Good morning everyone and welcome to a special episode of the Morning Mindset. This one will be a little bit different because it's actually the last episode I'll be recording for this podcast channel. Do not worry, it's not goodbye, it's not farewell, it's just more of a new beginning. Shall we say an evolution, probably better way to put it. I'm going to take the Morning Mindset to a new place that is aligned perfectly with my other projects and goals. I want to start by saying how much I love recording the Morning Mindset. It's been an incredible journey. We're just short of 100 episodes of the podcast daily show. I absolutely love it and the opportunity to share my thoughts of mindset and growth and what it means to run a business has been one of the most fulfilling parts of my day, and the recordings that I do week in, week out. But I believe it's time to take that experience to another level, moving forward. You'll still get the morning mindset, but it's going to be integrated into my other podcast, which is the Mortgage Broker Broadcast.

Speaker 1:

For anyone unfamiliar, the Mortgage Broker Broadcast has been running for well over three and a half years now and it started out as a weekly show dedicated to helping brokers and business owners navigate the ups and downs of the industry, growing their businesses and building something that's both profitable and personally meaningful, and also had guests on there as well just to share their experiences being brokers and business owners. And when I began the morning mindset, it felt natural to focus on this channel on like a critical aspect of personal development and self-leadership that's central to success, especially in self-employment. And yet, the more I've thought about it, the more I realized that the morning mindset and the mortgage broker broadcast are really two sides of the same coin. They sort of do belong together, because mindset is at the core of everything we do as brokers, as business owners and as individuals. Starting from next week, you'll be able to find all of the Morning Mindset content as part of the Mortgage Broker Broadcast, which we'll be returning back to its weekly format. This change means a more regular, integrated experience for everyone that listens to the podcast, with episodes tackling both practical and mental sides of the industry, and this decision didn't come lightly. I've loved building this space with you all that listen to the Morning Mindset, and I'm grateful to everyone who has tuned in, subscribed, left comments and shared their own insights and feedback. You made this journey what it is, and it's truly because of you that I know it's right. It's the time to change. It is right now, and it is the right thing to do. Your feedback has been invaluable and I'm excited to take it, take us into this new chapter.

Speaker 1:

Some of you may know that I run my own mortgage broker firm, and I also mentor mortgage brokers and business owners, and mindset is always a key piece of that puzzle. Why? Because mindset is the backbone of resilience when you're self-employed or running your own business as well as I do. That every single day brings new challenges, whether it's dealing with the market, dealing with clients, clients dealing with lenders, dealing with all the parts of it, then navigating the complexities of growth. Having the right mindset makes all the difference, and that's what the mortgage broker broadcast will continue to be helping you not only build a successful business, but develop a mindset that helps you thrive personally and professionally. So what can you expect from the Mortgage Broker Broadcast? Moving forward, we're going to keep doing what we've always done delivering content that matters to you, that supports your growth and helps you tackle both the business and mental side of being self-employed. But now, though, we'll be diving into the mindset topic on a regular basis, making sure that the wisdom and insights from the morning mindset are fully integrated into the broadcast, and this weekly format gives us a chance to explore topics in greater depth and consistency, bringing you the best of both worlds strategic business insights and powerful mindset coaching.

Speaker 1:

I just want to take a moment to reflect on everything that we've achieved through the morning mindset. We've talked about embracing change, about stopping blame game, taking ownership, focusing on what matters most. We've explored benefits of gratitude, the importance of self-discipline, the courage it takes to face fears head on. These are more than just ideas. They're essential building blocks for a resilient life and business, and I hope that, as we make this shift, you can carry these lessons with you and continue to build them as part of your journey. To all of you who made the morning mindset part of your routine, thank you so much. Thank you for letting me be part of your mornings, for trusting me to share insights that I hope have helped you helped in some way.

Speaker 1:

This podcast has been like a bit of a labour of love, shall we say, and the fact that it's had an impact on even one person's life or business means the world to me. I'm genuinely grateful for every single person that's listened or watched the podcast, and I want you to know that this is only the beginning. So, starting next week, you're going to find me on the Mortgage Broker Broadcast with the same dedication, the same insights and the same focus on what matters most in life and in business. This is a step forward, a way to bring you even more value in a single space. So make sure you subscribe to the Mortgage Broker Broadcast if you haven't already. I can't wait to see you there every single week as we get into new topics, share strategies and keep growing together.

Speaker 1:

And remember the journey doesn't stop here. Mindset will continue to play a crucial role in everything we do. If anything, this shift will give us a chance to go deeper into how mindset interacts with our goals, challenges and daily choices we make as business owners. So, just before I sign off for the last ever episode, I want to extend my heartfelt thanks once again. Thank you for being part of this community, thank you for showing up, for putting in the work on your mindset and for sharing this space with me every single day. This isn't goodbye, it's simply a new beginning. So I'm looking forward to what's ahead. Here's to growth, resilience and the mindset that propels us forward. I'll see you next week on the mortgage broker broadcast. Have an amazing day. Stay motivated, stay focused, stay positive and run your own race.
