Dr. Elia Gourgouris—known as America's Happiness Doctor—is a positive psychology expert, executive coach, and bestselling author of Seven Paths to Lasting Happiness. Through his books, keynotes, and coaching, Dr. Elia has helped hundreds of thousands of people achieve happiness and success in their personal and professional lives. He's also the founder of The Kindness Factor International, a movement and soon-to-be film inspiring global acts of kindness. On this episode we talk about: Dr. Elia's journey from driving a taxi to pay for college to becoming a leading happiness expert The difference between being “nice” and being truly kind—and why kindness is a superpower for happiness How money relates to happiness: the threshold effect, survival mode, and why abundance is about mindset, not just bank balance Unlearning limiting beliefs about money and success, especially for those with religious or cultural programming The power of gratitude in adversity and why self-forgiveness is a cornerstone of lasting happiness Practical exercises for self-forgiveness and breaking free from the weight of past mistakes How internal self-talk shapes identity and why treating yourself with compassion changes everything The dangers of scarcity thinking—even for those who “have enough”—and how to cultivate abundance and peace Dr. Elia's upcoming film project on kindness and his mission to inspire a global movement Top 3 Takeaways Money Buys Freedom, Not Happiness: Once your basic needs are met, more money doesn't make you happier—happiness is an inside job, built on gratitude, kindness, and self-acceptance. Self-Forgiveness Sets You Free: Carrying guilt and self-criticism is like wearing a backpack full of rocks. Forgiveness—especially for yourself—is the key to emotional freedom and lasting happiness. Don't Procrastinate Your Happiness: Stop waiting for the next milestone to be happy. Life is precious—choose happiness and kindness now, not “when” you achieve something. Notable Quotes “Money is not the enemy. Money equals freedom—not the love of money, but money itself is necessary in this world.” “Happiness is a choice, but it's also a skill set.” “Forgiveness is freedom. The ultimate act of self-compassion is to forgive ourselves.” Connect with Dr. Elia Gourgouris: Website: https://www.dreliagourgouris.com/

Henry Abbott is a former ESPN journalist, basketball expert and author of the new book, Ballistic: The New Science of Injury-Free Athletic Performance. Ballistic explores cutting-edge research into physiology and strength, pain and psychology, biomechanics and neuroplasticity, and presents an evidence-based case for intervening early to avoid injuries that contribute to our growing mobility crisis. The book reveals a surprising takeaway: The explosive moves and ground impacts we often avoid in everyday workouts might provide the secret to an injury-free athletic life. In this podcast, Henry is going to help us harness the science of ballistic movement to continue the athletic adventures that bring joy and allow us to perform at our best, regardless of age. “The explosive moves and ground impacts we often avoid in everyday workouts might provide the secret to an injury-free athletic life.” Here are some of the things we talked about in today's show: · Ballistic training can help prevent injuries by improving movement patterns. · Understanding the forces involved in landing is crucial for injury prevention. · Hip mobility is often overlooked but essential for athletic performance. · Plyometrics are a key component of training for resilience and injury prevention. · Fun and enjoyment in fitness can lead to better long-term adherence and performance. · Neuroplasticity allows for the retraining of movement patterns to enhance performance. · Injuries are not inevitable; proactive measures can minimise risk. · Relaxation is vital for optimal performance in athletic endeavors. · Regular maintenance of mobility and strength is necessary to prevent injuries. · Unlearning ineffective movement patterns is essential for improvement.

In this powerful episode of Heal Yourself with Sarah Dawkins, I sit down with Amy Stein, a chronic illness thriver and holistic guide, who shares her deeply personal 15-year healing journey. Amy opens up about the difference between healing and curing and why so many women with chronic pain and invisible illnesses are misdiagnosed or not diagnosed at all, by the conventional medical system.We talk about Amy's background as a medical researcher and how working with chronic pain patients ironically mirrored her own deteriorating health. She discusses being dismissed by doctors, the emotional toll of feeling unseen and unheard and how she finally reclaimed her health by tuning into her body's wisdom and embracing natural healing methods.You'll hear how Amy navigated multiple misdiagnoses, Lyme disease, mold exposure, food sensitivities and systemic inflammation, ultimately discovering that the body can either fight or heal but not both at the same time.If you've ever felt gaslit by the medical system or unsure where to turn next, this episode will empower you to trust yourself, listen to your body and explore holistic paths to healing.

Two years ago, I put my most personal lessons into a book — a snapshot of my unlearning up until that point... but growth never stops, and the words I wrote then have continued to evolve as I do. In this anniversary episode, I'm sharing what it's like to look back at my own teachings and add on with lived experience: the ways my understanding of love, family, success, self, and spirituality has deepened. I reflect on everything from embracing seasons of effort and ease, to realising that true love blooms alongside deeper self acceptance, to unlearning inherited patterns that no longer fit. Most of all, I explore what it means to keep becoming — to live my own story as an evolving process rather than a tidy, completed chapter. If you've ever wondered what happens after you say, “I've learned this,” this episode is for you. Let's honour the journey together and embrace the beautiful unfolding that happens after we put pen to paper. Resources from today's episode Work with Phi Learn more about 1:1 Coaching with Phi here.

