The Mindful Living

When a late-night ER visit revealed a cancer diagnosis, former career teacher Allison Pazuk refused to be a passive patient. In this direct, no-fluff conversation on The Mindful Living, host Sana digs into Allison’s BONKERS framework: Brave, Open, Non-conforming, Kick-ass, Emotional, Resilient, and Self-advocacy. We unpack how mindset, meditation, research, and informed choices can sit alongside conventional care without drifting into toxic positivity or conspiracy. If you’re navigating fear, treatment plans, or conflicting advice, this episode shows how to ask better questions, set boundaries, and become the CEO of your own body and life—practically, not perfectly.  About the guest: Allison Pazuk is a perseverance strategist and author who turned her “mess into a mission.” After her cancer diagnosis, she studied long-term survivor stories and distilled common threads into the BONKERS framework—now the basis of her writing and talks on courage, clarity, and informed self-advocacy.  Key takeaways : Own the room: Self-advocacy isn’t rudeness—it’s clarity. Ask direct questions until you understand options, risks, and trade-offs. BONKERS in practice: Brave: challenge assumptions and titles; request plain-language explanations. Open: study people who are where you want to be; evaluate what resonates. Non-conforming: protocols are templates, not shackles; personalize ethically and with medical input. Kick-ass: act from self-belief, not panic. Emotional: meet the mirror with honesty; regulate stress; cultivate calm. Resilient: progress without applause; measure by alignment, not speed. Self-advocacy (non-negotiable): you’re the CEO—coordinate your “departments” (mind, body, soul). Mindset ≠ denial: Strength isn’t blind optimism; it’s informed courage plus continuous reflection. Whole-person lens: Many long-term stories include nutrition changes, stress reduction, meditation, and purpose work alongside medical care. Consider these as personal supports, not universal prescriptions. Evidence and ethics: Before adopting any adjunct practice or supplement, consult qualified clinicians, review credible sources, and assess interactions with ongoing treatments. Process over perfection: Healing is non-linear; curiosity, boundaries, and consistent questions keep you moving. All health practices shared here are strictly personal experiences, not advice. We recommend listeners consult their medical team before any change.

On this The Mindful Living Podcast conversation with host Sana, trauma recovery coach and bodyworker Lori Maher breaks down nervous-system dysregulation in plain language and shares how Chinese medicine, acupressure/shiatsu, Reiki, yoga, and daily self-care helped her move from constant anxiety to steadier living. We get specific about “fight/flight/freeze,” the “window of tolerance,” what energy work actually looks like, and how to build a grounded, self-led healing practice without dismissing conventional care. This episode is for anyone curious about trauma-informed healing, somatic tools, and integrating Eastern and Western approaches. About the guest: Lori Maher is a trauma recovery coach, Reiki Master, acupressure/shiatsu practitioner, and yoga teacher with 25+ years of experience. Through her practice, State of Grace Wellness, she supports clients in recalibrating the nervous system, moving stored emotion, and rebuilding trust in their bodies. Key takeaways: Nervous-system dysregulation is common; knowing your signs of fight, flight, freeze, or fawn is the first step to intervening. The “window of tolerance” is the zone where you feel present, clear, and steady; notice when you’re edging out of it and use tools to return. Somatic and energy practices Lori uses (acupressure/shiatsu, Reiki, yoga, breath) help move stuck patterns and support regulation. Education matters: understanding trauma responses is empowering and reduces fear. Self-care is not optional for survivors; build a non-negotiable daily practice. Personal story: after Epstein-Barr/mono and chronic anxiety, consistent acupressure and Reiki over months helped Lori feel roughly “80% better,” motivating long-term practice. Eastern and Western models can coexist; medication can be appropriate for some, and personal agency remains central. Replace “fixing yourself” with building a new relationship to your experiences; healing is an ongoing practice, not a finish line.

