Business Matters with Lisa O'Neill & Peter Cook

Conviction Matters

In this episode, we're talking about conviction because the first sale is to yourself. We dive into having shares in yourself, knowing what you're good at, and the five ingredients of the conviction cake: confidence, competence, character, connection, and care. We talk about ideas having people (not the other way around), why 100% commitment beats 99%, and the Australian SAS motto "never done it, bound to be good at it." Plus Pete's legend folder, the world needs you alarm clock, and why what you want wants you. This one's about backing yourself hard enough that everyone else wants in too.

Your Work As A Spiritual Practice Matters

In this episode, we're talking about work as a spiritual practice - what that actually means and why it's not about crystals and dreamcatchers. We dive into "where are your feet?" as the antidote to being busy, Pete's two cheat codes for business success, and why your vibration is your brand. From catching yourself being good to remembering you're living the dream you created, this one's about showing up as more of yourself and being present for all of it. Because the world needs you, and energy is the currency.

Money Matters

In this episode, we're getting real about money trauma, why I need everything in pie charts (spreadsheets make me want to vomit), and the four money games you're actually playing in business. We talk about taking responsibility, why women need to stop outsourcing their financial power, and how I finally sorted my money shit by treating it like my health. Because you've got to be the CFO of your own life, whether you like it or not.

What You Want in Business Matters

What do you want? Not what you're told to want. What does your soul actually want? We dive into why so many people have no fucking clue what they want in business. From Victoria Beckham wanting to be more famous than Persil Automatic to why bronze medalists are happier than silver, we're talking about authentic success, the four-step process to getting what you want (spoiler: manifestation without action is just daydreaming), and building the wanting muscle through daily decisions. Because what you want wants you.

Productivity Matters

In this conversation, we dive into why productivity looks wildly different depending on your brain - from brandy on the top shelf to wild horses versus dressage ponies. If you've ever felt like productivity advice doesn't work for you, this one's for you. Because somewhere between chaos and discipline, you'll find your groove.
