Personal development is about learning practical skills: how to focus, build habits, manage your time, read people and speak with confidence. London Real has interviewed authors, coaches and former military specialists who teach these skills for a living. These conversations cover productivity systems, networking, body language, confidence and the coaching and education programmes that help people keep learning. Guests share their own methods, not professional advice. Every full interview is free to watch.
From Atomic Habits author James Clear and Getting Things Done creator David Allen to The 4-Hour Workweek author Tim Ferriss, broadcaster Jordan Harbinger, performance coach Todd Herman, behaviour expert Chase Hughes and former monk Dandapani: the practical skills behind a better life.
James Clear argues that results are a lagging measure of your habits. He explains his four laws of behaviour change and why small 1% improvements add up over time. David Allen, the productivity expert behind Getting Things Done, explains how he believes his system can reduce stress at work and at home. He returns in a later interview to talk about time management. Dandapani, a Hindu priest and former monk of ten years, explains why he sees unwavering focus as the route to freedom and happiness. Tim Ferriss, author of The 4-Hour Workweek, features in a look back at his landmark 2013 episode.
Chase Hughes, a former Navy interrogator and behaviour expert, teaches how he reads behaviour, spots lies and guards against manipulation. Jordan Harbinger, a former Wall Street lawyer who launched The Art of Charm podcast, explains how to build a network, a theme he first raised in his 2012 episode. Online personal trainer James Smith argues that confidence is a skill anyone can learn. Todd Herman, a performance coach to Olympic athletes and CEOs, describes how an alter ego can help people perform under pressure. Retired Navy SEAL Clint Emerson teaches situational awareness for everyday safety.
Many guests teach through coaching and courses. Dan Peña, a high-performance business coach with a long link to London Real, explains how he believes people can conquer fear. Dr John Demartini, a human behaviour expert, shares his formula for wealth and purpose. Vishen Lakhiani talks about how Mindvalley, his education company, approaches personal growth. Entrepreneur Spencer Lodge argues that most people lack courage rather than talent. Philip McKernan explains why everyone should prepare one last talk.
