The Resilient Minds

When you love what you do, there's nothing wrong with working every day. And that's the key to everything - love!

Our efforts and endeavors shouldn't just be about the money we make or the respect we get from other people, they should reflect the deepest and innermost part of our soul. That way, when we find success, we can be secure in how valuable it is to us. We can be free of relying on other people to feel good about ourselves or to validate us, a true freedom that no one can take away.

But that kind of love for ourselves takes time to build, and it requires the same care and attention that we would put into any other meaningful relationship. It took Lauren Courtney years to build a strong connection with herself, and convert all that energy into success, but all through the process she never lost faith in her ability to achieve what she wanted.

By aligning her goals with her heart, she was able to channel an incredible power into her actions, and work with the universal force of change to bring about something incredible. Whether it's with mantra, meditation, training or just showing up for yourself every day, fostering a sense of genuine self belief has given her everything she needs to keep moving forward, whatever happens.

And you can do the same. We all can. Just be patient. Work with yourself first. Never forget that change without begins with transformation within, and that by achieving true alignment between our mind, body and soul, there's nothing we cannot do.

These are some of the tips that Lauren Courtney leaves us in this episode of The Resilient Minds Podcast.

There are so many expectations placed on all of us, all the time. By society, by our friends and family, and especially by ourselves. We are told how to behave, what to do and who we should be, and suddenly we find ourselves on autopilot, just going through life accepting things, but not actually living them.

And we have to stop. We are all worthy of so much more. The most radical act of love you can take in this life is to love yourself, sincerely and with truth, and allow yourself to be free, unshackled, wherever you go. No matter how much we change ourselves to suit the preferences of others, it will never be enough, because the love that we receive is not for us, it's for a fraudulent idea of ourselves, a character we are playing. It can be exhausting.

By showing your true self, honest and unfiltered, we open a doorway for others to love us. Virginia Salas Kastilio wants everyone to know that it's okay to be imperfect, or angry, or upset, it's okay to bear the scars of experience and struggle, because it doesn't make us any less powerful or amazing. What's important is that we are the wholeness of ourselves. That is the foundation of healing.

People will pick up on the sincerity of who you are, and be drawn to your powerful energy, but more than that, you will be drawn back to yourself, a source of loving support that will be with you always, wherever you go.

So for us, as leaders, we must build spaces in which people feel safe to start peeling back those layers, we have to offer them a sense of security, the power of understanding, prioritize their needs and provide the support they need to reconnect with themselves.

Everything we need is already inside us. It's something we're told again and again, so often that it can sometimes sound like a cliché, but it's true.

If we have the courage to let go, to stop struggling against the flow of life and instead dive headfirst into the current, allowing our feelings to guide us and our hearts to absorb the wisdom of every experience, we will truly break free from fear. The things in life which resonate with us deserve our attention, our energy, and through them we can find a path towards a more fulfilled and conscious version of ourselves

It can be overwhelming at times, and that's okay. That's life. Things happen that we can't predict, but we can prepare ourselves to deal with them in the best possible way. With love, with respect, with wisdom. We can return to nature, and uncover our fundamental essence.

Jeff Scult's journey has been a long one, and it's not over yet. He's determined to help us all reframe, release and reveal the powerful truth which lies beneath the surface of this human experience. By honoring the process of creation and surrendering to the energy of life, he has initiated a movement for a better, brighter world, where we all find the gold within ourselves.

These are some of the tips that Jeff Scult leaves us in this episode of The Resilient Minds Podcast.

After three decades amplifying other's disruptive ideas and inspirations, Jeff pivoted in 2016 to be the architect of his own vision - One Golden Thread - a "lovestyle" clothing brand whose "unisexy" minimalist designs are devoted to the principles of Interbeing - nature and us as one - to make a net positive impact for Earth, us and self.

Jeff and One Golden Thread was lauded by FORBES in Feb 2021 for "raising the sustainability bar for Gen R : Regeneration." Jeff also serves conscious leaders to unearth the golden essence of their mission through his brand soul language consulting, "ConSculting", all in the name of igniting transcendent truth for another.

Jeff considers his greatest life achievement mentoring two at-risk/father-less boys for 11 years in a Big Brother's Program in the early 2000's. Both are loving fathers today.

To change the world we must first change ourselves, so even if your goal is the unity of an entire community you can't afford to neglect establishing unity within yourself first.

