Mindvalley creates tech and platforms that power online academies in areas that traditional education ignores. These include mindfulness, personal growth, wellness, spirituality and more. His quest is to help move humanity to a more holistic, integrated education system that caters for the whole being.   Vishen, joining us again for another soulful conversation, strongly believes that compassion is what gives us real and genuine happiness. As he explains why compassion is the foundation to achieving all things positive in our life, how self compassion reinforces self love which leads to self care, and the disciplines we must practice so we can attain genuine happiness. We also dive into the definition of sadness, changing our perspective to turn sadness into love and compassion, and the importance of having a vision of the future, of having a clear idea of the path you want to make and take.No matter how far and long our life goals may be, self compassion and being compassionate towards others will eventually lead to having a peaceful, content, and well-meaning life.  What We Discuss:00:00:00 Intro00:03:31 What was your first meditation experience?00:06:53 How do you use meditation in your life?00:13:18 Compassion is something you do for yourself00:18:48 When did we lose compassion?00:22:03 Compassion as a technique and a quality of being00:24:08 What is happiness?00:28:40 Channeling sadness into love and compassion00:29:53 How do you stop sadness from turning into guilt?00:33:45 How to avoid having narcissistic tendencies00:35:34 Have a vision for the future00:42:21 Don’t get held back by old things00:47:46 What defines a good meditation?00:50:02 Testing the parameters of your destinyEpisode ResourcesVishen Lakhiani | WebsiteVishen Lakhiani | FacebookVishen Lakhiani | TwitterVishen Lakhiani | InstagramVishen Lakhiani | YouTubeVishen Lakhiani | LinkedInVishen Lakhiani | BooksThe Mindvalley PodcastDo you want to meditate daily with me?

Today, I’m going to share with you my first ever public interview with my friend Tom Bilyeu of the Impact Theory podcast. It is one of my favorite conversations because we talk about the power self awareness has in influencing your relationships with others especially with the people close to you and at work. I also talk about breaking free from the norm, from what society expects from us, and from the limits we have set for ourselves. Once we become self aware, we can then start asking questions that need honest answers and we can often get these answers from people we look up to and from our experiences. And as the level of self awareness increases, we make better decisions and eventually, enjoy positive results.If you want to pre-order the book, 8 Rules of Love, go to https://8rulesoflove.com/Key Takeaways:00:00:00 Intro00:04:54 How did you find your fourth option?00:13:07 We live in echo chambers00:16:50 What is power?00:20:14 What’s the best part of being a monk?00:23:45 What is an ideal life?00:26:51 Start your day with gratitude00:32:49 Self awareness00:40:47 Questions to ask yourself00:44:46 Three questions you are often asked00:49:31 The three E’s of life00:51:52 Making wisdom go viralLike this show?

Alex is the creator, host, and executive producer of the hugely successful podcast and brand Call Her Daddy, which amasses millions of listeners per episode and frequently tops Podcast charts. In 2018, Alex began to blaze a path through the podcasting medium that had never before existed: a space where women were encouraged, empowered, and emboldened to share their unapologetic stories and truths. Now one of the most listened to female podcasters in the world, Alex continues to break all boundaries by shattering stigmas and stomping on misogyny, all while keeping mental health and personal empowerment at the forefront. Her thought-provoking conversations are meticulously designed to explore wide-ranging topics such as life experiences, culture, health, relationships, and more, all through her lens of comedy and extreme candor. To the millions of devoted gen-z and millennial listeners (“The Daddy Gang”) the Call Her Daddy brand represents a new set of values and standards, with many quotes and phrases permeating pop-culture vernacular. In addition, the Boston-bred entrepreneur has a successful merchandise line, as well as several exciting business endeavors in the pipeline.   Alex bravely shares how she suffered through constant bullying in her younger years and the trauma she still carries because of it, the pain of feeling uncomfortable with your body, and how creating content has helped her find calmness, peace, and purpose. We talk about how gender equality remains a delicate subject, how women can help other women through various programs and campaigns, and how self respect is one of the things we owe to ourselves.  We also discuss how social media can heavily influence our thoughts and actions, how to set boundaries with it and for yourself, and why finding the right partner plays a big role in our success.Throughout the conversation, we learn that despite the many challenges we’ve faced and will face in the future, there’s no other way but to keep moving forward. Having the will to do so will help mold us to become a better version of ourselves.  What We Discuss:00:00:00 Intro00:04:56 What was your favorite thing about Italy?00:06:33 “I turned to making content as an escape.”00:18:01 We all go through similar experiences00:20:07 “I’m the same person…”00:25:54 The trauma of being bullied00:32:04 We are not equal to men?00:38:18 You can be mindful and determined00:43:32 What is your relationship with respect?00:55:20 Taking the show to a different level01:00:23 It’s okay if you don’t know things01:05:46 Dealing with hate comments01:12:34 When people assume you’re a bad friend01:23:54 Respecting the privacy of your partner01:30:55 What are you looking for in a partner?01:36:45 The Many Sides Of You01:42:25 Alex on Fast FiveEpisode ResourcesAlex Cooper | InstagramAlex Cooper | TwitterCall Her DaddyDo you want to meditate daily with me?

