Chris Liddle on Taking Initiative, Taking Risks, and Going for It

Author: Chris Liddle July 18, 2022 Duration: 22:40

Throughout the course of The Lifestyle Chase, this has likely been the least frequent I’ve ever published episodes for the show.So I wanted to release this short and sweet solo episode to explain a little bit of the “behind the scenes”.In short, I’ve been working really hard for the entirety of 2022 and have no plans to slow down the momentum.Some of my priorities will shift towards making time for connecting with friends and family rather than hustling for the next client or trying to cover a bill.

With that said, if you listen to this episode, and want to work with me, head to www.invigoratetraining.com or connect with me on IG https://www.instagram.com/christianliddle/.My hope is that as you listen to my progress over the years, it will give you insight that it’s not all sunshine and rainbows for podcast hosts, but that sticking to something long term will inevitably set you apart and it will pay off.

To give the show a BOOST on the chart, please leave 5 stars on the Spotify app, rate 5 stars and leave a review on the Apple Podcast app, and share this episode in your IG story on social media.Thanks for listening and we will catch you for the next one!

Chasing Common Ground: Lifestyle Conversations with Chris Liddle is a space for thoughtful dialogue that lives between categories. Host Chris Liddle believes meaningful progress comes from connecting ideas across the usual boundaries of education, culture, and self-improvement. Each episode, whether a solo reflection or a conversation with a guest, is built on a simple, powerful question: where can we find shared understanding? This isn't about quick fixes or passive listening. It's a purpose-driven exploration of the habits, philosophies, and societal shifts that shape our daily lives. The aim is to uncover practical insights and nuanced perspectives that resonate, helping you move forward incrementally but intentionally. You'll hear discussions that feel like a good, meandering talk with a curious friend-one that leaves you with something to chew on, not just consume. The podcast deliberately avoids easy labels, weaving together threads from personal development, cultural commentary, and societal observation to examine what a considered life can look like. It’s an ongoing series for anyone tired of echo chambers and interested in the subtle art of building a better year, and a better self, through conversation. Tune in for a consistently engaging mix of voices and topics that all circle back to that essential chase for common ground.
