Deep Dive with Ali Abdaal

We tend to think that love and relationships occur naturally - you can't work on them or improve them because love is something outside of our control. But the truth is more scientific than that. It turns out that we can actually have a big impact on how our relationships work, and whether or not they fail. By being more considerate of our partners, and really investing in quality time together, we can build bonds that last a lifetime. In this bonus episode of Deep Dive, Drs John and Julie Gottman, world renowned relationship experts, talk you through some of the things you can do to make your relationship truly happy and fulfilling, and the red flags to look out for which could indicate future trouble.

We’ve all been to parties where we meet people at the centre of the room, oozing charisma and confidence, and we think they must be born with it. But I’m beginning to discover that social confidence can be practice and learned - it’s not just something you have or you don’t. Today’s guest has a personal story that illustrates this really well. Aliénor Hunter is a professional public speaking coach with Ultraspeaking, a company that helps people speak confidently, spontaneously and conversationally in 30 days. But - she used to be too nervous to even phone the hairdressers or speak to cashiers at the grocery store. In this episode, we’re going to talk through Aliénor's journey, and give you some clear, effective, and actionable steps to improve your confidence and to feel less anxious in social situations, when you’re giving a work presentation or meeting someone for the first time. If we have the tools to manage our social anxiety we’ll also be better at putting ourselves out there and looking for opportunities that might change the course of our lives. We’re going to talk about public speaking, and even play a few of Ultraspeaking’s confidence building games, so you can see that there’s a path towards getting the most out of life through levelling up your mindset.Sponsored by Huel - go to https://www.huel.com/deepdive and with your first order you’ll get a free t-shirt and shaker.Sponsored by Kajabi - go to https://www.kajabi.com/ali to get FREE access to the keynote.Sponsored by Trading 212 - download the Trading 212 app https://trading212.com/promocodes/ALI and use the promo code "ALI" after signing up and depositing to receive a random free share worth up to £100.

He’s a world renowned psychologist who’s dedicated himself to understanding the way the human mind works. He’s worked with elite athletes like the Olympic cyclists Sir Chris Hoy and Victoria Pendleton, 5-time snooker world champion Ronnie O’Sullivan, as well as the England football team, to help them overcome mental barriers and optimise their performance. He’s perhaps best-known for his first book, 'The Chimp Paradox', which has sold millions of copies worldwide. The book gives us a mind management approach based on the idea that there are three forces which govern our brains. The emotional and primal 'chimp' is impulsive and often anxious, while our inner human is calm, logical, and rational. This system can help us better understand our behaviour and handle moments of stress and difficulty. In this episode we’re going to talk about how to use the Chimp Model to change your life, and how it can revolutionise the way you see yourself and others. You’ll get an insight into Professor Steve Peters’ world renowned coaching methods that have helped so many people lead happier, healthier and more successful lives. Enjoy!

But so many people spend years and years planning a business without actually taking the plunge and going for it. We want to plan for every challenge and potential problem, and forget that the most important step is to just start something. It turns out that some of the best businesses are born from spur of the moment decisions and taking surprising and exciting risks. In this episode of Deep Dive I chat to Thom Elliot, co-founder of the restaurant business Pizza Pilgrims. Pizza Pilgrims started on a whim when Thom and his brother went on a trip around Italy trying to taste test the best pizzas in the country. From there, Pizza Pilgrims has become an award winning business, which has survived all the adversity of the pandemic to celebrate its tenth birthday this year.

Do you panic under pressure? Maybe it’s a job interview, or an important exam, or a presentation at work. Expectation and nerves can get to us, and we don’t know how to cope. But - there are ways that we can build our resilience and work towards the goals that really matter to us. Today on Deep Dive I’m joined by Dan Carter - one of the greatest rugby players of all time. He’s super famous in his home country of New Zealand, where he played for the All Blacks for over fifteen years and lead them to historic victories. He is the highest ever points scorer in test match rugby history and many people think he is the best ever fly half the game has ever known, having been named International Player of the Year three times. But he’s also encountered significant setbacks in his career, and since his retirement from the professional game, he’s gone on to become a leader, advisor and writer, helping people achieve their potential. His new book, The Art of Winning, is all about how to become the best in your game - whatever that may be. In this conversation we’re going to be talking about how to find your purpose, overcome setbacks and perform well under pressure.

