Raising Your Game

Raising Your Game Welcome to Raising Your Game, a UK Training, Coaching and Consultancy provider based in London! How well are you Raising Your Game?

As we consider our journey to be a game within games, all contributing to the biggest game known to all, life…. Knowing that some rules are set in advance, we live life seeking to review, challenge and create new rules. As and when we notice any rules not fulfilling our values or purpose, we either adapt or choose a new game. As we all know, one constant on this rock flying through space is ‘change’. Utilising a curious outlook, our dynamic team of behavioural change specialists maximise daily opportunities to learn, integrate and apply new found knowledge. With flexibility in our approach, we have a strong desire to create freedom of choice. Last but not least, it is nice to know that ‘success’ is blind and does not care who you are.... meaning that the introduction of effective behaviours daily will allow anyone to create their own success. We invite everyone to think well and become an action addict, Raising Your Game! Join and follow our journey:

Are your thoughts real? 🤔

Or are they just stories you've told yourself so many times that you've started to believe them?

In this podcast, “Why Knowing Isn’t Doing,” Nicole and I discuss how thoughts can shape how we see ourselves, and ultimately how we behave.

Because here's the thing:

A thought isn't necessarily a fact ("real").

Sometimes we need to stop, question the story we're telling ourselves, and ask:

“Is this actually true?”

What was your biggest takeaway?

Or perhaps even more importantly…

What thought have you had to challenge in order to move forward?

Am I deserving of success?

It's a question we don't always ask ourselves out loud.

But what happens when we start to grow beyond the identity we've created for ourselves?

One part of us says:

“I want to do this. I know I'm capable of it.”

While another part says:

“But are you really safe here?”

Sometimes the biggest barrier to growth isn't capability.

It's stepping beyond what feels familiar.

It's challenging the identity we've become comfortable with and being willing to become someone new.

This was one of the many fascinating topics Nicole Maro and I explored during our podcast conversation.

It was such a pleasure to be invited, and I'm really excited that I can finally share the full conversation with you.

What if change isn’t difficult…

What if we’ve just made it difficult? 👀

We spend so much time overthinking change.

Waiting for the right moment.

Waiting until we feel ready.

Waiting until we know exactly what happens next.

But what if change starts with something much simpler…

A decision.

🎙️ This is just a little glimpse into my conversation with Nicole Maro.

👇 Watch the clip and ask yourself:

What’s one change you know you need to make but keep making harder than it needs to be?

Keep an eye out for the full episode later today. 🎧

Remember, As you change, everything changes.

If you want a different outcome, you have to change what you do.

When we think about achieving a goal or creating a new habit, it's easy to focus on what we want to achieve.

But real transformation comes through a shift in behaviour.

At any given moment, we have a choice:

1. How are we talking to ourselves?
2. What are we doing? And, most importantly...
3. What action are we taking towards the outcome we want?

Sometimes the answer is simple:

Just go do it.

Because taking that first step is what starts creating the desired outcome.

As I often say: "The only true measurement of change is a shift in behaviour."

This was another thought-provoking part of my conversation with Nicole Maro on her podcast.

It's only a short snippet, but there's so much more to the conversation... Full episode releasing tomorrow!

👇 So here's the question:

What behaviour do you need to change to achieve your desired outcome?

I'd love to hear your thoughts.

What you accept is what you can expect.

I’ve used this quote for many years, and it came up during a recent conversation with Nicole on her podcast.

Because when we allow something to happen repeatedly, we’re creating a boundary around what we’re willing to accept.

And eventually that boundary will quietly become what we can expect.

Sometimes the hardest part isn't knowing what needs to change... It's being honest enough to recognise what we've been accepting.

Maybe the question isn't "What do I want?"

It's:

"What am I allowing?"

This is just a short snippet from what is a powerful conversation with Nicole.

I'm excited to share the full episode with you all later this week.

So here's the question:

What are you currently accepting that you shouldn't be?

I'd be interested to hear your thoughts 👇

"Success doesn't care about how you feel."

That single sentence says a lot... 👊

Here's a sneak peek from an amazing conversation I had with on her podcast.

We touched upon why success is built on consistency, discipline, and taking action... even on the days you don't feel like it.

This is only a teaser... the full conversation drops next week, and I can't wait to share it with you!

A huge thank you to Nicole for inviting me onto the podcast. It was a real pleasure to be part of the conversation, and I know you're going to enjoy the full episode.

👇 After watching the clip, tell me...

Do you think success cares how you feel, or does it reward action regardless?

🥳 Raising Your Game turns 10 today 🥳

10 years ago, Raising Your Game was just an idea, built on a belief, an energy, and a willingness to start.

What I didn’t fully appreciate at the time was that this journey wouldn’t just be about building a business, it would be about the people who became part of it.

Because over a decade, you learn that:

✨️ Consistency quietly outperforms intensity.
✨️ Relationships open more doors than strategy alone.
✨️ Staying true to your values matters more than quick wins.
✨️ And growth comes from the moments that stretch you most.

But more than anything, you realise you don’t do it alone 🤝

To everyone who’s been part of Raising Your Game in any way.... clients, collaborators, supporters, advocates, or even those who’ve followed the journey quietly... Thank You!

You’ve helped shape what RYG has become, and that’s something I’m incredibly grateful for.

So this milestone isn’t just a reflection, it’s a recognition.

Here’s to continued growth, meaningful impact, and the next chapter, together.
