Highlights:
In this thought-provoking episode, Ray Higdon addresses the often-overlooked issue of feeling unfulfilled by success or fearing that success won't be fulfilling. He explores the concept of 'acts and agreements,' terms he learned from his transformative experience at the Landmark Forum. Ray delves into how these ingrained patterns and beliefs can drive behavior and decision-making, often irrationally, and offers insights on how awareness and prayer can help manage them. By sharing personal stories and client experiences, Ray illustrates how identifying one's 'act' and breaking free from negative 'agreements' can bring about profound changes. Tune in for actionable advice and spiritual guidance aimed at helping you find true fulfillment in your accomplishments. ——
Last year I did one of those Landmark Forum personal development courses, which, by the way, I recommend.One of the takeaways was that one should publicly declare one's goals and aspirations. In doing so, several things happen.You make yourself more accountable. Knowing that others now know your goals pushes you to take stronger action to achieve them. You thus become more committed to them. The act of public statement also solidifies goals both in your mind and in the public perception, thereby moving them beyond an abstract idea to something more concrete. The act of articulating goals also clarifies what it is you are actually looking for and may even give you new insights.Support networks can also emerge: friends, family, peers, contacts are more likely to help in some way, if they know what you are trying to achieve. They might introduce you to helpful people. Those who have been down similar paths might be able to offer advice, assistance or collaboration.You will have something to keep referring back to, better enabling you to track progress, which will further reinforce the whole thing.Finally, making such a declaration makes you vulnerable, but that is actually empowering and liberating. It reduces internal conflict; while others might empathise and want to help you for your honesty.With all this in mind, I thought I would share my New Year resolutions with you. I hope you find some interest, amusement or even motivation in them.Some are quite personal, but for reasons stated above, I've decided to post them anyway. I hope it is not TMI.I always tend to overdo it with my resolutions - reach for the sky and then, even if you fall short, you still end up pretty high.So here they are:Health, Body & Mind* Stay fit and strong. Weights two or three times a week. Something aerobic two or three times a week. Plenty of stretching. Daily deadhangs, pelvic floors, breathing and neck exercises.* Keep drinking less.* Fast once a week.* Eat more protein.* Get good at lucid dreaming. (Lucid dreams are when you are aware you are in a dream, while you dream - dreaming is something I have got very interested in of late).* Read at least 15 books. I read a fair bit, but most of it is online. I hardly seem to read actual books any more - my phone always takes priority. Put this right.* Try and do some mindfulness meditation stuff once per week.Money* Invest well and grow my net worth - and the net worth of Flying Frisby readers - by at least 20%. On which note, if you are buying gold to protect yourself in these uncertain times, I recommend The Pure Gold Company. Pricing is competitive, quality of service is high. They deliver to the UK, the US, Canada and Europe or you can store your gold with them. More here.Work & Career - Laughter, Acclaim, Opportunity* Continue producing consistent, interesting content for this Substack and grow it - both subscribers and revenue - by 25%.Apropos of which, why not subscribe?* Get better at PR and marketing, significantly grow my online presence - both as comic and commentator - and build a bigger following. ( I have a plan here).* Finish my musical about the Peasants' Revolt.* Write my Gilbert and Sullivan musical.* Write stage and screen adaptations of Kisses on a Postcard.* Make something significant happen with Kisses on a Postcard. I've put that in bold because it is perhaps the most important of all to me. We are talking about something that could be as big as Oliver! or The Sound of Music, if there are any producers reading this.* Try and get some comedy gigs in the US and grow a presence there* Get more gigs and better gigs in the UK, working towards a full-scale tour.* Keep writing the songs, making people laugh and produce another album by year end (I try and produce one a year).* Get my new book, The Secret History of Gold, as good as possible; and market it as well as possible, especially in China and the US. (It's due out in August).* Practice my uke and singing most days and get better at both.A lot of asks: I think I might be going against everything I said here on Wednesday.Enjoying this article? Then why not subscribe …Love and Family* Be the best father I can be to Samuel, Eliza, Lola and Ferdie. Set a good example. Love them unreservedly. Help them fulfil their potential.

I'm not going to say I won't achieve all these goals, as that defeats the purpose (I never manage all of them but I'M NOT GOING TO SAY THAT). If nothing else, at least I'll have something interesting to write about this time next year.This isn't all about me. What about you? What are your goals? What are they? Let's discuss them in the comments.I wish you a 2025 packed with happiness, growth, fulfilment, success and—fingers crossed—lucid dreams.DominicTell someone about these resolutions.PS A few final bits and pieces:* If you haven't already, take a look at my buddy Charlie Morris's monthly gold report, Atlas Pulse.

Priscilla shares her background in neurodivergence inclusion and how she became involved with Landmark during a vulnerable time in her life. The conversation delves into the psychological techniques used by Landmark, the emotional manipulation participants experience, and the parallels between Landmark and the troubled teen industry. Priscilla highlights the importance of understanding these dynamics and the potential harm they can cause to individuals seeking help.In this conversation, Priscilla shares her experiences with Landmark Worldwide, discussing the emotional toll of cult involvement, the addictive nature of the elation experienced during courses, and the dangers of group dynamics. She emphasizes the need for awareness around neurodivergence in cult recovery and advocates for a critical mindset when engaging with recovery communities. The discussion highlights the importance of diverse perspectives in understanding and addressing the complexities of cult experiences.John Hunter's Research on Large Group Awareness Trainings (LGAT's) - https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B0DMPXLSM1?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1&ref_=cm_sw_r_ffobk_cp_ud_dp_VYW87V1CZQE7SC566BVH_1&skipTwisterOG=1&bestFormat=trueGet in Touch or Support:Patreon - patreon.com/thecultvaultCrimecon UK 2025 - https://www.crimecon.co.uk - use code CULT for 10% off tickets!Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/cultvaultpod/Twitter: https://twitter.com/CultVaultPodReddit: https://www.reddit.com/user/Cult-VaultGmail: cultvaultpodcast@gmail.com

When I was growing up, there was a cult-like therapy called EST (Erhard Seminars Training), which couples and singles could attend. I subsequently learned that it became Landmark Forum. I mention it because when I think of retreats, having never attended one, they always feel mysterious and somewhat secretive. Still, I know plenty of people who regularly go on retreats, and I know now how beneficial it can be to switch off from the world for several days and absorb whatever knowledge is being imparted. Kanya Ford, my guest on this week's podcast, hosts a couples retreat called Fools in Love Couples Retreat. Here, couples can take a break from their usual environment and address relationship issues. The retreat includes purposeful activities, community meals, and opportunities for couples to support and learn from each other. Each year, she introduces new elements to keep the sessions fresh and interesting.The retreat lasts from Thursday or Friday to Sunday afternoon. As she explains during our conversations, emotions can run high during the retreat, with happy tears, sad tears, and frustration. The motivation for attending the retreat varies, from reigniting sexual passion to seeking help before marriage. The retreat is open to a diverse mix of people, and the average age of attendees is between 35 and 45. What particularly fascinated me about her retreat is that she tends to keep them below ten people so each couple is able to spend quality time with Kanya and the other participants, as well as with each other.In addition to the retreat, Kanya offers one-on-one coaching and group classes called Mind Phucked (I love this!), which focus on utilising the mind to set the body free in relationships. These classes include touch yoga, pleasure mapping, and deep stretch exercises. Kanya emphasises the importance of maintaining intimacy and connection in relationships, especially in the senior years.00:00 Introduction to the Fools in Love Couples Retreat01:24 Digging into Relationship Nuances at the Retreat04:06 Addressing Emotions and Apologies at the Retreat05:13 Motivations for Attending the Retreat15:13 Utilising the Mind in Group ClassesYou can find Kanya at:https://loveandintimacy101.com/https://www.instagram.com/coachkay101Sex Advice for Seniors is a reader-supported publication.

