KEY TAKEAWAYS

• I’ve done all kinds of interesting things before I decided to completely change who I was and remember who I was. I was an EMT for about 15 years, I was a ski instructor, I was a commercial SCUBA diver, I did all these great things and a lot of them were rooted in searching for who I was. The whole way through I’d been grateful to have dogs with me my whole life and I didn’t realise until later on the lessons they were actually teaching me and the things they’d given me along the way that made me who I am.
• About 5 years ago my older brother passed away and that tore me up and cracked me open. I grieved, I was sobbing and writhing in pain after his death. It was an incredible experience. What that did was allowed me to realise I didn’t like who I was and how I was showing up in the world – I was angry, insecure, all these things that had been going on forever but I didn’t realise. This sent me on a journey of self-exploration, healing and growth and at that time I witnessed my dog doing some things and I realised he’d been trying to show me this stuff all along, so I started working backwards through different periods of my life and found that I hadn’t been paying attention.
• I think time and exposure to humans has allowed them to read us better. Dogs are masters at body communication. Most of their communication between themselves and other animals occurs without them ‘talking’, they can pick up on the slightest cue: the way we stand, the way we hold a leash, our energy, all these things come into play when an animal is in communication with a human.
• After my brother’s passing I had a dog named Derby. He was phenomenal, he was funny, he was goofy, but he was able to help me tap into things that I had never realised before. I started meditating and the next thing I know he would join me and spend that time and hold that space with me. Instead of wanting to be outside, he’d just come and sit, so he started to teach me to be really present, I could just be, I don’t have to be doing anything. I started asking myself what else am I not listening to or picking up on, so I spent more time watching what he did throughout his day. I noticed that while I was working he’d go to the door so I’d open it and he’d just stand there, then I realised that I needed to go outside and take a break, after coming back inside I’d feel so much better. He taught me to notice this better and not just pound through.

BEST MOMENTS

‘I think that animals are wise, they have this wisdom about themselves and the world, they don’t put stuff on top of themselves. The wolves thought “Oh my gosh, these humans need help! We need to get over there and help then, who’s first?”’

‘As human we have these pretty big, powerful egos. Sometimes they work for us and sometimes they don’t. We like to think we’re in control of all these things, and I think that brings us a lot of misery.’

‘I think we’re able to let our guard down around our dogs than  any other creatures. That little bit of vulnerability allows a different type of access. People who you stay walled off from can’t get close to you, people who are close to us have a little more access, but with our dogs we can let our guard way down.’

‘People don’t realise that they are a part of what their animal is doing and why they might have certain behaviours.’

In this episode of the podcast Gavin talks about the fact he’s had a bit of a ‘wobble’ since deciding to swim the English Channel rather than the Gibraltar Straits three weeks ago, and how that’s affected him.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• All sorts of questions have come up this morning: Am I physically able to complete this challenge? Am I going to stay in the cold water for the duration? Am I going to have weather stop my attempt as I’m making the crossing? Those are the questions that are concerning me the most. What’s concerning me is not the destination but the journey.
• I don’t have a lot of time left to prepare, the swim is in September, just 14 weeks. My calves are still incredibly tight and burning from the 6-hour qualifier that took place 10 days ago.
• What’s really setting my off balance is not what could go wrong during the swim, the registration and application, but what might happen around the swim date with the weather and the training. Am I in a fit enough state to do it?
• Why can’t I find the strength to get me out of this hole now? The devil has appeared, the ego, asking me all those questions and making negative statements. It wants me to go out and get drunk, dance with girls and have a good time until the sunrise. Whilst it’s not impossible to do that, I’ve got 14 weeks.

BEST MOMENTS

‘I’m going to forego income earning activities, at least half of them because I’m losing half the time because of the extra training.’

‘You never know what lies ahead in a swim, you’ve just got to kick and put one hand ahead of the other and keep going.’

‘The only way this works is if my “why” was bigger than myself. My personal “why” was to break my beliefs around my physical capability. My external world “why” was always to raise awareness around plastic pollution, so they are much greater than me.’

‘You need support when the devil is in your ear.’

