James Dean

Hi, I’m James Dean — Life Coach, Podcast Host, and Curious Human.

I’m the host of What’s Important to You? — a podcast dedicated to real, reflective conversations that uncover the stories, values, and breakthroughs that shape how we live, lead, and grow.

With a background in corporate life, personal development, and endurance sports (including Ironman training with three Labradors in tow), I’m deeply passionate about helping people reconnect with what matters most.

Each week on the show, I sit down with remarkable guests — coaches, creatives, entrepreneurs, and change-makers — to explore questions like:
What drives you? What have you overcome? And what are you learning now?

It’s not just a podcast — it’s a space for growth, clarity, and meaningful connection.

Whether you’re in transition, looking for inspiration, or just love a good story with soul, you’re in the right place.