Special Guest Joshua Peters Free giveaway https://www.paulieskaja.com/opt-in In this episode of "Live Into Your Best Life," host Paulie Skaja interviews Joshua Peters, a hypnotherapist and coach from Minneapolis. Joshua specializes in helping clients find inner strength and confidence to overcome anxiety, fear, and self-doubt, enabling them to move forward in all areas of their lives. He also hosts the "Super States" podcast, where he interviews experts in trance and personal development. Joshua shares his journey into hypnotherapy, starting with his life in a small town, where he worked a soul-crushing job and dealt with a failing marriage. His transformative experience began with attending a Landmark Forum, a weekend program that uses NLP-type language and mindset reframing techniques. This experience helped him realize that the meaning of life is what we make of it and sparked a series of life-changing decisions, including quitting smoking, finding a new job, and eventually getting a divorce. Joshua's path led him to discover sideshow acts like fire eating and bed of nails, which taught him to move past fear and step into uncomfortable situations. This period of self-discovery and empowerment was crucial for his personal growth. He later moved to Minnesota to be with a new partner, balancing his time between his children and his new life, thanks to the help of a hypnotist who helped him overcome his fears. Inspired by the effectiveness of hypnosis, Joshua mentored with a hypnotist and began helping others with similar issues. By 2018, he went full-time with his hypnotherapy practice. Paulie and Joshua discuss the importance of peeling away layers of trauma and self-doubt to reach personal transformation, highlighting that the journey may take time but is ultimately rewarding. Joshua enjoys working with creative individuals and those who are self-motivated, as they tend to engage deeply with the process and see significant results. He emphasizes the importance of making conscious choices and letting go of burdensome elements of one's life to move forward and live fully. Joshua recounts his journey of letting go of his past life, symbolized by an act of physically throwing rocks into a dumpster and leaving everything behind. He emphasizes the importance of intentional actions and planning, detailing how he gave a six-month notice at his job to align with his future aspirations, which culminated in selling his house and making a clean break from his old life in August 2018. Joshua reflects on the significance of being in alignment and how it facilitated his steps toward personal growth and fulfillment. He uses the analogy of a map, suggesting that while a straight path from point A to point B is ideal, life often requires navigating through various hubs where everything clicks into place. The conversation shifts to Joshua's podcast, which he started as a way to network and discuss topics that intrigued him but were outside the norm. The podcast allowed him to connect with interesting people and explore new ideas, further aiding his personal and professional growth. He shares how the podcast became a tool for self-expression and stretching his comfort zones. The episode concludes with Joshua offering practical advice on taking action, even if it's small steps, to start making changes in one's life. He encourages listeners to break routines and try new things to build momentum for change. Joshua also provides information on how listeners can connect with him through his website and a special email transformation program designed to help people clear out mental blocks and achieve transformation without significant financial investment. Paulie wraps up by thanking Joshua for his transparency and authenticity, emphasizing the power of storytelling in personal transformation. She encourages listeners to like, share, and subscribe to the podcast to continue receiving valuable insights and support on their journey towards living their best lives. To connect with Joshua via email: Joshua@xfactorhypnosis.com and make sure you take advantage of his free offer to begin transforming your life now through this 7 day self-hypnosis program.

