Wow I feel like my brain has been hijacked by a productivity god. I feel like my brain chemistry has been permanently altered. It currently feels like the easiest thing in the world to just get s**t done because I am constantly thinking if I do this now it will make it easier to achieve my goal. My goal doesn’t feel overwhelming like it did. At that point I wanted it to happen but I felt so lost. You have made starting feel like the easiest thing and I don’t feel overwhelmed I just feel in total control. This whole process has changed how I feel about how I am living my life in such a positive way. It is like I can achieve anything.

What people are saying about The One Year Shift
Meet your host
Martha is the founder of Martha Brook, Business Secrets Club, and the brain behind The One Year Shift.
Having studied neuroscience at Cambridge University and built two brands from the ground up, Martha has long wondered why some people never achieve their goals, despite having every planner and strategy available. She realised that the answer lay in understanding how the brain actually works.
The One Year Shift is everything Martha has learned about the science of achievement, distilled into a step-by-step system that helps you achieve what’s always been out of reach, understand the hidden patterns that hold you back and build daily habits that actually stick.

Turn out I'm not broken!I have just finished The One Year Shift course and I can honestly say this is going to be a game changer for me. I embarked on a career change in March 2025 and finally found something that set my soul on fire, something that reignited a spark inside of me that I’ve been searching for, for years. With that, you’d imagine that I’d now be up and running and living my dream … but no, a year later and I’ve done absolutely nothing to get to there. Why you ask? Well I couldn’t tell you that, until now! Turns out my brain needs a little extra help in putting the wheels in motion and The One Year Shift is exactly that. The course, led by Martha, is a step-by-step guide that breaks down literally everything you need to help you firstly, get to the bottom of what it is you want and secondly, how to go about it. There were so many ‘ahhh’ moments for me when working my way through the modules. Neuroscience to help me understand why I am the way I am, tools to help me overcome my mental blocks and a yearly plan broken down into bite size, completely manageable pieces that immediately remove the overwhelm and replaces the ‘I don’t know where to begin’ with ‘I know exactly what I have to do’. Martha is like ‘a warm cup of tea on a cold morning’ or ‘that comforting hug that you didn’t know you needed’. She empathetically guides you through the whole process and seems to understand everything my brain is without even knowing me. If you’re feeling overwhelmed, frustrated, stuck, broken, fed up with your own nonsense and procrastination or if you just need a little help to get you back on track, then I suggest you give The One Year Shift a go.
The One Year Shift is perfect for you if...
You want to achieve something you’ve been struggling to progress with
You're brilliant at starting things but struggle to finish them
You feel ‘stuck’ and want to find some purpose and direction again
You have a business idea you want to finally launch or grow
You have a book you’ve been meaning to write
You have a health or fitness goal that never seems to stick
You want to change career but don't know how to start
You want to make a lifestyle change or feel more in control of your life
You feel like your brain is working against you, not with you
"Martha, you astound me - truly. I'm someone who has battled ADHD, chronic procrastination and profound self-doubt and self-sabotage all my life, so that even the mere thought of setting and planning out goals would bring me out in hives! But yet, in one long weekend with The One Year Shift, I've done what I never before thought possible: I've actually got out of my own way and MADE A PLAN. I feel you've broken down my walls and let me see what's on the other side of my potential. I can't thank you enough for what you've helped me achieve already, and for the first time in many years I'm excited about what the future holds for me."

I am a bit of a self help addict. Over the last few years I've read so many books and listened to a million podcasts but nothing has inspired me and more importantly made me take action more than The One Year Shift. The journal is a must too, a place to keep everything and have it ready for your goal.

I went in expecting another typical self-development course, but it turned out to be something much deeper. It helped me understand why I’ve been stuck for so long — not because I’m lazy, but because of patterns and fear I hadn’t recognised before. After nearly three years of working to launch my business, I finally feel like I have a clear path forward.

After completing the first module of The One Year Shift, something shifted in me almost immediately. In the first 30 minutes alone I made more progress on this idea than I had in the last five years. I’d been sitting on the dream for so long but had absolutely no clue where to start. Suddenly it felt clear and manageable.
