How many times do you say “I'm fine” or “It's going” each day? And what if those little throwaway answers are actually shaping your mood, your mindset, and even your future?Here we dive into how your casual, day-to-day small talk could be programming your brain—and how you can take control of that script to create more positivity and energy in your life.

In this bitesize episode, I speak to neuroscientist and Waking Up app creator Sam Harris about the real purpose of meditation — not just calming the mind, but seeing through the illusion that we are the mind. We talk about why people struggle with their thoughts, how we get tangled in them, and what it means to see thoughts for what they really are — fleeting appearances in awareness. As I often say: you are not your thoughts — you're aware of them. This shift changes everything.

“All of humanity's problems stem from man's inability to sit quietly in a room alone” - Blaise Pascal. Rates of burnout and overwhelm are soaring and yet the advice tends to be push harder and exercise more. For people struggling with burnout this can lead to illness and a crash. On the contrary, we need to embrace stillness and simply being. Doing nothing is not easy for most people, yet it is what our nervous system's are crying out for, and it is the path to developing true resilience.

Join us for an insightful discussion with Bruce Mehlman, founder of Mehlman Consulting, as we dive into the complexities of Donald Trump's second term. In this episode, we explore the unpredictability and patterns within Trump's political strategy, the impact of executive orders, and the legislative landscape of the 119th Congress. Bruce, known for his 'Age of Disruption' Substack, provides a nuanced analysis of the anti-establishment sentiment fueling global populism, the potential for legislative action, and the evolving media landscape. Whether you're curious about the future of U.S. politics, the implications of Trump's policies, or the transformation in media consumption, this discussion offers valuable insights into the current political climate.

How Richard McCann found peace after his mother's murder by Peter Sutcliffe. At just 5 years old, Richard's life was shattered when his mother was brutally murdered by the serial killer known as the Yorkshire Ripper. In the aftermath, Richard endured further hardship, including a difficult home life and personal struggles with drugs and incarceration. Yet, through it all, Richard managed not only to survive, but to ultimately find the courage to forgive his mother's killer, liberating himself in the process. Richard's journey of forgiveness was deeply influenced by the teachings of figures like Desmond Tutu, who emphasised the liberating power of forgiveness, even in the face of the most heinous acts. We discuss ·      Richard's story and journey of forgiveness ·      His insights on the importance of acceptance, forgiveness and resilience ·      The ripple effect of Richard's story and message, and how it has impacted countless lives ·      Richard's belief in spiritual interconnectedness and the role of synchronicity in his life Links: ·      Connect with Richard on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/richardmccann ·      Learn more about Richard's work: https://richardmccann.co.uk/ The paperback edition of my book, Champion Thinking: Get Out of Your Own Way, Find Your Peak Performance, is now available.