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• My mission in life is to be a lighthouse to people helping them to find a way back home. The beacon that I send out is just enough to activate the missing parts they feel like they’re missing, they’ve abandoned, forgotten or overwritten them with what somebody else taught them was the right way to do things. These missing pieces are what end up controlling our lives and we spend the rest of our lives trying to find fillers to fit into these missing pieces.
• The top three reasons my clients come to me are 1) To discover visibility after spending most of their life feeling invisible or shrinking in the shadows. 2) People who just don’t feel they have any value and find themselves in relationships and situations where they’re taken advantage of. 3) Forever searchers who are trying to put themselves into somebody else’s box and so they’re living a life of dissatisfaction and frustration. They feel like they don’t belong, but where they do belong is inside their bodies.
• There are three stages to enjoying any desire or enjoying any desire or creating a goal and bringing it into fruition. Stage one is where you get excited about it, you get energised because you’re going towards something that lights you up. Stage two though is where most people give up. We start most things kind of like gold-panning – shifting and shaking – and what doesn’t need to remain falls away, but we cling to our beliefs because they’re familiar to us and part of our identity, as soon as someone starts taking it off we feel naked. If you want to go to the next level or you want to realise your dreams and desires, if you really want it there’s a mismatch between what your beliefs are and the fear you’re carrying around with you, to get to the top of the mountain you’re going to have to lighten that load a little bit.  
• If you’re trying to run life through your head all you’re doing is accessing the past and the past has already been done, we already know what that is, why continue reliving the past and perpetuating what you were taught as a child?

BEST MOMENTS

‘Are you playing with boundaries that give you permission to do more of the things that light you up?’

‘If you know what you don’t want you know what you do want. What’s really important is the first part of that statement, usually it’s rooted in some kind of fear. This is really the first step.’

‘What you’re resisting is like a muscle, the more you resist it the stronger it gets. You need to go into a place of surrender.’

‘Our bodies are always flowing, blood knows how to flow, chemicals know how to flow, all of nature knows how to be in flow it’s us that think we can overpower it or redirect it. Breathing is one thing I teach my clients, it’s one thing we all can do.’

In this episode of the podcast Gavin talks about living your lie and what that means. Basically, we need to stop lying to ourselves that we’re doing the best we can and challenge ourselves rather than remain in our comfort zone.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• Most of us get up every day and think we’re doing the best we can do. Let’s be honest, it’s simply not true. We can all be doing better, we simply choose not to. We choose to allow our ego to keep us in a nice comfort zone where we don’t feel discomfort, where we’re not challenging ourselves and growing. We’re so used to that feeling that we don’t want to feel something else.
• I recognise that some people don’t want to grow and there’s nothing wrong with that, everybody’s different and that’s why the world is so wonderful. If you can acknowledge that challenge just isn’t for you and that the comfort zone is just where you want to be then you are not living your lie. But if you’re the kind of person who’s bored of the same old daily routine but keep living it out then you ARE living your lie. 
• The first thing that has to happen is recognising, becoming aware that you are living a lie. A simple way to become aware is, if you want to see an outcome but your actions are the same time and again then you have just clocked your awareness and now you have the opportunity and your horizon widened and you can make changes. Don’t get too excited and make too many, or too big changes, start small. Here’s one: Getting up and making a cup of tea, change an action that you do in the few steps from your bed to the hot water tap. What can you change? Your posture? Do it.
• Think: “Life is wonderful, life is miraculous”, get up with a smile on your face. You’re now replacing your habitual thoughts and motions. Don’t think about getting a better job or car, just control what’s going on inside of you, it’s nothing to do with the outside world. You can change your life in just a week by changing just one moment in your day.

BEST MOMENTS

‘Feelings are the very lifeline of living.’

‘What lie are you living?’

‘No one can make you live your truth, no one but you, that is.’

‘Wake up with swagger!’

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• I was on really heavy anti-psychotics, antidepressants, anti-migraine medications, the antipsychotics were the hardest ones to get off because I couldn’t sleep if I didn’t take them, so I took them for ten years. I watched so many videos and tutorials about how to get off them and the doctors were saying they were harder to get off than heroin, but I didn’t want to be on them for the rest of my life because I didn’t know what they’d end up doing to my body or even if I was really getting any decent natural sleep when I was sedating myself all the time.
• I wasn’t harming myself, I was diagnosed with bipolar and borderline personality disorder (experiencing intense emotions, different ones all at once) which characterised in really massive mood swings and huge emotional breakdowns which would result in crying, screaming punching and banging my head against walls – not to hurt myself but to make the emotional pain stop. It was an extreme way of me trying to regulate my emotions to level myself out.
• I still struggle with a bit of histamine intolerance and there are some foods I have to avoid, but a lot of it is just being really disciplined with your diet and taking various supplements, to heal the lining of your gut for example because gut health is directly linked to mental health. This will help me manage my symptoms, have me feeling good and not having any stomach problems or feelings from gut stuff.
• I started climbing after I’d already healed and recovered after all of the mental issues, but it’s definitely something that helped me to stay healthy, to have a hobby where I cared about the results more than just being healthy because I have to be healthy. It helps me to switch off mentally, it’s like meditation, you can’t think about anything else than what’s in front of you, focussing on your breathing and using all of your strength while trying to be really calm.

