We will learn: How belonging creates healing How spiritual development changes your brain The five stages of post-traumatic growth that turn our pain into power Why do some people seem to bounce back from life's hardest blows, while others stay down?Sometimes, you might be the one who can't seem to find your footing after a struggle. And if you're actively denying your pain or comparing it to others, thinking, "What I went through isn't that bad; I shouldn't be feeling this way," you're going to miss the lesson.Instead, if you can be honest and say, "This is breaking me. What is the lesson here?" and dive deep into that pain to uncover the growth beneath, you're going to change the way you experience your life.Our guest today, Edith Shiro, a clinical psychologist and the author of "The Unexpected Gift of Trauma: The Path to Post-Traumatic Growth." Edith is here to teach us how to transform our suffering into our superpower. She'll share insights from her book and her clinical experience, helping us understand that while trauma may not always be visible to others, it's our own personal experience that matters most. By embracing our pain and looking for the lessons it holds, we can unlock a path to profound personal growth and transformation.Links from the episode: Show Notes: https://mindlove.com/354 Become a Mind Love Member for high-value Masterclasses, Growth Workbooks, Monthly Meditations, and Uninterrupted Listening FREE 5-Days to Purpose Email Course Sign up for The Morning Mind Love for short daily notes to wake up inspired Support Mind Love Sponsors Learn more about your ad choices.

We will learn: How a radical use of present-tense affirmations can reshape your reality. How to embrace boredom and repetitive activities as a superpower How to truly flow with life If you’re anything like me (and I’ve got a hunch that you might be, given that you’re listening to this podcast), you have spent quite a bit of time working on yourself.But eventually, you get to a point where you think, okay, this is all good in theory, but what about in practice?It’s easy to feel enlightened when you’re off in a cave or an ashram, but it’s our real lives that are the portal to our own awakening.When you can find the bliss in doing the dishes, the meditation in running on a trail, or… find God in the brother you haven’t spoken to in years… that’s when you truly start to understand what zen is all about.So today, we're diving into how we can bring these zen principles into our everyday lives, transform mundane tasks into moments of mindfulness, and navigate the complexities of life with a sense of calm and presence.Because the true test of zen isn't how peaceful you feel in solitude but how centered you remain in the midst of it all.Our guest is Katie Arnold.

We will learn: The true consequences of external validation How to shift from time management to energy management How your relationships reflect your self-worth and how to break the cycle Do you want to know a powerful question you can ask yourself every time you react to something: Am I responding this way because it’s necessary or because of a past experience?Our experiences, especially from childhood, shape a huge part of who we are today. Memories, beliefs, and habits get deeply rooted in our subconscious minds. Then, they control our actions and reactions more than most of us even realize.But here's the good news: becoming aware of this starts to loosen the grip your past has on your present and future.So today, we’re talking about sovereignty, or the inner power, independence, and self-control to make choices based on your true self, not outside pressure or past conditioning.Our guest is Dr. Emma Seppälä. She's a speaker, author, and lecturer at Yale University. She's known for her expertise in the science of happiness, emotional intelligence, and social connection.

We will learn: How to plant seeds of change within your relationships How to challenge your perspective and understand others more deeply How to use an inside-out approach when dealing with disagreements Have you ever been in the middle of an argument and felt like there was no way out?The exhausting back-and-forth where nobody seems to give an inch can leave you wondering if there's a way to find common ground without giving up what you believe in.We often try to show who we are by what we believe. And in a way, that becomes true. Because if we identify with our belief system, it's who we become and it's who others see us as.But if we identify with a deeper set of values, then we start to see everything else as just the armor we wear. The outfit we have on.Who we truly are is always beyond that. And if we can get over ourselves long enough to connect on that level, I honestly believe our entire world would change.So that's what we're talking about today. Our guest is Justin Jones-Fosu. He's the embodiment of energy, both at home and on top of the world's highest peaks. He recently even conquered one of the famous 7 Summits.

We will learn: When we should take a different approach to self-acceptance How to develop an aspirational identity The three pillars of self-confidence and how they can transform your self-image Have you ever had that inner voice that whispers, “I can’t do this,” right before you’re about to take on something new?Or maybe it’s louder, a persistent chant of self-doubt that seems to paralyze you, keeping you stuck where you are, not really moving forward in life.But that’s not your true inner voice. It’s the reptilian brain. The part that’s been running the show since the caveman days. And if you don’t learn to manage that part of your brain, you never clear the weeds to hear your true inner voice.So, I want you to imagine moving through life with a sense of purpose and alignment, making choices not from a place of fear but from a place of confidence.That’s exactly what we’re diving into today. The concept of Wise Confidence.Our guest is Giovanni Dienstmann. He’s been on the show before and has produced a masterclass for our membership.
