  • Making SME'S 1% Better with Rohit Maini

    Making SME'S 1% Better with Rohit Maini
    May 7 2025

    Doug Bennett interviews Rohit Maini, an award-winning business leader and fellow podcast host. Rohit shares his approach to business, combining compliance work with consultancy that truly helps clients grow. He talks about how he creates a trust based environment for his clients, why holistic goal setting is important and why self-care is a necessity for entrepreneurs and business leaders.

    KEY TAKEAWAYS

    • Rohit focuses on being a business growth partner rather than just handling compliance, actively helping clients with business strategy, acquisitions, and fundraising.
    • Creating a relaxed, trust-based environment is central to effective client relationships; Rohit designs his office for comfort and conversation rather than formal meetings, allowing clients to openly share concerns and ambitions.
    • Rohit's big hairy audacious goal is to make every SME in the world 1% better, recognising that the 5.5 million SMEs in the UK (99.8% of all companies) need greater support and representation on the global business stage.
    • Effective goal setting must be holistic, connecting business targets to personal purpose; entrepreneurs should question the why behind numerical targets to ensure sustainable growth aligned with their true motivations.
    • Small habit changes can trigger major lifestyle improvements, as Rohit discovered when a simple 30-minute morning walk created a cascade effect improving his mental clarity, work efficiency, eating habits, and overall motivation.
    • Taking time for self-care isn't selfish but necessary. You can't give from an empty cup, and personal health enables better service to clients and family.
    • Delegation is a critical skill for business growth, many entrepreneurs struggle with relinquishing control, but without delegating, they can't scale their business.
    • Sharing both successes and challenges creates authentic connections, entrepreneurs should talk about their struggles alongside their highlight reels.

    BEST MOMENTS

    "We're certainly not stuffy accountants... We actually enjoy what we do, and we don't just file forms."

    "I see myself as someone who's trying to help the business grow into the next level, not just sort of file and be the tax guy."

    "For me it was that walk at 6 AM in the morning. It sounds a bit scary getting up that early, but to be honest with you, once you're out of your bed and you kind of walk, you kind of sleepwalk anyway."

    "None of us are that important. To be fair, there's only a few really important people out there in the world. They tend to be brain surgeons, I would imagine, right?"

  • Are You Setting Your Own Goals or Somebody Elses? With Julie Hogbin

    Are You Setting Your Own Goals or Somebody Elses? With Julie Hogbin
    Apr 30 2025
    Julie Hogbin joins Doug in this episode. Julie is a multi-published author and founder of SuccessSuite.io and shares her story towards entrepreneurship, revealing personal setbacks that changed her perspective on success. From challenging limiting beliefs about writing books to creating an all-in-one AI platform for authors, Julie demonstrates how reinvention is possible at any stage in life. Their conversation on goal-setting fundamentals, delayed gratification and creating multiple income streams might just change how you approach your own goals and dreams. KEY TAKEAWAYS Julie emphasises that we're all inherently goal driven, but many entrepreneurs abandon structured goal setting when leaving corporate jobs, only to realise after about five years that they need clearer direction to achieve meaningful success.Leadership starts with self-awareness, understanding your personal style affects everything around you, yet many resist examining themselves deeply. Julie experienced this firsthand when she "unpicked" herself, didn't like what she found, but ultimately redesigned who she wanted to be.io is Julie's new AI-powered platform that streamlines book writing, publishing, marketing funnels, and podcast creation all in one place. It’s designed to help entrepreneurs establish authority and create recurring income streams.Publishing books establishes authority in entrepreneurial spaces. Some people earn substantial recurring income through strategic book publishing and marketing, with Julie mentioning individuals making £13,000 monthly through Amazon book sales and ads.Our goals are often unconsciously inherited from parents, caregivers and generations before us. True goal setting means unpacking these inherited beliefs and consciously creating your own mission and vision.Delayed gratification is Julie's golden nugget for successful goal achievement. Prioritising long-term benefits over immediate rewards in financial decisions, health and relationships creates sustainable success and stability.Julie completely transformed her life at age 52, age shouldn't limit reinvention. She proves that with hustle and working smart rather than just hard, change is always possible. BEST MOMENTS "If we don't have our own goals, we will achieve somebody else's. We don't know whose goals we are achieving. They are indoctrinated into us as we grow up and we carry generational goals with us." "I unpicked myself once, didn't like what I saw, got confused, and then changed bit by bit by bit to design me and I'm really happy with who I am." "In this entrepreneurial world, we've all got a book inside of us, all of us. We've all got more than one book inside of us... Having a book gives you an authority stamp." "The biggest thing, and I'm sure you will have spoken about it before and it is not earth shattering, I've had to learn it, it is one of the most important things to learn to achieve something that you truly want, and it's two words, delayed gratification." "When you really, truly want something, really want it, you can achieve it. You can…nothing sits in isolation, everything is connected.” ABOUT THE GUEST Www.JulieHogbin.com LinkedIn address?: @JulieHogbin X (Twitter) handle?: @JulieHogbin Facebook group SuccessSuite.io Https://LeadershipVoice.scoreapp.com JulieHogbin.com/WealthBeyindMoney.today VALUABLE RESOURCES Website: http://dougbennett.co.uk/ Email: doug@dougbennett.co.uk LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/financialdoug/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/FinancialDoug Facebook Wealth Tribe: https://join.dougbennett.co.uk/ Download Your "Ten-Step Guide To Financial Freedom" Here: https://bit.ly/Struggle-Success BOOKS: Goals Do Come True is now live and available to buy on Amazon: https://amzn.to/3phcy6Z Think Simple, Win Big is now live and available to buy on Amazon: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Think-Simple-Win-Big-Business/ Enjoy, and come back for the latest podcast each Wednesday.

