The Mojo Sessions

Alicia Rodriguez is a writer, storyteller and personal coach. Based in the beautiful Algarve region of Portugal, Alicia runs retreats for people going through a transition or facing a challenging period. She works with entrepreneurs who need to step away from the noise in their lives to rest, recalibrate, and renew their vision for their lives. Her memoir, 'The Shaman's Wife: A Mystical Journey of Surrender and Self-Discovery', is based on her eight-year relationship with an Ecuadorian Shaman. In this fascinating conversation, we discuss what Alicia learned about shamanism and spirituality, most importantly, what she learned about herself and how that relates to the leaders she coaches.   LINKS   Alicia's website https://aliciamrodriguez.com/   Book on Amazon The Shaman's Wife: A Mystical Journey of Surrender and Self-Discovery The Mojo Sessions website www.themojosessions.com   The Mojo Sessions on Patreon www.patreon.com/TheMojoSessions Full transcripts of the show (plus time codes) are available on Patreon.   The Mojo Sessions on Facebook www.facebook.com/TheMojoSessions   Gary on LinkedIn www.linkedin.com/in/gary-bertwistle   Gary on Twitter www.twitter.com/GaryBertwistle   The Mojo Sessions on Instagram www.instagram.com/themojosessions   If you like what you hear, we'd be grateful for a review on Apple Podcasts or Spotify.

Understanding twentysomethings as a company owner, C-suite Executive, parent or leader is a hot topic. The NY Times called our guest Dr Meg Jay “the patron saint of striving youth”, and her TED Talk “Why 30 Is Not the New 20” is among the most watched ever.  Dr Jay earned a doctorate in clinical psychology from the University of California, Berkeley and maintains a private practice in Charlottesville specialising in twentysomethings. So many twentysomethings are struggling with anxiety and depression, and this conversation about The Twentysomething Treatment explores why and unveils a ground-breaking approach that prioritises skills over pills.   LINKS   The Mojo Sessions website www.themojosessions.com   The Mojo Sessions on Patreon www.patreon.com/TheMojoSessions Full transcripts of the show (plus time codes) are available on Patreon.   The Mojo Sessions on Facebook www.facebook.com/TheMojoSessions   Gary on LinkedIn www.linkedin.com/in/gary-bertwistle   Gary on Twitter www.twitter.com/GaryBertwistle   The Mojo Sessions on Instagram www.instagram.com/themojosessions   If you like what you hear, we'd be grateful for a review on Apple Podcasts or Spotify. Happy listening!   © 2024 Gary Bertwistle.  All Rights Reserved.

Dr Abbie Maroño is a scientist & practitioner of human behaviour who currently consults to the Secret Service. The US Department of State has recognised her extraordinary achievements, placing her in the top 1% of her field. Abbie completed a PhD in Psychology and became a Professor of Psychology at 23. A guest in Season 3, Episode 316, Abbie spoke in depth about trust. Her new book 'Work in Progress' delves into the science of shame and empowerment. Many books on empowerment are well-intentioned but overlook the science behind the experience of shame, how we reconcile self-perception and our surroundings, and how we achieve empowerment.

Dr Jane Foster, a leading researcher and educator with a PhD in health and education, noticed how the pervasive culture of blame, criticism and judgement was damaging and destructive for teams and individuals. Janes's work equips us with the means to manage our daily stresses by changing our perspective and creating new neural pathways. Jane's program, Emotional Resilience, was created in response to the increasing number of people who pretended to appear fine on the outside but, on the inside, weren’t coping at all, instead teaching self-regulation, replacing blame and judgement with responsibility, empathy and compassion.   LINKS   The Mojo Sessions website www.themojosessions.com   The Mojo Sessions on Patreon www.patreon.com/TheMojoSessions Full transcripts of the show (plus time codes) are available on Patreon.   The Mojo Sessions on Facebook www.facebook.com/TheMojoSessions   Gary on LinkedIn www.linkedin.com/in/gary-bertwistle   Gary on Twitter www.twitter.com/GaryBertwistle   The Mojo Sessions on Instagram www.instagram.com/themojosessions   If you like what you hear, we'd be grateful for a review on Apple Podcasts or Spotify. Happy listening!   © 2024 Gary Bertwistle.  All Rights Reserved.