Leadership is not a single person's job, it's a collective expression of dedication towards a goal, where everyone has their part to play, and each individual recognizes that their highest value is as a part of something greater than themselves.

But to reach that level of harmony with others we must understand who we are, what we believe, and what unique value we bring with us to any endeavour. Reconnecting with who you really are at the deepest level of your being, embracing everything that makes you 'you,' and allowing that sense of awareness to integrate with our efforts will inevitably guide you to being in the right place at the right time.

Canay Atalay has been at the forefront of the conscious leadership revolution for a long time, and she understands that by being true to ourselves we are able to be true to other people as well, and that together we can achieve incredible transformations. Whether we take one step at a time or a great leap of faith, moving closer to our fundamental nature is the path to integrity, and the root of our real value.

These are some of the tips that Canay Atalay leaves us in this episode of The Resilient Minds Podcast.

Understanding our own role in the situations of our life is a profound learning process which provides critical insight into who we are, and how we can move forward.

All of us have the power to make change, to initiate transformation in our own lives and in the lives of people around us, and the moment we can let go of our own ego and act out of love, the results can be phenomenal.

Lewis Raymond Taylor knows that sometimes what holds us back from healing is our expectation of other people, of how they should behave towards us or the role they are supposed to play, even though that is not within our power to control. Instead, he recommends opening our hearts and taking the action we believe will bring the most benefit to everyone, regardless of who is wrong or right in a given situation.

If we can master this commitment to compassion, we are freed from the limitations of our past, and we can move forward in life turning adversity into an asset and transforming our pain into power. Being right is less important than doing what is right.

The truth is that we can never really know what the end result of our experiences will be, but if we dedicate ourselves to helping others, then at least we can be sure that something positive will come out of them.

These are some of the tips that Lewis Raymond Taylor leaves us in this episode of The Resilient Minds Podcast.

Lewis Raymond Taylor is an entrepreneur and world-traveller who found clarity the hard way. Overcoming substance misuse, trauma and mental illness, he transformed his life and made his way from prison to starting a 6-figure business and travelling the world. Lewis wants his incredible journey to inspire others, and aside from volunteering with various charities, has become a qualified, CPF accredited life coach, although of course he takes his own unique approach to helping others find success, however they choose to define it.

As we surround ourselves with ambition, there is a danger of being overcome by the warrior inside us all.

Some people like to celebrate that kind of mindset, but where will it lead us in the end?

If we frame our efforts around the idea of struggle, of domination and power, even challenges we have already overcome can become a burden. By defining ourselves as a survivor, as someone who is locked in a struggle against life, then we will be forever focused on what is coming next, always reacting, and never able to live freely in the moment. Survival mode is no way to live a life of abundance!

Sam Gibbs knows the power a frame of mind can have over our life better than most. After spending years trying to 'fix' things that were wrong with him, he realized that beneath all that was an inherent admission that he was somehow 'broken' or 'less than' others. That kind of thinking cannot nourish the love that we have in our hearts, for ourselves or for other people, and in a world where our greatest legacy can only be love, it's our duty to amplify it however we can.

We don't need to be perfect to be happy, we're born to be joyful. We don't need to earn happiness and joy, they're our birthrights. We are not survivors, but thrivers! So soften that warrior's soul and put an end to competition. Start collaborating, start building something together. Start helping other people to help everybody else. Our creativity will shift the world. Be always beginning, always learning. Be curious.

These are some of the tips that Sam Gibbs leaves us in this episode of The Resilient Minds Podcast.

Everyone tries to set boundaries on what we are capable of, limits on what we are able to achieve, often because they're settling for less than what their heart tells them they deserve. It's a self-fulfilling prophecy. Most people accept the limits that society places on them, and never try to push beyond the invisible walls which keep them in their place.

But keep pushing and you will discover that those limitations do not manifest. They are not there. Aim for the moon, reach the treetops and keep on building, regardless of what people say. You will get further than you ever imagined.

For thousands of years people have achieved the mystical, embraced the psychedelic, and manifested the marvelous. They have done things that anyone will tell you are not possible.

David Hans-Barker knows that what people say doesn't matter, not compared to the power of the mind. And in the ancient worlds of gods and mythology, of supernatural powers and superhuman heroes, people believed that extraordinary achievement was possible. And they were right.

The same is true for love.

We are each of us capable of extraordinary love, of giving all of our hearts fully to others without losing anything at all for ourselves. Society tells us that we can't help everyone, that we can't change the world, so most of us will never even try. But there is love enough in our hearts to share with every person in the world, and need enough for all of us to share freely.