BEST MOMENTS

‘I’d always seemed to have sleep issues. As a kid I took a lot of antibiotics for frequent ear infections for months and that was the start of a steady decline downwards of sleeping, mood, other problems, stomach problems, eating disorders and it snowballed to the point where at 18 I was crying and screaming every day and wasn’t sleeping at all and hit rock bottom of feeling mentally unwell.’

‘I was constipated from a young age; I only went to the bathroom every 2-3 days. At 24 I did a 3-day water fast and that helped reset my bowels, my stomach and the bacteria there and in the last 5 years since I’ve done that I go to the bathroom after every meal like you’re meant to.’

‘As soon as you fix the diet all the symptoms will stop. Food triggers it. If you have a gut problem and you’re eating inflammatory foods, it’s these and the proteins in the bloodstream that are causing the problem. If I were to start eating processed foods again now I would get brain fog, snappy and irritable and within a few weeks I’d get emotional and sad and grumpy.’

‘I’m not a foodie, maybe because of everything I’ve been through with food. I cook because it’s healthy. If you’ve been at the gym for 4 hours and you’re starving, everything is delicious.’

ABOUT THE GUEST

Sarah Anne is an authentic, caring, and client-centred sales and marketing trainer who helps coaches reach six-figure income by bringing more value to their clients. Sarah shows entrepreneurs how to charge more by either increasing the results, or the speed or ease with which their clients get results. You could go without numbering.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• I’ve been living on the south coast of Spain, living an outdoor lifestyle and managed to avoid catching Covid for the last two years. I guess there was a part of me that thought I was immune, impenetrable and to some extent it’s that attitude, that mindset, along with the lifestyle that I’ve been living that has kept me out of harm's way.
• I’m on day five of being indoors not seeing anyone and I’m losing my shit, people! It’s a perfect environment to work. It’s quiet, it’s warm, but the mere fact that I’m in isolation… I can’t put my finger on it, but I can’t concentrate, I can focus, I can’t install and instil the good habits that I’ve created. And I’m wracking my brain as to why this is.
• I’ve come to realise that the one thing I value most in all the world, in the kingdom I’m creating, in the universe, is my freedom. I am free, effectively, to come and go as I please because I’m a free being, but as a good citizen you tend not to go and potentially spread the virus further, so you isolate yourself even though there’s no real cause for concern. I know I’m not locked in this room, but I feel locked in it, I feel caged in it and that everything around me is caving in and crumbling.

BEST MOMENTS

‘I’m very grateful I have Covid now and not before the first and second waves.’

‘It feels like a mild cold instead of a strong flu.’

‘I know I could go to mentors or gurus and they would say: “Gav, it’s just your body, it’s just your mind that’s in the room, your spirit is free, recognize your spirit is free and you’ll free yourself.” But it doesn’t feel like that.’

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• I have so many different missions, which is why my bio is so long! I concentrate most on healing, I am a Galactic Goddess of Healing, which is a name my divine team gave me.
• In this incarnation, most of us come to this planet to heal, like thousands of previous incarnations. We have to do ancestral healing, which most people think is only seven generations before us but it’s not like that at all, it’s seven generations before us but we have been incarnated in different universes and galaxies. We have to heal all of that. We have to heal our inner child, where we’ve been traumatised by our parents, school, to give ourselves self-love and work on our self-esteem and abandonment issues.
• Lots of people don’t realise what they’re doing, I’m an empath and have been a transmuter of collective energies all my life but I didn’t know why I was getting ill or felt so awful after being with some people. I was absorbing negative energy from other people, and I optimise and transmute it into unconditional love. If you feel very sensitive and are affected by other people, you will be an empath, it’s just different sensitivities.
• I do fragmentation healing with the Arcturian Council in their ninth dimensional light ship. This I s for healing soul fragments from different incarnations on different planets so I can see what I’m doing with each planet, each person was guided to go and pick up their soul fragments. I see them as shattered mirror pieces. When you pick up fragments and give them to your higher self, or your over-soul, they come back and when you heal in your soul the side effect is physical and emotional healing for the body.

