  • 198. Why a growth mindset is essential for success

    In this week's Podcast, I discuss the concept of a growth mindset, which is the belief that intelligence and talent can be worked for and improved over time, as opposed to a fixed mindset, which assumes that everyone has a set amount of intelligence.


    I speak about promoting a growth mindset education in low-income schools and highlight the advantages of developing resilience and people skills through adversity. The podcast emphasizes the importance of prioritizing learning over seeking approval, being willing to make mistakes and experience challenges, and cultivating grit and perseverance.

    Cultivate a growth mindset in all areas of life and continue to learn and develop, regardless of age or circumstances.

    This week's Thursday Thoughts shares tips for becoming more disciplined, including mastering small tasks, removing distractions, creating a supportive environment, avoiding self-shaming, building habits, and focusing on discipline rather than motivation.

    I discuss a reflective approach and make minor adjustments to achieve success, using a countdown to motivate tasks and make them easier. I also emphasize the importance of building habits and encourage viewers to share their own tips on self-discipline, as it can positively impact all aspects of life.

  • 196. Reclaiming your life from mental illness Ft Annie Power

    On this week's podcast Annie Powers and I discuss the impact of childhood neglect on an individual's emotional health and behaviour as an adult, and how it can lead to anger, people-pleasing, and emotional unavailability.


    We also talk about the stigma of mental health and self-harm, including the importance of seeking professional help, the impact of being medicated at a young age, and the therapeutic qualities of nature.

    Additionally, we emphasize the importance of personal responsibility and choice in how one shows up each day, the importance of forgiveness, and being open to people. Finally, we provide advice on how to overcome the feeling of being stuck and out of control in life, including starting small, setting achievable goals, and listening to one's gut instincts.
