“It's fair and square - every square essentially helps you hit three ESG metrics with a single product.”In this episode of the Can Marketing Save the Planet podcast, we are joined by Rob Cobbold, Founder and CEO, of the brilliant organisation, Native - a platform which allows people, groups, communities and organisations of all sizes to protect the planet – one square at a time! The platform enables the purchase of ‘squares' from a range of terrestrial or marine habitats including rainforests, mangroves or coral reefs. Rob talks us through why he founded Native, “we're an evolution I suppose on binary one-dimensional carbon markets. We're trying to do things with a bit more transparency, a bit more holistically, and a bit more fairly as well.” We discuss the fact that when it comes to protecting the environment, how we are all responsible.We discuss the importance of decarbonisation, but also the reality that carbon isn't tangible, you can't see it and you can't connect to it and this creates a challenge when it comes to understanding and engagement. Rob tells us that we, (humans) have a very ‘left-brain bias', “we like to break things down into their parts so that we can manipulate them, control them and make use of them.”We talk about the unique features of Native and the fact that you can view your square(s) in real time, watching them grow and evolve. However, Rob also talks about the fact that you can also see the reality of what is happening in the places you're investing in… - “in the map of our first project in the Solomon Islands, you can see the forest, and you can also see active logging, just 50 kilometers away.” It's both exciting and sobering.Rob has so may plans for Native when it comes to how people and organisations can get involved; from everyone being able to drive positive impact and take action - seeing the impact of their investment in real-time, through to employee engagement programmes, gifting, gamification and overall creating a big talking point - bringing friends, family and partners on the journey with you.From as little as just £3 per square - there is no way you won't be motivated to buy a square or two (or more) by the end of this episode. Indeed, we're already ‘in' –and so if you invest, do let us know!Tune in and listen as we talk to Rob about:Native – the platform, it's purpose and why it's truly ‘fair and square'Why it is so important that we all take responsibility about protecting the planetHow Native enables organisations to hit the environmental (E), Social (S) and Governance (G) all in one solutionWhy transparency and fairness is critically importantHow going beyond carbon brings impact to life - (literally)The need for better stories and engagementThe need to measure impact in different waysThe need for better more accessible funding across a broader range of projectsFor more information about this nature based solution visit Native And to connect with Rob to find out more and discuss your ‘squares' - connect via LinkedIn.________________________________________________________________________About us…We help Marketers save the planet.

"Philosophy taught me not to avoid depths and darknesses, but to embrace melancholy. It was important to see how different people in history dealt with life's big questions." - Robert SummerfieldA deeply introspective conversation with Robert Summerfield, exploring his journey from a philosopher's son to a jazz student, songwriter, and documentary filmmaker. The episode reveals how his early exposure to philosophical thinking shaped his approach to music and storytelling, leading to a creative evolution that prioritizes serving others' stories over self-expression. Through his experiences in the music industry, writing for other artists, and eventually finding his calling in documentary filmmaking, Summerfield demonstrates how creative fulfillment can come from putting one's craft in service of amplifying other voices.Key TakeawaysEarly philosophical influences can shape creative expression in unexpected waysThe transition from self-expression to serving others' stories can lead to creative fulfillmentCreative evolution often involves embracing different formats and mediumsTechnical knowledge (like jazz theory) can enhance creative freedom rather than constrain itWriting for others can be a valuable phase in artistic developmentThe importance of maintaining both cerebral and intuitive approaches to creativityDocumentary filmmaking can be a powerful tool for amplifying underrepresented voicesSuccess can come from shifting focus from self-promotion to serving othersCreative growth often involves periods of feeling like a beginner againBalance between structure (journalism) and creative freedom (music) can enhance both Mindful Creative: How to understand and deal with the highs and lows of creative life, career and business Paperback and Kindle > https://amzn.to/4biTwFcFree audiobook (with Audible trial) > https://geni.us/free-audiobookSigned books https://novemberuniverse.co.ukLux Coffee Co. https://luxcoffee.co.uk/ (Use: PODCAST for 15% off)November Universe https://novemberuniverse.co.uk (Use: PODCAST for 10% off)

