  • Rebecca P. Fox On Narcissism, Trauma, Toxic Relationships and Rewiring Your Trauma to Heal and Take Control
    This week, we are joined by Narcissism and trauma healing expert Rebecca P Fox. A Psychotherapist and accomplished author making waves with her viral content around this complex subject.
    We delve deep as Rebecca shares her own traumatic journey with brutal honesty, which has led her to where she is today. Moving forward from childhood trauma with a narcissistic mother, the unresolved trauma inevitably led to more toxic and highly abusive relationships. This is why Rebecca wants to prevent others from experiencing the same.
    Narcissism is increasingly prevalent in today's power-hungry society. Rebecca explains why we need to build on our emotional intelligence to ensure we are always in control. She is on a mission to help people who have experienced trauma regain their power, but also to help us identify the red flags and avoid potentially toxic relationships from the start.
    A fascinating insight into a hugely important subject.

  • Wellbeing Warrior Philly J Lay Exposes The Health Scandal That Affects Us All
    After having survived a near-death medical procedure, and overcoming addiction to opioids and alcohol, author Philly J Lay decided to take back control of her health and wellbeing, by investigating the side of health treatment that many of us rarely even consider. Since then, Philly has passionately spoken out about the darker side of medical control that humanity seems to be suffering beneath.
    This awakening is what brings Philly here today, as she sits down with me for a revealing, insightful, and sometimes shocking conversation about the nutritional discoveries she has made, including the medicinal properties of food, the hidden side of processed foods, and how the powers on high are feeding us lies and propaganda in order to keep us under control.
    BEST MOMENTS
    'There is so much more information to come out - certainly about health'
    'Nobody is questioning why our health has gone to'
    'The more you eat this stuff, the more you want it'
    'Nothing else could have saved my life that day apart from the love of my children'

  • Unleashing Unlimited Potential: Lessons from Near-Death Experiences and World Records from Extreme Adventurer Ash Dykes
    Life lessons from the extremes 💪
    Ash Dykes, British Adventurer and Extreme Athlete joins me for an epic episode of the "On a Mission" podcast. This one will have you gripped from the start as he shares untold stories and describes hair-raising situations he's faced during his various world record expeditions 🤯.
    We discuss how lessons learned from these extreme situations can be applied in everyday life, such as breaking down goals, holding onto your vision, eradicating doubt, and understanding that motivation may not always be present, but discipline can be.
    Ash talks candidly about the fire that ignites him from within, his reckless past that has shaped him, and some of the most nerve-wracking, hair-raising adventures he's experienced, including encounters with snakes, crocodiles, and even the bubonic plague!
    Definitely one of my favourite episodes so far. Make sure you hit subscribe for more amazing content. 
    KEY TAKEAWAYS
    There is value to be had in joining a group such as the military as it helps to broaden your horizons. But it can also be far more valuable to find those missions and set those challenges for yourself without being ordered to do so.
    The education system needs some form of initiation in order to give children a better perspective on life. They must be taught to fend for themselves in a way, to learn what it takes to survive, and thereby gain a better view of the lives that are being given to them by their parents.
    There comes a point during certain expeditions where our bodies want to quit. But if we do not push on and persevere we will expire in some nameless place. It takes an iron will to carry on.
    When challenges stack up from day one it can knock you psychologically - the negativity can turn your mood from hope to hate. Controlling these emotions is part of becoming a great adventurer.
    BEST MOMENTS
    'I don't like the thought of not being a free spirit'
    'Facing adversity and struggles makes you stronger'
    'You don't ever know what lies beneath'
    'We came back stronger!'

  • Master Sri Akarshana On Accessing The Superconscious Mind and Turning Darkness Into Light
    This week's episode was recorded live from Dubai with my fabulous co-host Toni Gargan where we had the pleasure of speaking to Master Sri Akarshana, also known as the Yogi with a Lamborghini.
    Master Sri Akarshana's wisdom has inspired over 35 million people worldwide. Despite being the son of a gang leader, he defied the odds and became a highly successful entrepreneur, achieving financial freedom at the young age of 25. However, he felt deeply depressed and unfulfilled, realising that material possessions alone couldn't bring him true happiness. This realisation led him to discover a passion for helping others.
    Letting go of his luxurious lifestyle, Master Sri Akarshana embarked on a journey of self-discovery and service. He was chosen to become a disciple of the Himalayan Spiritual Master Grandmaster Akshar, a role that came with a rigorous and little-known training process which isn’t for the faint hearted. 
    In our conversation, Master Sri shares his insights on various topics, including the Law of Attraction, manifestation, and practical ways to enhance one's spiritual journey. He also discusses the strategies he has developed to overcome negativity and limiting beliefs.
    One of the biggest challenges in the spiritual community is finding a balance between spirituality and financial abundance. Master Sri Akarshana delves into the common scarcity mindset that holds many spiritual individuals back from accumulating wealth and accessing their full potential.
    Don't miss this episode, as it breaks down stereotypes and misconceptions surrounding spirituality and offers a fresh perspective on what it truly means to be spiritual.
    BEST MOMENTS
    'What a lot of people don't talk about is the superconscious'
    'There has to be darkness for light to prevail'
    'Everything is what it is and we do our best'
    'You learn so much from perspective'

