimes challenging journey he took to become the world champion, and how he has taken the skills learned in the ring, and applied them to his life and business.
KEY TAKEAWAYS Boxing provides a set of life skills that can be carried on through life, such as overcoming adversity, the value of hard work, dedication and focus. Reflecting on our legacies is always healthy, but we must never spend too much time in wishing we'd done things differently, or achieved more. The best of the best are grateful for their achievements, and don't spend time chasing shadows of what could have been. When you have a mindset that wants to achieve more despite any odds, no obstacle can stand in your path. You can overcome anything. Goal setting is crucial. We need to determine our vision and work relentlessly towards it. Without doing this, we become aimless.
BEST MOMENTS
'For every boxer turning professional, your dream is to become the world champion'
'I was very grateful for what I had, not what I could've had'
'When you have a strong mindset, and you're beyond relentless, then nothing matters'
'If I'm going for something, then nothing can stop me'

Henry Conway is a socialite, party promoter, author and fashion journalist, occasionally self-styled as "Queen Sloane".
Henry joins Steven to talk about his incredible life, the state of social spaces in London - past and present - the ways in which we should think of the social scene, how social life has become far more liberating and diverse, how media has changed, and how to always be the life of the party.
KEY TAKEAWAYS London provides a city landscape that plays home to not just the international community, but one of the most vibrant, all-encompassing cultural landscapes in the world. Many assume that clubs are merely in existence to provide a place for recreation and fun. That's very much the case, but it's also a wonderful environment for networking, providing countless opportunities for meaningful connection. There has always been a certain stigma associated with lifestyle, including wealth. Nowadays, we are far more free thinking and liberated, enough to be more comfortable with who we are. People are being encouraged to own who they are. Celebrities often work in league with news outlets, providing them with fodder for their pages in return for payment. But the effect of this relationship has only fuelled the public's desire for more news - for more scandal.
BEST MOMENTS

'Be who you are and own it!'

Steven once again talks to actor and film producer, Terry Stone, who began life as a rave promoter, but who in 2003 switched gears entirely and began a new phase in his life as an actor.
Terry rejoins the show to talk about his new forays into different avenues of business, including cryptocurrency and NFTs, as well as the world of today and how the challenges that keep presenting themselves to society each day are helping to shape the world of tomorrow.
KEY TAKEAWAYS Whatever we think of the world in its current state, no one can deny that we are living in unprecedented, tumultuous and world-shaping times. This feels like the beginning of a new world, and a farewell to the one that came before. We should always be looking for the next challenge. Winners never quit and quitters never win. Find what you’re happy doing and stick at it. COVID and its restrictions have fundamentally changed the way the world works. Digital and remote versions of life have overtaken the way we do everything - whether this turns out to be positive or negative in the long run remains to be seen. The important ingredient in achieving success is not necessarily gaining the right skills or talents to be the best. It's about having the right mindset in the first place. It's about always believing that you can succeed and being prepared to put in the work
BEST MOMENTS
'The only good thing about COVID< Brexit and the war, is that they say it comes in threes!'
'I could've sat on my hands and done nothing. But I thought - go for it'
'You need to become resilient and you need to become resourceful'

Tobias (Toby) Gutteridge, a former member of the U.K. Special Forces (S.B.S), an avid motocross rider, surfer and overall extreme sports enthusiast is the founder of Bravery, an extreme sports brand that supports charities for underprivileged children and discharged members of the Armed Forces. He aims to support and empower those who have dug deep within themselves to overcome their own adversities by finding courage, strength and the resilience to bounce back stronger than ever, rather than sinking into despair.
Toby joins Steven this week to talk about what it means to overcome life's greatest challenges, how we can often rise above the hands we're dealt in life, and how through resilience and willpower we can reach our true potential in life.
KEY TAKEAWAYS Life doesn't always deal us the cards we deserve in life. We can find ourselves beaten down and at the bottom of the pile. However, if we have the will to rise above, then anything is possible. People are an endless source of creativity and imagination. Even those we pass by in the streets can hide a multitude of talents and skills. Never judge a book by its cover. In order to fully realise out potential, we must keep pushing, keep trying, never quit. Only by doing so can we achieve the confidence we need to find our true worth. Every decision we make in life leaves a scar of some kind. Making peace with the person we become is about making peace with the scars life leaves behind.
BEST MOMENTS
'I thought, I need to change man - I need to do something else'
'We had so much potential, we just didn't know how to harness it'
'I always had this passion, this burning sensation to be the best, keep going, keep pushing myself and to see what my actual limit is'
'The things I have experienced have made me who I am today'

George Groves is a former professional boxer who competed from 2008 to 2018. He held the WBA (Super) super-middleweight title from 2017 to 2018, and regionally the European, British, and Commonwealth super-middleweight titles between 2010 and 2014. He was ranked as the world's best active super-middleweight by BoxRec, The Ring magazine and the Transnational Boxing Rankings Board.
George joins Steven to talk about life inside and outside of the ring, how the development of the mind has contributed to the physical victories, and how he has managed to navigate the sometimes uneven road to fame across his incredible career.
KEY TAKEAWAYS Life is about narrative, whether expressed through art, sport, endeavour or purpose. Every decision we make contributes to our own story. Success requires sacrifice. Sometimes we reach the top through leaving behind other passions. Every rise to the top has required dedication, resilience and hard work. Mental development is equally as important as physical progress, especially in the world of sport. We cannot hope to succeed if we do not attain mental resilience and strength. Many assume that affirmation comes from the adoration from others. But if we are truly comfortable in our own skin, and have the highest respect for ourselves and what we can achieve, then validation should come from within.
BEST MOMENTS
'If you want to invest in stories, then art is the way to go'
'Every fight felt like a life and death situation'
'I was developing my mind as well as my body'
'I like individuals, but I don't like "people". This means I don't crave the fame'

Mark joins Steven to discuss the crossovers between the world of sport and business, the effects of his television appearance upon his life and career, and how drive, grit and resilience can help you to reach higher and achieve far more than you may believe.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
Discipline is a key tenet of the successful in business. This is why so many professional sports practitioners and those with a military background seem to succeed where others fail. The effects of fame are a mixed bag. On one hand, the elevation of your profile can help to open doors, but there are also downsides. You are suddenly opened up to the more negative side of society. Most people only operate at around 50% of their capacity. The true key to achieving more is to pen up the remaining energies you have. You will be surprised at what can be achieved by doing so. Every successful business person is grounded in the art of resilience. You have to be tough to make it to the top. The tougher you get, the further you go.
BEST MOMENTS
'I believe the most successful business people come from either a military background or a competitive sport background'
'I couldn't go for a Starbucks without having 50 selfies and talking about business on the street'
'When you're on top you're perceived to be a target'
'The thicker your skin gets, the more successful you'll be in business'

Aaron Chalmers is an English retired mixed martial artist and reality television personality who has appeared in the reality shows Geordie Shore and Ex on the Beach.
Aaron meets Steven to talk about the business side of fighting, social media and the pros and cons of the new technologically based world, his philosophy around money and success, and his work ethic when it comes to professional sport.
KEY TAKEAWAYS Professional fighting is a business, and should always be kept as such. When those with bigger followings set up fights, they have the right to enter matches where those audiences are matched. Social media is a tool that the world uses unilaterally to gain an audience and to make money. This can lead to stunning success, but it can also breed jealousy and resentment from others. The key to embracing money is not to think of it as the end result. More money does not necessarily bring happiness, but the accumulation of money does allow us the freedom to be able to follow the paths we find interesting and appealing. Professional sport and training should be treated like a job, because that's what it is. Work is not something we should ever treat as a hobby. We have a small window of time in the professional world. We should dedicate ourselves completely to it.
BEST MOMENTS
'It's about money at the end of the day'

Abass Baraou is a German professional boxer who has held the WBC International light-middleweight title since 2019. As an amateur he won a bronze medal at the 2017 World Championships and a gold at the 2017 European Championships, both while competing at welterweight.
Abass joins Steven to talk about the toughness and mindset required to be the best in the ring, what has driven him to the top in the world of sport, the struggles he has faced in life, and how we can channel our energies into more positive directions.
KEY TAKEAWAYS If you are a boxer and have achieved the mindset needed to step into a ring, then you are at the pinnacle of your prowess. It takes a tough mental game as well as many sacrifices. Growing up in Germany, Abass faced much in the way of racism, but used his fighting skills to overcome the bullies. However, violence only led to trouble in other areas of life. Channelling his skills into sport instead, proved to be the best outlet. During our formative times in life, we should follow our instincts towards the pursuits that walk in sync with our souls. Find the path that makes you tick and follow it through.
BEST MOMENTS
'The mindset of an athlete and the mindset of a business person - there are so many similarities'

Leon Mark McKenzie is an English former professional footballer who played as a forward from 1995 to 2013 who scored in all four English professional leagues during his career. He was also a professional boxer, competing in the super middleweight class.
Leon joins Steven to talk about what it takes to succeed at the highest levels of sport, the striking and unexpected similarities between these two sporting pursuits, and why making mistakes is okay so long as you come out fighting.
KEY TAKEAWAYS Information has always been limited to those in the past. Now, with the advent of social media, podcasts and the shared wisdom of others, finding your path through life is much easier. the hard work required in order to achieve success is extraordinary. But once we find our dedication and the flow we need, it is far easier to maintain the high levels required. Never judge a book by its cover, despite what we may assume we know. Those who have grown up dedicated to one pursuit, may always have harboured dreams for another. The fighter mentality allows us to follow our hearts towards different paths. In order to understand ourselves better, we have to make mistakes. Only when we stumble, can we learn the most effective ways to pick ourselves back up, and carry these lessons forward.
BEST MOMENTS
'Football took over in a way where I really wanted to be that'

Josh Myers is a British actor, perhaps best known for his roles in his such as Fighting With My Family, and The Sweeney. Josh joins Steven to talk about his life as an actor, what makes a great screen performer, and how a promise he has made to himself - to always give his best - has helped him towards becoming one of Britain's shining lights of the acting world.
KEY TAKEAWAYS Although many assume the life of an actor is glamour and non-stop fun, it's actually very hard work. Those who wish to be the best in the field have to follow certain disciplines in order to grow and develop their craft. Acting is something you can learn to extent, but a natural talent is what pushes the good into the realms of the great. There are many similarities between the art of acting and art of sales. They both require discipline, the ability to inhabit a character, and the need to sell yourself to others. No matter what you do in life, always go at it with your whole self. Never do a job half-heartedly. Give it everything, and you'll always come out on top.
BEST MOMENTS

Steven talks to boxer, James "The Hitman" Hawley, about the importance of mindset and discipline and how they are tools that can be transferred to other areas of life, the value to be found in constant personal development, and why you can always find light in the darkest of life's moments.
KEY TAKEAWAYS Challenges force us to retreat sometimes, but if we have patience, and the right mindset, then we soon come to realise that we can push forward once more, and overcome . The best of the best know that in order to be ready to take advantage of opportunities, you must always be match fit. This is why training and development must be an ongoing thing. When dark moments arrive in life, it can often be a blessing in disguise. The paths we are forced to tread can lead us towards new ventures and openings that we may have missed. When we put ourselves in the public eye, we open ourselves up to a whole new world of criticism. This requires a whole new level of mental strength.
BEST MOMENTS
'The fighter's mindset - there's definitely crossover between boxing and business mindset'

'I'm always ready so that I don't have to get ready'

Steven talks to Mr Cenz, the incredible street artist whose murals and paintings have revitalised and reinvigorated the urban environments upon which they reside. Mr Cenz discusses his process, the purpose and drive that inspires him, and how he has learned to strike a balance in life between the artistic ambitions he still holds to, and the responsibilities of life.
KEY TAKEAWAYS When people look at art from the outside, they sometimes fail to see the sacrifice that artists must go through in order to become a household name. Creators who excel are all following the voice inside - the one that tells them when they are on the right path in life. Dreams are born in the hearts of the young, but as time goes by, these dreams have to filter through the priorities of life. It's about striking a balance between our artistic ambitions and the responsibilities we take on in life. It's all well and good to have a talent, but unless you pour your energy into making it work, and persevere, you'll never achieve success.
BEST MOMENTS
'I feel like I was born an artist'
'If you follow your passion and become the best at that particular thing, you can eventually monetise it'
'You've got to be completely comfortable with your work and style'

Anthony Ogogo is an English professional wrestler and former professional boxer signed to All Elite Wrestling. As a boxer, he competed from 2013 to 2016 as a professional, and won a bronze medal in the middleweight division at the 2012 Olympics as an amateur. He's also appeared on BBC's Strictly Come Dancing.
Few people know more about rising above and coming back from adversity, and in this week's show, Anthony talks to Steven about what it takes to reach the pinnacle of success, and how to overcome adversity when it tries to block your path.
KEY TAKEAWAYS We you dedicate yourself to self-development, whether physical or mental, you learn so much about yourself. We often think we know ourselves well, but during self-development, a whole new relationship begins. It's fine to be knocked off your feet by failures and setbacks, but they should never overwhelm us completely. Always pick yourself back up and try again. This is the best way to overcome adversity. We are never alone when it comes to challenge. Many have taken the roadblocks we face and overcome them before us. Look for the roadmap they used and be inspired by others.

Jonny Garrett is the founder of William Wood Watches, a British luxury watch brand dedicated to his grandfather who served in the British Fire Service for 25 years. Jonny creates unique watches made from up-cycled rescue service materials and donates a percentage of profits to a firefighters charity.
Jonny joins Steven for the second time on the podcast, to talk about how life has changed since 2019, and how the shape of his entrepreneurial journey has shifted as lessons have been learned.
KEY TAKEAWAYS Far too many people with the entrepreneurial spirit take too long to make the shift from part-time to full time, and before they know it, too many years have passed and the opportunities have eluded them. When we identify our true passions and turn those passions into a profession, work never feels like a chore. It becomes a pleasure. We must remember the human experience at the heart of every transaction. If we do not treat others with respect, and show up as our true, authentic self, then we cannot hope to succeed in the long run. Lifestyle businesses ultimately trump more traditional businesses as they generate products that travel. People around the world aspire to owning lifestyle items.
BEST MOMENTS
'It has never ever felt like a job'
'We have real British firefighting history beating through every single component'
'When you're doing things, don't leave any baggage behind'
'We live in a generation where you can grow a substantial 7-figure business from anywhere in the world'

As one year ends and another begins, it's always wise to reflect upon the goals we've achieved, the ones we're aiming for, plus to look at the wisdom gained across the space of a year. In this episode, Steven steps back in order to look at the lessons he has learned through 2021, and why people are at the heart of them.
KEY TAKEAWAYS By putting yourself in a target-rich environment, and surrounding yourself by those to whom you aspire, you are far more likely to achieve more. If you want to go far, you can do so alone, but if you want to go further than that, then you need a team behind you. Put yourself amongst those who make you feel uncomfortable and inferior. By striving to be more like them, you will level yourself up.
BEST MOMENTS

Steven is in New York City, and took time out to visit with John "CRASH" Matos, who first picked up a can of spray paint at the age of 13 to cut his teeth as a graffiti artist by “bombing” the subway trains in the New York.
Steven talks to CRASH about the New York scene itself, how the city regards artist, Richard Hambleton, the state of the art market in 2021, and the ever-changing face of New York City and its shifting identity.
KEY TAKEAWAYS Many do not realise that in New York City itself, Richard Hambleton's popularity among art lovers surpassed the likes of Keith Haring. The work of Hambleton took on a legendary place in New York's heart. The shadows themselves became characters that accompanied city-goers through life. Homage is one thing, but we must be careful not to copy someone's legacy outright. It's vital that creatives mark out their own unique places in the world.

Steven is in New York City, and took the time to visit one of the most respected street artists in the world on his home turf. Chris "Daze" Ellis, talks to Steven from his own studio, and talks about his recent work, the effects of the pandemic upon art, and how The Bronx has inspired his own work.
KEY TAKEAWAYS The effects of the pandemic have been disruptive across the globe, but for artists, it has allowed them to take time out and look inside themselves for new inspiration. All things happen for a reason, and we can often find ourselves derailed, but true character comes from the way we deal with challenges. New York City, and especially areas such as The Bronx, have inspired not just visual artists, but generations of musicians, film makers and other creatives.

Steven talks to boxer, Elliot Whale, about the hard fought journey he's had along the way to becoming one of the UK's foremost athletes, the similarities between sport and business, the importance of mind-set, and how focus and ambition can help us to live our dreams.
KEY TAKEAWAYS There are clearly transferrable skills between the world of boxing, with its disciplines and mind-sets, and the world of business, where resilience and discipline are staple requirements. All boxers, no matter at what stage of their career they may be, are all imbued with ambition, first and foremost. This is what drives them on to do better. Challenges arise from all areas, but it's how we deal with them that matters. Keep your focus and keep moving forward, and you can overcome anything.

Steven talks to Ken Moss, an art collector and personal friend of Richard Hambleton, about the cultural impact of Richard Hambleton and his work, as well as the enduring legacy he left behind - one that grows in stature with each passing day.
KEY TAKEAWAYS The best art makes us feel something visceral and internal. We do not necessarily have to like what we see, but be moved by it in some way. The artists use natural environments as part of their canvas realise the value in setting their stories in a particular place. The streets tell their own story, and street art embellishes and enriches that world. The markets can often dictate the style and pathway of an artist. Money often turns an artist into a brand and the world reflects that.
BEST MOMENTS
'It was very real and very visceral, and really got a response from the public'
'Sometimes in life you find your calling'

Steven talks to Ashley Theophane, the British former professional boxer who competed from 2003 to 2020, and who held the British super-lightweight title from 2011 to 2012.
Ashley discusses the importance of hard work when it comes to reaching your goals in life, the pros and cons of social media, what life was like at the top of his game, and the lessons he's taken from the world of sport into his own life.
KEY TAKEAWAYS We often only see the positive side of someone on social media, but this doesn't tell the whole story. There are lessons to be taken from the challenges, too. We have to remember that life is beautiful and exists in real terms outside of technology. We have to show future generations that life outside of tech is far better and more productive. The people who achieve more in life are far too busy looking for positives than they are in looking for reasons to take others down.

This week, Steven talks to self-described bohemian, Nemo LIbrizzi, described by Paradigm Magazine as having an "innate academic curiosity and fearless need for adventure," making him "a true arbiter of cool."
Nemo talks about the preservation of Richard Hambleton's work, and why his work has endured.
KEY TAKEAWAYS When we put enough care and attention into the preservation of a legacy, it becomes more than just a. business concern. It becomes a true passion. We are all meant to disrupt and ruffles feathers. If we're not doing that, then we are not reaching the biggest audience possible. Everyone has haters, but they don't attract them wholesale until they become truly successful. It doesn't matter where you come from in life. Art can speak to anyone, especially if it plays upon the elements we all experience in life. We all have a shadow that follows us through life.
BEST MOMENTS
'It's blossomed into a cathedral for the man's work'
'If you have ten player-haters today, you have to work on getting twenty player-haters by next year'

Ben Eine is one of the most successful street artists in the world and is regarded as a pioneer in the exploration of graffiti letterforms. Originally a graffiti writer, Eine started his career over 30 years ago, leaving his first tag all over London before developing his distinct typographic style.
This week, Ben returns to the podcast to talk about everything from the state of the world today, the importance of body art, and the true power of graffiti and its transformative power.
KEY TAKEAWAYS Lockdowns have helped and assisted in containing COVID, but they have come at the cost of our mental health in many ways. We are facing the prospect of a new pandemic, one of mental health issues. Graffiti is about writing your name on the side of an object, and making that name burn into the souls of all who see it. Inspiration comes from many sources, from travel to conversation. We never know when the spark of inspiration will arrive - sometimes it comes from the smallest interaction. There is an intense beauty in the mistaken. Mistakes are how any artform comes to evolve and become something transcendent.
BEST MOMENTS
'No one's ever going to wear a suit to the office again'
'It didn't bloody hurt as much as I thought it would bloody hurt'
'A square is a circle with less corners'

The name of Richard Hambleton has never been more lauded. In more recent times, an unknown artist has been working on the streets in order to pay tribute to his unique talent.
Nullbureau talks about his ambitions for the project, and why the work of Hambleton has inspired him in such a revolutionary way.
KEY TAKEAWAYS Many artists wish to produce a non-gallery experience, and people are far more attracted to this concept these days. The work of Hambleton has energised the popularity of the non-gallery experience. Street art is not the simple application of spray paint to surface, but the communication between souls - of connecting your visual representation to the eyes and hearts of the world around you. Hambleton's shadow work hearkens back to far more primal visual language - one that originated upon the walls of cavemen, and spoke to their sense of humanity and communication at the dawn of time. There is an innate sense built into all human beings, that compels us to seek ownership of the things in scarce supply. This is what drives the commercial art market.
BEST MOMENTS
'It's good to see people adding their pieces to this big puzzle Richard's spread out for us'
'Artists bring that experience to people's lives without telling them - giving them a surprise'
'At your base DNA you know what a shadow means'
'This is a very subversive language to play with'

Michael Conlan is an Irish professional boxer, heavily tipped to be a future world champion, a genuine Olympic medallist, and officially the most decorated Irish amateur boxer of all time.
Michael joins the show to talk about his mind-set and how it can affect outcomes, the preparation work he employs to ready himself for the challenges of the ring, and the belief he holds close in order to push himself forward.
KEY TAKEAWAYS Being Irish is a source of much pride, especially for its sportspeople. This sense of camaraderie and patriotism helps to boost the spirits when needed. Boxing is like life. It requires resilience. It requires discipline. Success does not come when we walk away. It comes from surmounting the challenges we face Boxing is a working class sport, and is a way for anyone to rise above their beginnings and become something truly great. But it involves struggle. When the chips are down, we always find solace and peace in the things we hold dear. For Michael, family is the most important thing in his life, and spurs him on to do better.
BEST MOMENTS
'The reason we have so much heart is that we're a nation that's been fighting now for hundreds of years'
'Being a boxer is about reaching the highest heights'
'It's a sport that can change lives'
'Being happy is about being around my family'

This week, Steven talks to former professional footballer, David Cotterill, who has since turned the disciplines and wisdom he found in the world of sport, towards the profession of mental health consultancy and public speaking, going on to found the David Cotterill Foundation, dedicated to solving mental health and addiction issues.
KEY TAKEAWAYS It doesn't matter if experiences have been bad or good, there are always learnings we can take in order to develop and grow. Mind-set is the key to overcoming the problems of addiction. The same powers of mind that help us to win, can also help us to reach higher when we hit the bottom. We should never place the weight of expectation too heavily upon those we nurture. Life is what we dream it to be. We should never crush the dreams of those we guide in order to achieve our own goals. Material possessions can only improve certain moments in life. They never provide true, lasting happiness. Happiness comes from pushing ourselves further, achieving more, and becoming the best version of ourselves.
BEST MOMENTS
'The definition of wisdom is learning from other people's experiences - good or bad'
'I knew what I wanted, and I knew that I'd practiced enough in order to achieve those goals'
'It's important that children follow their own dreams, and not their parents'

Tris Dixon is the former editor of Boxing News and has covered the sport for nearly two decades. He was the ghostwriter for Ricky Hatton's recent bestselling autobiography, War and Peace, and is a regular pundit on Sky Sports' boxing shows.
Tris joins Steven on this episode to talk about his life so far and how he turned his passion for the sport of boxing into the words that have since inspired so many to see it in a new way.
KEY TAKEAWAYS In the formative years of life, many are striving to prove themselves in physical ways. This can lead to the creation of people who attack, and people built to defend. It's sometimes best not to burn ourselves out in pursuit of physical perfection. Our bodies require rest between sessions, and reflection upon what we have achieved. It's the same with sparring. The perception of boxing is often one of violence, but it also a discipline that teaches control, self-care, fitness and self-development. Finding contentment and peace is the way to true happiness. Chasing an idea of happiness is ultimately unattainable.
BEST MOMENTS
'There are parallels between business and boxing'
'If you're prepared to put yourself out there and box, you can confront a lot more in life'
'It's not about hurting each other. It's about learning'
'If you can just be, then that is the key'

As a player in the street-art space, Steven is constantly being asked about the impact of NFTs on the art landscape. In this episode, Steven talks to Andy Rogers, a digital artist, and Barney Broom, an author, about their digital collaboration project, and the impact of NFTs on the creative industries.
KEY TAKEAWAYS An NFT is a non-fungible token, akin to cryptocurrency, that allows a purchaser to own a digital artifact through certification means. While NFTs are currently the hot topic in the art and digital spaces, they are not expected to ever overtake or replace the more traditional forms of owning art. The possibilities of where NFT trading and purchasing can lead is very exciting. Many other sectors are embracing the opportunities to spearhead this emerging technology.

Steven talks to actor, TV personality and professional boxer, Jack Fincham, about his time on hit show Love Island and how he won, the effects of fame and how it has changed his life, and the amazing projects coming up in his future.
KEY TAKEAWAYS Fame is an addictive drug that changes life fundamentally. More guidance and advice is needed for those who enter the public eye - everything from emotional wellbeing to financial planning. Surrounding yourself with the right people, and whose path you wish to emulate, is the best way to make sure that people have your back. Fame and public scrutiny adds a number of layers on top of the person that we already were. We are sometimes forced to hide who we really are, which can be detrimental. To truly be happy, you have to find the right frame of mind - one that brings contentment, and never settle for anything less.

This week, Steven talks to renowned Academy-Award nominated filmmaker, Oren Jacoby, the director of the definitive study into the life of street artist, Richard Hambleton, 2017's 'Shadowman'.
Oren joins Steven for a very special conversation in which he discusses the vision behind each of his creations, how he has arrived at this point in his career, the future of film as a medium, and the artist behind the shadows in his ground-breaking documentary.
KEY TAKEAWAYS Documentary filmmaking is an incredibly difficult field to work in, as not only is funding not forthcoming, but once it has been found, the real work comes in the form of discovering the definitive truth behind a life and transforming it into a narrative. The art of film is bound to change as new technologies and platforms evolve, but what's truly important is making sure that they can be seen by people. As a filmmaker, we have the opportunity to mark our personal narrative voices out by fighting for the stories we believe in most. Value in art evolves from the politics in the art world. There is far more to establishing a monetary power in art than simply creating work. There are many factors, such as marketing and agency to consider.
BEST MOMENTS
'It's exciting work and we love it, and we're always delving into someone else's world'
'We have to hope that people will appreciate what's great about being in a theatre'
'I you have a huge hit, then people come calling for you'
'You don't win every fight, but you keep fighting for the stories you believe in'

There are many transferrable skills between sports and business. With this in mind, Steven this week talks to Nicola "The Burmese Python" about the lessons learned in her incredible fighting career so far, and how they can be used to apply to all kinds of challenges in life itself
KEY TAKEAWAYS If you can deal with rejection and attacks in a methodical way, then you are well set for a path into sports or business, namely sales. Many fighters have begun to transfer between disciplines so as to make a career out of what they love doing, not necessarily because they want to dominate another art form. There is much in the way of preparation when it comes to fighting, but not so much in what comes afterwards. More work needs to be done in helping fighters who finish in the sport. Restrictions need to be dismantled between males and females when it comes to training. There are too many preconceptions holding back equality in the sporting world.
BEST MOMENTS
'All fighters want to make a living out of their martial art'
'If I'm bad at ballet, maybe I'll be good at the complete opposite...'
'Enjoy every moment, enjoy your life. But don't get too comfortable'

Steven meets professional kickboxer and boxer, Ruqsana Begum, a British and World Kickboxing Association female Muay Thai boxing champion and captain of the British Muay Thai Team.
Ruqsana discusses the art of developing a winning instinct, and how it has taken her to the top in not just the sporting world, but also in business and life.
KEY TAKEAWAYS There are so many obstacles that we must overcome in order to succeed, but some have more to overcome than others, including cultural expectations. The toughest fights we have at any time in life, are the ones that rage internally. If we can defeat doubt and fear inside us, then we can conquer anything external. If people feel threatened by someone, then they often try to control the situation through intimidation or manipulation. It is in the darkest moments that we learn the most valuable lessons. Failure only teaches us how to better succeed.
BEST MOMENTS
'I was trying to discover my own identity'
'The greatest lessons we learn come from the toughest times'

This week, Steven talks to Dr Norman Turkowitz, an experienced dentist specialising in cosmetic dentistry in New York City - specifically the Manhattan area.
Dr Turkowitz joins Steven to discuss his association with street artist legend, Richard Hambleton - one that began twenty five years ago, and which saw the two men trade services in order to benefit the other.
KEY TAKEAWAYS Richard Hambleton was not always financially solvent. In order to receive essential services, such as grooming or dental work, he would trade services with professionals, such as Dr Turkowitz. True artists see the value in the talents of others. The simple act of exchanging money for services can often blunt our perspectives, but often, the trading of talent is far more valuable. Back in the day, Richard Hambleton was regarded as something of a local celebrity. His renown had grown through not just artistic circles, but also among other sectors of life and business.
BEST MOMENTS
'Your paintings become your currency'
'We are so moved by the Hambleton narrative'
'His talent was greater than all of us'
'If you have the chance, pick up as many Richard Hambletons as you can'

This week, Steven talks to renowned street artists, Temper, most prolific in the advancement of spray paint photorealism in the United Kingdom. He was the first graffiti artist to create a conceptual collection on canvas and revolutionalised portraiture in popular culture globally with his "The Good Die Young" concept and collection in 2002.
In this groundbreaking and highly exclusive interview, Temper discusses his doctorate in art, and the vital part he has played in the establishing of graffiti as a legitimate art form.
KEY TAKEAWAYS There has been a cross-pollination of graffiti into street art, which has subsequently shifted into a more commercialised form, which has led to collaborations with larger organisations. Larger corporations investing in street art and graffiti, allows the younger generations to own a small part of the movement, inspiring them to follow the cultural path later. True artists hear the clarion call from the first moments of life, and spend their existence in pursuit of creation and development. True satisfaction in our careers come from expressing ourselves artistically, and forming the messages we wish to send out into the world. What anyone else does, and how, should always be separate to our own choices.
BEST MOMENTS
'I was born an artist'
'I'm an artist firstly, then I' trying to be a human after'
'I have a conversation with each painting, and once it's finished, I move on to the next conversation'
'I've travelled around my brain like the universe'

This week, Steven talks to self-described bohemian, Nemo LIbrizzi, described by Paradigm Magazine as having an "innate academic curiosity and fearless need for adventure," making him "a true arbiter of cool".
Nemo talks about the projects he's been involved with since his days as a graffiti artist, as well as the art market and world of culture surrounding it in 2021.
KEY TAKEAWAYS Artists should not always be labelled so under a single designation. Nemo's interests lie in many different areas and fields, and removing the labels allows him to float freely between his passions. Many artists we consider to be great today, are the ones who express themselves, and have this expression recognised later. Great artists tend not to fit within the confines of what is popular at the time. Graffiti and street art, while slowly coming to the fore, have not yet truly taken their place in the hierarchy of artistic expression just yet. When confronted with darkness, the true visionaries use the fear and emotional reaction, to create something beautiful.
BEST MOMENTS
'I've always made some kind of art or writing'
'Anything artistic, creative, or culturally meaningful - you can count me in'
'Art history has always been the passing of a torch'
'Street art was the most important movement of the 80's'

This week, Steven talks to fine artist, sculptor, and graffiti pioneer Kelly "RISK" Graval, the man Aerosmith famously called "Risk is to art, what Aerosmith is to Rock & Roll".
RISK talks about his background, how he discovered his identity through art, and how artistic expression is the ultimate reflection of the place we're at in life.
KEY TAKEAWAYS Graffiti and street art was formed on the streets as part of marking territory. In the early days, to mark someone else's territory generally resulted in reprisals. Our artistic identity is a construct built upon the influences and aspirations we experience in our formative years. Our artistic expression is a reflection of the life we live. During our angrier and more experimental years, it's reflected in the work we produce. When we find peace in ourselves, the art carries that message outwards. Collaborations with fashion brands or sportswear brands are not so much an aspirational goal for artists, but more of a rite of passage that generally denotes success has been achieved.
BEST MOMENTS
'I hid myself in my drawings'
'Collaboration is a rite of passage'
'We grew up in the gang culture'

Ben Eine is one of the most successful street artists in the world and is regarded as a pioneer in the exploration of graffiti letterforms. Originally a graffiti writer, Eine started his career over 30 years ago, leaving his first tag all over London before developing his distinct typographic style.
Steven talks to Ben about the home of street art, and how it should be used as a tool to revitalise communities, how all street art is the art of "getting over", and why your passion should always be your driving force.
KEY TAKEAWAYS Street art has the power to enliven a place, and empower communities. It should be used as a way of revitalising a place that needs colour. If you have passion, belief and self-motivation, then money and renown isn't that important in our quest to create. The governing bodies who control society are doing a bad job of inspiring and caring for us all. It is up to us to inject positivity and beauty into the world. Discipline gives us a sense of self-worth. Pursuits such as sport and art grant us ways to focus and connect with others, inspiring us to work harder on being the best versions of ourselves.
BEST MOMENTS
'I believe that street art should be in poorer communities - where they need an injection of colour'
'Graffiti and street art is about the art of getting over. It's about getting your name and message up'
'I had a passion and a belief'
'We inject colour and interest into boring grey walls'

This week, Steven talks to street art legend, Alan Ket of the Museum Of Graffiti in Miami, about the power of street art, how the narratives and stories behind a piece are as intoxicating as the piece itself, how the streets themselves have influenced the way that art is expressed, and the ways in which life's journey is shaped by our artistic sensibilities.
KEY TAKEAWAYS Street art helps to not just add culture to the landscape of the streets themselves, but also aids in imbuing a sense of culture to minds and souls who may not otherwise be exposed to art. Art is all about a story. We don't necessarily become intrigued by art because of the way it looks or the way it makes you feel. We become intoxicated by the stories behind the pieces - of the artist and background itself. There comes a time in life, a bridge between youthful bravado and experimentation and the person we wish to become, when we must make a decision to take life and business more seriously. Artists cross over into the public conversation when they take on that air of celebrity. When you suddenly become part of the zeitgeist, your name suddenly becomes the conversation itself.
BEST MOMENTS
'People get pulled into art because of the narrative and story'
'Many of us who grew up in that are in NYC, ended up suffering from PTSD in a way'
'Success is not a destination. It's a journey'
'I don't bet on the trend. I bet on the history'

This week Steven talks to London Watch Show co-founder and creative director, Charles Groom, along with wellbeing entrepreneur and car collector, Tom Exton, about the power of passion assets, and how aspirational living keeps minds keen and hungry, and urges us on to do better in all areas of life.
KEY TAKEAWAYS Passion assets generally cross-pollinate. Those who like the finer things in life, generally have a more aspirational portfolio, and are always on the look out for more. People aren't just interested in the luxury items themselves, but the story in life, of how these things are obtained. Passion assets aren't just about status. Items like this are valuable and secure investments, and tend to rise in value as time goes on. If people think you're doing well, then they'll be instantly curious about the path you took to get there. Success is attractive.
BEST MOMENTS
'That could be the inspiration you need to start a business'

This week, Steven talks to Scotty Stacks, one third of South London rap trio, The Manor, about the effects of the pandemic upon the arts, how he and the band have developed an entirely new business model in the wake of the disruption, and why you should never judge a book by its cover when it comes to making your mind up about people or places.
KEY TAKEAWAYS COVID has devastated the music industry, and left many aspiring artists in desperate need of a lifeline in order to survive financially. The re-opening of the country will see an explosion in the creative arts. The music business is heavily skewed to favour established, larger artists. If new artists can be seen as start-up businesses, the monetisation side of streaming and digital means that the returns are not practical. Just because people don't talk with a specific accent, or come from a certain place, you should never discount the beauty of their soul, or their potential for greatness. There seems to be a shame associated with people who want better things for themselves, but why wouldn't you? Never be ashamed of wanting more.

