True You - Character Building with Java

It is so important to celebrate other people's success. When others around you achieve success, it is very easy for us to sometimes put them down or give credit to outside factors. However this is not an attractive quality and one that will not help you grow as a person. Instead celebrate other people's success as it will only help you grow as a person in many ways. In this episode, Java talks about how we grow when we celebrate other people's successes. To learn more about character building qualities to become your true self, visit our website here!

Are you open or close-minded? Stubborn or compliant? Empathetic or apathetic?

No matter how many parenting books you read or advice you receive, does anything REALLY prepare you for becoming a parent? If you ask a first time parent with a newborn, their answer will most likely be a big fat NO. Parenting can be the most exhilarating, amazing, scary, and life changing experience you will ever go through. The entire experience from start to finish is so important for our own personal growth as parents and spouses, because it teaches us so much about ourselves and each other. In our discussion today, we have invited Sarah Bilger, mom, wife, full time mechanical engineer, and host of the podcast Entering Motherhood, to talk to us about the importance of being a parent. We go over her experience giving birth to her first and second child while working full time and the struggles that came along in the beginning. Sarah had so many unanswered questions, it felt like no one talks about how insane it is to be a parent. So she wanted to help others with the things she struggled with which is why she started her podcast about becoming a mother.Another big topic discussed is the relationship between spouses when raising children. The conversations that need to be had prior to committing to each other and what to discuss when deciding to have children.All this and more in today's episode.

For so many of us, we feel like our life's purpose is to make others happy. As we all know, this is an impossible task. Now, that isn't to say that spreading joy is a bad thing, but rather that eventually, you'll have to accept that it just isn't possible. It also shouldn't be at the expense of your own happiness. Often, the need to please other people stems directly from what you experienced growing up.  In today's episode, life coach, author, and podcast co-host, Sarah Evangeline shares her experience learning that spending all your time trying to make other people happy can lead you down a dangerous and slippery slope. Her insights stem from her own journey of never feeling like she was enough, really wanting to fit in, and searching for meaning in everything she did — something we can probably all identify with. Sarah believes that focusing all your energy on making others happy is unhealthy, self-destructive, behavior and can lead to all kinds of physical side-effects. The good news is that anyone can unlearn this, but the journey to get there is not the easiest. Sarah deals with working through your childhood trauma, asking—and owning—what you actually want in life and allowing yourself the freedom to really explore that. All while accepting that not everyone is going to like you, and that's completely okay! You can still be a good person by helping others, without putting your own happiness on the back burner. Tune in to learn how to start accepting that you don't have to make everyone happy. Topics discussed in this episode:Sarah's journey to authentic happinessOvercoming generational traumaThe power of discernment and reflection Redefining what love meansExploring what you want out of this lifeDitching the fear of rejectionDealing with the quarter life crisisLearning to love what you likeThe road to self-discovery is a long oneSarah's advice on opening up to happinessConnect with Sarah:InstagramTune in to Anchor to listen to Sarah's podcast, ‘The State of Potentiality Podcast', where, alongside co-host Rebecca Reimer, she explores what happens when we have to pivot due to drastic change. If you're looking to transform your life and get your mind, body and soul working as one, chat to Sarah about one of the various coaching packages she offers here. To learn more about character building qualities to become your true self, visit our website here!Head to Apple Podcasts to hear more episodes.Connect with Java:FacebookEmailInstagramLinkedInTwitter

Everybody is born to be a leader in their own right. It's not about what you do, but about who you are and it's a full-time job. It all comes down to how you show up in the world and if you get it right in one part of your life, that can have a directly positive (or negative) impact on other parts. For many, a truly authentic leader is someone who knows who they are, someone who can define themself, has a clear understanding of their identity in the world and knows what their values are. A leader should also never expect you to do something that they wouldn't do themselves. In today's episode, life coach and podcaster Taylor Sleaford shares his thoughts on all things leadership, from good examples to pitfalls, and what it means to be a great leader. Taylor believes that the building block for everything in life is being able to lead yourself and others, which is why you can't separate personal, business and relationship development. He deals with ideas like creating a consistent routine, how to inspire and empower others and how to hold oneself accountable. He also unpacks how to be more self-aware and the power of knowing not only your strengths, but also your weaknesses. Tune in to learn about how being true to yourself can make you a good leader, in all the different parts of your life. Topics discussed in this episode:Being authentically and unapologetically youHow physical development and nutrition can help your business succeedVivid, non-violent communication is the key to everything!Understand yourself, deeplyThe power of empathy, authority and relatability Taylor's practical tips on how to be a good leaderTaylor's journey into life coachingExamples of great leadershipPitfalls and strengths of great leadershipWhat it means to be a great leaderConnect with Taylor:InstagramFacebookTune in to Apple Podcasts to listen to Taylor's new podcast venture, Fully Human, where you can achieve your goals faster by being fully you. If you're looking for ways to optimize your life and have more freedom, apply for coaching with Taylor here!To learn more about character building qualities to become your true self, visit our website here!Head to Apple Podcasts to hear more episodes.Connect with Java:FacebookEmailInstagramLinkedInTwitter

