On this week's episode I welcome back Cinder Smith, Registered Psychologist. We talked about the importance of taking care of mental health through unpredictable times, how to communicate with children about Coronavirus, and how to come out of this on the positive side.

On this week's episode, I have a conversation with Victoria Smith, a stress reduction coach. We got into topics like "how to take control of stress and anxiety", "how to manage stress during unpredictable times" and "the long-term implications of stress and anxiety".---I’m Victoria Smith and before the age of 30 I had shingles twice. I don’t think I’m unlike most professional women out there. We try and juggle it all and we’re holding ourselves to impossible standards. I’m sick of it.Not only have I experienced shingles twice, but I’ve suffered from depression and anxiety (postpartum with Baby #1, prenatal with Baby #2, and your run of the mill depression to boot!), worked a crazy 60 hour a week corporate job, am an adult child of divorce and oh I’m also just living my life. And I’m NOT special. I don’t tell you all this to make you feel sorry for me, I tell you this because we are the same.The good news is that through counselling, coaching and a lot of personal development work, I’m on the other side of this. What exactly does that look like? Being on “the other side”? That means that now when I go through stressful situations, I bounce back FAST. It means that my resiliency muscles are ripped (because my abs sure as heck are not)! It means that I’ve developed the skills, the systems and the supports in my life so that I genuinely believe that most days are good days. There are very few outliers.YOU can do this as well. You can bounce back faster. You can live a more peaceful life. You can actually enjoy your daily life. To learn more about Victoria, check out her website: https://stresslessladies.com

Miryah lost significant amount of weight, found confidence, balance, and happiness again.It was then that she was encouraged to participate in her first fitness competition. Fast forward, Miryah retired as a 3x undefeated World Champion Fitness Model, with four international magazine covers, and several sponsorships.

In Season 2 we switch into 5th Dimensional Conversations. I hope you enjoy this leap! Did you get sold on the “American dream” of success only to realize that being famous, rich or having the biggest house on the street was someone else’s idea of success all along? Maybe you got left with huge debt from college, a home purchase or just “keeping up with the jones.” If so, you are like me and many others and will love this casual conversation with Yev, a Harvard PHD who found that there was more to life than what society, media and mainstream education was discussing. In this conversation you will be taken past the 3rd dimension where we will discuss living consciously, radical openness and how to release the 3rd dimensional programming that most of us received throughout schooling so that you can live life exactly as you desire, making your own rules, your own success. You deserve to be selfish, to have everything you ever dreamed. Having a hard time making tough choices, keeping commitments, or quitting harmful habits? Conflicts at work or at home? Feeling like you are not living up to your full potential? Yev is a character coach and the creator of Six Streams, a system for discovering your purpose and achieving your dreams. He provides the resources you need to make conscious choices and embody who you really are.

In the deepest of darkness one can find the greatest light. Looking at ones shadows and creating an awareness brings about the light. Arguably everyone who has lived has endured some sort of trauma, some challenge or adversity. Some may cave under that pressure and live a life pointing fingers, blaming challenges for the reason to overcome failure. Steve on the other hand endured trauma beyond anything I have heard before, yet has somehow turned that experience into a platform to aid anyone in moving from feeling broken and abused to whole and empowered. Steve is literally changing one of the largest most powerful organizations in the world, the church. Giving them tools to prevent and a new way to interact with previous victims of sexual abuse. Steve also helps individuals have massive breakthroughs in every area of their life as a Beyond Intention Certified Life & Mindset Coach, International Radio Podcast Celebrity and Law of Attraction Practitioner. But he's gone from literally nothing to creating his own version of heaven on earth, by being living his authentic truth. This guy quite literally moulds his reality around his desires and creates his own space, using the Law of Attraction and mindset shifts that quite literally change people's lives!!

Don’t be selfish, something I and many others have been told throughout our lives. While on the surface it seems like a great idea there is a new paradigm unfolding. Why? Because being selfish actually allows you to give more not only to yourself but all of those around you more than by giving only to others all of the time. Join me with author of “25 and selfish,” Brittany Berger who has started a movement to empower all those who come within her wake. At first it would seem she is speaking to a very specific audience - young women - who are ready to transcend the victim mentality and use their power or choice, of free will, of creation to bring about the life of their desires. However, this Brittany is an inspiration to anyone, any age, any gender who is ready to be a great expression of love, of life expanding creation.

In this episode of the Evolved Life Podcast our host Jonathan Gudroe speaks with Steve Rowell of ‘Do Life On Purpose’. After experiencing, what can only be described as life-shattering physical, sexual, mental abuse and trauma as a child. Steve spent the majority of his early adult life struggling to keep these traumatic events hidden from the world around him, in an attempt to prevent them spilling into every area and aspect of his life. As a result of his own personal struggles and the never-ending thoughts of self-harm and suicide. Steve decided, at the age of 34 to take back control of his life, after meeting his now wife Jemma, who also had experienced huge trauma in her life and was also struggling to live the happy fulfilled life she deserved. Steve & Jemma both looked at each other’s mindsets and self-image; and both saw a whole different story in front of them, quite different to how they saw themselves. This prompted Steve to look back on his life and who he actually was. Steve saw so many instances of being an achiever, a doer, a winner. By that point, he had already aced his exams, landed multiple jobs at first interview and had some massive successes in his life, despite what he had gone through as a child and teenager. By utilizing the Law of Attraction, Steve was able to make massive shifts in his life and bring into creation his wildest dreams in some of the most unconventional ways.

