Hello and welcome to A Bit Of A Boost with me, George Anderson

I'm a wellbeing and performance coach, speaker and author and this podcast brings together guest experts, inspirational stories and ideas that I hope will you a bit of a boost.

My guest today is a long time client and personal inspiration of mine, Laura Chandler.

I've seen her overcome many challenges and completely transform her life over the last few years, but life has really been testing her in the last 18 month.

Laura's approach to adversity, challenges and change isn't just inspirational, it's also instructive. In our conversation she shares many of the strategies she has put to use to help her navigate some of the most challenging months of her life.

Welcome back to A Bit Of A Boost with me, George Anderson!

Today's episode is a whilstle stop tour of 84 different energy-boosting ideas, taken from one of the free Boost Toolkit resources I created for my new book By Design Not Default.

When I was writing the book I originally included these within a chapter, but there was way too much in it so I relegated it to an appendix. Then on the second or third rewrite it still felt like it was bloating the book, so I took them out completely and added them to the resource pack.

They're not all going to be relevant to you... but imagine if you could just start doing two or three simple things and that they leave you with more energy, more resilience and more bandwidth?

I also outline 3 key concepts at the start of this episode that you need to keep in mind whenever you're faced with a load of 'stuff you could do'.

1) The Effort Impact Matrix

2) Momentum Habits

3) Flexibility is the key to consistency

If you don't already have a copy of the book head over to Amazon or the website (for a signed author copy) now, and you'll have the link for the rest of the Toolkit (including helpful guided worksheets and a link to a custom GPT 'AI Energy Coach' I have created to support with putting these ideas into practice.

Thanks to a podcast hiatus over the last few months, I never got the chance to share some of the lessons from my latest ultra endurance adventure, another 24 hour ultra marathon in June!

I always intended on laying down these lessons, primarily for my own benefit to solidify them in my head, but also I think some of them have relevance to any situation in or outside of endurance sports.
