For most of my career, I’ve been known as a serial entrepreneur, 3-time bestselling author, international keynote speaker and podcast host, with over 15,000,000 downloads amassed via hundreds of episodes, on various shows.

I’ve spent decades building businesses and helping thousands of people create successful entrepreneurial careers. 

But after experiencing burnout in 2021, I realised that ‘success’ that comes as a result of mistreating your physical and mental health, isn’t success at all.

The more research I did to be able to recover from and avoid burnout for the rest of my life successfully, the more nature and the natural world came up as a topic of discussion.

I quickly realised that even with the success and accolades that came with being a success in the business world… something was missing.

During my recovery, I found myself spending more and more time outdoors, looking for a sense of calm and perspective that had become increasingly more and more important to me, but equally hard to find. 

That’s when I discovered birding.

What began as a simple curiosity, quickly became a passion. The more time I spent watching birds, the more I appreciated how they encouraged me to slow down, pay attention and be fully present. 

Today, birding is one of the most important parts of my life. Whether I’m exploring nature reserves, travelling internationally in search of new species, or simply enjoying the birds in my garden, I never tire of the sense of wonder that the hobby (or is it… obsession!!?!!) brings.

This is where I share that journey. Through videos on my YouTube Channel, and via conversations with other birders on my podcast.
