This conversation was a gift. I left buzzing for the rest of the day. It was so much fun to talk with author Maggie Smith about her new book Keep Moving The Journal. We go everywhere in this conversation, from her beginning as a writer, to take the leap into professional writing, and why she loves having diversity in her career. This episode is for anyone wanting to hear an inspiring story and learn about the importance of journaling and inner work.

This is the perfect episode to grab a coffee and journal, sit in the sun and get lost in two friends having a conversation about something they love. I loved getting to talk with Barefoot and Thankful's creator Anne Smith. We get lost in a discussion around mindfulness, living small and parenting. I hope you enjoy listening as much as we enjoyed connecting.

Peace and Gratitude Luke

This could be the most timely book you have ever read. I sat down with Neuroscientist and author Wendy Suzuki and unpacked her incredible career. We explore how she found herself focussing her career on the brain-changing benefits of exercise, her greatest mentor and, of course, her new book, Good Anxiety. I have read Good Anxiety, and it's one of the best books I have read on how to improve your mental health through practice/training. Wendy has a Ted talk with almost 13 million views and is the author of Good Anxiety and Healthy Brain, Happy Life.
It gives me great pleasure to welcome Wendy Suzuki to Conscious Conversations.

Today's episode is with musician, meditation practitioner, sober support and all-round good guy Michael Escott. What I love about Michael, and this podcast is the realness. There are no smokes and mirrors, Michael has lived a life and been through a lot, and now he's committed to helping himself and others through meditation, yoga and Buddhism. People generally take a spiritual path from a place from suffering, and with that journey, there are many stories, lessons and insights.

Today Micheal shares his stories, lessons and insights.

This is an awesome conversation with fellow men's coach Sam Morris. In this podcast, Sam shares his powerful story, and we unpack the importance of authenticity, self-care and a growth mindset for men. What I loved about this episode is that it's a real back and forth conversation on a topic that Sam and I are both so passionate about; men's health and growth. This has been one of my favourite conversations in my 40 episodes, and I'm glad to be sharing Sam's wisdom.
