Mi365's Podcast

“Stress and meaning are inextricably linked. You don’t stress out about things you don’t care about, and you can’t create a meaningful life without experiencing some stress.” - Kelly McGonigal Stress, is a normal part of life that many believe shortens one’s lifespan, but this is not really the case, for the true culprit is our negative response to it. The tensions we have can in effect strengthen us if we take time to look at it differently and react positively. It all lies in our ability to manage the various stressors in our lives. This is what we are going to delve into in this episode, the second part of our current theme on wellness. Likewise, in the succeeding podcasts we are going to dissect the seven key aspects of well-being. Health is our greatest asset; therefore, we must take time to really think about the ways we can enrich and prolong the time we have on this earth without being a burden to others. We owe it to ourselves to live life to the fullest. Come and join me on this quest of transformat

“The only thing that stands between you and your wellbeing is a simple fact: you have allowed your thoughts and emotions to take instruction from outside rather than within.” - Sadhguru Health, is our most important asset that we often take for granted, thinking we would always be invulnerable. It is only when we reach the point of no return that we realise what we have been doing has slowly destroyed us. Most of us create conditions every single day that will lead to unwanted outcomes. Do we really have to wait for a final diagnosis before we act? Why not take the initiative today to live better longer. Join me on a new series of podcasts addressing one of the significant life domains – your health and well-being. I will delve into how you can navigate through health challenges and make wellness work. Learn the key and effective ways for a better quality of life. Know how to have more vitality, avoid debilitating diseases, and live the best days of your life. Have new perspectives that can result in positive

“A lot of the conflict you have in your life exists simply because you’re not living in alignment; you’re not being true to yourself.” - Steve Maraboli Attachment and authenticity, our two needs as human beings that if not managed well can lead us to living the lives we do not want. Being authentic gives us freedom, joy, and fulfillment but it is quite challenging to do, for when we become really attached to this world, our current operandi is to never be ourselves. Although attachments help us survive, they can also limit us from being who we were meant to be. We need to be more aware and accepting of the attachments we have and let go of those that do not serve us. Being true to ourselves is a decision we must consciously and intentionally make every single day. These are just some of the points that Dr. Ray Sylvester and I have been delving into in the past few weeks as we started a new series of podcasts centering on the all-important subject of attachment and authenticity. Join us today, as we embark on

“Attachment is the great fabricator of illusions; reality can be attained only by someone who is detached.” - Simone Weil​​​​​​​ Are you merely surviving? Would it not be great if you were thriving? We survive through our attachments but thrive by being authentic. Authenticity is being true to yourself, and standing up for your values and principles in the metaphysical state. It is the result of who you think you are and the things to which you are attached. There is nothing better than finding our own unique gifts and sharing them with others. We can all contribute and make the world a better place in our own distinct way. However, most of us are governed by our attachments because of the enormous impact of what we are told and the trauma we experience. This prevents us from discovering our true potential. For us to be who we truly are, we need to be aware of our negative attachments, detach from them, and find positivity. Join us in today’s episode to gain more insights on how you can master a balance betwe

“Authenticity is a collection of choices that we have to make every day. It is about the choice to show up and be real. The choice to be honest. The choice to let our true selves be seen.” - Brené Brown Our attachments begin to form from inception as part of our survival mechanism. They are our way of navigating through the world we live in. However, there are those that limit us from being our authentic selves. It is therefore imperative that we recognise and let go of the ones that do not serve us, as well as understand our necessity for authenticity. How do we do this when our attachments are connected to our everyday interactions? These are some of the points that Dr. Ray Sylvester and I will delve into today’s episode. This is already the third part of our new series of podcasts.  Join us in our profound conversations on the incredibly significant matters of identity, attachment, and authenticity. We will also further touch on the impact they have on our lives and the importance of looking at who we are

“As soon as extreme attachment comes, a man loses himself, he is no more master of himself, he is a slave.” - Swami Vivekananda Are you having difficulty getting out of the situation you are in? We all pursue to veer away from where we are, but we often get entangled and instead fall deeper into the conditions we do not want. Although attachments are part of our lives, being overly concerned about them is detrimental to us. It is only when we learn to disengage that we discover our authentic self and gain more peace and fulfillment. Come with us as we venture deeper into the realm of attachments in our pursuit for authenticity. Tune in to this second episode of a new series of podcasts to gain more insights. Learn how to acknowledge and safely detach from the tangible measures that others have imposed on you. Avoid self-destruction. Have the power to stand up for your true self. Highlights: References to us are typically connected to tangible measures that we recognize. People use tangible measures to protec

