Get ready for a packed episode with Paul Wilson, an amazing hypnotherapist and coach who's made a big impact in the corporate world. Today, we're getting into some real talk about weight issues and quitting smoking, two ff the MAIN new year goals that many people set in January and lose track of in 3 weeks or less.

If you've tried all the usual methods to lose weight or quit smoking and it feels like nothing's working, this episode is for you. Paul is going to break down why sometimes the problem we see isn't the real issue—it's just the tip of the iceberg. Underneath, there are layers of beliefs that have built up over the years, and the cool part is, we can let them go.

Pau shares some eye-opening insights into how identifying and releasing these hidden beliefs can actually free us from the challenges we're facing.

So, if this resonates with you, hit that subscribe button, share it with your friends, and check out our websites for more info to really get your new year's resolutions rock!

And if you want to get to grip with your limiting beliefs, both Paul and I use coaching and hypnosis to deal with any emotional blocks!

Happy new year!

In this interview with hypnotherapist Dinara Skeyrite we discuss some of the ways that perfectionism shows up in our life, ruining the pleasure of everyday living in a constant 'to-do list' that strives for unattainable goals.

We will also talk about what drives this need to be perfect in an area of our life - not just striving for excellence but never feeling good enough, accepted or fitting in.

If you find that this might be an issue in your life and you desire to take action, we will share not only the main symptoms but also how to overcome perfectionism through many routes, including hypnosis and some simple yet effective self awareness exercises.

Many symptoms of menopause may be mistaken for ageing, such as forgetting things, or feeling foggy. However, men of the same age do not display those symptoms. So are you ageing or just going through menopause? There is a big difference and a totally different mindset!

Menopause affects half of the population worldwide, and yet women's symptoms are often dismissed by medical professionals,friends and family. Bone and heart health, skin quality, where the fat is stored change almost overnight, just to name a few.

In this interview, hypnotherapist Claudia Wenning, a Holistic Health Consultant, shows us that this period of women's life may be embraced with a different mindset by taking care of ourself in a new, holistic way.

Learn how menopause manifest itselfs and how by introducing a kinder, gentle approach to this new phase of our life can shift our days into enriching and wonderful.

Have you ever looked at yourself in the mirror and sensed a part of you was missing? Are you no longer the fully whole, vibrant, and courageous person you once were? Often it takes a fall to realise you were meant to soar high all along. Don't accept emotional struggles as a life sentence. In You Are Not Depressed. You Are Un-Finished, Dr. Mehran helps you analyze your emotions and your body and go from managing symptoms to living abundantly. Learn how depression and anxiety are our own signals, saying, "Wake up, claim your life."

In our heartfelt interview, Dr Mehran, a US-based psychologist, psychoanalyst and transformation leader, explains the deep mechanisms of what we know as depression and shares the first three principles of his seven Emotional Rights™.

You will learn that depression is not the cause of your unhappiness. Depression is the result of an unfulfilled life. It's time to claim your rights.

Let's talk about men's mental health. Men are taught to keep quiet about their issues, button up, hide up problems, and even as victims of abuse, their own families tend to shove their issues under the carpet. Men are culturally not allowed to express their emotions as women do with tears, words, art, counselling and so on, many of them find alternative ways to dull their pain and some of these methods are self-destructive.

• Alcohol and drug abuse, Abusing others
• Addictions to porn and violent forms of entertainments
• Gangs, Rebel life, Crime: Vandalism, robbery, Trafficking people
• Just about anything that will dull the repressed anger and pain

What are some hidden symptoms of depression, other than self-loathing, self harm, lack of self confidence?

• Looking super successful at work but being broken financially and emotionally
• Playing macho but feeling like a failure
• Undervaluing ourselves and not charging enough for our services
• Feeling unfulfilled and without purpose despite a splendid looking career
• Being unable to open up

In this episode I interview Immigration Attorney Hèctor Quiroga. Hèctor grew up in Columbia where a series of events, including abuse, created all the triggers above. Even after creating what we could see as a dream career as an Attorney and Law professor, Hèctor continued to doubt his own capacities and keep all his emotional 'skeletons in the cupboard' locked in. This was partly because of the macho culture he grew up with.