For a lot of people, the creator economy can seem like a bit of a mystery. You might be wondering how to start creating online, or how to scale a side hobby into a monetisable business. And with trends and platforms and algorithms changing all the time, it can be really hard to keep up, let alone know what your next steps could be to make the most of your potential. Today I’m joined by Colin and Samir, the podcasting duo and Youtube experts who have spent over ten years helping creators navigate the creator economy. They got their start building a small online network for college lacrosse, before their business was built and they then pivoted into helping creators make the most of the online space. Their main channel has over 1 million subscribers, and they have interviewed some of the world’s biggest YouTubers like MKBHD and MrBeast. They also have a side channel called Creator Support, where they answer questions from audience members to help them scale their creator businesses. In this episode we’re going to talk about everything they've learned in 12 years on YouTube, how to build a long-lasting creative business, and the future of the creator economy. Enjoy!

BONUS EPISODE: Today I’m joined by Daniel Ek - a man you might never have heard of but whose business you’ve almost certainly used. Daniel is the co-founder and CEO of Spotify, and he ‘s taken the company from an struggling start-up to industry giant. And, Spotify has just launched a new Audiobook platform - so excited about it. In the episode we talk about Audiobooks on Spotify, and how giving literally hundreds of millions of people one-click free access to basically every audiobook in the world is going to change the industry for authors, publishers and of course, readers and listeners. Daniel’s approach to entrepreneurship and building businesses - Daniel shares his frameworks for how entrepreneurs can think about adding value, the balance between thinking and action, and the 3 different types of advantage that different businesses can have, in terms of informational, analytical and behavioural advantages. And we talk also about Daniel’s personal productivity - as a ridiculously busy CEO of a huge public company worth tens of billions of dollars, how does he think about time management, focus, and work-life balance as it relates to balancing the running of his companies with being a father and a husband.

There's a lot of things human beings crave in life - happiness, knowledge, status, wealth, abundance - and most of us embark on seeking out this relentless pursuit of success without really knowing how to juggle all of our aspirations and goals in life. But what if I told you that there's a way to achieve all of these things and have them exist in harmony, no matter who you are, or where you start out in life? Today I'm joined by the genius mind who has done just that and is inspiring so many others to unlock their potential too. Steven Bartlett is one of the most brilliant entrepreneurs of our time, a best-selling author, investor and truly engaging speaker. As the founder of Social Chain and a number of other wildly successful companies he's reshaped digital marketing. He was the youngest ever Dragon on Dragons’ Den, and he's the host of the No.1 podcast Diary of a CEO. In the conversation we talk about his incredible backstory of how he went from a university drop out to a multimillion dollar entrepreneur and the fundamental principles he's learned along the way that have contributed to his success and are detailed in his new life-changing book 'Diary of a CEO - The 33 Laws of Business and Life'.

Imagine having so many clients, you had to turn them away. This is the foundation of most successful businesses - to have people lining up wanting to buy your product and do business with you. Our guest today, Daniel Priestley, knows how to turn that into a reality. The term Daniel uses to describe this situation is "oversubscribed". Daniel is the founder of Dent Global, a company that operates across four continents, assisting businesses to stand out, scale up and make a positive impact. Daniel's book "Oversubscribed" is one of my most highlighted books and is the playbook I follow when thinking about how to create a business that outstrips your competition. Daniel's also written other insightful books, like 'Entrepreneur Revolution,' 'Key Person of Influence,' and '24 Assets,' each one of them offering insights on how to thrive in the modern business landscape. In this episode we talk about all things entrepreneurship and how to make $10k - $1M per month.

