Ep 119: Space to Be, Self-Discovery and Fulfilment
Are you truly giving yourself the 'space to be'? Does our culture's focus on 'doing' over 'being' leave you feeling unfulfilled? Let's embark on a journey of self-discovery and authenticity, and give you the tools to create your own 'space to be.' This isn't about isolation or idleness, but about embracing those moments that allow us to truly be ourselves, reflecting on our truths, and nurture our emotional and intuitive selves. Learning to simply 'be' is a revolution against our result-driven perspective and opens the door to deeper understanding and growth.In this captivating episode, we're also going to probe into why our culture often neglects the aspect of 'being' and how this imbalance affects us. We'll explore different environments that can foster this state of 'being', whether it’s being with a loved one, connecting with nature, or even being part of a group. The future of your growth, fulfillment, and self-understanding could start with this essential listen. So, join the conversation and let's redefine what it means to just 'be'.

Ep 117: Reflection, Assumptions & the Quest for a Deeper Understanding
In this episode we talk about the human superpower of reflection, our ability to reassess and extract nuanced information from our experiences, and it's vital role in our creative process. But the highlight of the conversation emerges as we uncover our subconscious assumptions that have been shaping our perspectives and choices - for example in the realm of health and wellness. We challenge standard assumptions - such as illness and discomfort being inherently negative, and how this mindset might be prompting us to seek immediate relief, often overlooking our body's natural healing process. By questioning our deeply rooted beliefs, we open up a fresh perspective and deeper understanding of our experiences. This episode is an open-ended invitation for you to question your assumptions, expand your reflective capacity, and gain a fresh perspective on your experiences. Step into this intriguing exploration with us, and embrace your Reflection Superpower!Support the show=== 🤝 Join our Being Space Community ✦ Podcast: https://truthandtranscendence.com ✦ Website: https://beingspace.world ✦ YouTube: / https://youtube.com/@BEINGSPACEcatherinellewellyn ✦ Insta: / https://instagram.com/beingspace.world/ ✦ Facebook: / https://facebook.com/BeingSpaceWorld ✦ TikTok: / https://tiktok.com/@beingspace.world ______ Donate: https://truthandtranscendence.com/donate Podcast network: https://joinpodmatch.com/catherinellewellyn Podcast website: https://podpage.com/?via=truthandtranscendence Podcast coach: https://bestpodcastcoach.org/TruthandTranscendence/ref/2/ Brain fitness: https://braingym.fitness/ref/3/ VA: https://va.world/contact/ref/1/...

Ep111: Exploring Utopian Visions with Aldous Huxley's 'Island'
Ready to step away from the dystopian narrative and into the realm of utopian visions? Aldous Huxley's less known but profoundly philosophical novel, Island, is a beautiful exploration of a utopian society and the ideals of humanity. This episode of Truth and Transcendence delves into the philosophical notions embedded in Island, inviting listeners to contemplate the best version of themselves and society at large. Through the skeptical eyes of a journalist, we examine the intricate dance of disbelief and acceptance of utopian ideologies. We'll also navigate the value of dystopia in illuminating our shadow selves, with a nod to Ursula Le Guin's Left Hand of Darkness, emphasising the importance of acknowledging both light and darkness in our lives. The episode concludes with a poignant extract from Island, shedding light on Huxley's deep-seated belief in the inherent compassion in us all. I hope you enjoy this exploration of Huxley's enlightening work, where we ponder over humanity, culture, society, and our ultimate potential.Support the show=== 🤝 Join our Being Space Community ✦ Podcast: https://truthandtranscendence.com ✦ Website: https://beingspace.world ✦ YouTube: / https://youtube.com/@BEINGSPACEcatherinellewellyn ✦ Insta: / https://instagram.com/beingspace.world/ ✦ Facebook: / https://facebook.com/BeingSpaceWorld ✦ TikTok: / https://tiktok.com/@beingspace.world ______ Donate: https://truthandtranscendence.com/donate Podcast network: https://joinpodmatch.com/catherinellewellyn Podcast website: https://podpage.com/?via=truthandtranscendence Podcast coach: https://bestpodcastcoach.org/TruthandTranscendence/ref/2/ Brain fitness: https://braingym.fitness/ref/3/ VA: https://va.world/contact/ref/1/...

Ep 110: Ron Macklin - Way of Being & the Macklin Method
Way of Being & the Macklin MethodRon realised early in his engineering career that he had a passion for building and leading teams. And he realised that to succeed, he needed to build a deep network of support. He needed to learn why people connect and how they create results together. This realisation led him on a 30-year journey that culminated in the creation of the 7-step Macklin Method and the launch of Macklin Connection. Ron earned a degree in engineering from Kansas State University and quickly grew into leadership positions in his budding career. Ron grew to lead teams that set nine world records and won dozens of customer satisfaction awards. At Siemens, for example, Ron led a support division with 350 employees that worked over 5 million hours without a lost-time injury and was voted “the best place to work in Houston” by the Houston Business Journal. Twice Ron has created a growth culture responsible for increasing profits by $20 million, and has led seven different groups from worst- to best-in-class. Today, Ron is the president of Macklin Connection, overseeing programmes and extending the reach of the organisation worldwide. He continues to lead programmes and coach teams and individuals. Ron had me at ‘Way of Being’! Of course we’re affected by external factors. But our way of being is our most powerful point of leverage when it comes to how we experience, perceive and respond to what’s happening around us and to us. I enjoy Ron’s way of being. Wonderful gravitas, centredness and calm as he leads us deep into territories of the self.
