S3 E01: Angeline V. Teo on Life & Leadership in Challenging Times

I connected with Angeline V. Teo in Singapore to talk about staying positively active and motivated during the COVID-19 pandemic; we also touched on the power of mentorship, the importance of always moving forward, and Singapore’s incredible food scene.

During challenging times it’s critical to have the right attitude and real tools to help you keep moving forward. I discussed these topics with Angeline, an amazing woman who has epitomized resilience and inspired thousands through her writing, speaking, coaching, and training.

I first met Angeline in Singapore more than fifteen years ago at the Global Summit on Professional Speaking. Since then she has brought me to Asia on a number of occasions to speak and train large multi-national corporations on behalf of her consultancy, d’Oz International. I think it’s safe to say that my obsession with the tropics and really good Asian food is entirely her fault!

Angeline is President and Chief Consultant for PEP Worldwide Asia, where she helps executives and teams from multi-national corporations to “peak their performance” through coaching and training programs. Author, world traveler, and executive coach, Angeline is always working to make a difference in the lives of others. She lives by her favourite acronym – SPAM (Staying Positively Active and Motivated)!

S2 E05: Fareen Samji on Smashing the Grass Ceiling

I had a fantastic time meeting with Fareen Samji to discuss her journey to becoming a world class golfer, 5-time Canadian Long Drive champion, and entrepreneur. We discussed the power of creating connections, the trials and tribulations of life on tour, why it’s important to take risks, and we apologized (again) for the behaviour of Raptor fans! We spoke on location at Artisano’s bakery in Burlington, Ontario. Join us!

Fareen “Far” Samji is a former professional golfer, and a 5-time ILDC Canadian Women’s Long Drive Champion (2012-2016). With a personal best Long Drive of 334 yards, at 5’5” tall, she is considered small for the sport, proving that bigger isn’t always better… better is better. She has also achieved success as an entrepreneur, an internationally acclaimed athlete, and a community leader. Far is a dynamic presenter, clinic leader, and storyteller. Sitting down with her was a blast!

S2 E04 : Adrian Leeds (HGTV’s House Hunters International) on Living in Paris, Creating Your Own Path, and Embracing the Now

I sat down with Adrian Leeds in the heart of Paris to discuss life in France, her time on House Hunters International, and why you should never get your own butter in a French restaurant. We also talk about living in the moment, life’s journey, and more.

Most listeners will know Adrian from her 37 (and counting!) guest appearances on HGTV’s House Hunters International, where she guides prospective home buyers (and renters) as they find new places to live in Paris and other locations throughout France. She is a real estate consultant, entrepreneur, and living proof that if you want to make a change in your life, it can be done!

She graciously hosted us in her home in the Marais, in the heart of Paris.

season-2-1

Paul and Camille talk about her life in music, the process of recording, song writing, and why Jack Johnson stresses her out (he’s just so chill!). They recount the early days of jamming to Led Zeppelin, which countries have the best food, and how things change as you get older.

Camille performs her new song “Can’t Help” live during the show, and recounts the process of creating Fight or Flight with a Brazilian producer who challenged her to explore new possibilities with her sound and writing.

Paul and Cam also talk about things she’s learned living in Brazil, the bizarre inner monologue of performers, and trading fish for upgrades on the plane. For anyone interested in the music biz – or following your passions – this is the show for you!
