Expansive transforms 250 episodes from the award-winning The Expansive podcast into 52 weekly provocations that will rewire how you think about possibility, influence, and personal transformation.

John Sanei and Erik Kruger have spent years challenging conventional wisdom across global stages, boardrooms, and bestselling books. Now, they’ve distilled their most powerful insights into essays that don’t just inform but instigate change.

Each piece is crafted to shake loose old thinking patterns and reveal blind spots you didn’t know you had about your life, leadership, and work.

This book operates at the intersection of strategy and soul, where ambition meets purpose. It’s for leaders and changemakers who are ready to transform not just their immediate world, but their entire approach to what’s possible. Whether used as a personal guide or as a powerful tool for weekly team reflections, each essay sparks conversations that matter.

Fifty-two opportunities for growth and advancement await you in these pages.

Are you ready to be expansive?

Erik Kruger is a high-performance coach and founder of the Mental Performance Lab. He writes an email early each morning which he sends to many thousands of subscribers. The aim of his daily message is to inspire people, asking them to reflect and act. Packed with more than 160 thoughtful reflections on what it takes to live a life of action and not words, Acta Non Verba’s purpose is to get people moving, creating, and generating an unstoppable drive in both their business and personal journeys.

The words Acta Non Verba is the sign-off Erik uses in all his emails. This simple Latin phrase, meaning ‘Actions Not Words’, has started a movement. It’s a plea; a call to create your life instead of living it by default, a call to show your intentions instead of merely speaking about them. It’s a call to live to your fullest potential. This is not a book to read from cover to cover, in one sitting. Each day there is a new chapter waiting to be read. Put this book on your bedside table, and read a new chapter with your first cup of coffee every morning. Each message is short so you can read it quickly, in the moment, and then reflect and act on it for the entire day. It’s a book that demands action.

ACTIONS, NOT WORDS

Remember, it’s not about the words on these pages; it’s about what you do with them.

If you are not relentlessly fixated with relevance today, you will be ruthlessly annihilated by irrelevance tomorrow.

How relevant are you? Is your relevance under threat?

In a world where everything is changing before our eyes, nothing matters more than your ability to stay relentlessly relevant. Relentless Relevance is your must-read guide to thriving in chaos. Part business blueprint, part manifesto for forward-thinkers, this compelling book draws from insights in technology, culture, and human behaviour to empower individuals and organisations to rewrite their stories. Building on the provocative ideas of his bestselling book Legacide, Richard Mulholland makes a powerful case for abandoning legacy thinking. With sharp wit and actionable wisdom, he challenges you to reimagine the future and embrace the reinvention necessary to remain indispensable.

"I found myself asking the question, ‘Am I still relevant?’ What I discovered is that if you find yourself asking the question, the answer is no. Mostly because it’s the wrong question. The right question is, ‘What can I do today to stay relevant?’ You see, relevance is not a milestone anymore; it’s the path that we travel." – Richard Mulholland

Be prepared to shift from comfort to curiosity.

You cannot escape threats. Threats to your business, your relationships, your potential, your health. In fact, everything you love is being threatened. The question is: What will you do about it?

How you learn to respond to threats determines the trajectory of your life. If you respond with a lack of force, energy and will, you will most likely end up in a familiar place – survival mode. Many of us know this space all too well. Fortunately, there is another way.

In Dangerous, international speaker and author, Erik Kruger, reveals that when faced with a threat there is only one thing you can do: LEAN IN AND BECOME DANGEROUS. Through short, concise nuggets of insights drawn from neuroscience, coaching philosophies and working with exceptional business leaders, Erik reveals how you can become a threat to that which threatens you. He offers the tools to embrace courage, intention, and the ability to recalibrate how you think, feel, and act. To rise to the level of your challenges and then beyond.

This book is for anyone who wants to become effective against the threats in their life. If you are interested in not only embracing the challenges and obstacles that life places in your path, but in seeing them for what they really are, then welcome to the journey.

Dangerous is an invitation to becoming better, stronger, and faster. TO BECOME DANGEROUS.
