At 25, Guru Yogishivan was surrounded by luxury in the Middle East. He had trained as a martial artist and become a boxing champion. By most standards, he had success. But as he spent time around people who had money and influence, he noticed that no one seemed free from fear. Whether it was fear of loss, fear of death, or fear of not having enough. So he began asking the people around him if they were truly happy. That question sent him on a very different path. In this episode, we explore his journey from athlete to monk... and what his search for truth might mean for men entering their next chapter of life. We discuss: What happens when success no longer feels like enough Why your identity is constantly changing Whether losing your career is actually losing yourself What 24 minutes a day of inward focus might change A disciplined daily practice for reconnecting with yourself Resources: Book an Ask Yogi Session YouTube: Indimasi Healing Village Facebook: Indimas Healing Village Instagram: Indimasi Healing Village Whatsapp: +91 62386 00274

If you wait until you're ready to sell to start planning, you're already late. My guest on today's show is Tom Turmell, founder of TMT Capital. Tom joins me to talk about practice ownership, succession planning, and what optometrists need to understand long before they ever think about selling their practice. We discuss why creating value ahead of a transition matters, the importance of having the right advisory team in place, and how personal goals should drive exit decisions—not the other way around. Tom also shares why checking out during the sale process can be costly and why starting the planning conversation years in advance is one of the best moves a practice owner can make.

Burnout isn't a personal failure — it's often a sign you're building a business that was never designed to honour YOU.In this episode of Unjaded, Vickie Dickson breaks down why building your business according to your Human Design isn't just a “nice-to-have,” but the only sustainable way she's found — after more than 30 years of entrepreneurship — to avoid burnout entirely.Using a powerful real-life case study of a 6/2 Manifestor in deep burnout, Vickie walks you through how ignoring your natural energy rhythms eventually catches up to you — in your sales, your launches, your health, and your creativity.This episode is a call to stop forcing yourself to work the way the online world demands — and start honouring how you're actually designed to operate, lead, rest, and create impact.If things that used to sell easily are suddenly stalling…If your body feels exhausted but your mind keeps pushing…If you're questioning whether you can keep going the way you have been…This conversation will land.What You'll Learn in This Episode:Why burnout is a design problem, not a mindset problemHow Manifestors burn out by pushing through instead of honouring rest cyclesWhat a “closed” (self-contained) aura actually means for Manifestors in businessWhy launches and sales stop converting when your energy is depletedHow ignoring your creative flow eventually impacts your healthThe hidden conditioning behind overworking, especially with a defined WillWhy many 6-line profiles feel like they're failing before stepping into legacyHow pre-selling legacy work can create space for rest and recoveryWhy the most magnetic offers right now are built your way, not the algorithm'sThe early signs your business is asking you to slow down — before your body forces itKey Takeaway:You are the engine of your business. If you run yourself into the ground, the entire system collapses. Human Design isn't about doing less — it's about doing what actually works for your energy so you can create impact without burning out again.Your business should support your life — not consume it.Links and Resources:Book a Human Design Business Reading with Vickiehttps://www.vickiedickson.com/human-design-readingUse coupon code SAVE50 at checkoutConnect with Vickie on Instagram: @vickie.dickson

"You're a strong candidate, BUT you're just not the right fit." For senior executives, this phrase is one of the most common reasons job offers fall apart—and one of the least understood. In this episode, we break down what "not the right fit" actually means at leadership levels and why it has very little to do with your resume or qualifications. Senior hiring decisions are driven by trust and resonance, not credentials. You'll learn why highly polished, impressive candidates often lose to less-experienced ones, the difference between performance and recognition in interviews, and the three dimensions of resonance that determine who gets hired. If you keep making final rounds but not closing (or feel misaligned in roles that look perfect on paper) this episode will change how you approach your job search.

This bonus episode is something truly special.In our 100th episode, we mentioned that our friend and wedding officiant, Julian Rivera, created a custom music mix that served as our wedding vows. After many of you asked to hear it, we decided to share it here.Instead of traditional vows, each of us sent Julian songs that were meaningful to us—without knowing what the other chose. We also had no idea how it would all come together. The result was a five-minute soundtrack that told our story through music, heard for the very first time during the ceremony.This episode is simply the music that carried our vows—personal, unique, and unforgettable. We're honored to finally share it with you.Resources:Book a Free 30 minute points & miles consultationStart here to learn how to unlock nearly free travelSign up for our newsletter!BoldlyGo Travel With Points & Miles Facebook GroupInterested in Financial Planning?Truicity Wealth ManagementSome of Our Favorite Tools For Elevating Your Points & Miles Game:Note: Contains affiliate/sponsored linksCard Pointers (Saves the average user $750 per year)Zil Money (For Payroll on Credit Card)Travel FreelyPoint.meFlightConnections.comThrifty Traveler PremiumLTH Online Points & Miles In Depth Course: Use coupon code "BOLDYGO" for a 50% discount!Connect with DeAndre & Taryn:
