Feeling stuck? You're not alone. Beth shares how a simple meditation practice helped her shift from a cycle of scarcity to a mindset of abundance. After starting the year strong, she found herself in an emotional lull, something many of us can relate to. But instead of staying stuck, she leaned into a morning meditation that uses bilateral beats to promote clarity, focus, and prosperity. Beth candidly walks us through how this daily ritual became a turning point, opening unexpected doors in both her personal and professional life. She reflects on the sneaky ways scarcity mentality can creep in, even after success, and how she's learning to celebrate wins without guilt. This episode isn't as much about meditation, as it's about reclaiming your mindset, and making space for the abundance waiting to find you. With vulnerability, honesty, and a bit of disbelief at how quickly things shifted, Beth invites you to explore your own journey toward a more abundant life. Let's dive in!
What if the health of your brain determined the health of every other part of your life – your body, your relationships, even your sense of purpose? Today's guest firmly believes that it does. Dr Daniel Amen is a child and adult psychiatrist, who is on a mission to end mental illness by creating a revolution in brain health. He is also the founder of Amen Clinics, home to the world's largest database of brain scans for psychiatry and the author of multiple best-selling books including his very latest, Change Your Brain Every Day: Simple Daily Practices to Strengthen Your Mind, Memory, Mood, Focus, Energy, Habits, and Relationships. In this conversation, Daniel shares insights from over 250,000 brain scans and decades of clinical practice and we talk about: Why mental health is really brain health – and why stigma and shame often stand in the way of proper care The surprising link between brain function and behaviour – from impulsivity and focus to joy and connection How brain imaging is transforming psychiatry – and why Daniel believes we should “image, not guess” when treating emotional or cognitive issues The “BRIGHT MINDS” framework – that covers the key risk factors you can address to protect your brain immediately The simple daily habits that can literally shape the structure and function of your brain Daniel's approach is both science-backed and deeply compassionate. He reminds us that we are not stuck with the brain we have – we can make it better, at any age, through lifestyle, mindset and targeted care. Whether you're struggling with your mood, memory, focus or simply want to feel sharper and more vibrant, this conversation will leave you feeling hopeful and empowered to take control of your brain - and your life.

Send us a textBurnout doesn't discriminate—it affects everyone from CEOs to stay-at-home parents. When juggling family commitments, career demands, social connections, and personal aspirations becomes overwhelming, our bodies and minds send clear distress signals. Recognizing these warning signs—persistent fatigue, increasing irritability, motivation loss, and disconnection—is your first defense against spiraling deeper into burnout.This focused guide delivers exactly what busy, overwhelmed people need: simple, actionable strategies that take minimal time but yield maximum relief. The 4-4-4 breathing technique offers an immediate reset for your overwhelmed nervous system, lowering your heart rate and activating your body's natural relaxation response in just 12 seconds. Establishing clear boundaries—like our household's "no screens after 9:30 pm" rule—creates protected space for recovery and rejuvenation. The daily gratitude practice we've implemented at breakfast has transformed our mental focus from what's depleting to what's nourishing.Movement breaks throughout your day, quality sleep practices, strategic delegation, and periodic digital detoxes all contribute to a more sustainable daily rhythm. But perhaps the most powerful tool in your anti-burnout arsenal is reclaiming your right to say "no." Each decline to what doesn't serve your wellbeing becomes an affirmative choice toward what truly matters. These aren't complex life overhauls—they're small, consistent choices that gradually transform exhaustion into energy and overwhelm into optimism. Ready to make these shifts in your own life?

The Daily Practice is a set of two techniques -- a specific form of writing, followed by a simple meditation, that I was shown 31 years ago when I was in extreme distress after a series of traumas, and was barely able to function. I teach the techniques in a free online course (you can register for it and learn it in less than an hour -- the link is below), and I lead regular free Zoom calls for people who have learned the techniques to try them with me and others, and then I take questions. This video is a recorded call so you can see what it's like. If you'd like to try, it take the free course so you know the techniques (there's a PDF in the course that summarizes it and you can use this to follow along during the call. Once you've registered, we'll e-mail you a schedule and an invitation (also published on my website under the Events tab) to join the calls. It's a lovely community and we hope you'll give it a try.

Dave takes a critical look at modern Zen's emphasis on daily zazen, going deep on what “practice” means and what's it really for. Is skipping zazen self-care or self-delusion? If we're really meditating all the time, do we still need to sit down and meditate? Do the sun, moon, and stars really depend on our zazen to shine?? Find out here!

Neil shares insights from his 26 years of experience in the tutoring, teaching, and coaching business. He emphasises the power of lists as essential tools for organisation and clarity, introducing his unique "what works" list, which helps him evaluate his life and business periodically. By categorising what works and what doesn't, Neil encourages listeners to confront uncomfortable truths and make necessary changes to enhance their productivity and well-being. With practical examples and a no-nonsense approach, this episode aims to inspire tutors, teachers, and coaches to streamline their processes and ultimately love their businesses even more. KEY TAKEAWAYS The Power of Lists: Creating various lists, such as to-do lists, shopping lists, and a "don't do" list, can help streamline tasks, reduce indecision, and enhance productivity in both personal and business contexts. What Works vs. What Doesn't: Maintaining a "what works" list can clarify effective behaviours and strategies, while a "what doesn't work" list helps identify and eliminate negative influences and habits that hinder progress. Self-Review Process: Conducting periodic self-reviews, ideally quarterly, allows for reflection on personal and business growth, helping to assess whether goals are being met and areas for improvement are identified. Honesty in Reflection: When creating lists, it's important to be brutally honest about what works and what doesn't, as this honesty can lead to valuable insights and necessary changes in behaviour or environment. Daily Practices for Well-Being: Incorporating daily gratitude and reflection practices can significantly enhance mood and sense of purpose, while neglecting these practices can lead to negative feelings and decreased motivation. BEST MOMENTS "A to-do list is, for me, a parking space for everything that needs to be done. It's also where I outsource my worrying to." "Don't overthink it, just whazz down the list, go from your guts, don't censor yourself, you're looking to gain clarity and insight." "This can be uncomfortable. And that's the very reason I think you should do it. Because you may confront uncomfortable truths about yourself." "The left column is what works for me. The right column is what doesn't work for me." "Grab yourself a pen and paper. Make yourself a nice cup of tea. And get scribbling."

You hold the door open. You say yes when you mean no. You put others first—always. It feels like the right thing to do… but is it costing you more than you realize? In this episode, Scott Barry Kaufman, Ph.D.—Columbia professor, psychologist, and author of Rise Above—joins Dave Asprey to expose the psychology of victim vs. empowerment mindsets. He reveals how toxic altruism, external validation, and emotional fragility keep people stuck—and how you can reclaim your confidence, set boundaries, and create a life of true growth. Dr. Kaufman, one of the world's most cited scientists, shares cutting-edge research on self-actualization, resilience, and the hidden mental loops that shape your success. If you've ever felt stuck in self-doubt, drained from over-giving, or afraid to take up space, this conversation will help you break free. What You'll Discover in This Episode: • Victim vs. empowerment mindset—the key shift that changes everything • The psychological traps of toxic altruism—and why over-giving holds you back • How people-pleasing rewires your brain—and how to break the cycle • The science of self-actualization—how to unlock your full potential without guilt • Why modern culture and social media reward emotional fragility—and how to rise above it • The neuroscience behind confidence, resilience, and making better choices for YOUR growth If you've ever felt stuck, undervalued, or drained from always being “nice”, this episode will show you how to step into your power, rewrite your mental programming, and take control of your future.