“Your identity and your life is lived through your body”In a time where many of us find ourselves disconnected from our bodies, Margo Steines relentlessly chased physical pain. As she recalls in her gripping memoir “Brutalities: A Love Story”, Margo pursued extreme experiences—drugs, sexual violence, and abusive relationships—as avenues to escape psychological discomfort and to feel alive.Throughout this episode, Margo shares her ever-evolving relationship with her body from working as a professional dominatrix, to an ironworker, and later as a writer and mother, the latter of which revolutionized her relationship with her body. It is a profound conversation on identity evolution, mental health, family dynamics, self-love, and what it means to be human beings living within physical bodies in this confusing modern world. Join us as we discuss:Margo's path to pursuing pain through sex work and BDSMThe power of aging and how it allows us to uncover profound truths about ourselvesNature vs. nurture and how inherent traits and environmental influences shape our identities in different waysThe lasting impact of childhood experiences in shaping adult behavior and coping mechanismsThe interconnectedness of body and identity and the transformative effect of motherhoodThe importance of ongoing self-reflection, growth, and embracing the fluidity of identityOUR GUEST: Margo Steines holds an MFA in nonfiction writing from the University of Arizona, where she is faculty in the Writing Program. Her work was named Notable in Best American Essays and has appeared in The Sun, Slate, Air Mail, Brevity, Off Assignment, The New York Times (Modern Love), the anthology Letter to a Stranger, and elsewhere. She is the author of the memoir-in-essays ‘Brutalities: A Love Story'. Margo is a born-and-raised New Yorker, a journeyman ironworker, and serves as mom to a small person.

Note to All Listeners: Ghosting is defined as: The practice of ending a personal relationship with someone by suddenly and without explanation withdrawing from all communication (Oxford Languages).When you leave an abusive situation without saying "goodbye," it's not ghosting, it's "self-protection." When you quietly exit a relationship after a boundary has been violated, it's not ghosting, it's "self-respect."

This week, the Friendship IRL podcast turns a year old. One whole year!I launched this podcast knowing this was an important topic, but the more work I do, the more I think it's such a fundamental thing we don't talk enough about. People have told me this podcast makes them feel seen, which makes me so happy. But here's the thing: I cannot do this alone. The only way we make an impact is by people listening, reflecting, and by then making small changes in their own lives. Then, we create a ripple effect, making the social fabric out there a little tighter.Today I'm talking about why I need you to care about friendship. For me, friendship is foundational, since I didn't have a strong support system growing up. Here, I go a little deeper into my story.If this is your first time listening to the podcast, or if you've been here for the very beginning: thank you. I'm really excited to dive in on year two.In this episode you'll hear about:A year with Friendship IRL: we've covered loneliness, different types of friendships, societal problems that friendship/connection impacts, lived experiences and moreMy story, growing up in an unpredictable household with substance abuse present – and why friendship isn't just “nice to have,” but foundational for so many How I relied on my friends, friends' parents, coaches, neighbors, and people around me to learn how to get out of this and not be in survival mode anymoreHow I got creative when I couldn't find that “all consuming” support system and built a broader support system for myself on instinct made up mostly of friendsReasons to care about friendship: for the people who are rock bottom, but also for the people who need support in more simple waysThe phrase “I'm fine, it's fine, everything's fine,” and the relief you can feel when you finally get the thing you needResources & LinksLike what you hear?

Hi, my name is Kiah and I am a recovering people pleaser. I'm introducing myself like I'm at a people pleasers anonymous meeting and honestly, if those groups don't exist maybe they should.As a people pleaser, I have had a tendency in my life to keep my thoughts and feelings to myself because I didn't want to rock the boat, upset people, or just generally be uncomfortable. I saw my thoughts and feelings as a me problem and I didn't want to burden anybody else with them. There are some problems with this which we'll get into in a second, but as a recovering people pleaser, one of my main goals I've been working on is being brave with my words.In this episode, we chat about:You aren't alone in your people pleasing waysThe more we internalize our feelings, the scarier they feel and the harder they are to manageKeeping your emotions and feelings bottled up doesn't serve you or othersThe power of journalingResources & Links:Join us for an Ireland Retreat!Book a Power Hour Coaching SessionLearn more about partnering with me as a speakerInquire about advertising on the Climbing with Coach Kiah podcastCheck out the Backroad Cowgirls site!Shop the Coach Kiah Store.