“Authenticity is the daily practice of letting go of who we think we’re supposed to be and embracing who we are.” - Brené Brown Are your attachments holding you back? We all have attachments; they are part of our needs. However, most of us give-in to them which in turn, make us live less than who we can be. This does not need to be your reality, for the power lies in what you decide to do with your attachments that can lead you to who you were truly meant to be. Nothing is more fulfilling than being your authentic self, but how do you remain true to yourself and navigate through a world that is full of biases and subjectivity that predisposes you to be otherwise? This is one of the things we will address starting today and in the upcoming episodes. Join us, as Dr. Ray Sylvester and I embark on a new series of podcasts to explore the two basic human needs - attachment and authenticity. In this 5-part sequence, we will have deeper conversations to help you discover your own uniqueness and capabilities.  Come wi

“A short practice that you do every day is better than a long practice you keep putting off to tomorrow.” - Kelly McGonigal Are you making your health a priority? Health is our most important wealth; without it, we would not achieve what we want to accomplish. However, most people do not stop to realise the things they do that adversely affect their well-being until it is too late. They avoid doing things that cause inconvenience. These have resulted in a staggering number of individuals afflicted with debilitating illnesses and even death. The good news is, we can still do something to reverse the statistics. We have the power within ourselves to break habits that are causing us to be less than we can be and learn new ones that will help us live a more meaningful life. Our health lies in what we do every single day. Tune in as I share with you the key areas to better health, the challenges we face, the reasons why we do so little for our betterment, and more importantly how we can live fully. I want to empow

“Incredible change happens in your life when you decide to take control of what you have power over instead of craving control over what you don’t.” - Steve Maraboli In a world full of chaos and distractions, how can you rule over your life to have a meaningful and happy existence that reflects your true essence? Are you living as you should? Can there be more than the one you currently have? Existing in today’s macrocosm is challenging, but that does not mean that you must live less than you can be.

**Podcast Show Notes: Episode 28 - Spotlight on Transformation: Featuring Suzy Beaumont, Former BBC Radio Producer and Entrepreneur** **Episode Description:** In this special episode, we take a nostalgic trip down memory lane, celebrating the remarkable transformations of some of our past Members of the Month. We’re thrilled to be joined by our incredible Member of the Month, Suzy Beaumont, a former BBC radio producer turned successful entrepreneur.  ### Episode Highlights: **Suzy's Journey of Transformation** - Suzy shares the profound changes she has experienced through years of coaching with Mi365, discussing how shifts in her diet, habits, and overall behavior have significantly impacted her happiness and well-being. - She opens up about the challenges of personal development and the importance of testing new ideas by asking the key question, "Is that true for me?" **'Change Your World' Conference** - Suzy discusses her inspiring 'Change Your World' conference, detailing how she found the courage to make

“What we call the personality often is a jumble of genuine traits and adopted coping styles that do not reflect our true self at all but the loss of it.” - Dr. Gabor Maté The journey within is a challenging but fascinating feat. It is one that we do not typically go on because of the fear of what we might discover. The world we live in does not encourage us to explore deep within ourselves, instead, we are persuaded to be what is perceived as the norm. For many of us, what we know as our identity is in fact a result of how we cope with our environment. This in turn denies us the opportunity to be our true selves. However, it is our authentic selves that allow us to navigate through life’s challenges and live a more meaningful life. Knowing oneself gives us peace and happiness. It is for these reasons that I will share my insights from my own journey of self-discovery and reinvention. I will also delve into some of my learnings from Gabor Mate’s book "The Myth of Normal, Trauma, Illness and Healing in a Toxic

