The Conscious Edge Podcast: Redefining Wealth as a Whole Human Experience
In this episode I'm sharing the powerful story of how a 30-minute car ride in 2017 led to the birth of The Conscious Edge. It included flow, decision-making, and trusting the process when creating something meaningful. I'm sharing the exact moment I named my business, how everything effortlessly aligned, and the lessons I learned about making decisions with clarity and confidence. If you've ever struggled with overthinking or second-guessing, this episode is for you. Key Points of Emphasis: The Difference Between Struggle & Flow – Business decisions can feel like trudging through mud or they can fall into place effortlessly. Understanding why makes all the difference. The Power of Setting Time Limits – "You will take as much time as you give yourself" when making decisions. Instead of waiting for the perfect moment, create it. How The Conscious Edge Was Named – On a 30-minute car ride, I asked for guidance and decided that before I pulled into my garage, I would have a name for my business. Trusting the Process – When we commit to moving forward, opportunities open up in ways we can't always explain, but we must take the next step when they do. Overcoming Roadblocks with Possibility Thinking – Instead of letting obstacles (like an unavailable domain name) stop you, ask, "What else is possible?" The Intersection of Science & Spirituality – The Conscious Edge is a place where modern science and ancient wisdom meet to create transformation. Taking Action on Inspired Ideas – If you don't act on an idea, it will find someone else who will. Move forward with confidence. Most People Quit Too Soon – Success isn't about never facing challenges; it's about tweaking your approach instead of starting over every time things get difficult.

Shashi Tharoor and Simon Winchester in conversation with Supriya Nair. The making of the Oxford English Dictionary (OED), under the editorship of James Murray and others, was a monumental 50-year task requiring thousands of volunteers. In his book, The Meaning of Everything: The Story of the Oxford English Dictionary, British-American author and journalist Simon Winchester, tells the story of the OED and its early editors. Winchester’s popular book, The Surgeon of Crowthorne, also tells the odd story of the murderer who contributed extensively from his prison cell. Renowned politician and author Shashi Tharoor’s latest book Tharoorosaurus covers the etymologies and eccentricities of the words in the English language. In conversation with Supriya Nair, they discuss the English vocabulary and this constantly evolving tome of lexicons. This episode is the audio version of a live online session from #JLFToronto2020.

And why I say that is whether you have got an idea, whether you have started a business and you are a solo entrepreneur, whether you got a team, whether you are scaling up your business, wherever you are it's hard, it's tough, there are great days and there are really tough days. But my advice my suggestion is whatever you are doing key going because if you are in a tough spot slowing down and getting stuck in it is not going to be the answer, keep moving through it making progress in the world. The world needs more entrepreneurs, the world needs more businesses to do something great in the world and unless we keep going and we are not going to achieve that”…[Listen for More] Click Here for Show Notes To Listen or to Get the Show Notes go to https://wp.me/p6Tf4b-70s
Tristan White is the founder and CEO of The Physio Co., a unique healthcare business focused on delivering exceptional physical therapy for seniors that ranked number one on BRW’s list of Australia’s 50 Best Places to Work in 2014, and has consistently been placed on the list for ten consecutive years. He is also the author of the book Culture is Everything: The Story, Secrets & Systems of a Startup That Became Australia’s Best Place to Work. Tristan is a qualified physical therapist who began his career working in a nursing home. He had originally hoped to work in athletic physical therapy, but after his experience at the nursing home he recognized an immediate and urgent need for a service that could help senior citizens stay mobile, safe and happy. Tristan built his business from the ground up on a foundation of strong culture, and his own experiences have evolved into his “Culture is Everything” system that helps other business leaders develop a world-class culture in their organizations. The four pillars of Tristan’s system can help any business become a great place to work, and that can lead to increased team efficiency, motivation and morale. — One of the primary things that can elevate your business into a great business is its culture. A strong culture and clear values provide many different benefits to an organization, and it is often the starting point for the Ripple Effect that you’ve heard me speak about so many times. But a great culture is more than a plaque on the wall. It’s something that is found deep within the DNA of the business and its leadership. Tristan White knows the importance of culture. Tristan is the founder and CEO of The Physio Co., an Australian business that helps bring effective physical therapy to elders and helps them maintain their mobility, safety and independence. The Physio Co. has been rated among the best places to work in Australia for ten consecutive years and even topped the list in 2014, and the main reason is its powerful culture and values. In this episode, Tristan shares why he founded The Physio Co. and why he realized early on that the best way to grow his organization was through culture-focused and values-focused leadership. Through this commitment to culture, Tristan was able to grow his business from a one-person operation to a large and thriving team that is able to deliver over 200,000 consultations every hear. I hope that you can derive great wisdom from the story Tristan shares during our conversation. His dedication to culture is something that can benefit every business in every industry. By making your culture an inextricable part of your business, you can begin a powerful Ripple Effect of your own. Please enjoy the episode.
