Life Coaches Are Not All Equal

2026/10/21

Life coaching, when practised effectively, is often transformative and life-changing in its effect. Formal training is essential and should be comprehensive and in-depth, with a good blend of theory and practical application, and administered in accordance with an appropriate code of ethics. Be very wary of the recent deluge of courses that promise all of that in just a few short weeks or even months! Let us know what you think!

Fair Exchange, the Key to Abundance

2026/09/22

Fair exchange promotes the natural abundance that exists in our world ... but to practice fair exchange, you must believe in a natural state of abundance. Sadly, the opposite is also true. Those with a scarcity mentality practice unfair exchange in the belief that there is only so much to go around and that life is a competition to secure a fair share, or preferably, more. In this podcast, Bill narrates a chapter from his book, self-published in 2010: A Boerewors Roll for the Soul - Awaken to the Magic of the Life You Love. He is in the process of extensively editing and updating it, with the aim of releasing it as an ebook before the end of 2026. Let us know what you think!

What Do You Stand For?

2026/09/02

If someone who knew you well were asked what you stand for, what would they say? It's a question most of us have never actually answered — and in a world that grows noisier by the year, that leaves us drifting: busy, committed, yet carried along by a current we never chose. In this episode I share a leadership exercise that has stayed with me for thirty years, unravel the difference between purpose, values and a personal mission, and offer a simple exercise to help you put what you stand for into words — and live by it.

Embrace Change and Let the Magic Happen

2026/08/19

They say the only constant in life is change. But for most of us, significant change can be scary to contemplate. Few realise that we have an inbuilt self-protection mechanism to thank for this; a mechanism that represents ‘overkill’ when it comes to modern-day living. In this podcast, I’ll explain why we are naturally resistant to change and why that often deprives us of opportunities for personal growth and development that come our way. I’ll also share simple ways to learn to embrace change and enjoy defining moments that lead us to live to our full potential. Let us know what you think!

How to Deal With Life's Challenges? Revisit the Context!

2026/07/23

For so many of us, life is a slog, as we deal, reactively, with one problem after another. That’s because we have fallen into a trap of humanity’s making. To break out of that trap, we need to find purpose, and that starts with an appreciation of the context to life — the incredible grand design of which each of us is an intricate part.

Switch Off Your Autopilot – and Wake Up to Your Life

2026/06/23

Have you noticed how easy it is to reach the end of a day and barely remember any of it? So many of us are living on autopilot, following a tried-and-tested formula for success that no longer quite fits the world we now live in.

Life Coaching: From Desperation to Inspiration

2026/06/09

When a problem has us in its grip, every door ahead looks closed. But desperation is rarely about the thing in front of us — it is about how stuck we feel in relation to it.

How Virtual Living is Killing Self-Awareness

2026/04/08

With modern-day living, we are witnessing a diminishing focus on the real world around us and—driven by commercial interests—a rapidly increasing focus on the virtual world we access via our TVs, computers and handheld devices. In this po’dcast, Bill argues that ‘virtual living’ with its cultivated scenes and sound bites, promotes inauthenticity, and individual ego stroking, at the expense of growth in self-awareness and a purpose-driven life characterised by the desire to give back.

The Joy of Living Life on Your Own Terms

2026/03/24

A surprisingly common issue that life coaches are asked to assist with, relates to people who describe a feeling of loss of control over—or loss of direction in—their lives. The cause of this disorder can often be traced to living a life on terms other than your own, or, in other words, living your life in the way that you think is expected or demanded of you by others. In this podcast, Bill highlights how self-centred control, and lack of personal responsibility act to take away the joy and happiness that life was designed to impart to us.