Exploring sexuality as a woman, let alone as a mother, is a complex initiation into facing your inner wounds and sexual shame often passed down through our mother lines. So my convo with Somatic Trauma Therapist Natalie Abraham was a deeply refreshing exploration where she touched on: Illuminating the divine paradox that is to balance the paradox of being both an erotic sensual woman & mother and dissolving the ever selfless ‘martyred mother' archetype to come into divine integration (or the healing of the Virgin/Whore divide and reclamation of the whole spectrum woman)Her powerful story of modeling healthy curious sexual exploration for her pre-teen and how to broach the uncomfortable topics of sexual education with our childrenUnpacking sexual shame that gets passed down from mother to daughter & how to create space for dialogue, curiosity and exploration in healthy waysThe importance of heart + soul in building trust for genuine intimacy and overcoming the disconnection between love + sex we see in the dating world exacerbated through Online Dating/Tinder/Porn cultureHer distinction of Sexuality vs. Sensuality and the four stages of intimacy, sensuality, sexual energy, and sex and how to use these distinctions to explore different forms of touch + closenessNatalie is a certified Somatic Trauma Therapist, an intimacy coach and heart initiator, an artist and healer, a poet. She guide's transformative journeys through multiple sensual and sexual arts including Dancing into Tantra, Rope Healing/Shibari, Erotic Explorations, Female Embodiment, Men's Circles and much more.

From Zero To Hero And Back Again with Matt LillieOur guest on the podcast today is Matt Lillie. Matt is a serial entrepreneur in the real estate, healthcare, and education space. He is currently focused on bringing business leaders together to use business as a catalyst for positive change in the world. He's also the host of the incredibly successful Brightvibe podcast.In today's conversation, you're going to hear some very personal revelations from Matt as he describes his business journey from zero to hero and back again. He's not afraid to get down and dirty with stuff you don't often hear successful leaders talk about in public forums. He shares in depth about his dark night of the soul, how it affected him personally, and what he learned to help himself break through to begin to find his way back to life again.You'll hear how you can use your business experience to evolve yourself, navigate your own “dark night of the soul” and hear Matt's sage advice about recognizing those moments of fear and discomfort that can derail us. It was so inspirational just listening to Matt being so honest and vulnerable, I think there are lessons for every leader here, to not allow false impressions to define you. And what's refreshing is, despite his deeper purpose he doesn't negate the money in business, he shares freely how he wants to make a lot of money, in fact, he wants a private electric jet as he knows that purpose and profit are not mutually exclusive.If you are interested in your own evolution, growing personally and professionally, then I encourage you to listen to this deep dialogue for insights. I suspect you'll enjoy Matt's perspective on what we can do to grow and make a difference in the lives of others. I think you'll enjoy this conversation as much as I did.Key TakeawaysMatt's unique business and leadership journey has shaped his approach to life in unexpected waysThe importance of collaboration and the power of one conversation to change the worldHow he has been able to be more authentic in his relationship with GodHow he feels about the challenges the world is facing right nowHow personal and spiritual transformation can be achieved through taking the initiative and committing to making a difference for those around us.Memorable Quote“It's not about changing a whole organization. It's what am I doing to impact that one person's life? And if I can impact that one person's life, then guess what?