Steven is in conversation with Marc Craig, a contemporary artists and founder of the Marc Craig Gallery, about the places from which he draws inspiration, how he entered the art sector and how his own art has evolved over time.
KEY TAKEAWAYS Marc's art is described by himself as an unconscious language of symbols that is constantly evolving, that adds together to create a visionary adventure and journey. All artistic inspiration is a subconscious appreciation of the imagery and design that sparks our imagination throughout life. There is always a hallowed time in any artist's day, when all the wheels seem to click and imagination fires on all cylinders. It is during these moments that the true creativity reigns. Things in general life enter into our space and disrupt the road for us. We can either allow ourselves to be derailed, or we can embrace the disruption and use it to follow a new road.
BEST MOMENTS
'My art is doodle-esque appreciation of surfaces'
'There are many artists out there who have this process'
'The stuff that pours out of me just blows me away'
'What's within your power to make a creative choice that means you're choosing to go with the flow'

Steven talks to undefeated boxer (19-0) Archie Sharp, about the lessons and the learnings that have carried him through life and his sporting career, how he has achieved a mind-set that has led him to triumph consistently, and how the world of sport and its many challenges can be adapted to life itself.
KEY TAKEAWAYS Social media has become a huge part of life, and a deciding factor when it comes to renown and presenting a public image, but we must never let it take over our lives. There are the occasional stars who rise up to the ranks of pro without much effort, but there is never a substitute for hard work and rising through amateur ranks. To get to the top of any profession, you need to put in the hard work - you must develop belief and mind-set. This applies to boxing and business. If you can't control something, then embrace that. You can't hope to be in control of everything in your environment. The important thing is to gain mastery over the things you can

This week, Steven talks to professional boxer and personal trainer, Dan Morley, about life inside and outside the boxing ring, the places he looks for inspiration and motivation, the lessons transferrable between the world of sport and business, and what the boxer's journey between amateur and pro is really like.
KEY TAKEAWAYS No professional ever starts in the lap of luxury. They al begin at the bottom and must, literally, fight their way to success. The wins along the way to the top always feel sweeter and more earned if we've worked for them. Dedication reaps satisfaction. The rewards in boxing can be huge, but that's because the risks we run are far greater. Boxing is dangerous and leaves you open to such things as head trauma, so it's only right that the rewards are large. We conquer our fears and master life's skills by putting ourselves in positions of unease. Being brave enough to face down the unfamiliar can lead to mastery.
BEST MOMENTS
'I thought "this must get easier". I can assure you, it doesn't'

This week, Steven has an empowering discussion with Chloe McNiven, a professional dancer and entrepreneur, about the ways in which she rose from the ashes during the devastating effects of the pandemic, and found a new path in life when all seemed closed to her.
Chloe is the epitome of someone who takes a negative and turns it into a positive, and has it her mission to help others and do good in the world. In this week's show, Chloe tells you all about how and why it's the way forward for everybody.
KEY TAKEAWAYS We take inspiration from those who do astounding things. In turn, we provide inspiration to those who need it. It's a chain reaction that helps others to get through the tough times. When challenge strikes, we all have a choice. We can let it beat us, or we can rise to face it. In that moment, the person you become is the authentic you. All we can ever hope for in life, is the opportunity to do good, to be the best we can be, and to serve others. This is the guaranteed formula for happiness. Pain is never a bad thing. Pain is the reminder of where we don't want to be. Pain is the thing that guides you away from failure.
BEST MOMENTS

Steven talks to street artist and designer, Marcus Method, known for applying the design theories and drawing philosophies he learnt in architecture and combined it with the graffiti work he was producing at the time.
Marcus talks about the street art space in general, how he found his own personal style, the ways in which social media can affect the ways that artists create, and why it's okay to make money in art.
KEY TAKEAWAYS Architecture contains a simplicity of design that must be instantly communicable to anyone viewing it. Marcus has adopted this approach to his own style and work. Social media is a gift in some respects, and is a useful and necessary tool. But there is a danger of allowing social media to influence the way you create and the output you produce. Creating for our own satisfaction is one thing, but if we truly wish to make a career out of art, we have to embrace the monetary side of things. Creativity can sometimes be stalled if we find ourselves too satisfied. Being happy is about enjoying the journey to the next point in our creative lives.
BEST MOMENTS
'I've been concentrating on quality over quantity'
'The idea is to make things as simple as possible'
'If you want to be an artist, you've got to make money'
'Be happy with the journey'

This week, Steven talks to groundbreaking designer and artist, Gary McQueen, about the innovations currently sweeping through the fashion and creative industries.
In particular, Gary discusses the ways in which technology is shaping the way we access creativity, and how all great creations are built upon storytelling.
KEY TAKEAWAYS Progress in the world is always taken further by the great thinkers who see the possibilities and opportunities in places where others do not. Great art, no matter which sector, always comes across more easily to others if there is a clear narrative behind it. We pay tribute to those who shape us and teach us, by acknowledging their effect in our own work, and inspiring others to go back and recognise their achievements. Unless we specifically create with others, then the act of creation itself can be a lonely place that requires us to withdraw and fully immerse ourselves in a project.
BEST MOMENT
'Entrepreneurs always seem to find a way to push through barriers'
'I've got to translate that feeling into something tangible'
'Everything I do is based on storytelling'
'When you're a creative person, it's quite a lonely place to be'

This week, Steven talks to artist Naomi Wallens, one of the standout artists at the Saatchi Gallery in 2020, and whose sculpture, photography and painting work is fast becoming one of the most recognisable and sought-after in the art world.
Naomi talks about the business behind the creative industry, how she leapt from a corporate role into the art world, and the importance of happiness and fulfilment when it comes to our path in life.
KEY TAKEAWAYS We sometimes do not begin in the field to which we are called. It takes time to discover the pursuits that ignite our passions. Sometimes investments into our artistic brands do not pay off in the short term, but play a huge part in the evolving respect we accumulate - allowing our brands to become recognisable and trusted. There is no greater pleasure in life than seeing someone fulfilled in the things they do. We are conditioned to believe that money is the real aim in life, when in fact, fulfilment and happiness count for a lot more. When you find your true path in life, the energy you produce from feeling happy and fulfilled will cause more good things to happen to you. The universe works in far greater alignment
BEST MOMENTS
'I followed a journey that was normal for the world I grew up in'
'You either make your own plan or you become someone else's'
'You see your kids' journeys, and it inspires me and the things I put into my own work'
'If you allow yourself the liberation to be who you want to be, you get luckier. The universe works better with you'

Steven talks to one of the world's most successful and renowned photographers, Chris Fallows, who has travelled the world and captured some of the most iconic and breathtaking wildlife images the world has ever seen.
Chris talks about the unique relationship between photographer and subject, the issue of humanity's negative impact upon the environment, and how we must educate ourselves about the natural world to truly understand our place in it.
KEY TAKEAWAYS Every image tells a story, not just about the subject, but also about the person who has taken that trip, has embarked upon that adventure, with one goal in mind - to capture something truly magical Wildlife photography is the end result of a relationship built between the photographer and the animal. It is the proof that at one time, a man and an animal trusted each other enough to allow their worlds to collide. Unless we change our ways, we will surely destroy the natural world, and piece-by-piece, dismantle the last frontiers of the planet - the places where true beauty lies. Many animals are given a bad reputation by the uneducated, who assume that a single attack upon humans represents the entire species.
BEST MOMENTS
'You're able to have intimate relationships with these animals, and a lot of my images are an end product of that'
'The amount of experiences you must have had behind that lens...'
'We need to wake up and we need to wake up right now'
'If you talk to someone, you look them in the eye, and I like to photograph animals by using the same connection'

Steven is joined by professional boxer, Jordan Reynolds, to discuss the similarities between the world of business and sport, how the travelling community have come to represent the dominating players in the sport, and why your background is never a barrier to where you want to be in life.
KEY TAKEAWAYS Businessmen and boxers have much in common when it comes to mindset. They both must possess determination, skill, perseverance and strategy. For a long time, the fighters from the travelling community have been content to rule the amateur leagues, but now, they are breaking through to the major competitions and dominating there. Those at the bottom of society know how to fight the hardest, plus they appreciate success far more when it arrives. Just because your beginnings are humble, doesn't mean your future has to be. Half the battle in life, sport or business, is in the preparation, and the strategies employed on the day. Never discount the value in being ready.
BEST MOMENTS
'These are the conversations I'm really passionate about'

Steven talks to Woodbury House non-executive director, Marcus Vinton, about his journey through life, his ethos, what spurs him forwards, and the value of real-world experience when it comes to life and business.
KEY TAKEAWAYS You can never take the advantages that real world experience bring. Recognition on paper can only take you so far. You earn far more by being out in the world. Always be looking for opportunities, always be curious. Never be content, and keep your eyes on what's ahead of you - not behind Technology has allowed many more diverse voices to be heard.

You can always climb higher by associating yourself with the circle of people to which you aspire.

'If you can identify and nurture talent at a young age, then that's a fantastic thing'

This week, Steven talks to entrepreneur, boxer, and start of Absolutely Ascot, Alfie Best Jr, about the ways in which boxing can give you confidence and control, the importance of discipline, the transferrable lessons between sport and business, and the family legacy that drives him forward.
KEY TAKEAWAYS Boxing is all about discipline and control. There are many lessons that are transferrable from the world of sport to the world of business. Discipline allows us to be the best version of ourselves, but also gives us the edge when it comes to competition - in business, life or sport. The travelling community is often looked down upon, and find themselves at the short end of prejudice. But they are an entrepreneurial people, and often maligned for no real reason. Pressure pushes us to do better. By associating with those to whom we aspire, we are fuelled into being the best version of ourselves.
BEST MOMENTS
'I love boxing from the bottom of my heart'
'It shows you how disciplined you need to be in order to do well'
'Business has been instilled into me'
'We're an entrepreneurial brand of people'
'There's immense pressure on me, but only because I want to do better'

This week, Steven talks to one of the most popular comedians, DJ’s and television presenters in the country, Melvin Odoom, perhaps best known for winning the Strictly Come Dancing Christmas Special in 2016.
Melvin joins Steven to talk about what it takes to be a presenter, how to conquer your fears, and how best to connect in a new, digital world.
KEY TAKEAWAYS One of the most important ingredients in being a presenter of any kind, is to have a burning passion – an intense love for what you’re doing. In general, those who are the most successful are the ones who’ve conquered their fears about communicating with others. Prepare and develop as you go along. Mistakes feel like the end of the world to us, but to others, they are tiny, forgettable moments. Never be afraid to fail. Others are not judging you as harshly as you’re judging yourself. Social media can be a blessing and a curse. It can be used as a tool, but we must remember that it is just that. It needs to serve us.
BEST MOMENTS
'Communication is key. You have to love what you do’
‘It doesn’t have to be right. It just has to be funny’
‘If you’re a salesman, then you’re actually a performer’
‘As human beings we forget that our phones are a tool’

This week, Steven talks to Blek Le Rat, one of the first graffiti artists in Paris, and a man who has been described as the "Father of stencil graffiti", and with a career spanning back from the beginning of the 1980's that has attracted the attention of not just the authorities, but the likes of Banksy.
KEY TAKEAWAYS Visionaries influence emerging talents. Sometimes all it takes is a spark of genius at the right time, to set us off on our own creative journeys. Blek Le Rat took the creative jumpstart in New York and across Europe, and began the graffiti art scene in Paris, pioneering the art form and bringing it to one of the most culturally enlightened cities in the world. When we translate an art form, it's important that we put our own mark on things. Street art in different cities needs to reflect that particular city itself. Art is seen as a safe haven for investors, where money is not just be stored, but thrives and grows. Art has, and always will be, one of the most valuable commodities for investors.
BEST MOMENTS
'It was something so strong in the street'
'The only contemporary artist I bought was Richard Hambleton'
'I didn't want to imitate American graffiti, because Paris is a different city'
'There's so much buzz about the street art sector'

In this week's show, Steven talks to Joe Fournier, a man who's not only conquered the entrepreneurial world, but also the world of sports. As well as selling his fitness business to a FTSE 100 company, Joe has also taken up professional boxing, having signed with Hayemaker Promotion
KEY TAKEAWAYS You don't get to associate with the biggest players in the game unless you mark yourself out as a worthy opponent in both business and sport. Anything you do in life, you'll always find people that big you up and pull you down. The art of thriving is learning how to read these people and react accordingly. Boxing isn't just about sportsmanship,. It's also about showmanship. Never discount the value of a big personality and a big name. You grow by taking risks. Even those at the top of the wealth pile are still only maintaining that position by speculating and investing.

Steven talks to artists, Eve De Haan, a young London based artist with an incredible appetite for creativity. Her degree in Theology has informed and influenced her work, developing a strong body of installations which examine concepts of change and the imprint technology is having on youth culture.
KEY TAKEAWAYS The materials we use as artists, can dramatically alter the message behind the piece. The bare essentials we employ can lead to a new interpretations. Meanings change. A word now could mean something completely different in time. It is this concept that lies at the heart of Eve's work. When we arrive in the world, we have an instinct to make a mark on it somehow. That instinct is best expressed through art. Everyone has a different understanding of what balance is. It's not always necessary to separate the different elements of ourselves in order to see this.

In this week's very special episode, Steven talks to the legendary Tony McGee, photographer, fashion icon, filmmaker and one of the most influential voices of the 20th and 21st century.
In this conversation, Tony tells you all about how he's risen to the heights of incredible success, the lessons he's learned along the way, and some of the most fascinating and insightful stories about the iconic characters in his life.
KEY TAKEAWAYS People can realise how great life can be if those who have enjoyed success take thew time out to share that good fortune with others. Money does not always guarantee success. A fine example of this is in the football world, where players are paid exorbitantly, and yet still do not come up with the goods on a weekly basis. The art of communicating love and desire through your lens is built around the concept of "Daily Love". It's falling in love with your subject (platonically) for the day only, and bringing that out in your work. Starting a business isn't just about a great idea. It needs to have a practical, revenue-based way of staying alive and providing a healthy profit.
BEST MOMENTS
'Everyone should live in a state of complete harmony'
'I look into the eyes of God sometimes and I say "Please don't take me away just yet. I'm having too much of a good time"'
'That's not love. That's superficial nonsense'
'To worry about debt is the beginning of the end of many artists'

In this week's show, Steven talks to Remi Rough, a street and gallery artist from South London who began in the 1980s, before making the move to gallery art. Remi's most famous works are his abstracts which have been exhibited in Hong Kong, London, Los Angeles, Paris, Perth, and Tokyo.
KEY TAKEAWAYS Graffiti art was the first form of social media. It allowed messages and ideas to be exchanged in a public forum, and still does. Graffiti art and street art are often held up as the same thing, but the fundamental difference is that they both speak very different languages. Street art is for everyone. Graffiti is coded for other artists. Street art is art with inbuilt codes, and meant to be appreciated by anyone with a taste for the visual. The real rewards in art come from people appreciating what you do. Art can be collaborative, but it is generally a lonely form of expression. Putting out into the world provides validation.
BEST MOMENTS
'Graffiti art was the first social media'
'Street art is a visual language but it's not coded'

In a continuing series of conversations with the pioneers of the street art movement, Steven talks to American pop and graffiti artist LA II, aka Angel Ortiz, known throughout the street art scene for his unique blend of influences ranging from Chinese calligraphy to pictograph-like cave paintings.
LA II talks about his story, his connection to the art world and those who inhabit it, his connection to Richard Hambleton, and the places from which he draws inspiration.
KEY TAKEAWAYS We take inspiration from the world we know and love best. For LA II, this was found on the streets of New York. This is why he remains in the city to this day. The way we are portrayed in the media is not always the truth.. The stories we leave behind can be twisted. Only those who know us best have the right to tell our stories. Fame is a strange game of chance. Sometimes it is sparked by the associations we form, which can lead us to bigger and better things, while the associations themselves remain influential, but obscure. The search for art and the expression of art, is a search for the truth. Art allows us to connect with an expressed truth, and by doing so, learn more about who we are.
BEST MOMENTS
'I'm still in New York - I'm a true New Yorker'
'He wasn't an addict - he was an artist'
'We wasn't high, we was busy tagging up'

This week, Steven talks to street artist and legendary New York graffiti artist, John CRASH Matos, whose mural works upon subway cars and dilapidated New York buildings is now regarded as one of the pioneering movements of the street art movement.
KEY TAKEAWAYS All artists are the result of a story that brought them to the moment in their life where expression was needed. Sometimes it's best to be educated in the stories behind the artists in order to fully appreciate their work. As an art form becomes more refined and accepted, its raw energy becomes diluted. Working because you're passionate about something is very different to working on a commission. In order to make a success of ourselves, the story has to begin with hard work. We have to keep giving away equity until the quality of what we offer becomes synonymous with our name. In the next year, street art, and the unrecognised heroes of the movement, are due to have their time, especially considering that art is now being seen as a safe haven in terms of financial investment.

This week, Steven talks to Mike Malbon, a former associate of street artist, Richard Hambleton, and an avid collector of his works. Mike joins the show to talk about the ways in which New York has changed, the crossover between all street cultures, and why the path towards your purpose isn't always the one you imagine.
KEY TAKEAWAYS The barbershop in society has always been a not just a place to get groomed, but also a meeting place for likeminded individuals. Mike has married this concept to his thriving business, Frank's Chop Shop. Finding your purpose in life is not necessarily something that happens early on in life. Sometimes we grow to realise our path by spending time in and around life itself. There is much that overlaps in the world of the streets, no matter which pursuit you're following. Skaters, street artists, musicians - they all thrive and survive on the streets, and share much common ground. Art has emerged as one of the safest havens in which to invest, in order to protect wealth. In times of recession and uncertainty, people stockpile artworks in order to save and protect money.
BEST MOMENTS
'I always knew I would be somebody'
'The barbershop has always been a hub'
'If you come and get the chop shop experience, you'll know exactly what I'm talking about'
'The market is in the right people's hands'

This week, Steven talks to contemporary artist, Harif Guzman, renowned across the globe for his work as a street artist in New York, which often appears in collage form, and which is known for exploring topics such as women, materialism and popular culture.
KEY TAKEAWAYS The streets themselves had a huge impact upon Harif and his artistic sensibilities and aesthetic. The sight of life around him informed the work for which he is best known. Harif's bravery in art came from his skateboarding background. in skateboarding you're encouraged to go for it and pick yourself back up when you fail. Drive is what propels us forward. It makes us want to embrace change and do better. Drive is what can take us to the next level and beyond. When you find your calling in life, you have to work out where you want to go and what you want to get from it. If you want wealth, optimise for that. If you want to create, make sure you create
BEST MOMENTS
'In New York, you've got to feel things out - work things out'
'You've got to go for it. You can't worry about looking stupid'
'What I do have, that a lot of people don't have, is drive'
'If you're not afraid to go for it - it pays off'

This week Steven talks to legendary street artist, Al-Diaz, a former collaborator with Jean Michel Basquiat, one of the most influential first-generation NYC subway graffiti artists, and now one of the world's foremost text-oriented street artists.
KEY TAKEAWAYS We should never accept life-changing information without conducting some form of investigation on our own. This is our world, and we have the right to be free. The world in which we exist informs our sensibilities, whether we like it or not. The world we see affects the world we create. Some people are born followers, while some are born leaders. It is the leaders who direct the change, positive or negative, in the world. Violence and conflict are sometimes romanticised, which requires careful moderation. Disseminating messages of aggression is a great responsibility, as it must never inspire others to follow this path.
BEST MOMENTS
'I find it interesting how that world shapes so many artists'
'There's more to the story than meets the eye'
'The world was one big fire after another'

In this very special episode, Steven talks to one of the world's most recognised street artists, Cope2, alias Fernando Carlo, renowned for his affiliation with the NYPD" and is also a user of "legal" graffiti, a style which originated in the Streetart world.
KEY TAKEAWAYS We draw our personal aesthetic, our likes, dislikes, our predilections and tastes from the world in which we live. Each moment is a chance to inspire ourselves. As one of the long-time pioneers of Streetart, Cope2 has seen the world change in radical ways. He has also been heavily influenced, as all good artists are, by the lifestyle and circumstances of his youth and environment. The Guernsey Speed Auction at Christie's in New York, helped to legitimise streetart as an artform, when it sold graffiti to buyers. It gave new meaning to artists, who realised they could now make a living from their work. When collectors buy a piece of art, they are also buying into the artist's story. This is why it is so important to bring your own narrative to your work.
BEST MOMENTS
'The energy was like a magnet - like I wanted to do it!'
'My playground was the subway yards'
'People use the streets of New York as a canvas'
'Having a history helps a lot. Collectors love to own a piece of history'

In this week's show, Steven talks about the security of art as an investment, and the importance of keeping ourselves informed when it comes to our financial wellbeing.
KEY TAKEAWAYS The ultimate decision of how our wealth is managed. The final decision about how your wealth grows and develops is up to you, so it's important to make sure you're well informed. The best way of starting the day is to put in the effort towards making our health and mental wellbeing a priority. Setting yourself up for the day in this way can positively impact the day ahead. Always remember that news thrives on negativity. Never be entirely consumed by headlines. Dig deep and find out the truth for yourself. Banks are set to implement negative interest rates, so other safe harbours are required in order to keep your money safe. Art is the most secure of these harbours.
BEST MOMENTS
'Reading and gathering information gives you power'
'The biggest thing you should be afraid of is not moving forward'

This week, Steven talks to British professional boxer, Jamie Cox, who held the Commonwealth light-middleweight title from 2011 to 2012. As an amateur, he won a gold medal at the 2006 Commonwealth Games.
Steven talks to Jamie about the will to win - the driving motivations that have taken him to the top in the sporting world - and how these same forces can be used in every part of life.
KEY TAKEAWAYS Sometimes the fact that we are unconventional is a strength. We can surprise people with our will to win and dedication. Using this will to win, we can overcome other perceived weaknesses. If you don't set effective goals, then you can lose the focus you need to get there. Focus drives us forward when things get tough. There's no such thing as a shortcut to success. You have to be prepared to put in the time and the work to get to where you want to be. Treat it like a marathon, not a sprint. Success requires sacrifice. You have to give up so much in order to reach the top, so make sure the things you miss out on are worth the things you gain.
BEST MOMENTS
'Focus on the goal and the money comes with that'
'I was always dedicated and worked very hard'
'It's more of a marathon than a sprint'
'This is what you need to do, this is what you need to think, and this is what you have to sacrifice'

Steven discusses the almost mythic sales technique - made up of three questions - that has supposedly helped Richard Branson to achieve so much, and how it can benefit you, no matter which area of your life in which you aim to use it.
KEY TAKEAWAYS No matter which business you're in, you are in sales in some way. Even if you're not directly selling a product, you are influencing a client in order to achieve a result. The technique can be broken down into three questions: Do you like the opportunity? Does it make sense to go ahead? Is it affordable? We must push through the procrastination levels that rise from time to time. Treat your willpower like your body. If we slack off, it can be difficult to find the momentum again. Stay on top of your mind-set.
BEST MOMENTS
'This can definitely help you if you're in sales'
'It might give you the encouragement to go forward'
'Do I like it? Can I afford it? And does it make sense?'

Keeping an eye on empowerment, Steven today talks about the importance of always striving to do better, always moving forward, and always crystallising our perception when it comes to the goals we hold dear.
KEY TAKEAWAYS No matter what our background is, or who we are in the world, we all thrive on that feeling of development and progression. Education, and exposing yourself to development environments is key to growing constantly. Applying this information and empowerment is vital. We cannot do things over and over again expecting that the results will somehow miraculously change. Take a clear look at what you're trying to achieve and take action to make the change. Many are realising that bonds, shares and other related areas are no longer as stable. Many are seeking art as a solid foundational asset class.
BEST MOMENTS
'If you can have a strong mind, fit healthy body, and that you're progressing financially, it will give you a lot of empowerment'
'The definition of wisdom is when you take the information and apply it to the area of your life that's most important to you'
'Where you are today is the result of all the decisions you've made'
'2021 is going to be a great year for the contemporary street-art market'

KEY TAKEAWAYS It’s a new year, and like most new year’s, people have the urge to start their goals and alter their mindset. To become successful you need to a well-rounded individual.

BEST MOMENTS
“If you’re living in your comfort zone then you’re very unlikely to achieve the ambitions and goals that you set out”

It's a new year and with it comes the opportunity to recalibrate in terms of mind-set and focus. In this episode Steven talks about the importance of affirmations and why now is the time to build reserves of positive energy.
KEY TAKEAWAYS Affirmations and talking with conviction can help lessons to ingrain themselves. Words that come from the heart are far more important. Incantations will allow you to see opportunities in a far more vivid way, allowing you to move more swiftly towards the goals you set. Creating a mission statement each year should be a requirement. It allows us to pinpoint our focus and constantly align with the goals we set as the year progresses.

Many sports professionals share the best qualities with people in business - they all share the will to win and the determination to push through the challenges that arise.
In this week's show, Steven talks to Harlem Eubank, one of boxing's rising stars, about his own will to succeed, the remarkably successful boxing career he's carving out, and the impact of his family's renowned legacy upon his outlook on the world.
KEY TAKEAWAYS It's important to carve out your own legacy in the world. The Eubank legacy is one that has inspired many to do better and push harder, but it's important to find that one thing you're good at. There is always room for growth, no matter how high we rise in the world. We can always refine, evolve and grow to be even better if we haver the determination to succeed. Goal setting is crucial to growth. We have to aim for something, or we aim for nothing. Set goals that keep you hungry, motivated and willing to work harder. Sometimes the skills we take for granted when we learn them, are the ones that help us to pull a win out of the bag when we need it most. Never ignore the wisdom of those who can lead us higher.
BEST MOMENTS
'I had the urge to test myself to my maximum and see what I've got'
'I want to get to the top. I want to fulfil my potential'
'There was a line in the sand and providing you get over it, you're going to bigger and better things'
'Put yourself in the position to learn and keep developing. The most value is how developed you are in the art form'

Steven talks to entrepreneur, actor, author, producer, and former rugby league professional, Keith Mason, about his incredible journey through life, including the challenges that have helped him grow, and the wins that have inspired him to push harder.
KEY TAKEAWAYS It's one thing to suffer a setback, but it's quite another to see setbacks affect those we love. It helps us to develop mental and emotional fortitude, but the ride is tough. It's hard for everyone to push through when things get tough. But we should look to others who have suffered much more, and take inspiration from the fact that out own troubles are sometimes not so tough. We are the ones holding ourselves back. The beginnings don't matter. Never let the past shape who you want to become. Each day is a new chapter with new possibilities and opportunities. Athletes and people in business share the same mind-set. It doesn't matter what happens to set you back, they find a way to push through and win. We are rewarded in life by moments of glory, be it trophies or successes. That one moment is the moment in which we arrive. We become a somebody.
BEST MOMENTS
'There's no manual for anybody to make that adjustment'
'This story is impacting people all over the world'
'What we put out there is realness'
'It was my goal to be a somebody'
'The only person that needs to believe in your mission is you'

In this week's show, Steven talks to friend, Lewis Burton, a man who knows exactly what it's like to be at the top, having been one of the country's most well-regarded athletes. But Lewis also knows the darker side of recognition, and has had to withstand some intrusive, and sometimes negative media attention. In this episode, Lewis talks openly about Caroline Flack for the first time, without the spin of the tabloids.
It's time to set the record straight, and in this show, Steven reveals the true side of Lewis Burton.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
Being an athlete requires dedication in all kinds of ways. Mental preparation is key, but sacrifices must also be made in order to achieve the required physical abilities. We should only ever take advice from those who know what the journey is all about. Far too many people think they have the right to hand out advice, especially on social media, when they have no idea of how things work. A lack of confidence can strike anyone down. Don't ever assume that just because someone is successful or happy that they don't have their own personal struggles. If you use social media for any length of time, you find yourself becoming increasingly disconnected from the real world. Ultimately this is detrimental to mental health.
BEST MOMENTS
'I'm not waiting for the other guy to miss. I'm bringing it to them'
'You're always looking at someone else thinking "II've got to be that", but they're probably looking at you and thinking the same thing'
'When you have cameras in your face it makes you feel very vulnerable'

In this week's show, Steven talks to Maximillion Cooper, the creator of Gumball 3000, which not only encompasses the famous road trip event, but also a collection of companies including apparel and charities.
Maximillion discusses the journey that took to him to where he is now, as well as the unique perspective on life and business that has allowed him to accumulate an incredible portfolio of art and wealth through focussing on the things he loves.
KEY TAKEAWAYS Following your passion is about recognising your aspirations and studying the people who have the life you want. It's a case of determining to do everything to achieve that life for yourself by following in their footsteps. Sometimes the more informal routes through education can provide you with that sense of hunger and competition that makes you want to do much better. We only get one chance at life. Every day wasted is a day we can't get back. We need to use our time here wisely and follow our passions whenever we can. No business in the world has ever experienced plain-sailing throughout its life. Every business has its share of challenges. It is how we deal with them that marks us out as great. Never see a setback as a failure. See it is an opportunity to go another way. Chances come at any time. Be open and willing to embrace change and learn from the setbacks.
BEST MOMENTS
'It gave me a taste for that life - wanting that life'
'I thought - I've got a ton of money in my account, what shall I do with it? I did a racing driver's course'
'I want to live life - give it go - let's try it!'