On The Mindful Living with host Sana, Dr. Will Tuttle—author of the international bestseller The World Peace Diet and former Zen monk—breaks down how everyday choices around food, stillness, and relationships shape our health and our impact. We unpack plant-based nutrition, the role of organic and minimally processed foods, daily silence and meditation, and how creativity (music, art, writing) lifts mood, reduces cravings, and supports long-term well-being. Direct, practical, and values-aligned, this conversation links personal healing to collective compassion—without the fluff. About the Guest: Dr. Will Tuttle is a visionary author, educator, pianist, and longtime advocate for compassionate, plant-based living. His books include The World Peace Diet and The World Peace Way. He tours globally with lectures, music, and workshops that integrate mindfulness, nutrition, and creativity. Learn more at worldpeacediet.com Key Takeaways: Food is more than fuel: choosing plant-based, minimally processed, and organic foods can support energy, digestion, and clarity. Many nutrients people seek from animal products originate in plants; centering meals on vegetables, fruits, legumes, whole grains, nuts, seeds, and tubers can meet needs. Daily quiet time—gratitude, meditation, gentle movement, journaling—resets the nervous system and anchors choices throughout the day. Creativity (music, art, writing, dance, building things) is a health practice: it reduces reliance on unhealthy coping behaviors and fosters meaning. Relationships mirror our mindset; practicing compassion, non-reaction, and “boomerang” kindness strengthens connection and reduces stress. Intentional media “diet” matters: avoid fear-based, low-value inputs and consume uplifting, evidence-based content. Nature-aligned living—local food where possible, time outdoors, regular movement—reinforces mental and physical well-being. Alignment of values and actions builds integrity; seeing beings (human and non-human) with respect nurtures community health. Practical start: add one plant-forward meal daily, schedule two short silence blocks (morning/evening), and do 15 minutes of creativity—consistently. Progress over perfection: small, repeatable habits compound into sustainable change.   How to Connect with the Guest Website & resources: worldpeacediet.com Books: The World Peace Diet, The World Peace Way Music, art, and events available on the website.

On The Mindful Living podcast, host Avik sits down with Dr. Kevin Smith, functional medicine practitioner and clinical director of the Chronic Conditions Center (Pennsylvania), to dissect why so many people feel “normal labs” yet live with fatigue, brain fog, stubborn weight, and aches. We cover thyroid health, Hashimoto’s autoimmunity, the gut–thyroid–immune loop, lifestyle triggers (stress, blood sugar, hormones, inflammation), and Dr. Smith’s take on insurance-driven care. You’ll hear a direct, BS-free conversation about practical next steps: deeper testing, nutrition, sleep, stress management, and when medications are necessary versus when root-cause work should lead. If you’re navigating chronic symptoms and want a clearer plan, this episode is for you. About the Guest: Dr. Kevin Smith has practiced functional medicine since 2001 and leads the Chronic Conditions Center in Bethel Park, PA. He speaks and writes on simplifying complex health science and applying a root-cause approach to chronic conditions. Key Takeaways : Many persistent “low thyroid” symptoms may involve autoimmunity (Hashimoto’s) and non-thyroid triggers(blood sugar imbalance, cortisol/stress, sex hormones, inflammation, gut issues, toxic load). Relying on a single marker like TSH misses context; broader assessment (antibodies, nutrients, metabolic and inflammatory markers, GI health) can guide personalized care. Gut health influences thyroid and mood: nutrient absorption, immune regulation, and neurotransmitter production are interconnected. Lifestyle (nutrition quality, sleep consistency, movement, stress tools like meditation) is foundational; medications can be essential for acute/critical issues, but chronic conditions often need behavioral and systems-level changes. Managing stress and blood sugar helps stabilize hormones and energy; unresolved stress can blunt thyroid function and recovery. Patients can advocate for deeper evaluation and make measured investments in health outside insurance constraints when appropriate. Claims about “detox” and supplements require caution; pair any protocol with professional guidance and evidence-based monitoring. Always consult a qualified clinician before changing medications or treatment plans.

On this episode of The Mindful Living with host Sana, we dive into an overlooked superfood of the sea—marine phytoplankton. Guest David Hunter shares how his journey began with witnessing an unexpected recovery that sparked two decades of dedication to researching and cultivating phytoplankton. Together, we explore its potential to nourish cellular health, support pets, aid in sustainable farming, and even address environmental concerns like methane reduction and climate change. This conversation challenges conventional views of nutrition and healing while shining a light on nature’s smallest yet most vital life form. Whether you’re curious about holistic health, pet wellness, or the future of sustainable nutrition, this episode offers insights that could shift how you think about vitality and the environment. About the Guest David Hunter is a pioneer in marine phytoplankton cultivation and the founder of the Global Phytoplankton Alliance. For nearly 20 years, he has been at the forefront of developing phytoplankton for human and animal health, delivering premium nutrition products with some of the highest reorder rates in the supplement industry. His work bridges science, sustainability, and wellness, ensuring phytoplankton remains accessible while raising awareness about its potential to transform health and climate solutions. Key Takeaways Phytoplankton is the first food on the planet, powering ocean ecosystems and supplying most of the Earth’s oxygen. Early anecdotes showed unexpected recoveries from various conditions, sparking scientific curiosity about its nutritional impact. Studies suggest phytoplankton could act as a “perfect food” for mitochondria, potentially enhancing cellular energy and immunity. Benefits extend to pets, with stories of improved mobility, skin health, and vitality in dogs, cats, and even horses. Sustainable cultivation means phytoplankton can be grown like a “sea garden,” contributing to health, agriculture, and even climate solutions. Phytoplankton has potential applications in fertilizer, animal feed, and renewable energy—making it a true disruptor beyond supplements. Despite systemic barriers in mainstream healthcare, it has gained traction as a trusted multivitamin alternativewith a money-back guarantee and high repeat usage. David’s mission remains simple: one person at a time, one story at a time—bringing nature’s overlooked nutrient to those who need it most.

