Episode Synopsis "Defining your own success"

In this episode I have a conversation with a friend and former colleague Vicky Steenkamp – who runs a business called Mindset and Soul, helping you to connect your body, mind and soul to live your best life. More information is on www.mindsetandsoul.co.uk/ This conversation with Vicky is about how we define success. In our sometimes meandering conversation we talk about when success is made up of small wins, meeting our deep values, that sometimes the journey itself is what it is and how we need to set aside our judgements of what constitutes success or for that matter what is good. The conversation did not take us to the world of Key Performance Indicators, or making tonnes of revenues or complying with metrics imposed on us by the outside world, but it did take us into the world of meeting our deeper internal values. We talk about labels and the Bhagavad Gita – and I shall return to the lessons from the Gita – well some of them – that we can use as Midlife Enterprisers to help understand the conflicting goals, duties and labels we sometimes have to deal with. I really enjoy my conversations with Vicky – but I enjoy them even more when I listen again to the podcast – because she is so thoughtful and engaging, where even her silence speaks a 1,000 words. I hope you enjoy the chat as much as I did.