BEST MOMENTS

‘Ancestral healing is not just healing people from repeating the same patterns, it’s affecting our health. If your ancestors have been doing something wrong it will manifest in lots of illnesses, like genetic blood disorders and musculoskeletal issues.’

‘This healing is so important because we want to stop this loop of incarnating and reincarnating. If you heal in this lifetime you don’t have to go back here again until the next 1000 years and the planet is like a Garden of Eden again.’

‘Heaven is not somewhere in the sky, to manifest Heaven on Earth is what manifesting is, that’s what we’re building with our energies.’

‘Lots of people suffering from anxiety and depression, it’s not their energy, they don’t understand why they feel this way because there’s no reason for it. We’re getting more sensitive and feeling more collective energies, especially through Covid. When you focus on healing yourself you’re healing the whole planet because we’re all part of the collective consciousness.’

ABOUT THE GUEST

Tatiana is a Multidimensional Quantum Energy Healer, Medical Medium, Ascension Pioneer, Coach and Activator, Lightworker, Anchor of The Light, Wayshower, Ambassador of Peace for ALL and Transmuter of Collective Energies. Her greatest passion is her gift of healing in this realm and beyond.

In this episode of the podcast Gavin shares a story with us about his friend, a boy who had a great upbringing but suffered a loss and withdrew. Ask yourself about the stories you tell yourself and whether you need to wake up from it. Life is for the living.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• I knew a boy when I was young who had a great upbringing, his parents embodied the values associated with family, home was a safe place. During his childhood he experienced challenges but he never took them personally or for them to get the better of him, he lived life by his own standards.
• Tragically, his mother passed away when he was about 18 after a brave two-year fight with cancer. Despite facing this with bravery and trying to make the impact of her passing as easy as possible, the boy felt a great disconnect, something so precious, something that lit up his universe, something that he believed in, trusted and knew was good and gave him a sense of security and confidence was suddenly ripped from under him.
• His world changed. He began to see dark where there was light, challenge where there wasn’t, he began to create a world which didn’t serve him and drew to him darker times. He didn’t deal with challenges the same as he did before, he was more negative, less grateful, super-cynical, he began not to trust the universe, the process, religion, anyone that was close to him.
• He smiled and expressed joy, but his heart didn’t light up in the same way, it was to all intents and purposes encased in a warrior’s shield, confined to the prison of this shield. His work suffered, his relationships suffered with intimate partners, family, business colleagues. The way he related to the world had completely changed and he went out of his way to hide from life.

BEST MOMENTS

‘He would laugh at the sign of trouble, he would raise his chin in the face of adversity and say “I step forwards, I choose to acknowledge challenges with courage, I will show others the possibilities that they cannot see.’

‘So few of us are privileged enough to have such an incredible upbringing. Some might say, the world needed to even out and that he was to go through challenges in his life.’

‘Do you know what it feels like to go from an arena of self-expression where you are free to be, free to be and free to act to a world where you feel judged, criticised, a world where you believe everything is against you?’

‘One day he woke up from his story and wondered “where have I been? Who has been walking in my shoes and sleeping in my bed? I don’t recognise that person.” In that moment he aligned with his true nature and the shield around his heart was removed and what had fundamentally changed was that he could see it was a story he’d been telling himself and others. What do you tell yourself and is it real?’

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• I never thought that coaching was a possibility, or working in leadership development or human resources was going to be anything remotely interesting for me or my journey. But in the Fall of 2009 when I was coaching some first year students on resumes, cover letters, LinkedIn and interviewing skills, the rest of the world completely shut off and I knew this was something that was going to impact my life for years to come. I felt great in my body and I was getting third party external validation from the students who were feeding back which helped me to believe in myself.
• It’s hard to release the expectation of what we’re supposed to do based on how we compare ourselves to others. That’s why I’ve written my book. We have to look back at what we were acculturated to believe between birth and age 6 and what happens to the human mind when we’re in the theta brain wave state, this is the time when we are acculturated and socialised to be acceptable by our parents. At age 7 we move into the beta brain wave state which is a conscious discussion we have every day. We unknowingly repeat the same behaviours our parents delivered to us from birth to age 6 and these are the things that drive us to compare ourselves to others and others progress. These are not fair measurements and comparisons, the best thing you can possibly do is be hyper clear about who you are. If you know your mission, your core values, what makes you different and unique in the marketplace and every single day you’re sharing something with people, the goal is the quality of the impact on the individual not the quantity of the impact you have on tens, dozens, hundreds or thousands.
• I perceive life as being an upward spiral, we are continually confronted by situations that happen, but as we climb the spiral we’re more emotionally resilient. The way the universe tests us is by giving us deeper knowledge and understanding of what it was testing us for a year or two ago. 
• There’s a lot to be said for understanding the ‘soul body’ and its experience and what it’s doing and what has come from previous lives and thing that we’ve encountered from emotional traumas and things that we’ve experienced in this life and that right now, in human history, we’re going through a massive release. Not everybody has recognised that it’s occurring but for the last couple of years we’ve seen people navigate change that they’ve never navigated and we’ve seen them walk into their true selves in some way. The last couple of years has been teaching humanity – not everybody’s doing it – the more feminine expression of themselves. Make sure that you take time for release every day – meditation, yoga, reiki, time in nature.

