    2025/10/29

    In this week’s episode of Inspiration Nation, the full trio is back as Lee and Ryan welcome the return of Jose Noya. Kicking things off with a classic quote from Stoic philosopher Epictetus, the conversation dives deep into the power of living your values rather than talking about them. From Ryan’s insights on leadership and building trust through consistent action, to Lee’s update on his fitness journey and goal-setting mindset, this episode explores personal development through the lens of everyday choices. Jose emphasizes that true growth is about “being the change,” highlighting how the podcast itself is a reflection of this embodied philosophy.

    With moments of reflection, laughter, and even a little light roasting, the episode captures the raw authenticity that keeps listeners coming back. The team also revisits the value of self-belief, regret, and taking risks—sprinkled with memorable phrases like “f*** around and find out” and references to Dungeons & Dragons longevity goals. Whether you’re into Stoicism, leadership, or just want to hear three friends challenge each other to grow, this episode is a must-listen.

  • "It is not what happens to you, but how you react to it that matters." - Ep 336
    2025/10/09

    In this introspective episode of Inspiration Nation, Lee Kemp and Ryan Boniface—without their usual co-host Jose Noya—dive deep into the power of response with the quote: "It is not what happens to you, but how you react to it that matters." From Epictetus’ ancient Stoic wisdom to modern-day London tube scrambles, the duo explores how our internal discipline, self-awareness, and emotional restraint define our experiences more than the events themselves.

    Ryan reflects on personal growth, fate, and letting go of uncontrollable, while Lee shares a vivid, humorous story of how reacting with self-assurance transformed a potentially embarrassing moment into a non-event. Together, they reinforce the idea that "you create your own reality"—whether it’s replying to a frustrating email or recovering from a public mishap. This episode is a masterclass in practical Stoicism, self-coaching, and taking back your power.

  • Aggregation of marginal gains - Ep 335
    2025/10/06

    Lee, Jose, and Ryan riff on prioritisation, habit-building, and realistic productivity—kicked off by LinkedIn-style memes and a tongue-in-cheek Coldplay anecdote. The core message lands with: “You can do anything, you just can’t do everything.” That quote anchors Lee’s new routine (post-work sessions on the cross trainer), Jose’s James Clear–inspired systems and identity-based habits, and Ryan’s focus on the aggregation of marginal gains—rewarding everyday wins like walking to the station or mowing the lawn. Expect practical talk on time management, consistency vs. guilt, and making fitness and personal growth fit real life (DIY seasons, office jobs, TikTok mishaps and all).

  • “We’re going to need a bigger boat.” - Ep 334
    2025/09/11

    This week on Inspiration Nation, the team dives deep into the power of resilience, ambition, and sacrifice, using Steven Spielberg’s legendary struggle to complete Jaws as a metaphor for personal growth. Jose opens up about how Spielberg nearly crumbled under the pressure of going over budget and battling mechanical failures, yet pushed through to create a film that redefined cinema. Lee and Ryan explore how this mirrors our own internal challenges—where perceived necessity and personal drive can lead us to breakthroughs if we’re willing to pay the price.

    From moon landings to lockdown tech revolutions, the hosts reflect on why doing hard things matters—and how creating your own “necessity” can spark invention. Whether it's fitness, personal goals, or creative ventures, this episode challenges you to ask: What are you willing to sacrifice to succeed?

  • “Once You Begin, Fear Shrinks” Ep331
    2025/08/08

    In this week’s episode of Inspiration Nation, Jose and Ryan tackle a powerful quote by James Clear: “Stress and worry tend to be higher before you act. Without action, all you can do is worry. Once you begin, fear shrinks as you start to influence the outcome.” The duo dives into the emotional weight of inaction and how fear often dissipates the moment we take the first step. Whether it's delivering high-stakes training on short notice or managing tight deadlines, both hosts share real-life experiences highlighting the importance of starting—even when the odds feel stacked.

    The conversation underscores how action is the antidote to fear and how trust in one’s own capabilities is key to overcoming stress. Ryan emphasizes that tight deadlines can sometimes be a blessing, eliminating the space for anxiety, while Jose reflects on how feedback and reflection help prevent recurring stress. Their candid discussion delivers a motivational punch: progress begins the moment you move.