Guest Peggy Moore, a registered nurse with over 25 years of experience in critical care and trauma recovery, shares her journey from burnout and imbalance to reclaiming vitality through functional medicine, mindset shifts, and mindfulness practices. From understanding gut health, hormones, and inflammation, to reframing resilience and setting healthy boundaries, Peggy brings a direct and honest perspective on how women can take back control of their health. This conversation challenges cultural conditioning that tells women to push through pain and ignore their body’s signals, offering instead a roadmap to energy, balance, and purpose. If you’ve ever felt dismissed, overlooked, or told “you’re fine” when you know something is wrong—this episode is for you. About the Guest: Peggy Moore is a registered nurse, life coach, and founder of More Functional Health & Wellness. Drawing from her own healing journey, she helps women in midlife uncover the root causes of fatigue, hormonal imbalance, and chronic stress. Today, she guides women globally to embrace functional medicine, protect their energy, and thrive with purpose. Key Takeaways: True resilience isn’t about pushing through—it’s about listening to your body and knowing when to set things down. Burnout often goes unnoticed until health issues like thyroid imbalance, insomnia, and fatigue appear. Functional medicine addresses root causes—gut health, hormones, inflammation—rather than just symptoms. Mindset and self-coaching can directly impact hormonal balance and stress responses. Saying no and setting boundaries are essential tools for protecting mental and physical health. Conventional medicine offers quick fixes, while functional medicine provides prevention and long-term healing. Education is key: many women don’t realize early signs of insulin resistance or prediabetes until it’s too late. Thriving after 40 is a choice—to nourish body and mind, honor rhythms, and redefine resilience.

Founders don’t burn out because they’re weak; they burn out because they ignore how energy, recovery, and mindset shape performance. On this episode of The Mindful Living, we sit down with Alessandro Grampa, founder of Whole Grain Wisdom, to unpack a direct, science-meets-spirit view of high achievement: homeostasis over hustle, intention over impulse, and quantum-informed focus over chaotic grind. We cover: what holistic well-being actually means for entrepreneurs, whether “going holistic” dulls ambition (it doesn’t), why overstimulation and sleep debt wreck execution, how belief systems cap potential, and how to align goals with nervous-system reality so you can scale without self-destruction. Practical, grounded, and built for leaders who want results without losing themselves.  About the guest Alessandro Grampa is a serial entrepreneur and creator of Whole Grain Wisdom, a platform bridging ancient wisdom and modern science for sustainable high performance. An ADHD founder who has built multiple ventures past seven figures, he speaks candidly about panic attacks, post-COVID depression, and the mindset and recovery practices that turned his life and leadership around. He also hosts the founder-focused podcast The Founder Bible. Key takeaways : Holistic well-being isn’t supplements and hacks; it’s restoring homeostasis so the mind–body system can rebalance and perform on demand. Recovery is performance: like elite sport, training stress only pays off if recovery (sleep, light, nature, nervous-system downshift) is built into the plan. Hustle doesn’t equal outcomes. Working 60–70 hours weekly erodes clarity, decision quality, and long-term capacity; intention beats intensity. Overstimulation (urban living, artificial lighting, constant inputs) keeps the brain in survival mode, shrinking strategic thinking and creativity. “Going holistic” doesn’t soften ambition; it sharpens priorities. The goal is not less drive—it’s cleaner signal, fewer distractions, higher leverage. Belief systems run the show. If you believe success requires strain and chaos, you’ll recreate it. Rewrite the script to normalize ease with high standards. Quantum lens (energy precedes matter) is a useful mental model: inner state → outer results. Align inner clarity, then execute the plan. Purpose clarifies bandwidth. When you know what truly matters, you stop spraying energy and start compounding it where it counts. Practical move: protect sleep, sunlight, movement, and boundaries like mission-critical meetings; measure outputs, not hours. Leadership edge: calm founders attract talent, partners, and capital because conviction and clarity are visible—and contagious.