Picture this: you're sitting at your desk, ready to conquer that important task that you’ve been meaning to get around. But somehow you find ourself falling into the rabbit hole of Youtube videos or with a sudden urge to clean your house. Yep, we’ve all been caught by that monster of procrastination.Although procrastination is such a common problem, we still have lots of misperceptions about it. We tend to think that procrastination is a time-management issue. But - as we’ll learn in today’s episode - procrastination is actually a little more complex.By understanding the psychology nature of what procrastination is and why we procrastinate, we might be in a better place to reduce or even overcome procrastination.My guest today is Dr. Fuschia Sirois, professor of psychology at Durham University. Before she came to the UK, Fuschia was a Canada Research Chair and the Co-ordinator of the multidisciplinary Psychological Health and Well-being Research cluster at Bishop’s University (2010-2015).Dr Fuschia's interest stretch from self-regulation — exploring how we manage our thoughts, emotions, and behaviors — to their impact on our health and wellbeing.Above all, Dr Fuschia is probably most well-known for her work on procrastination. Her recent book explores what procrastination is, why we procrastinate, and what we can do about it.What I really admire about about Fuschia is that she believes in the power of psychological science as a tool to improve lives, and she has an uncanny ability to communicate these complex ideas in a way that is both engaging and easily comprehensible. Her work's been features in many news outlets including The Washington Post, The New York Times, and the BBC.I hope you enjoy the conversation!Sponsored by Huel - go to https://www.huel.com/deepdive and with your first order you’ll get a free t-shirt and shaker.Sponsored by Trading 212 - download the Trading 212 app https://trading212.com/promocodes/ALI and use the promo code "ALI" after signing up and depositing to receive a random free share worth up to £100.

When it comes to building wealth and getting rich, a lot of us want a quick fix answer / that miracle thing that will make us a millionaire. But really there’s no secret formula to get rich quick and personal finance is actually pretty straightforward, but a lot of us tend to shy away from learning about how money really works and where it comes from because we find it boring or because it requires us to do that slightly scary thing of projecting 20 years ahead. So today we have a guest to help us simplify all things money and finance in a digestible way. Rob Dix is an investment fund adviser, co-presenter of one of the UK’s most popular business podcasts (The Property Podcast) which I’m a big fan of, and the author of four best-selling books about property investment. Rob’s most recent book The Price Of Money: How to Prosper in a Financial World That’s Rigged Against You, is the book he wished he had on the topic money growing up, because despite the fact humans spend their entire lives trying to earn more money very few of us understand how it works and the best way to use it.Sponsored by Huel - go to https://www.huel.com/deepdive and with your first order you’ll get a free t-shirt and shaker.Sponsored by Trading 212 - download the Trading 212 app https://trading212.com/promocodes/ALI and use the promo code "ALI" after signing up and depositing to receive a random free share worth up to £100.

Have you ever wondered how some people effortlessly attract success, abundance, and happiness into their lives? There’s one school of thought that suggests our beliefs and intentions have the power to shape our reality, so by manifesting positive thoughts we’re able to change our reality for the better. Some call this concept ‘manifestation’. Over the past few years, the word manifestation has got mixed reviews - sometimes seen as a transformative practice that has the power to change people’s lives, and sometimes seen as a bit new-age’y and mystical. Today I’m joined by Roxie Nafousi, who’s going to help demystify the conversation around manifestation and help us understand how we can use the practice to be more intentional about what we want in our future to make deliberate positive change in our lives. Roxie is a self-development coach, inspirational speaker, manifesting expert and 2 x Sunday Times Bestselling author. Her debut book MANIFEST: 7 Steps to Living Your Best Life has become a global success since it entered the market in January 2022, and is widely regarded as the must-have guide to manifestation. In the conversation we cover a lot of questions: what are the misconceptions around manifestation? Is there a “right way” and a “wrong way” to manifest? How much does manifesting differ from traditional goal setting? How much is manifestation about achieving something external vs developing internally? What’s the science? And what are some practical tips to start manifesting?Sponsored by Huel - go to https://www.huel.com/deepdive and with your first order you’ll get a free t-shirt and shaker.Sponsored by Trading 212 - download the Trading 212 app https://trading212.com/promocodes/ALI and use the promo code "ALI" after signing up and depositing to receive a random free share worth up to £100.

