This episode is a rebroadcast. Dusty has handpicked episodes from the archive to air while she and Ash are on their annual summer break. New episodes resume in September! This week Cam and Shelly pivot from the recent focus on negative emotions to positive emotions. Emotions are the on-off switch for action. Understanding how emotions come into play is key to motivation and taking action. Those of us with ADHD tend to over-utilize our fear neural networks or negative emotions to get things done. How often do you hear yourself prioritizing or taking action through urgency or on the greatest consequence? How often does worry, fear or anxiety inform what you are trying to do? Accessing this negative neural network too much leads to stress and health issues. Starting to access the positive neural network can help to reverse this process. Cam and Shelly start by introducing the ‘gateway' emotions of hope and curiosity. These are the emotions that can lead to other positive emotions like trust, gratitude and love. Cam reads a letter from an appreciative listener and discusses how developing community and understanding of the dilemma can instill a sense of hope and possibility. Shelly discusses how the skill of normalizing can make someone start to understand their ADHD experience and why in coaching it is important to articulate a picture of positive success.

In this Soul Elevation livestream, I'm diving into how real solutions often come from beyond the mind. I share a story from over 25 years ago—before I had a meditation practice—where the answer to a coding problem came not from thinking harder, but from something much higher.

Time is your most precious resource, but how you use it is up to you. The shift from earning to retirement can be quite challenging, as you have to thread the needle between income, growth, and time. In this new episode of the Common Sense Financial Podcast, host Brian Skrobonja goes over the most important mindset shift people need to make in order for their retirement plan to succeed. It is possible to retire without growth, but it's impossible to succeed without income. But many people have trouble shifting their mindset from focusing on long-term growth into a consistent and reliable income. When you invest long-term, that means not having to withdraw money from your assets for a long time. But once you enter retirement, your timeline moves from the future to the present. This transition requires a mindset shift to be made before significant progress can be made. Retirement planning is a discovery process that boils down to learning whether or not you have an income gap in retirement and, once that's discovered, the whole plan is built around replacing that income. Without that number, everything else is a guessing game. If you shortcut this step with estimates, you will only compound the issue downstream. Retirement seems like a simple concept, but it's surprisingly complex and solving the issue with old ways of thinking will lead you astray. Future performance of investments can't be determined by looking at the past. An investment doesn't address the risks you face in retirement. The sooner you figure out that investing is a spoke in a very large wheel, the sooner you can begin to formulate a true retirement roadmap. There are common components for retirement scenarios, like the income gap. There are also common risks that all retirement plans need to account for: sequence of return risk, market risk, interest rate risk, mortality risk, legislative risk, longevity risk, and health risk. All retirement plans should be built around the idea of protecting yourself and mitigating as much risk as you possibly can. Most people's largest asset is their income, but it's often not considered for insurance. Confirmation bias can hinder our ability to consider alternative perspectives and make the mindset shifts we need to make in retirement. People can find themselves endlessly searching for experts to tell them that they don't need to change their strategy in retirement because of our natural need to confirm our beliefs. The more successful a person becomes, the more valuable their time becomes. To preserve those valuable hours, it becomes increasingly more important to surround yourself with professionals to whom you can delegate responsibilities to free up time. Insurance is just a form of delegation. You delegate your risk to the insurance company, which mitigates the risk and increases the quality of your time. Delegating the research and leveraging the experience of a professional in retirement planning can help you leverage your time with confidence.

Hello! This is Episode 364, and in it, HOME Method member, Shauna, is back with Part 2 of our conversation about building her new family home. In this episode, we dive deeper into the long-term view Shauna took with this home, and how that shaped her decisions around budget, investment, and design. And you’ll hear how she tested her thinking along the way, continually asking herself if her choices were still delivering a better result than the alternatives. [For all resources mentioned in this podcast and a free, downloadable PDF transcript, head to www.undercoverarchitect.com/364] If you haven’t listened to Part 1 of my conversation, be sure to head ot Episode 363, where you’ll hear Shauna introduce her project, and discuss how she embarked on her design process balancing sustainability goals, her budget and a complex site. You can find it at www.undercoverarchitect.com/363 In this episode, we explore how Shauna navigated her decision to go with a Design-Build builder, and how she set herself up for success in that relationship. She followed my guidance on risk awareness, and you’ll hear the smart ways she ensured clear communication, transparency, and alignment right from the start. Shauna shares how she handled the contract and construction process, and the tools and mindset that helped her manage changes, call out errors, and advocate for what she needed, without fear of how she’d be seen or friction in her communication. And we also talk about how she decided where to invest her time and energy, and the thoughtful, strategic trade-offs she made to suit her lifestyle, family needs, and values, while still achieving a high-performing and deeply satisfying home. As someone who has the benefit of living now in her finished home and being aware of what she’s achieved, as well as her key learnings along the way, I know Shauna has a wealth of knowledge and information to share with you that will be hugely beneficial for your project - whether you’re building new or renovating.