  • Say Your Audacious Goals Out Loud | Holly Budge

    Say Your Audacious Goals Out Loud | Holly Budge
    Apr 23 2025
    Doug is joined by Holly Budge, one of the UK's most accomplished female adventurers. From becoming a professional skydiver to being the first woman to skydive Mount Everest, racing horses across Mongolia and summiting Everest, Holly shares how setting audacious goals transformed her life. But her most meaningful adventure came when she founded "How Many Elephants," working with female anti-poaching rangers in Africa. Holly's enthusiasm for setting and achieving seemingly impossible goals will leave you inspired to voice your own audacious dreams and step outside your comfort zone. KEY TAKEAWAYS At 21, Holly set an audacious goal to become a professional skydiving camera woman despite having no experience in skydiving or filming. By saving money, learning the skills, and persisting despite gender barriers, she achieved this goal, setting a foundation of self-confidence that influenced her future adventures.Holly's experience becoming the first woman to skydive Everest taught her the power of intention setting and perseverance in securing sponsorships. Despite not having £24,000 for the expedition, she said "yes" first and then found sponsors to fund her vision, demonstrating how commitment precedes resources.When faced with unexpected challenges during her adventures, like being caught in a storm on Everest or losing horses in Mongolia, Holly learned to make critical decisions independently.Holly transformed from wanting selfish indulgences in adventure to creating adventure with purpose by founding "How Many Elephants" and "World Female Ranger Week," using her platform to raise funds and awareness for conservation causes that received 500 million views.Her work with female anti-poaching rangers in Africa represents her most meaningful adventure because it combines real danger with genuine purpose beyond personal achievement.Despite feeling like an imposter during her master's degree, Holly earned the highest mark ever given because she discovered something she was truly passionate about.Having supportive parents who didn't push her but encouraged her to follow her interests allowed Holly to develop a natural drive and confidence to pursue unconventional goals, from competing in sports to skydiving professionally.Holly's golden nugget for goal-setting is to "Say it out loud and watch what happens." Voicing your goals to others gives them momentum, creates accountability, and transforms them from thoughts to actions—pushing you beyond your comfort zone where true growth happens. BEST MOMENTS "This 60 seconds of sheer terror completely changed the course of my life. I loved it and I wanted to go back up and do it again straight away. But nobody had told me that people were getting paid to jump out of perfectly good airplanes every day of the year." "I call this hanging onto my 21-year-old mindset, and now I'm 46 and I've kept trying to keep this mindset going over the last two and a half decades, and that's taken me on some pretty incredible sponsored adventures around the world." "These days, for me, it's all about adventure with purpose. I use adventure as a platform to raise funds and raise global media attention for a greater good than me jumping out of an airplane or me climbing a mountain." "Conservation without funding is just conversation. So it's about getting the money to the right places without the middleman." "When you've got your big audacious goal, say it out loud and watch what happens. The minute you voice it and you start chatting to people about it, it suddenly grows arms and legs, but in a really good way."
