What goal have you been staring at but refusing to pursue? In this episode of Inspiration Nation, Lee Kemp, Jose Noya and Ryan Boniface explore persistence, failure, resilience and the courage to take action. Using the metaphor, “Not every lion that chased a deer caught it, but every lion that caught a deer chased it,” they discuss why success is never guaranteed—but becomes impossible when you do not try. From overcoming fear of rejection to making time for meaningful goals, the conversation reveals how every attempt offers valuable lessons, even when the outcome is not what you expected.

The episode’s defining message is: “You don’t control whether you catch the deer. You only control whether you chase it. The chase is your responsibility.” It is a powerful reminder to focus on what you can control, choose your goals carefully and avoid giving up too early. What is the “deer” you need to start chasing today? Like the episode, subscribe to Inspiration Nation, share it with someone who needs encouragement, and leave a review.

What if one small change in the way you think could unlock better decisions, stronger relationships, and more opportunities? In this episode of Inspiration Nation, Lee Kemp shares key lessons from behavioural scientist and speaker Jez Rose after attending one of his talks on mindset, habits, and personal growth. Together, Lee and Jose explore the dangers of living on autopilot, the power of mindfulness, the importance of keeping life and work simple through the RESET framework, and why asking better questions leads to better outcomes. Their biggest takeaway is a simple but transformative shift in language: replacing "No, because..." with "Yes, if..." to encourage solution-focused thinking and create possibilities instead of barriers.

Central Quote: “Replace ‘No, because…’ with ‘Yes, if…’” This idea becomes the foundation of the conversation, demonstrating how a small mindset shift can encourage creativity, collaboration, coaching, and positive problem-solving in both your personal and professional life. The episode also explores mindfulness, positive reinforcement, behavioural change, growth mindset, leadership, coaching, productivity, and continuous self-development, offering practical insights listeners can apply immediately.