In a world where we’re always on, always attuned to the constant buzz of notifications and glued to the never ending scroll, it’s no wonder that overstimulation and burnout are on the rise. Globally, people have an of average 6 hours 58 minutes of screen time per day (according to the Average Screen Time Stats 2023) and when you look at an entire week that’s over 46hrs, almost two whole days a week, spent on devices - which is pretty mind blowing. But what kind of impact is this time spent on the digital hamster wheel having on our focus, motivation and overall health? How do we block out the noise and focus on what really matters to be happier and healthier people. Today I’m joined by Hector Hughes. Hector is the co-founder of Unplugged who provide digital detoxes at minimalist, off-grid cabins in nature across the UK to help the always-on, switch off. In the episode, we’ll talk about how Hector started his business after overcoming burnout, all things digital detox and how important it is to unplug in our increasingly digital dependent world, what the consequences are if we don’t and a few hacks for developing a healthier relationship with tech.

For a lot of us, navigating our future careers can feel like an uncertain and anxiety-inducing time. You might find yourself asking questions like: how do I know that I’m on the right path? Is my job truly fulfilling me? Am I using all my strengths and developing in my role? Do I really have to do this for the next 50 years of my working like? But among all this uncertainty you might be feeling, one thing is for certain - careers, as we’ve traditionally known them, are changing for the better. Gone are the days when a single career path and job ladder could define us for a lifetime. Instead, the world is moving towards a more exciting, fluid and non-linear model, where the focus is on talents over job titles and new possibilities over career plans — this is known as the squiggly career. And in this episode I’m here with Helen Tupper co-author of the No.1 Sunday Times Business Bestseller ‘The Squiggly Career: Ditch the Ladder, Discover Opportunity, Design Your Career’ to talk about how we can navigate this change and develop the skills to successfully traverse the ‘squiggly career’ and maximise our potential for growth and opportunity. Helen has held leadership roles at Microsoft, Virgin and BP and is now CEO of Amazing If, an award-winning career development company with a mission to make work better for everyone. Her love of learning has led her to study at Henley, Cranfield and Cass Business School. Helen is a trustee for the Working Families charity and a Fellow of The RSA and lives. Along with co-authoring her two books ‘The Squiggly Career’ and most recently ‘You Coach You’ with Sarah Ellis, they also host the No.1 Careers podcast.

From my experience working as a doctor, it’s very clear that we don’t treat mental health in the same way as physical health. And even though awareness about mental health has grown in the past decade or so, we still have a long way to go when it comes to understanding this topic and changing our attitudes towards mental health. Someone at the front of the campaign to change the conversation around mental health is Dr Alex George. Dr Alex is a TV doctor, best-selling author, and Youth Mental Health Ambassador to the government. Alex has become a well-known and respected figure amongst healthcare professionals in the UK, from his years as an A&E doctor, bringing the nation accessible and reassuring advice directly from the frontline throughout the pandemic. Alex is on a mission to improve mental health support for young people and has become prolific throughout the UK in his campaigning for Early Support Hubs and he’s recently published his latest book The Mind Manual: Mental Fitness Tools For Everyone - which we dive into during this episode. In the conversation, we talk about how to assess your mental health and understand the baseline that’s normal for you, we talk about how to build mental fitness and navigate feelings like anxiety and loneliness, and also discuss some of the ‘universal truths’ from Alex’s new book that everyone needs to remember. Enjoy :) Disclaimer - this conversation includes discussion around suicide.

