Episode Details

In this episode Paul chats with Lisa Broderick, entrepreneur, leadership advisor, and co-author of Permanence: Become the Person You Want to Be and Stay That Way alongside Marshall Goldsmith.

The conversation explores why so many successful entrepreneurs and leaders eventually feel disconnected from themselves, despite achieving the success they once believed would fulfil them. Lisa shares insights from decades of leadership coaching and research, explaining how success often causes people to drift away from the person they originally intended to become.

Paul and Lisa dive into the idea of “permanence” — not as perfection, but as a daily practice of staying aligned with your values, intentions, and the life you actually want to live. They unpack the power of awareness, the danger of unconscious success, and the surprisingly simple daily question framework that has helped leaders create meaningful personal transformation. The conversation touches on happiness, relationships, identity, leadership, self-awareness, accountability, and how small daily shifts can radically change the trajectory of your life.

Lisa Broderick is an entrepreneur, executive coach, leadership advisor, and co-author of Permanence: Become the Person You Want to Be and Stay That Way with Marshall Goldsmith.
