Awareness

“Life isn’t experienced in the thinking of—it’s experienced in the being of.”

It’s easy to attach your identity to your achievements. After all, they’re measurable and tangible. No wonder we’re quick to use them to define our worth! But what if success as we know it is a construct of the mind? 

If we identify with the mind alone, we can’t explore the full spectrum of the human experience. 

To experience it all, we have to learn how to feel and tap into our heart-centered wisdom. Often illogical and frequently wild, our heart connects us back into a deep connection with God and source – so we can remember that abundance is a birthright. 

Daniel Mangena is an international best-selling author, host of the Do It With Dan podcast, broadcaster, and an abundance coach. Daniel is entirely self-made and has spent decades perfecting his world-class coaching methodologies. In 2020, he was listed as one of the top 10 life coaches to watch. 

Daniel is on a mission to empower people to reconnect with their inherent abundance and discover meaning and joy in their lives. Daniel is passionate about this vision because he believes that world issues caused by fear and scarcity can start to dissolve away when we remember how abundant life truly is. 

In this episode, Daniel shares how he came to understand the power of heart-led living. We also dive deep into the following: 

1. Why are we so attached to and driven by results?
2. Differentiating between a life lived in the head and a life lived in the heart. 
3. How children ignite a desire for presence. 
4. The power of feeling gratitude for it all. 
5. Understanding the purpose of life [it’s a lot simpler than you think].
6. Owning the power that comes from knowing. 
7. Our relationship with God. 
8. And more…

If you’re ready to delve into life beyond what the overthinking mind says is practical and achievable, this episode has plenty to spark your thinking. 

Daniel has so much wisdom and insight to share – and his perspective is sure to open up something beautiful for your mind, your heart, and your life.  

“You can be with one person for a lifetime, but within that lifetime, you will have many different relationships with many different contexts throughout that time period.”

Because we’re not taught how to craft them, most people are ill-equipped to cultivate great relationships. Most modern relationships don’t model the Disney fairytale fantasy! Instead, we get stuck on codependency and disappointment – leading to relationship deaths, unfulfillment, and painful break-ups. 

It doesn’t have to be this way…

If we learn how to create interdependence from a place of individual sovereignty, a relationship can remain satisfying for a lifetime. 

If you want your relationship to constantly grow, deepen, and last for a lifetime, there’s no better teacher than Andy Drish. Andy is one of the few people I trust to help me navigate the art of intimacy and being in a lasting relationship. I turned to Andy after my break-up and over the past year, he’s been instrumental in the level of connection I feel with my new partner. I can’t wait for you to tap into his wisdom in this week’s brilliant episode. 

Andy Drish is a shaman, serial, entrepreneur, leader, relationship expert, and the creator of The Art of Love brand. Andy also has one of the most beautiful relationships I’ve ever had the privilege to observe and learn from. Together, Andy and Libby have created a powerful container that they lean into to help them grow. 

In this episode, Andy dives into EVERYTHING that it takes to build a relationship for a lifetime including:

1. Why are people resistant to leaning into endings? 
2. How do you know when to end a relationship and when to navigate into a new space. 
3. What happened when Andy’s partner dated another guy for a week. 
4. What shifts when you tap into your feelings instead of your mind. 
5. Reinventing yourself after you hit a peak. 
6. Eliminating fear as a fuel source. 
7. Understanding the four stages of a relationship and how to move through them. 
8. And more…

As we step into new ways of being collective, we also need to redefine how we behave and show up inside of our closest relationships. 

In this episode, Andy shares profound wisdom and insights that have the potential to evolve your relationship – whether you’ve been together for years or you’re just starting out. 

If you want to build a relationship where the love can last a lifetime, this is one episode you’ll want to check out. 

“The reason most people suck at conflict and struggle and get divorced and separated and whatever is because they have a very low threshold for discomfort around their own triggers and the other person’s triggers.” 

Learning to walk through life with other people is an art in itself because we inevitably trigger and activate each other! No wonder conflict creates havoc in our most important relationships. Everything from childhood triggers to the fear of rejection, the need to be right and battling egos, means it’s not unusual to be the cause of the pain your partner feels. 

Conflict is often the cause of the permanent breakdown of relationships. 

But what if conflict could provide a route for healing, deeper connection, and richer levels of self-awareness and expression of needs? 

Jayson Gaddis is the founder of The Relationship School and author of the new book – Getting To Zero: How To Work Through Conflict In Your High-Stakes Relationships. 

Jayson has mastered the art of creating indestructible relationships by showing people how to become skilled at navigating challenges and friction. Jayson is here to show us that we don’t have to run away from uncomfortable conversations. When you have the tools and personal commitment, you can use inevitable conflicts to strengthen your emotional intelligence and deepen the connection you and your partner feel together. 

Tune into this episode to hear Jayson and I explore: 

1. The power of taking a pause over a time out. 
2. Moving into neutrality during an argument. 
3. Creating a feeling of safety inside a conflict. 
4. Learning your partner’s reassurance statement. 
5. The principle of mutuality. 
6. Coming in with empathy instead of complaints. 
7. What to do if you have a need to be defensive and ‘right’.
8. And more…

The more I trust myself, the more I listen to myself, the prouder I am of myself.

The better our boundaries are, the more powerful our presence will be in the world.