My guest this week has an incredibly inspiring story. Codie Sanchez started her career as a journalist covering human trafficking, and was confronted with extreme violence and the worst of humanity on a daily basis. Realising that she didn’t want to be someone who, in her own words, had to ‘fight for a living’ she decided to take a hard pivot into finance. Since entering the world of finance, Codie became partner at private equity firm EEC, and built First Trust’s $1 billion+ AUM Latin America business. She’s also the co-founder of ‘Unconventional Acquisitions’ and the founder of ‘Contrarian Thinking’ who have a mission to bring more people into financial freedom. In the conversation we talk about how, just like Codie’s career, human beings don’t have linear paths, we talk about the question of whether you need periods of struggle in order to achieve wealth, happiness and success. As well as advice for women in the workplace and leadership and we finish by covering a handful of truths that will make you more money than any business degree. I hope you enjoy this conversation as much as I did.Sponsored by Huel - go to https://www.huel.com/deepdive and with your first order you’ll get a free t-shirt and shaker.Sponsored by Trading 212 - download the Trading 212 app https://trading212.com/promocodes/ALI and use the promo code "ALI" after signing up and depositing to receive a random free share worth up to £100.

Most of us know perfectionism as the relentless pursuit of flawlessness, our fatal flaw of having a constant need to meet impossibly high standards. It's a trait that many of us strive for, believing that it will lead to success and happiness. But what if I told you that this concept of perfectionism as we know it isn’t the full picture? And the badge of honour we think perfectionists wear is one big misconception. Today I’m joined by Professor Thomas Curran, an Assistant Professor in the Department of Psychological and Behavioural Science at the London School of Economics. With over a decade of experience, Professor Curran is a world leading expert on perfectionism. He has written for the Harvard Business Review, New Scientist, The Guardian, Telegraph and Wall Street Journal. In 2018, he gave a TEDMED talk which has over 3 million views and earlier this month he published his book The Perfection Trap: The Power of Good Enough in a world that always wants more’. In the conversation we talk about the paradoxical effects of perfectionism, how our perfectionistic traits stem from a cultural obsession rather than a personal flaw and shows what we can do as individuals to resist the modern-day pressure to be perfect - and how we can create a culture that celebrates the joys of imperfection.Sponsored by Huel - go to https://www.huel.com/deepdive and with your first order you’ll get a free t-shirt and shaker.Sponsored by Trading 212 - download the Trading 212 app https://trading212.com/promocodes/ALI and use the promo code "ALI" after signing up and depositing to receive a random free share worth up to £100.

You might be anxious about whether you’re on the right path (like whether you should stick to a conventional career or go travelling), you might be struggling to find your ‘true self’ (like what your purpose and passions are), or your might be struggling to balance your relationships with your 9-5 job. Let’s face it. The period of our 20s isn’t the easiest to navigate. Today I’m joined by Jemma Sbeghen. Jemma is the podcast host of The Psychology Of Your 20s, the podcast that talks through some of the big life challenges and changes of your 20s and what they mean for our psychology. Jemma has a degree in psychology and started her podcast during the covid lockdown where she applied psychological concepts she’d learned to the common problems people face in their 20s, including everything from imposter syndrome, to break ups and existential crisis’. In its first year, the podcast catapulted to Spotify’s top 10 podcast charts in the US, UK, and Australia. In the episode we talk about this feeling of uncertainty, often known as the quarter-life crisis, how to navigate these feelings filtering into different aspects of our life, as well as talking about the habits we can develop in our 20s to help us feel more in tune and at peace with our relationships, careers and identity.

Navigating the world of modern dating and romance is hard. Back in our parents’ and grandparents’ days, it was common for people to meet through family or mutual friends. Nowadays, things are a little more complicated. We’re much less likely to meet our potential partners organically. It’s pretty rare for people to meet through sports clubs, events, or just by hanging out with people who live in your local area. The rise of dating apps and websites means that our first encounter with our potential partners is likely to be through a screen - which comes with a lot of complexities. On top of that, the rise of social media encourages us compare our relationship with the seemingly perfect couples on Instagram - which often creates unrealistic expectations. So, how do we navigate this new landscape and find those meaningful connections that we crave and that add value to our lives? In this episode of deep dive, I spoke to renowned dating coach Matthew Hussey. Matthew Hussey has helped millions of people find love and build strong relationships for over a decade. His YouTube channel has nearly 3 million subscribers and his book, ‘Get the Guy’, is a New York Times bestseller.

