Drawing on her work with high-performing leaders, entrepreneurs, and executives, Liz shares why so many capable people feel held back—not by a lack of skill or ambition, but by the stories they carry about who they are allowed to be.

| 6/23/26 | ![]() Bitesize: 10 Leadership Truths They Don't Teach in Business School #224 | In this episode, Paul sits down with leadership author and culture-change advocate Kyle McDowell to unpack a hard truth: many “successful” corporate environments are quietly toxic—and leaders often help create the very dysfunction they later complain about. Kyle shares how, after decades in senior Fortune-level roles leading tens of thousands of people, he hit a point of apathy, burnout, and personal cost that forced a reckoning. The turning point wasn’t a new strategy—it was a new way of leading: human connection, real accountability, and the courage to stop rewarding fear-based results-at-all-costs leadership. About the Guest Kyle McDowell is a leadership speaker, consultant, and author of Begin With We, best known for his “10 We’s”—a set of behavioral principles designed to build cultures of accountability, trust, and excellence. https://kylemcdowellinc.com/ About the Host Paul Ryan is a CEO, 8-figure business owner, mentor, and podcaster. https://pauljryan.net/ Work With Paul You can book a discovery call with Paul here: 👉 https://calendly.com/inner-entreprene... | 20m 14s | ||||||
| 6/20/26 | ![]() I Won A Mercedes. Then I Realised I Didn't Want It (Inner Mentor 20) #223 | About the Host Paul Ryan is a CEO, 8-figure business owner, mentor, and host of The Inner Entrepreneur Podcast. 👉 https://pauljryan.net/ Work With Paul You can book a discovery call with Paul here: https://www.pauljryan In this episode of The Inner Mentor Series, Paul shares the remarkable story of how, as a young man in his twenties, he won his dream car—a brand-new red Mercedes. For months he had visualised owning the car. He had a photograph of it pinned to the wall of his tiny office and spent countless hours imagining what it would feel like to drive it. Then, against all odds, he won one. But what happened next surprised him. Within days, Paul realised that the Mercedes wasn't what he really wanted. What he wanted was something much deeper: to become the kind of person who could afford a Mercedes, rather than simply own one by chance. This episode explores the difference between having and becoming, the power of intention, visualisation, identity, and why the future you create is often shaped by the person you choose to become. Whether you're building a business, pursuing financial freedom, improving your health, or strengthening your relationships, this conversation offers a simple practice that can help bring greater clarity and focus to the direction of your life. In This Episode The surprising story of winning a brand-new Mercedes in his twenties Why owning the car wasn't what Paul really wanted The difference between having something and becoming the person capable of creating it Why visualisation works differently than most people think The role intention plays in shaping your future The daily practice Paul has used for years to stay aligned with what matters most How to create greater clarity around your goals, aspirations, and future direction A simple exercise you can begin today Key Takeaways Success is often more about identity than achievement. The things we chase are frequently symbols of something deeper. Visualisation is most powerful when combined with action and personal growth. The goal is not simply to have more, but to become more. Clarity and intention can dramatically influence the direction of your life. | 12m 11s | ||||||
| 6/18/26 | ![]() Cancer Survivor: The Warning Signs Most People Ignore | Bron Watson# 222 | In this episode of The Inner Entrepreneur, Paul chats with Bron Watson about resilience, healing, adversity, and the life-changing lessons that emerged from two cancer diagnoses. A nurse educator, entrepreneur, and founder of The Serenity Project, Bron shares how a successful business, built through hard work and relentless effort, ultimately led her to question the cost of achievement when it comes at the expense of health and wellbeing. Together, Paul and Bron explore the difference between resilience and relentlessness, the importance of rest, the power of intuition, and how to find peace in the midst of uncertainty. They discuss why healing is about more than medicine, how to navigate fear without being consumed by it, and what it means to become the CEO of your own health and life. This is a powerful conversation about courage, acceptance, personal responsibility, and discovering serenity when life doesn't go according to plan.

| 6/16/26 | ![]() Bitesize | The Confidence Expert: Why You Don't Believe In Yourself # 221 | In this bitesize episode, Paul sits down with entrepreneur and author Fred Joyal to challenge one of the biggest myths about confidence: that you need it before you act. Drawing on his journey from painful introversion to building and leading a nationwide business for nearly three decades, Fred explains why boldness isn’t a personality trait — it’s a learnable skill built through action, discomfort, and repetition. The conversation explores why so many people hesitate to speak up, put themselves forward, or fully express who they are — and how that hesitation quietly limits careers, relationships, and fulfilment. From the confidence crisis facing younger generations to the comfort-seeking traps adults fall into, Fred breaks down why bold action must come first, how small low-stakes courage rewires behaviour, and why the regret people carry later in life is rarely about what they did — but what they never tried. About the Guest Fred Joyal is an entrepreneur, keynote speaker, and author of Boldness: How to Go from Under-Confident to Charismatic in 90 Days. He founded and led a nationwide advertising and referral business for dentists for nearly three decades, serving as CEO for 27 years before its successful exit.

