  • Is Faith Pre-Determined or Chosen? - 184

    We don’t have to chase happiness, we have to choose happiness. And that's exactly what we focus on in today's episode. We discuss how in today's world, the problem is the fact that fighting for what we want has been almost engrained in us..

    Everyone has the freedom to choose what they want, but the issue comes when people dont know how to access this freedom.

    If you feel like right now your faith is predetermined, the only remedy that you can have is acceptance. Because at the end of the day, you can't change anything that is bound to happen, can you?

    "Man will never be able to describe absolute truth with total accuracy because the notions used in our attempts to describe the truth, are of themselves relative."



    This is a quick reminder for you to give us a 5 ⭐️ review on Spotify or iTunes if you haven’t already. Much love!

  • Colin Campbell - Quitting Alcohol & Enhancing Your Life Through Fitness - 183

    Born and raised near Glasgow, Scotland, our guest today played rugby throughout his childhood and that has got him into weightlifting and strength and conditioning. Colin's career has always been in the business development space after having graduated from University. Our conversation took place purely because of his involvement with fitness. That all dates back in 2017 when Colin really started to take his personal brand seriously documenting his fitness journey on Instagram. 

    We discuss how Colin used fitness to improve all arread of his life and why he considers that if you can’t govern your own body and responsibilities, you can’t govern other people either.

    We dive into an interesting subject about how a lot of people achieve massive success in their careers at the expense of their health.. and why this is not the path you should strive towards.

    Colin shares a story dating from 2019 when he was made redundant after 8 weeks of only just joining a new company …it was very tough at the time, but Colin managed to keep his sanity and action forward. By doing so he got an introduction to the world’s biggest insurance broker at their office in Glasgow.

    Colin shares what his biggest goals are for the future,  but he also shares why he’s more process-driven than outcome-driven which he found very insightful. On top of this all, we also talk about his experiences with alcohol and why and how he decided to go sober in 2019.

  • ZABO - The Behind The Scenes Story of Succeeding As a Music Artist - 181

    They say music is an outburst of the soul... what we know for sure is that our guest today has really put his soul into his music! Born in Canada, Dan Szabo knows as ZABO, has started to tap into his drive from a young age doing bodyweight exercises. He always knew that the conventional 9 to 5 lifestyle was not for him and luckily got introduced to the Dance music scene about a decade ago. Shortly after he got interested in making his own music, and the rest is history... No, but really: 9 years later, he is an unique and upcoming music artist that is going to shake the electronic/dance scene. He's most known for songs like "Breathe" , "Drown" or "Crusade" which together have over 15 million listens on Spotify alone. ZABO was kind enough to sit down and walk us through his journey, his lessons and incredible experiences. He also shared how at the end of 2019, he got invited to play three shows in China, and at the time he was not even aware what a huge audience he has there. All in all we had an incredible discussion touching on creativity, drive and philosophical questions. Make sure to listen to this one on headphones as we've prepared some gems for you. Enjoy!

  • Daksh Jindal - How Your Biggest Failure Can Change The World - 178

    This is not an episode about failure, but one about what striving out of one’s comfort zone feels like. Our guest today has reinvented himself by moving from his original country, India to the UK to study robotics. He’s now got a reputable position as an electronics engineer for one of the most reputable automotive brands in the world, and is also doing mentorship on the side. From having to live frugally during his university years to opening and scaling a youtube channel and instagram presence, Daksh has read hundreds of self-help books which he applied on his journey.

    His mission is to help teenage Indians that can’t leave the country develop healthy habits and mindset to build a good life for themselves.

    If that wasn’t enough, this man’s biggest goal is to create his own education system.

    From philosophy, stoicism to the importance of habits, and avoiding acting on impulses, we navigated a wide as well  as deep spectrum of topics during our conversation.

    "We are just amplifiers of what’s been said before. We are making old ideas relevant to modern times"

    “If you want to do something long-term, you need to calm down your impulses"

  • Leah Scottie - Cold Exposure and The Forgotten Teacher of Men - 175

    Our guest today had to go through a complete transformation after her 16 years of marriage came to an end. Suddenly, 95% of the people in her life left and she was left on her own to figure it all out. Someone else would’ve thrown in the towel at that point, but not Leah. Battling her thoughts and situation at the time, she was fortunate to be introduced to Wim Hof. Shortly after she started following the WHM religiously every single day. It didn’t take long until Leah came to realise how powerful the technique really was and then decided to study and become a certified Wim Hof Instructor.

    She came on the podcast to share her story, as well as talk about the benefits of WHM at length. Not only that, but Leah opens up and shares one of her most transformative experiences in a cold river. She describes it like having her body separated from the mind and simply feeling one with everything around.

    We talk about cold exposure and how it can be used by anyone to gain focus, energy, immunity and overall master their mind.
