Welcome back to The DMC Podcast, in today's episode we talk about Data Privacy and Governance. Do you know what happens to your data after you sign up to Google? Do you wonder what happens when you've searched for something? Why is it that every time you buy something from Amazon your Instagram magically has the advert for it? These are all good questions and during this episode, Manny and Joseph delve into these topics as well as talk about their own thoughts on what companies handle their data. 

When we put things into perspective you begin to notice how much data these companies have on us as individuals and with that information we have an expectation for the companies to have a level of responsibility. Do you trust the companies with the data they have about you?

Welcome back to The DMC Podcast, in today's episode we talk about burnout. We all can suffer from burn out when we try to do so much or we overexert ourselves. Joseph gives us an inside scoop as to why he feels burnout and Manny shares his ideas of what he does to combat it and how focusing on one thing is the best thing to do to combat burn out. They also discuss being intentional when doing "nothing", how to use a day in the week to recharge the batteries when necessary and whether healthy competition and accountability can be a driving force to prevent the burnout.

Do you agree or disagree what was mentioned if so, let us know we are always looking for feedback and the insights of the users.

Hope you guys enjoy the podcasts  :)

Welcome back to The DMC Podcast, in today's episode we talk about Toxic Norms. Toxic norms are societal norms which may or may not have survived the tests of times which have negative effects on society in general. An example of a toxic norm is toxic masculinity, a set of attitudes and ways of behaving stereotypically associated with or expected of men, regarded as having a negative impact on men and on society as a whole. Manny and Joseph attempt to dissect norms which they have experienced or have witnessed, why they believe these norms still stand today and how they would go about tackling and addressing them.

Today's episode was something a bit different if you want more topics like this to let us know by getting hold of us in the links below!

Welcome back to The DMC Podcast, in today's episode we talk about Acceptance. Acceptance can be split into two categories, accepting of gifts and services and how we accept attributes or traits we hold or others may hold.  We explore these ideas conceptually alongside with some scenarios whereby acceptance is more challenging and how to navigate them.

Acceptance is a challenge with so many different elements to it, where do we start? Do we start to accept ourselves first then reach out to the acceptance of others? Do we go about it in the opposite way - it's a constant struggle for many and it spurs on so many questions so we figured why not give it a try to dissect the meaning of Acceptance and provide our own interpretations and experiences of it.

Hope you guys enjoy the podcasts  :)

Throughout life, we always go about our own business but along the way, we sometimes stumble across people or opportunities and we think do we deserve it? What really is deserving how is it measured, do people deserve more or less than you what is the metric? There are so many unknowns when it comes to this and we can sometimes overcomplicate things by initiating a value upon them and then deciding based on the value we give it whether we live up to it or aka deserve it. However, what if we were able to flip the script what if we tried to initiate whether something deserved us instead when was the last time you did that? In this episode, we talk about this in detail and talk about how to flip the script and what we truly mean by it. 

Hope you guys enjoy the podcasts  :)

Welcome back to The DMC Podcast, in today's episode we talk about boundaries. Boundaries are the concepts which are not as definitive as you may believe them to be in fact they are really malleable. Although, sometimes, we are afraid to turn back or alter our original ideas we set to an employer or people that we are close to as we believe that we lose credibility as individuals however Manny and Joseph address this during the podcast with a real-world example which they encountered. Manny also makes an interesting comparison between promises and boundaries and how they may seem more similar than they do on the surface. 

Hope you guys enjoy the podcasts  :)

Merry Christmas! We hope you enjoyed the holidays and have had a great time. As we come to an end to the year we wanted to discuss goal setting and New Year Resolutions, usually, this happens at the tail end of the year and based on what has happened to us in the last 12 months so that we can move forwards to creating a better next year.  Manny and Joseph discuss in depth about how goals are set or what they do to set goals, they also talk about whether they agree with the idea of New Year Resolutions and if not what they do instead before the turn around to the new year. 

Hope you guys enjoy the podcasts  :)