As a holistic practitioner, I recognize that health isdynamic and unique to each person. It also is influenced by many factors – our relationships, our physical environments, our genetics, our schools and jobs, our unique design and purpose, and our day-to-day choices.

Hello! This is Episode 363, and in it, I’m chatting with HOME Method member, Shauna, who has recently completed her new family home. Shauna is a sustainability practitioner by profession. So, what does someone who works in sustainability do when creating their long-term family home? Well, you’ll hear how she approached her new build with intention, clear objectives, and a pragmatic approach that balanced the realities of her budget and site with her overall goals and wishlist in her newly built home. [For all resources mentioned in this podcast and a free, downloadable PDF transcript, head to www.undercoverarchitect.com/363] In this episode, I talk with Shauna about how she identified her objectives, and worked to create an incredibly comprehensive Design Brief, using the HOME Method Brief Builder Template and Room Notes as her guide and template. You’ll hear how she very quickly realised that this wasn’t about striving for perfection - which in fact can be paralysing for many in their projects, and a slippery slope in all the competing demands of a renovation or new build project journey. Instead, Shauna focused on what mattered most - identifying her key objectives, understanding her constraints, and making deliberate, well-informed choices to do the best she could within them. We talk about how she navigated some serious challenges: purchasing a derelict home in a brilliant location, tackling a steep and complex site, managing the project as a single parent, and balancing her values with a realistic budget. Along the way she made trade-offs whilst provisioning for future upgrades and created a home that supports the sensory needs of her family. You’ll hear us discuss how she used a Design-Build builder who handled the design inhouse and how she was actively involved throughout, ensuring she could get access to site and review works as they progressed. Throughout the project, Shauna stayed clear on her values, true to what she was seeking to achieve, and used her Design Brief and well-researched preparation to guide her, backing herself to make the best decisions along the way. What I love most is how this project has ended with Shauna feeling proud, confident, and content, not only because she’s created a comfortable and functional home, but also now lives in an authentic expression of her priorities and purpose. This is such a fantastic conversation, especially for those who worry that they can’t do “everything perfectly.” Shauna’s story shows what’s possible when you stay connected to what matters and give yourself permission to build the best you can, with what you have, right now, ensuring you’re prepared and well-researched to realise the full potential of your budget, site and life. I hope you find this conversation super helpful as you get ready for your project.

Professor Mary Wingfield, Founder and former Clinical Director in the Merrion Fertility Clinic in Dublin, reacts to free fertility treatment being made available to couples experiencing secondary infertility.
Once we expand to other star systems, we may begin a self-propagating expansion of human civilisation throughout the galaxy. However, there are existential risks potentially capable of destroying a galactic civilisation, like self-replicating machines, strange matter, and vacuum decay. Without an extremely widespread and effective governance system, the eventual creation of a galaxy-ending x-risk seems almost inevitable due to cumulative chances of initiation over time and across multiple independent actors. So galactic x-risks may severely limit the total potential value that human civilisation can attain in the long-term future. The requirements for a governance system to prevent galactic x-risks are outlined, and updates for space governance and big picture cause prioritisation are discussed.

It is a hidden secret that one way to manifest your wishes is to access unseen support. This includes guides, higher denisty beings, angels, ancestors and so much more. Your guides have been waiting for this moment when you would finally understand how to work with them consciously. They've been sending you signs and guidance your entire life, but now you have the awareness and tools to receive their support at a completely new level. This activation has opened a doorway that remains permanently available to you. If consciousness exists beyond the brain, then other forms of consciousness, more advanced forms, can exist in dimensions we're only beginning to understand. The HeartMath Institute has proven that your heart generates an electromagnetic field 60 times greater in amplitude than your brain. This field extends several feet beyond your body, and it's constantly interacting with other electromagnetic fields around you. As you understand this more deeply, you begin to realize that you're not separate from anything - you're part of an interconnected web of energy and consciousness. The signs that your guides and higher beings are actively working with you appear in the physical world in fascinating ways. Synchronicities begin multiplying - you think of someone and they call, you need specific information and it appears in unexpected places, numbers start repeating in meaningful patterns. Animals often become messengers, acting unusually friendly or appearing at significant moments. Birds might follow you, butterflies could appear out of season, or you might notice the same type of animal showing up repeatedly. Your guides also communicate through your physical senses. You might catch the scent of flowers when none are present, or smell your grandmother's perfume when thinking about a decision she would have guided you through. Some people hear their name called softly when no one is around, or notice background music seems to carry messages in the lyrics. Others experience sudden knowing - information that downloads into your consciousness complete and fully formed, like remembering something you never learned but somehow always knew. Through this activation you will learn how to access this unseen support and manifest your dreams in ways that you once thought were impossible.
“The more money you have, the bigger the mistakes,” someone once told Brian… How does that translate into retirement planning? And how can you help ensure you approach your financial planning for your “golden years” in the best possible way? In this new episode of the Common Sense Financial Podcast, host Brian Skrobonja goes over five retirement mistakes that you should stay away from at all costs, as well as what retirement is actually about. Brian touches upon something that a very successful person told him when he was getting started with his business back in 1993: ‘The more money you have, the bigger the mistakes.' With his desire to work hard and strong work ethic, Brian quickly became successful. But there was a problem with his approach – Brian opens up about that. Brian shares some of the retirement mistakes he has seen people make in his 30-year career. Having a distorted view of what wealth really is and having what Brian calls “vertical diversification” are two common mistakes Brian has seen over and over again in his career. There are many factors to consider when attempting to diversify. You shouldn't believe that a bank account and a portfolio of public investments are all that's available to you as you move your diversification horizontally. Brian points out a common practice to avoid: making an investment decision based on the tax deduction alone. When making decisions regarding how you save money, Brian suggests considering how you'll ultimately use the money. Brian discusses why you shouldn't have too much dependency on markets nor having complacency. Brian sees retirement as a balancing act between growing money for the future while drawing income for your retirement needs.

