How Your Biggest Asset is Getting in the Way of Your Success with Kristine Kolzing

July 21, 2020 06:00 - 27 minutes - 25.4 MB

We all hold beliefs that shape the decisions we make every single day.  As young children, our beliefs are internalised, quietly forming the way we see ourselves and the way we interact with the world.  But what if those beliefs aren’t serving you anymore? What if they’re simply not true? Are you believing something to be true that is limiting your potential and holding you back from being aligned with your true self? For most of us, the answer is yes. Perhaps it was something someone told...

How To Deal With Change

May 05, 2020 09:00 - 9 minutes - 12.8 MB

I feel like for the longest time, I was really resisting change. On the surface, I may have seemed like I was relaxed, going with the flow and able to adapt, but on the inside I needed to feel in control. I needed to feel like I knew what was coming next and that I had a plan. During this ever-changing time that we’re currently living through, I’ve very drastically felt that all that I was holding onto, was forced to break away. And that has been very uncomfortable. Yes, change is uncomfort...

In a world where so much is out of your control, it’s all too easy to find yourself in a place of stress and anxiety.

April 06, 2020 08:00 - 44 minutes - 102 MB

Take stock for a moment and think about what your community looks like.  Who are the people you really do life with? Are you surrounded by people who encourage you, challenge you and share your passions? You might already be blessed with a collection of like minded souls around you, or perhaps, you might still be searching for that sense of community, that sense of belonging that is inherent in the human psyche. No woman is an island. You can’t walk through life and achieve success wit...

How To Boost Your Impact Through Servant Leadership with Alexis Dean

March 24, 2020 08:00 - 43 minutes - 100 MB

The value of a human being can never be underestimated.  Imagine what it would be like to go to work and really be seen, really be understood and valued as an individual with purpose, not just as an employee.  What if you could run your business powered by a team of people who invest their heart and soul into what you do because they feel empowered to be all they can be? If we think of leadership as being at the top of the ladder, it can quickly lead to a very isolating and emotionally dema...

Does Saying No Make You a Bad Person with Paul Baranowski

March 10, 2020 08:00 - 38 minutes - 87.4 MB

You are valuable. Your life is valuable and how you choose to spend your time is crucial to living the life you desire. Time is the most precious resource you have. It's the only element you can never buy more of, or get back, no matter your wealth. Likewise, no amount of wealth or social status escalates the value of anyone else’s time over your own. What is under your control is how you use the time you are given. Sometimes, to protect our cherished time, it becomes necessary to set bound...

Putting a price tag on your product or service can be a daunting task for any entrepreneur. “How much is too much? Don’t I have to be competitive? Am I really worth that much?”.

Dealing with Overwhelm at Work with Rachel Kelly

February 11, 2020 09:00 - 28 minutes - 66 MB

With all the incredible advances in technology comes a never-ending struggle to tend to your endless notifications. In the workplace, especially the freelancing and entrepreneur arena, this translates to being reachable 24-7 and raises expectations of clients to near unrealistic levels. If you’re a client-centred service you might have experienced personal sacrifice to satisfy these demands. This comes at the cost of mental health and manifests as worker burnout. Burnout at work is a preval...

January 28, 2020 10:00 - 36 minutes - 83.6 MB

Running your business can be overwhelming. The workload is constantly growing, along with the jumbled to-do lists, projects and calendars. You’re flooded with emails and messages, not to mention all the social media pings. You love what you do, but there are distractions everywhere and it’s hard to feel productive.

November 26, 2019 11:00 - 53 minutes - 123 MB

How have you added value to someone’s life today? Whether it be a friend, a colleague, or a client, have you provided them with something that cost you nothing, but provided value to their life in some way. This is a noble goal. To feel like you have information to share and you can be of service to others, you first have to look inwards and assess where your strengths are. Can you be of service to others in a meaningful way? Honestly, no matter what your skillset, there is always someone th...

How Poor Quality Sleep Affects Your Mental and Physical Health with Shane Heath

How much coffee, is too much? The answer is remarkably different for everyone as I’m sure you’re aware.  But hey, I’m not here to discuss the ins and outs of coffee consumption. That would most likely put you to sleep regardless of whether you’ve just had a cup of coffee yourself.

Shane Heath has been interested in healt...

October 29, 2019 09:00 - 48 minutes - 44.3 MB

Are you scared to get into your own head? Too worried about what you’re going to find in there? Instead of sitting with your thoughts and being mindful when you’re alone, you reach for your phone, your headphones, a book. Any distraction that you can find to stop yourself from having to spend a little time within yourself. Well you know what, there’s probably a big ol’ elephant up in there, and if you don’t take the time to deal with it, then how do you expect to really grow? At the recent ...

It's Not About Me, It's About Mwe with Dr. Dan Siegel

October 01, 2019 10:00 - 1 hour - 58.7 MB

Meditation is such a trendy thing to do these days that it is not only a staple practice for those of us in the wellness industry, but for the mainstream medical community too. In fact, it’s this intersectionality between the east and west that I find so fascinating. Allowing yourself to be still and focus only on the here and now, is definitely no easy task, but with practice, you really do start to see a shift in your emotional state. Your focus is better, your mental state is calmer and a...

Finding The Guru Within with Erin Doppelt

September 17, 2019 10:00 - 43 minutes - 39.9 MB

Think about this for a minute with me. If you had to pick one person to follow and learn from every day, who would that person be?

What’s holding you back from the things you want to achieve in life? When you really sit down and think about it, breathe for a moment and think about that little niggle, that thought that keeps popping into your head, what is it that’s stopping you from doing that thing?

August 20, 2019 04:00 - 1 hour - 55.8 MB

When you first finish high school, it’s common to feel the need to go and make something of your life right away. University is the obvious and most logical choice, so you go ahead and start a degree without really thinking about what it is you want to do, or what your true passion is.You finish the degree, get the job and start climbing the corporate ladder.

Feeling Grateful For Every Moment with Dr Darren Weissman

August 06, 2019 04:00 - 39 minutes - 36 MB

Sometimes when I’m sitting at my desk and working away, I start to feel tense. Really tense. I pause and wonder why this anxiety is creeping in and when I stop to assess my body, I realise that my shoulders are scrunched up around my neck, I’m slouching and I’m clenching my jaw. My mind has wandered and I’ve been taken to a place I don’t like. I take a breath, recenter myself and start to feel the tension drifting away. This is a constant practice. To keep yourself engaged with your physic...

There are bound to be moments in our lives where we think, “What is the point of all this?” We’re stuck in a rut of going through the motions, the days turn into weeks and months, and we get a little lost.

May 29, 2019 04:00 - 47 minutes - 43.8 MB

Our fast-paced lives create so many opportunities for addiction to rear its ugly head. It can be difficult to recognize when we need to address it, or what the problem even is.
