When it comes to property investing, the noise from the financial media can be deafening. But how much of what they say is really worth your attention? There are many commonly held beliefs about property investing that aren't only questionable but are also utterly false. Sadly, some investors go through their entire property journey believing them. And that's a shame. They waste precious time buying the wrong property or using faulty strategies because they listened to bad advice. So in today's show Brett Warren and I discuss the myths perpetuated by financial media, and the role of property investors in the Australian economy.     Takeaways  The financial media often misrepresents property investment. Investors are typically everyday people, not greedy. Property investment requires a long-term perspective. Cash flow is important, but capital growth is essential. A strategic plan is crucial for successful investing. Fear-based media can hinder investment decisions. Independent advice is valuable and often necessary. Understanding market cycles is vital for investors. Experience in property investment is irreplaceable.   Chapters  00:00 The Role of Property Investors in Australia 07:31 Understanding Property Cycles and Long-Term Investing 14:06 The Importance of a Strategic Plan 19:43 Navigating the Media Landscape 25:17 The Value of Experience and Mentorship 29:11 The Importance of Preparedness 31:49 Embracing Uncertainty and Opportunity   Links and Resources: Michael Yardney   Get the team at Metropole to help build your personal Strategic Property Plan Click here and have a chat with us   Brett Warren - National Director of Property at Metropole   Get a bundle of eBooks and Reports at www.PodcastBonus.com.au    Also, please subscribe to my other podcast Demographics Decoded with Simon Kuestenmacher – just look for  Demographics Decoded wherever you are listening to this podcast and subscribe so each week we can unveil the trends shaping your future.

Sue Stockdale speaks to adventurer, author, and deep thinker Ed Ley-Wilson. Ed shares insights from his life exploring both the outdoors and the mind. From kayaking the rugged west coast of Scotland to reflecting on resilience, solitude, and the power of slowing down, Ed reveals how adventure - whether on land, sea, or within ourselves shapes our engagement with the world. About Ed Ley-WilsonEd has over thirty years of working and engaging with business, community, educational, social and environmental issues throughout the Highlands of Scotland. He has undertaken long self-supported kayaking journeys in Norway and Patagonia and has run 1200 miles of the Great Wall of China (1988) and the 2000 mile length of the Himalayas (1990). Ed is no stranger to hardship and during his 2022 kayaking journey up the west coast of Scotland he faced some of the worst weather in that region for years. He also has two books to his name, ‘The Himalayan Shuffle' and ‘Kayaking the Sea Roads.Key Quotes"Adventure isn't just about the physical challenge; it's about how we engage with the world around us and what we learn from it.""Solitude teaches you resilience in a way nothing else can - you have to sit with your thoughts and find your own way through them.""Whether on the sea or in life, you can't always control what happens, but you can control how you respond to it.""The lessons I learned from John Ridgway weren't just about survival; they were about self-reliance, discipline, and understanding your own limits.""Slowing down and disconnecting from the noise of the modern world is one of the greatest gifts adventure can offer.""It's not a weakness to not know stuff. It's a strength actually".Chapters01:57 Early Adventures and Influences03:33 Lessons from the Wild04:31 The Philosophy of Adventure05:42 Kayaking the Sea Roads10:07 Reflections on Highland Communities16:27 The Importance of Time and Space21:30 Embracing Uncertainty and Curiosity23:06 The Role of Yoga in Kayaking25:54 The Journey of Self-Discovery35:39 Balancing Life and Future PlansConnect with Access to Inspiration: Twitter | Facebook | Instagram | LinkedIn | Read our Impact Report and if you would like to support us then Buy Me A CoffeeProducer: Sue Stockdale   Sound Editor: Matias De Ezcurra Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/access-to-inspiration--4156820/support.