“You will never find yourself until you face the truth.” - Pearl Bailey What is the reality of where you are? Can your current circumstances support what you aspire to do? Sometimes, life gives us challenges that throw us out of balance. Reality can hit hard and cause us to do things that harm ourselves to cope with what we are experiencing. I, for one, am not immune to this. I am just like you. I am human with all my faults and deficiencies. I falter at times. Today, I want to honestly share with you the truth about where I am, the reasons behind it, as well as the things I am going to do. It is quite ironic that, as a well-known health and fitness professional, I am now having afflictions with my well-being. However, I refuse to be defined by the situation I am in. I will rise to the challenge and be who I truly am. I invite you to come on this journey with me as I face the reality of where I am. I want to live and lead by example, to inspire and help you realise that you too can overcome life’s adversitie

“You have power over your mind – not outside events. Realize this, and you will find strength.” - Marcus Aurelius How many times have you tried to hurt yourself? You may not have harmed yourself physically, but did you know that you are destroying yourself by some of the things you do? Quitting, procrastinating, getting distracted, overworrying, doubting yourself, and telling negative narratives are a few of these self-harming acts. All of us are guilty of self-sabotage. There are times we willfully damage ourselves because we think it is easier and safer for us to stay within our comfort zones rather than to be vulnerable and go against resistance. Self-sabotage prevents you from realizing your true potential and living the life you deserve. However, you do not have to remain in this state. You are more than where you are or what you think. You always have the choice to consciously reinvent yourself to be better. It is time to break free from the bondage of self-destruction. Listen in and get to know the si

“Who looks outside, dreams; who looks inside, awakes.” - Carl Gustav Jung Is your mind holding you back from being who you were meant to be? The mind is a powerful channel that can either limit us or bring us immense success and fulfillment by realizing our true potential. It makes our body move in ways that can benefit or impair us. If we allow others to control our thinking, we will become who others want us to be. Similarly, we can become stagnant when fears, doubts, and frustrations occupy us, however, the power to orchestrate our thoughts is within us. Would it not be better if we mastered our own minds and be who we want to be? This is the reason I want to share different perspectives with you. I also hope to help you move through the difficult seasons of your life as you tread your own unique path. Tune in as we start a new series of podcasts on mastering mindset. Understand what it takes to unleash the potential of the mind and bring your best self forward. Reach out to us and go to a place where you

“It is literally true that you can succeed best and quickest by helping others to succeed.” - Napoleon Hill Can someone break out of poverty and undesirable cultural norms to be better as well as make a difference? This may seem impossible for countless individuals, yet my incredibly altruistic guest today, Dr. Tererai Trent has proven that anyone can achieve anything she puts her heart into. She is internationally recognized and has been dubbed by Oprah as her “All-time favorite guest”. Despite her meager beginnings and the inequalities she suffered as a Zimbabwean child; she has now become one of the top ten most influential women in the world. Listen in to know how she refused to be defined by where she was. Share her story and be part of her mission of giving back by providing education to thousands of deprived children in Zimbabwe.

“Life gives no one immunity against adversity, but life gives everyone the power of positive thought, which is sufficient to master all circumstances of adversity and convert them into benefits.” - Napoleon Hill Are you feeling stressed out, anxious, and depressed? Have life’s challenges led you to the brink of hopelessness? Depression and anxiety are just two of the mental illnesses that continue to affect millions of people all over the world. These have become major concerns because mental well-being impacts our psychological, emotional, social, physical, and economic states. Most individuals afflicted with mental distress often do not speak out nor seek help for they feel ashamed and fear what other people might say or do. They do not want to be stigmatized nor rejected by others. How then could they or even those in the midst of life’s most daunting challenges cope if they remain silent? How can we better manage stress and adversities? These are some of the key points that my guest, Emma Weaver and I wil

“Liberation from oppressive and stressful external circumstances is essential, but that is only possible if we first liberate ourselves from the tyranny of our ingrained biology of belief.” - Gabor Maté Who are you? At a higher level, answering this question is a dilemma. It is not as simple as saying your name, because the real you are more than the label and circumstances you are in. Searching for your true self involves detaching yourself from the beliefs and ideas that society has imposed on you. How do you do this in a world that bombards you with insurmountable challenges and keeps you attached to status and material things? These are some of the insights we are going to delve into in this eleventh part of the series ‘Where you are is not who you are.’ Dr. Ray Sylvester and I organically started this game-changing sequence in November 2023.