This week on The Steven Sulley study, we have our first ever professional Tennis player on the podcast; Davis Cup champion James Ward! We talk about James’ career, what prompted him to get into Tennis and how his business is dealing with corona virus.
We also talk about the mindset of an athlete and how transformative this can be for many, not just those in sport.
KEY TAKEAWAYS James started playing Tennis at a young age. He played football at the same time but then made a conscious decision to go down the tennis route. James admits that the last couple of years of his education did suffer somewhat because of his Tennis playing. He left at 16 and moved to a Tennis academy in Spain and fully focused on his career. Recovery for athletes is pivotal. James says there are many different things that work for people and to focus on what you personally find works rather than doing things for the ‘sake’ of it. James and Steven believe that if you do the right things they come back to you. In a sense like a ‘law of attraction’. It is very important to portray yourself in the right way on social media. Some sports people actually end up making more of a career of being in the public eye than in sports! After suffering set-backs it would have been so easy for James to turn to unhealthy coping mechanisms. He says it's the support he has around him and the morals he was brought up with that makes him pick himself up and have the right attitude to keep moving forward.
BEST MOMENTS
“You need to focus on something at that young age or you get left behind really quickly”
“The biggest challenge is not letting it go to their head”
“You’re giving yourself the best possible chance to get back to the level you were and hopefully even better”
“A lot of kids are basing their appearance, their achievements on what is actually a fake life”

Today is truly a heavyweight interview, as Steven talks to pro-boxer, and star of Netflix's The Game Changers, Bryant Jennings, who joins the show to discuss his life and career as a fighter, his associations and work with some of boxing's elite, his outlook towards health and how it has, and is, shaping his journey, and the importance of learning how to live properly.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
Great fighters surround themselves with the best. Not only do they find themselves pushed to their limits, physically, but also mentally. It's a relationship that teaches each participant much about the ways in which we can be better. As elite athletes we are so focussed on the moment that we often don't take the time to appreciate the size of the moment itself. It takes a huge leap to gain that outside perspective. We learn to live by living. When you rack up experience in life, it makes you appreciate different things. With experience comes wisdom, and a deep respect for differences. The smaller side roads we come to appreciate are what shape our journey later in life. Many of the obstacles we find ourselves having to overcome are mental ones. If we do not feel the need to conquer, then we assure ourselves of that. We should always seek to align our promises and our values to those who are honest. We only get so many chances to tie our names to an ideal - make sure we tie it something we trust.
BEST MOMENTS
'I'm conditioning a superstar instead of focussing on me being a superstar'
'I can create the energy that I need for myself'
'Over time I learned how to live'
'I'm passionate about being truthful'
‘It’s healthy to challenge things and not be censored because of it’

ABOUT THE HOST
The Steven Sulley Study is my take on success. My view is you should have multiple focuses to be a well-rounded individual. Success shouldn't be just one thing like money, for example, it should also consist of a healthy fit lifestyle and thriving relationships.
As a person who has made a success in life and also made huge cock-ups I feel I can offer suggestions and tips on how to become successful or at least start your pursuit. My 'Study' has taken resources from reading and education plus being around, my perception, of successful people and I, know a lot of successful people from all walks of life.

Steven talks to The Pink Coconut's Laceinne, a natural birth and parenting advocate, and proponent of encouraging us all to live more boldly, more compassionately, more truthfully, and in a far more healthy way.
Laceinne discusses the importance of starting our children on journeys of health and wellbeing from birth, and how we as parents can make a true difference to their lives, as well as the ways in which can take care of ourselves as parents in the most wholesome way.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
Many people have strong opinions about breastfeeding, but this is a matter of education, Breast milk is nutritionally complete, and the practice helps to connect a mother to her child. We owe it our children to give them the best start in life. As their DNA forms, they must be given every chance possible, from the air being breathed, to the water and quality of food being consumed. Raw foods are the most nutritionally complete, because they are unadulterated, and free from the process of human intervention. We should always try to eat whole foods when possible, and raw is even better. Even the act of cooking helps to break down the nutrients. A typical meal can take up to 24 hours to digest. By practising intermittent fasting, we give our body time to digest properly, as well as repair in the wake of the digestion. The health benefits of fasting are now being widely recognised.
BEST MOMENTS
'If we weren't meant to give it to our children, then we wouldn't lactate at birth. It's that simple'
'A lot of things in our life are so overcomplicated, and there's no reason for it'
'The more you heat up your food, the more you deplete the nutrients'
'Mind over matter, mind over your body, being in control - that's a major thing that fasting brings to you'

Woodbury House’s journey into the art world has been unconventional, in that Steven has never felt the need to conform. Sometimes the best journeys taken are the unexpected, the unorthodox, and the remarkable ones.
In this show, Steven reflects upon the journey so far, how Woodbury House has marked itself out as something truly unique in the world of art, and why it’s so valuable and empowering to focus on one thing, rather than spread our interests too broadly.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
Becoming an expert in every single pursuit of art is almost impossible. It’s far better to focus on one thing at a time and follow the things you’re passionate about. When you dedicate yourself to a single pursuit, your knowledge on that area will grow rapidly. That knowledge, used in the correct way, will intrinsically become more valuable. As markets mature, you mature as a professional in your sector. That maturity can only come by concentrating your focus in on one thing at a time. Focus will inevitably lead to dove-tailing into different areas. You will learn other, valuable insights through osmosis.
BEST MOMENTS
‘You might hear one thing that will change your life forever’
‘I’m certainly a student of life’
‘When you have knowledge, you have empowerment’
‘If you become empowered, other people will come towards you'

This week, Steven is joined by Kavan, otherwise known as “the Richard Hambleton lawyer” and official representative of the Richard Hambleton archive, to discuss the legacy of one of the world’s greatest street artists, as well as the exciting developments currently taking place, including an upcoming Richard Hambleton experience, coming to London in 2021!
KEY TAKEAWAYS
Interest in Hambleton’s work is about go supernova. Part of the reason for his attraction is the story behind the man, so eloquently expressed in the documentary, ’Shadowman’. So many people are put off by the highbrow image associated with art. The wonderful thing about Hambleton’s work, is that it is supremely accessible. The magic of art is that it is an entertaining medium. People are shocked to discover that they are consistently learning through a process of consuming culture and beauty. They key to involvement in art is to make someone feel that they are part of an artist’s journey. The more touch-points you have, the better it is. Simply purchasing a piece does not achieve this. Seasoned collectors or new collectors always look for strong provenance of a piece. What you buy is a piece of history, even down to its place in the world at any given time.
BEST MOMENTS
‘It was kind of right-place, right-time scenario’
‘We’re really only just now at the tip of the iceberg in terms of getting Richard’s story out there’
’That lives with you. You know when you’ve seen a shadowman’
‘Your tastes and interest are always shaped by your education’
‘It all plays into the rich tapestry that makes up the provenance of a piece'

With the upcoming launch of the VIP exhibition of Franc Palaia’s incredible Richard Hambleton photography retrospective at Woodbury House, Steven takes time this week to meet with Franc Palaia himself, to discuss the impact of Hambleton’s street art, its revolutionary effect upon the city of New York itself, and Franc’s own incredible journey as a creative.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
The walls of a city can reveal its cultural legacy. Visual imprints of a time in any city can be documented and recognised through the imagery found upon its streets and walls. Hambleton’s Shadowman series reflected the darkness and fear being felt in New York at the time. A great artists will always find a way to recognise the environment and soul of a place. Good art is designed to draw not just a visual reaction, but an emotional one. The Shadowman series inspired not just attraction, but fear. It was a perfect marriage of artist intent and the nuance provided by the environment in which it appeared. An artist’s legacy, upon death, tends to be more widely recognised five years after their passing. Once people realise that the work output is now limited for all time, the value grows exponentially.
BEST MOMENTS
‘Walls are the drop cloths of a society'
‘Even Richard said they scared him!’
‘A little voice told me, “You know Franc, I think this is going to be an important story”'
’People are hungry for art’

Straight from the new podcast studio at Woodbury House, Steven talks to special guest Gary O’Neil, former professional footballer, who played for the likes of Portsmouth, West Ham and Middlesborough, and who now acts as the Under-23’s assistant coach for Liverpool.
Gary talks about the importance of resilience, why we must always recognise sacrifice, and the life lessons that have not just steered him towards success, but which are now steering a new generation of players.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
Dreams are built on sacrifices. We must always remember that things others have to give up, so that we can fulfil our potential and find our place in the world. Strong relationships are the key to success. We all need support, emotional or otherwise, in order to be the best that we can be. Social media and its effects can be positive, but the negative effects can sometimes be crushing. It is important to keep it at arms-length until resilience is developed. A side of a player’s education that is often overlooked is the education of money management. Instilling a financial ethic into not just players, but anyone from a young age, is a vital component in their upbringing. The life of a player comes in waves. We reach a point where the opportunities come to us, but at a certain point, we must recognise the need to seek them ourselves.
BEST MOMENTS
’To have solid relationships around you is so important’
‘I was never really starstruck by footballers’
’There are pitfalls to being successful’
‘I keep learning, and keep developing myself, so that I can improve other people'

Steven talks to Seb Eubank, otherwise known as The AlkaLion, the son of British boxing legend, Chris Eubank, and part of a sports dynasty that has been a firm fixture in British culture for decades.
Seb discusses his outlook on sport and competition, his health regime and personal brand, and how we can ensure that we remain at optimal physical health in order to keep ourselves safe in this new world.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
Once we embark upon a spiritual journey we are faced with a choice. Seb knew that he could easily become famous because of his family name, but that it would interrupt the spiritual journey that he was on. The benefits of a plant-based diet are innumerable. Not only does it contribute to wellbeing and weight loss, but also kick-starts metabolism and increases energy. Vegan junk food is still prevalent, and is packed with ingredients that are bad for our health. Be careful when choosing your food. Just because it’s vegan doesn’t mean it’s healthy. Hydration is the key to wellbeing, especially in the mornings. Consuming water helps to flush our systems and ensure that we are set up for the day. Nutrition and health are the basic core principles of remaining healthy in the face of global health challenges. We need to give ourselves the best chance possible.
BEST MOMENTS
’The moment that you hear the name Eubank, regardless of who or where you are, you know what that means’
‘It’s like somebody who drinks all the time - they start to forget what the hangover feels like’
‘Being naive will eventually catch up with you if you’re not educated’
‘It’s about changing our lifestyle and having rules implemented'

The eternal debate continues around which is more important - sale or marketing?
They both have their place in any business, but as Steven discusses today, it’s all a matter of timing when it comes to their importance.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
Learning the art of sales is more important in the initial phases than marketing. You have to be able to chase leads and close them in order to build. Goals and vision are crucial. If you don’t have a target, then you won’t know which clients to pursue, or which type of income will be supporting you. Grit and determination are core elements for any sales team. Putting yourself out there, and living outside of your comfort zone, you build the resilience that will shield you from fear.
BEST MOMENTS
‘You’re going to be handed some gold, and you’re going to turn it into rubbish’
‘You need to have your goals and your vision intact’
‘If you’re going to kickstart your company, you need to have really determined people'

It’s very clear that the coronavirus is here to stay, at least for now. The realisation of this fact has led to much negativity, but there are always reasons for optimism - especially when it comes to the art market.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
The media seem to be doing nothing but reporting the negative aspects of the coronavirus, lockdown, and the affects it is having upon society and the economy. Many more people are surviving COVID, now that we have better treatments, and far more robust reporting system than we did have at the beginning of 2020. Art has seen a huge leap in popularity this year, especially in terms of investment. Art has become one of the safest havens in which to store capital. Follow the money. Those with capital are clearly, and provably, investing in art in order to secure their fortunes.
BEST MOMENTS

Some were surprised by the announcement that Floyd Mayweather is to fight YouTuber Logan Paul in a boxing match. But as Steven discusses in this week’s show, the positives far outweigh the negatives.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
Many professional sports stars adopt unusual strategies when their main playing careers draw to an end. It can be a hugely lucrative way to bow out. Mayweather has nothing left to prove in terms of financial gain or reputation. He is now at the point in his life and career when he can take these opportunities without regret. Entrepreneurs start companies, scale companies and then sell companies. It’s common in business, so why is it different for those whose business is their own brand and skill?
BEST MOMENTS
‘I’m travelling, experiencing different cultures and making more money. Why wouldn’t you do that?’

In this week’s show, Steven talks about how one small, bad decision, can interrupt your progress and derail the momentum you’ve spent so long building up.
KEY TAKEAWAYS Making the decision to party hard can lead to indulging in alcohol, junk food, and less of a desire to keep fit and train. All that hard work is suddenly on the line. Not taking care of yourself can lead to a drastic decrease in your mental faculties. If you can’t think, you can’t sell. If you can’t sell then the consequences becomes all too real. If you know that a decision you’re about to make will derail your momentum, get yourself out of there. Keep your focus on the progress you’ve made, and stick to it.

In the modern world, when words can mean so much, but they can also be so misused, we need to be careful about who we put our faith in. In this episode, Steven talks about the qualities we should be looking for in the people we look to for instruction.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
Social media has proved to be a curse and a blessing. Words can be taken out of context, torn from their original context, and misused. Everyone has a lesson to teach, no matter which walk of life they come from. Some people teach us inadvertently, but demonstrating the paths we do not wish to take. We all have our own paths to success. A method that works for one won’t always work for another. The only true common denominator in finding success is taking action.
BEST MOMENTS
‘I enjoy influencing. I enjoy closing a deal. I enjoy hustling. I enjoy scrambling around for a pound note’
‘Just because someone on social media talks a good game, does that really make them a mentor?’
‘Becoming a bit of course-whore isn’t going to make you wealthy'

This week, Liam Ridgewell, ex-Premier League footballer and entrepreneur, joins the podcast to chat with Steven about the mental and physical focus required to compete on a professional level, the passion and drive that pushes him on each day, and his vision for the future.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
Competing at the highest level requires a degree of not just mental fortitude, but physical wellbeing. By taking care of the body, we allow our minds the freedom to strategise effectively. No matter what the pursuit that burns inside of you, be it sport or business, always work towards it every day. Give it all you have, as you only have one life. We learn to deal with setbacks and opposition by listening to the voices of those who have walked the path before us. We must never discount the voice of experience, as it can guide us during our darkest moments. We can often approach decisions with a closed mind, or a predetermined outlook, but if we endeavour to drop the filter and view each opportunity as a unique one, we can open our lives up to incredible new possibilities.
BEST MOMENTS
‘If you want to get good at sales, look at the athletes who play at a very high level’
‘If you’re driven, no matter what it is, strive for it’
‘We build a brand so that we’re not perceived in a certain way’

The UK is officially in recession due to the aftereffects of the COVID pandemic, and Steven is excited for the opportunities we’re about to find. In this week’s show, Steven talks you through why now is not a time for anxiety, but action!
KEY TAKEAWAYS
Traders like volatility in the markets. It provides more opportunities for growth and gain. Sometimes the status quo can lead to a plateau. A salesman is someone who can effectively communicate a point and use the art of persuasion to get that point across and make a sale. Outside influences will try to convince you that this is a bad thing. The ones who will succeed and thrive during this period are the ones who never stop searching for success.

In this week’s show, Steven talks about the way in which social media has created a whole new set of perceptions in us all when it comes to the way we look upon not just the world, but the people in it.
KEY TAKEAWAYS Social media has allowed us to become as educated as we like. It’s also allowed us access to anyone we want, within reason. We must remember that we are always looking at an idealised view of someone through their social media channels. This can lead to a sense of inferiority, but remember that this perception is not the reality. When social media ceases to inspire, educate or motivate, we need to put it down. It’s not a tool to spark your jealousy or negativity.

In the wake of the Ted Cheeseman interview, Steven reflects upon the importance of generosity, of purpose, and of investing in making sure you're the best version of yourself.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
Chosen career paths don’t matter; all that matters is how people face their journey and overcome the obstacles in their way. Too many people are focussed on the material possessions you can attain through your career, instead of the aspirational version of yourself that you can reach. Success comes through perseverance, dedication and focus. If we keep pushing, and keep our profiles out there, you’ll always be ready when it comes time to land the killer blow.

Resilience doesn’t come from having an easy ride. You can only learn about picking yourself up, if you’ve been knocked down. In this week’s show, Steven talks about why rejection in business is actually a positive thing.
KEY TAKEAWAYS If you can learn anything from athletes, then it is the resilience you need to see a job through, and the will to never give up. In business, you will face rejection and objection at every turn. It’s all part of the learning process. You can only be taught resilience by facing challenges. A refusal isn’t personal. It’s a bridge towards a positive outcome. Business is a numbers game. Each time you’re knocked down, that’s one ticked off on your way to success.
BEST MOMENTS

ABOUT THE HOST
The Steven Sulley Study is my take on success. My view is you should have multiple focuses to be a well-rounded individual. Success shouldn't be just one thing like money, for example, it should also consist of a healthy fit lifestyle and thriving relationships.
As a person who has made a success in life and also made huge cock-ups I feel I can offer suggestions and tips on how to become successful or at least start your pursuit. My 'Study' has taken resources from reading and education plus being around, my perception, of successful people and I, know a lot of successful people from all walks of life.

Steven talks to professional boxer, and former Super Welterweight champion of Britain, Ted Cheeseman, about his journey as a pro-sportsman, how he keeps himself at the peak of his mental and physical powers, why admitting weakness doesn’t make you spiritually weak, and what inspires him to push harder.
KEY TAKEAWAYS If you’re in the correct mental state, and keep pushing yourself to be physically fit, then you become almost unbeatable. Mindset is everything. Young boxers always seem to want to rush through their career in search of success. The journey itself needs to enjoyed. Joy in what we do inspires us to be better. Demons only leave us when we address them head on. It’s not weak to ask for help. Becoming a slave to vices weakens us in every aspect of our life. Recognise that you have a problem and face it. Investing in ourselves doesn’t always mean financially. Resting, training, taking time out to enjoy the gifts of life; all of these things are ways of making sure you’re the best you can be.
BEST MOMENTS
‘Whatever you put in is what you get out’
‘As long as I’m fit, and my head’s there, there aren’t many people who can beat me’
‘I’m not a delusional fighter’
’The day I don’t think I can go all the way, I will retire'

In the lead up to the biggest show that Woodbury House has ever done, Steven is here to provide an update about upcoming events, including some exclusive news about Richard Hambleton’s incredible ’Nightlife’ works, and their appearance at the forthcoming London Frieze festival.
KEY TAKEAWAYS Many are talking about Hambleton’s work. He has become one of the most sought-after artists today, but the Nightlife pieces are still surprising to many. One of the most intoxicating things about Hambleton’s work, is the way that so many new admirers of his legacy are able to connect with his story. Some of the best works by artists are often the result of the pain they were experiencing at the time. Extreme emotions transfer to artistic expression.
BEST MOMENTS

Sometimes, when you’re entangled completely in business life, you lose that valuable sense of perspective that you get from taking a step back. In this way, the COVID situation has proved to be something of a positive, in that it’s allowed Steven to take a step back and count his blessings.
In this week’s show, Steven sits down with business partner Joe, and guest Lewis Burton, to reflect upon past successes, and to talk about what comes next.
KEY TAKEAWAYS Many in business are slightly more mature, and so when a group of passionate young men appear, all with purpose and clearly defined vision, it is remarkably refreshing. Success requires bravery. It also takes the recognition of opportunity when it comes along. Woodbury House will thrive and succeed because chances are being taken now, even while others may be resting on their laurels. The goal now is to educate, stimulate and encourage the conversation around art. But it must always be fun. People’s tastes begin to form when a pursuit is built upon these foundations.

It’s been a strange, disruptive year so far, but there are things to be thankful for. In this special hundredth episode, Steven reflects upon the things in life about which he is most passionate, including the incredible resilience of the art world.
KEY TAKEAWAYS With much financial instability, many institutions are looking for sound, bulletproof investment opportunities in which to keep their money. Art has become one of these havens. Unemployment is widely expected, due to the effects of the COVID outbreak. A depression is not just likely, but almost guaranteed. Sotheby’s have emerged with new ways to buy art, including the use of augmented reality, and their auction sales have raised over $360 million, despite the financial uncertainty. Art sales are bucking the trend. In the face of doubt and doom, art is being confirmed as one of the best ways to protect money.
BEST MOMENTS

This week, Steven discusses the concept of improving an idea to improve its value. This has never been better exemplified than in the art world, where even the simplest of enhancements can dramatically increase the value of the most common of items...
KEY TAKEAWAYS In life you can try to blaze your own trail, or you can take an idea or inspiration from something that someone else is doing, and try to make it better. It’s possible to overthink our ambitions. We don’t always need to reinvent the wheel in order to achieve success. Making money through property, by taking something that already exists and improving upon it to achieve a profit, is the most proven methodology. There’s a reason why so many in business are invested in property.
BEST MOMENTS
‘I always try to find lessons in anything I’m exposed to’
‘You can take something already existing, have a different take on it, and you can change the value of it quite dramatically’
‘Business doesn’t need to be overcomplicated'

Especially in the world of sport, the journey is short between being a supporter and a “die-hard” fanatic. Devoting your heart and soul to a team, or even a different type of separate entity can give you a sense of purpose, but it’s vital to understand that there are more important things in which to invest your life.
In this week’s show, Steven talks about the reality behind passions and pursuits, and talks about why it might be wise to step back once in a while in order to look at what’s really important.
KEY TAKEAWAYS “Die-hard fanatics” generally tend to know the history of their subject, the current goings-on, and hold strong opinions about the future. These opinions are born out of intense passion. We must understand that our passionate advocacy of anything will not deter its course. It’s the same for us. That win or loss should not deter us from our life’s course or mission. Leisure pursuits are a fundamental need for human beings, but they should never blind us to the things that really matter.
BEST MOMENTS
‘Regardless of whether that person or team wins in that moment, it’s not going to change my life’s mission’
‘Re-align your energy. Re-align your focus. Re-align your priorities’
‘Use that same amount of passion and knowledge to get yourself ahead’

In response to a question from his audience, Steven examines the principles behind his own “why”, revealing the driving forces that push him forward each day, and discusses the importance of recognising your own motivating purpose.
KEY TAKEAWAYS The true purpose of being, the why that drives us forward, should always be rooted in the development of ourselves; to become the best version of us that we can possibly be. Fitness and health are not the same thing. One always supplements the other, but they are entirely different disciplines. Money itself doesn’t bring happiness. What brings fulfilment is the opportunity to use money constructively. Increasing intelligence through education allows you to enter into more high-level conversations and discussions with more articulate thinkers, increasing the influence of your peer group.
BEST MOMENTS
‘Every now and then I think about what my purpose is’
‘If you’re sandwiching fitness and health together, you’re going to be a superhuman version of yourself’
‘The right people are going to gravitate towards you, and you’ll have better experiences’
‘Money is also the root of all goodness’

COVID-19 seems to have derailed many people’s journeys. No one could have suspected, when the year began, that such a widespread interruption would appear from nowhere. But life isn’t worse, it’s simply changed radically.
Now is the time to feed your soul, keep that positivity high, and remain on course to becoming the best version of you that you can be. In this week’s show, Steven discusses an empowering set of guidelines from the founder of Shake Shack, Danny Meyer, that may inspire you to look for the silver linings.
KEY TAKEAWAYS Becoming fabulously wealthy doesn’t necessarily make you happy in itself. It is the freedom that money brings, allowing you to follow opportunities and make choices, that can lead to happiness. Things you should be mindful of when you start an entrepreneurial journey are: Kindness - People will remember the way you make them feel. Intellectual Curiosity - How can you blaze your own trail? Work Ethic - Work as hard as you can, and make it one of your values. Empathy - Stepping out of yourself and into someone else’s feelings, gives you the power of understanding. Self-Awareness - Know your limits and strengths and use them to make each the best it can be. Integrity - Always keep your promises. Excellence is the art of recognising the things we do well each day, and then outperforming consistently in that area.
BEST MOMENTS
‘Becoming a trillionaire doesn’t make you better than someone else’
’Sarcasm, aggression and narcissism will never get you anywhere’
’The quickest way to success is a straight line’
‘Do the thing you do, but in a way that makes others feel great'

One of the most valuable life-hacks you can learn in sales, is the art of The Four Quadrants, a system you can use to prioritise your life, and which can help you to quickly recognise the parts of your life that need more, or less, attention.
As Steven explains, by mastering this art, you can rapidly re-order your life and take complete control over your time management.
KEY TAKEAWAYS The Four Quadrants we should be using to categorise each of our tasks in life are: Quadrant 1: The parts of your life that are not important and non-urgent Quadrant 2: The parts of your life that are urgent, but not important Quadrant 3: The parts of your life that are important, but not urgent Quadrant 4: The part of your life that are important and urgent
While we may be inclined to focus purely upon quadrant 4, it is in fact quadrant 3 that we should be aiming for in general. By working on tasks in that order, we prevent tasks from slipping into quadrant 4.
Less urgency means less stress. Stress only hampers your ability to operate effectively. Plan ahead and avoid that pressure!

The situation the world has found itself in has changed everything but it shouldn’t change your goals.
If you really want to get somewhere you will pivot, adapt and change your strategy to reach your goals and the lessons you get in life from observing and reflecting can give you the momentum and inspiration to move forward with purpose.
In this episode, Steven reflects on the importance of having a goal that you really want to achieve and always being prepared to get to it however you can.
KEY TAKEAWAYS Don’t change the goal change the strategy, it’s about ultimate determination to reach your goal. If you can’t reach your goal using your preferred strategy you will pivot and adapt because it’s always about reaching your goal however you can. Often you will get knocked back and if this means you give up on your goal then it wasn’t really a goal you were prepared to work towards and wanted. The free lessons you get in life from observing and reflecting can give you momentum, inspiration and tutorials on moving forward. The small things in life are those that set you up for the bigger things in life. If it’s really a goal you will get there somehow. When you have to pivot and stretch you become more dynamic as an individual.
BEST MOMENTS
‘Some people talk about it some people f#cking get too it’
‘It’s been about adapting and pivoting to hit the goals, still bring in revenue, create content, and serve our clients’

In this week’s special episode, Steven talks to Skip Archimedes, a former athlete who’s made it his mission to empower people through health and vitality, also focusing on improving mental health through positivity and achievement.
Skip’s story is an inspiring one, beginning with a childhood plagued by ill health, and transforming into a tale of resilience and courage that’s still playing out today.
KEY TAKEAWAYS Decreased workload makes the body weak. In Skip’s case, a childhood spent at the mercy of health issues was corrected when he fought through with exercise. We absorb life through three modalities: mind, body and spirit. They all require nourishment in order for us to feel accomplishment and happiness. Internet connection has created a false sense of nourishment. We absorb life through our senses, and yet demonstrably, internet connection feeds none of these. Health should be the foundation that we build our entire lives upon. It is the keystone to ensuring that we can always be present, and unaffected by the factors that suppress our competitors. Humanity is in need of a huge culture shift. We are the only species on earth that actively contributes toward its own destruction
BEST MOMENTS
’Nothing is going to electrify you like passion’
’No matter what your education is like, there are plenty of opportunities out there for you’
’Spirit opens you up to more life’
‘Health is our greatest wealth’
‘Make sure your cup of life is filled, and whatever spills over, we give back to life'

With a looming recession ahead, people are looking for safe ways to store their money, as well as increase the value of their wealth. The art market is largely being seen as one of these secure havens.
Certainly that’s the viewpoint of UK Investor Magazine, who interviewed Steven this week in order to get the facts about this rapidly-growing assurance, as well as some of the best ways in which art investors can get started.
KEY TAKEAWAYS The returns on even the lower end of Hambleton’s works now can be astronomical. Since his dealings began, entry level works have leapt in value from around £4k to £40k. First time investors would do well to research and educate themselves. Look for the up and coming artists whose works are about to explode in value and interest. The key to securing a rising star’s work is in asking three questions: Is the artist backed by a recognised gallery? Is the artist backed by a respected art dealer/family/collector? Is the artist backed by a recognised museum? It’s not always about buying the piece of art itself. It’s also about buying the experience and the story. Banksy is the perfect example of someone who imbues his pieces with a story, which is why he has become so beloved.
BEST MOMENTS
‘Buying art is like buying a property’
’If you’re ever going to buy art, try to buy into the people who created their genre'
‘It’s not just about the piece. It’s also about the story’
‘Every pound saved is a pound made in a recession'

Nobody’s perfect, but do we need to be told that, and especially by strangers?
After a particularly cruel experience lately, Steven reflects about the nature of negativity, where it comes from and why, and how you can rise above it as you continue on life’s journey.
KEY TAKEAWAY Part of the reason that people try to derail you with negativity, is to distract you from your missions in life. All that means is that you’re getting somewhere. People come at you when they’re unhappy with themselves in some way. It’s a way of elevating themselves in their own mind. The true greats don’t waste their time trying to bring other people down. They’re far too busy sticking to their plan and achieving greatness.

