What happens when you achieve everything you were told would make you successful and it still doesn’t feel like enough?

In this episode of Conscious Chats, I’m joined by Ray Martin, former award-winning CEO turned author and coach, to explore what it really means to redefine success.

After experiencing profound personal loss and walking away from conventional achievement, Ray set out on what was meant to be a six-month sabbatical  that became a fourteen-year journey of reinvention across the world.

We talk about:

This conversation is for anyone questioning the version of success they’ve been chasing and wondering what comes next.

Many of us reach a point where life looks “successful” on the outside but internally, something feels off.

In this episode of Conscious Chats, I’m joined by Tanya Thompson, author, coach, and creator of The Storyboard Method™, to explore what it really means to rewrite the story you’re living.

We talk about burnout, toxic work culture, truth and alignment, and why so many people stay in lives they’ve outgrown even when they know something needs to change. Tanya shares how our lives are shaped by the stories we unconsciously live by, how to recognise when a story no longer fits, and how to begin rewriting it with clarity and compassion beyond vision boards or surface-level manifestation.

This conversation is for anyone feeling stuck, misaligned, or quietly ready for a new chapter one that reflects who they are now, not who they had to be to survive.

In this episode of Conscious Chats, we explore what it really means to build a business that’s aligned, sustainable, and deeply human especially in a world increasingly shaped by AI.

This conversation dives into trust, integrity, and authenticity in business, and why these qualities matter more than ever as brands compete for attention online. We unpack what authenticity in branding actually looks like today, where many businesses are losing their humanity, and how design, user experience, and emotional connection play a critical role in building credibility and trust.

We also talk about attracting the right clients instead of chasing them, building reputation through word-of-mouth, and creating consistent, grounded income without compromising your values. If you’re running a studio, agency, or service-based business or you’re feeling called to grow in a way that still feels aligned with who you are this episode is for you.

Forget the jargon. Ravi breaks spirituality down to one line—and shows you how to actually feel it.

In this episode:

Spirituality, simplified: “Spirituality is the experience of your own life force.”

Mind vs Soul: The sun-and-clouds analogy for why peace is always there (and how to see it).

Ambition not obsession: Pursue goals without letting outcomes own you.

The three-step practice (no fluff):

Evening Mind Purge (10–15 min): sit and let the day digest.

Weekend Do-Nothing Block (45–60 min): literally sit and do nothing—train stillness.

Morning Sit (phones away): just sit with eyes closed; notice tiny gaps of silence between thoughts.

Find your truth: Choose the work that leaves you more peaceful, not more frantic.

Parting truth: “I am the universe—maybe a drop, but made of the same water.”

Try this week

Tonight: 10–15 min mind purge.

Weekend: 45–60 min do nothing.

Mornings: 15–20 min just sit—no technique, no measuring.

Quotes

“Spirituality is the experience of your own life force.”

“You are the owner of the mind not its slave.”

“Meditation isn’t something you do; it’s what happens when the mind becomes quiet.”