My, well, my coffee is here in front of me. I'm here with Alex, my guest today. Alex, really pleased to have you on. Alex is a a keynote speaker and executive coach. He's a a a global movement leader, and he's the VP of the BIPOC Coach Collective and a partner of black leaders worldwide. Again, a man with a really impressive CV. So I'm really looking forward to the to the discussion we're gonna have today.Stuart Webb [00:00:42]:Alex, welcome to It's Not Rocket Science. Five questions over coffee.Alex Dumas [00:00:48]:Hey. Great morning, Stuart. Thank you for this invitation. Looking forward to this conversation.Stuart Webb [00:00:53]:Terrific. Well, look. Let's start with the the the the the reason that we're here, Alex. So who who are the people you're trying to help? You know, you've got an impressive CVU. You're working with some impressive people. Who who are those people that you're trying to help? What What's the the main problem they face in their business and personal lives?Alex Dumas [00:01:11]:Yeah. Great question. A lot of my work has been centered around black executive men, BIPOC leaders of color. So sometimes they're in the corporate spaces. Sometimes they're entrepreneurs, so they're coaches, consultants, things of that nature. And there's some specific challenges that they're having. Some of them look like this Webb leaders, in this case, can feel isolated. They can feel lonely because they may be the only one in the room that looks like them.Alex Dumas [00:01:37]:They may be going to boardrooms or having these conversations in c suite, and they're they're trying to crack over get in that room or if they're they're already in there, they're like, well, I'm the only one here. Maybe I'm not gonna be respected. Maybe I'm not gonna be, accepted, which is a big challenge. They have this fear of failure. Right? They're carrying this pressure of, I have to succeed so that generations down the line have opportunities too, and I'm a big proponent of that. I I really believe in making sure we focus on the generational impact, but not to the degree where it sabotages ourselves, where we harm ourselves to to be perfect, to get everything right because, Stuart, if you're like me, you make mistakes. You you flub, you you you mess up things, and then you regroup and recover. And, unfortunately, out here in America, there is that challenge of if you do mess up, if you're a person of color, then there's that stigma attached.Alex Dumas [00:02:39]:Like, oh, maybe he wasn't good enough. Maybe she wasn't smart enough, maybe we rushed her into this promotion, maybe he's not really built for this yet. And so there is that pressure to to perform, but at the same time, I look at helping them expand their dreams. Right? The dreams of this generational impact of breaking these generational curses of achieving these the financial freedom that is vital for our lives. So if someone says, hey. Money's not important. Like, let's just get back into reality for a second. Money is pretty important to support a lifestyle and and support different ventures that they five.Alex Dumas [00:03:22]:And and really the the the big dream is embracing their authenticity. Right? JustStuart Webb [00:03:30]:Mhmm.Alex Dumas [00:03:30]:Being themselves, showing up, and feeling the weight release, feeling the feeling the pressure gone, and they know that they can do their best work without this this weight on them. So those are the type of things that I work on with clients and one on one are in groups, and these are the secret dreams, the secret fears that sometimes they don't wanna admit, but it's there. That's it's what gets in the way most times of really breaking through ascending to a neck to their next level of success.Stuart Webb [00:04:01]:Alex, tell me, you you've talked talked passionately there about, you know, getting away from some of those sort of barriers that that that inhibit. I know I know you must look at some of these leaders and think, well, you know, these are the things you're doing wrong, and I'll I'll get to that in a minute. But how did you overcome some of those, some of those problems yourself? How did you manage to break through from where you were into where you are now?Alex Dumas [00:04:37]:Yeah. Good question. There's a combination of things. 1, I would say coaching was one of the big maybe maybe the biggest influence of helping me just see life differently because I came from a background of middle middle class, you know, youngest of 4 children. So I'd like to say that my parents saved the best for last, But I grew up not feeling important, feeling invisible, being in different spaces where I didn't feel heard, I didn't feel seen. And what I saw is the differences, the quality of questions I would ask myself when I was younger, going into young adulthood, all these different things. I would ask myself questions five, why is life this way? Why can't I have this? Why isn't this meant for me or why can't I be here? Those aren't bad questions, but what I found was a space to ask myself empowering questions. Questions like, well, what do I wanna create from this? What do I wanna choose to do here? Who's available or what is available that can help me and that can serve me? How can I contribute? Right? That helps that's helped me move forward.Alex Dumas [00:05:43]:So coaching and and mentorship has been a big part and, obviously, the other big revelation or the the big influence in my life has been my wife. My wife, Sarah, we've been together now for 18 years, married for 14, and she is one of the first people outside of my family, you know, and and friends, but someone who really helped me anchor and ground myself and see possibility. And I like to say it like this, if I could see a possibility that I could be in the possibility. If I don't see an option, if I don't believe that there's an opportunity for me, then the obstacles are just gonna be all I see. That's gonna be in front of my face, and I won't be able to advance.Stuart Webb [00:06:29]:That's great news. That's great. Jules, just giving you a a big big big up big up there, Alex, with with Go Alex. So I'm pleased. Jules, thank you for watching in. So we we were talking a little bit about some of the the leaders you're trying to help. Tell me, you know, what is it they've done before they sort of turn to the sort of advice, coaching that you can bring to them and help them? How have they tried to effectively, how have they tried to solve their own problem?Alex Dumas [00:07:00]:Yeah. They they've gone down a road that I've gone down when I was in nonprofit leadership for for 10 years where, 1, I would say they would try too hard. Right? Just try to force, like I mentioned before, the the pressure, they might look like working long hours, less sleep, kinda getting on the grind, you know, 5 AM wake up, 2 2 AM, go to sleep. Right? And just having this unhealthy attachment and and really addiction to trying to be successful in sacrificing time with family, sacrificing their own health journey, sacrificing if they're a person of faith or spiritual practice. Right? Because they have to get it done. They have to achieve it. They have to make the thing happen. Another challenge that I see for them and and I laugh because this is this is my life for many years of not asking for help of I should know this already.Alex Dumas [00:07:56]:I'm in this position. If I ask, then someone's gonna know that I don't know the answer, and then I look Stuart, and then they don't trust me and right? All these things that we make up in our heads, and that's that breeds resentment. That breeds gossiping. And some workplace things are are real. You know, you might hear the term microaggressions. You might hear the term, you know, I can't think of the other words right now, but just stay Webb you on this. Right? The resentment, the gossiping, and that energy attaches itself to you. Right? If I'm thinking about this manager, I don't like her Webb don't like him.Alex Dumas [00:08:37]:He's always doing this to me. Right? We come back into this victim place. This is where Mhmm. The the men I've and and clients I've worked with, that's where they struggle the most when they're putting their attention on what this person's doing and what they're up to and how they affected them. And, really, let's not victim blame. Right? It's not shame, but they take responsibility. What am I doing? Who am I being? Where am I coming from when I'm in this process or in this scenario?Stuart Webb [00:09:07]:Yeah. Yeah. I it's true, isn't it? We we so often, and I I see this with with with business leaders. They're they're focusing on, you know, what is it they're doing and and and they they choose to respond in a negative way to something. And you sort of say, well, the the the choice was entirely yours. You can choose 1 of 2 paths, and you always seem to choose the one that's somehow destructive to yourself. It is about taking that choice and making that that decision to say no. You know, like you said, your wife helped you to see if there's a if there's a path that will take take you better.Stuart Webb [00:09:46]:Take the path that will take you better. Even if somebody else is doing something, don't worry about it. You have to choose that path.Alex Dumas [00:09:53]:Yeah. It doesn't diminish it. It doesn't I I say it like this from the stage. Just because you can do anything doesn't mean you have to do everything.Stuart Webb [00:10:01]:Yes. Agreed. Absolutely.Alex Dumas [00:10:03]:Watching, someone listening, I want you to really, like, put a finger in your ear so it doesn't go out and doesn't go in and go out the other. Right? You can do anything. Yeah. You're you're more than capable. You're highly qualified. You have track record of success, but recognize there's over people in those space who can serve you, that can help you, that can actually get you there faster than you can do on your own and with more ease and with grace. And at the end of the day, who doesn't wanna have more fun in the success process? Right? This in our on our destination. It doesn't have to be this, oh, goodness.Alex Dumas [00:10:39]:I gotta do it all myself, and I'm self made. Nobody that I've ever met has been self made. And if they are, then they won't admit it because they're probably in the self destructive mode, and they can't see it.Stuart Webb [00:10:52]:Yeah. I love that, Alex. I really do love that. And I I suppose, my own journey, I I was a scientist long before I started out in business and I worked out very early on that I, you know, I was standing on the shoulders of giants because they'd come before me and worked out principles that I was just gonna extend. And, you know, so I've never ever understood this belief that somehow to be successful, you have to be self made because as far as I can see, we're all standing we're all standing on somebody else's, successes and somebody else's movement. And even if you only add a a small amount to that, as long as you add in the right way, that takes you forward. It takes everybody forward. You can lift you can lift everybody out.Stuart Webb [00:11:34]:I I do find it disappointing that people don't see that they can actually sort of, take that take the take take the positives and and move things forward. Let let's just turn to to to one of the sorry. Go ahead.Alex Dumas [00:11:50]:No. I was gonna stow this analogy out where someone told this to me long time ago about this principle of of being self made and doing it all yourself. And they asked me, it was, how how many people does it take to make a peanut butter jelly sandwich? And my initial response is like, oh, it's me. I just take the bread and I'm so, like, well, did you eat the bread? Did you package it? Did you do all these things? Did how'd you did you, were you the blacksmith that that forged the knife, the butter knife? Right? So there's a lot more out there. There's a lot more people who are contributing to your success than you believe.Stuart Webb [00:12:24]:Absolutely brilliant. Love the analogy. Love the analogy. Have you got a a valuable piece of advice? And I'm sort of gonna put, that your your website here. Have you got a valuable piece of advice or something that you'd leave with people that you can you can direct them to that that would help them in their journey to to take on some of the stuff you talking about?Alex Dumas [00:12:47]:Yeah. One of the things I would share with them is, free audio that I've recorded. It's called everybody wins 3 mistakes that leaders make, and it kinda touches on some of the things we spoke about earlier where the the pressure to perform, the the loneliness, the the hiding, the not asking for help, these are the things that get in the way of making innovative change of what Five looked to call generational impact and and uplifting communities. And this is a free audio gift. It's something I give away when I talk, so another way that I can be of use is come book me to speak for your team, for your organization. WiTalk is the win win communicator. It's a new way for leaders to listen, and it's it's coming from a place of not necessarily the tools of, like, you gotta actively listen and make sure you I really look at it from the space of, like, your state of being. Who are you when you're listening to people? What are the biases that you're holding? What are the what's the chatter inside of you that is blocking you from connecting with somebody? And and one of my signature phrases that I love to say is build a bigger bubble, and this kinda goes into the the premise of doing you could do anything, but not you don't have to do everything.Alex Dumas [00:13:59]:So building a bigger bubble meaning expanding, having a dream, having a vision so big that your team, your your your family, anybody around you can see themselves inside of it, and they actually start to champion you. They start to advocate. They start to be your evangelist of, man, this is where we're going. This is what we're doing. Who doesn't love following somebody or being on a journey with somebody who's got who's up to something big. Right? Who's up to a a huge a huge bigger larger than life vision, and it might seem impossible, but it's only impossible till we do it.Stuart Webb [00:14:34]:Brilliant. I've put the the link, to to that, which is on your website. I'll just read it out for those people who are unable at the moment to to to write anything down, but this will be in the show notes, people. It's a h t t p s colon forward slash for effect, www. Alexander Dumas coaching. That's that's obviously Alexander Dumas. He he can probably work at.Alex Dumas [00:14:55]:But but I do Alex on. Like, I'm I'm after yeah. After the Alexander Dumas.Stuart Webb [00:15:00]:Yeah. Alexand dumascoaching.comforward/f/ everybody hyphen wins. So that's alexdumascoaching.com/f/everybodywins. That'll be in the the the the show notes. Go and download that that, that that that audio. It's a free piece of content Alex gives away. So, Alex, thank you for that. Alex, it was there a particular book or a program that, that that that that that that you would leave as a a valuable, valuable thought, that sort of started you thinking about this? You've mentioned your wife.Stuart Webb [00:15:35]:There are other things that must have sort of begun to sort of make you the man you are today.Alex Dumas [00:15:42]:Yes. Yeah. Thank you. One speech in particular comes to my mind is from Les Brown. It's his famous, you gotta be hungry. Right? Yeah. Because I think he was he was in the Georgia Dome. It was some sometime probably in, like, in the late eighties, maybe early nineties, and it's a speech that Five first watched probably 2014, maybe 2015, and it to me, in my opinion, is the best speech I've ever seen, ever written, like, I've, to this day.Alex Dumas [00:16:13]:Right? I still come to it, and I still find inspiration from it. I still find nuggets from it. So that as part of an audio and seeing myself, right, seeing that model then and having this vision, this dream for myself of maybe I could do that. What would it be five if I were in front of a stadium full of people? You know, MetLife Stadium. I'm from New York originally, so I think about Giant Stadium. Like, wow. What would it be like if I could be there or Madison Square Garden? So that's one piece of content. The other book that I would say has greatly influenced my work as coaches called The Prosperous Coach that's was written by Steve Chandler and Rich Lipman, and it helped me it it connected with me in a space that it helped me slow down and look at authentic connections with people.Alex Dumas [00:16:59]:Because a lot of my early work as a coach was kind of spray and pray, kinda hunt and try to kill and get attention, look at me, and and be impressive. And what I recognize is the distinction of me being impressed Stuart doesn't allow this other person to be expressive. And when the when I work with clients, when I work with people, the thing they really want the most to know is just, do you understand me? Do you get me? Do you see me? Do you understand where I'm coming from? And if I can do that and create a safety for themselves to, you know, just kind of share a little bit more and shed the skin and get the pretenses on them, really get down to who they are and what they're they're looking to do. Miracles occur. That's the best I can call. So Prosper's Coach and that Les Brown talk, you gotta be hungry have been 2 massively influential pieces of content that have shaped who I am.Stuart Webb [00:17:51]:Alex, thank you so much. Alex, thank you for spending a few minutes with us. And I guess at the moment, you must be thinking there's a question that he hasn't asked and you really should five asked it by now. So what's the question that I should have asked you? And, obviously, if you were gonna ask a really intelligent question like that, you better give us a really good answer to it. So what is the question that you would don't think that I have asked properly?Alex Dumas [00:18:15]:Now this point isn't your fault specifically, but I think a good question that right. I'm gonna put the blame game on. But, all jokes aside, I think the I think the valuable question here would be, how do we help black leaders, black and brown leaders, ascend? Right? I think that's a great question that could be asked, and lucky for you, I have an answer for that. And that specifically is a 1 on 1 container that I I I've created called Ascension. So play on words. You can be like, oh my goodness, Alex. You're cheeky. Yeah.Alex Dumas [00:18:51]:Alright. I'm clever. I love to do fun things like that. But Ascension is this it's a 12 week intimate conversation with somebody and looking at helping them advance in their career and helping them to develop themselves as leaders, helping them to build the best practices of building relationships and and networking and building their confidence and looking at their life's work. I don't necessarily subscribe to this thought of work five balance because here I am right now, I'm speaking with you, Stuart. That means I'm ignoring my family. I'm ignoring my kids, Not because I'm bad or I'm a, you know, mean dad, but because my attention is focused on you and my work and also for you, whoever's watching, whoever's listening. My impact right now, I'm focused on you.Alex Dumas [00:19:38]:And then when I'm done, I'll be complete, and I'll move on to my family. But the things we've spoken up beef about before about how do we make impact, how do we embrace ourselves authentically, how do we create financial freedom, these are pieces of what Ascension looks like, and it's gonna be this elite edge for black men in business. This opportunity for them to just have that that thing, that one thing that separates them. I don't wanna say the competition, but separates them from holding themselves back and and it's a a beautiful offering that I five to invite anyone listening to to experience for themselves and create major major awareness and breakthroughs for their life and their business. So that's how we can help people ascend.Stuart Webb [00:20:26]:Alex, I love I love I love the fact that you've been cheeky about that, and thank you for having a clever answer to a to a question that I didn't didn't ask properly. So, Alex, I really wanna thank you for spending a few minutes with us. I know now you can go and take your focus off talking to silly people like me, and you can go and concentrate on something important like your family and your kids. And, I know you've got 2 2 kids, I think, haven't you? So you can get out there and you can you can go and enjoy your time with them rather than be, rather than be focusing on us. But thank you for spending a few minutes with us and telling us a bit about how you have, overcome those thought processes and how you're helping others to do exactly the same thing to to plow that fat path. Listen, people. I'm gonna wrap up with Alex now because he's got other things to do. If you would like to hear from, from me every week with a with an update on who's coming on to the show next week.Stuart Webb [00:21:21]:I send out one every week. And if you wanna do that, if you can go to the HTTP thing, link.thecompleteapproach.co.uk. That's link.thecompleteapproach.co.uk forward slash newsletter. You can come on and, spend a few minutes, just listening to really inspiring talking points from people as inspiring as Alex. And, Alex, I wanna just thank you, for coming on and spending a few minutes. Really appreciate the effort you've taken, and, I wish you I wish you get out and spend some time with your kids because, they're as important as anything else you you're doing at the moment.Alex Dumas [00:22:02]:No. Much appreciated. And I'll say this, there's nothing been silly about this conversation. I love the questions. I love your energy, and thank you for inviting me onto this program and for my work. If this is influential, this is supporting, you know, at least over person. Alright? That that sounds like a cliche, but, really, if it helps moves one person, then I've done my job. I've I've served in a way that I know how to do best, and I'm gonna spend some time with the family then get back to doing what I do best, making a difference, and contributing.Stuart Webb [00:22:33]:I'm with you on that, Alex. If we can help one person, that's Webb person that we've, we've pushed a little bit further. And who knows? They will take the they they will take us on further.