Interest in art investment is currently at fever pitch. With economies uncertain and fortunes on the line, people are in search of safe havens in which to build their wealth, and art is now being recognised as one of the most secure places out there.
In this week’s show, Steven shares guidance for those wishing to take advantage of the art gold-rush.
KEY TAKEAWAYS If you’re looking for investment-grade art, look into the status of the artist at recognised galleries, or through curation. It’ll help you to recognise the people that have made a difference to art history. There are risks in buying works by emerging artists, but if they take off, the returns can be incredible. As in everything though, there is no guarantee. All you can do is mitigate your risk by educating yourself. To accurately predict the future, you need to look at the past. The future is a reflection of what has appealed to us throughout history. Investing in art is similar to any kind of investment, in that it’s wise to diversify your interests. Again, prior education and understanding of your target is key. Providence is like an artwork’s logbook. It tells you the history of the piece, and acts as a pedigree. Your tenure as owner of the piece will become a part of that piece’s history, too.
BEST MOMENTS
’There’s a difference between good art and investment-grade art’
‘Even in times of adversity, people fly to commodities’
‘Diversify, but be careful not to die-worse-ify’
‘In events of crisis there is phenomenal opportunity'

Even though the mechanics of sales have changed over the years, the fundamentals remain the same. Now that we’re in lockdown, the art of selling has never been more important.
We can use this down-time to hone our sales skills, and in this week’s show, Steven talks you through one of the most tried and trusted methods in his arsenal; a system known as A.I.D.A.
KEY TAKEAWAYS Lockdown can be seen as an opportunity. It’s allowed us to focus our attentions on particular aspects of life, instead of being distracted. Certain words in your sales vocabulary can be instantly powerful. Developing your sales lexicon will give you a vital edge in the 10 - 15 seconds you initially have to snare someone’s attention. Logic and emotion should be linked in any sales pitch. Hook your client with logic, but involve them with emotion. An effective call to action will encourage your client to raise any objections instantly. It’s always best to get these objections out as soon as possible so that you can deal with them swiftly.
BEST MOMENTS
’Sales is everything. Nothing happens without a sales team’
‘If you lose someone at the outset, you’ll be boxing on the back foot’
‘Bridge the gap by getting their desire and excitement going’
’There isn’t really a right or wrong way. It’s about what you believe'

In this episode of The Steven Sully Study, Steven talks about the value of relying on your own due diligence to verify information and why you shouldn’t trust the opinions of everyone you meet. Steven talks about why we should steer clear of illegitimate information and the media, especially during the corona-virus outbreak.
ABOUT THE HOST
The Steven Sulley Study is my take on success. My view is you should have multiple focuses to be a well-rounded individual. Success shouldn't be just one thing like money, for example, it should also consist of a healthy fit lifestyle and thriving relationships.

The word is a turbulent sea of news, opinions and agendas right now. Everyone has a take on how the coronavirus and quarantine will affect world economies and the futures we’ve been building.
Steven isn’t here today to talk about conspiracies or doom-narratives. This week’s episode is a frank discussion about the value of art right now, the impact of what’s happening, and to reassure you that there are safe havens for investors in the world. You just need to know what to look for.
KEY TAKEAWAYS Money is never lost forever. It might disappear from one source, but that same money will end up in the hands of someone else. News outlets never focus on positives. they always go for negative sensationalism. If you can look past the noise and research for yourself, you’ll find that some markets are not just stable, but thriving. More self-made millionaires and billionaires are created during recessions than at any other time. It’s your duty to yourself and those you love, to be the one on the frontlines looking for those opportunities. Art is one of the safest and most bulletproof markets to be involved in, even at times of recession. And there’s no more secure division of the art world than contemporary art. Investments are generally made by our emotions, but you need to make sure they’re backed up by facts and figures. The art of investment is a collaboration between the heart and the mind.
BEST MOMENTS
’There’s always opportunities to grow, learn, and most importantly, become a success’
’If one door closes, another one is about to open’
‘You need to feel confident not to look at things emotionally, but logically’
‘Recessions come and go. Markets peak and drop. It’s the job of the investor to find out where that money’s going'

Steven looks at the phenomenal journey of Dana White, Current President of the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC), the largest mixed martial arts organisation in the world.
His journey has taken him from $0 to $7 billion and this episode looks at what it actually takes, the lessons you can learn and why you have to always believe in yourself and be the best version of yourself.
Others opinions and negative comments don’t have to be your reality the key is perseverance, focus and getting in the game because you won’t be a success if you never start, listen in and hear more.
KEY TAKEAWAYS Have an overwhelming belief that you can take yourself out of your current situation. Be prepared to work for free to learn everything you can about your chosen area. How far are you willing to go? In the early stages of any business, the demand on time, money and your energy is very high. You need to focus and persevere. You need to persevere, work your plan and be prepared to overcome any challenges you face, to reach your goals. Listen to your gut instinct. You need to follow your heart and blaze your own trail. If your gut says go ahead you need to listen to this and build on it No matter how successful you are negativity will always follow you. Life is not perfect there will always be haters and negativity you need to have the inner strength to push forward. If you are just looking for money you are in the wrong place. You have to love what you do and if you are passionate about it money will flow to you. People allow challenges and problems to become an excuse holding them back, instead use them as fuel to move you forward. You can’t become someone else. You need to be you; people recognise and value authenticity whether they like the message or not. ‘Get yourself in the game and the moment will show’ - Get yourself out there and the opportunities will come for you to move up to the next level.
BEST MOMENTS
‘Are you willing to work for free’
‘No matter what people are saying to me I’m going to find a way to win’
‘You need to build your inner strength’
‘Are you doing everything it possibly takes to be a success in the area you want to your mark in?’

This week on The Steven Sulley Study, Steven explains how we can take control of our habitual behaviours by shifting our paradigms. If we can take control of our paradigms we can overcome our mental and financial boundaries, unlocking our aspirations and creativity. Steven breaks down what our paradigms are, taking a deep dive into our emotions and reactions to break out of our restrictive routine.

In todays episode Steven speaks about the current Corona outbreak (COVID19)
Steven believes that it is very likely most of us may be affected by COVID19 in some way or another (catching the illness directly or helping loved ones and friends). The way we respond and deal with this is going to be the making and breaking of ourselves and business, at least for the short term.
Post-Brexit and the current political climate are two of the bigger challenges so far and have made for a very dramatic opening to 2020 (locally and globally). You may also have had challenges personally in your own lives. Steven is saying that COVID19 is just another one of these challenges and we need to adapt and overcome.
Steven has broken it down to 3 Things when reviewing news and social media on Corona virus. Mindset: Are you the type of person who will let the news, newspaper, personal relationships and social media ‘neg’ you out and affect you personally (and your business)? Steven feels it is ridiculous that we are affecting each other so negatively, allowing ourselves to take this negativity into our own decision making.
“This thing is not going to hold me back; I’m going to still plow forward and still going to achieve my goals. That is my mindset” -Steven Sulley
Health:Steven says this is the perfect opportunity to think about your health; This is one of the benefits to take away from this outbreak. If you weren’t self motivated previously, now is the time to find motivation (if only to better your own wellbeing if you do catch the illness). Avoiding all the negative behaviours that make yourself more at-risk with COVID 19 (smoking, drinking and obesity being 3 factors). Your U.S.P: Your unique selling point; some businesses are going to fail as a direct and/or indirect result of COVID19. Shutdowns, lack of traffic and change in behaviours and habits; businesses are going to struggle in a variety of areas which will affect the bottom line. Some businesses may have already been circling-the-drain and this is the final nail, others may be dependant on services and resources suddenly affected by the virus outbreak (unforeseen closures and halt on production essentially gutting a businesses ability to operate). In 2007 Steven was affected by the economic downturn in 2008 much as other people are being affected by COVID19. But instead of letting this swing him out of business; Steven used the media and negativity as fuel his business. He stayed informed so he could answer the problems and help the clients in the time of need. This was his U.S.P. and is why he succeeded whilst others failed.
“…if you are solutions driven…you can make more money in a downturn than ever before” -Steven Sulley

Steven has always aspired to inspire the younger demographic out there. With this mission in mind, it’s important to use the stories of others to inspire, motivate and educate the souls we’re handing this world to in the next generation. That’s why this week’s guest is perfect.
Becky Evans began life in Coventry, and could well have lived her life in obscurity, had not her passion, determination and drive spurred her to blaze a trail in the world. Becky is known as Queen B on Instagram, and has turned her passion for cars into an explosive career that has seen her attract the patronage and support of companies such as Red Bull on her journey towards what is surely destined to be one of the great fairy tale careers.
Becky joins Steven today to discuss her incredible story. It’s a conversation that’ll leave you inspired to chase your own success.
KEY TAKEAWAYS Never look back on a decision with regret. You can’t change the past, so embrace the path you’ve chosen, wholeheartedly. Success won’t come looking for you. You have to go out there and grab it. Becky was active in finding her place in the world. It was scary at times, but her passion drove her on. People write hobbies off as unimportant. But they give you purpose. They inspire you. They cause you to spend your free time on them. Find your passion and embrace it. Becky exists primarily in a man’s world. This has given her a rare insight into the way men work. Men can smell weakness in different ways. She knew she had to make it in a confident, authentic way. You sometimes have to spin a lot of plates in order to get where you need to be. It can be stressful, but the rewards are worth it in the end. So many people are trying to create their own empires. Make yours an empire that people are attracted to by always endeavouring to be on your A-game. The minute you get complacent is the minute you start to slip down. The biggest stifler of creativity is shifting focus. The people who move forward the fastest are the people who focus on what’s ahead, not on what’s at either side. Becky’s Five Points for creators are: Figure out exactly what you can do Why you are the person to do it What is your USP? Be consistent Collaborate For anything to be monetised, there needs to be a simple buy-and-sell element. You need to break your model all the way down to simple economics. Normalisation is Becky’s solution to the sometimes chauvinistic attitude she encounters. By increasing the visibility of women in her sector, it will eventually become normalised, and won’t be a “thing” anymore. Find out what your thing is. What excites you? What drives you? When you find it, work back from there. Find a way to make that thing your main focus in life.
BEST MOMENTS
‘From idea to execution - it was eight weeks'
’Nothing in your life will happen unless you go out there and do it’
‘A hobby enables you to be the person that you want to be’
‘If you’re sure, then you can pass that on’
‘You’re still focussed on your North Star’
‘Do not ever become complacent’
‘Your focus has to be yourself’

In four days’ time, Steven steps back into the boxing ring to put his skills and training to the test once more.
It’s a time for reflection for Steven who takes this opportunity to look back on some of the lessons learned over the past six years, and in this week’s show, he looks back at some of the highs and lows, the preparations, the body-hacks, and the reasons why he’s chosen now as the time to get back into the sport he loves and respects.
KEY TAKEAWAYS Steven hates to lose. He is very competitive and loves to win. If he does suffer a loss, then it’s important to him that he analyses what went wrong and why so that he can fix it for next time. One of the best methods of building stamina is to heel-sprint or run up a hill, which Steven likens to the sensation of being in a fight, as it builds endurance. People say you shouldn’t spar too much before a fight so that you don’t get too punch-drunk. Sparring is the only thing that can really help you mimic a fight and help you train for it. Steven advises mixing up your opponents so as to build your skills. Boxing makes you durable, and gives you qualities that can enhance your business life, your family life and your social life. Road-running is like depositing money into a current account. The more you do it, the more cash you’ll have in that account. You’ll be running for many more miles than you ever thought possible, before you even know it. The correct nutrition can see to it that you have more energy so that you can train harder and recover faster. It can also help to disperse any toxins and aid your digestion. A great food-hack is soup! If you want something cheap, easy, nutritious, and which will help you to lose weight rapidly, try soups and cold-pressed juices! Everyone needs a purpose. The event itself is a purpose, of course, but there’s always a deeper reason, a more heartfelt purpose, behind anything we do. There are times when things get difficult. The challenges can seem insurmountable. Boxing has given Steven the resilience and the endurance to come out on the other side both physically and mentally.
BEST MOMENTS ‘As you start winning fights, the competition only gets stronger’ ‘Anyone coming into it for the first time usually has a point to prove’ ‘I hate sparring amateurs! They’re like annoying flies you can’t get rid of’ ‘it gives you that winner’s mind-set for when life gets a little bit tough’ ‘Get up early. Be passionate. Be happy, never content’ ‘You only find out who you are when you bite down on that gum-shield and face those tough, tough times'

Responding to feedback is the lifeblood of the Steven Sulley Study, and that’s exactly what’s happening today. You’ve been reaching out Steven to ask him to talk about what he knows best: sales.
Steven talks about the art of communication, closing, marketing and strategy. There are several key factors in being the best, and the main one is an effective sales and marketing team. But how do you get the best out of them?
With Steven’s help, you can kickstart your sales strategy today.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
A marketing and sales team is the lifeblood of any business. But you also need a strategy and a system to achieve the full potential.
Sales requires a special mind-set. Not everyone has it, but it can be taught. Those who achieve it usually go on to staggering success. Steven himself has seen several become self-made millionaires.
There are three general rules for determining if a prospect should become your client: Are they interested? Do they want a part of you and what you’re selling? Do they have the autonomy to be making decisions. Do they have the finances in place, in order to buy what you’re selling.
Another rule that Steven has developed on his own is can you establish control of the sales call? You need to make sure that you can retain some sense of power.
The transfer of enthusiasm is definitely the definition of a sale. Sell on the excitement. What keeps them in the sale is the logic and the emotion they’re buying into.
BEST MOMENTS
’Nothing happens unless you have a good marketing and sales team’
‘I’ll be doing my best to get my son to take up two things in life: boxing and sales’
‘Interest stems from being taught something’
‘Allow the pen to be your friend’

In this episode Steven explains why he thinks it’s important to follow people who aren’t necessarily the typical entrepreneur because you can take learnings from all different people. He also discusses one of his main inspirations and how he has used a recent post that he’s posted to motivate and inspire him.
KEY TAKEAWAYS It can be good to take learnings from people who you find interesting or inspire you, for example Dwayne Johnson e.g. ‘The Rock’. Keep an eye out on what these people are doing and how you can take what they’re doing and allow it to inspire you. Implement good things, that you’ve taken from watching these people, into your own life. Whether you’re in business or not, we will all have to say goodbye at one point. So don’t waste your time doing something that you’ll regret. Be a trial blazer, be a trend setter and inspire others to step up and become a better version of themselves. It’s not too late. Think about what people will say after you pass away, you can change this so look to constantly push yourself to be the best you can be.
BEST MOMENTS
‘If it’s good enough for me then it’s good enough to share
‘Don’t let a moment go past and wish that you had one more shot’’
‘No one’s invincible’

Steven explains 2 simple, easy and effective ways you can gain business and deals. One is from upselling to existing clients and the other is by asking for referrals. Listen to this episode to find out how you can do this!
KEY TAKEAWAYS Sometimes the quick and easy wins are the best to go for for example upselling to existing clients or having referrals. An existing client is 16 times easier to deal to because they already like and trust your business. Before upselling you must ensure that the particular client is compatible with the service you’re trying to sell them. By upselling you give confidence in your services, product and ability which helps to build on your relationship with that client. They might buy later on in the future. Keep upselling and asking for referrals so it becomes natural to you. Always tell the client why you’re telling them to do the thing you’re trying to get them to do.
BEST MOMENTS
‘sales is at the core of everything’
‘Make sure they’re eligible’
‘If you don’t ask you do not get’
‘Look to serve your clients’

Listen in to find out exactly what it takes in this enjoyable episode.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
Fitness
When I first started it was about consistency and routine and then it becomes part of your lifestyle because it’s what you are used to and enjoy doing.
I’m in shape all of the time, I hold my physique throughout the year.
I’ve always mixed cardio and weights to achieve the results I’ve wanted.
In rugby, there is respect for those you are playing with and it is an important part of the culture.
Rugby and sports help develop skills and communication with others and I’ve always enjoyed team sports.
I like to set myself challenges which is why I compete in competitions.
It’s vital to set goals and have a vision for the future. Otherwise, how do you know where you are going.
Unless you’ve got something to train for it can be difficult to be motivated in training.
Firefighter
I didn’t know what I wanted to do – but all my friends were going to university so I just picked something to get there and then went on to join the fire service in London because that’s where I wanted to be.
There is a great variety of levels of fitness across firefighters.
You need to be fit because you can find yourself in a position where you may need to carry your partner out of a situation.
As a firefighter being in stressful situations means you need to use the services available following challenging calls to look after your mental well-being.
If I had to choose between modelling and fighting it would be firefighting because every day is different and you have the opportunity to make a difference.
Modelling
Andi Peters has become a friend as well as my manager.
He has lots of different businesses including the sports model agency that I’m a part of.
I do eat foods that are not good for me occasionally, it would unrealistic to say you would never eat anything you shouldn’t, the important thing is that it’s only occasionally.
I’m a brand ambassador for several different companies as I like to keep busy
I am currently very involved in Turf Games - a functional fitness competition similar to CrossFit but is more accessible.
You take part as a team and it’s all about the tactics used as a team to complete the set workouts throughout the competition.
BEST MOMENTS
‘I feel fitter now than I ever have – age is definitely just a number’
‘I’m always trying to develop myself and learn new things’

KEY TAKEAWAYS You can never be 100% happy all of the time, in order to be happy you need to feel a bit of fear, anxiety and anger because these emotions will make you appreciate when you are happy. Growing is about evolving and pushing towards something, you have something to look forward to, something you are accountable for and if you are growing ultimately you achieve happiness. Pushing for more is not about being greedy it’s about growing as an individual and becoming the best version of you. Money You need to do something that makes you money but you need a career, job, or business that you are passionate about. You have to some sh#t in your life to get where you want to be and if you don’t have your own plan, you will become part of someone else’s. To make money you need goals, to be working alongside the right people and to have complete synergy with the company you are working for, or the career you have embarked on. The more money you make, the more you can give away and use to help friends, family. Making money is a healthy thing that gives you purpose. Fit and Healthy Being fit and healthy is a combination of nutrition and training. If you are not eating properly or training properly it is likely you will give off negative energy and you will lose opportunities, you won’t be the best version of yourself. When I’m fit and healthy and training I attract more opportunities into my life. Having a focus and keeping yourself accountable to others in fitness and training is vital. It’s hard to make money and hard to have the best relationships in life if you are not fit and healthy. Creativity Today your modern CV is your digital footprint, your Instagram profile, your Facebook profile and your website. Putting out positive content that gives value is a part of your CV. This podcast keeps me creative and I am continually educating myself as I look for new people to interview. In order to live a fulfilled life, you have to keep your mind active it’s vital to find something that keeps your mind active.

‘I have aspirations to become very successful in business and grow my podcast alongside my businesses’
‘I’m growing just like everyone else; I have set my targets and ambitions very high and I keep myself active and busy pushing myself’

Are you enthusiastic and excited about 2020? Have you set your goals and targets so you are poised to make a mark and achieve those goals in the coming months?
Information is power, providing that you know what to do with it and in this episode, Steven looks at quotes from 3 very successful entrepreneurs;
Alexandra Depledge founder and CEO of Resi the largest residential architects in the UK who offer cradle to grave solutions for your home, Anne Boden, founder and CEO of Starling Bank and author of the Money Revolution and David Buttress Ex CEO and founder of Just Eat, entrepreneur and angel investor.
They are all hugely successful but they’ve all had to raise money so they are all closers and all understand the fundamental importance of knowing about sales, doing sales presentations and securing sales.
KEY TAKEAWAYS ‘People can smell desperation when you are looking for money’ (Anne Boden) Being desperate is when an individual starts to do things that are incongruent with their brand and to who they as an individual. When you are looking for money and are not coming across as desperate it’s because you are prepared, have a pipeline and have worked hard. ‘When raising money, you need to be resilient’ (Anne Boden) There are a lot of ‘nos’ and rejection. If you lose your composure you are weak. It’s about working on your plan. You need to build up resilience. ‘If you really believe in your business you will find a way’ (David Buttress) If you really believe in yourself and have the burning desire to be successful in your business you will find a way. ‘Raising money was a fun challenge (David Buttress) If you retrain yourself to view raising money as a fun challenge when you go into a sales your potential presentation it’s going to come across to the others, including potential investors. ‘When you are pitching, narrate a story because they buy you’ (Alex Deledge) When you are pitching narrate a story because they buy you, the best pitchers are fantastic storytellers. People want to buy into other people, they want to stand with you in your mind as you narrate the story. ‘You need high energy’ (Alex Deledge) If people feel you are boring what you are saying is flat, monotone. You could have something that is amazing but people still won’t buy it. A sale is the transference of enthusiasm. Get excited, get enthusiastic, tune into your goals and believe in yourself.
BEST MOMENTS
‘In my life, I’ve had successes and definitely setbacks everything I share is my take on things and most importantly I continue to learn everyday’
‘If a person says no it doesn’t mean they don’t have someone in their network who could say ‘yes’

‘If you don’t show them what you want to do then they’ll keep asking you to do something you don’t want to do’
Steven is in conversation with Marylou Faure; Parisian illustrator and artist currently based in London.
Her vibrant and playful work can be recognised by the intense colour palette and her quirky style which often features the curvy female form which embodies independent empowered women.
Marylou shares her journey and how she found her own unique style by being true to herself and letting others know what she wanted to do.
Marylou and Woodbury House are about to embark on a new collaboration and this is a great opportunity to find out more about this Artist and her engaging work.
KEY TAKEAWAYS I was lucky because both my parents were positive and encouraged me to go into the world of art Because of them I thought could make a career in the art world even though it is very competitive and there are many amazing artists out there. I always try to keep in mind that everyone has their doubts, no one goes through the journey thinking they are amazing all the time and speaking to other artists helps you realise everyone has their own struggle at some time. The biggest challenges are when things don’t follow through or when you reach out and you don’t get what you want or are expecting from someone. My art is very personal and when I don’t get the positive response I’m looking for I feel it’s a personal negative response for me but you just have stay focused and realise you are not going to be to everyone’s taste and you should always continue to do what you love. My art is mostly digital but I love to collaborate with people who bring my work to life whether it’s a good printer who will print manually adding depth and vibrancy, or working with a 3D designer turning my artwork into 3D sculptures. I think there is a bit of myself in all my characters and I feel strongly about the fact you should feel good about yourself, feel good in your body and have confidence because then you will get what you want in life. It’s good to understand what message you want to give, the narrative of something you are trying to do through your illustration, it helps your audience to understand what you are trying to say. I like to work by series particularly for personal work, I give myself a brief and then work to it. Most series are inspired by a song title. Always aspire to do more and understand that to be truly happy you need to push the boundaries and make something more out of what you love.
BEST MOMENTS
‘At the beginning, I had to do some work that wasn’t my favourite but I made sure I was only showing was only the things I liked and what I wanted to work on’
‘I love to get involved in projects that support charities or non-profit organisations I find it interesting and it’s a nice way for people to see my work’
‘When I was working on my new style I was naturally drawing the female form curvy independent, empowered women’

In this episode, Steven is with philanthropist Alfie Best, Chairman of Wyldecrest Park Homes, Europe’s largest park home operator.
Alfie’s journey is both inspirational and fascinating and he takes pride in being true to himself and his history, being the same person now, as a millionaire businessman, as he was when he began his journey.
He has a passion for park homes and loves working, citing his Dad as his most important significant mentor and the individual who instilled the strong work ethic Alfie has sustained throughout his entrepreneurial journey.
‘If I can do this anyone can do it’ find out how in this entertaining podcast with a very relatable man who is creating a legacy.
KEY TAKEAWAYS Who better to understand park homes than someone who grew up in them. It took me 30 years to find my way to park homes and my passion, we had lots of different businesses before moving into the park home sector. When I’m buying a residential park or a property the first thing I look at are the returns, not where it is located. The property is a tool to create wealth. It’s not just a tool to create an income stream it’s a tool to develop. When you are buying property check the figures and returns but then look further are there any potential development opportunities? can you go up or out? When you do this, you are increasing the value. What’s happened to me isn’t magic or because I’m really clever it’s just good habits, creating good habits and work ethic. I didn’t tell people I was a traveller until I felt I’d reached a level where it wouldn’t matter anymore. We have to accept the tools we are born with and learn to sharpen them. I love working in business and the one thing that is a key component for any successful business is the passion of the owner. It’s about setting little goals and then the momentum will grow and the business will work on its own. The momentum for Wyldecrest continues to grow and we are focused on building a legacy We are Europe’s largest residential park home operator and we want to become the biggest global park home, operator. We are all successful in one way or another. The success we are talking about is financial and I’ve got a long way to go because I’m only at 450 on the list of richest people in the country. I’m successful at a level and I’m continuing to climb the ladder and enjoying it I try not to waste my time on what could be, would be, should be and I’m not interested in negative people I want to enjoy what I’m doing now.
BEST MOMENTS
‘Why would I tell people something that would be detrimental to me, travellers are like black men in a white person’s skin’
‘My first job was working with my dad cold call selling tarmac and it taught me to read people’
‘I don’t think the property market is saturated all it takes is people with drive and know-how to be successful’
‘Assumption is the mother of all cock-ups‘

Are you inspired?
Steven is at Woodbury House with Nathan Bowen, Guerrilla Street Artist. His style is unique, fast, dynamic and unpredictable with his signature characters ‘ the demons’ invading building sites and hoardings all over London.
Nathan paints internationally and his ideas are fresh and edgy continually reminding people that there is no limit to your imagination it’s all about being creative and free.
In this episode, they discuss fine art, painting abroad, how Nathan developed his freedom art and how being featured on The Apprentice changed his life.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
Whether you are a salesperson, athlete, artist or entrepreneur having a vision is key.
My freedom art is sketchy scribbly loose lines, I gave up trying to be perfect.
I developed this style during my final year studying fine art at St Martin’s in London
I like my work to appeal to and be accessible to everyone, I want my work to be in every household.
I originally started with graffiti and got arrested which made me realise I wanted to stop sneaking around with my hood up so I applied and went to St Martins to do fine art.
My artwork being featured as a part of the Apprentice series changed my life. After the program, I was able to sell my art and make a living from it
It all came down to timing - the artwork featured on the program was the bearskin hat character and people were feeling very patriotic at the time so after the program, I was approached for commissions and my artwork started selling.
I do the characters such as the builders and the bearskin hat soldier to remind people that these people are an important part of London.
The demon characters were originally based on the idea of a comic strip.
I was working on building sites at the time which is why the first demon character I created was a builder with a Hi-Viz jacket and hard hat.
The demon characters are humans but on a different level
You have to do things because you love doing them,
The challenges and setbacks have to be absorbed and overcome along the way. I got loads of haters because I did a piece of work, a commission, at Charing cross police station
People get to a certain point in life and then the important thing is about maintaining it.
Be organic and get beyond social media - it’s all about thinking outside and beyond the box.
I do it my way, you need to do it your way.
BEST MOMENTS
‘I originally thought I’d be a cartoon artist I never thought I’d be drawing my own characters’
‘All the time I think about art, it never leaves me’
‘Think outside the box and do your own thing don’t do it by the book’
‘You want to come and vandalise my stuff, I’ll just come back again and again to retouch it’
‘If you want a side hustle – I do face painting at carnivals for the fun of it’

Steven is a huge fan of people who win, people who are driven and determined, and he’s a huge fan of business. And nowhere do these values blend more than in the world of boxing, where drive and determination are the core principles of those who become legend.
In this show, Steven talks about three lessons he's learned and adapted for business, from one of the greats: Anthony Joshua.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
If you have the mind-set of an entrepreneur, it’s easily transferrable into the world of boxing. Similarly, if you’re a successful boxer, then it’ll help you achieve success in the world of business. Losses are not failures. They are opportunities to re-centre, to refocus, and examine the things that really matter. They allow us to drive forward with determination. Anthony Joshua stated that he had three options: Don’t change anything Add to what you already have Change it completely. Change it all. Life is about enjoyment. It’s about hitting your goals. It’s about evolving into the best version of yourself possible. If people are holding you back, then changing things completely might be the best solution. The definition of madness is to do the same thing over and over again. If you don’t change anything you’ll get the same results over and over again.
BEST MOMENTS
’Entrepreneurs and people in combat sports are synonymous’
‘It’s a small setback for a major comeback’
’In some circumstances I do believe you need to change it completely’
’That small bolt on makes me more powerful'

‘My body speaks very loud; it tells me when something is wrong’
Steven is with Coupe at the Plant Hub sampling some of the amazing organic plant-based dishes they have on offer. As they enjoy the food they discuss the importance of sleep, eating clean and the stress and potential long-term damage caused to our bodies when we don’t think or care about what we eat.
If you move from a meat-based junk food diet to a clean diet you are going to feel better,
If you go from a meat-based junk food diet to a clean plant-based diet you are going to feel amazing. Find out how you can do it better in this inspiring episode.
KEY TAKEAWAYS How much sleep you need is determined by how hard your body is having to work If your body doesn’t have to deal with breaking your food down, dealing with waste and any harmful allergen triggering proteins. The important question is how much energy does your body use to break down your food If you are eating a meal and then find yourself in a food coma then you are not getting it right you should feel energised after eating People who are suffering from any sort of inflammation should not eat foods from the nightshade family as these will boost the inflammation Everybody’s body is different and their responses to foods vary You don’t suffer from jet lag you suffer from being out of sync Your body works best when it is grounded when you walk on the earth barefoot allowing your body to connect to the earth’s electromagnetic field. Be barefoot and be present in your life. Dry fasting is 3x more powerful than water fasting. When you go without water your body starts to breakdown your fats utilising it into hydrogen and water. In fasting, you are abstaining from negative energy. People don’t want to be challenged about what they believe in. We are creatures of habit but we are also creatures with a choice. We all have a choice but most of the time we chose what we know and don’t properly think about the information we access. I can look at peoples skin, eyes or hair and know if they are healthy. How much time do you give to yourself? It’s important to find time for yourself It takes a full 7-year cycle for each cell in our bodies to replicate.
BEST MOMENTS
‘The less you eat in the evening the more rested your body can become and the more sleep it can get’
‘If you are stressed and your mind is overly concerned with something it can manifest as a something such as a skin problem’
‘The very next morning from being on holiday I’m out walking on the grass so my body knows where it is and can adapt its circadian rhythm in that place’

You can’t easily dismiss a certain person in your life just because you don’t see ‘benefits’ directly. Some people we keep by our side are there to keep us grounded, to make us go beyond our doubts and fears, to give the needed criticisms and so on. Quit cutting off ties for selfish reasons. Instead, why don’t you do the steps to make your relationships grow? Offer some help, be more supportive, and then see how things will go.
Discover more on how you can build, grow, and cultivate meaningful relationships when you tune in this episode of The Steven Sully Study Podcast.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
Here are more reasons cultivate relationships (and think twice before cutting anyone out of your life): Anyone can be a client of yours. But they won’t even consider you as their service provider if you don’t radiate that positive and trustful energy. Every interaction is an opportunity, so always give it your best. They might recommend you to other people (who also might be potential clients). They might be of help for you in the future, if not now. That person can be your business partner or investment partner. If you haven’t heard, successful entrepreneurs Rob Moore and Mark Homer initially met a bar, and before you know it, they now own their own property company, Progressive Property. They can be a very good friend.

The Steven Sulley Study is my take on success. My view is you should focus on several key areas to be a well-rounded individual. Success should not be just one thing like money, for example, it should also comprise a healthy fit lifestyle and thriving relationships.

I started from leaving school at 16 with very poor school results to pursue a career in plumbing following the directions of my parents that then lead me to a barrister's chamber and then to a sales floor. From here, I established a foothold in the sales market promoting financial products as well as being a founder of an art agency that has a Soho based art studio.
In addition, I have invested into an urban fashion brand and into a wellness tech company, and my latest addition to the business portfolio is a property company that which creates HMO's in Medway, Kent. The diverse range of industries I find myself in has allowed me to create wealth that enables me to be my own boss so I can pursue my dreams.
As a former boxer and avid sportsman, I find there are similarities between the running of businesses and competing. In my episodes, I will be sharing some of my experiences to explore deeper these connections and how they may bring you success."

