  • EP 6: Understanding your Needs

    Dive into the depths of understanding our fundamental needs in this episode. 

    While values lay the foundation of who we are, our needs guide our quest for growth and fulfillment. I revisit the well-known Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs, breaking down its layers from basic survival necessities to actualisation. 

    We'll explore how these needs, when unmet, can affect our daily lives, emotional health, and potential growth.

  • EP 5: Navigating Life Through Your True Values

    In this intimate episode, I delve deep into the heart of what defines us: our values. 

    What truly resonates with you? Is it personal beliefs, societal standards, or a blend of both? 

    Together, we'll explore the distinction between living by our true values versus those imposed by others. 
    Why is it that we sometimes feel out of sync with our actions or decisions? The answer often lies in the alignment (or misalignment) with our core values. James Clear, author of Atomic Habits, posits that behaviour out of tune with our self doesn't last. Discover if your actions align with what you truly value. 

    Furthermore, I'll share my personal journey of rediscovering my values when they merged with my business. Learn powerful tools and exercises to pinpoint your core values and understand how they can lead to transformative changes in your life. Dive into Dr. John Demartini's insightful test to uncover what you truly value.

     So, are you living as your most authentic self? Let's find out together.

    Are you inspired by others or jealous of their achievements?