Five questions over. I've got a copy. Billy's got one. Billy, this is gonna be a brilliant conversation. I'm really looking forward to this man. Billy Stuart, he is a world champion boxer. As you can tell, he's doing his he's doing his warm up now.Stuart Webb [00:00:35]:I'm gonna beStuart Webb [00:00:36]:in trouble. Up. I'mStuart Webb [00:00:38]:ready. I'm gonna be in trouble with this one. Billy, world champion, but he's turned what he knows about boxing into helping you become a better leader because he can help you change your mindset to the mindset he had to have as a world champion boxer. If you can imagine not having the fear of being boxed out of a ring by your business and taking on your competition and taking them on in a way that you will not only believe is possible, but this man can take on the world. Billy, it is my absolute pleasure to have you here on it's not rocket science, 5 questions over coffee. I'm really looking forward to this because you are such an inspirational motivational speaker. Thank you for spending a few minutes with us, and I know we've had to sort of put this one back a bit because you weren't well. So I hope you're feeling really good.Billy Schwer [00:01:28]:I'm 10 out of 10 today for you right now. I am a 10 out of 10. And it's it's not rocket science. It is science. The sweet science as Boxed is well known. The noble art and the sweet science. Yes. It isStuart Webb [00:01:43]:Listen. I am gonna have so much I five so much trouble keeping this man inside of this box. Listen, Billy, tell us. What is it? You you know, who is it you're trying to help with this? Because you I mean, you know, you've you've gone from boxing. You you you you know, you're now a really motivational, inspirational speaker. Who is it you're trying to help, or what is it you're trying to teach them?Billy Schwer [00:02:05]:Basically, it's business leaders and teams. So what I'm all about, inspiring and empowering leaders, teams, individuals to be able to punch above their weight, win more often, and experience more success in all that they do. So that's the context of what I'm all about. And the work that I do is such that it it allows for something else to show up within them. So we're all individuals, but we're all in a team as well because we all know without teamwork, the dream don't work. But we are an individual, so we that's the I focus on the individual within the team and the team as a whole. If everyone's aligned and everyone's boxing clever, moving towards a desired outcome as a as a unit, results can get caused. And it's starting from here, and it's being fully responsible for that.Billy Schwer [00:03:04]:And that's what I do. I get people to really look at themselves, and let's let's have a little look Stuart. I mean, the common question I ask people, where are you on a scale of 0 to 10? The listeners out there, where are you today on a scale of 0 to 10? 0 being bang knocked out on the canvas, 10 feeling like the champion of the world. So you'll you'll have a number. And, Stuart, you'll have a number. Yeah. Webb a number. So what my intention is is to really elevate whatever that number is.Billy Schwer [00:03:37]:Because a lot of people that I work with, there may be a 4, 5, 6. So if you're walking around operating at 50, 60% of your potential, that's what I like to do. I like to unravel what's in the way such that people can have this energy, this frequency of vibration, and operate in all areas of their life from a different frequency because things are gonna occur different if you got your if you raise your game. So my it's looking at what's in the way of people experiencing a 10 out of 10, an 8, a 9, a 10 out of 10. And that's the kind of work that I do as an individual, but as teams as well.Stuart Webb [00:04:18]:So, Billy, let's just, let me just just just ask. And and it sort of combined with my second question, which is sort of what people done before to try and get them out of this tent. We all know that some days you feel like a 10. Some days you feel like a 0. So how do you get up every single day and make yourself 10 out of 10? Because you can't get into a boxing ring and feel like you're a 0 because you will immediately get knocked out, won't you?Billy Schwer [00:04:42]:So what so I had a 138 fights in total as an amateur and a professional. So I had 45 professional fights. Winning the British, the Commonwealth, and eventually the world championships are my 4th attempt. So there were occasions where I stepped up into the ring, and I wasn't a 10 out of 10. So I've got a knack. I've trained myself Webb required to be able to generate the energy to go and do what I need to do. So I've that I'm conditioned to do that, but sometimes I don't always feel that way. So sometimes in life, we have to kinda step up and raise up and kind of generate ourselves to go and do the task ahead of us.Billy Schwer [00:05:28]:But what we want to try and do is to feel naturally more near a 10 out and just more naturally. And I don't wake up every day at 10 out of 10. Webb, I can generate a so I so my day to day, I've I've I've I've meditated, I've hydrated, I've been for a run, I've done some work. That's before Five I'm engaged in my conversation with you. So I've I know I didn't really wanna go for a run this morning because it hurts. It's hard. What makes you feel me? And I'm running and I'm thinking, Webb, I really wanna be out here running. And it's five, sometimes Webb just gotta we gotta wake up to the fact Webb gotta do things we don't always wanna do.Billy Schwer [00:06:12]:And that's the being responsible. As a fighter, stepping up into the ring, without teamwork the dream don't work. Without the without the team behind me, there was no way I could go and get into the ring. But when the bell goes, the team, they all step backwards out of the out of the ring, and we step forward. So there is no place to hide. You can run, but you can't hide. So we have to wake up to the fact of this is my life. This is it.Billy Schwer [00:06:39]:This is my challenge. This is my battle, and I can't I five to be fully responsible for it. I can't I'm not a victim. Don't be a victim. You gotta wake up to the fact of you are it. You are the one that you've been waiting for. The cavalry is not coming to save you. So then it's five, we have to surround ourselves with a supportive network of teams, and we have to look at ourselves, our mindset, lots of people neglect.Billy Schwer [00:07:10]:And it's the taking care of the mindset, our own brain health, what we feed ourselves, who we talk to, what we read, what we listen to, who are we, what we what we doing, what we up to. And that's kind of what I have to connect with. Yeah. Now I volunteer Yeah. I volunteer as a Samaritan. I know you know the Samaritan, Stuart.Stuart Webb [00:07:31]:Yeah. Yeah.Billy Schwer [00:07:32]:So Billy the boxer I have to leave Billy the boxer at the door. When I go and do a shift for the Samaritans, I have to tune in to a different Billy because Billy the boxer is is of no use to the callers. So it's being able to adapt and be aware of different parts of ourselves to tap into when required. And a lot of the time, I do rest. I recuperate. I'll go and have a lie down. I so, so important. Nourishment, food is so important for us to then be able to turn on when required because we can't be on all the time because that's stressful.Stuart Webb [00:08:14]:Billy, these are really important lessons because what you're talking about is how you bring that sort of energy, that sort of natural way of thinking to different situations in business. And and and business leaders are very poor at doing that, listening, if you like, to the environment, you know, like you were talking about the I mean, the Samaritan situation and I'm in the sales situation. They bring the same person. And what you've just really highlighted is important to bringing different bits of your energy, different bits of your personality, and making it adapt. I mean and I often say that the problem that we have is that we believe communication is about what we do, but it's not. Communication is what what the listener does, about what the person receiving the communication does. And if we end up speaking to them in the wrong tone, we end up speaking to them in the wrong way, it's a bit like one of your punches. One of your punches had to land in the right way, didn't it, in order to have any effect.Stuart Webb [00:09:13]:Pointless punching somebody in the wrong way because it doesn't actually do what it needs to do. It's just a waste of your energy. You five to tune it to exactly what you needed to do at the time. And you're right. Sorry to bring the boxing back in, but I thought it was important.Billy Schwer [00:09:28]:Stuart, you're so right. And it's the communication because we're we're communicating all the five, and it's not necessary language. It's body language. It's tone. It's how we're how we're presenting ourselves and how we're feeling. So the feeling from within so if your frequency is raised, you're gonna be just different. So if you're walking into sales environments, business meetings, an 8, 9, elevate itself, it's gonna be different. The communications, you're gonna be in tune.Billy Schwer [00:09:59]:And I meditate because what that allows to be it's like I have a heightened state. When I meditate and I do breath work, I energize my brain. And, honestly, it's like an intellectual upgrade that I have. I could experience it. My language is different. My articulation is different. It just raises myself up, and that's available for us all. If and I've been I've been playing about all of this stuff for over 20 years now, tweaking it, looking at it, what works, what doesn't work, wherever I come from.Billy Schwer [00:10:34]:And, obviously, I've got all that boxing experience, but there's all the life outside of boxing experience that I tap into as well. And it's relatable. Boxing's a great metaphor for business. It's not rocket science, but it's some kind of science, and it's it all kinda works, and it all kinda blends together, and it's all relatable.Stuart Webb [00:10:54]:Billy, this is just brilliant stuff. So I'm gonna move us on to threat question 3. Now I know that you've got a book, I can see it over there behind your shoulder. I know you give that book away free. Yeah. So tell me, how can somebody get hold of that book to understand what they're talk whatBilly Schwer [00:11:13]:you're talking about now and start to apply it to their life? Yeah. So we're gonna have a link so you guys can go and you can have the book. You can download the book, or you can download the audio of the book if you prefer listening. I I listen to lots of book. So I'm in the process of writing another book because Man Up Man Up was created from my own experience of being a man down. So I don't wanna offend anyone with the name because Man Up can be misconstrued. It's words on a on a page which can trigger people. So I don't wanna offend anyone with man up because it's not what you think it is.Billy Schwer [00:11:55]:And I may be not who you think I am. So being a boxer, you may have a preconceived opinion of me, bashing people up, having all those fights, broken noses, and having that the ability to go into