Katie Eary is living proof of the fact that you can achieve your dream if you work hard enough at it. From humble beginnings, Katie applied herself, got her MA from the Royal College Of Art, and has designed for everyone from British Vogue to Kanye West, and has had her designs photographed by the likes of Mario Testino.
Katie meets Steven on this episode to talk about the wild journey she’s still on to this day; a creative, inspiring tale of how important is to keep following your dreams, and what can happen if you do.
KEY TAKEAWAYS Fashion looks like an art, but is very much a business. Putting a foot wrong in terms of taste can lead to the end of someone’s livelihood. The fun and the risk seem to have been taken out of the creative process. Art is so subjective. Depending on where you come from, you’ll see a piece of art in a totally different way. This is the magic of art. When Katie started out, it was perfectly acceptable to receive payment in the form of coverage. Sometimes Katie would take a job because of the promotion it could bring. Nowadays things are different. People with money have changed these days. There are more millionaires. Younger people seem to have more money, and aren’t necessarily seeking out the classics. They’re into street art and pop art, and seem to be spending on pieces that mean sometime thing to them. People are very quick to judge celebrities based on the way they’re presented in the media. Katie knows Kanye West very well, and has met Kim Kardashian several times, and has found them to be wonderfully approachable and far more down-to-earth than they are portrayed. There seems to be a growing sense of younger people investing in art. These investments have far more longevity that simply buying clothes or other items that can’t stand the test of time..
BEST MOMENTS
’Their insides were basically on their outside’
‘From that point the press just went crazy’
‘Fashion is, after all, a business’
‘You could read a book, and I could read the same book, and we could both conjure up opposites’
‘If it’s going on the cover of something then that’s payment in itself’
‘You’d better be ringing me to give me a job’
‘I love so much about fashion, but my highlights in it are always the people that I’ve met’
’No one escapes the telling off’

In this fascinating conversation, Steven is talking to Dumi Oburota, co-founder of the entertainment company Disturbing London and manager of British rapper, singer and songwriter Tinie Tempah.
Disturbing London operates primarily as a record label but has had success in brand consultancy, event management, music publishing and as a fashion label. The company has forged several high-profile brand collaborations and continues to widen its influence.
Dumi shares his experiences, evolution and what he has learnt on his journey to date along with his vision for the future.
Entertainment is a wonderful world of make-believe and Dumi has achieved sustained success in this arena through keeping it real and understanding that it’s all about who you have touched, influenced and lifted up along the way.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
Building
Life is about evolution and it’s a long game, I’ve always had the aspiration to do something or be someone.
Money emphasises who you are and only changes people who didn’t think they were ever going to make money.
Disturbing London represents the culmination of 10,000 plus hours of being obsessed with London underground street culture - the music, fashion, parties, events, the production, content and culture.
I have built my business around my passions and what I love. It makes it authentic and selling truth is something people recognise.
As a result of social media, people expect instant gratification and perceive success as being something that can be achieved overnight forgetting that it takes time to build and create success.
Personal development
People try to skip personal development and expect to still achieve success at the end.
Personal development is key to success and the journey may be full of challenge and sacrifice but it’s these challenges that mean success has meaning.
Once you have developed a successful mindset it can be transferred and used in different areas.
I work at very high capacity and although I don’t micro manage I know exactly what’s going on in every area of my company.
The more you do the better you get and the more you believe in yourself and achieve.
Sometimes you can be on a quest that others can’t see or don’t believe in so self-belief is crucial.
The push and the pull of the entertainment business
It’s always about trying to bring through new people.
The story is always the push and pull, it’s this that makes the network bigger.
It’s about the brand being able to project the artist forward.
It’s not what you’ve done yourself it’s about who you’ve brought through, touched and influenced, that’s what’s important and keeps the dreams alive.
You have to open the door and let things happen, invite others to come in because it keeps you close to the energy that got you started.
Fulfilment is seeing someone emerge and helping them to the next level so they can move on up.
I want to continue breaking down the doors and changing the perception of what people from my type of background can achieve.
BEST MOMENTS
‘I knew our influence on fashion and what we could contribute to fashion so why is it we had to be the consumer, why not have a go ourselves?’
‘The success with Tinie allowed me to view everything with a wider lens’
‘The entertainment business is a made-up world so it’s important for me to keep it real and feel the energy of people’

Ask Steve Anything!
‘Richard Hambleton is a story that hasn’t been told for many years because he was an art rebel, a true artist’s artist’
This is a podcast about Woodbury House and the Richard Hambleton movement. Woodbury represents several artists but currently, their focus is on Richard because of the surge of interest in his work.
In todays episode, Steven provides answers to some of the most frequently asked questions about the artist and explains his pivotal role as a pioneer of street art; a movement that continues to grow in significance within the art collectors world.
This episode is a great way to find out more about this artist’s artist and his importance in the art history of the world.
KEY TAKEAWAYS The market that has been booming for the last 2 or 3 years is the street art market. Many of the big auction houses currently hold auctions for this genre of work monthly because of the interest. An artist heavily associated with this movement, but very elusive is Banksy and many critics acknowledge the influence of Richard Hamilton in the work of Banksy Street artwork is derived from pop art and one of its most well-known proponents is Andy Warhol. Pop art evolved from a genre begun by Picasso, The Modern Art Movement. The important art movement of today is street art. Street art began as a movement to tell the story of New York, the gangs, the street life, the crime, drugs and violence. Artists wanted to express what was happening through painting the streets. Richard Hambleton is Canadian and from Vancouver but made his name as a street artist in New York. His work can be seen in Paris London Rome and other countries around the world but he pioneered most of his work in New York City. He is primarily aligned with Keith Haring and Jean-Michael Basquiat and they created their artwork on the streets of New York. Shortly before his death, his work was admitted for permanent display at the Museum of Modern Art in New York. Admittance to this collection acknowledges the importance of the artist as a pioneer of the street art movement. His work includes landscapes known as the beautiful places but he is particularly known for his ‘Shadowmen’ series. His market continues to grow with increasing prices across auctions and many believe his market will continue to grow stronger.
BEST MOMENTS
‘If people could have seen how collectable pop art would become then they would be holding pieces of considerable value’
‘Today his market has compounded and amplified’
‘We’ve done many shows and cool collaborations associated with the work of Richard Hambleton’

Steve’s boxing club is sponsored by Steven because they not only teach their students how to box but also teach them important life skills. In this episode Steve and Steven discuss why the club is so important and how it has such a big impact on the lives of the kids that attend.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
Steven would like to give a shout out to the gym that he used to box in Steve’s gym which is still running. Steve’s gym hosts a youth club 3 times a week which includes a vast variety of activities, such as boxing, Ping-Pong and cooking, for kids to do. The youth club helps to stop kids being on the streets, committing crimes and getting into trouble. It also gives them something to do rather than hanging around. Drugs, gangs and violence is on the raise especially in London so Steve’s club not only teaches them how to box but also teaches them life skills such as how to present themselves properly. When Steven’s dad was in school kids used to settle their differences via boxing then have the issue solved. There was less stabbings. There’s now more females getting into boxing than when Steve and Steven were teenagers. It just shows that it also helps to give more females confidence.
BEST MOMENTS
‘Different clubs aren’t getting the funding.’
‘These days’ kids don’t know how to talk face to face because of mobile devices’.
‘It’s not all about the boxing’.
‘They don’t just get in the ring and box’.

Coupe is a plant-based nutritionist, personal trainer, entrepreneur and father, who altered his life in radical ways when he became a personal trainer.
After experimenting with different foods, practice and diets, Coupe became convinced that plant-based nutrition is the way forward for the human race, and has been evangelising upon its incredible properties ever since. It’s a journey that’s ongoing, and a message that’s connected with everyone he meets.
Coupe joins Steven this week to discuss the reasons why this lifestyle works and what it can do for you.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
Water fasting is the practice by where all food and beverages are replaced with water only, for a specific (usually extended) period of time.
When it’s missing from the diet, people soon realise that it isn’t meat they miss. What they really miss are the flavours, such as barbecue and tomato, all of which are plant-based.
One of the main differences that you notice when embarking on a plant-based diet, is that your energy levels increase substantially, and your sleep is profoundly affected for the better.
Wheat contains gluten, and gluten contains morphine, which is an opiate derivative. When your body begins to crave wheat products, such as bread and pasta, it is this opiate derivative that it wants.
A good way to break a coffee addiction is to first research the harmful effects for yourself so that you are armed with the right knowledge, then replace it with something like chlorella or spirulina.
There’s a huge difference between eating for nutrition and eating to fill our stomachs. Fruits hydrate and are nutrient rich. They also prevent disease. There is a theory that suggests it may be in the interests of corporations and pharmaceutical companies to withhold certain nutrients in order to make us spend on costly cures.
Animals get huge amounts of protein from plants. Some then get protein from the animals. Coupe recommends cutting out the middle man and getting the plant protein yourself. That way you won’t get all the additives and bad ingredients caused when processing meat.
Lifting external weights for fitness causes your muscles to shorten. Using your own body weight for training causes your muscles to elongate, which is more ideal.
BEST MOMENTS
‘Your knowledge left a lasting impact on me’
’That’s when my voice becomes a little bit louder’
‘How can I tell people how to diet, if I’ve never tried that diet myself?’
‘I’m basically breaking the chain of mental slavery'
‘I like taking on new knowledge’
‘Do I want to look strong, or be strong?’
‘Happiness is a state of consciousness'

This time on the podcast, Steven talks to Maria Ensabella, the owner and founder of LondonCryo, a pioneering London centre, who aim to provide pain relief, sports recovery, slimming, toning, and other health benefits through cryotherapy.
Maria discusses her journey into this highly popular form of treatment, how it works, and her goals, beliefs, and vision for the future.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
Tony Robbins and Floyd Mayweather are proponents of cryotherapy. It can reduce stress, help with inflammation and is generally used for sports therapy.
You need to believe in what you’re doing. You can have tough days, and it can take a while to engage with people, especially if you are in the business of a new and unfamiliar form of treatment. But belief will keep you going, and will eventually steer you towards success.
Culture is vital to the growth of a business. Happiness and friendliness will make you memorable, and will make clients feel at home and comfortable.
LondonCryo’s vision is to grow another eight locations within the next three to four years. Investment and partnership will be required.
As long as you’re open to advice and new experiences, the right people will come into your life. Listening to the wisdom and experiences of others help you to grow.
Cryotherapy works when cold air causes blood to rush to the surface of the body, bringing the oxygen with it, which starts the body’s recovery process. When you are subjected to these temperatures, it causes the blood vessels to close up. The brain then sends a message to the blood, which rushes to protect your internal organs.
The diet is more important than exercise, unless you’re an athlete. Sleep is also highly vital, and we should all be getting 7 - 8 hours of sleep per night.
BEST MOMENTS
‘I could joke that I love rain and grey clouds!’
‘Being able to tell a story is paramount’
’Being willing to learn is very important’
‘Anyone can be content, but you need to achieve more'

In this episode of The Steven Sully Study Podcast, Steven talks to Andrea Corbett, the Founder of FOCUS, to talk about her struggles with mental illness and how fitness has helped her get through it. Though Andrea got professional help, she didn’t want to depend on drugs. So, she started looking for an alternative to fully get better—she started exercising to get those needed endorphin release, which she normally gets from the bad habit of eating sweets or consuming alcohol.
It was quite life changing. She now values and advocates self-care and nutrition, which she never did before. As a wellbeing coach and mentor, she continues to share her stories to other people so they can also fully live their lives.
Join Steven and Andrea today to learn more about the benefits of fitness on mental health.
KEY TAKEAWAYS A normal feeling depressed differs from someone who has been diagnosed with depression. For those who have been clinically depressed, it lasts for a longer time and needs help from a professional. She was taking anti-depressants for a while but she noticed that she was becoming dependent on the drugs, so she started looking for a more natural alternative. For Andrea, it was focusing on physical fitness that has helped her heal. Some are just used to ‘masking’ their ill mental state. Not all happy people you encounter have a healthy mental well-being. Have a healthy diet. Andrea was able to let go of alcohol and sweets, which she really loves. Your appearance also improves when you take in nutritious food. Also, drink lots of water. What does Andrea do when she’s preparing for a competition?
Be committed. Plan and trust the process. Believe in yourself that you can do it. Every morning, Andrea does the SAVERS morning routine. The six parts of the routine are silence, affirmations, visualisation, exercise, reading, and scribing. Find what suits for you. There’s a right diet and exercise that will apply to you. It’s different for every individual, so better consult a trainer or a health expert.
BEST MOMENTS “Having a burnout is actually a disease.” “When I started creating my ultimate self, positive things started to happen.” “Despite not knowing how things are going to pan out, just give it a go.” “If I’m not doing it for myself, how am I going to do it for anybody else?” “You can’t put a price on happiness.”

Steven is in conversation with sculptor and photographer Bran Symondson in this absorbing episode exploring his passion and journey as an artist.
He is considered to be one of the finest reportage artists of the 21st century and his unique sculptural work involving AK47’s takes something of fear and transforms it into something of beauty and intrigue.
Bran uses his work to heighten awareness of worldwide issues and is also known for his philanthropic work with donations of his work raising, to date, in excess of £580,000 at charity art auctions
Bran and Steven discuss the journey, passion, belief and influencers in this episode which captures a very personal and intimate view of this influential artist.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
Beginning I have a background initially in photography followed by a period in the special forces reserves. The regiment taught me an ethos of human humility and discipline. The experience shapes you and your character and gives you a value in life. My work is attached to my experiences in Afghanistan and the onward journey. The AK47 It’s the most iconic weapon in the world standing for terrorism, freedom and for revolution. The design has very few working parts in it and it is very functional. It’s a beautiful shape and its curved magazine gives it its identity.
Butterflies Depending on the narrative I’ll use a particular species of butterfly. They symbolise lost souls and can represent the fragility of nature. All my weapons come from conflict zones and have a story of their own. The bullet casings are filled with materials that reflect the story and commentary of the piece.
The future I’m a great believer in visualisation if you want something you have to go for it I want to raise the bar for myself, you have to keep moving forward and reinvent yourself. I didn’t realise when I got into art I’d be so politically driven because I’m not politically driven as an individual. When you are in a position and earn a living from your art then reinvestment is key. We live in an instantaneous society but it can take 10 years to become an overnight success. Do whatever turns you on, Concentrate on what drives you and stick with it. You have fucking dark days and days with no money, you’ve got to believe in your goal and in yourself and then, in the end, things start to come around. You do have those ‘pinch me’ moments and it’s good to reflect on those but it’s not about living in the past it’s the importance of moving forward. You must remain strong, keep focused and believe in yourself. If you create work you are proud of and keep going in the pursuit of excellence over time it will define your character It’s the 1% a day – the vital element of trying every day incrementally to improve. When you look back the worst moments they can be those where the light shines and your life changed, takes a different direction and is defined.
BEST MOMENTS
‘It was a mindset I didn’t think I had it but I was determined not to give up and now I just apply that mentality to everything I do’
‘It’s the only gun that appears on a flag and it has killed the most people in the world’
‘Don’t fucking do it for anyone else, you have to do it for yourself when you are making art don’t be a crowd-pleaser you got to do what turns you on’

Sportspeople (athletes, trainers, coaches, etc.) aren’t susceptible to mental health problems just like everyone else. There’s too much pressure and too much stereotyping (hello machismo!) that need to be changed/removed in professional sports.
In this episode of The Steven Sully Study Podcast, Steven chats with Pace Journal Creative Director Shahbaz Choudhry about his personal experiences, his business, and his advocacies. Lately, he has been very passionate about bringing forward mental health awareness to the sports community. For example, in the recently-launched song he has helped produced, which was titled ‘Keep Balanced’, he wants to initiate more conversations about balancing physical & mental wellbeing to fully live one’s dreams. Shahbaz tells more about this today, so listen in.
KEY TAKEAWAYS Shahbaz started Pace Journal as an escape or a buffer from cricket. Through Pace Journal, people can learn everything about fast bowling and hear stories from professional bowlers. Shahbaz helped produced the ‘world’s fast bowling anthem’ Keep Balanced, which was sang by Base Staxckz. It aims to encourage mental health awareness not just for the athletes, but for everyone. The beats are perfect to pump you up before any game. They just recently concluded the filming of its music video. Shahbaz and his team have been working hard and are very proud of their work. It will be launched soon. There isn’t a specific pathway to success. Yours will differ from the others—from the successful entrepreneurs, from your mentors, from your colleagues, etc. But, if you find what’s suitable for you, then success will come.
BEST MOMENTS “You’re going to need to find that balance where you’re doing enough but also not overdoing it to the point that it’s clouding your judgment.” “…What it means to me is when you get to that moment whether it’s adversity in life, going through a struggle, or going through a very important scenario, you need to keep your emotions balanced.” “I had a dream; I didn’t live the dream. My dream is for you guys know.” “If you’re feeling down or depressed that this isn’t working for you, just remember that the skills and the experience can be used elsewhere.”

Steven has journeyed to the English Institute of Sports in Sheffield to meet former professional boxer, Richie Woodhall, who from 1990 to 2000, blazed a trail through the boxing world, holding the WBC Super Middleweight title, as well as the Commonwealth middleweight title, European middleweight title, and Olympic medals.
Richie talks to Steven about his incredible story so far, which has seen him successfully transition from pro-sportsman, to pro-broadcaster, and even to work in movies.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
There seems to be a period in each potential sportsperson’s life, generally at the end of the teens, in which they must choose whether to follow their passion into sports, or indulge in the more carefree lifestyle. The great ones choose to remain focussed. Role models are critical in life. They can inspire and lead you to success. But it’s equally as important to become the role model when you find success. Boxing should be reintegrated into school learning from a young age. It teaches discipline and encourages their character and emotions to be tested. It’s all about controlling aggression and developing respect. If you want something in life, you need to be prepared to give it all to achieve your dream. It’s the dedicated people who get there. If you have a goal in life, nothing can ever prepare you for the moment in which you get there. For Richie, the defining moment in his career, when he won the world title on home soil, the feeling was of relief and deflation, and not a desire to celebrate and indulge. There is a paradox in life. If our goals are pure, and if our desire is legitimate, then reaching the goal can be a deflating experience. It’s important to plan for what comes next. It’s always wise to line your next goal up when you hit your current one. Put another iron in the fire. Get financially educated and invest wisely. Live for today but live for the future, too.
BEST MOMENTS
‘Being Brad Pitt’s body double is definitely a good chat up line’
‘You have to put back. It’s your duty’
‘Boxing would be a major asset to the school curriculum’
‘It’s only the dedicated people who get there’
’This guy was my hardest fight!’
‘What am I going to win now?'

‘I try lots of things, I’m prepared to fail fast on high volume to find the diamond’
In this hugely engaging episode, Steven is in conversation with Rob Moore, The Disruptive Entrepreneur and director of Progressive Property and Unlimited Success.
They talk about his journey, balancing passion and profession, doing what you love and figuring out how to be the best version of yourself.
Rob shares with much candour and honesty the experiences and motivation behind his huge success as a creative entrepreneur and owner of multiple businesses. Listen in and enjoy this podcast wherever you are in the world.
KEY TAKEAWAYS Podcasts
I think if you want to be an influencer create leads for your business then podcasts are very important.
The benefit of podcasts is you can do it wherever you are. You can connect with people globally without it making any interruption on your life.
There is flexibility with form. It can be 5 minutes or 3 hours long; my podcast can be whatever I want.
It’s the most intimate medium without being face to face.
Normally the older something gets the more the value decays but this is opposite for podcasts. The value can go up over time, my highest worth podcast is my first episode.
It is a creative outlet for me, my portfolio. A collection of podcasts where the sum is worth more than the parts. Multiple streams of income
If I was starting again I would begin with property, build income and when I felt I had a story to tell I’d do a podcast and then when I felt I was credible I’d run courses and training.
You can’t have multiple streams of income if you are doing them all, I like to partner with people who have much more experience in the niche.
My biggest passion is business and my family and I get most of my hobby needs met through my profession.
When you love what you do it isn’t work.
I have to be forced to stop while many people have to be forced to start. Selling
If no one sells anything in the world nothing moves and everything dies
A great salesperson allows someone to buy rather than sells to them aggressively
Maybe people don’t like to be sold too, but everyone likes to buy
Learning to sell well is vital, you’ll always be able to hustle yourself out of a hole if you can sell. Purpose and passion
A purpose, a passion and something bigger to work towards with accountability to get there are key elements of success.
You’ve got to get accountability in your life, the easiest person to lie to is yourself. Accountability needs to come from someone else; having a coach, mentor, helps you focus and achieve accountability.
When people see the best version of you they are inspired to be the best version of themselves and these are people who are usually more successful
People who are down on themselves, self-critical are at a lower frequency if you are at a higher frequency you are going to attract those types of people
Life’s a journey and sometimes we are romantic waiting for the big thing that will change our lives when it's about what you do every day.
BEST MOMENTS
‘You listen to it when you choose, and that’s powerful’
‘Choosing not to run adverts gets me more goodwill and less bounce of listeners and therefore I probably get more trickle-down revenue’
‘If I went bust I’d probably sulk for a little bit then get started again but I don’t want to have to start again’
‘The strongest sense of happiness and achievement comes following the hardest things you have done’

‘It’s time for me to step outside my comfort zone, to grow and to become a fighter’
Steven shares his reasons for getting back in the boxing ring and explains why there is so much more to fighting than most people imagine when they see someone stepping up to a fight.
He discusses the skills needed to be a good fighter and how developing these benefits other areas in life.
When you are focused it's easier to overcome your challenges and being the best version of you will impact on all areas of your life, listen and find out how.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
Accountability
Committing to this fight makes me accountable, to my friends, family, to my opponent, and most importantly to myself.
If you don’t put in the hard work, you are going to get found out in the ring, you can look good on the pads, on a run and sparring but where it really counts is in the ring.
Fitness
If you are fit and healthy you are usually enthusiastic and you can transfer this enthusiasm to all aspects of your life.
Being fit will make me stronger, more agile, more powerful I’ll feel better, the fight will be easier and other aspects of my life will improve as a result of my fitness.
Mental resilience
Mental resilience is key and transferable. Boxing can help you to build the mental resilience to cope with the challenges in life.
This is not just about the fight it’s about building mental and emotional resilience, when I have that resilience my relationships and businesses are better.
Nutrition
You can be the best boxer technically, have the hardest punch and be the quickest but if you are not fuelling your body in the right way with the best nutrition you are going to run out of steam.
I am really stepping things up eating the right things at the right time, in the right quantity
and getting the right advice from nutritionists.
Winning
I’m not doing this to compete I’m doing this to win, I’m here to take over, whatever I’m involved in I want to be the very best version of me.
The boxing fight is about getting in the ring to win and having a sheer determination and animal instinct to win, helps me in other parts of my life.
Business and sales are all about winning, sport is all about winning no one ever gives a shit about who comes second or third.
BEST MOMENTS
‘We’re not here just to piss around and take part we are here to take over’
‘If you put yourself under enough professional pressure you are going to perform when it’s time to shine’
‘This is about winning, if I don’t put everything I have and am into this then I'm going to come up short and I'm not prepared to do that’

“It’s really telling the stories of the artists in noble ways that the industry hasn’t done before.”
In this episode of The Steven Sully Podcast, Steven chats with Joe Kennedy and Jonny Burt, Co-founders and gallerists at Unit London. Joe and Jonny are making names in the art industry. Their brand, Unit London, wants to highlight art appreciation, the importance of sharing artist’s stories, and not just looking at an artwork’s selling price.
For Joe and Jonny, they want every experience of gallery-goers to be as human as possible. As artist-entrepreneurs, they always see that they connect with other artists on a genuine level. They aren’t here just to find the best investment-grade art to showcase. Any emerging artist are welcomed to their platform.
Discover more about arts and business when you tune in.
KEY TAKEAWAYS Joe and Jonny have been shaking things up in the art industry lately. They’re introducing a new way on how to manage galleries, museums, exhibitions, and installations so they can be enjoyed by both the artists and the viewers. In their business model, they prioritised more on giving the full experience to everyone, rather than on the sales. For artists who wants their to works to get appreciated by more people and make sales also, Unit London is the right place as it gives importance to artistry. Joe and Jonny’s approach is to showcase the works depending on how the artist wants it, so in this way, people get drawn authentically to its artistic value. They’ve carefully planned their pricing structure. Others would increase the prices if they see that there’s a high demand for the artworks of a certain artist. But Joe and Jonny are looking at their long-term goals, and following this kind of practice isn’t the best for their business. When scouting for new artists, Joe and Jonny want to work with people who have same vision as them. It should be easier to collaborate if you found someone who’s on the same page as you. Joe and Jonny’s advice for entrepreneurs is to always be persistent and consistent. If you keep doing what you need to be doing, you’ll eventually attain your goal. Yes, you’re gonna fail, but it’s part of life that leaves you with lessons and let you grow.
BEST MOMENTS “It’s all really about creating an environment that’s really welcoming, friendly, and somewhere you want to be.” “We’ve always led with passion with art, not fundamentally with money.” “It’s not just a sales-driven business; it’s about creating experience for people.” “If you appreciate the life of an entrepreneur, it’s much easier to go through the weeks.” “It was never about selling art; it was always about building a community.”

ABOUT THE HOST
The Steven Sulley Study is my take on success. My view is you should focus on several key areas to be a well-rounded individual. Success should not be just one thing like money, for example, it should also comprise a healthy fit lifestyle and thriving relationships. As a person who has made a success in life and also made some cock-ups, I can offer suggestions and tips on how to become successful or at least start your pursuit of success.
I started from leaving school at 16 with very poor school results to pursue a career in plumbing following the directions of my parents that then lead me to a barrister's chamber and then to a sales floor. From here, I established a foothold in the sales market promoting financial products and being a founder of an art agency that has a Soho based art studio.
In addition, I have invested into an urban fashion brand and into a wellness tech company, and my latest addition to the business portfolio is a property company that which creates HMO's in Medway, Kent. The diverse range of industries I find myself in has allowed me to create wealth that enables me to be my boss so I can pursue my dreams.
As a former boxer and avid sportsman, I find there are similarities between the running of businesses and competing. In my episodes, I will share some of my experiences to explore deeper these connections and how they may bring you success."

When Steven thinks about what a successful person looks like, it’s someone well-travelled, trained, positive, with personal wealth and assets and no one fits that profile better than this week’s guest, Stephen Doran.
Stephen is an ex-firefighter who grew tired of never having enough. Taking the reins of his life, he determined to do better for himself financially. Since then he has carved out a new life for himself as a coach, author, NLP trainer, investor and speaker.
As Stephen puts it, you only get one life, but if you get it right, then one is enough.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
Too many people study in order to improve themselves but don’t take action. Information is nothing without implementation.
There’s a difference between fearlessness and courageousness. Courage is being able to recognise fear, saddle up and take it on.
Setting goals is a good practice, but it’s far more valuable to set habits. Goals are dependent on too many variables. Habits are fixed programs that have no chance of failure.
The one currency we have is time. How we spend our time is what makes the difference in our lives. Get the most for your currency.
Live daily is Stephen’s mantra. It’s about finding the balance between working and living; maxing out your potential. Work but don’t forget to live.
If you don’t have someone in your life who inspires you then find them. But also ask yourself the question, are you the person in your circle that should be inspiring others?
Even if you don’t think you can do something, you should still try. It’s only during these moments that you find out what you’re really capable of.
Stephen’s main mission in life is to leave the world a little bit better than the way he found it. Small improvements everywhere will make the next generation’s experience here a little better. It’s all a butterfly effect.
Now is everything we have. The moment in which we’re living is the most important of your life.
BEST MOMENTS
‘I think it’s great to understand electricity, but it’s more useful to be able to flip the switch and turn on the light sometimes’
‘Personal development was a beautiful accident for me’
‘Hell on earth is reaching your last day on earth and meeting the person you could have become’
‘It’s about maxing out your potential’
‘If you follow in someone’s footsteps you’ll always be behind them’
‘I’d rather be healthy than wealthy. But I don’t have to be so I take both’

ABOUT THE GUEST
With a passion for helping others, at aged 19 he became a firefighter for London Fire Brigade. Frustrated financially, he decided that he wanted better for himself, as well as others, so he built several very successful companies whilst working as a firefighter. As result of his success and popularity in the media he was inundated with requests for support and advice and realised that many others could benefit from the lessons he had learned.
Eventually, he decided to leave the fire service at age 26. Since then he has made it his personal mission to help others to break free from physical, psychological and financial limitations.

