MM4 Why failing is an essential and key friend!
Today I share my thoughts on "beginnings" and their close but common link to "failing". I think the fear of failing, and the emotions associated with 'new beginnings' often prevent people from getting started A LOT more than they should. I share some insights into how we can reframe our understanding and connection to these feelings, and kick beginnings in the butt! Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/thebalancetheory.

Antoinette Lattouf on a miracle story with a curious realisation
Today I am honoured to have chatted with the wonderful Antoinette Lattouf. We start with an interesting take on balance, specifically when it comes to the representation and cultural inequality within our current monolithic media landscape. The conversation then turns super raw and heart felt as Antoinette shares her challenges with balance, especially when it came to becoming a parent! Lastly we discuss a bit of a miracle story that said more about the people receiving the news than it did about what actually happened to her. An awesome chat, an incredible woman.

MM3 Reframing goals & actually sticking to them
Today I dive into Outcome Vs Process Goals. As we don't have control of the outcome most of the time, we're already setting ourselves up for failure by framing a goal in this way. Listen in as I talk about goals as process focused, and how this can profoundly impact your mindset & ability to smash the bars you set for yourself! Let's get Balanced.

Todd on having a 'timeline' & what is Ayahuasca?!

Tune in as we discuss the dangers that can come with rigid 'timelines' and how Todd has experienced this in his own life. I also had a ball diving into Todd's experience in the Amazon, and hearing him share his incredible personal & spiritual transformation - if you have no idea what Ayahuasca is (or how to pronounce it), then buckle up and prepare to be mind blown.I hope you enjoy it as much as I did!

MM2 Build a reputation with yourself 🤝
Are you addicted (or have been) to other people’s approval? If your answer is yes, you are not alone! BUT, to use this as a metric for how you’re doing and going, is a bit of a slippery slope!