the ring prepared to die, kill or be killed. Now that would kind of paint a kind of a picture, but I'm hoping that just by listening to this conversation that you get to sell maybe there's there's more to a boxer. There's more to Billy than kind of meets the eye of what a professional boxer is. And so man, I because on my retirement from the professional boxing ring, I found that transition, Stuart, to be very difficult. I went through depression. I went through an identity crisis. I went had a mental breakdown.Billy Schwer [00:12:43]:I wrecked my marriage. I went through a divorce. I had my home repossessed. I went bankrupt. I lost everything. I crashed and burned. I I was suicidal. Hence, why I volunteer for the Samaritans because I know what it feels like to be in a crisis because I was there not so long ago.Billy Schwer [00:13:05]:And I've done the work. I've unraveled Billy the Over to be free from all the constraints that life was opposing on me, my self inflicted challenges. And that's when I put those words together, mental boxing because I was mentally having a mental boxing match with myself. And then the world that I've been doing over the last 20 years is all about transforming ourselves such that we can feel different. Because when I was in the depths of despair, I all I kept saying to myself, Stuart, was, I just wanna feel good. I just I just wanna feel good. I wanna feel good because I've I was knocked out. I was a 0 ad.Stuart Webb [00:13:47]:Yeah. Yeah. That's that's and and look, and this is this is such an inspirational Stuart, and I've I've got the the the the link on this. And I'm gonna go back to this. This will be in the transcript and the show notes for this. But if you need to get hold of this book, it's Billy Schwarr, that's www.billlyshwer.com slash book. Or if you want the audio book, it's the same thing, b I, double l, y s c h w e r dot com /freehyphenaudio. Both of those links will be on the the YouTube, the LinkedIn, and everything else.Stuart Webb [00:14:25]:But, Billy, that that's a really it's a really inspirational Stuart. And I think it does demonstrate how your your your thought process produces the results, doesn't it? It is all about how you approach a situation. And and and a lot of business people today, and I I I speak to a lot of business owners who are wanting to sell their business. And it leads them into depression because it's a loss of their identity.Billy Schwer [00:14:52]:Yeah.Stuart Webb [00:14:53]:And and you went through it. You know how to get through that.Billy Schwer [00:14:57]:I I went through a a midlife crisis very early. As those as the guys that you mentioned about, they sell their business and we've become so attached to our past, and then we identify with that. And then once that's gone, as I went through, I'm no longer Billy the over. And it's when I was in the back of the ambulance on the way to hospital for the second five, that was that was when I realized that my life as I know it is over. And that was the moment that I made the toughest decision I've ever made to retire from boxing. Because I was in the back of the ambulance, and I was frightened because boxing professional boxing can be dangerous. I had a friend of mine killed in the ring. I know guys that have been permanently brain damaged.Billy Schwer [00:15:43]:And I'm in the back of the ambulance, and I'm uncertain of my future health. So it's that relationship with that part of ourselves and letting go of it I found so difficult. And you hear about that, like, you you you mentioned about business owners selling, exiting their business, and then they go through a similar thing. Lots of athletes, we all go with people at the services. They go through a similar thing, and it's supporting ourselves post whatever of the life that we've chosen. And then the the struggle for me was the reinvention, the recreation of myself. Because who am I? I was Billy the boxer. Now here I am.Billy Schwer [00:16:24]:I'm just Billy. Who's Billy? I don't know who Billy is. And that was the wake up. So I had to get conscious. I was unconscious. But then what happened with me was I I become a victim of my situation, of my circumstances, my divorce, my bankruptcy. I become a victim of it, which had me feel depressed, broke me. It broke me because I didn't have a future to live into.Billy Schwer [00:16:52]:There was boxing was no longer a future for me, and I didn't know what to do with myself. And that was the challenge. And I pursued lots of different things trying to find my thing and myself, and that was the challenge.Stuart Webb [00:17:06]:Billy, I'm really glad you found yourself. And, you know, it there must have been, you know, you've talked a bit about sort of the work you do with Samaritan. There must if was there a particular course or something which actually brought you from Billy the over to the person that we see in front of us today? What was the thing that moved you into that?Billy Schwer [00:17:24]:I've done a lot of work over the last 20 years. I've worked with masters in various different fields. And but, originally, what what really started this journey off was I did a program called the Landmark Forum. Now I did the Landmark Forum, I'll never forget it, of August 2003. I'm in a room. There's about a 150 people for 3 days. It was the first time Five experienced this kind of training. Now, you gotta remember, I've been a world champion.Billy Schwer [00:17:55]:I've had sports psychology. I've I've done all of that. I'm sitting in a room now, and I'm going through a tough five. And the conversation was over a weekend about what it is to be a human being. It's the ontology, ontological, the study of the art and science of being. So I which and I got to see who I was being in life. And let me tell you, Stuart, it wasn't pretty. Mhmm.Billy Schwer [00:18:18]:It wasn't pretty. What the traits that had me become a world champion had me winning the boxing ring. I was aggressive. I was domineering. I was selfish. I was inconsiderate. I was always right. Rah.Billy Schwer [00:18:30]:Rah. Those traits work perfectly well in the boxing arena, but it didn't work for me in my life.Stuart Webb [00:18:38]:Mhmm. Yeah.Billy Schwer [00:18:39]:Ask my ex wife. She'll tell you. It it didn't be anything else. I was that identity. But the Landmark forum, what it allowed for me was it started to just the future I didn't have a future. I started to the future started to occur different, and things started to just change for me. And the way that I was perceiving life and the future shifted and changed, and then things changed. And that's the journey that I've been on for the last over it's over 20 years I've been on that on that journey.Billy Schwer [00:19:11]:And what I've got for myself or what I've learned, I want other people to experience what I'm experiencing because it's available for each and every one of us. You don't have to it's it's it's available. If you're willing and you want to wake up and do the work, and it ain't easy because I didn't used to five myself. I'd never used to I didn't like myself because I was that those certain traits that I had, they weren't five, and they Webb they didn't work for me. And it was like so now I can I can honestly say that I love myself? I do love myself, and I love I love the life that I'm creating, the future that I'm living into, and that that's that's that's what I've got. And I've created it, and I am it, and it's available.Stuart Webb [00:19:57]:That is that that's so inspiring. And and, you know, I I so hope that that we can get this message to as many people as they possibly can because this is such a brilliant message. And I suppose it leads me to my last questions, and I'm gonna let you get on because you've got a life to lead. You've got other people to influence. And I wanna help you do it, but there must be one question that I haven't asked you that you want me to ask. And and so, therefore, what's that question I should five asked you? And, obviously, you've got to answer it because I don't know the question yet.Billy Schwer [00:20:30]:And I think we're kinda touching it, but if I may reiterate becauseStuart Webb [00:20:35]:it'sBilly Schwer [00:20:36]:so, so powerful is the question that you wanna ask me that I wish you would five asked me is is, Billy, how do you get to experience life as a tenant then?Stuart Webb [00:20:46]:That's a good question.Billy Schwer [00:20:47]:Yeah. So then so so that is we kind of touched on it in the last conversation, and it's it's I'm really clear this is so, so powerful. It's about focusing on the future, not the past. Because what I got stuck in was looking into the past. So the future will dictate for you how you feel in the present moment. Now when I retired boxing, the future that I was living into was dark. It was chaotic. It was painful.Billy Schwer [00:21:18]:So that kind of future, you can see that that would have an impact on how I feel. It kinda makes sense, doesn't it? To live it if somebody was living into chaotic, dark, painful futures, that's gonna have them feel a certain way. So the way forward is is to focus on the future, but really be responsible for designing, creating, causing, and generating that future. The dreams that we want, the futures that we wanna create, they sometimes feel a long way away, which I know what that's like. It took me 4 attempts to win the world title. Webb when I was getting bashed up in the ring, in the gym, time after time losing, I was trying my hardest, but I I was getting knocked back. And we all experience five. We get knocked back.Billy Schwer [00:22:08]:We don't always win, but we wanna win more often. It takes you gotta keep coming back, and it's and it's the focus in on that future, which is so, so powerful because we have to let the past go. Take the questions, learn the lessons, bring them into the future with you, but don't bring that past that you don't like or that you don't like about yourself. Don't bring that into the future because that's what we keep bumping into. We have to draw a line in the sand, create, design the dream future, which sounds a bit woo woo, but we are we are it. And we are the Webb are we are the one that we've been waiting for. So it's surrounding yourself with people who can support that for you. With that teamwork, the dream don't work, and that's so crucial.Billy Schwer [00:22:59]:Get the right team around you. And that's what's you experience life in some other way that you've got right now.Stuart Webb [00:23:07]:Billy, that is I mean, it's not only a lesson for life. It is a less, I mean, you know, Webb we've talked about how you can help business owners. Getting the team around you that can actually help you is the most crucial thing. You can't do everything on your own. You need the team, but you need to approach it with that positivity that you've just given up. You need to approach it by thinking about the right Billy, the right person to get in there. Billy, I can't I can't even begin to tell you how grateful I am for the fact you've spent a few minutes with me. This has been a brilliant conversation.Stuart Webb [00:23:38]:I've really enjoyed it, and I just want the whole world to hear about it. So I'm gonna help this get out to the entire world.

