You Can Shine episodes

  • Episode 2 – Cultivate Calm in Crisis with Dr Jeffrey M Schwartz
    A special and timely discussion with my dear friend, leading expert in neuroplasticity, OCD and mindfulness, and co-author of The Wise Advocate – The Inner Voice of Strategic Leadership, Dr Jeffrey M Schwartz.
    In this episode we examine effective, validated and practical ways to cultivate calm in crisis – how to ease stress, anxiety and fear.
    We discuss the important role our perceptions and inner narratives play, and the brain’s propensity to panic and ‘freeze’ under ‘threat’. Importantly, we explore ways for you to re-centre yourself for greater calm, peace and resilience.
    Learn from a leading expert in the fields of neuroscience, mindfulness and psychiatry, and author of over 100 scientific publications. Dr Schwartz has been featured globally on prominent TV shows, including Oprah, 20/20, Today Show and Larry King. He was even a consultant to Martin Scorsese and Leonardo DiCaprio on The Aviator (and appears with them on the bonus DVD extras of that film).
    Tune in, open your mind and heart, and be resourced and empowered.

  • Episode 1 – Abandonment, surviving cancer and finding purpose with Ray Weekes
    My first podcast interview features a truly heart-centred service oriented leader, father, husband, mentor, adjunct professor and business leader – Ray Weekes.
    This episode examines what it takes to keep life in check, to keep your health in check, and to keep your ethical compass steady and strong.
    We talk of many life themes including abandonment, resilience, leadership, fearlessness, drive, integrity and purpose.
    Learn from a man who rejected bribes in his senior leadership roles, forgave his abusive father who abandoned the family when he was 3, overcame aggressive prostate cancer over a decade ago, and contributes to the lives and businesses of many around the country.
    Tune in, open your mind and heart, and be inspired.
