A Bit Of A Boost
Welcome to the A Bit Of A Boost Burnout Series! This is a topic I’ve explored on the podcast before, and one that comes up regularly in coaching sessions, workshops and conversations with high performing professionals. What’s become clear is that it doesn’t just suddenly hit you. It creeps up, gets normalised and isn’t always easy to spot until it’s too late. In this series I’m sharing real conversations with people who’ve experienced burnout firsthand. Not the theories or frameworks, but the personal stories of what happened. How it felt, what...

6 Levels of Thinking - a framework for more rapid and permanent change
A Bit Of A Boost
We're kicking off the 2026 podcast episodes with this insight to the 6 different levels of thinking. When we set goals, most of us consider just the ONE level: what BEHAVIOURS do I need to change? This is important, but it's not the only level we need to consider if we want more rapid and permanent change. I first came across the 6 Logical Levels when I was stydying for my NLP practioners course, and have used it regularly since then. In this short episode I will walk you through all 6 levels - environment, behaviours, capabilities, beliefs & values, identity...

16 end-of-year questions to ask yourself
A Bit Of A Boost
In this final episode of 2025 I share 16 questions that will help you extract more of the lessons from the last 12 months, and get clear on what is most important for the next 12. These are the exact questions I sat down to answer a couple of weeks ago as part of my traditional annual review. I looked at 4 areas: 1) The successes from the 205 2) The setbacks 3) What I need to amplify or release for 2026 4) The goals, mission and objectives for the year ahead Whether you just think through your answers to these 16 questions as you listen to this episode, or spend some time writing them...
info_outlineHello and welcome to A Bit Of A Boost with me, George Anderson
I’m a wellbeing and performance coach, speaker and author and this podcast brings together guest experts, inspirational stories and ideas that I hope will you a bit of a boost.
Today’s guest on the podcast is performance and resilience expert Charlie Cannon.
Charlie is a coach, speaker and author who I truly admire for the way he blends his personal story with lessons and simple frameworks.
I was keen to get him on the podcast because every time we speak we always end up having really interesting discussions so I’m delighted to bring you a flavour of some of that today.
We talk about how to cultivate resilience through self-awareness and what it really means to be able to adapt to change.
Charlie’s own story is fascinating and inspiring and I ask him about how his own perspectives have developed over time.
With his background as a personal trainer we were always going to share similar philosophies around the connection between resilience, mindset and performance, and physical wellbeing.
So it was good to swap stories and experiences of sharing these messages with people over a number of years.
Our conversation takes us all over the place, including into the territory of values and purpose which to me are the foundation of resilience.
Charlie has the kind of energy that you can really feel when you listen to him, so I know that today’s episode will give you a bit of a boost!
