Ryan Hartley is Chief Heart Officer at Always Better Than Yesterday (ABTY), which exists to help develop heart-centred leaders, teams, organisations and communities to reach their potential and make a positive impact on the world. ABTY is a heart-led organisation built on the belief that real leadership is the act of putting your own needs aside to serve others. ABTY shares this philosophy through coaching a heart-centred model and developing courses to lead its clients from the heart to how we think and make decisions through how we serve people and onward to how we leave a positive impact on our communities.
In this episode John and Ryan talk about how he came to be a coach, the definition and modern placement of the word ‘love’, the modern absence of heart-sensitive men in the workplace, his relationship problems, finding faith, love languages, self-care and self-love.

BEST MOMENTS
‘I guess I just describe myself as a curious human being. When I was a kid I must have watched all of the serial killer profiles. It led me to want to know more about people. I’ve always been curious about his topic of psychology.’ – Ryan
‘In a lot of cases it seemed like following orders for the sake of following orders and that didn’t sit with me very well either. Tell me about that and how it may have impacted on you.’ – John
‘I think that is what a masculine man when he has love in his heart is willing to do. He is honourable, he is noble, he will create safety for those around him and he will be willing to serve and sacrifice himself should he be required to.’ – Ryan
‘Isn’t it funny that we don’t say “I love you with all of my mind”? So I’ve come to understand that emotion and love is deeper than thinking. I can’t force myself to think I love you. I can’t force myself to think that I value the company values.’ – Ryan
‘The mind is never supposed to be the leader. The mind is always supposed to be the servant. It is the heart that leads the way.’ – Ryan
‘The minute we wake up someone wants something from us. So we have to factor in some time, particularly as men and as dads, and in doing so realise that other people get a better version of us.’ – Ryan
‘That’s the problem with human beings, they’re so conditional. When we try to receive love from another human being it's generally conditional and yet self love and acceptance needs to be unconditional.’ – Ryan