Hello! This is Episode 362, and in it, I’m sharing what to do if you’re not using the PAC Process - or Paid As Consultant Process - but still want to ensure you don’t get massively disappointed when your project gets priced before you start construction. Perhaps you still want to competitively tender your project? Or you’ve found out about the PAC Process too far into your project? Or your architect or designer isn’t interested in doing it at all, or has another method they’re suggesting to you? This is something I get asked about a lot. So, in this episode, I want to give you clear guidance on what you can do instead. [For all resources mentioned in this podcast and a free, downloadable PDF transcript, head to www.undercoverarchitect.com/362.] Because if you can’t, or don’t want to, use the PAC Process, there are still really practical ways to reduce your risk, get accurate cost feedback, and avoid the heartbreak of working for months, and spending a lot of money, on designing a home you ultimately can’t afford to build. We’ll talk about using Quantity Surveyors and Building Estimators, what to look for in a designer or architect’s process, how to get more meaningful builder input even without a formal collaboration, and what to understand about ECI (or Early Contractor Involvement) and Negotiated Tender if they’re options you’re considering. More importantly, I’ll address some of the common fears around this, such as whether early builder involvement locks you in, or removes your ability to compare prices. So whether you’re at the start of your project, midway through your design, or about to go to tender, my goal is to help you feel more informed and empowered to navigate this next stage with clarity. As always, if you’d like to access a full transcript of this episode and links to the resources I mention, head to www.undercoverarchitect.com/362. Now, let’s dive in! SHOW NOTES: If you’re struggling with understanding the overall steps for your project, what you should be focussing on and when, or how to best invest your efforts, energy and money to get a great outcome in your future home, I’ve created something super helpful for you.

In this raw and hope-filled episode, Ginny sits down with Lindsey Prell, a working mom who was quietly unraveling under the weight of modern motherhood—until everything changed. Lindsey opens up about her darkest season, when she and her husband were one casual conversation away from divorce. Through a surprising series of events—including a life-giving women's group, an unexpected job loss, and discovering the 1000 Hours Outside movement—Lindsey began a journey of healing, presence, and unexpected joy. What she found wasn't a perfect life—but a full one. Together, Ginny and Lindsey explore the ways outdoor time can anchor us in reality, help us sift through the noise of comparison, and remind us what matters most. This is a deeply honest conversation about mindset, marriage, working motherhood, homeschooling with help, and learning to appreciate the life you've been given. If you've been chasing someone else's dream—or just wondering how to reclaim delight in your day—this conversation will feel like an exhale. **

Hello! This is Episode 361, and in it, I’m answering the questions I didn’t get to during our recent live webinars. I hope these answers are interesting to hear, and perhaps help you feel more equipped and confident in navigating your own project. [For all resources mentioned in this podcast and a free, downloadable PDF transcript, head to www.undercoverarchitect.com/361.] Whenever I host a live session, I’m always blown away by the type and curiosity of the questions that come through. They show me just how thoughtful, considered, and committed you are when it comes to getting your home right - and how much you’re navigating behind the scenes as you do it. Sometimes, though, we run out of time before I can respond to everything. So in this episode, I’m circling back to answer the questions I didn’t get to live, but that I know many of you are wondering about too. We’re covering a whole range of topics: from how to know if you’re adding value to your property, to managing issues with tradies, planning your kitchen design, dealing with appliances purchased too early, and getting your builder on board during pre-construction. So whether you’re choosing materials, talking to trades, or just starting to explore what your project could look like, I know there’ll be something here that helps you feel more informed and in control.
