This isnât about New Yearâs resolutions â itâs about intention.
In this episode, Paul challenges you to look at:
Why youâre really listening
What you truly want

We all feel alone at times. That sense of isolation can feel heavy, confusing, and sometimes even frightening. But hereâs the surprising truth:
Loneliness is rarely the real problem â itâs often a symptom of an unconscious attempt to protect you.
Read MoreIn this powerful longer episode, I dive into the hidden causes of loneliness â why we feel alone, why it often starts as protection, and how we unintentionally reinforce it with the wrong questions.
Then I’ll guide you through a gentle, refined hypnosis process to help you reconnect with yourself, shift your emotions, and find comfort, peace, and connection again.
Read MoreIn this slightly-longer FMQ, weâre taking a gentle but powerful step toward real change. No more talking about the issue. No more cycling through the same thoughts. This episode is all about shifting your focus to what actually creates transformation â how you want to feel.
So many of us get stuck talking, thinking, analysing⌠and nothing changes. Why?
Because talking doesnât always touch the unconscious mind â the place where these patterns were created in the first place.
In this FMQ, I share:
Read MoreJust a few seconds between tasks can reset your focus, break negative carry-over from the last thing you did, and set the intention for doing your best on the next.

The role of feelings and intention in achieving your personal best

Read MoreIn this Five Minute Quickie, Iâm breaking down the RAS in plain English. Itâs the part of your brain that decides what to notice â and itâs powered by emotion. The good news? You can train it to look for opportunities, positivity, and success. The bad news? If youâre stuck in negative emotions, it will keep showing you reasons to stay stuck.
Read MoreWe hear it everywhere: âYou need the mindset of success.â But what does that actually mean? And more importantly â how do you get it?
In this episode of the Personal Development Unplugged podcast, Iâll take you beyond the vague definitions and straight into a practical process you can use right now. Weâll cut through the fluff and create a real mindset of success â one where your mind and body are fully aligned toward a specific goal.
Read MoreLet’s get one thing straight right off the bat – there’s no such thing as a confidence blueprint. If someone’s selling you that, it’s clickbait, pure and simple. But here’s what I can give you: a real, honest look at self-assurity and how to build it from the ground up.
You see, I’ve been where you are. I remember being at the peak of my confidence in my career – I couldn’t do anything wrong, just knew I had it all figured out. Until I didn’t. Something unexpected happened, boom, that confidence bloody went. Completely went. So where did it go? Well, stick around because I’ll tell you about that.
Read MoreThis isnât just about stopping bad habits. Itâs about understanding the intention behind those knee-jerk behaviours and learning how to respond with calm, curiosity, and confidence.

How to recognise the unconscious triggers behind emotional outbursts
Why your unconscious mind isnât the enemyâitâs actually trying to protect you (even if itâs doing a rubbish job)
A simple yet powerful way to thank those old patternsâand let them go
How to build new beliefs and emotional habits that support the real you
Practical steps to respond with intention instead of reaction
And a process to boot to follow along with