We will hear how Hèctor eventually overcame his emotional problems and created a truly gratifying life. Hector's fondest wish is to encourage others, especially men, to overcome their own emotional issues. The principles he shares in this audio and video podcast episode are available to you in his book, 'Prove them wrong'.

Prove Them Wrong: One Immigrant's 10-Year Journey from Bankrupt to Millionaire is the inspirational story of an immigrant's pursuit of the American Dream – a trajectory fraught with unparalleled obstacles and exceptional triumphs. A story of embracing your path, believing in your potential, and living life to the fullest – no matter the odds.

Finding happiness and balance in life seems to be an eternal quest for humans. Yet, despite our efforts, many of us are running in circles and chasing impossible dreams - and feeling unfulfilled in the process.

In this interview with best-selling author Ryan A. Bush (who wrote Designing the mind), we will discuss this very topic and in particular, but not only:

• What is a virtue, or skill?
• Why having virtues enhances our life?
• What happens when we embrace new and uncomfortable change?
• Why comfort is actually a barrier to virtue
• Why life is good - as long as you keep moving (hint: this is not a suggestion to overwhelm your schedule!)
• How Ryan conquered social anxiety.... and much more!

Ryan is a deep thinker and has blended together the teachings of ancient philosophers, spirituality, neuroscience and psychology, creating a fascinating recipe for a happier existence. His motto is,

'Don't waste a minute of your life being less than you can be.'

His forthcoming book, Become who you are, will be available on sale in early 2024.

• What are the effects of negative thinking?
• How do our days change when we focus mostly on what can go wrong?
• How are our relationships affected?

In this interview with Olivia Brito we will discuss the symptoms of negative thinking and how this pattern of thinking, which is designed to protect us from pain and failure, can become overactive and dampen our enthusiasm and energy for life.

We will also see which steps we can take to turn this unwanted pattern into a more useful way of seeking fufillment and purpose...

The energy goes where the focus is, always....

Christmas is coming! With parties, food, drink and a huge sense of guilt as soon as January approaches, some of you might not be looking forward to it. The results of your hard work are risking to we wiped in the cycle of stress, fatigue, guilt, soothing snacks, restrictive dieting and thoughts of failure, leading to more stress eating.

If this is you, and this year you are determined to keep fit, in control and able to lose weight if needed, and still enjoy life, this episode is for you.

In our interview with Robin Edwards, who helps people who have chronic fatigue eliminate stress and gain energy to get their life back, we will tackle all this and much more!

Coming soon: Discovering how to balance pleasure, gain and virtue, with best-selling author Ryan A. Bush.

Imagine you go to a fancy restaurant with your friends and you anticipate a fine meal. The waiter approaches you and asks what would you like to eat. You have read the large menu in front of you and you start, 'Well, I certainly don't want any carbs. I also don't eat legumes. I don't like Indian food. I can't have nuts, I'm allergic....and I don't want to gain weight...'

How can the waiter give you a fine meal if you can't even explain what you want? And yet many times this is exactly how we live life. We wish things were not so bad. We complain of everything that is not going well. But we have not quite figured out what it is that we want. Therefore our mind cannot create it.

Think about it: everything is created first as a thought, as energy, vibrations, molecules, electricity, and it becomes then stored as such in our brain. Only then we can start dreaming about it, making plans and strategies and eventually get close and closer to it.

As long as we keep thinking about what we don't want, or RAS cannot help us to focus on what we want.

And there is plenty of literature about this (Stephen Covey, 'Begin with the end in mind') and science, too!

Twenty years ago the University of Aberdeen conducted a peer reviewed study which showed that what we visualise can improve the quality of our health in terms of cancer healing. Multiple studies after that showed the same thing: we create everything in our mind first. You will hear stories of physical healing, depression recovery and even beating anxiety and panic attacks using the power of our mind.

Our life can improve when we start by focusing on what we want - and not on what we don't want!