Steven’s guest this time is Marcello Spooks, as Spotify calls him, “one of the most authentic all-rounders in the flourishing UK scene”.
Marcello’s music comes from his soul, engineered specifically to give his listeners a sense of progression and growth; to make them able to conquer what’s ahead of them.
In this powerful conversation, you’ll learn about Marcello’s background, his message, his methodology, the power of adversity, realising your self-worth, and the importance of making art that’s true to the artist.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
The main reason Marcello makes music is to lift people up; songs that make you feel and think at the same time, an experience through music that leaves you feeling better about yourself, or something you might be going through. Music has been Marcello’s best friend, especially through the tougher times. Music and art have been his catharsis. Challenges can be met head-on and translated to art, which in turn helps to heal others who need it. The most powerful way to deal with tragedy or adversity in your life is to channel that experience into your art. Each experience leaves a powerful mark, and it’s a testament to your character if you can turn that pain into a lesson. Music is a reflection of your reality. Drill is an evolution of Grime, more graphic and more intense. It evolved quietly, and unfortunately is being exploited by people like BBC One Extra, who are taking intensely personal Drill songs about life experiences and turning them into hits. Kids now think this is the norm, when that isn’t the case. Finding your purpose and going for it is essentially for your soul. Negativity and heartache manifested itself in a physical condition throughout 2017 for Marcello. But by embracing the positives in his life, the pain has slowly faded away. Confidence is everything. Confidence in the fact that you’re living the best version of yourself. You only have one shot. Do your best to make sure that you, and the people around you, feel the best that they can in any given moment. Ask for what you want and don’t feel scared. Life in general operates on a single wavelength. The moment you raise yourself above, everyone else has to jump. Work out your self-value and don’t compromise. There’s a point where you have to draw a line in the sand and affirm your value. True self-confidence is not something you’re born with. It’s often the result of years of self-development. It’s fine to be that confident. It means you believe in yourself, and it’s too rare these days. Adversity is never personal. Remember that bad things happen and they’re out of your control. Saints die in tsunamis. The universe doesn’t have an agenda against you.
BEST MOMENTS
’Success doesn’t have to be about one thing’
’None of my songs are rooted in tragedy. They’re all about progress’
‘It’s about your interpretation of that adversity’
’Things don’t happen to you, they happen for you’
‘Drill has an expiration date, and if you don’t realise your potential then so will you’
‘I never want to do what people expect of me. Ever’
‘In good business, sometimes you have to be savage’
‘I don’t talk. I act’
‘Invest in radiators, not drains'

The Steven Sulley Study is celebrating its 51st episode with huge gratitude for listeners and viewers as it moves forward. Steven reflects on his podcasting and the importance of a digital footprint for everyone whoever they are.
In this mixed episode discover why Steven has a passion for podcasting and what he learnt from the training sessions with athletes Mel Deane, Conrad Williams and Bradley Skeete. He reflects on both the diversity and commonality between these athletes and shares the traits they have all developed in the pursuit of success.
KEY TAKEAWAYS If you are starting your own business part of your strategy should be to have some kind of online engagement. It’s vital to build your digital footprint and reach.
The passion of podcasting I love meeting new guests. Every time I do a podcast I’m expanding my network and I believe your net worth is determined by your network. My guests educate, inspire and motivate me when they share challenges in their lives and how they have successfully overcome adversity. Employers today jump on to see your social media presence across Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, LinkedIn, It’s the modern-day CV
Different sports, different people, shared passion, determination and mindset Mel Deane – Irish rugby player, played for Harlequins, Sale Sharks and his country now retired. Heart of a lion with admirable aggressive animal instincts focused on scoring the points required. Determined to get through ‘melting’ whoever stood in the way. Conrad Williams – track and field sprinter from Caribbean, represented GB in 2012 Olympic games. Preparing 2, 3 and 5 years in advance of Olympics physically, emotionally and through the right mindset. No short-term gratification but complete dedication to achieving the goals set. Bradley Skeete - British Welter Weight boxing champion currently on hiatus but preparing for a return to the ring in the near future. If you don’t prepare in the gym, don’t put the hard graft in you’re going to bleed more in the ring you are going to get found out. Bradley has an inner belief that helps him to endure the snakes and ladders effect in boxing – a win can put you on top and in demand, a loss can result in having to go back to the start. If you don’t put the hard work in outside of your career, your job, your passion you are going to get found out later - it's going to show up as an opportunity that you can't quite grasp because you’re not prepared. If you are not training you are missing the opportunity to become the
best version of you.
BEST MOMENTS
‘I'm going to show all those motherfuckers who doubted me that I am number 1 and can come back from adversity, I have no doubt Bradley is going to do that’
‘Part of your profile as an individual and as a business person is that you should be doing more things online to build your digital footprint’
‘Had someone stop me in the street and talk about my podcast, which was very humbling’

Steven is in conversation, at Woodbury House, with Tom Blackford, illustrator, comic artist, muralist, and art director. His subject matter is often dark although executed using a vivid and distinct colour palette.
Tom shares his journey as an artist and the development of style and technique which led to the very distinctive work he now creates both on the street as a graffiti artist and on canvas as an illustrator.
They discuss the inspiration and influences for his artwork and how the varying mediums he works across influence each other in the creation of work that is unique and
thought-provoking.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
How do you manage your time being on social media as an artist? The rise in importance with regard to having a presence on Instagram has changed the landscape of the freelance artist. If your career relies on self-promotion then social media is a vital platform to enable the promotion of work.
How do you go about making the transition from street artist to working on canvas? My background is in illustration, I've always drawn but it wasn’t until I started with graffiti that I really began to understand composition, colour and blending. The techniques I learnt from working on graffiti organically transitioned into working on canvas.
Where does your style come from? I've always had a dark quirky style that better suits individual pieces than narrative work. My formative years of painting with other more experienced artists was a good introduction. Once you come to terms with and master the technical aspects you can then express yourself. All good art should promote a reaction. Even a negative reaction to my work is interesting and demonstrates that I’m doing something right.
What have you gone through and how has it helped your work? I have over the years suffered from anxiety and have found that anxiety and other mental illness is commonplace with artists. I produce my best artwork and am most productive when I’m anxious, stressed or pissed off. The minute I start feeling content is the point at which I begin to experience creative blocks It's not until I want to vent something or get something out that I start to create interesting stuff.
What goals and vision do you have for your work over the next few years? I what to focus more on the canvas work, currently I use the summer months to focus more on street art taking advantage of the longer days and in the winter I work more on canvas. Working in film is something I want to explore, and I have ideas and a vision for what I want to produce in this medium.
BEST MOMENTS
‘There is a very entrepreneurial mindset involved in being a graffiti or street artist ‘
‘I’ve had work violently painted out before because of someone’s response to my work’ ‘People need an access point to your work and buy into the person, not just the canvas’
‘I think most people will know me for my street work’
‘I try and spend as little time as possible on social media as it can become a black hole for distractions’

Hard work. Determination. Discipline. These are what we can learn best from professional athletes. Olympics may be just plain enjoyment for most of us, but for the athletes, it’s a serious matter – a huge milestone in their career and a dream come true.
Today on The Steven Sully Study Podcast, we get to hear the story of British track and field sprinter Conrad Williams. Discover how he landed a spot on the British team which took part at the 2012 Summer Olympics from just taking part in small county races. It wasn’t a level fat to traverse.
In this episode also, Conrad gives advice for new and aspiring athletes out there. These can even be useful to entrepreneurs if they want to explore a different perspective on how they should take their journey.
KEY TAKEAWAYS From county race to world championship, Conrad went through every step. He trained and improved every single day just to move higher and higher. People can learn a lot from professional athletes. Their determination, discipline, and regard for achieving success is incomparable. Unlike other professions, they don’t have rest. They need to be mindful of their health and fitness 24/7 since this will affect the future of their careers. Joining the Olympics was a dream come true. Conrad has sacrificed so much (i.e. social and leisure activities) to invest more time on training to join the national team. And he’s grateful his loved ones are supportive of his journey. Conrad is also passionate about helping young athletes develop and get to the next level of their career. He wants to share his knowledge and expertise in sports training all over the world. Advice for those who want to be a successful professional athlete: Be patient and don’t compare yourself to anyone. Set realistic goals and after you reach each of them, set your bar higher.
BEST MOMENTS “It’s not just competing; it’s a lifestyle.” “It’s a short-lived sport. We have to make sure we deal with our best with the time we have.” “Life is not rehearsal. You only got one shot at it.” “If you lose the spark or the moment which make you an Olympian and an athlete, everything can fall away quickly.” “The relationships become the very best version of you. It’s important to have right core group around you.”

Resistance to change is futile. What we deem as steady right now might not be. So, it’s always good to reassess, to learn, and to prepare for what’s next.
Today on The Steven Sulley Study Podcast, we talk to Bradley ‘Super’ Skeete, a professional welterweight boxer about his boxing career and his plans. There are many things that sports teach us – talk about discipline, determination and teamwork among other stuff- but what some athletes aren’t aware of is the need for having to manage your financial life. Bradley has long seen the need for post-career, financial planning. That is why he set up his own business, Super Fit Boxing & Training Business.
Also, he also gives advice for aspiring professional boxers and gives us an update on when he’s going back to the ring. Bradley would like to fight for a European title again. Find out more on these when you tune in.
KEY TAKEAWAYS There will be times that our emotions will get the best of us. Know how to properly deal with them. You can’t just shove them under the rug or hold it in. talk it to your support group, your family or friends. If you’re trying to achieve personal development, career growth, business expansion, or anything, also improve your physical health. Sound decisions and new come naturally if your body and mind is in a health state. Understand that there’s nothing permanent. Bradley acknowledges the fact that he can’t be in professional boxing for the rest of his life. But know at the end of cycles, there are new beginnings. Bradley is looking forward to more time he can spend with his family and his business. Financial education is vital for all athletes. It might seem stable since you’re experiencing the peak of your career, but what happens if you suddenly fall off? Prepare for your future. If you feel that you’re not equipped with enough knowledge and skills to secure financial stability, have a mentor and start learning. Bradley’s advice for aspiring boxers: “Don’t be put off by it. The main thing is going to the gym and doing it. Once you’re in there, it’s enjoyable. I just believe that its hard work and dedication that you have to put in to anything.”
BEST MOMENTS “Life is never a rehearsal; you only get one shot. You can never waste it. Or, you can go after your goals, aspirations and visions, and be the best version of you.” - Steven “Sometimes, life feels like it’s on top of you too much. And every so often, you need to step back.” – Steven “There’s always someone there to listen. You got to have a good unit, a good base, a good team around you.” – Bradley “You can never stop learning.” – Bradley

ABOUT THE HOST
The Steven Sulley Study is my take on success. My view is you should focus on a number of key areas to be a well-rounded individual. Success should not be just one thing like money, for example, it should also consist of a healthy fit lifestyle and thriving relationships. As a person who has made a success in life and also made some cock-ups, I can offer suggestions and tips on how to become successful or at least start your pursuit of success.
I started from leaving school at 16 with very poor school results to pursue a career in plumbing following the directions of my parents that then lead me to a barrister's chamber and then to a sales floor. From here, I established a foothold in the sales market promoting financial products as well as being a founder of an art agency that has a Soho based art studio.
In addition, I have invested into an urban fashion brand and into a wellness tech company, and my latest addition to the business portfolio is a property company that which creates HMO's in Medway, Kent. The diverse range of industries I find myself in has allowed me to create wealth that enables me to be my own boss so I can pursue my dreams.
As a former boxer and avid sportsman, I find there are similarities between the running of businesses and competing. In my episodes, I will be sharing some of my experiences to explore deeper these connections and how they may bring you success."

Health and fitness should always be put high up on your list. Though we’ve seen a huge trend on how people are becoming more aware and more mindful of how they take care of themselves, most can’t sustain, and even start, their fitness journey.

When you are healthy physically and mentally, you and your goals are unstoppable.

This practice of him has benefitted him ever since, especially now that he’s managing his own business. Sports was something Mel saw and considered a haven when he was young. He was overweight and bullied when he was a kid, so he thought if he learned a sport, none of the bullying will happen anymore. Whenever you make an important decision, make sure you have all the resources first. It must bring a huge impact on any aspect of your life. Commitment is a key attribute to anyone’s success. If you’ve set your goal, made the plans, and about to start the journey, be dedicated. There’s no backing out now. Despite the necessity to forward in your career, financial education is something that isn’t accessible to anyone.
BEST MOMENTS “When you train, train for a purpose.” “The first thing you need to get right before you think any business strategy, is to get healthy.” “Identify the people that will go the long mile with you.” “Put out to the world what you want to receive back.” “You’re always a work in progress; you can add to what you are.”

If you’re looking for a significant hotspot where you will start building your property portfolio, then this episode of The Steven Sully Podcast is for you. Today, Steven Sully talks to Paul Nicholson from the Nicholson Group to talk about his property journey. From scratch, Paul was able to grow and build his property portfolio and then build his own company. Discover why he ought to stay away from the prime cities and focus his attention on the undiscovered areas. He saw the possibility, learned how he could improve the area, and achieved success.
Paul also shares that it’s important to know your WHY, to always learn, to have a mentor, to have a healthy daily routine, and many more. Discover how these have helped him to be a better person. Tune in to know more about Paul’s journey and start learning about investment strategies.
KEY TAKEAWAYS Paul has always had big dreams and always wanted nice things in life. He chose to put a halt in pursuing his law career and started diving in property investing when he saw the possibilities of growth and wealth in it. In just 10 years, he was able to grow his portfolio to as much as 200 properties including flats, commercial units, terrace houses, etc. When looking for financing for investment properties, make sure that your dreams, ambitions, and plans are reflected from your portfolio, so they can know what are they getting into. People wouldn’t dare explore areas like Kensington because it’s a bad place to invest in properties, but Paul did and was able to grow his portfolio there. He did the thorough research, so he knew what he can develop and turn the poor conditions around.
Paul chose to stay away from places that are already saturated because of the heavy competition and high inflation rates. It’s important to have a vision and a WHY. It makes a huge difference if we don’t chase for money and instead have a more fulfilling purpose. Networking can help you stand out in the market, learn new stuff, and start new partnerships. Attend property events, and also start joining online property discussion groups. The near-future of the property market shouldn’t be your basis when you should start your property journey. As long as there is determination, optimism, and adaptability, you’ll be able to succeed where the market is down.
BEST MOMENTS “I have a golden rule all the time where I take what the end value would be.” “Make sure you do your research and don’t just flood in the areas where others are.” “We aren’t in the greatest location. It’s not a prime city, but the savings in terms of the clients makes it an option.” “When you don’t tell people what you’re good at and what you’re doing, how would they even know? You got to say your message out loud.” “I learned as I go, which is probably the worst thing that I have done. The sleepless nights, the stress and the stress… If I had a mentor, if I listened to podcasts, I wouldn’t do those mistakes.”

‘Everything has a ‘why’ to it, finding the ‘why’ for your goal will propel you to achieve what you want to achieve’
In this episode, Steven is in conversation with Anton Ferdinand, professional footballer and entrepreneur. They discuss the underpinning core values that have driven Anton throughout his successful footballing career and the challenges professional athletes face when they transition to retirement.
KEY TAKEAWAYS Why is mindset important?
Having a brother who was already a successful footballer made it challenging, I was always being compared to him when I was on the pitch.
I had my own ambitions, goals and purpose and was very focused on achieving.
The negativity can help you; it gave me the drive to move forward. When something didn’t go well I asked myself what could I do better?
People allow negative external beliefs, events and the words and actions of others to affect them and alter their perspective on life but you can use it as a driver to show others what you can do.
If you have a weakness then understand it and work on it day in day out until it become a strength. With money comes responsibility, how do you deal with it?
I’ve never had any education about money and when you first have money, you go through a period of having what you want before you understand the importance of investing for the future.
As a footballer you just want to know how much you are going to make, you don’t ask about risk.
If you seek education about any new area you want to work in you are able to mitigate some of the risks. Continuing your education and having the right people around you is key for any entrepreneur.
As a footballer, you have to prepare for the day when you are not playing. You have to find something that gives you buzz you get standing in the tunnel on a Saturday.
Lots of footballers now retire from the premier league and then begin a second career abroad and are able to build their brand through new endorsements. What are your next steps?
I know I can add value and give back helping others. I’m moving into finance but still, want to remain connected to football.
I'm interested in active coaching, being able to implement what you are directing others to do.
If you have done what they are aspiring to do and are working with them day in and day out before they get to the first team what sort of impact would that have?’
You can go in two-fold as a coach, someone who’s training with them and provide advice to mould them into a professional of the future.
Footballers have got no choice other than to plan for the future if they want to continue with a similar lifestyle to the one they’ve had during their professional careers so planning for the future is vital. How important is it to be physically fit?
At the core of everything is energy so it’s vital to be healthy. You gain confidence from being fit but you have to adjust as you get older. The energy you feel from ‘eating clean’ is a huge boost.
With nutrition it's about finding what works for you, having a balance. It’s important to achieve an alkaline state and understanding what you are eating is vital.
It’s down to me to make sure when I retire I keep on top of staying healthy and nutrition, so I am able to maintain what I have spent 17 years creating.
Without the hard graft, the talent means nothing. What advice would you give someone else?
Be true to yourself, know what your core values are and be true to those values.
When things get tough and you don’t know where to go, go back to your core values they will put you in good stead for whatever you want to achieve because you might have a goal, but you’ve got to have a ‘why’
When you are content you become complacent, when you are happy you can always strive for more.
BEST MOMENTS
‘When things get tough and people doubt me that’s when you see the best’
‘I just love being on the pitch, being on the grass’
‘The door is unlocked but I’ve still got to perform, he can’t go out and do that for me’
‘I'm loud and a joker on the training ground and in the dressing room but the minute I get on the pitch it's serious’
‘Having core values, always going back to the basics’

“When we are free and able to focus on our highest values and undertake meaningful work, we become better human beings”
Since starting his first business at 22 years old, Jason Graystone has successfully built and run multi-million-pound businesses both in the service sector and online. At age 24, Jason found a love for investing. A combination of passive investing and speculation in the financial markets allowed him to adopt a powerful wealth acceleration strategy, helping him achieve complete financial independence and making him a millionaire in his late 20’s.
Jason’s contribution in the financial education space has been recognised as being radically transparent and transferable. His refreshingly honest and insightful approach to helping other investors and traders succeed has since been commended by Forbes magazine which he has been featured in for his innovative work towards trader development.
A large part of his trading success was built on a foundation of becoming a business owner first. His obsession with statistics and data is what he believes has led him to discover the missing links in today's trading education.
Jason has a vast global successful trading community made up of serious traders and investors who are part of the Tier One Trading platform.
Jason believes that everyone deserves to live an inspired life.
Listen now as Steven meets Jason head on to talk about his journey, past present and future.
KEY TAKEAWAYS At an early age, Jason was made to believe that those with money were a negative force, mainly due to the deprivations of the area he grew up in. But instead of embracing this belief, Jason chose to find out more and became determined to ascend. Jason displayed an entrepreneurial mindset from the off, turning a single-handed car-washing enterprise into a thriving local business, and by doing so, affording himself the opportunity to buy a bicycle he’d been coveting. Often, being poor, whether financially or in your mindset, can lead to bitterness and resentment towards those with means. Steven and Jason both believe that these figures should be seen as inspirational. Investments for Jason are all about innovation, technology and lifestyle. In his view, bricks and mortar are all things that decay over time, and so he resists the urge to invest in them. He prefers to sink his time into furthering advances in ideas and services. Jason sees cryptocurrency as the future of all currency, even going so far as to speculate that the pound will be obsolete one day. Facebook’s own currency, in particular, is one to watch. Jason wants to change people’s attitudes towards money, wealth and on 'being an entrepreneur'. He believes that education is fundamentally flawed when it comes to these things. We are taught that we must work for forty-five years and then retire on whatever we manage to save, little realising that through investment and creativity, we can sometimes retire much sooner. Jason has always reinvested ten per cent of his income on self-development, whether that’s seminars, webinars or events. Networking is key to investment. Build systems into your business that allow it to grow and flourish. Always be on the lookout for ways to grow. Being transparent forces you to be more honest. If you imagine that Google is watching everything you say or do online and that everything you put out there is “Googleable”, then you’ll more than likely be successful. For those wishing to get into trading, Jason advises patience and education; learning about the process, and watching others in action, or as Jason puts it “learning about the breathing patterns of the market”. Build your trading system into your current life, instead of the other way around. Trading is 20% technical, and 80% psychology. It’s all about checking your emotions and holding your nerve. It won’t suit everyone. It’s about developing the discipline to follow your pre-defined trading strategy every day. A good trade is one that meets the rules that you’ve tested regardless of the outcome.
BEST MOMENTS
‘You don’t talk like your parents. That’s because I don’t want to be like my parents’
‘By using money the right way, you can actually free up your time. There’s a smarter way to make money’
‘I believe in investing in life’
‘It’s what I call esoteric information’
‘Entrepreneurs want free time’
‘When you’re free to focus on more meaningful stuff, you’re a better human’
‘At the end of the day, we all want certainty’
‘Consistency is everything in trading’
‘If you want to increase your level of self-development, go through your incomes and outgoings, see where you can make savings, and spend it on a webinar a week or a coach or a book’
‘The more you share, the more you grow’

Steven talks to actor and film producer, Terry Stone, who began life as a rave promoter, but who in 2003 switched gears entirely and began a new phase in his life as an actor.
From an early age, Terry refused to accept the status quo, and from humble beginnings, chose to do whatever it took to achieve his dreams in life. Hear Terry talk about his recipe for a successful life, as well as the core beliefs that have shaped his outlook.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
Self-belief will give you anything you want in life. By telling yourself that you can make it, by giving yourself constant affirmations, you can achieve all your goals in life. The recession caused Terry to lose his house and his job, and at his lowest ebb, he could very well have decided that all his chances had passed him by. But after attending a rave one night, he saw the potential in a new career in promotions and ended up making a success of himself. From his sales background, Terry used his natural charisma to become a leading force in the early 90’s rave culture, putting on events and marketing them using his innate entrepreneurial skills. You learn far more from failure than you do from success. It’s not about how many times you get knocked down, it’s about how many times you get up afterwards. Too many people seem to think that they can achieve their goals in life without working for them. This is an unfortunate side-effect of celebrity culture. But those who put the work in, always reap the richest rewards. Drama taught Terry how to stand up in front of a crowd and perform, a skill he applies not just to his acting career, but also to his experience in sales. Terry believes that people like Nigel Farage are doing so well because their message is simple and uncluttered. People who speak with clarity and directness will always appeal to those that people find confusing. When Terry took up acting, he did everything he could to learn about the craft. He took classes, took coaching, and applied his same driven spirit into this new career. There’s always room to learn, and room to grow, no matter what your profession is. Terry’s most valuable advice for aspiring actors is to examine your ambitions and make sure they’re compatible with the actor’s life. You must be prepared to work hard and to expect many failures along the way. Perseverance is everything, and realistically, many acting careers do not match the dreams that many aspiring actors have. We should always be looking for the next challenge. Winners never quit and quitters never win. Find what you’re happy doing and stick at it.
BEST MOMENTS
‘Anybody can achieve anything if they put their mind to it’
‘It all stems from having that positive outlook’
‘If you’re putting it out there and you’re working hard, you’re going to get stuff’
‘You could be a genius, but if you can’t speak to someone, look them in the eye, then so what?’
‘People become actors because it’s fun. People want to be King Lear or a cockney or a psychopath’
‘It’s no good being the richest person in the graveyard’
‘The only advice that’s ever meant something to me is “Be Yourself”’
‘Winners never quit and quitters never win’

Jonny Garrett is the founder of William Wood Watches, a British luxury watch brand dedicated to his grandfather who served in the British Fire Service for 25 years. Jonny creates unique watches made from upcycled rescue service materials and donates a percentage of profits to a firefighters charity.
Jonny is currently working full time in a Commercial Bank whilst building up his watch company on the side. We take a deeper look into how Jonny manages living two different lives, having already achieved admirable accolades such as being awarded Entrepreneur of the Year by Esquire Magazine and set to break the six-figure revenue point in his business.
Hear from Jonny about how to fit as much as possible into your day whilst executing consistent habits that lead to successful outputs. This is a real entrepreneur in the heart of his grind.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
Jonny’s father was very entrepreneurial and his mother was more risk-averse. This had a profound effect on Jonny’s psychology. He has maintained a successful career in finance, while devoting the other half of his life to building his own luxury watch brand.
If you have a plan, mission or vision, you should always follow your dreams. You can achieve anything if you put your mind to it.
Sometimes we can learn more from practical experience than we can from higher education. It’s all very well gaining degrees and qualifications, but without the knowledge of how to apply these things to a career, they can be rendered useless.
Jonny named his brand, William Wood Watches after his grandfather, who to him, represented leadership, chivalry and quality. Jonny’s grandfather was a firefighter for over twenty-five years. To better represent, and to pay tribute to, firefighters the world over, Jonny’s brand upcycle firefighter equipment into their luxury brand items.
A unique selling point is paramount in the luxury market. Jonny’s USP is his story, that of his grandfather, which he feels reflects itself in each and every item he sells. When people buy into the brand, they are buying a piece of Jonny’s story.
Jonny describes the period in which he decided to launch his brand as his “Pandora’s Box” moment - a literal time in his life when the cauldron of ideas in his mind was shaking each day. It’s all very well to come up with ideas, but success lies in acting upon these ideas.
Jonny does not measure prospective success in terms of money or financial gain, but by time.
It’s important to take the leap towards action. Sometimes putting ourselves under the right amount of professional pressure can lead to a self-education that we might not otherwise consider. If our needs are such, then we will often work to meet those needs. But if we keep moving the goalposts, then we will end up procrastinating too much.
Marketing takes ingenuity, especially for a fledgeling business. Jonny has researched extensively and has focussed his attention upon the fire and rescue services throughout the UK, contacting them individually, and cleverly targeting their retiring firefighters as potential customers. Again, the importance of the story behind the William Wood Watches brand is the key to appealing to this market.
It’s incredibly beneficial to get the advice and support from someone who’s walked the path before you. That’s why mentors can be so important to your journey.
The key to sales is to find your highly targeted audience and perfecting your marketing plan.
BEST MOMENTS
‘Before anyone invests into a brand, they should learn about the people behind the brand’
‘I don’t think anything in your background should hold you back’
‘It’s more about your willpower than your qualifications or skills’
‘The watch market, and the luxury market is very competitive, so you need a USP’
‘The exciting thing is, what can I achieve by working on William Wood full time?’
‘Having a routine is absolutely key’
‘You can’t master something if you’re not measuring it’
‘If you want to do something, do it now and do it big’
‘Go through the motions, put the hard work in, execute your plan, and the vision becomes the reality’
‘You need to show 100% year-on-year growth’
‘I am living proof that you can set up your own business while working a full-time job’

In today’s episode of the Steven Sully Study Podcast, Steven talks to graffiti artist DAZE, aka Chris Ellis, about his exclusive pop up exhibition titled ‘The Journey’ at the Woodbury House. Daze’s current exhibit is a big eyeopener to the current political climate of the world he lives in. Aside from this, we hear him talk about his life as an artist, how New York City has progressed ever since, his influences and other contemporary artists. Daze also gives advice to aspiring artists who want to follow his footsteps, so start listening in!
KEY TAKEAWAYS Daze shares stories about some renowned artists:
Richard Hambleton was Daze’s landlord in the 80s. Daze praises how methodical Richard is after witnessing most of his work in progress for how many years. According to Daze, Keith Haring was not just a famous art figure, he was also an activist bringing awareness and fighting for human rights. Daze is influenced by different things – other artists, other artworks, music, place, etc. And for most artists, emotions or any current happenings can massively influence the art. Putting a price on his artworks is the very last thing he’ll ever do. It somehow destroys the creative process. DAZE’s advice for artists who want to follow his footsteps:
1 – “Paint or create work because you got an inner need to do that.” 2 – “You got to have good work ethics.” 3 – “Be cautious with who you work with.” Daze’s Top 3 Artists: Reginald Marsh, George Condo, and Caravaggio As an artist, Daze does not see any harm in using social media to promote his art. Sometimes, he posts images to share with his followers. And most importantly, he gets updated with the current state of world affairs.
BEST MOMENTS “Pain can be a real influence to creation.” “Even with a sketch, you’ll never really know what it’s gonna look like without actually start painting it.” “Those [art price] kind of numbers are so abstract that it would be hard for me to visualize what it would look like.” “It really helps to have a sense of yourself and what your self-value is.” “Through word of mouth, you can figure out who the people you want to work with or the people you want to stay away from.”

ABOUT THE GUEST
Chris Daze Ellis was born in 1962 in New York City.
He began his prolific Career painting New York City subway cars in 1976 while attending The High School of Art and Design. He remains one of the few artists of his generation to make the successful transition from the subways to the studio. His first group show was the seminal “Beyond Words” at the Mudd Club in 1981. Soon after his first solo exhibition was held at Fashion Moda, an influential alternative art space in the South Bronx. One year later the Sammlung Ludwig, Aachen, Germany acquired the first of several paintings for their permanent collection.

ABOUT THE HOST
The Steven Sulley Study is my take on success. My view is you should focus on a number of key areas to be a well-rounded individual. Success should not be just one thing like money, for example, it should also consist of a healthy fit lifestyle and thriving relationships. As a person who has made a success in life and also made some cock-ups, I can offer suggestions and tips on how to become successful or at least start your pursuit of success.
I started from leaving school at 16 with very poor school results to pursue a career in plumbing following the directions of my parents that then lead me to a barrister's chamber and then to a sales floor. From here, I established a foothold in the sales market promoting financial products as well as being a founder of an art agency that has a Soho based art studio.
In addition, I have invested into an urban fashion brand and into a wellness tech company, and my latest addition to the business portfolio is a property company that which creates HMO's in Medway, Kent. The diverse range of industries I find myself in has allowed me to create wealth that enables me to be my own boss so I can pursue my dreams.
As a former boxer and avid sportsman, I find there are similarities between the running of businesses and competing. In my episodes, I will be sharing some of my experiences to explore deeper these connections and how they may bring you success."

How do you approach mental health in public art? How do you combine a passion for the environment with being an artist? Well, in this fascinating interview with Andrea Tyrimos you’ll listen to an artist doing both. Stephen talks with Andrea Tyrimos about her practice as an artist, how her project Bipolar Picasso started an important conversation about mental health and why using leverage is important to the business side of her work. This is essential listening for anyone involved in the cross-section of wellbeing and contemporary art.
Key Takeaways
What is your background and how did you develop your vision to become an artist? I always loved art and some teachers picked up on it early it on. I remember loving it at school and not really considering it as a viable option. My teacher at the time really pushed me to do A level art. I started to realise that certain stresses in my life were countered by art, I found it relaxing and meditative.
Do you think university helped you as an Artist? I definitely don’t think you need to do it to be successful. If you have got natural talent, then you’ve got it. University isn’t what people think it is. They don’t teach but guide you to find your own voice in art. It gave me a really thick skin because of the levels of feedback you receive, which is good practice for the art world which can be difficult.
How important is networking for you? I’m quite obsessed with painting and can be in the studio for days at a time without leaving. But I’ve realised more recently that you need that time away from the studio, to get energy from others. I love people, and I like to support other people.
Explain how the ‘Telephone Box’ piece came about? I do public art and it often has an environmental theme. I’ve been commissioned by different people including councils. There is a phone box which was going to be removed. To rescue the phone box we decided to provide an art piece to promote cleaner air in London. The more greenery we have the cleaner the air. I wanted it to be interactive. I wanted to show what the constellation of the stars are in that sport if you looked up. So, if the air was clean you’d be able to see them. The beauty of public art is that its in people everyday experience.
Bipolar Picasso, how did that come about? It was inspired by people close to me, who have mental health challenges but they feel they can’t open up about it. It involves me creating art installations from the experiences of the people who have gone through mental health difficulties. Each painting has audio, and I felt that their stories needed to be an essential part of the exhibition. It’s celebrities and members of the public so I’ve interviewed Ricky Hatton alongside others.
Was there a common thing between everyone who was involved in the project? After doing the pieces I was able to reflect. There is a range of issues that are covered from Depression to Bipolar. Most people try to find triggers when they look back on their childhood. Some people are more vulnerable, and it can be hereditary. Sometimes you are able to look back and find an event which is a catalyst or trigger. However, I believe that we have to be a bit more matter of fact about it. It might just be that there is a chemical imbalance in our brain.
What next for Bipolar Picasso? It’s an evolving project. I did think it was one of the projects but the feedback was really positive so I’m going to continue it. Mental health is a bit of a hot topic, and when I did do it originally it wasn’t so galleries were as interested but it’s becoming more and more prevalent. I did it all myself, all the press, and renting out space. Since then I’ve had different support from various galleries.
What advice would you give to become an artist? Make sure you love it. It’s not all going to be daisies and sunshine. You have to be so dedicated, and because it’s just you have to be your own boss. You have to make sure that you are true to yourself.
What're your recommendations for people wanting to be an entrepreneur? You have to explore different avenues. You have to do the social media, and networking, it's not just the product, it's everything else that goes with it. The product should be your main focus but always put time into the other aspects.
What have you been able to leverage? I’m not a techie person, hence why I’m a painter. I struggled with my own website but now I outsource it. I’m trying to learn to leverage. I’m one of these people who likes to learn new things. It’s hard to make that transition to not doing everything yourself.
What have been the main challenges for you? As an artist, it was probably trying to get into the art world. It was perseverance that helped me overcome it. Personally, I realised I wanted to do things that make me happy. I like to hope that one person who views the artwork and it helps or changes then it’s worth it.
Be happy, never content. What does that mean to you? Find your calling and purpose. Once you have found that, you’re sorted.

Doing These 3 Things Daily Will Make You Success
In today's episode Steven discusses 3 things that are vital for leading a successful life. Steven also shares some great podcast suggestions for anyone who is looking to be successful and gives his reasons why.
KEY TAKEAWAYS Edmy Lett is an international life coach and multi-millionaire who I admire so much. He recently shared some great bits of information on his podcast, one of which is 3 things that you can control to improve your life:
Your state – How we’re feeling. For instance, if you’re feeling angry or fearful then control your emotions and get rid of that negativity in a way that suits you. I like to do this by going for a short 5-minute break or walk and regrouping myself before I go back out there and do what I need to do. Your story – This is linked to your state. Usually, when you are feeling down it’s because of your inner self-doubt and what you’re telling yourself mentally. E.g. “This is too hard. I can’t do it. Maybe I’m not built for this. I’m not born to be a winner.” Change the way you talk to yourself so it’s positive and change your story. Your strategy – Are you looking at your work? Are you looking at what the outcome should be for you? Are you being realistic about your strategy? Don’t take the scattergun approach where you are doing all these small things, which bring little bits of success, but not getting anywhere. If you look at any of the successful people in life, they usually have a phenomenal routine and plan that they stick to and become laser focused.
We all have good days and bad days but if you write down these three things daily then you can collate whether you are positively controlling these and turn what may be a bad day into an effective, productive and good one. My main focus is providing my family with a lifestyle that we can enjoy by doing what we want, when we want and how we want. The only way I can do that is by being disciplined and executing my strategies on a daily basis.
BEST MOMENTS
‘Am I controlling my state?’
‘Am I controlling my story?’
‘Am I implementing my strategy? Am I being disciplined towards my strategy? Am I working my plan properly?’
‘The moment you change your story; the moment you change the way you talk to your self’
“A problem is not a problem. It’s a challenge.”
“If you’re going to share a problem, back it up with a solution”
“Success is not just 1 thing”
“When you are laser-focused, nothing can distract you.”
‘Edmy Lett is a G who has spoken alongside people like Andy Frisella and Tony Robbins’.
“Invest in your whole entire life.”
“Do not underestimate the power of exposing yourself to very quality content.”