In this episode, Brian Klaas explains the concept of whether things are a fluke or fate, and explores how embracing uncertainty can lead to a living a fuller life. Brian makes the case that randomness and chaos might be exactly what makes our lives matter so much, and how we tend to worship at the “Altar of Progress in the Church of Control.” We make plans, set goals, and these are good things, but we only have so much control. And Brian teaches that accepting this can be a relief, because the point isn’t to control everything, but to influence what we can. Key Takeaways: The concept of happiness derived from intrinsic values rather than material possessions and social status. The importance of thoughts and actions in shaping our lives and experiences. Exploration of chaos theory and the unpredictability of life. The idea that we control nothing but influence everything, emphasizing the ripple effects of our actions. Personal stories illustrating how random events can profoundly impact lives. The empowering nature of recognizing the influence of our choices. The tension between control and acceptance of life’s randomness. The critique of societal values that prioritize material success over personal fulfillment and relationships. Encouragement to embrace individual uniqueness and create for personal expression rather than external validation.

In this week's episode of The Life of a Bon Vivant, Beeta dives into the messy, often uncomfortable space of uncertainty, where the future feels foggy, plans feel wobbly, and nothing seems set in stone. Speaking from her own experience of living abroad, running a business, and navigating life off the traditional timeline, she shares how uncertainty shows up in unexpected ways and how we're often taught to fear it. But instead of resisting it, Beeta explores how we might start embracing it with more curiosity and trust. Inspired by the French way of savouring everyday life and slowing down, she invites us to rethink our relationship with the unknown—not as something to solve or control, but as a doorway to deeper presence and self-trust.Get notified about the latest episode and more: https://monpetitfour.com/sign-upFollow along on Instagram: https://Instagram.com/MonPetitFour

Episode #113 - In this episode of the Awakened Heart Podcast, I sit down with Monica Mangelson, a life-purpose coach, digital nomad, and adventure seeker who turned societal expectations on their head to create a life of freedom and fulfillment. Raised in an orthodox home where marriage and motherhood were the expected path, Monica knew deep down there had to be more. After a canceled Peace Corps opportunity left her feeling stuck, she and her husband took control of their destiny—building an online business that allows them to travel the world. Now, as a certified life-purpose coach with a deep understanding of neuroscience, Monica helps others step into their power and design lives they truly love. Join us as we explore the neuroscience behind personal transformation, overcoming fear, and breaking free from limiting beliefs.TakeawaysThings always work out the way they're supposed to.We can live and work anywhere.I felt a lot of pressure from that side.Everything that I've been through was for this moment.I would have probably been in corporate America today.We have to just be so radically honest with each other.You didn't start this so you can work 24 seven.Our brains are wired for efficiency.A lot of people are afraid of making success.You can design your life.Sound Bites"We can live and work anywhere.""Our brains are wired for efficiency.""You can design your life."Chapters00:00 Introduction and Background Mishap02:39 The Journey to Becoming Digital Nomads05:43 Breaking Free from Traditional Expectations08:22 The Impact of the Pandemic on Their Plans11:10 Finding New Paths and Opportunities14:06 Building a Business as a Couple16:53 Mindset Shifts and Lifestyle Changes19:38 Neuroscience of Change and Overcoming Blocks28:29 Fear of Success: The Hidden Barrier30:44 The Transformative Power of Belief34:11 Redefining Freedom and Life Purpose36:24 Creating a Freedom-Based Lifestyle42:08 Unexpected Lessons from Travel45:55 Embracing Uncertainty and Future PossibilitiesConnect with Monica:WebsitePodcastFacebookFacebook GroupLet's Connect!WebsiteInstagram FacebookYoutubeRumble⁠Tik Tok⁠digital nomad, neuroscience, life coaching, personal growth, mindset, freedom lifestyle, couple goals, entrepreneurship, overcoming fear, community support