In today's podcast episode, #211, I discussed why confidence is a trigger for alcohol consumption and how it manifests in both short-term and long-term ways.For example, a few days after a nasty hangover, you start to feel AMAZING in comparison. Your body has started to come back into balance. But rather than recognize this is because I'm NOT drinking. Your body and mind has associated natural pleasure with alcohol for so long, it thinks, I FEEL good, so it MUST be time for a drink However, when we apply the 5 shifts process to this moment of confidence, it can lead to understanding more about your real needs are. I also highlight the importance of being self-aware when it comes to the confidence trigger, and exploring the root cause of why one might feel confident in drinking again after an extended time away.Through exploring this trigger, you can build new neural pathways and learn to meet their needs in a healthier and more fulfilling way.Understanding the confidence trigger is important in managing alcoholThe confidence trigger can show up in short-term and long-term waysThe moment of confidence is a moment of question and needs to be explored.People need to understand how they got to the place of confidence in the first placeUnderstanding and exploring the origin of the confidence trigger holds the key to reprogramming the mindThe addictive nature of alcohol needs to be acknowledged and the emotion needs to be allowed to surface in a safe and controlled environmentThe present YOU, is ready for change. It's simply the past version of you that needs to feel safe enough to let go. Alcohol no longer fits the confident, proud version of yourself.Using the 5 shifts process, you will align your perspectives with your values and achieve your desired outcomes.Everything and more, MaryAlcohol freedom awaits you.

Artificial Intelligence Podcast Podcast Notes Key Takeaways Racism is attributing some characteristic to an entire population based on the notion that some members of that population are doing bad things “The great lie that we tell ourselves is that people who are evil are not like us, they're a class apart. People who do evil things, people who support evil people, they're not like us.” – Ben Shapiro The polarization of politics increases the likelihood of normal people supporting an evil person in order to stop someone they believe to be more evil “Politics is Veep, it is not House of Cards.” – Ben ShapiroEveryone in politics is an idiot until proven otherwise; virtually everything is done out of stupidity rather than maliceIf we remove agency from individuals, and if we blame broad-scale political rhetoric for every act of violence, then the people who pay the actual price will be the general population because free speech will go awayElon Musk taking over Twitter threatens the state's control over what can be said on the platformThe town square is online; banning people from the town square is un-personing them, and in American society, a person should not be unpersoned unless they have violated a criminal statuteJoe Biden allows the prevailing winds of his party to carry him to incredibly radical places, and then he doubles down on the radicalism in disingenuous waysThe coordinated, collusive media blackout to cut off the lifecycle of the Hunter Biden laptop story before relevant questions could be answered is a bigger story than the laptop story itself The West took the worst possible view on the Russian-Ukraine issue before the conflict ever broke out: it encouraged Ukraine to join NATO and the EU without actually letting it join, while simultaneously provoking Russia in the process There is a bizarre focus on throwing hundreds of billions of dollars in subsidies at the same three “renewable energy” technologies that aren't viable solutions to climate change “Nuclear energy is great. Nuclear energy is a proven source of energy and we should be radically extending the use of nuclear energy.” – Ben Shapiro The meaning of life is to fulfill what God made you do across a series of rolesMost good people die, are mourned by their family and friends, and are forgotten in two generations; they are the people who incrementally move the ball forward in the world, oftentimes more so than the people that are considered greatRead the full notes @ podcastnotes.orgBen Shapiro is a conservative political commentator, host of The Ben Shapiro Show, co-founder of The Daily Wire, and author of The Authoritarian Moment and other books.

While there has been a strong shift to clean energy in recent years, there has not been a corresponding way to track the path of that clean energy from its generation all the way to its delivery. A certification process is needed.That's why we had three Siemens Energy team members join Amy Pempel on today's episode of the Siemens Energy Podcast. Monika Sturm, Head of Incubation and Strategy at Digital Solutions Siemens Energy; Laura Anderson, Senior VP of Controls and Digitalization; and Jason Jermark, VP of Service Marketing and Sales Operations all shared their perspectives on this developing technology of clean energy certification.We started the conversation by asking why energy needs to be certified in the first place. We elaborated on the corresponding desire of many companies to prove that they are net-neutral, which an energy certificate could certainly help do.Monika, Laura, and Jason also shared:How different regions of the world are approaching this problem in different waysThe importance of this technology working across bordersThe value of designing a flexible system that can adapt to customer feedback and new regulationsYou'll also hear about the ability of all stakeholders to view the energy certificates at any time using blockchain technology.If you enjoyed today's show, please leave a 5-star review.