In today's episode I dig into fear, which, really, is just the opposite of love. It's what takes us over when our egos get involved. I cite few resources today, mostly Think and Grow Rich by Napoleon Hill, but also the Landmark Forum (www.landmarkworldwide.com) and A New Earth by Eckhart Tolle. Fear is either authentic: it awakens you to something that threatens your physical survival, or it's inauthentic: everything else. I talk about the Fear of Poverty from Think and Grow Rich, and how much of a hold that unconscious fear might have on so many of us. I also mention a couple of membership groups I co-facilitate. The Enlightened Leadership Lab (www.enlightenedleadershiplab.com) meets on Mondays from 3-4:30 central, and the Bentley Club group meets on Wednesdays from 11-12 central. There we are studying the principles of Think and Grow Rich, and will be jumping into Hill's 1938 book Outwitting the Devil next.

Coaching found Julie Starr without her looking for it, and she started to practice coaching before she knew what it was.As a project manager of large-scale change initiatives in big organisations, Julie was someone who people naturally turned to with problems – often complex, personal matters that required care and attention to their inner world.Julie acquired skills to enhance her ability to perform this role; tools like neuro-linguistic programming helped her to navigate one-to-one work, and also prepared her for the future that awaited her.At a time when coaching qualifications had yet to be developed, Julie began writing a book that would help people understand the one-to-one work she was doing. That book is The Coaching Manual and it is now in its fifth edition, having garnered critical acclaim from the likes of Sir John Whitmore, widely regarded as the founder of the coaching industry.Julie, now an executive coach, mentor, writer and speaker, has since written two more best-selling books on coaching as well as two works of fiction, all of which are inspired by her belief in the interdependency of people, and by her passionate enquiry into the nature of reality. In this episode, we also talk about:Not allowing models and frameworks to become limiting factors in our work as coachesThe power of non-attachment and the importance of working joyfullyStaying true to ourselves, and resisting the temptation to climb a ladder that is against somebody else's wallHow to charge what you would be delighted with but not amazed byHow to pursue the pathways that make sense to you in a turbulent, disorienting worldWe also discuss the biggest challenge we face as coaches: the inner and outer work we have to do to get ourselves out of the way in conversations.