Trigger warning: This episode contains discussion around sex and sexuality, sexual assault, rape and consent. Louise Perry is a journalist and author based in London. She is a columnist for UnHerd and the director of The Other Half, a new non-partisan feminist think tank, and the host of Maiden Mother Matriarch, a podcast about sexual politics. Last year, Louise released her first book ‘A Case Against The Sexual Revolution’ and in this episode we break down each chapter in turn. The conversation does cover some pretty controversial topics so it’s worth remembering that, as with all our other episodes, we recommend you take what you hear with a pinch of salt, and take the points that resonate most with you.

Carrie Rose is the 29 year old co-founder and CEO of leading search-first creative agency Rise at Seven. Rise at Seven was founded in 2019 and in its first year brought in $1.8 million in revenue from working with some of the biggest names in the business, including ASOS and PlayStation. Fast forward to year 3 and this became $9 million and she’s also expanding her to the US as well. Carrie is an absolute powerhouse in the PR industry and in the episode she offers so much valuable business advice from how to pitch, to getting investments and also shares what she’s learned about marketing and advertising while growing her business. We also talk about teenage Carrie, and the challenges she faced in her early life, growing up in a disadvantaged area as well as dealing with grief from a young age and how that played a role in her journey to become the CEO she is today. Carrie is probably the most down to earth, positive vibes person we’ve had on the podcast so far and I really hope you enjoy the conversation as much as I did.

If you’re a fan of YouTube you’ll probably be familiar with the name Mark Tilbury, but if you’re not, Mark is self-made millionaire and social media educator who teaches business, personal finance and investing to millions and especially the next generation. Mark has an incredibly inspiring story. He left school at 16 with no qualifications or money, and his first job was making wooden trash cans, and it paid less than $2 per hour. He took the risk to start his own business and 30 years later he is a 7-figure CEO. In the conversation we talk about all things entrepreneurship including how to start your first physical or online business, what it really means to think like an entrepreneur and the power of passive income.

Believe it or not, if you’ve been feeling like you just can’t bring yourself to focus, are constantly battling procrastination, or even struggling with low mood, it’s probably because you’re not looking after your gut. In this episode I sit down for a conversation with Sophie Medlin, one of the UK's leading experts on gut health. Sophie is a dietitian, chair of the British Dietetic Association and a lecturer at King's College London.

Liv Boeree is a World Series of Poker and European Poker Tour champion, and the only female player in history to win both a WSOP bracelet and an EPT event. Liv’s story is super interesting, because she actually has a degree in astrophysics and combined her science background and passion for games to get into the world of poker and win all these championships.These days Liv spends her time as a science communicator and games specialist, and focuses on educating others about how to apply scientific rational thinking techniques and things like game theory to the decisions we make in our everyday lives. Navigating through decisions in life can be a pretty difficult sometimes, but the single thing this conversation taught me is that, there’s a lot of principles we can steal from poker (like thinking processes and resilience strategies) to help us along the journey. In the conversation we talk about a whole bunch of things and by the end of the episode you’ll learn:Game Theory: How lessons from poker can help you build resilience, and make better decisions for your life.Effective Altruism: How humans can become better philanthropists by using logic and reason to figure out the most high expected value thing we can do to solve the worlds most pressing problems.Safe AI Development - Why AI is the most high-stakes creation by humans to date and what their implications are for our future.Enjoy!Liv Boeree: Poker Rules For Life, Game Theory, AI & Effective AltruismSponsored by Huel - go to https://www.huel.com/deepdive and with your first order you’ll get a free t-shirt and shaker.Sponsored by Trading 212 - download the Trading 212 app https://trading212.com/promocodes/ALI and use the promo code "ALI" after signing up and depositing to receive a random free share worth up to £100.