| 6/13/26 | ![]() What People Pleasing Is Costing You | Inner Mentor 19 | #220 | In this Inner Mentor episode, Paul reflects on a remarkable true story of courage and sacrifice. When skydiving instructor Dave Hartsock realised that a catastrophic parachute failure would end in disaster, he made a split-second decision to place himself between his student and the ground, absorbing the full impact and leaving himself paralysed. Years later, when asked if he would do it again, his answer was simple: "Absolutely." But this episode is not really about skydiving. It is about the quieter forms of self-sacrifice that many of us make every day. Paul explores how people often abandon their own dreams, intuition, values, and desires in order to gain approval, avoid disappointment, or live up to the expectations of others. While most of us will never be called upon to make a heroic life-or-death sacrifice, many spend years sacrificing themselves in far less visible ways. Drawing on lessons from philosophy, personal development, and his own life experience, Paul challenges the belief that putting yourself first is selfish. Instead, he explores the difference between selfishness and self-care, and argues that the greatest service we can offer the world is to become the fullest expression of who we truly are. This episode is a reminder to trust your own inner voice, honour your values, and have the courage to live your life according to your own truth. Key Takeaways The difference between self-sacrifice and self-abandonment. Why seeking approval often pulls us away from our authentic path. The distinction between selfishness and healthy self-care. How living according to your values serves both yourself and others. Why other people's opinions should not dictate the direction of your life. The courage required to trust your intuition and follow your own path. Dr. John Demartini's "Law of Lesser Pissers" and what it teaches about decision-making. Why becoming fully yourself may be the greatest contribution you can make. Memorable Quote "The greatest contribution you can make isn't becoming somebody else. It's becoming fully yourself."

The conversation explores why so many successful entrepreneurs and leaders eventually feel disconnected from themselves, despite achieving the success they once believed would fulfil them. Lisa shares insights from decades of leadership coaching and research, explaining how success often causes people to drift away from the person they originally intended to become. Paul and Lisa dive into the idea of “permanence” — not as perfection, but as a daily practice of staying aligned with your values, intentions, and the life you actually want to live. They unpack the power of awareness, the danger of unconscious success, and the surprisingly simple daily question framework that has helped leaders create meaningful personal transformation. The conversation touches on happiness, relationships, identity, leadership, self-awareness, accountability, and how small daily shifts can radically change the trajectory of your life.

| 5/19/26 | ![]() Bitesize: How to Think Like an Entrepreneur #209 | In this bitesize episode, Alan Gregerman challenges one of the most deeply held assumptions in business and leadership: that more knowledge always leads to better outcomes. Drawing on decades of experience working with organisations around the world, Alan explains why expertise can sometimes trap leaders inside old assumptions—and why real breakthroughs often come from not knowing. Rather than glorifying failure, he reframes innovation as a process of learning: testing ideas early, listening to customers, refining quickly, and staying humble enough to adapt as the world changes. About the Guest: Alan Gregerman is an innovation expert, speaker, consultant, and author of The Wisdom of Ignorance.

| 5/17/26 | ![]() Inner Mentor (15) Matthew Perry & The Lie of Success #208 | In this episode of the Inner Mentor Series, Paul reflects on the life of Matthew Perry and the powerful lesson hidden beneath fame, wealth, and global success. Despite becoming one of the most recognisable actors in the world through Friends, earning millions and achieving almost every dream imaginable, Perry openly admitted that success never gave him the peace, self-worth, or freedom from pain he hoped it would. Paul explores the deeper truth behind addiction, achievement, and the relentless pursuit of “more” — and why so many entrepreneurs unknowingly use business, busyness, and success itself as a way to avoid sitting with difficult emotions.

| 5/14/26 | ![]() The 5 Behaviours That Shape Your Financial Future #207 | In this episode Paul chats with Ron Kmetovicz, author of Ghost Money: The Pathway to Financial Independence. Ron explains financial independence in simple, practical terms: multiple revenue streams, minimal debt, and the patience to build wealth over decades rather than chase quick wins. Together, Paul and Ron explore why so many people remain trapped living paycheck to paycheck, even as their income grows, and why financial freedom begins with behaviour long before it shows up in a bank account. This conversation is especially valuable for young people, parents, and anyone trying to build better financial habits. Ron shares his five-finger framework for financial independence: behaviours to avoid, behaviours to adopt, meaningful employment, prudent investing, and writing your own financial story. Paul and Ron discuss the power of starting early, investing consistently, avoiding lifestyle inflation, creating “ghost money,” and building the kind of freedom that allows you to live with greater autonomy, confidence, and peace. About the Guest: Ron Kmetovicz is the author of Ghost Money: The Pathway to Financial Independence.

This conversation reframes how growth actually happens. Gosia explains why most people fail when they try to change everything at once, and how the nervous system resists rapid transformation. Instead, she makes the case for small, consistent shifts — daily habits that compound into meaningful, lasting breakthroughs.

| 5/9/26 | ![]() Inner Mentor (14) When You've Built a Business And Missed Your life #205 | In this deeply personal Inner Mentor episode, Paul reflects on a moment that stopped him in his tracks — finding an old poster during home renovations, signed by his young sons over 25 years ago. The message on the front was simple but confronting: 100 years from now, it won’t matter what you owned… only the impact you had on a child’s life. That moment sparks an honest look back. Not a perfect story — but a real one. The tension between building a business and being present as a father. The missed moments. The lessons learned. And the decision that followed — to make sure his calendar reflected what truly mattered. Paul explores the idea of true wealth — not just prosperity, but prosperity with purpose, and the freedom to live life on your own terms. He shares how so many entrepreneurs achieve financial success, yet quietly sacrifice the very things they started for — family, health, relationships, and time. At its core, this episode asks a simple but uncomfortable question:Do your priorities match how you actually live your life? Because in the end, you don’t get to go back. This is a powerful reminder to pause, reflect, and make sure the life you’re building is one you’ll be proud to look back on.
