  • #19 Gordana Biernat - The power of positivity

    In today's episode of the Mind Set Game podcast, I sat down with Gordana Biernat.

    Oprah Winfrey has included her on the Super Soul 100 list; a team of awakened leaders and visionaries with a mission to guide and inspire. Oprah named her a Super Soul 100 Teacher.

    She has been featured on Oprah.com, Huffington Post, Times of India and many other major news aggregators and blogs as well as printed magazines and publications.

    Her book Know The Truth – Why Knowing Who You Are Changes Everything

    Gordana says: "My purpose is to help people realise how powerful and unique we all truly are."

    In the episode we spoke about: everything in your life happens for a reason, turning a negative into a positive. Life is more like a dance as opposed to a journey, public perception of laziness (laid back personality/character). Excelling but not knowing who you really are, stretching the boundaries, testing your mind. What does the word DISABLED actually mean? (what is average - the NORM), life seems to revolve around money and finally what tip would you recommend to someone to improve their lives?

    In addition to that research, Danny took classes in biochemistry, clinical nutrition, micronutrient interactions and physiology. Previous to this Danny also completed a BSc. Degree in biology and physics education and spent a year teaching these subjects.

    As well as producing media content, Danny also works as a performance nutritionist to professional MMA fighters, professional boxers and competitive powerlifters. He has consulted several teams in a number of sports.

    In the episode, we spoke about his thoughts on the BBC's MMA weight cutting documentary?

Combat sports and vitamin D deficiency and finally the Athlete mindset.