Hi there, I'm Mia! I am the Creative Director of @psychedelicsalons in Vancouver, BC. I may have told you recently about my favourite chocolate micro-dosing brand or maybe we went to an art party together. You might have come across my Instagram where I showcase my writing from my upcoming book I will be publishing next year or maybe you found me because you watched my 10 g mushroom trip video. Either way, glad to meet you ✨ I founded Psychedelic Salons in 2019 after initially dreaming about it in 2017 while I was at a consciousness conference. I always knew that I wanted to create a unique entheogenic community in Vancouver, and after graduating from UBC with my degree in psychology, I enrolled in the Landmark Forum, which propelled me to make my dreams come true. It was at University that I found my passion for psychedelic medicine and research and I cofounded the UBC Psychedelic Society. I loved being able to truly and deeply connect with people authentically about the insights from intimately personal medicine journeys. https://www.instagram.com/psychedelicsalons/

In todays episode, Alysha interviews her beautiful friend Jacqueline Lafitte and hopes to “Shock the Sh*t out of Shanna!” Alysha and Jacqueline share how they met by chance after a shift in their lives. Through several “myronies” they've shared many amazing experiences. Together they've journeyed through the Landmark Forum and now both are ambassadors for the purposeful non-profit organization called SHARING. Jacqueline is an award winning 5th grade teacher. They discuss how through many myronies she found her purpose in creating curriculum to help support the need for water across the world. They also discuss Jacqueline's work in STEM education and the importance of helping others. Alysha and Jacqueline discuss their adventures as they formed a strong connection. They received messages from God and attended the Landmark Forum together, exploring cryptocurrency which all led them to further personal growth and opportunities to help others. Shanna, Jacqueline, and Alysha discussed how their paths intertwined through various connections and divine guidance, leading them to meet new people and opportunities. They trusted in what they were being told and were able to make connections that ultimately helped them fulfill their passions and missions in life. Shanna and Jacqueline also share their divinely guided journey of meeting each other and discovering their ancestral connection.

You can't escape the pain. It's a consequence of life. You can try and numb yourself, but it's not sustainable for the long term. Wherever you go, there you are. Everything about you gets carried with you until you decide to unpack the hurt, pain, and trauma. It's necessary in order to grow. The big mistake most people make is continuing to carry their traumas with them into the next part of their lives, friendships, or even a new relationship. Stephanie Castro is the Owner of At Home Pet Sitting and we have the pleasure of her sharing the journey she's taken to process the traumas and disappointments of life. In this episode, Stephanie and Jeff share their experiences with marriage and the disappointment of divorce after investing much of their time believing they were living the happily-ever-after. Stephanie recalls talking to a friend when she was crushed who had invited her to Landmark Forum, a very popular group focused on self-development. Jeff and Stephanie talk about the spiritual sides of belief, watching signs from the universe, and having blind faith when it comes to taking unprompted action. Stephanie talks about her journey into an intense self-development program with Landmark and described it as the equivalent of opening the refrigerator door, opening it, and seeing the Grand Canyon. Stephanie shares how she was at rock bottom when she made a blind decision to take a chance and invest some time in herself at the end of her marriage. In front of hundreds of people on Zoom, she shares her absolute disappointment at the ending of her marriage with a room of perfect strangers. (Just a little-known fact about Stephanie: She is not a huge fan of public speaking). This episode is riddled with takeaways for anyone going through a rough patch in life. Lean in and prepare for a very intimate discussion about the core of life.......the heart. What You'll Learn: Hitting rock bottom can be a necessary step to opening oneself up to self-improvement. Vulnerability and growth can be powerful tools to become “awake” and gain a new appreciation for life. Sharing one's story can help in the healing process. Favorite Quote "I'm on this journey. I don't think it'll ever end. I will always be on this journey of getting to know myself." -Stephanie Castro Connect with Stephanie: Facebook Instagram How To Get Involved: Addicted to Winning connects listeners through stories that prove why mindset matters.