‘Be kind to yourself and do things by increments, begin by drinking more water and doing some exercise’
In this episode, Steven is in a fascinating conversation with Peter Marcasciano, a personal trainer.
Peter shares his extensive knowledge and experience about how we as humans have evolved and how understanding our past is the key to knowing how we should be exercising and eating now.
This is a fascinating insight into the science and history behind the foods we eat and the ways we exercise, listen in to find out exactly how what you eat impacts on your body and how you exercise influences fitness.
KEY TAKEAWAYS Peter Marcasciano ‘Yoda’ is a specialist in physiotherapy, strength, conditioning and nutrition. He trains and oversees the fitness and well-being of both athletes and high-profile clients. He works with individuals to achieve optimum well-being and performance.
What type of training should the typical individual, who wants to be fit and strong be doing? As Primates, we are designed for walking and jogging. We are designed to walk or jog all day, there are no other species on the planet designed to do what we do. We are born to squat and throw and climb. No other animal can throw at speed as well as we can. If you walk, jog, squat, throw and climb you will be very healthy. If you are training you want to be fit, strong, powerful and endurable with speed Long term research into wellbeing has shown that people who are successful, healthy and get things done all share the common parameter of regular activity. This is not necessarily exercise, it could be gardening, but it is something continuous, something that increased blood flow. With walking, you are meeting the biological imperative, blood flow. Without blood flow you have nothing.
What should we know about nutrition? We are omnivores, able to eat anything. We are designed to eat meat, but the organ meats are the most nutrient dense parts of the body. We are not designed to need meat every day, but it is a necessary part of our diets It all comes down to diet, but the most difficult aspect is minerals. If you eat natural food you will have everything you need from that food in a perfect package. We are wonderfully designed, the first thing that anything entering the human body encounters is the acid of the stomach. Your parasympathetic system is regulating and balancing within your body all the time enabling your body to be in homeostasis. Most people now only eat food from 4 different food groups whilst our ancestors as foragers ate from 100 plus different foods. Go back to basics, go back to what we know our ancestors did, it’s very simple
Why should you avoid heating food quickly, using technology? Microwaves heat from within. In heating from the inside, the cell bursts outwards and is damaged. Microwaves alter the shape of molecules and in rearranging the shape of the molecules and the ability of the human body to use them is destroyed. The best investment you can ever make is in yourself. You have to pursue something that has meaning for you.
BEST MOMENTS
At the end of the day if you die in the forest that forest will eat you up’
‘A sky burial is giving the body back to nature’
‘Common sense isn’t that common ‘
‘Personal training is like anything else you get good ones and bad ones regardless of any qualifications they may have’
‘Try and find the trainer who has their heart in the right place and knows their stuff’

‘This is a conversation that is about everything and nothing, just like those great conversations in the pub’
This engaging podcast provides a fascinating opportunity to hear Tim Lovejoy in conversation with Steven. They discuss a wide range of topics sharing their opinions and views on the world we live in. Hear about how Tim started on television, the journey he has been on and some of the fascinating people he has interviewed.
Tune in now to hear about what’s intriguing and interesting Tim at the moment.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
What's your background? I loved football and basketball but found everything else boring and left school as soon as I could. I made a decision based on the fact I liked to talk to get into television and I did I wasn’t good at selling myself but was prepared to go the extra mile. You had to be persistent and it was the boom time for TV. There is always an element of luck. Persistence and desperation played a huge part in driving me forward.
What’s it’s like presenting ‘The Sunday Brunch’? The most important work in a show is completed before you go on air. It involves speaking with the guests and getting to know them, putting them at ease and getting a feel for what they are thinking. There have been some really interesting guests when you meet bands you realise that to be successful they have to work really hard and put the time in.
What’s your take on Social Media? I have a real problem with social media because I have to use it. I need to gain feedback via social media and am aware that it takes over my time. You can easily get caught in the cycle, it’s a real problem for me but I am able to acknowledge it.
You have spoken in the past about suffering from depression, what was it like? When I first started getting depression I never told anybody because I was worried it would mean losing my job and friends. Now when I’m going through a period of depression I am open and tell others. Being depressed hurts, humans are very good at moving on from things and you don’t keep remembering how dark it was. I eventually sought help through therapy and also read extensively to understand why I felt the way I did. When you are coming out of depression you can then see the good things the reasons to enjoy life. When I have depression there is something wrong in my life, it’s me telling me it’s not working.
Is it important to have a purpose in life? Finding a purpose in life is important, doing my podcast where I get to interview interesting people is important to me. My investments are about investing in me through things such as podcasts. It’s definitely worth trying to find purpose, if you can do it across different aspects of your life then there will be a better balance in your life.
What's next? I like it when things change and currently, YouTube is evolving and looking at more long form formats and this makes it a very interesting area to be in at the moment. If you want to become credible then make sure you are visible to your audience so they can get to know you, then other opportunities may come from it. There is no finishing line in life, every day there is a battle the hardest lesson to learn is that you are responsible for your life.
BEST MOMENTS
‘It’s a tough job if you are just trying to make money’
‘Persistence and desperation played a huge part in driving me forward’
‘There is nothing to know on TV just ideas’
The relentlessness of posting if you are an influencer is intense
‘It doesn’t matter what you buy or own you have to make a decision about it’

‘I didn’t know what I wanted in life until I put on a glove and punched, be happy with what you have but always strive for more and never compare yourself to others’
Steven is in conversation with Ohara Davies, Super-Lightweight boxer about his career, his inspiration and his vision moving forward.
They discuss the importance for professional athletes in building a future, education and how Ohara uses social media to promote himself and his fights.
Listen in to hear about the journey and what it’s really like to be Ohara Davies, professional fighter.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
What does boxing mean to you? Whatever you want to do it’s the focus and the consistency that counts. Without boxing, I wouldn’t have realised the importance of focus and consistency in reaching and achieving your goals. Achieving better levels of fitness altered my mindset. I was able to see that working hard and being consistent were attributes that could be used in any field or business.
How important are mentors? My mentors have been the people who have been my coaches. I have learnt about finance and investment from them and by watching how other people live and the mistakes they make I have been able to manage my own life successfully.
How important is it to build for the future? Many professional athletes make the mistake of spending to build an image rather than investing to build for the future but it’s better to be rich rather than look rich. The fundamentals of buying assets or liabilities are understanding that liability is something that is costing you money, such as a car, whilst an asset is something that puts money into your pocket. Even if the amount is small, if it is regular such as every month it will compound.
Was education important? School serves a purpose but its outdated and you are not given the opportunity to learn about what matters in life such as understanding finance, tax and how to start a business. It is as if you are being programmed to fail.
What’s the difference between a boxing training regime and a fitness regime? In boxing, you are working every muscle in your body. You need to work much harder to improve and maintain fitness across all areas of your body making fitness in boxing much harder to achieve than in other sports.
How important is it for you to promote yourself? As a fighter its vital to bring attention to yourself, however, you do it. On the build-up, to a fight, you should be posting every day on social media to build interest. A fighter can be good but it’s vital he puts himself out there.
BEST MOMENTS
‘Boxing has given me a huge amount of confidence. Having confidence is a life skill that is transferable’
‘I look for opportunities to keep myself in the public eye, this arrogant persona is all an act’
‘You need all sorts of different characters in this sport’
‘You need to work very hard on the right thing’

They discuss the journey Emily has made encompassing the highs and lows and the influence life events have had on her choices.
This open and honest podcast is an engaging listen with a hugely positive message.
KEY TAKEAWAYS Working on Superyachts was a very spontaneous corner turn in my life but provided incredible opportunities and was a life-changing experience. Travelling feeds, the soul and you meet and get to know lots of different people building rapport and relationships with wide-ranging individuals.
How does having a strong social presence affect your life? It is a gift and my followers have been through my experiences with me. It is possible to build relationships and share important messages via social media It’ an Important tool to build relationships, create impact and share awareness of significant messages. Social platforms have changed the way media works now as influencers are such a big tool. There is also a downside to social media. It isn’t reality it’s a percentage of it, it’s a highlight real. People can get addicted to scrolling and sharing this can be detrimental to individuals who become worried about getting likes. People can share the ups and downs but it’s never going to be totally authentic However, it can be used to impact and share messages. It is a work tool that can be used to connect with people and aligning with brands I believe in is exciting for me.
What were your challenges and what positives have you taken from it? I lost myself and didn’t know how to reach out and get help, as a young girl I developed negative habits and coping mechanisms and didn’t know how to get out of it. It was a big climb and you have to change, I’m a completely different person. It’s about learning different mechanisms to cope with the stresses in your life. You need to learn to eat to be healthy and happy. When you’re eating well you feel better and the right foods feed your soul. The POW - Power Of Wellness company focuses on the corporate world, with the creation and supply of nutritionally designed and sustainable foods that have a positive impact. Eating well is a core component of who we are. When you are running a start-up, it takes up a huge amount of your time but it’s important to network and attend network events surrounding yourself with people who are going through similar things and will lift you up. To be fulfilled is about constantly changing and growing as your environment changes and alters around you.

Be a better fighter and a better trainer.
Today on The Steven Sully Study Podcast, Steven interviews Ross about his boxing career, his personal life, and his brainchild, the Queensbury Boxing League. Queensbury Boxing League, a new boxing platform which was launched in 2010, has given new perspectives to the UK boxing scene ever since.
Ross also gives excellent advice for aspiring boxers and trainers out there. There’s a particular dynamic between a trainer and a fighter that needs to be built and developed so that they both better themselves. Know the difference between amateur and professional boxing, the importance of discipline, and the realities of earning with professional boxing when you tune in.
KEY TAKEAWAYS Ross Minter didn’t see himself as a professional boxer like his dad Alan Minter who’s also a former World Middleweight Champion. But when his dad started a boxing gym, he observed, tried things out, and loved it. At 15, he began as an amateur boxer and became a professional boxer when he was 21. What is a mentor? According to Ross, a mentor is someone who’s there for you to guide you while your best interest is at heart. They’re 100% there for you and put a lot of time & effort for you. Discipline is a critical practice that Ross embodies outside and inside the ring. Once he gets home from training, the discipline of keeping yourself in shape does not stop. He always does a nutritional check. He never got tempted with smoking, drinking, and other vices. Keep reality in check. It does not mean that when you get to the level that you wanted (i.e. becoming a professional boxer), everything will not come in easy. Sometimes while you follow your dreams, you need to get full-time or part-time jobs so you could put food on the table. “When you turn pro, it’s not a nice business to be in. It’s a business, for one. Two, it’s all about money which business is. And, three, you’re a piece of meat – meaning, you’re someone that’s gonna be put in there for the businessman to manoeuvre you.” – Ross He, together with his partner Alan Foley, set up the Queensbury Boxing League in 2010 which offers a new structure for professional boxing matches. It tries to reinvent the wheel, and they pride on prioritising their players’ conditions.
BEST MOMENTS “Knowing your body and being the focus and also having that discipline…when you’re at home, being discipline at everything exactly is very hard to do.” “The mechanics are important in training someone, but also the mindset.” “You need always to learn… Keep learning all the time.” “What I like about boxing is you can transfer that mindset, skillset, and that characteristic over onto other things in your life – family, business, or whatever it may be in your social relationships.”

ABOUT THE HOST
The Steven Sulley Study is my take on success. My view is you should focus on a number of key areas to be a well-rounded individual. Success should not be just one thing like money, for example, it should also consist of a healthy fit lifestyle and thriving relationships. As a person who has made a success in life and also made some cock-ups, I can offer suggestions and tips on how to become successful or at least start your pursuit of success.
I started from leaving school at 16 with very poor school results to pursue a career in plumbing following the directions of my parents that then lead me to a barrister's chamber and then to a sales floor. From here, I established a foothold in the sales market promoting financial products as well as being a founder of an art agency that has a Soho based art studio.
In addition, I have invested into an urban fashion brand and into a wellness tech company, and my latest addition to the business portfolio is a property company that which creates HMO's in Medway, Kent. The diverse range of industries I find myself in has allowed me to create wealth that enables me to be my own boss so I can pursue my dreams.
As a former boxer and avid sportsman, I find there are similarities between the running of businesses and competing. In my episodes, I will be sharing some of my experiences to explore deeper these connections and how they may bring you success."

High-end watches, art and cars can be a great investment, that can withstand any recession. In this episode, Rob talks with Steven Sulley, and former professional footballer Kieran Richardson about their shared love for all things art, cars and watches. They talk through about how to get into each market, what to look for when investing your cash and how it's all about passion. If you’re thinking of investing in assets to gain a return or you just love watches this is the episode for you.
Key Takeaways
How did you get into podcasts, Steven? I’d done the progressive property podcast training and thought I’d done a lot of public speaking anyway, so I’d enjoy it. It gives you validation to your brand. The trickle effect means I get to meet people, and it hopefully helps my business. Kieran talks through his motivation from talking with his friends on WhatsApp to start his own podcast. Some of the best podcasts are those that are just conversations.
In the football world, did you feel the media sometimes misrepresented you, Kieran? Definitely sometimes, and it’s not always true but the public read it and think its true. Now, footballers have their own social media and can control it better. If you are on a podcast you can reach millions of people without editing.
We all have an interest in watches? You know if you have a Patec then there are certain things you know about that person. Kieran stated he had been collecting watches for seventeen years for the love of them. I buy them for the look rather than their function. I fell into selling watches to people and making people face smile. I love it. The moment someone has a watch that you recognise the conversation can start from there.
We are all making a statement of who we are. So we try and meet other people who are into the same things as we are and can have a conversation with others. Just from a watch, you learn so much about someone. You can have a free watch because it goes up in value. Buy it for x amount and sell it for more. You can make money on them if you buy at the right time and the right brand.
If you want to get into watches, what would you do? Kieran stated Rolexes are a solid investment. Rolex Daytona can really increase in their price over time. Paul Newmans, Paul Newman was worth 17 million, and it wasn’t even in good condition. You need to find someone credible, who can open up the watch and check its authenticity. Get a service receipt so you have clarification that it’s real. The value goes down without box and papers. You have to be passionate about it, so you can track the market.
My money came from football? I’m lucky enough to buy watches through football. Sometimes you have to graft, so then you can do what you want to do. My father and my mom throughout my life they have owned several businesses and I’ve seen that through my family. I’ve always been into business. Footballers don’t know what to do often when they retire and the PFA don’t really do anything to support you.
Once you start making a decent amount of money you stop thinking about the future. Kieran is not officially retired but if I got fit I could play in the Premier League. I have two young children and don’t want to go around the world. Some footballers still want to play until they were 40. I got to retire on my own terms.
What’s your favourite modern car? Aventador, or F40, and F50. Aventador took Lamborghini to another level that looked more futuristic. Audi is helping in the building of it, so it is a tight car. We love both Ferrari and Lamborghini, especially vintage Ferrari. Some of these cars are built for the track
Why do you think higher-end cars have gone up in value, and then dropped more recently? No one really knows cars have definitely dropped. Things go up and down all the time. Great cars will always come back around.
If you wanted to buy a car? Limited production, and getting the right brand. Some Mercedes lose value straight off the lot. Definitely, start with buying the right brands( A car that they don’t make any more for example). Also look for cars that have got a full service-history. Paying someone who has the experience to check over the car is essential.
What about art, what things to do you look for? You have to be an expert in a specific strategy in the market. As far as investment is concerned to ask three questions: is the artist backed by a museum, gallery/agency and an art dealer? If it’s yes to all three, then you’re probably on for a winner. We deal in contemporary street art. These paintings are going for hundreds of a million.
How do you get into painting? You have originals, which is about quality. The shadow head would be around 40-50K. From canvas to paper goes down in value. The limited editions, copies are going for 100’s of thousands. It’s all about supply and demand, 100 is not a lot of copies from one artist. Some people buy the copies and have the real one in storage.
What is your motivation for buying art? That’s the most important question when I speak to my clients. There is a different purchase if it’s a pure investment, or if it’s a decoration or if it fits into their portfolio. If you don’t have the courage to spend tens of thousands a good limited edition is a solid place to start. Some people like to go big, it depends on your appetite for risk.
Best Moments
‘Some of the best podcasts are just two people having a conversation.’
‘Podcasts allow you to reach millions of people without editing.’
‘The first thing I look at when I meet someone is their watch.’
‘Watches are like art, it’s all about the education.’
‘Your buying into something more than tells the time, the heritage, history and intimate.’
‘A watch is a statement of who you are.’
‘I don’t want to lose my money.’
‘I like to use them, get into them and drive them and wear my watches.’
‘Especially with vintage, people like the history.’
‘There is more doubt if you are buying a watch without box and papers can be seen as not credible.’
‘Rolex and all these brands put up their price every year.’
‘The best investment is the one that you are really into.’
‘You got to enjoy what you do.’
‘Not everyone has that guidance to buy this and invest in this.’
‘The best time to plan for future is when it’s going well.’
‘Treat your contract like it was your last contract.’
‘You have got to get yourself educated.’
‘It’s almost about the correct numbers and brands.’
‘History repeats themselves.’
‘The big growth with artists after their death is after five years.’
‘Build up slowly, let it grow.’
‘Depends on your appetite for risk.’
‘There is no correlation between different investment assets.’
‘If you can be disciplined, and hold.’

Music can go beyond its words and melodies. You can get creative and be valuable to everyone else at the same time.
Today on the Steven Sully Study Podcast, hear Jevon, a budding rap artist, talk about his career journey, his craft, and the music industry. He also shares some nuggets of wisdom for those who want to get creative, whether it in music, film, drama, etc., and make money out of it. Jevon emphasizes that it’s important that you continue learning and improving yourself as an artist, and most importantly, as an individual. Discover also how you can be true to the music that you make, be an inspiration to everyone, and help others once you enter the music industry.
KEY TAKEAWAYS There should be more resources available for the youth that could start their creative journey. Jevon does not think that there is enough. Jevon is lucky to have been surrounded by musically-inclined people. He had a hippie aunt, an uncle who owns a synth keyboard he remembered playing with, and another uncle who has a massive vinyl collection. Be open to different kinds of learning. You can enrol in a university and get a degree but know that does not guarantee you a bright future. Yes, it can definitely add to your credibility but it’s all about the character you build. Jevon makes his music his own. He does not mind if his music is unconventional for others. But that does not mean he fully dismisses what’s typical. He tries to learn from everything that he hears and observes. Being a creative, you have to learn how to manage your time, especially if you make money out of it. Also, you have to be conscious of your opinions and how to deliver them. A number of trophies and high record sales are more than satisfying to achieve. But Jevon advises that you enjoy the process of writing, producing, and sharing your music. As a father, Jevon values balance in how he guides his kids. He wants them to learn and experience everything. You can be a good model for them so they learn how to strive and achieve their goals but you can never manoeuvre their lives for them. Where do he see himself in five years? He wants to be happy, be financially successful, and most of all, still be hungry for learning and improving himself as an individual.
BEST MOMENTS “There could be more resources for the youth now to get in the creative industry. I don’t think that there is.” “You don’t have to have good grades to be successful at all. It helps, it opens up doors for you but no. I know people who have a degree and struggling to get a job now. It’s really about your character as a person.” “It’s important that you have the right people around you that you can trust.” “You can’t give someone without having them to work for it because they’ll feel entitled.” “Know your worth, know your value because you can do a lot by yourself.” “You have to be honest in your music because that translates through the vibrations.”

THE MORE I WANT THE MORE I WILL ACHIEVE, THE VALUE OF A MISSION STATEMENT
In this episode, Steven shares his own mission statement and explains the importance of a mission statement in the achievement of your goals and becoming the very best version of yourself.
This episode is a great way to understand the significance of a good mission statement and the key elements you should include.
KEY TAKEAWAYS It's very difficult to become the very best version of you if you don’t have your goals and visions in check and have some excitement and passion. My mission statement is like an affirmation or incantation. It’s a business plan that you read out to yourself. Read it to yourself first thing in the morning to prepare your mind for the day and at the end of the day because this will mean that even if your day is challenging you will be able to get it into perspective. Life will throw challenges at you, some will be easy, and some will be major, your mission statement will help you to get through. My mission statement is written at the end of the year ready for the next year. You can take ownership by using ‘my’ this will help your subconscious mind feel it, see it and then it will manifest into your life. Your subconscious mind won’t believe in what you are saying unless you say it with conviction, energy, enthusiasm and excitement. The main person you need to sell to is yourself. If you were pitching a product to someone else in a weak way you would not be successful in achieving the sale. Review your mission statement during the year to see if you are becoming the person you want to be. By saying your mission statement frequently, you are conditioning your mindset every day and you will attract the best people into your life. You must also go out there and work your plan as well.
BEST MOMENTS
‘Life for me is bigger than that’
‘This is like a shot of espresso to pick you back up, do it relentlessly’
‘You will have a natural energy around you’
‘Even the things that some may regard as a failure are actually a win’
‘I hope it will give you some direction to help you in your life’
‘This will attract the very best people into my life which huge opportunities will undoubtedly manifest from, like attracts like’
‘Vision boards and a mission statement keep you accountable’
‘A mission statement is about characteristics’

In this interview, Steven is in discussion with Schoony, who exploded onto the Art scene with his iconic sculpture ‘Boy Soldier. His hyperrealist sculptures question war, mortality and contemporary society.
Listen in to hear about his fascinating journey and the experiences that have shaped his life and work
KEY TAKEAWAYS Where did the name Schoony come from?
My name is really Tristan Schoonraad but it was shortened to Schoony at school and it stuck, as far as I know, there’s nothing else called Schoony apart from a malt shop in America.
What’s your background?
I didn’t do very at school and left as soon as I could. I went straight into a job working on films as a plaster. My Dad was a plasterer and worked on the sets for films and I worked alongside him.
As I started work my dad began work on the creatures for the Jim Henson film ‘Dark Crystal’ and I was then able to develop my skills in making props.
When did you transition from making props to art?
I was working with the best sculptors in the world and there was the opportunity to have some items in an exhibition at New Tate Britain and they all sold.
Where do the colourways you use come from?
I use architecture as an inspiration for the varying colour combinations and effects I use. My sculptures and artworks are available in varying specialist colourways.
How important is it to have focus and goals?
It’s important to be able to be a child and have the opportunity to be creative. The education system is currently designed against creativity. As children begin school creativity is actively discouraged and its never a focus for their learning.
What are your goals?
I tend to go with the flow but I do visualise having a beautiful house so this is a current goal and in my work, I would like to achieve a sculpture on the fourth plinth in Trafalgar Square.
A vision board can be used at home and at work. Goals can be spread over 7 different areas and this will cover all areas of your life. Goals are there to keep you focused and driven but as soon as you reach one you set the next so its and an ever-evolving journey in pursuit of your goals.
What have been your best moments?
Working on films especially Rambo in Thailand as Sylvester Stallone was amazing to work with. Having a gallery show with my works up on the wall was an amazing experience. All the things I have done have shaped me in reaching the point I am at now.
BEST MOMENTS
‘I started making props for films such as ‘Space Precinct’ and ‘Private Ryan’
‘It’s so important, no matter how successful you become, to keep humble and be nice with good energy as it attracts good people’
‘I couldn’t believe it, someone likes what I’m doing’
‘Not all galleries may have the right investors, collectors for you’
‘You’re never going to do anything because you’re a dreamer’
‘They’ve really shaped their sector’
‘I knew I was going to do that’

I played above my age because my best friend was older, and his Dad coached the team. I was part of the West Ham youth program and then was scouted. As a result, I left home at 14 to move to Manchester United to train and play for them.
Changing schools was very positive, as the school in Manchester really believed in me and I achieved 10 GCSEs having only been predicted 3 by my previous London school.
I made my debut for Manchester United in a pre-season friendly and went on to win the FA youth cup and the premier league with them. How did you deal with greatness and how did you remain humble and grounded?
My parents played a massive part in my attitude and approach to be a successful footballer.
Growing up I watched them as they ran their business and it was this background of understanding about hard work and thinking ahead that I used as a professional footballer
Throughout my football career I was always thinking ahead and preparing for life after football. I bought a property each time I signed a new contract ensuring I had assets that would provide me with a passive income. How did you make the transition from footballer to businessman?
The transition from football was easier for me because I already had lots of other things going on. I collected watches throughout the time I played football, so I had already planted the seeds for a different career.
It's important to do something that you are passionate about and enjoy. To get the best out of yourself as a person its vital that you don’t do something you don’t want to do.
For some people it’s very clear what they are passionate about, for some people it's about looking around and trying things until you find your passion.
What makes me happy is helping people to build their collections and the smile on their faces when I have sold them a watch they really wanted. How important is fitness for you?
As footballers, we are programmed to do some sort of physical activity. I would recommend finding an activity that is about releasing energy as it will also relieve stress.
When I was at my most fit I completed both football training and had a personal trainer to get me to the next level. You have to do extra to stay at the top of your game and be the best as an athlete in your field.
BEST MOMENTS
‘Manchester was a great time for me’
‘Finally, after all that preparation to be on the pitch’
‘That’s when I realised I had a special talent’
‘Footballers aren’t educated enough’
‘If you don’t enjoy your work you'll never see the best of yourself’
‘My philosophy is - you’ve got to enjoy it’
‘I just focus on the next step in my life’
‘You get what you put in’
‘If you want to be the best, you’ve got to want it more’
‘Somethings are meant for you’
‘Be the best you can be, I always want to improve myself and being close to God makes me happy’

DARK CIRCLE DEEP DIVE
In this episode, Steven is in discussion with Aaron Dezonie of DARKCIRCLE. They talk in detail about culture, passion and the journey of cultural expression that is DARKCIRCLE.
Aaron talks about his art and the power of words to create different narratives for different people. To understand in depth how the creation of DARKCIRCLE combined cultural expression with a vision, encapsulated in a successful business listen in.
KEY TAKEAWAYS Who are You?
Aaron Dezonie, Creative Director of DARKCIRCLE Clothing.
We started out of my bedroom in 2007. It was a way to express myself and have fun. The Culture
The name DARKCIRCLE originally comes from my group of friends at that time, that’s what we called ourselves.
Not many others wanted to listen to the music we wanted to listen to or go to the places we wanted to go to. We created an environment for ourselves where we could listen to our music and be creative, that included stuff like sketching, writing raps and most importantly, for me, product design. The Journey
I was part of a DJ crew who worked across the US and Europe, this fulfilled me being part of the culture, but I still wanted to find a way to express myself.
Art has always been my passion, but I didn’t feel there was a market or platform for the type of art I wanted to create.
I initially started creating graphic images on T-Shirts, by hand, for myself and my friends as an outlet for my artistic expression.
Then it clicked and I realised this was my canvas because the type of art I’m interested in is bold typography in a contemporary, minimalist context.
People started asking us to make T-shirts for them and that’s how DARKCIRCLE came into being. The Business of Fashion
The original DARKCIRCLE members moved onto other things and I was the only person who was still doing what we had originally started.
I never considered making a business out of it until I met other like-minded people who helped me understand what it was I wanted and what I wanted to achieve. They showed me that I could make money out of it and that people would be interested in my vision. Overcoming Adversity
We rented expensive offices and spent money on stock that we never received. I went from the high of people giving me money to wear my art, to the low of having no money and losing everything.
I walked away from it, but while I was doing other things I was always thinking about how I could get back into it.
I had an opportunity to get involved with Candy Store and this led to my association with Trapstar. Seeing their team in action made me realise they were running a business and that I had to do the same for DARKCIRCLE Mentors
The unofficial mentorship from Mikey at Trapstar was a game changer. He helped me to understand that you have to sort out and understand your business to move forward towards your vision. At the time I didn’t realise how important a mentor is but on reflection, it was a key component for me in the business. The Power of the Word
Words to me are my pictures – the concept of DARKCIRCLE is the words, fundamentally it is a play on words.
I love the power of words – I wanted to see if one word could paint a thousand words. I never give my words context because I want my customer to bring their own context and story. The Matter of Education
Being at school never felt important, what I learnt from school were the playground politics – learning how to communicate with people, understanding why someone likes or doesn’t like you.
My education didn’t come out of the education system, I fell in love with learning when I found something I wanted to learn about. Collaborating
Collaborations have pushed our boundaries and are an important element of our evolution.
The Richard Hambleton collaboration was an opportunity to work with someone I really looked up to. It gave DARKCIRCLE credibility and opened new doors for us.
The collaboration with the artist Schoony was about us working together in the same space at the same level. Both collaborations provided validation through the publications we were featured in. A Bigger Collective
Other people have skills that are different to mine but are key to ensuring the business moves forward, they can contribute towards a collectively shared vision.
People might not have their own vision, but they want to be a part of yours and they can contribute more than you, the founder, can in some areas.
The vision for DARKCIRCLE is now as part of a bigger collective where other people are part of that journey this includes our customers. I want to engage with my customers better so I can understand about their Dark experience.
BEST MOMENTS
‘I don’t consider DARKCIRCLE a fashion brand it’s a cultural expression, It’s an expression of our interpretation of what's happening’
‘Just had a different outlook to our peers at that time’
‘How do we put our stamp and flag on that, the way that we do it, At that time it felt unique and different’
‘It can mean a million things but it's important that people make their own story’
‘Just trying to make a cool product that people can enjoy’
‘The people who inspire me are those who were put aside because they weren't academic enough’
‘If you want something and you are willing to put time into it there's nothing you can’t do’
‘It says DARKCIRCLE - there is no end to this, my happiness is in that darkness’

ABOUT THE GUEST
Aaron Dezonie
Aaron Dezonie is the founder and Creative Director of DARKCIRCLE Clothing, a UK based streetwear brand Started in 2008.
Aaron started his journey into the business of street fashion in 2005 starting out running events at a local nightclub based in his home town. With the success of these events, Aaron started making merch for himself and his team which lead to a demand from event attendees to get their own. As an avid art enthusiast, when making clothing he found a platform to be creative and produce art in his own style. This led to a practice of merging the lines between art and street fashion. In 2016 that line between art and fashion became even thinner when DARKCIRCLE collaborated with Soho based Art distributors WOODBURY HOUSE and legendary US painter and street artist Richard Hambleton.
In 2017, due to the success of the DARKCIRCLE X Hambleton collaboration, Aaron was appointed the creative director of one of London’s largest private Art collections and creative director of the Richard Hambleton Archive, license and copyright holders of Richard Hamilton.
During this role, Aaron had the opportunity to work with some of the most established galleries in the US, UAE and Europe.