  • Rapper And Influencer, Zuby, On Why The World Needs Common Sense IMMEDIATELY
    Zuby is so much more than just a rapper. He is a rising public figure whose unique perspective, authenticity, and positive energy have earned him millions of followers on social media and through his online video views. 
    As a musician, author, podcaster, public speaker, fitness expert, and life coach; Zuby doesn’t shy away from expressing himself, with a refreshing and compelling level of honesty. 
    He’s caught the attention of some of the most popular media personalities in the world, appearing on The Joe Rogan Experience multiple times and more recently interviewing Elon Musk himself. But now it’s time for the biggest one of all, Zuby is now live on the On a Mission podcast and trust me, you don’t want to miss it 😜🔥
    KEY TAKEAWAYS
    When you spend time in different cultures, it allows you a perspective that many find challenging. Opening your mind means you move past the small-minded, insular views of those who live inside their own head.
    Big pharma are obviously trying to maintain a level of sickness and frailty in this world, because that's what makes them money. We need to listen to the voices of those who have broken free from their way of thinking, and look at what really works.
    There is no nuance in opinion these days. If we dare to say anything that does not sit well with every group out there, we risk being cancelled. This has led to a weakness in speaking up for what's right.
    It's vital that we protect freedom of speech, but also enshrine personal responsibility for what we say as sacred. You can't focus on the liberties alone if they impact other human beings.
    BEST MOMENTS
    'I have a perspective that is not the norm'
    'Of course they wants to prescribe you anti-anxiety medication and depression pills because it makes them a lot of money!'
    'People don't know that fasting reverses diabetes because there's no profit incentive'
    'I'm trying to make an impact in this world. I'm not trying to be average'

  • Barton Scott On Revolutionising The Human Body
    In this episode of the On a Mission podcast, we sit down with Barton Scott, the founder of Upgraded Formulas, a company that is revolutionising the way we think about our health, sleep and energy. As a former chemical engineer, Barton knows a thing or two about the importance of minerals and nutrients in our bodies. He experienced a marked decline in his energy levels and saw an emerging pattern of fatigue and brain fog. This led him to devote his life to finding a revolutionary way to become a better human being.
    Barton believes that the key to optimal health lies in the careful engineering of minerals. He explains that our bodies need a wide range of minerals to function properly, and that many of us are deficient in these essential nutrients. By carefully selecting and combining the right minerals, Barton has created a range of products that can help us all to feel better, sleep better and have more energy.
    But Barton's approach goes beyond just taking supplements. He believes that we need to take a more experimental and brave approach to our health. He argues that the accepted medical wisdom might be changed entirely if we were willing to try new things and take risks. By eating a nutrient and mineral-rich diet, we can give our bodies the tools they need to function at their best.
    In this fascinating conversation, Barton shares his insights into the importance of minerals, the benefits of a nutrient-rich diet, and why we need to be more experimental in our approach to health. If you're looking for ways to improve your health, sleep and energy, then this is an episode you won't want to miss.
    BEST MOMENTS
    'Minerals activate vitamins and enzyme pathways - they give the body a lot of shortcuts'
    'The diagnoses that we have fancy names for are really just a way for doctors to compartmentalise'
    'I applied chemical engineering to nutrition and suddenly saw all these things that can't be true'
    'What we're doing when we take control of our health is that we're taking more control back of every other aspect'

  • Inspired By: Uncovering the Authentic Stories of Entrepreneurs with Chloë Bisson
    In this episode, we welcome, special guest Chloe Bisson, an enterprising individual who is embarking on her own podcast called Inspired By. We explore the significance of authenticity and embracing one's true self, while also highlighting the value of casual conversations. Prepare to be enthralled by Chloe's personal journey in launching her podcast and discover the driving force behind her inspiration.
    BEST MOMENTS
    "It's okay saying that. And I think too many people say, oh, what people think. But you know what? If we're all being really honest with ourselves, the vast majority of us do want to be liked."
    "We're all equal in this life. And the way that you speak to people that are at the bottom of the corporate ladder, not the top of it, is very telling."
    "When you attach your identity to one thing and you then achieve what you've perceived to be the pinnacle of success. Only to find the said of it being the Holy grail, you're left feeling empty and unfulfilled."
    "I've gained so much more than I've actually lost."
    "It's the X factor, isn't it? It's not necessarily the top actors or actresses that are in Hollywood at the moment. In the same way, it's probably not always the best podcasters. It's usually the best marketers, the best people connecting, building relationships, getting in front of the right people that understand how to play the game of life, not just in that industry."