Today, I am bringing something new to the table. With my good friend, Lewis Howes of The School of Greatness podcast, we’ve decided to join our heads together to talk about conversations that are uncomfortable, pressing on taboo topics, a bit thought provoking, and sometimes awkward to discuss openly. This is a space where we try to answer questions many of us may have thought of but didn’t have the opportunity to freely seek for answers.So, welcome to the first episode of the Awkward Therapy Conversations. Lewis and I address the doubts surrounding our spirituality and becoming successful. Can we aspire to be wealthy and be spiritual at the same time? Do we have to give up success and wealth to deepen our spiritual intention? Let’s try to evaluate our relationship with money, how to stay humble throughout this journey, why success built on purpose is more fulfilling than just accumulating wealth. Key Takeaways:00:00:00 Intro00:04:21 Can you aspire to be wealthy and be spiritual at the same time?00:06:15 Should we admire people who are wealthy?00:10:20 Influential people with deep spiritual intention00:20:19 How have you stayed humble in success?00:31:55 Purpose is the only thing that keeps giving to you00:39:00 Stories of success00:43:46 What is your daily spiritual practice?00:47:28 The biggest thing we struggle with00:53:41 Money comes to you when you’re ready for it 00:58:05 Let’s evaluate our relationship with moneyLike this show?

Today, I’m going to talk about the difference between overthinking and thinking effectively, what leads us to overthink things instead of thinking through them to get clear answers, and why we tend to overthink and lose focus.I share three ways we can differentiate the two and the characteristics we should look out for so we don’t end up wasting our time overthinking. Additionally, I list down four ways we can pivot from being an overthinker to becoming an action-doer, a rational thinker who wouldn’t shy away from making mistakes and failing, and has the initiative to take risks and seize opportunities. If you want to pre-order the book, 8 Rules of Love, go to https://8rulesoflove.com/Key Takeaways:00:00 Intro02:03 The difference between thinking and overthinking07:32 Difference #1: Time12:04 Difference #2: Action14:53 Difference #3: Structure16:34 You’ll never feel ready18:48 Expect failures and mistakes20:01 Break down what you want to achieve to the smallest things22:33 Surround yourself with people who take actionLike this show?

Noah is a Grammy award-nominee, multi platinum, Nashville-born and Los Angeles-based singer and songwriter. Emerging in 2016 at the age of 16, she immediately captivated audiences with platinum singles "Make Me (Cry)" and Again. Noah teamed up with PJ Harding for the People Don't Change EP in 2021. Along the way, she performed at Coachella twice, while Billboard named her among its "21 Under 21" for three straight years. She also shined on The Late Late Show with James Corden, The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, Ellen, and The Today Show. Now, she introduces the next chapter with the "I Burned LA Down".Noah shares to us a vulnerable side of her and how music has helped her heal from her past. Growing up she mentioned that self-love and self-acceptance was something that she never really practiced and is still a difficult thing to do at the present but she is a work in progress and even though life is full of ups and downs, she is moving forward. We also exchanged our thoughts on why change is inevitable for people and how we can be comfortable with it. Noah herself experienced a life changing experience and I am so honored to hear her story. Checkout her latest album here: https://noahcyrus.lnk.to/thpWhat We Discuss:00:00:00 Intro00:03:53 “I just wish the days are longer”00:07:02 Healing our inner child00:10:23 Self-acceptance and self-love00:13:57 Healing through music00:19:03 Falling out of love00:23:27 Do people change?00:28:23 Life changing experience00:34:11 Worshiping other people00:38:53 “I can” mentality00:42:40 Noah on Many Sides To UsEpisode ResourcesNoah Cyrus | InstagramNoah Cyrus | TwitterNoah Cyrus | FacebookDo you want to meditate daily with me?