BEST MOMENTS

‘We’re a very social species, we definitely need validation from others.’

‘I’ll be happy if I sell 1000 books. I haven’t got there yet, but I’ve received 25 or 26 messages from people around the world that something in my book literally saved their life. To me, that’s completely worth the investment of my time to become a coach, publishing the book and sharing it.’

‘Our society has built up this image of what it means to be a coach or be successful, but I think that our work on Earth is how we can pick up the heaviest burden that we can bear, emotionally, to reduce other people’s suffering and to carry that burden every single day.’

‘Perfection is the lowest standard you could possibly set.’

ABOUT THE GUEST

Michael Seaver’s mission is to unlock human potential. He was raised in a small, conservative West Michigan town in the ‘80s and ‘90s. His grandfather started our family’s lawn maintenance business in 1953 and he devoted 12 years to helping his father and grandfather live comfortably.

Something inside Michael knew he couldn’t fulfil his mission there, so at age 23, he moved to Arizona to begin anew. After a few years in the hospitality industry, Michael attended the Thunderbird School of Global Management and completed an MBA. Thunderbird brought his life’s mission to light.

Michael learned that he valued authenticity, growth, spirituality, wellness, and power, and how important each was to him. He then worked at one of America’s largest non-profit healthcare systems only to feel the same way he felt in Michigan. Soon, Michael left that role, started his coaching practice in 2011, and has continued to grow the ways he serves others. Through life’s uncertainties, he’s learned just how powerful human intuition is.

Michael has travelled the world seeking new ways of being. He’s coached leaders across the globe, changed corporate cultures, spoken on stage in front of thousands, written a few books and hundreds of articles, been interviewed by others and hosted his own podcast and facilitated online courses.

Through it all, Michael realised that the more he challenged mainstream ideologies, the more he recognized the patterns in human life, and the more he brought together the human personal and professional selves into one authentic being. The more he could help others move through their pain-to-purpose journey trusting they were on the right path at the right time. Your life’s answers are already inside you. Michael’s diverse set of coaching experiences and soul-based instincts serve as the clear signal to help you unlock your most authentic self.

ABOUT THE HOST

Gavin Scott is a born entrepreneur with a passion for start up and scale up. He has over 20 years real estate experience in investment and development.

Gavin says: Over the years I have discovered that mindset is everything. Now, that might sound obvious, but it is! You see the number of awoken minds are very few in reality. Whilst acknowledging mindset is key it is absolutely different from utilising, influencing, impacting and effecting great change, for yourself, your loved ones, friends, colleagues and the wider public.

Why?

Like most of us I have had many ups and downs. I want to share the lessons learnt and promote a better environment for all, internally and externally!

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• Be aware. Whatever it is you’re telling yourself, ie: the ego, at no stage listen to it. It seeks comfort and not to grow. 
• Measure your change because when your brain sees change it recognises that change and it likes those results. Subconsciously the computer programme of the ego is changing and you have to encourage and nurture that. 
• We’ve all got blocks and we can’t see beyond the end of our noses sometimes, it’s nothing to be ashamed or afraid of or feel guilty about, there’s nothing wrong with you. As we’ve gone through life we’ve only been updating our software at 50% each time, we need to update more often – your values, beliefs, structures and actions if you want growth.
• Transformation always starts with the physical first. If you look better you feel better, if you feel better you’re more motivated and encouraged to go and change the other habits. You’ve got a greater sense of fortitude.

BEST MOMENTS

‘You can measure growth and it’s really important to do so.’

‘Reach out to someone like me, a mindset educator.’

‘Actions speak louder than words. If you want to grow quicker you’ve got to change your habits.’

‘I’m trying to widen the lens of perspective from which you view things.’