Message Phi on Instagram Email Phi Two Years of The Great Unlearning Hi there, we're so back. Had a little mini unexpected but expected break. Things have been really busy in my world and a month ago I ran the Flow Retreat in Vietnam and this evening I'll be running the kick off call for the Recharge and Renew Bali Retreat in August which is sold out. The final retreat I will be running in 2025 is also in Bali at the end of September if you're interested, send me a message as it hasn't been publicly officially launched yet. Today happens to be the 2nd anniversary of my book The Great Unlearning: Awakening to Living an Aligned and Authentic Life. Happy birthday to my baby and in honour of this birthday and celebration I thought I would talk about my journey Two Years of Unlearning My Own Teachings. Growth is expansion. You know, it's funny how a book can feel like a time capsule — a snapshot of who you were and what you believed in a particular moment. Two years ago, I poured my heart onto those pages. Every word was true to me then. I guess what I didn't fully realise at the time is that those words would also become seeds… seeds that would continue to grow in me as much as they might grow in you. So as I reflect on these two years — celebrating this book's anniversary — I'm less interested in rewriting what I wrote and more interested in adding on. Adding those subtle new threads that life, practice, and my own unlearning have revealed. Unlearning Success Expanding on success and abundance feels like opening a wider door — beyond just seasons or mindset, into the energetic dance that happens between us and the flow of life. Since writing the book, I've become more aware of how deeply our relationship to success is intertwined with our inner alignment — not just what we do, but who we are in each moment. Success isn't just the visible achievements or milestones; it's also the invisible states of being: the patience in waiting, the trust in timing, the surrender when things don't move as planned. These inner states carry an energy that either opens the channel for abundance or blocks it. I notice when I'm pushing against my own values and boundaries — when I'm forcing myself to hustle out of scarcity or fear. That kind of push drains my energy and leads to frustration and burnout. When I align my actions with what truly matters to me, honouring my boundaries and staying true to my values, I move from a place of deep alignment and joy. This energetic awareness has become my compass — guiding me to recognise when it's time to step forward with purpose and when it's time to pause and protect my energy. It helps me navigate the flow between effort and ease,

About The RenewingThere's a way the world teaches us to live—fast, anxious, disconnected. And there's another way. The Renewing is a podcast about resisting what deforms us and returning to what makes us whole. Inspired by Romans 12:2, it's a space to question the patterns we've inherited—hustle, disconnection, exhaustion—and imagine what healing might look like instead. Through honest conversations and deep listening, host Brent Levy explores the sacred, slow work of renewal—for ourselves, our communities, and the world.This EpisodeWhat happens when the faith you inherited no longer fits, yet something sacred still lingers? In this episode, Brent sits down with writer and creative Lauren Cibene, whose debut book, Tiger in a Lifeboat, explores deconstruction, travel, and the slow, surprising reconstruction that follows. Together, they discuss what it means to witness rather than persuade, how grief and unlearning are essential parts of healing, and why the red letters of Jesus keep drawing Lauren back.You'll hear about the holiness of hospitality, the healing power of presence, and the sacred invitation to trust yourself again. If you're navigating a spiritual shift, tender with your past, or just longing to see God in unexpected places, this conversation is for you.Learn more about Lauren here, check out her Substack here, and find her on Instagram here.

Today, we're revisiting a popular episode from the vault–How to Communicate Your Needs as a Mom with Mara Glatzel, author of Needy. As moms, we're often socialized to be selfless—to put everyone else's needs above our own, leaving us on the backburner. But when we deplete ourselves and neglect our own needs, it often leads to mental health struggles, resentment, relationship conflict, and burnout. Unlearning that socializing and discovering how to communicate your needs isn't always easy. On today's vault episode, Mara and I discuss why moms deserve to be a priority and how they can take responsibility for their own needs. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

What if everything you were taught to fear is actually sacred? In this intimate, resonant conversation, I sit down with Mariana, a dear friend and fellow teacher whose life story continues to unfold in powerful ways. Raised in a strict Catholic school environment in Mexico, Mariana shares how years of religious repression shaped her understanding of sexuality, embodiment, and spirituality and how the practices of Yoga, meditation, and humanistic psychotherapy helped her unravel those beliefs and come home to her own sacred aliveness. This episode is not a theoretical conversation. It is an embodied testimony to the power of Yoga as life itself as Shakti, as descent, as the energy that we are. Together, we question the cultural scripts that pit spirit against flesh, and remember what it means to live in a world where the seen is the source. Subjects Explored Growing up Catholic and the repression of the body Unlearning religious shame through embodied practice How Yoga reunites what doctrine divides The holiness of desire and the wisdom of William Blake Why the feminine can never be denied, only exiled Shakti as the undismissable truth of nature Key Quotes "Shakti is what we are. There's no denying Shakti." "It was as if I had finally placed the needle on the right record, and the music began to play in rhythm with my own heart." "The body is not a shell to the soul. It is the soul." "Religion told me that the closer I was to God, the further I should be from the body. Yoga showed me they were never separate." "The repression of nature is not safety. It's suffering." Key Takeaways Embodied Awakening – True spiritual life begins when we reclaim the body as sacred. Shakti Cannot Be Denied – The feminine principle is life itself—wild, wise, and ever-present. Beyond Duality – Spirit and matter are not in opposition. Yoga reveals their unity. From Shame to Sovereignty – Dismantling internalized doctrine opens the door to freedom. The Holiness of Desire – As William Blake taught, energy is delight. To feel is divine. Intimacy is the Practice – Yoga is not an escape from reality but a deep participation in it.