Mental health is such an important aspect of our daily lives and can determine how we show up in the world and for ourselves. This topic is so important to us that we wanted to bring in a budding expert in the mental health field, Sarah Asif. Sarah is 22 years old and a former student of Java's who has accomplished so much in as little as four years. She holds a bachelors and masters degree and is working toward her doctorate with one goal in mind, and that is, to help prevent and aid in mental health for people all over the world. Her unique perspective of the disparity in mental health care across the globe and in communities in the US has pushed her to advocate for mental health in places where it hasn't been so readily available and has led her research to find ways to create opportunities for education for people in places where mental health is highly stigmatized. Sarah is brilliant and highly knowledgeable in her field that can be heard throughout the episode.Tune in to hear how you can receive mental health assistance, and how to take care of your mental health on a day to day basis by asking for support and taking a mental health day when needed.Topics discussed in this episode:Sarah's education and accomplishmentsWhat attracted Sarah to mental healthThe disparity in mental health careWhere does Sarah think we are at with mental health as a societyMental health stigma in older generationsCultural aspect of mental health stigmaTwo types of strategies to combat mental illness in communities all over the worldSarah's advice for those who are struggling with mental illness and are seeking helpWhat Sarah does to take care of her own mental healthThe importance of taking a mental health day What Sarah wishes to accomplish in 10 yearsHead to Apple Podcasts to listen to Maureen's podcast, ‘The Brain BS Podcast', to learn more on how you can learn how to live consciously!To learn more about character building qualities to become your true self, visit our website here!Head to Apple Podcasts to hear more episodes.Connect with Java:FacebookEmailInstagramLinkedInTwitter

“We have to accept reality, take responsibility for our emotions, and you will suffer way less when you stop blaming everybody else for everything, and you'll understand the power of your mind.” - Maureen KafkisWhat if we told you we have the solution to all your pain and suffering? Your first thought may be, there is no one solution to ALL suffering, or that this is impossible. However, the solution is quite simple, but without awareness, we create blind spots for ourselves, which is why we continue to suffer. The solution is, living consciously aware of your ego and how it manifests in your day to day life and your thoughts. The thoughts that infiltrate the mind, that have been placed there as a protection mechanism, are the cause of most human suffering. Most of the thoughts we think in a day have nothing to do with reality, but are just a perception created to protect our egos. So what happens when you can see your thought pattern as an outsider looking in, could you find how you have been filtering your reality in a way that has created suffering for you? This question requires a lot of contemplation, but what we can safely say is that it probably has. The ‘how' is up to you to find out. The ego gets a bad rep but it's not all bad, the difference is just our awareness of it. The ego helps us in many ways, but can cause great suffering if we choose to stay in the dark. What we want to help you uncover in today's episode is that the ego can be used as a tool to help evolve and propel yourself forward to become a better version of yourself. To help unpack the ego, we have invited Maureen Kafkis. Maureen is a life coach whose focus is to help others live consciously, and she joins us to discuss how our subconscious thought patterns manifest in our lives, where they come from, and how we can become aware of them to change our reality.Tune in to hear more about how you can change your thoughts and be on your way to harnessing your ego for your benefit!Topics discussed in this episode:Why Maureen picked ego as a topic for today's episodeA thought filter Maureen created for herself at a young ageHow Eckhart Tolle changed Maureen's lifeWhat triggered Maureen's sense of awarenessHow thought filters lead to egoHow the ego manifests in our livesWhy the ego has a bad repWhere the ego comes fromHow brain filters aren't so bad and cannot be avoidedWhat does it mean to live consciouslyHow to use the ego to improve ourselvesHead to Apple Podcasts to listen to Maureen's podcast, ‘The Brain BS Podcast', to learn more on how you can learn how to live consciously!To learn more about character building qualities to become your true self, visit our website here!Head to Apple Podcasts to hear more episodes.Connect with Java:FacebookEmailInstagramLinkedInTwitter

There are so many different ways to communicate. Speak, write, actions, body language, the list goes on. Then, how come we as humans haven't mastered this skill when literally every facet of our being is a type of communication? It could be because we may not understand when and how we are communicating. Like showing up to an interview dressed appropriately or being on time when meeting someone. When we change our perspective and understand when we are communicating, we can change the way we show up in the world and use it to our advantage. This is how we build our character. Learning about ourselves on a deeper level, such as how we communicate nonverbally, is a missing piece that we would like to uncover in this podcast.Joining us today is Patrick Harney, actor and podcast producer of the show “The Good Life”, and he is here to talk about all things communication. How we communicate, how much we communicate, and when to communicate. He goes over what it's like to communicate in a world where most of the workforce is now spread across countries, and when it's appropriate to communicate in our highly digitized world. Tune in for an insightful conversation about where we are as a society when it comes to communication and how we can become better communicators.Topics discussed in this episode:Why the topic of communication is so important to PatrickHow over communicating is better than under communicatingThe importance of communication in our globalized worldHow communication has changed due to our highly digitized livesHow your actions are a powerful form of communicationThe way we use technology determines if it is good or bad for usTeaching respect for technology to allow for proper useOpen communication in relationships and its benefitA lost form of writing that should returnInstant gratification in communicationHow asking hard questions makes your life easierTo learn more about character building qualities to become your true self, visit our website here!Head to Apple Podcasts to hear more episodes.Connect with Java:FacebookEmailInstagramLinkedInTwitter