The word ‘holistic’ is defined by Oxford Languages as “characterised by the belief that the parts of something are intimately interconnected and explicable only by reference to the whole.” This definition implies what a holistic accountant is positioned to offer you the most value. But not all accountants are able to adopt a holistic approach.This blog sets out the key considerations to help you assess whether you would benefit from engaging a holistic accountant.Taxation and investing are inextricably intertwinedTaxation is typically your biggest lifetime expense. Therefore, it makes sense that you should take steps to minimise it. This includes ensuring your investments are tax-effective. The less tax you pay, the more investment returns you keep. The more you keep, the less assets you need to fund retirement.Take superannuation as an example. It’s a wonderful investment vehicle because its concessionally taxed at a rate of 15% for income and 10% for capital gains. However, in retirement (pension), all investment income and gains are tax free (if your account balance is less than $1.7 million after 1 July 2021).Therefore, it is natural for your accountant to recommend contributing into super. But if your super is invested poorly and doesn’t generate any returns, the rate of tax is inconsequential. This demonstrates how intertwined tax and investing is. In this situation, you need an accountant that not only recognises the tax benefits of super, but that can also direct you how to maximise your super investment returns. Of course, there are many examples of how tax and investing are inextricably intertwined, and this is only one.You trust your accountantAccording to research, accountants are rated as the most trusted financial professionals. The main reason for this is that they are independent. Typically, they have nothing to sell to you, other than their advice.Although, 15 to 20 years ago some accountants sold “tax-effective” agribusiness products to their clients. Unfortunately, everyone that invested lost thousands. Most accounting bodies have since banned accountants from selling products to their clients.Back to the topic of independence. Being independent means accountants don’t have any conflicts of interest. Their only interest is what is best for you. This situation has resulted in accountants being the most trusted financial professionals.Your accountant knows a lot about you and your financial position. Together with the trust you have in them, it puts them in a great position to help you.What is a holistic accountant?A holistic accountant is someone that helps you maximise your wealth on an after-tax basis. This is more than just saving tax, which is how people have traditionally thought about accountants. It recognises that no amount of tax structuring can compensate for poor quality investment or a bad strategy. The most amount of value is harnessed when the two factors are optimised. That is, when a client has high quality investments that are structured tax-effectively. The value created through optimising both is greater than the sum of the parts.But not all accountants are able to adopt a holistic approachThere are two hurdles that accountants will face when trying to adopt a holistic approach.The first is a lack of skill and experience. Its challenging for one person to keep on top of both tax and investing. They don’t necessarily have to know everything – just enough to identify any issues and opportunities. If they are successful investors themselves, their personal experience will go a long way to making them better accountants. And if they work in a multi-disciplinary team, including financial advisors and mortgage brokers, they will be able to workshop ideas with their colleagues.The second major limitation could be having the appropriate licenses including an Australian Financial Services License (AFSL) to give financial advice and Australian Credit License (ACL) to give mortgage advice. These licenses are not only onerous to apply for and retain, but they are becoming more costly too. ASIC has increased licensing fees by 160% over the past two years.Holistic accountants can work in two waysThe best arrangement that allows an accountant to adopt a holistic approach is to work in a multi-disciplinary team as it allows them to workshop ideas with their colleagues. When one firms looks after your entire financial needs, the right hand knows what the left hand is doing.The alternate solution is for an accountant to establish relationships with professionals outside of their organisation. When their client has a need, they can refer them to the most suitable professional. Whilst this approach should work in theory, in my experience, it doesn’t work well in practice. It’s just too hard to control the process and outcomes. And open collaboration can be challenging too. That is why at ProSolution we have decided to adopt a multi-disciplinary team approach. But experience tells us that working in the same office is not enough. We must work hard (and have the right systems) at ensuring we proactively collaborate on a daily basis.Who can benefit from holistic accountants?Most people would benefit from having a holistic accountant. However, the more complex your circumstances, the more you probably have to gain.Business owners and self-employed persons almost always should use a holistic accountant. The reason for this is that they tend to have more tax minimisation opportunities available to them. This means a holistic accountant can help them minimise income tax whilst allowing them to invest their profits tax effectively using the right investments and strategies.Investors also have a lot to gain from engaging a holistic accountant. Minimising tax on investments increases your after-tax investment returns. Combining a perfect investment approach/plan with a perfect tax minimisation plan creates tremendous value.How do you find a good holistic accountant?I think you can guess what I’m going to say… That is, you have already found an excellent holistic accountant. Us! But if you ask me for a less selfish answer, I suggest the best way to find a good holistic accountant is by referral, as I have previously explained here.If you would like to discuss your tax/accounting needs with us, you are welcome to email Deb Serginson. She will gather some initial information from you and introduce you to the most suitable person at our firm.