At the end of 2023, there was this phrase I kept hearing in my head on repeat. "It doesn't feel safe to slow down."I'd end my days feeling completely depleted mentally, physically, and emotionally. And yet I'd still push myself to do more. Sometimes it was work stuff, sometimes it was home stuff. But I had this constant, almost compulsive need to be doing something productive at all times. Rest felt elusive, like this thing other people could do, once they'd earned it. For me, rest basically just meant sleep. It was a quick reset so I could get up and do it all over again.Sound familiar? Let's figure out how we can unlearn that habit.-----Episode Mentioned: 314.

BONUS: Solution-Focused Coaching: The Game-Changing Method Every Scrum Master Needs With Ralph Miarka and Veronika Jugwirth In this BONUS episode, we dive deep into solution-focused coaching with Ralph and Veronika, co-authors of "Solution Focused Coaching For Agile Teams." This conversation explores how to shift from problem-solving to solution-building, helping Agile teams thrive through a forward-looking approach that empowers teams to find their own path to success. Understanding Solution-Focused Coaching "Solution focus, focuses on the goal itself. We are not talking about 'how', but first start with 'what we want to achieve'." Solution-focused coaching represents a fundamental shift from traditional problem-solving approaches. Rather than diving into root cause analysis and retrospectives focused on what went wrong, this methodology centers on the future and desired outcomes. It operates as a communication system that recognizes the complexity of modern work environments where simple cause-effect relationships don't always apply. In engineering, root causes make sense when dealing with predictable systems, but in complex organizational dynamics, solution-focused coaching acknowledges that we often can't identify clear root causes and instead focuses on creating a "preferred future." In this segment we refer to Solution-focused brief therapy and the Cynefin model. The Power of Not-Knowing "Instead of suggesting solutions, we should start by asking questions. The “Not-knowing position” is about accepting this." The "not-knowing position" challenges coaches and leaders to resist the urge to immediately diagnose problems and offer solutions. When someone shares their story, they're not sharing the version we think we know. This approach transforms coaching conversations by starting with questions like "What difference would it make for you to solve this problem?" This shift toward asking questions about a positive future can even help identify advocates among those who initially resist change, creating unexpected allies in transformation efforts. Everyone as an Expert "When we help teams change by themselves, they change much faster." The principle that "everyone is an expert in their situation" fundamentally changes how coaches approach team dynamics, especially during periods of pressure or conflict. Instead of imposing external solutions, this approach involves asking teams what they already like about their current practices. For example, when observing daily standups with their natural diversity of approaches, focusing on what teams appreciate about their existing practices creates a foundation for sustainable change. Teams that discover their own path to improvement implement changes more rapidly and with greater commitment than those following prescribed solutions. The Miracle Question Technique "What would be a very small first sign that tells you that there was a small miracle during the night?" The Miracle Question emerges from real coaching conversations where clients express that "only a miracle can help." Rather than dismissing this statement, solution-focused coaches embrace the client's language to create powerful exploration opportunities. The technique involves asking teams to imagine their situation after a small miracle has occurred overnight, then identifying the first small signs they would notice. This approach helps teams explore possibilities and envision concrete steps toward their preferred future, making abstract goals tangible and achievable. Unlearning the Fix-It Mentality "Don't work by yourself in the problems of others, let them work." For Agile practitioners trained to identify and fix problems, solution-focused coaching requires a significant mindset shift. Instead of jumping into problem-solving mode, coaches must learn to hold space for solutions to emerge naturally from the team. This involves trusting that team members are experts in their own situations and developing strong questioning skills. Coaches and Scrum Masters need to clarify their own goals and resist the urge to solve problems for others, instead creating conditions where teams can work through challenges themselves. Practical Questions for Immediate Implementation "What do we want to achieve? What is our goal, and why?" Teams can immediately begin incorporating solution-focused approaches by bringing specific questions into their regular ceremonies. Key questions include exploring what the team wants to achieve and understanding the underlying purpose behind their goals. Additionally, asking "What works already?" helps teams build on existing strengths rather than focusing solely on problems. Confidence-building questions like "How confident are we?" and "What would make you more confident?" create opportunities for teams to identify specific actions that would increase their likelihood of success.