In this episode of the Creative Genius podcast, I interview Rebe Huntman about her debut memoir, "My Mother in Havana, a memoir of magic and miracle." Rebe shares her personal story of losing her mother at a young age and the subsequent decades of feeling disconnected from her memory. Driven by a deep longing and intuition, Rebe embarked on a 30-day DIY pilgrimage to Cuba to seek a different perspective on grief and connection. The conversation delves into how Rebe's background as a Latin dancer led her to discover the spiritual roots of Cuban dances and the traditions of honoring the deceased.  Rebe recounts her experiences immersing herself in rituals dedicated to the goddess Oshun, visiting the sanctuary of Cuba's patron saint, and meeting with a spiritist who she hoped would connect her with her mother.Rebe and I discuss the importance of intuition and following one's unique path, even when it doesn't seem logical. We also explore the disconnect in Western culture from ancestral connections, magic, and meaningful rituals, contrasting it with the Cuban traditions of keeping the dead close.The conversation touches on the challenges of staying creative and connected to one's inner voice in the face of overwhelming global issues and personal fears. Rebe shares her belief in creativity as a portal and emphasizes the importance of honouring inner longings and choosing to champion humanity. She also shares her personal rituals for grounding and connecting with her intuition and ancestors, offering practical advice for listeners seeking to do the same. Ultimately, Rebe's story is a powerful reminder of the resilience of the human spirit, the wisdom of intuition, and the potential for magic and miracle in our lives, even in the darkest of times.  

We're often bombarded with messages equating success with rapid achievement and instant gratification. Today we are diving into "slow hope," a sustainable form of hope that doesn't rush outcomes but allows time for healing and growth. Unlike traditional hope tied to quick results, slow hope builds resilience over time. Many feel hopeless amid life's challenges or cling desperately to change. Slow hope shifts this perspective by embracing patience and gradual progress. It encourages us not only to focus on end goals but also appreciate the journey itself. Slow hope isn't about instant fixes; it's about steady optimism through small steps toward big goals without burnout or frustration from unmet expectations. Embracing slow hope transforms how we handle uncertainty—building inner strength against setbacks—and fosters long-term personal growth free from constant stressors demanding quick solutions at every turn in our fast-paced world today! Let's break it down… Key Points: Understanding Slow Hope Unlike traditional hope that is tied to specific outcomes or quick resolutions—a mindset that can lead to burnout when things don't go as planned—slow hope is about fostering resilience through patience and trust in life's process. It encourages individuals not just to focus on immediate results but also on gradual progress over time. The Problem with Rapid Progress Our society's obsession with speed can create unrealistic expectations leading many people into cycles of stress or feeling inadequate when they don't achieve their goals quickly enough. By embracing slow hope instead: You release yourself from unnecessary pressures. You open up space for genuine healing. You cultivate an enduring sense of optimism even amidst uncertainty. The Concept of Hope Common perceptions of hope in moments of uncertainty Distinction between traditional hope and slow hope The introduction of 'slow hope'—a sustainable form of optimism Understanding Slow Hope Definition and characteristics of slow hope How slow hope differs from traditional hope Importance and benefits of slow hope in personal growth The Role of Slow Hope in Modern Life Challenges in modern life related to instant gratification and quick fixes The pressure of achieving rapid outcomes How slow hope provides a counterbalance to the fast-paced lifestyle Cultivating Slow Hope Step-by-step guide on how to develop a mindset of slow hope Techniques such as self-reflection, patience cultivation, and mindful progression Importance of breaking down big goals into smaller, manageable steps Embracing Uncertainty and Building Resilience Learning to embrace life's uncertainties through slow hope Building resilience by accepting life's ups and downs How a long-term perspective fosters growth and patience Changing Your Mindset with Slow Hope Shifting focus from immediate outcomes to the process of growth The impact of slow hope on reducing anxiety and stress Enhancing self-esteem and cultivating gratitude for small wins To practice slow hope: 1. Acknowledge where you are. 2. Release pressure for immediate results. 3. Break large goals into manageable steps. 4. Cultivate patience through reflection. 5. Celebrate small wins along the way. This approach reduces anxiety by focusing less on perfectionism or rapid achievements while fostering gratitude for everyday victories. The Power of Patience and Gratitude The crucial role of patience in slow hope Celebrating small victories and maintaining motivation over time Transforming daily life through the practice of gratitude The Quiet Strength of Slow Hope The quiet, persistent nature of slow hope as a force for change Understanding transformation as a journey, not a race Encouragement to embrace slow hope for personal empowerment Conclusion: By incorporating these strategies into everyday life practices consistently overtime will inevitably result increased levels satisfaction derived purely living authentically aligned values held dear personally speaking too importantly so much else besides merely achieving tangible milestones alone… Have you checked out the GYLTG Empowerment Hub on Apple?

