Meet Vinny, 

Vinny is the Founder and CEO of Stress Undone. This is a long delayed episode that you must listen to. 

Earlier on the show I got amazing guests that talk about Nutrition, Fitness, Diet, Exercise, mindset and all separately, but this episode gives you a complete different point of view since stress will be included in each and everyone of them. 

Did you know that working out is stress itself? Did you hear about Nutritional Stress? All those things are real!!

Did you know that over-working out can actually add more negative stress to your body?

Vinny emphasizes on the importance of Healing in before Healing out, but what does it mean? 

You are always taught to eat healthy, workout, etc. you have heard all of those a million times but there is more to it all. There are so many truths shared in this episodes that no one really talks but Vinny does in this episode which is so refreshing. 

This episode will defiantly open you up to a whole new way of looking at things.

Meet Farah,

Farah is founder of the Farah foundation. She is a writer, creator, and positivity champ to inspire life.

(Note: Be prepared for this episode it is one of the most emotional ones yet)

Farah first learnt about her autoimmune disease around 17 years ago, where she was told that there was no cure for her illness. That meant that her body will constantly be changing physically, from her skin to her muscles and bones. She shares about how confused, angry, and bitter at everyone and everything she was the first few years, but most importantly, she talks about her transformational journey, a journey inward that took her from the feeling of hopelessness, fear, confusion, bitterness, to being a source of inspiration, motivation, and power for others.

This episode is all for you. Thank you for being part of the journey and making this such a wonderful experience and building such an empowering supportive community. Decided to do something special to connect with you all!! Check out the full episode and make sure you DM me if you would like to be part of that.

Meet Hamza Nabulsi, Hamza shares more of his journey transitioning from being an Industrial Engineer to following his passion in the fitness world. He shares more about why he has chosen this path and what it means to him, as well as addresses the amount of discipline and commitment it takes to stay consistent to see the results. He talks about the importance of having the right mindset every single day to keep him going, he also talks about how having a daily routine helps keeps him on track. You can truly see how much he cares for his clients and how much time and energy he spends tailoring a unique fitness/ nutritional plan for each one of them. I also asked him about his thoughts on veganism, cheat meals and supplements. 

What is the difference between Shame and Guilt?

According to @brenebrown, a research professor who has spent the past two decades studying courage, vulnerability, shame, and empathy, Shame = "I am bad" and Guilt =" I did something bad".

Shame attacks you as an Individual, meanwhile guilt focuses on your behaviour. When you feel attacked that way, you feel that you are not worthy of love and belonging. So, when children are parented by shame, they tend to grow up struggling with self-worth and self-loathing issues. It teaches them that they are inherently not worthy of love and that stays on with that individual as they grow older causing them to behave in self-destructive manners such as violence, aggression, depression, addiction, eating disorders and bullying.

Check out the full episode to learn more about the difference between shame and guilt? What does shame really look like? and how to become more shame resilient.If you are looking to build relationships based on Love, Belonging and Story you are going to love this brief solo episode. 

Meet Kristine Faza. 

Kristine is a Certified Health Coach & Yoga Instructor. She also happens to be a friend of mine, p.s we used to go to the same school as kids. In this episode you will learn more about her story, and what it means to be a Health Coach and why did she choose to follow this path? We talk about meditation, prayer, being present, relationship with food and the anxiety that comes around it. We also address the subconscious mind, gratitude, gut health and the holistic approach to life and even question if the words of affirmations (that everyone talks about) really works?

Meet Alice Law, I got the chance to meet Alice and briefly learn about what she does and found her work inspiring. In this episode she will share more about her story and what drove her into diving in within and work now on helping other people calm down and deal with stress. Her story surprised me (Seriously, never judge anyone, you have no idea what their story is). After going through the challenges that she talks about and finding a way through the chaos to keep herself grounded, she has decided to support others in living the calmest version of themselves. She had no expectations of ever doing what she was doing as she wanted to pursue her interest in fashion but things changed around leading her in this path. Check out the full episode.
