The future is something we all think about. As an Entrepreneur, our thoughts about the future usually go two ways: we either worry about it or dream about it. You’ve probably heard about the Law of Attraction and how you can manifest anything you want by envisioning the future and setting and intention. But does this really work? The answer lies in both science and spirituality. The universe is made of energy and we ourselves our energy beings. Whatever thoughts we put out in the world have an energetic frequency so whatever future we think about, it all affects the outcomes we see. So how can we tap into that energy and direct it to give us more of what we actually want? In today’s interview we talk about how the power of our thoughts can impact our results in life and business and share some easy techniques that you can use as part of your regular routine to start manifesting your dream life. Our guest for this episode is Lisa Kelly. She is a serial entrepreneur and has run several businesses including a children’s yoga and art centre, an online business management consultancy and now is a certified Infinite Possibilities trainer and mentor, offering transformative programs and coaching through her business Life Unlimited. Lisa shares practical tips on how to shift our mindsets and commit to become the best version of ourselves so we can achieve the future that we want. One of her favourite tools is the vision board. A fun and easy way for you to start visualizing your ideal life, set your intentions and generate positive thoughts around that vision. For more tips on how to manifest you dream future.

“He swings through the air with the greatest of ease the daring young man on the flying trapeze” goes the tune by George Leybourne, What does that have to do with managing your mindset and stress? Today Dr Kathy Gruver, Natural Health PHd, coach, hypnotherapist, massage therapist and psychology and human behavior expert,shares how her love of trapeze is a metaphor for life. With it’s risks, ups and downs but also that there is a safety net and people to help you. Whether it’s taking one small step forward or flying through the air….. the feeling of taking the leap and stepping out of your comfort zone can become addictive. As human’s we are faced with challenges every day from pandemics, lock-downs, civil unrest and human rights protests, running our lives, families, businesses to the simplest of issues like getting a flat tire, forgetting our pin number or deciding what to have for dinner. With so much going on around us it can be easy to slip into a mindset of scarcity, lack, fear, procrastination,confusion, paralysis or depression. Kathy shares “You can’t control what’s going on around you but you can control your reactions and responses in any situation.” even a small shift in focus can make a big difference in challenging times. As a registered hypnotherapist, Kathy shares some fun and practical mindset techniques that can help you shift your focus and inspire you to stop worrying about everything, find the positive and lessons to be learned in any situation and most of all to get out there and “Go for it” (and she debunks the myth that not all hypnosis will have you clucking like a chicken) "You don't have to make life changing or drastic changes" says Kathy. It can be as simple as trying a different restaurant, siting in a different booth, taking a different way to work. We’re creatures of habit and we get freaked out when things change. But if you are instigating that change, if you're making that shift happen, then it’s not going to as shocking when other stuff around you starts to change.

Would you meditate if it could increase your profit? The physical and mental benefits of meditation and mindfulness are well documented. It can help with everything from reducing stress and anxiety to increasing attention span and having better sleep. In the last 10 years it has gone from hippie to mainstream, but it is still mostly practiced at home or in a yoga studio setting. Progressive companies like Apple, Nike, HBO already include meditation in their employee wellness programs and you can too. Now more than ever employers are looking for more ways to reduce stress and support the mental and physical health of their employees as they transition back into the workplace. Meditation and Feng Shui expert Kristi Stangeland shares the science and benefits behind meditation and a simple 1 minute exercise you can use to start any meeting that will get your team relaxed and focussed, more creative and in the profit zone.

Imagine having a 3D chatbot as your new best friend. While it is still easy enough to tell the difference between a real person and a virtual entity, ai chatbot technology is becoming more sophisticated. People are now engaging at a deeper level and making more personalized connections with these virtual lifeforms. It could be likened to having a pet, but in this case it is with a digital or virtual life form. In this interview with AI and Strategic Marketing expert Dr Tania Peitzker we discuss what chatbots are and their uses. We explore their application as sales and marketing tools to create deeper and more personalized connections with customers and discuss the positive impacts they can have in society for example: providing information, support and connection to a wide range of under- served members of our population. In the midst of the corona-virus pandemic we are seeing more widespread benefits of chatbot technology. From using motion activated and touch free screens that can minimize the need for physical or person to person contact for information or retail transactions, to handling surges on our government agencies for things like pensions, emergency payments or even health-care processing. There are still many gaps when it comes to the rules and regulations around using this kind of technology and that's why discussions like this are so important. I encourage all small business owners to get informed and educated. When used the right way we can improve efficiency, deeper customer connection and bottom line results and also find wider benefits to society as a whole.

After working with women all over the Globe to discover what makes them tick and why one minute we can feel like a super-human and the next we want to hide in cave and put our heads under the covers, Carlie Maree noticed a pattern that has nothing to do with the Moon or menstrual cycles, and everything to do with what she calls our Soul Cycles.

The fashion industry is a major contributor to pollution and waste in our environment. Spurred on by changes in consumer consumption pattern to a less is more approach and our demand for more transparency around sustainable production processes, the fashion industry is looking to technology to help them solve real world problems of today and the future. In this episode I speak with Nina Nikolic of TAAS Inc. She shares how she is using 3D technology in her business of digital pattern making and virtual fit sampling processes. New technology is helping brands to significantly speed up the clothing development cycle and reduce waste by creating accurate prototypes in a virtual setting with no need for physical samples. Change can be slow in a traditional industry where touching, seeing and feeling the product has been at the heart of the garment development process since its inception. Nina is leading the way to educate brands on the broader issues driving the need for change and helping experts and artisans to utilize their skills and knowledge as a complement to technology leading to more efficient, cost effective, sustainable and even more innovative fashion solutions.

When was the last time you were hugged? This week’s guest Kathryn Ver Brugge is a Cuddle Professional based in Hawaii. Hear how Kathryn followed her intuition and overcame the judgement, negativity and the expectations of others to create a business she is passionate about using her skills and knowledge to help people have a more human experience. Her cuddle work (completely platonic) is helping people set their boundaries, explore and clearly communicate their needs, and open themselves up to the people and opportunities that are aligned to that. With the advent of more technology, we are experiencing even less physical contact than ever before and that will become an even bigger issue for future generations. Kathryn shares how learning how to better express our emotions can lead to a simpler and more efficient life because being a clear communicator allows you to cut through unnecessary time and energy spent on what could otherwise be a quick and straightforward interaction. She ultimately wants to teach people how to be “nice humans” As business owners, leaders, employees, human beings we could all do with a little more simplicity and alot more cuddles!
