In this episode of the get out of your own way podcast, I'm sharing with you a conversation I had with the wonderful Graham Seldon the founder of the professional services executive search firm Seldon Rosser.

We talked together on his podcast Deep CV Diving about my career, the highs the lows, the lessons and the blessings. You'll learn about me as a person. The approach I take, what matters to me, the opportunities that I was afforded and the challenges that I faced as my life was imploding around me.

I discuss the decisions I took to recreate my life in a way that I love and how I've always been able to get out of my own way. Whilst it doesn't come easy, it's what happens when you get intentional about who you are and what you stand for.

I hope you enjoy this conversation as I explain how I got out of my own way.

Getting out of your own way is overcoming what stands between you and where you want to be. The life you want to be living, the job you want to have.

In this episode I talk with Graham Seldon, founder of professional services executive search firm Seldon Rosser.

Over Graham's 25 years career, he's learnt a lot about people who get in their own way. He’s helped candidates to own their career situation, and see things differently.

We also explore Graham's personal experiences, including losing a parent at a very young age, coming out as a gay man, understanding, exploring and overcoming his limiting beliefs, and how coaching and therapy has propelled his personal happiness and professional success.

One of my favourite things that Graham shares is that the answer is already inside, you just need to find it. We talk about mindset, perspective, and personal responsibility. How we all paint pictures, the value of self-reflection, how to bring your authentic self to work. We also talk about how he has successfully managed alcohol addiction, and today runs a thriving global professional services executive search firm.

Let's find out how Graham got out of his own way.

He is also the founder and chair of the Care Leavers Network that advocates for children in care and supports children coming out of care, and trains professionals in the care system.

Wayne talks about his experience spending most of his childhood in foster and residential care. We discuss how with self belief and good people supporting you, no future is set in stone, pages are blank, and you can make the story how you want it to be.
