The Witch of Wall Street: Mindset & Strategy for Real Wealth – with Laura Tynan #119
What does it really take to achieve financial freedom? Is it strategy alone, or does your money story matter just as much? In this episode of The Inner Entrepreneur Podcast, Paul sits down with Laura Tynan – known as The Witch of Wall Street – to explore the powerful intersection of wealth creation and personal transformation. Laura shares her journey from corporate finance to founding a movement that blends practical money strategies with deep mindset work. We dive into: Why financial empowerment requires both strategy and mindset. The “ostrich effect” – why most people avoid looking at their finances. Simple steps to take control of your money (even if you’ve been ignoring it). How fear, scarcity, and inherited money stories silently sabotage wealth. Why wealthy people often still feel poor — and how to heal self-worth. The science and practice of intentional creation (beyond “woo-woo” manifestation). How to pass on a healthy money mindset to the next generation. The power of persistence, focus, and belief in creating long-term success. This is a grounded, practical, and inspiring conversation about building not just wealth in your bank account — but richness in your life.

From Northern Ireland’s Conflicts to a Life of Purpose - The Seamus Fox Story #117
In this episode of The Inner Entrepreneur, Paul Ryan sits down with Seamus Fox — speaker, coach, and mentor to CEOs, entrepreneurs, and high achievers. This is a story of transformation: from growing up in Northern Ireland during the Troubles, to hitting rock bottom after a near-fatal car crash, to rebuilding his life through fitness, values-based living, and coaching. Through his journey, Seamus has discovered that the key to lasting change isn’t motivation or willpower — it’s aligning your life with your highest values. He shares how crisis can become a blessing, why burnout is really a sign of misalignment, and how entrepreneurs can find renewed purpose and energy by living authentically. What You’ll Learn in This Episode The Power of Environment: How growing up in conflict and scarcity shaped Seamus Rock Bottom as a Turning Point: The car crash that became the wake-up call for change. Fitness as a Path to Purpose: How bodybuilding and training gave Seamus focus, discipline, and direction. Values Over Motivation: Why most people fail to stick with habits and how linking goals to core values creates lasting change. Burnout & Misalignment: How doing low-value work drains us, and how to shift towards what energizes us. The Wisdom in Crisis: Seeing challenges as blessings that redirect us to our true path. Energy as a Compass: How to tell if you’re living in alignment with your values by how you feel. Practical Tools: How to uncover your values, re-frame your perspective, and start living more authentically. Memorable Quotes “Wisdom is the instantaneous recognition that a crisis is a blessing.” “Not everybody values health and fitness — we all have a unique fingerprint of values.” “Burnout doesn’t come from doing too much. It comes from doing what’s low in your values.” “When you’re aligned with your highest values, your energy goes up. When you’re not, it drops.” “Stop forcing habits. Start linking them to what you truly care about.” Links & Resources Connect with Seamus Fox: seamusfox.com Recommended Book: The Breakthrough Experience by Dr. John DeMartini Learn more about Paul Ryan and The Inner Entrepreneur: The Onehourceo.com Episode Takeaways Your environment shapes you — but you can re-frame even difficult beginnings into sources of strength.