This week's guest has spent over 50 years conducting ground-breaking research showing that your thoughts have a profound impact on your body. Dr Ellen J. Langer is Professor of Psychology at Harvard University, and widely known as the 'mother of mindfulness'. She is the recipient of three Distinguished Scientists awards and the author of twelve books, including her very latest, The Mindful Body: Thinking Our Way to Chronic Health. In our conversation, we discuss how our mindsets directly affect our physical health, why much of what we attribute to ageing may actually be a consequence of our beliefs and the real meaning of mindfulness. We also explore whether as a society, we need to rethink the concept of work-life balance, with Ellen suggesting that we should instead focus on "work-life integration," where we find interest and joy in whatever we're doing. She also shares a powerful technique that has helped many patients with long term conditions like MS, Parkinson's and chronic pain and she outlines a refreshing approach to decision making: instead of trying to make the "right" decision, we should choose and then "make the decision right". This is a powerful conversation that reminds all of us that we have a lot more control over our wellbeing than we might initially think. Ellen is a wonderful human, full of knowledge, expertise and passion - and the ideas she shares have the power to transform your health, longevity and happiness.   Support the podcast and enjoy Ad-Free episodes.

In this episode, we welcome Maggie Jackson, whose latest book, Uncertain, has become essential reading for navigating today's complex world. Known for her groundbreaking work on attention and distraction, Maggie now turns her focus to uncertainty—not as a problem to be solved, but as a skill to be cultivated. Note: Uncertain won an Artificiality Book Award in 2024—check out our review here: https://www.artificiality.world/artificiality-book-awards-2024/In the interview, we explore the neuroscience of uncertainty, the cultural biases that make us crave certainty, and why our discomfort with the unknown may be holding us back. Maggie unpacks the two core types of uncertainty—what we can't know and what we don't yet know—and explains why understanding this distinction is crucial for thinking well in the digital age.Our conversation also explores the implications of AI—as technology increasingly mediates our reality, how do we remain critical thinkers? How do we resist the illusion of certainty in a world of algorithmically generated answersMaggie's insights challenge us to reframe uncertainty—not as fear, but as an opportunity for discovery, adaptability, and even creativity. If you've ever felt overwhelmed by ambiguity or pressured to always have the “right” answer, this episode offers a refreshing perspective on why being uncertain might be one of our greatest human strengths.Links:Maggie: https://www.maggie-jackson.com/Uncertain: https://www.prometheusbooks.com/9781633889194/uncertain/Do you enjoy our conversations like this one?

Key Quote from Dr. Ron Beghetto: "Why isn't it okay for young people to have negative emotions in school when they're really doing difficult work? Why isn't it okay for them to get angry and frustrated? I think it's okay to recognize it. And in fact, it's supportive to let a teacher say... 'I see that you're angry. I can understand that you're angry. Do you need help? Can we support you in kind of working through this?'" Discussion Questions for Professional Learning Communities (PLCs): Navigating Uncertainty: Reflect on a time when uncertainty in your classroom led to productive learning. What factors contributed to this positive outcome? How can you intentionally incorporate uncertainty to foster creativity and problem-solving skills? Supporting Negative Emotions: How do you currently respond when students express frustration or anger during challenging tasks? What strategies can you implement to validate these emotions and guide students through them? Differentiating Uncertainty: How can you distinguish between productive and unproductive uncertainty in your teaching practices? What steps can you take to minimize unnecessary frustration while still challenging your students? Tools and Strategies: What tools can you provide students to help them navigate uncertainty and failure? How can you model resilience and a growth mindset in the face of challenges? Reflecting on Practice: How might acknowledging and discussing your own failures benefit your students? In what ways can sharing stories of overcoming obstacles inspire and motivate learners?
