They Didn’t Want Big Goals. They Wanted Their Life Back

Most business events promise clarity, big goals, and bold plans.

This one did too.

But something unexpected happened.

Instead of talking about five-year visions or aggressive growth targets, people kept coming back to small things. Walking the dog more. Finishing work earlier. Feeling less permanently behind.

Hi, I'm Mike Fox, host of this podcast, "Lone Wolf Unleashed."

In this episode, I’m unpacking what actually happened at my first Freedom Forward workshop. The wins, the nerves, the moments I didn’t expect, and the realisation that stopped me mid-session.

Everyone left with a roadmap.

Almost no one knew how to take the first step.

We talk about why “big goals” often stall real progress, why implementation is the hardest part of running a business, and what busy business owners actually need when time, energy, and focus are already stretched thin.

This isn’t a highlight reel.

It’s a reflection on what people really want from their business and what gets in the way of making change stick.

If you’ve ever felt like you’ve done the planning but still can’t move forward, this one will land close to home.

And yes, I’ll also explain what I’m building next, why I’m doing it this way, and why I’d rather you get results than over-commit to something you don’t need.

Take a breath.

This one’s about slowing down to move forward.
