Sometimes we wake up feeling invincible, as though the world is perfectly aligned, and everything we touch turns to gold. Other times, we can’t seem to lift the weight off our shoulders, let alone get out of bed. That’s life. It’s not a straight line, nor a steady climb. It’s a wave—up and down, unpredictable, and rarely, if ever, consistent. And peace, that elusive state of being we all crave? It’s hardly any different. For most of us, peace doesn’t come as a complete package. It comes in bits and pieces, scattered across our days, moments, and contexts.

Have you ever told yourself, "I'll try"? Whether it’s starting a new project, changing a habit, or taking on a challenge, this phrase is common in our vocabulary. But have you noticed something? More often than not, when we start with "I'll try," we also end up saying, "Well, I tried".

Today, let’s explore what this phrase means, how it affects our outcomes, and what happens if we shift our language to a bolder statement: "I’ll do it." Along the way, we’ll reflect on failure, how we process it, and how language shapes our effort and results.

Narcissistic behavior, characterized by a grandiose sense of self-importance, a need for excessive admiration, and a lack of empathy, can be rooted in both innate personality traits and life experiences. Understanding this dual origin is essential for exploring the possibility of change, particularly as it distinguishes between what might be more deeply ingrained and resistant to transformation versus behaviors that are more adaptable and responsive to interventions.

Taking things personally is a habit that many of us fall into without even realizing it. It happens when we believe that someone’s words or actions are directed at us in a negative way. What’s actually happening is that we’re interpreting their actions through our own lens, making it about us when it may not be.

There are reasons behind this behaviour, that I'll cover in another episode. Also, please ignore the pigeons in the background. Noise removal has its limitations. :D

Chronotypes are classifications that reflect the natural sleep-wake patterns of individuals, helping to explain why some people feel more energized in the morning while others thrive in the evening. These patterns, deeply rooted in our biology, are influenced by the body’s circadian rhythm, an internal clock that regulates when we feel alert and when we feel tired. Understanding chronotypes can be incredibly useful for optimizing productivity, well-being, and overall health by aligning daily activities with your body’s natural rhythm.

Today, we're going to talk about something that many people encounter but might not fully understand: narcissistic admiration.

Have you ever met someone who constantly craves attention and praise, seems overly focused on their achievements, and is always talking about how great they are?

If so, you might have met someone who exhibits narcissistic admiration.

In this episode, we'll explore what narcissistic admiration is, how to recognize it, and, most importantly, how to deal with it in a healthy way.

Today, we'll explore a topic that many of us struggle with at some point in our lives—finding a romantic partner. But not any partner; we’re going to explore the idea of finding someone who makes us happier rather than someone who we expect to make us happy. A partner who complements us, rather than completes us. This distinction is important, and it’s at the core of how healthy, lasting relationships are formed.

In Hindu mythology, deities are often depicted with human-like flaws—anger, jealousy, or impulsiveness—yet these imperfections do not diminish their divinity. Instead, they highlight a balance between good and bad, making the gods relatable to human experience. Conversely, when human figures are deified—such as spiritual leaders or cultural icons—their flaws are often ignored or suppressed, presenting them as paragons of perfection. This podcast explores the paradox of accepting flaws in divine beings while holding deified humans to impossible standards, and the cultural implications of these contrasting perceptions.

This is a technique for nearly instant happiness and calm. It is meant to be a refresher, to reinforce one to one individual sessions.