This week’s Misfit Entrepreneur is Iain Grae. Iian went from broke to mult-millionaire in less than 3 years and has been featured as one of Entrepreneur Magazine’s hot 100 for the past few years. Iain has an incredible story of how he got to where he is now as the founder of Evolved Lyfe and Millionaire Prowess. Millionaire Prowess is training firm that teaches the principles Iain has used to consistently build million dollar companies. Evolved Lyfe a purpose driven leadership activation firm that helps people learn how to tap into their higher consciousness and usher in what Iain calls Heaven on Earth. The company helps high achievers, entrepreneurs, and leaders to effortlessly create wealth while making a larger impact on the world. When I first spoke to Iain, one of the things that impressed me most was the philosophy he has developed and teaches on how to succeed and thrive. He used it to create multiple successful million dollar entities. It is different than what most are teaching today and I knew that I had to share it with you in Misfit Nation. www.EvolvedLyfe.com www.EvolvedLyfe.com/Misfit Iain grew up poor and his parents never seemed to have any money. When he was 8 years old he begged his father for a motocross bike. His father told him that when he earned the money, he could have one. So, he started doing any work he could at 8 years old that he could – raking leaves, shoveling snow, etc. 3 years later, he bought his first dirt bike. This led to him starting in motocross and became a pro. And he was good. Up until about 22, he seemingly won just about everything he did in motocross, but then he took a huge dip. Tell us about the dip? Iain was living in his parent’s basement making $14,000/mo at 21 years old. He decided to travel throughout the world. He traveled around Europe and met a Swedish girl and subsequently moved to Sweden to be with her. He started running out of money, even though he has gotten a job. He wasn’t making enough to pay his bills. He had to go on welfare and could not afford to even go out for a bite to eat. This began to wear on his self-esteem and he developed a bad attitude which became pervasive in his life and his relationship. It wasn’t long before he was on plane back to the states to live in his parents basement because he had to, not because he wanted to. He felt like a complete failure. He borrowed money and was able to get a job in sales in NYC. He began to excel, but he knew that he didn’t have control over what he was selling, so he started a company with a partner called Innovation Ads in 2002-2003. The original intention was to sell ad space in taxis. Iain locked down some of the minor cities and was working on NYC, but Clearchannel was locking it up. To supplement while he was doing this, he started in online advertising. He started brokering online ad buys and developed a whole new way of doing lead generation with autoresponders. He ended up getting involved with a bunch of universities and got so good at generating leads for universities that he took over the lead management/enrollment process as well on behalf of them. Ultimately, he was able to sell the business and that propelled him into what he is doing today. At the 14 min mark, Iain answers the question, What is the Evolved Life Philosophy? It is a way of living, being, and practicing It is taking responsibility for everything that comes into your awareness Then it is reconstructing your life to suit your intention and live in divine order How does someone implement it into their life? It starts with a commitment to take the responsibility for everything that comes into your awareness Once you do that, you have the power and can use it to your advantage You must understand how important your intentions are when working with others and make sure they are aligned with yours to produce the best ideal outcomes Life is about practice. Anything you want to be intentionally great at takes practice. You cannot just make a decision and all the sudden everything will happen – you have to work at it every day. This is where the greatness is found. Changes you can make to help you re-program yourself? Stop making long “to do” lists. It is overwhelming when you cannot get things done. Instead, make an “intentions list” of what you truly intend to get done for the day Write it before you go to bed so your brain can work on ideas while you are sleeping Your intentions should be focused on the different areas of your life Break out your doubts and concerns. They are like a virus. Deliberately remove them to find the truth. One great way to do this is to be at peace in nature and let it surround you What does it mean when you talk about achieving “Heaven on Earth?” The truth is that you don’t have to achieve it, it already exists – it just matters where you place your attention. You just need to place your attention on your intention. If you are going to spend your life here, then why not live in heaven on earth? What role does faith play in your success? What is the most important thing you’ve learned about yourself and life? Divine order exists You are not your body, you have a body You are not a life, you are life. You are local host for god and can manifest through aligning the thoughts from your head to your heart and your gut. It all stems from your mind and you know when you are out of alignment – stop and get yourself realigned. Additionally, utilize others and coaches to help yourself be more aligned. At the 34 min mark, Iain talks about the principles in his book, “the 10 Principles That Made Me Millions…” Purpose: Look at this not from the “one thing I should be doing,” but instead “who am I being?” Iain gives some great examples on this. When you see how you can impact the world by creating wealth, you can see how to create that wealth and see a much bigger picture of how it comes together. Create a Statement of Desire: Fuzzy targets don’t get hit. Clearer goals do. Set the goal, but then ask “What I am willing to give up to do it?” and “What I am willing to give of myself to do it?” Do it only if you are willing to be fearless Your support system is critical and you must make the right adjustments in this area for your life and goals to thrive. Modeling greatness is a key part of this. Actively listening. The more silence that is created the louder the noise that is heard. There is so much gold to be found in the nuances of things, the small things, that makes a huge difference Your greatness is locked in where your errors are… At the 47 min mark, Iain talks about the gifts we have and how we can and should maximize them.   Best Quote: “Your greatness is locked in where your errors are…”   Iain's Misfit 3: Make a clear intention about an outcome no matter how small or large and make sure everyone is on board. Listen to the voice that comes in your head and look for doubt. This is where you find where you may have limiting beliefs. It’s not about what you are doing, it is about who you are being.

A breakthrough for closed loop plastic recycling? Two years ago Japanese scientists discovered a type of bacteria which has evolved to feed on PET plastic - the material from which fizzy drink bottles are made It was isolated at a local recycling centre. An international team has now characterised the structure of the plastic-degrading enzyme and accidentally improved its efficiency. John McGeehan of the University of Portmouth led the team and talks to Adam about where the discovery may lead. If you can't recycle plastic, you can re-use. Sheffield University chemist Tony Ryan is working to convert old polyurethane foam mattresses into hydroponic allotment beds so that people at a Syrian refugee camp in Jordan can grow their own crops.
