On this episode, I had a super conversation with Aliya Raja.

Aliya is a personal and professional development coach, a corporate trainer, a podcast host an entrepreneur and founder of Coaching with Aliya.

She helps people develop the range of skills they need to maximize their potential, which obviously I couldn't wait to hear more about.

We talked about changing our lifestyle and our habits, how organizations need to change and evolve post COVID at the confidence gap between men and women. Fascinating stuff.

Aliya says: "Have big goals, have wonderful relationships, have huge amounts of success in your life. But unless you're also dedicating yourself to knowing who you are, knowing what you want and nurturing the relationship you have with yourself, you will end up feeling empty and disconnected, no matter how many boxes you tick that look impressive to other people."

She gave lots of practical tips about how to stay connected to what's important to you, how to succeed at work and at home, and she gave me lots of food for thought about how we classify success in our lives. I hope you enjoy the conversation.