Following a sparring session, Steven Sulley interviews Ruben Tabares, strength and conditioning coach, nutritionist and sports therapist. Currently one of the world’s most in-demand trainers, Ruben shares fascinating insights into the journey he takes with the individuals he works with. This podcast was created at the David Haye Gym and the very special atmosphere is captured as part of this engaging podcast.
KEY TAKEAWAYS • The jumping and plyometric work involved in ballet was a positive basis for my success in sports. An extended and unexpected illness that manifested itself as flu-like symptoms due to viruses attacking and destroying my immune system propelled me onto a path that led to me becoming a nutritionist, a sports therapist and a strengthening and conditioning coach studying biomechanics. I am always interested in anything that is alternative and will extend my knowledge base.
• I’ve taken different bits of information from lots of different sources and I piece it together, try it on myself and if it works I’ll then try it with my clients.
• I seek to give my clients a platform of complete health so that they are to springboard to do whatever they want.
• Water If you want to have more energy - drink more water. When you're born you are 90% water by the time you are an adult it is 70% and when you die you are made up of 50% water. You are fighting dehydration from the minute you are born. So, it makes sense to think about what you drink because it’s what makes up the most of you.
• Nutrition Nutrition is highly important, and every food has a certain energy We each have a different frequency and wavelength, when we are healthy it’s like a fingerprint. Everyone and everything has a wavelength and frequency.
When you measure the frequency of food wavelengths the higher the nutrient value or the density of the food the more the frequency will nourish you. A virus coming in will distort your wavelength frequency.
If you are in love, your wavelength frequency is small but if you are depressed or unhappy the wavelength frequency you give off is larger, fast foods also have the same large frequency. Like attracts like which is why when you feel unhappy you are attracted to junk foods.
• Taking Things Out The more toxins you can cut out from your system the better. When you’re talking about high levels of performance it’s the little things you’re taking out of the equation and what you are bringing in that create a breeding ground for amazing athletic performance whether you are an athlete, a business person or mum. You will find amazing levels of energy you didn’t think possible because you’re not bringing in toxins and have taken things that cause inflammation in the body such as wheat and dairy away.
• Training Strength training is good for athletes across all areas and it is particularly important for longevity. When training it’s important to do something that takes you out of your usual routine if you are exercising and not thinking about your work you are getting respite from it.
BEST MOMENTS ‘When I learnt about nutrition I had more questions than answers’
‘David Haye is probably my most famous client and I’ve worked with him for 10 years’
‘I am able to do what I do because of what happened to me, wouldn’t change it as it’s given me a foundation of knowledge’
‘Nothing is a substitute for food, superfoods are a nutritional tool’
‘I can give them 20 years of knowledge and experience that they can benefit from’
‘The best investment you can make is in yourself’
‘The more toxins you can cut out from your system the better’
‘People should look into strength and conditioning coaches to look after them’
‘I like solving problems’

This is a fascinating interview with Tom Webb Artist, Magician and ‘great dancer’. Tom shares with Steven his journey to date and the influences for his current work. Tom’s combination of coding and real-time data creates thought-provoking work that is connected to the present. Steven and Tom reflect on individual installations, the impact these pieces have and the often-shocking statistics that inspired them.
KEY TAKEAWAYS Beginning
An interest in magic combined with a passion for technology was the starting point that led to an opportunity to take part in ‘America’s Got Talent’.
The TED Talks
Berlin was a platform to explain the tricks that were used in the ‘America’s Got Talent audition this was seen as an important opportunity, by Tom, to explain how the technology worked and dispel the fear people often have of it. Romania provided an opportunity to share the combination of coding and art coming together. In this talk, Tom was able to articulate how coding and art can be combined to create thought-provoking pieces that are connected to the present.
The combination of technology and a desire to create work that communicates and is connected to ‘real-time’ form the basis for the current work.
Coding and Communicating
The art is created through the use of programming connected to the present and communicated visually.
The pieces created both communicate and reflect contemporary life in real time.
An installation or work is not static, it tells a story that can change over time. The vision is to create work that is about the world today but will change
as time goes on.
And Next….
Within the next ten years, the vision is to have pieces in public places and museums across the world.
BEST MOMENTS
‘What is the narrative of this thing’
‘You learn by doing’
‘If I can program art, I can communicate things’
‘My Art – it’s about communicating and reflecting contemporary life in real time’
‘My work is definitely about trying to tell stories, but about telling stories in a way that I don’t just have to create a static piece of art it’s something that can change over time’
‘I’d love it if people bought my art, I only make one of one ‘

In today’s episode of The Steven Sulley Study discover why the fear of loss and the desire to gain are two of the most important factors when it comes to selling your product or service and closing a deal. Understand the reasons why people end up buying products and the key reasons why entrepreneurs focus on appealing to their customers fear of loss.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
The reasons most people end up purchasing products.
Number one reason why people are purchasing the products is the fear of loss. The fear of loss is the main thing that causes people to do or use when it comes down to a parting with money. When you have a chunk amount of money in your bank account and you’re fearing for your money not to be lost in cases of a bank collapse, then you may decide to purchase a product that may be worth a lot of money and a product that may never depreciate in value. This can be to some extent art. Art is fast becoming a very good appreciating asset. People now are taking their money out of banking institutions and they're putting into areas which are known as safe havens or somewhere to protect their money.
The second reason why people buy products is the desire to gain. Many people also buy products to keep them, and mostly they will buy products which do not depreciate with time but appreciate in value with time. The aim is to sell that product at a higher price than when they purchased it. This is a kind investment as an alternative to keeping your money in the bank which is not bringing you any profit.
What you need to do as an entrepreneur or a businessman for you to make huge sales in your business is only hit home on a couple of key points when selling to customers, the next step is simple, appealing to their fear of loss or their desire to gain.
BEST MOMENTS
“People now are taking their money out and they're putting into areas which are known as safe havens or somewhere to protect their money.”
“Appeal to the fear of loss or the desire to gain of customers for you to make sales.” “Be happy never content.”

In this fascinating episode Steven Sulley meets with Shahbaz Choudhry renowned fast bowler and the entrepreneur who is the force behind the ‘pace journal’
He has brought his expertise and mindset as a sportsman to his business ventures and in the pace journal has realized a project that combines cricket with his entrepreneurial skills. In this interview Shahbaz discusses his drive to be the fastest bowler in the world and the mindset synergy shared by successful sportsman and successful entrepreneurs.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
Are you naturally born with it?
As a fast bowler you can develop more speed and the key to this is the development of technique using biomechanics.
Technique
Biomechanics – creating optimum speed and optimum power is the result of a domino effect, through being able to transfer energy along the kinetic chain effectively.
There are some people who naturally possess this technique, but it can always be developed further.
Increased speed can be attained through developing technique.
Genetics
Some individuals may be genetically faster, but they can also develop their technique further.
There are always genetic anomalies, those people who have completely flawed techniques but can bowl superfast. These anomalies can be seen across a range of different sports including boxing.
Nutrition
It’s not you are what you eat, it’s you are what you ate 6 months ago. Working with Ruben Tabares was about understanding that nutrition is a lifestyle approach linked to mindset. How you look is a reflection of your mental state.
Training
Generically – being strong - the stronger you are the more forces you can absorb and the more forces you can produce.
Specifically – breaking down where forces go through your body when bowling and training individual muscles
Training should cover different areas it is necessary to train for strength, flexibility, endurance, mobility and speed.
How did the Pace Journal begin?
Following an extended period developing his business interests, Shahbaz made a decision begin training again. During this training period he documented on a daily basis his return to fitness. Other athletes contacting him for advice provided the inspiration for the creation of a platform where people could access information from a range of different people.
The pace journal provides a platform where those interested in the niche that is fast bowling can gain an insight from differing fast bowlers as to how they did what they did.
How did you grow your social media following?
Actively working to understand the way that the audience likes to receive information increased the followers and increased engagement. Breaking information into ‘pace bites’ and the use of ‘did you know’ facts are successful elements that increased engagement and the size of the pace community.
A conscious decision to respond to people who comment has furthered the loyalty of the pace community and proved to be a very successful strategy. The positive way that individual followers feel when they receive a response makes it worth the time taken to respond.
What’s in the future?
The pace journal will seek to offer more content via masterclasses and a premium subscription. The model will be used to create niche platforms for other areas of cricket such as batting.
BEST MOMENTS
‘It isn’t luck there is a process to it’
‘Opened my eyes to the science of it, it’s not as straight forward as you think’
‘Obsessed with learning the process and realised other people were on that pursuit for knowledge’
‘Neuro muscle training – finding out exactly what gets hammered when youre bowling and working to strengthen those muscle areas’
‘My mindset changed and my body reflected it’
‘Adversity helps us to get stronger and find a new solution’

In this episode, Steven interviews Robert Lloyd-Taylor who has a background in boxing, they discuss the lessons that boxing teaches an individual and how it can be applied to life in general, be it in our personal lives or in business. Robbie also highlights that with boxing, you can gain respect or you will come to respect the person who is training or doing boxing in the gym and that boxing should be considered to be part of the school curriculum. Listen now to hear more about life in boxing!
Key Takeaways Differences in Levels of Fitness. Robbie mentions that It is going for the process. If you are a British level, you have to work for it. For when you first started gym, that's when it all begins. You start progressing through the rounds for the quality opponents, the quality of sparring, and you built into that. So, dedicate yourself to it. Work towards it. That's how you get there. The difference in Mindset. There isn't really a difference, but there is. Robbies says that it's not a lot of difference. But you do see that difference in mindset. Boxing as part of the school's curriculum. The coaches still need to instil discipline in the children, but if you get that balance, it's definitely inaudible to bring boxing back into schools. How has boxing helped? Mindset-wise. Robbie thinks that he is who he is. Always have been. Aside from being re-energetic, it helped Robbie channel his energy a lot better. While then being around in the street just fighting around then whatever, he was always in the gym, just focusing on what he was doing. He always had the goal in mind which is always working towards keeping him straight in that road, keeping him healthy. Somewhat disciplined definitely. Hereditary or Acquired. It is definitely something that you're born with. It is definitely something you can work with as well. Most of the guys that you see, you don't see the work that they put in like they have a little something that they're born with but behind closed doors, they work their ass off. Insight to the Daily Routine. Not one is the same. When Robbie first started, he was doing just the traditional training which is now being shown no good. When he was a professional, he was running 7, 8, 9, sometimes 10 miles on the hills, like 3, 4 times a week. Loads of circuit training. When he fought like for a high combination, he was spent, literally done, nothing left in the tank. So, he is training harder. He’s done more of what he was doing. And the harder he trains, the less fit he was on fight night which he just couldn't make sense of. The people around me couldn't make sense of him… The Part That Nutrition Play. Nutrition is a massive part of it. On the first part of his career, his diet was awful. He could eat whatever he wanted. It's likely just shoving yourself with loads of calories but not realizing what he was doing for myself. It was in the late part of his career that he started eating a lot better. Reuben, Adam Bove, and James Sawyer really helped him in the nutritious side of things and see certain doctors, taking blood and stuff. That really helped him turn his health and fitness around. Career. Definitely, being able to communicate through training camp and in the fight is very very important. That is just something that Robbie tries to earn as well. Taking a moment. Sometimes you got to be up from almost an opportunity and it's up to you whether you pick it up and take that opportunity or not. Some people rise to the challenge in the most unexpected times. And other people kind of melt. And you're the epitome in that moment of rising. Start now and get perfect later. By Rob Moore. Meaning, just crack on with it. Whether you are doing business, maybe you get really fit, start a family cause it's never gonna be a perfect time... Go off your goals, go off your ambitions, and really devote yourself to something. There is never a perfect time than now.
Best Moments “I feel if people not forced into boxing but it was a little bit of culture inside schools, it would get out that aggression, and it would be that respect.”
“It's not gonna happen just like that. Again, it's gonna happen over time. As long as you notice it and work towards it. It does improve, definitely.”
“I've got a handful of goji berries with me. All the superfoods you can imagine. Regularly taken and rubbed in and refined sugar, and I've got to say, sustainably, my energy is there throughout the day.”
“You need to have a routine of a champion basically to sustain longevity in the craft that you are trying to master. Nutrition is for me, regardless of whether in boxing or not, is key. If you want to live a healthy life, if you wanna get to... my goal is to get over to a hundred years of age, that's gonna be training. That's gonna be the right rest and also the nutrition as well. I've got a lot of things to work on.”
“It is like a mini sales pitch, and you transfer that enthusiasm and that belief that can come out and that next round or the second half of the fight, and lets you turn it over round.”
“People like my mind always believe, like the law of attraction, I always believe I was gonna get in. I was gonna win.”
“I wanna give back because it gives me so much confidence, boxing.”
“Lead by example.”
“Be happy with what you're doing. Be appreciative of what you have.”

Steven Sulley passionately talks about time in relation to motivation towards your goals.
He explains how a lack of time should push us all to act now.
“Father time doesn’t wait you’ve only got one chance at it, you’ve got to utilise it to get the most out of it, so you get a yield and all the profits later on.”
KEY TAKE AWAYS The biggest Motivation to Get up and Get on with it, is Time
Believe in setting goals and think carefully about timing.
If you’re thinking about a New year’s resolution start it today that’s what winners do
A lot of successful self-made people have an attitude of ‘I will do whatever it takes to reach my goals’, that doesn’t mean they put it off to the new year, they act now.
Don’t get stuck on the Some Day Isle
Lot s of people are on ‘someday isle’ a place referred to by Brian Tracy in his book Secrets of Self-Made Millionaires. On this isle, the people will some day start a business, some day start making money. The clear message is don’t wait start now.
Living For 100 Years
If you set yourself a goal of living to 100 years old, and calculate the 30 years you’ll be sleeping, the first 10 years you will spend developing, along with other things you are only left with an average of 50 years. That’s only 50 years to be productive and do something That something could be starting a business or getting on that journey to reach your goals.
Utilise Your time in the most effective Way
If you look at any successful people, they utilise their time in the most effective ways. You can learn to combine elements to get more from your time. An effective person has compounded their efforts and utilised their time effectively.
.
BEST MOMENTS
“Usually there are opportunities if you have enough money, there is a way of purchasing something back, but not time once it wasted its gone”
“Time is not going to wait for you.”
“When I’m lacking motivation, I just start thinking about time there’s all that time you can’t get back.”
“Nobody can tell you that you can’t achieve something”

From here, I established a foot hold in the sales market promoting financial products as well as being a founder of an art agency that has a Soho based art studio. In addition, I have invested into an urban fashion brand and into a wellness tech company, and my latest addition to the business portfolio is a property company that which creates HMO's in Medway, Kent. The diverse range of industries I find myself in has allowed me to create wealth that enables me to be my own boss so I can pursue my dreams.

Welcome back to another episode of the Steven Sulley Study with your host Steven Sulley. In this episode, Steven interviews photographer and artist Haris Nukem. Harris talks through his process as an artist, and how his creative practice has developed in his collection of photos. The conversation takes them from Haris’ journey from being born in Bosnia and growing up in the UK, to making money and great art.
Key Takeaways
Who Are You, What Is Your Journey So Far? I take photographs. My work has changed recently to be more directional, more produced. My previous work has been a slightly different creative process. Throughout my life, I’ve always created stuff whether that be drawings or songs, but photography is what really clicked for me. I was born in Bosnia and came to the UK as a kid with my mom. My moms work ethic really has set the bar high for me, as she was learning English, training to be a doctor in English all at the same time.
I Started A Fashion Company With My Friend Mylo. His dad gave us a grand so we could make some clothes. As part of the company, we needed some photos of the clothes. As soon as the shutter clicked on my first photo I knew it was for me. I’d worked for an advertising agency previously so knew how to use photoshop so that’s where photography began for me.
Surpassing Adversity As An Artist. If you have experienced adversity you are going to need higher highs to compensate for that. It’s about how you focus that high. The same people who become amazing businessmen, are the same kind of people who are addicted to heroin. I am lucky that I found my thing in photography.
What’s Your Creative Process When Taking A Photo? I had spent some time in management so had some experience in managing people. For the main body of my work, I have been interested in that tribal element of all humans. If you lock eyes with someone you don’t know on the tube and you look away first there is always a sense of shame. I’m trying to examine the tribal thing in everyone, that unites us no matter who we are. I like to focus on the model performing rather than posing. This takes time to get the emotion through in the shoot.
What’s The Story Behind Nukem? It came from the Duke Nukem video game which I played as a kid. When my dad came back from Bosnia, we began playing this game together and we loved it. We bonded over the game. Then it became my Myspace name at the time, and the name has stuck since then.
How Important Is The Backstory In Your Work? I think it’s the most important thing. My recent photos are all completely allegorical. Everything is there for a reason. The objects or people in the photo and how they are positioned, it all has meaning. I’m really influenced by the renaissance artists like Caravaggio, which has inspired my pallet, and the tonal composition of my photos.
How Important Is Mental Health With Your Work? Everything for me is up and down. I go through long downswings and sizable upswings. I understand now that in my downswings I can take information in through reading or listening to podcasts. Then the ideas come in the transition through to the upswing. The activity and excitement come in the upswing. I can’t take in information at that point. I find depression specifically really useful and without it, I wouldn’t make anything. In the upswing, I will get everything down with no compromise.
What’s Your Take On Art Being Used as an Investment Vehicle? My favourite clients are not the millionaires. I love the people who save up over a long period of time because that art means a lot to them. I do the art for them. I really like my work to go up in value. Who wouldn’t want that? I want to produce bigger and crazier ideas and if it increases in value then that helps to facilitate that.
Where Do You See Yourself In The Next Five Years? I want to produce a show every year. My next show will be in Spring next year. I want to make that vision happen. I want to make great art and make money. The more money that you can make the more you can give away.
Best Moments ‘I’ve always created stuff.’ ‘Everyone has time’ ‘Photography was like KPC special recipe for me.’ ‘We all have our vices some are healthy others are not.’ ‘Regardless of who we are that tribal essence is a unifying factor ‘What we wear is a core form of nonverbal communication.’ ‘Everyday I age my empathy grows.’ ‘Need insecurity to then be able to not offend others.’ ‘I always fall back to rennaise art for inspiration for my photography.’ ‘Everything is there for a reason, even where it is placed in the photo.’ ‘Depression specifically is really useful and without it I wouldn’t make anything.’ ‘Photography changed my life.’ ‘The more money you can earn, the more money you can give away.’ ‘The work has to be unique.’

About The Guest
Harris Nukem is a believer of the human spirit. Using photography as his artistic medium, his work has become a passionate study of human fortitude in the modern world.
Constructing vivid scenarios, the London based artist depicts varying manifestations of will-power and the competing beauty between “righteous” and “wayward” journeys. Using symbolism to build visual narratives, we are left to unearth their moral conclusions ourselves.
In effect, his photographs challenge our moral views, inviting a respect for human conviction — be it in glory or superficial excess, to blind discipline and indoctrination. Forced to reframe our ideas of self-care, growth, and perseverance, Nukem’s works conjure a deeper thinking.
The result is a provocative body of work — characterised by it’s opulence in colour, with bright, burning and incandescent hues. Fusing lavishness with a socially conscious, urban art sensibility, his work embodies contemporary-classical imagery.

Welcome back to another episode of The Steven Sulley Study. Today Steven talks to you about property and explains specifically about the HMO sector and why you should get into the HMOs now to make guaranteed money. Hop in to learn about this and much more.
KEY TAKEAWAYS HMO. This stand for house multiple occupations, it's also referred to sometimes as multi lets. Why you should do or be in HMOs. Number one is if the wealthier do it if they're successful, I'll do it, therefore I should be doing it because all you got to do in life is copy what successful people are doing, make it 10% better and you can achieve the same results if not more or better. Number two is a great place to save your money. It can cushion you against turbulent times, I'm not saying you can't lose money from property, generally speaking, if you hold an asset long enough, it's going to go back up. Thirdly, these properties are quite a lot more cash flow. Number four is If you go to a commercial lender, they will lend you the money on the bricks and mortar, the actual property itself the asset but most importantly, the business inside that asset which is you've got tenancy agreements you've got a contract with all these tenants. There's cash flow coming in, so they actually give you a loan also above and beyond the property itself. HMO's are recession proof. This is every property going on the decline. There’s never a recession in HMOs because even if the economy goes on a recession, you can still hold on to that property because the recession will eventually come to an end and the price of the properties will go up. In HMOs, you start creating a culture and a community inside that property. If you've got five or six like-minded people that all been vetted and all very, very similar in regards to their outlook on life for their paradigms, these people kind of work together and they also socialize together which leads to the formation of some relationships.
BEST MOMENTS “If the wealthier do it, if they're successful, I’ll do it.” “Money is the root of all evil as well as all positivity.” “Money is a neutral kind of medium, it's not bad and it’s not good.”

KEY TAKEAWAYS
Selling is a way of life and a specific way of thinking that you can employ at work and at home. The power of influence and communication is key to survival and as humans, it’s an absolute must learn skill.
Four Reasons Why Your Sales May Have Dipped. Is the company you’re working for in line with your morals, your goals and what you want to achieve? Is the type of product you’re promoting in sync with your paradigms and your outlook on life? Your belief and tonality will reflect this if what you're selling is not a true core belief for you. Are you believing in yourself? And are you pitching in the right way? Remember that you need to staff true to yourself and always pitch with enthusiasm and excitement. Are your goals really true goals that get you excited and mean something to you? In order to be successful, you need to have a great attitude, be passionate and feel nervous. If your vision board gives you these feelings you’re working towards your goals.
BEST MOMENTS

“It’s not always the logical things that will convert the sale, it’s the emotional things”
“Learning sales is an art and is something you need to learn even in a passive manner if you are to be successful.”

KEY TAKEAWAYS Boxing helps to keep your emotions intact. You learn to deal with pain, punishment and adversity in any walk of life and you can remain composed, keep moving forward, working your plan, developing yourself and overcoming those challenges. Boxing relieves stress. Pressure from family and work can turn into a mode amount of stress or sometimes high level of stress and you need an outlet and one better way of getting an outlet is boxing. Taking up boxing is going to be a good medicine for you as it’s completely natural. Competition. Boxing gives you the will to compete. You start to develop that characteristic of being a competitor when you come second best and you don't win the fight. When you transfer that into other things like business sales investments or even doing other sports, you have that competitive edge. Defending yourself. Learning how to defend yourself gives you the element of feeling confident and empowered. Learning boxing skills is just like having a loaded gun with you, it does not mean you have to use it because it’s loaded but you feel you have protection with you. Fitness. Boxing gives you that body fitness which keeps you healthy and not forgetting that boxing also gives you that mental fitness in that it helps you get your mind out off things that may be clouding up in your mind unlike other games sports like running where you know that you are running and you may over think some things while running. Boxing is the best way to keep fitness.
BEST MOMENTS “Boxing is much the same as sales, if you can work, plan your work and work your plan it means, even in times of toughness and when things are going against you, if you can remain composed, very calm and keep your emotions completely in a calm state, then you can keep moving forward and win that fight.” “Competition breeds excellence. It’s very difficult to become excellent at anything in life unless you've got some sort of competition.” “In life, you have to expect the best but prepare for the worst.”

Do you really want to become a success? Do you really know what it is you want to achieve? When you get clear on your vision, your goals and have in your mind a certain thing that you want to accomplish, the law of attraction and the science behind it will make it a reality. But only if you’re an action taker and only if you have a plan.
In today’s episode of the Steven Sulley Study, Steven discusses the law of attraction and why you need to a plan to achieve certain goals and to work hard, stay composed and have a routine in order to attain them. Only when you do this will the law of attraction kick in and start to contribute to the successes in your life.
KEY TAKEAWAYS If you have a thought about a certain thing that you want to achieve, it will manifest into something real. So get yourself a vision board and a goals board and get excited.
The thing you want to achieve, the thing you want to become and the lifestyle you want to live. The law of attraction will manifest the stuff and the things that you want. But only if you take action, engage in excitement and drive forward. You need to believe in yourself and believe that the things you want to achieve are within your grasp. You need to put a positive energy out there to the universe and believe that the law of attraction will help you succeed. For the law of attraction to work you need to identify a clear strategy and take action. It is only then that the law of attraction will take place.
The law of attraction has a science behind it. The Reticular Activator Systems. This is the creative part of your mind and the part that makes you notice the things that are important to you. When this starts to take place you will visualise and see what you want. You’ll start to notice things more and realise that these coincidences happening around you are not simply coincidences. Your brain is engaging you to look for answers, ways, people or companies that can help you achieve your goal.
BEST MOMENTS
“Whatever you want to achieve becomes a greater success when you have to grind and work for what you want”
“The state of being excited but being slightly nervous is the perfect state to be in.”
“When you set a goal you need to commit and put yourself around the right people. These are factors that will allow you to attract the law of attraction and help it manifest into a reality.”

Today, Steven discusses how to use The C.R.E.S.T model when pitching over the phone, face-to-face or any sales environment. This model is fantastic when dealing with ‘inbound’ leads and will help you to help you to secure commitment from your customers and close the sale.
Learn how to get inspiration, motivation and education from this simple but effective model to success. If you follow this simple process you will provide great value, overcome objections and give a fantastic service to your customers.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
Always internally quality your lead by reading back to them the lead source in which they came from. Add credibility and take control by asking them to grab a pen and paper so that you can explain to them more about the product or service they’re interested in. This also helps to see if: They are the decision maker? If they have the funds to purchase? If they were really interested in the first place? If you’re able to take control of the sale or scenario?
C.redibilty - Talk about yourself and be honest about it to build a rapport and come across as credible. Use factual information and use it to your advantage to best serve the customer.
R.eturns - Explain clearly and effectively the return on investment for your customers.
E.xit - Offer the reassurance of a exit strategy and help the customer realise how and when they can take their money out if they needed to or the product or service wasn’t right.
S.afe - Describe what security measures are in place to give the customer a sense of security in the product or service that you’re pitching. This could be insurances or guarantees to ensure a sellout clause. You can also mention the track record of the product or service to put your customer's mind at ease.
T.ime - Explain when your customer will begin to see a return on their investment or when the product or service will mature.
BEST MOMENTS
“Always test your leads by seeing if you could go higher with their purchase/investment”
“Allow the pen to be your friend”
“People will invest in YOU if you demonstrate to them your credibility”
“The subconscious mind can hear the negatives”
“Be transparent and clear so that people will buy into you, your service and your product”
“Most people lose good size sales because they never talk about the big numbers”

Welcome back to another episode of The Steven Sulley Study. Today Steven explains why investing in watches is always a solid investment. If you’re looking to affiliate yourself with successful people, keep to a routine of champions and empower yourself to be a success, this episode is for you.
There are more benefits to watches than just telling the time. Ist’ a badge of honour, an extension of yourself and your personality and people will view you as a success because of it. Owning and investing in watches will create you endless opportunities and allow your business to flourish.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
Why Investing In Watches Is Important Watches tell the time - They fit the fundamental need of keeping to a routine and getting things done. Watches hold their prices and increase over time. Rolex, Philippe and AP typically grow in value over time Gratitude watches - There are days when life is a struggle a gratitude watch provides you with a little reminder that you are a success and you are empowered. Surround yourself with the right group of people and use your watch to create a common ground. This will give you instant rapport and instant recognition and opportunities will follow. Buy watches that are limited edition and limited production and you are guaranteed to have an appreciating asset. My Rolex Daytona Stainless Steel - I purchased this in 2005 for £5000 today it's worth in excess of £12,000. Watches go up in value exponentially. Buy cashflowing assets first such as property, HMO's or serviced accommodation units before treating yourself to a watch. Once you have a sustainable monthly income put that money into a luxury watch that will appreciate in value over time The law of attraction only works when you surround yourself with the right people and write down your goals and as a result, gravitate towards the goals that you want to achieve.
BEST MOMENTS
“When I first got into sales and started affiliating myself with successful people, I noticed they all seem to speak, invest and collect watches”
“When I started making money I gravitated toward investing in watches and part of my financial and materialistic goals are owning some luxury watches”
"You don't know what you don't know"
"I run a regimented day, starting with the routine of a champion"
“There is an instant synergy and an instant connection when discussing watches”
"Your Net-worth will be determined by your Net-work"

It's time to cut off those strings if you've been feeling like a puppet of someone else. To become the best version of yourself, you have to have control over your life.
In this episode of Steven Sulley Podcast, Steven shares his own experiences where he felt he has become someone else’s plan - from his early school days to getting his dream job. After encountering people pushing him over goals he didn’t really want for his life, he decided to stop wasting his time and start pursuing what he really wants. Listen in how it worked for Steven as he was able to make bigger money, gain knowledge, and do what he’s passionate about. There’s nothing better to learn life plans and strategies than from someone who has had major life hiccups and still continues to achieve growth.
KEY TAKEAWAYS There are many strong-minded people or someone respectable or someone in power that you'll encounter in your life and will put their perception in you. Don't always believe it as always true. Decide for yourself. If you listen to them, you lose control over your own life. Steven didn't enjoy schooling. He was frustrated with it because he thought he wasn't good at the major subjects. He started doubting himself because he also thought so much of what his teachers have perceived him. Steven’s dream job was to be a Marine but his parents forced him not to pursue it. So, he chose not to and interned for the golf business of his parents. He dreaded it but he completed it because he didn’t like quitting. Your passion, excitement and drive to get something trumps whatever your past, your degree, or your background is. You can practice along the way if you think you don’t have the technical background. He asked his friends for help and did everything to get a job he wanted. He was able to land in an industry where he believes he belongs. He was fond of the upbeat environment because he easily learned his way to his job responsibilities. Steven: “The very, very core of anything that you do in life is sales.” It is all about effective communication which you can apply to all our relationships – from business to personal.
BEST MOMENTS "I just knew that I was an upbeat person. I feel that I could achieve certain things if I put my mind to it but I really didn't know what I was doing." "The mindset I like to have is to build upon something an empire and build up a huge amount of wealth over time. As well as, a network of people, really good relationships and becoming the best version of you.” “One thing I’m good at is if I commit on something, even if I really don’t like it, I will always complete it.” “You can say you want all these stuff but unless you take action on it, you’re gonna fall in the same pattern.”

In today’s episode, Steven discusses Optimism Vs Pessimism and how you too, can become the best version of yourself you can be.Many people say it's obviously to be more positive than negative, however, some of us all fall into viewing things negatively and it’s hard to be an upbeat and positive person.
Whether you're looking to progress in your career, invest in property or start your own business, it's hard when you're negative and pessimistic in your mind, body and soul. And in today’s episode, Steven shares with you the mindset and attitude you need to have to begin viewing things with a positive attitude.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
There are three ways you can look at a scenario in life: View it worse than it is - If you have this kind of mindset it will make your situation 10x worse. Viewing it in this way doesn't give you any empowerment and puts you in a state of fear and anxiety. View it as it is - Be content with the situation and move on. View it better than it is - Everybody is human and everybody miscalculates situations.
In life you will go through tough times, you'll make mistakes, climates will change, financial markets will change, goverment policies will change, taxes will change, your health could go up or down. There will be a whole host of things that happen to you that are completely out of your control.
View your scenario slightly better and take control, don't let it take control of you! Chanel your aggression and your fearfulness into the right things in life and speed up your recovery time by having the right attitude and being your best self.
BEST MOMENTS
"In life, you either step up or step out"
"You either bounce or you break"
“Your gut tells you that you have a chance if you have the right attitude”
“Weather the storm, embrace it and becover the very best version of yourself that you can be”
“You learn more through the challenges in your life than you do when you're in your glory days”
“Refine your business model, get educated and become sharper and as a result, you will become wiser and stronger”

In today’s episode, your host Steven Sulley discusses the difference between productivity and just being active. Are you busy or do you just look busy? A lot of people fall into the category of ‘looking busy’ and do not actually achieve very much, in their business and in life. This is one of the biggest causes of frustration, anxiety and depression and today, Steven shows you how to break the mould, do what you love and get things done, with absolute productivity.
KEY TAKEAWAYS Ask yourself, what are you achieving? Don’t work really hard, but at the wrong thing. Utalise your time in the right way and become effective with what you’re doing. No matter what’s going on the main thing you need to focus on is your career, the thing that’s going to get you paid.
Are you working on something that’s going to make you grow, make you thrive and make you financially free? Are you getting yourself educated and getting yourself empowered? If not you need to re-align your vision and values and stop what you’re doing.
A lot of people are constantly analysing and thinking rather than doing. Use your downtime, either before or after work to research and critic. When you’re at work, just work.
BEST MOMENTS
“Is the thing you're doing right now really moving you forward? Or are you just looking busy? Life is not a rehearsal, you get one shot at it. So make sure you’re utalising your time properly.”
Floyd Mayweather Junior - “His philosophy is hard work and dedication. The hard work on your craft and the right strategy for you to achieve success.”
“Many boxers may be pretty good at what they do, but over-time they get caught up in things irrelevant to them”
“When you’re resting properly rest, but when you’re working properly work”

“Leaders are readers and big earners are always learners”
“As your self-worth improves your net-worth will increase”
“Honestly is the best policy”