So shake off the shackles of society's boundaries and let your mind flow, your heart grow and your soul heal the world.

These are some of the tips that David Hans-Barker leaves us in this episode of The Resilient Minds Podcast.

We all know that ego can lead us astray sometimes, but how can we develop a healthier relationship with our sense of self?

Certainly, denying ourselves and ignoring how we feel is no path to happiness, but always chasing after happiness is a road with no end. Eventually it will leave us totally exhausted, always looking ahead to the next thing, never able to settle, never able to just be present and live in the moment. Regardless of whether it's wealth, fame, popularity, or something else that we feel we need, there will always come a saturation point for our soul.

So maybe, rather than manipulating the external world to try and make it give us what we need, we all need to become more centered. We need to deepen our connection with our internal world, speak its language, become familiar with it, and then we can tap into it as a source of infinite peace and tranquility. These techniques have been taught for thousands of years as meditation, but these days so few of us are willing to put in the time and effort to really engage with them.

We can be so busy moving forward with our lives that we forget to work on the most important relationship we'll ever have. The one with ourselves. We all need to learn to enjoy ourselves, with ourselves and within ourselves, the single source of stability in a world where everything is always changing.

The fallacy of self is a dangerous reality for so many of us these days, and it can lead us astray if we're not careful.

It's easy to see ourselves at the center of everything, to always be looking out for number one. Every decision we make, every dream we hold onto, it's all just about ourselves, about getting something in return, but it doesn't have to be. Turning that perspective on its head and focusing on other people is a powerful engine for success. Reorienting your goals towards making this world a better place for everyone will transform your energy and empower your actions in a way you might never have imagined before.

Like Chris Naugle says, "It's like flying an airplane with a perpetual tailwind."

Chris knows what happens when everything becomes about what we get for ourselves, and how much we can get out of other people. We might find some success in one moment, amass a bunch of money and material wealth, but we can lose it just as easily because it's not built on a strong foundation. Think about it - money comes and goes, that's how it works. We get it with the intention of spending it, holding onto it is only temporary. But working to help others builds something that can last a lifetime. Relationships based on trust, mutual support, love, and wisdom.

So dream of a better world. A more loving world, where people can develop their full potential. Then go out there and make it happen. Success will come, but you might not even notice.

These are some of the tips that Chris Naugle leaves us in this episode of The Resilient Minds Podcast.

Chris has built and owned 19 companies, with his businesses being featured in Forbes, ABC, House Hunters, and his very own HGTV pilot in 2018. He is currently founder of The Money School™, and Money Mentor for The Money Multiplier. As an innovator and visionary in wealth-building and real estate, he empowers entrepreneurs, business owners, and real estate investors with the knowledge of how money works.

We talk about resilience a lot on this podcast, so it's important to remember what that means with someone who knows from personal experience.

It's not always about being 'tough' or only focusing on the masculine energy of life, it's about being compassionate, motivated, and responsible for your choices.

It's about bouncing back from the challenges of life, but with the vision and determination to take you somewhere new. Aren Singh Bahia understands the effort it takes to turn your life around, and how that doesn't always look like going 'back' at all. That's why he believes it's better to talk about 'bouncing forward,' about harnessing the momentum of your experiences and using it to power your transformation.

From wherever you are, you can always take the decision to launch forward in life, to be kinder to those around you, to generate positive impacts for the world or just to love people more openly. You don't have to wait until you hit a low point to 'bounce back.'

Real resilience allows us to overcome difficult times, but it also means holding yourself accountable every step of the way.

Knowing yourself, understanding yourself and purifying your inner world can only ever improve your relationship with what's going on outside, so keep an open heart, a loving soul, and a resilient mind.

These are some of the tips that Aren Singh Bahia leaves us in this episode of The Resilient Minds Podcast.

Aren Singh Bahia is a local businessman, an expat, and yogi. He talks tattoos, vegan food, overcoming addiction and making a fresh start in Ubud. He was born and raised in East Vancouver, Canadian. He has now made a home for himself in Ubud, Bali. After growing up in an environment that led to gangs and addiction, he now owns two of Bali's most beloved centres for art, tattoos, charity and local community bonding. That's when Conscious Arts and Karma House were born. Bahia's new life in Ubud is a world away from his turbulent past, now a dedicated yogi and expat entrepreneur.