Excerpt: For the majority of the people in this world, getting motivated to exercise or even beginning to exercise is difficult. But then there are a few of us who actually do the opposite of this… We exercise too much - we go too hard, too often. While moving your body and being physically active every day (or most days) is great, like everything else in life, too much of a good thing is actually a bad thing. It can be really hard to know where that line is sometimes - between good movement, wanting to challenge ourselves and progress - and going too far.Respecting your limitations means meeting yourself where you are at progressing toward your goal in a safe, body respecting way. It means knowing what you are capable of, what injuries or mobility constraints you have, and having a clear vision of where you want to go with your fitness and why, and then taking appropriate action to get there.What you'll learn by listening:The principles of progressive overload and rest/recovery and how they apply to making gains while avoiding overtraining or injuryHow to know that you're exercising in a safe waysThe warning signs of overtrainingThe concept of body respect and how to meet yourself where you're at in your movement practice.Mentioned in the show: This is MY Year - Goal Setting Like Never Before - FREE webinar January 6thThe Motivation SecretRight Body for Me - 16 week transformative coaching programInstagramFacebookRadiant Vitality WebsiteSupport the show (https://www.buymeacoffee.com/radiantvitality)

Losing weight is easy, right? Through exercise, healthy eating, and hard work, shouldn’t you be able to reach all of your health goals? Well, it’s not so simple…-------------------------------------------This week, Justin chat’s with fellow Council coach, Drew Manning. Drew, having grown up as a healthy individual, realized that there was a disconnect between himself and his personal training clients. This is what sparked the idea of Fit2Fat2Fit. He decided he would intentionally become overweight and then try to lose it all. All within the span of one year.In this episode, Drew talks about:The side effects of a bad diet - Unprocessed foods are convenient and affordable, but they also impact your psyche in some pretty drastic waysThe emotional/mental challenges - When your sense of self is so closely tied to your body, the journey is no longer about just “losing weight”. It’s about re-training your brainLosing weight - The view from the top of the mountain is WAY different than the view from the bottom---------------------------------------------Links:The Four Agreements - Don Miguel Ruiz https://amzn.to/2CJOmGtDaring Greatly - Brené Brown https://amzn.to/2YEjcJ5Can’t Hurt Me - David Goggins https://amzn.to/2YCMQ1w----------------------------------------------Follow Drew @fit2fat2fit - https://bit.ly/3enieXiFollow Justin @justinroeth - https://bit.ly/3hLUgqFReach us through our website - https://coaches-council.com/And be sure to follow Coaches Council's Instagram @coaches_council - https://bit.ly/2Nh1163--------------------------------------------Special thanks to our Sponsor, CaniBrands: https://canibrands.com/ Use Promo Code: COACHES20

