In this episode of Unleashing Your Great Work, Amanda sits down with Robin J. Emdon, host of the Goal Busters Podcast and creator of Get Resultsology: The Science of Getting Stuff Done.
Robin shares his personal journey from selling souvenirs in a family business, to training with Tony Robbins, to a face-palm realization that chronic procrastination had cost him years of momentum. What began as a personal struggle became a deep dive into the science of procrastination, leading to his system for helping solopreneurs achieve up to 33% more of their goals, without burning out.
You’ll learn:
- The difference between occasional and chronic procrastination
- How procrastination erodes self-trust and confidence
- Why awareness is the first step to change
- How brain science (limbic system vs. prefrontal cortex) shapes our productivity
- Why external accountability is the hidden key to lasting momentum

BIO:
Robin J. Emdon, aka The Procrastination Slayer, is the creator of GetResultsology® – The Science of Getting Stuff Done! and host of the GoalBusters podcast (100+ episodes). His journey from chronic procrastinator to accountability coach began with a face-palm moment in 2019: despite being a trained life coach, it had taken him ten years to finish a six-year home-study degree — stalled by years of procrastination. That embarrassing realization sparked a three-year deep dive into academic studies and science-backed books on the topic.
Based in South Devon, England, Robin now helps solopreneurs, creatives, and independent professionals achieve up to 33% more of their goals through brain-based strategies, accountability, and his momentum formula: Do it today. Profit tomorrow. Repeat!
