Sadly, there are many people silently suffering from a work/life imbalance that is slowly draining them of life and energy. The rat race, the hamster wheel, the corporate ladder. It's a real-life cliche with many different names but holding the same pain.
Within that group is a small number of people who manage to escape. A change in direction, a new business, following a passion, a rebalance of life that returns their smile and energy. Their example brings hope to others.
Today's guest brings that example and encouragement in spades. James Doran escaped from a hectic onshore/offshore work life and steadily built up his now full-time property business that has seen him re-engage fully with his daughters, re-energise his energy and health, and re-connect with himself as a man...
> Hear James share the pain of his former life that took his time and energy, that impacted his mental health, and that stole precious time from being with his kids...
> Listen to James speak openly about the pressure that cracked his marriage and the feelings of not believing he could escape the gilded cage he had built through a highly-paid job...
> Hear how a book dropping through the door gave him a spark of awareness to start questioning what he really wanted from life...
> Hear James speak about the recently uncovered item that showed him just how far he's managed to come, through his hard work and commitment...
> Listen to how James has transformed his life mentally, emotionally, and spiritually...
> and hear how his business not only helps him and his family, but serves others like his investor clients who now benefit from his expertise, knowledge and contacts...
In today's show, we have two active guests and one angelic passive guest.
We hear from Nana and Emelie from Miracle Properties, and we even have their beautiful weeks-old daughter Celeste just off-camera silently making sure that mum and dad answer their questions correctly.
That's right, we'll get to see and hear how a busy family that already has another older daughter, can succeed in business and investing.
Then add in the international flavours of Sweden, the US, the UK property market, and outsourcing in the Philipines, and you have a family determined to mould their future using tech, travel, and tactics.
> Emelie tells how building houses with her father in Sweden produced a love affair with property that she encouraged Nana to think about...
> Hear Nana explain how a moment of insight walking in the Los Angeles hills finally brought him on board...
> Learn the story of Miracle Properties and how they use short-term strategies such as buy-to-flips, and long-term strategies such as HMOs to build their business...
> Share the frustrations of the COVID year of 2020 that hampered their deals and projects, but how they survived through it all...
> And hear Nana's and Emelie's thoughts as parents to share the same financial and business knowledge and experience they've built up to help their daughters in the future...