Recently I was asked to come and present to a group of team leaders at Boeing – with the goal to help with motivation and culture. This came about because some of the leaders at the company have been following my career and what I do at Vigor Ground. I had a few weeks to prepare so I dug deep into the bottlenecks I have faced in my career and business. I also thought through how I could best inspire change and give guidance in actionable steps. I don’t think the group was expecting what I ended up delivering to them, but it was what I believe is the perspective, catalyst and strategies to become a conscious leader and build an unstoppable team. I go over the majority of what I shared during that presentation and workshop in this podcast episode. IN THIS EPISODE YOU’LL LEARN: Why you MUST shift to a leadership perspective and the crucial mindset that makes you a leaderThe one thing that is stopping you from moving forward that has to change first or no other lesson will workWhy you have been given the gift of fire and must first recognize and then use it in these 5 waysThe one thing you can't lead without, and how to keep it in endless supplyThe story of Muhammad and day one leadership The 7C’s to building a winning team in business and lifeThe one “C” that is the foundation of everything and how you’re messing upThe 6 questions I ask myself daily to live my leadership valuesWhat are you broadcasting daily? One type of broadcast is going to destroy your networkThe 3-step process that we have instilled to eliminate unproductive complaining How you’re casting a vote for who you are every day, who are you voting for?Taking the temperature of your team and the 4-step process that will allow you to help change the environment LINKS AND RESOURCES: Vigor Ground Fitness and Performance: www.VigorGroundFitness.com Vigor Life Podcast (iTunes): https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/vigor-life-podcast/id1180256583?mt=2h Luka Hocevar YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCQ29YcBh-g6onRujX3wD_XA?view_as=subscriber Luka Hocevar Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/lukahocevar/ Podcast: The Coaching Habit Episode: http://vigorgroundfitness.com/ep059-say-less-ask-more-and-change-the-way-you-coach-and-lead/ Thanks so much for joining me this week.

When someone says 'this is too much, I can't do this,' the challenge that they're facing, the can't, is 'I don't know how to contain the experience of feeling this intensity of emotion playing out in my body again." That's really what they 'can't.' That's what the can't refers to and so for me the question is always how do we bring ourselves back to being able to feel that experience but feel it from a place of non-reaction. To be able to feel it and be with it and face it, or maybe face it for the first time. And then from a place of non-reaction make a different choice. And our place of non-reaction comes through stimulation of our vagus nerve through the breath and actually bringing ourselves out of fight or flight and into rest and relaxation mode -- it's all basic bodily processes, breath, relaxation, all the stuff that brings us back into a place where we can choose. But it's doing that while staying in contact with the emotion and the emotional soundtrack of the experience so that we can actually then face it, so that we can then actually start to move into and take different actions in the world. For all of us we've got those bits of work to do around ourselves.-- Pete Hamill, Leadership Coach, Author of "Embodied Leadership"Embody. Embodiment. To be embodied. Embodied movement...EMBODY is almost as big a buzz word these days in the realm of movement as fascia has been for the past 10 years. And like fascia, many of us are still trying to figure out what it actually means. We have a sense of it. We can feel it (we think). We think it's valuable, means that there's greater value, that it leads to more significant or richer experience, but maybe we're just not entirely sure what it means to be embodied.Well...we couldn't be talking to a more delightful human being and expert on the subject.Meet Pete Hamill, author of "Embodied Leadership", international leadership consultant and Program Director for their Embodied Leadership program at the Roffey Park Institute in the UK. Pete gave us a unique opportunity to explore embodiment from the perspective of not only leading but being in relationship with others.Show highlights:Embodiment defined in two waysThe difference between working on, with, or through the bodyWhat are somatic markers and can they be changedWhat's behind the "I can't", resistance, and how we might begin to respond differentlyCreating a "narrative of relevance" to support a shift in responsivenessFirst steps in facilitating greater levels of embodiment in ourselves and our studentsThis was such a moving and thoughtful conversation that took us deeply into all the things we imagine "embodiment" might be, and it was so, so much more.If you're interested in working on yourself, on exploring embodiment from the perspective of your role as teacher and leader, you're going to love this discussion. It runs the gamut from self to other and back again and begins to unravel some of our misconceptions and areas of ambiguity around being truly, deeply embodied.I'm particularly excited about this conversation because it's taking us another step closer to the realm of soul and spirit and all the good things we have coming your way in episodes to come. (We're setting you up, people ;)Listen. Enjoy.
