E194 | The Values Audit That Buys You More Time, Money and Fulfilment

Many high performers feel busy but unfulfilled, not because they lack discipline or ambition, but because their daily actions are out of alignment with their values. In this episode of The Kirk Miller Podcast, Kirk breaks down a simple values audit to help you identify what truly matters, assess where your time and energy are going, and make better decisions that create more fulfilment, clarity, and momentum. Kirk explains why misaligned values lead to burnout, frustration, and emotional fatigue, even when life looks successful on the surface, and how small changes in your calendar and priorities can dramatically improve how you feel and perform. In this episode, Kirk covers: Why values drive fulfilment, energy, and long-term success How to identify your true core values (not the ones you think you should have) How to audit your calendar to reveal misalignment Why living out of alignment leads to burnout and dissatisfaction How to make practical changes that buy back time and clarity For more information on what was discussed in this episode head to https://kirkmiller.co.uk/programme/ The Kirk Miller Podcast is the show for business leaders and peak performers to get into the best physical and mental shape of their lives and unleash from within confidence they never thought possible.

On this episode of The Kirk Miller Podcast, Kirk breaks down why the classic "12-week transformation" model often creates impressive short-term change… and then collapses the moment real life kicks back in. If you've ever got in great shape for a holiday, wedding, or photos — only to end up back where you started weeks later — this is for you. In this episode, Kirk covers: The quick-fix illusion — why short deadlines can create results, but rarely create lasting change The real goal — not "getting in shape fast," but learning how to stay in shape year-round Why most people rebound after a 12-week plan ends (and why it's not a willpower problem) The missing skill: managing food, training, and lifestyle across different seasons of life Why habits can start quickly… but rarely become automatic inside 12 weeks The social reality — restaurants, travel, holidays, stress, late nights, and how these derail most "plans" The identity gap — when your body changes faster than your mindset, old habits pull you back Motivation vs discipline — why motivation gets the results, but discipline keeps them Environment and support — why your surroundings and peer group decide your standards more than your plan does You can make huge progress in 12 weeks. But if the underlying behaviours and identity that created the problem haven't been addressed, you're just renting results — not earning change.

In this episode of The Kirk Miller Podcast, Kirk breaks down a simple, logical framework for setting goals that actually translate into consistent action and long-term results.