This can be joyous, but for some it is stifling.Ray Martin lived that life and achieved great success, even being named Daily Telegraph Business Leader of the Year in 2002 as the CEO of a company that developed business leaders.But when his personal life changed dramatically, he realised his work was not making him happy and he set out on a mission to discover his authentic self.Now, as the author of Life Without A Tie, Ray tells the story of a journey of exploration that took him to 28 countries and saw him launch a global foundation, become a marathon runner, act in a play and turn himself into a coach whose clients have included more than 100 people across Asia.In this episode of The Coach's Journey Podcast, Ray describes how he learned to serve people who are trapped in a life that others expect of them, and how he allowed his inner voice to return and guide him to a life of possibility, fulfilment, and greater self-awareness.

Author and Entrepreneur Brad Szollose and I have a lot in common. We've both been on a personal development journey most of our lives. But we also have differing ways of putting our learning into the world. Brad is an author, and his book Liquid Leadership tells some of what he's learned about generational understanding and how that can affect companies. He took his fourth company, a tech company, public and ended up selling it, and used much of what he learned from that experience to help other organizations learn and best understand the different characteristics of generational leadership. Brad is a graduate of the Landmark Forum (as am I), and also utilizes spiritual practices in his work. Listen in as we have a REAL conversation about the truth each of us has come to know about ourselves. You can find out more about Brad at his website www.bradszollose.com.

I cannot understand how people get caught up in cults. I try and make sense of it as I dissect the Hulu doc "Stolen Youth" and the NXIVM Cult.
On this episode, we dive into the ways our culture has become flooded with news articles, documentaries, and podcasts about different CULTS dedicated to everything from fiber and yoga to sex and coercive control. We share what we've both learned through our OWN cult and cult-like experiences, including EACH of our very different personal encounters with the infamous Landmark Forum.

Devin: What do you see as your superpower?Cathy: My husband was given a fatal diagnosis—a cancer diagnosis—about three years ago. Told he had six to 18 months to live, which, by the way, puts everything in perspective. Because of all the work that I've done with myself and with my own self-inquiry, we were able to be with that diagnosis and continue work in the world. And my husband is now–we just got another scam result yesterday—he's been clear of cancer for a year—clear of cancer for a year from basically “you've got six to 18 months maximum.” There's a real feeling of celebration and delight and gratitude that we get to be in this beautiful world and get to make a difference with the work that we do. My husband also does work with World tree; that's why I'm saying the “we.” So, I don't know how exactly I answered your question in terms of a superpower. I just think we all want—in this world that we live in with the big challenges like the environment and then personal challenges like health issues—we want to arm ourselves with everything we can to develop ourselves as human beings.“I'm like a total tree hugger,” says Dr. Cathy Key, president of World Tree. It's the perfect job for her.The only hurdle was learning to accept that the business model for World Tree anticipates cutting down the trees—over and over again. The empress splendor trees the company grows on farms not only grow about three times faster than typical trees, but they also regrow after being harvested.“The United Nations says that demand for lumber is going to quadruple by 2050,” Cathy says. “If you truly try to get your head around that fact, you start to wonder where is all the wood going to come from because we can't grow trees fast enough to meet the demand.”World Tree founder Wendy Burton created the vision for the company, planting the fast-growing trees on farms.Cathy contrasts World Tree operations with conventional forestry:If you think about a tree we're familiar with, like a pine tree, there's a lot of pine grown in the south. It takes 25 to 30 years. When you cut the pine tree down, there's no regrowth. In fact, the soil is so rotten at that point you can't do anything with it because all you've had is like a dark pine forest. We grow regenerative tree farms, so they're often mixed with other trees or crops. In the time it's taken to grow pine, you've got three harvests of empress trees. Just the volume of lumber that you're producing is a completely different scale.From the outset, World Tree has sought to give ordinary investors an opportunity to participate. The company has about 300 farmers, mostly on small family farms, who grow trees. Pairing ordinary farmers and investors made sense.Cathy asks rhetorically, “Why should these cool, interesting investments only be available to people who are already wealthy?”Cathy notes that World Tree launched about the same time Regulation Crowdfunding was implemented in 2016, so the company has been using the new regulatory model for raising capital since the beginning. In August, World Tree completed a $3.5 million round on WeFunder.“Every year, we bring in groups of impact investors, often the tree huggers like me and people who want to do good,” Cathy says. “We can't grow that many trees in our own backyard, but the farmers grow the trees for us. Then when they're mature—they take about ten years to mature, which is just crazy—when they mature, we sell the lumber for profit—hopefully.”Cathy cautions that offerings are subject to specific disclaimers and says the company makes no guarantees. “You can't say for sure,” she says. “Then we share the profits with our farmers and our investors.”The World Tree community is developing its own culture. Cathy shared this observation:We do a lot of events where we bring back together the investors and farmers. We've had some real tearjerkers where the investors and the farmers have been on the same zoom call together at the same meeting together. They're acknowledging each other. The farmers are so appreciative that they get to participate in the program. Then, for the investors, it's our dream come true to see our trees growing so beautifully with the farmers.While Cathy is reluctant to identify anything she'd call a superpower, she acknowledges that she's been able to cope with some significant challenges and still find joy in her life and work. She didn't object to my calling it resilience, but it is more than that. Her strength includes self-acceptance as well. Forgive my using “personal resilience” here as shorthand.How to Develop Resilience As a SuperpowerCathy has been leading World Tree while her husband has faced a grave health challenge. Three years ago, he received a terminal cancer diagnosis. Now cancer-free for a year, their future is much brighter.Still, in the worst of times, she celebrated life and the opportunity to do meaningful work. She developed the ability by observing happy people and asking them about their insights. Many, she discovered, had completed a course called the Landmark Forum. Seeing happy people report having taken the course, she signed up. She calls it “transformational.”“That was absolutely key in this breakthrough from being a shy, unable-to-speak person to somebody who could,” she says. “It wasn't like I came out with more courage; I was just more okay with being a bit of a mess.”She learned to “stop trying to pretend everything's figured out, and we've got all the answers.” She says, “I'm okay with not looking perfect all the time.”She sees having “compassion for our own humanity as a starting point.”To build on that foundation, she says, “Ultimately, there's got to be some bigger goal there.”“I'd much rather have a life dealing with a big challenge like climate change or the fact that half the world isn't talking to the other half of the world,” Cathy says. “Those are big problems.”Another guiding principle she suggests is “integrity.” It is essential to live “true to my word.”By following Cathy's counsel and example, you can develop greater personal resilience as a superpower, enabling you to do more good.

Since the early 1990s, The Landmark Forum has claimed to be a “personal and professional growth, training, and development company” providing the tools for self-actualization. In reality, it's more like a NXIVM-style scam that uses pseudo-psychology, verbal abuse, and (frankly) torture tactics (including sleep and food deprivation) to make participants feel permanently dependent on the group. With the help of listener call-ins, Amanda and Isa unpack this costly self-help franchise to figure out if it's as GTFO-level as it sounds.
