Win the Day – Details, episodes & analysis

"The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing." — Edmund Burke

Dean Stott served in one of the world’s most elite special forces units, the British SBS (Special Boat Service).

In a 16-year military career, Dean deployed to the planet’s most hostile environments, tackled counter-terrorism operations, and lived the unrelenting pursuit of excellence.

In 2011, a parachuting accident ended his military career, but Dean didn’t slow down. He became a world-leading security consultant, protecting presidents, royal families, and governments—even evacuating the Canadian Embassy in Libya in 2014 and rescuing over 200 people from Israel in 2023.

Then, with barely 20 miles of cycling experience, Dean set out to break two world records by biking the 14,000-mile Pan American Highway from Argentina to Alaska in under 100 days. He did it—raising over $1.4 million for mental health charities along the way.

In 2024, Dean was awarded the MBE (Member of the Order of the British Empire).

Dean now hosts Netflix’s Toughest Forces on Earth and SAS Australia, while inspiring global audiences as a sought-after speaker.

In this episode:

• How to set—and achieve—goals beyond your wildest imagination.

• The best lessons from the world’s preeminent special forces units.

• How to build unbreakable resilience when everything goes wrong.

• Why a better life starts with you.

“Nothing will work unless you do.” – Maya Angelou

Today, we’re sitting down with one of the great spiritual leaders of all time, Marianne Williamson, who is also running for President of the United States in 2024.

Marianne is the author of 15 books, four of which have been #1 New York Times bestsellers, and she has been the catalyst for some of today’s great change-makers to transform the world.

Throughout her career, Marianne has worked on poverty, anti-hunger and racial reconciliation issues. She is the founder of Project Angel Food, a non-profit organization that has delivered more than 16 million meals to ill and dying homebound patients since 1989.

Becoming President of the United States is about as lofty as a goal gets, but she’s spent her 30+ year career preparing for this moment.

The pillars of her Presidential campaign are:

• The restoration of America’s middle class, including universal healthcare, tuition free college and tech school, and a guaranteed living wage;
• The establishment of a Department of Peace and the Department of Children and Youth;
• The declaration of a Climate Emergency to mass mobilize for the development of a green energy grid; and
• Ending America’s Drug War.

Marianne believes the transformation of American society requires that we address the root causes of the problems, rather than just their symptoms – a focus that every country in the world should get behind.

She’s running for the Democratic nomination. If elected, Marianne will be the first female, the first mother, and the first grandmother to be President of the United States.

In this episode:

• The biggest problems facing the world today – and how to solve them;
• How to disrupt the educational system to properly empower the next generation;
• The dirty world of politics and her plan to give it a complete overhaul; and
• What you can do to step into your power and transform the world.

Let’s WIN THE DAY with Marianne Williamson!

"Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness, that most frightens us." — Marianne Williamson

Welcome to our first episode of 2024!

This is the second and final 'from the vault' episode we've been publishing during the holiday season — and there's no better one to set the tone for who need to become to achieve the lofty goals you have.

In a career spanning more than 20 years, Navy SEAL Commander Rich Diviney completed more than a dozen overseas deployments and was intimately involved with the selection process for the most elite special forces unit.

Since retiring from the Navy, Rich has taught leadership and optimal performance to business, athletic, and military leaders from organizations such as American Airlines, the San Francisco 49ers, Zoom, and Deloitte.

His book, The Attributes: 25 Hidden Drivers of Optimal Performance, is an epic read about the attributes we need to unlock and the skills we need to develop.

In this episode:

• The keys to optimal performance in all areas of life
• How Rich made it through one of the most grueling selection processes on the planet
• The most important lessons from his 20-year Navy SEAL career, and
• How you can harness the right attributes for massive success in 2024 and beyond.

Let’s WIN THE DAY with Rich Diviney!

Onward and upward always,

James

“There is no greater agony than bearing an untold story inside you.” — Maya Angelou

What if you had the most incredible product or idea, but didn’t know how to communicate it? 🤔

It’s an all too familiar story – and one of the biggest things holding people back from the connection, opportunity, and success they want.

Make no mistake – your ability to communicate is directly correlated to the results you get.

So, to help you communicate like a pro, we’ve got one of the world’s leading communication experts, Matt Abrahams, joining us in today’s episode...

Matt is a Stanford professor, award-winning podcaster, and communication consultant. He has helped numerous presenters prepare for high-stakes talks, including IPO roadshows, Nobel Prize award presentations, and appearances at TED and the World Economic Forum.

His book Speaking Up without Freaking Out: 50 Techniques for Confident and Compelling Presenting has helped a wide audience manage speaking anxiety and present more confidently and authentically. His new book Think Faster, Talk Smarter: How to Speak Successfully When You’re Put On the Spot has just been released.

In this episode:

• How to turn your fear and anxiety into a strength
• The 6-step framework to thrive in presentations and spontaneous conversation