In this episode of The Mindful Living, host Sana sits down with Christian W Schnepf to challenge one of life’s most ingrained beliefs—that we must suffer before we can truly deserve joy. Christian, founder of the GoodTime App and creator of the Good Time Ratio, reveals why our culture’s obsession with sacrifice and delayed gratification is outdated, and how fulfillment can come from living in flow rather than waiting for weekends, holidays, or retirement. From redefining productivity to quantifying joy, this conversation explores how to unlearn the “good requires bad” mindset and build systems that sustain happiness in work, health, and relationships. About the Guest: Christian W Schnepf is the creator of the Good Time Ratio (GTR), the Good Time Framework, and the GoodTime App—the world’s first live dashboard to measure and improve life satisfaction. Drawing from years of research, global travel, and deep inquiry into philosophy, psychology, and human development, Christian helps people, leaders, and changemakers design lives that maximize good times instead of waiting for happiness to arrive later. Key Takeaways: The belief that suffering is required to earn joy is a cultural myth, not a universal truth. Productivity is not measured by hours worked—energy flow is the real marker of efficiency. Bad times are signals of blocked energy; good times show energy is flowing. The Good Time Ratio (GTR) helps quantify joy and provides clarity on what drains or sustains us. Passion only becomes sustainable when it’s paired with boundaries and systems that prevent burnout. We can create environments where work, relationships, and self-care all support continuous joy. Joy doesn’t have to be a contrast to pain—it can exist as a constant practice, moment by moment.

In this episode of The Mindful Living, Sana digs into the lived story behind Paradoxical Heka and Kametapysics with Reginald Martin. We unpack how ancient symbols (cross, caduceus/kundalini), depth psychology, and “as above so below / as within so without” translate into practical sovereignty—confidence, self-worth, and acting on faith rather than hiding behind dogma. You’ll hear the pivotal moments that led Reginald to question handed-down scripts, reconcile the paradox of spiritual work and money, and build a direct, repeatable way to align inner patterns with outer results. If you’re navigating reinvention, pressure from “the box,” or the fear of starting over, this conversation offers a clear, grounded lens to decode patterns and choose on your terms. About the Guest: Reginald Martin is the founder of Kametapysics, integrating ancient Kemetic science, alchemy/hermeticism, and symbolic literacy with modern life design. His work helps leaders and seekers work with paradox to claim sovereignty and act with clarity. Key Takeaways: Questioning inherited scripts matters: when “A → B → C” didn’t match real outcomes, Reginald began tracking patterns instead of promises. The cross as a practical map: vertical axis (as above/below) = idea → reality; horizontal axis (as within/without) = inner state → outer world. Symbols travel across cultures; their core meanings persist (e.g., caduceus ↔ kundalini; gold ↔ sun/enlightenment/value). Paradox shows up in money + spirituality: charging for spiritual work can surface self-worth wounds; reconciling this is part of sovereignty. Faith requires action: belief without preparation keeps you stuck; confidence grows by taking aligned steps. Family and society can be the first “system” to push conformity; sovereignty is choosing your compass without apology. Setbacks aren’t final: losing “everything” then rebuilding can prove resilience and reduce fear of future change. Practical sovereignty = seeing symbols in your own life, naming the fear, acting despite it, and adjusting until inner and outer match.

This episode of The Mindful Living examines suicidal ideation as a soul-level signal rather than a moral failing. Host Sana and guest Mridula Agarwal map how despair often hides behind everyday smiles, how small repeated disappointments snowball into catastrophic meaning, and what friends, families, and communities can practically do to notice and intervene. You’ll hear clear markers that distinguish fleeting frustration from dangerous ideation, why language matters, and step-by-step first actions to offer compassionate help without judgment. This conversation blends trauma-informed psychology, spiritual framing, and pragmatic safety steps to support anyone worried about themselves or someone they love. Keywords: suicide prevention, mental health, mindful living, community support, trauma healing, suicidal ideation. About the guest : Mridula Agarwal — healer and facilitator specializing in soul-level recovery after collapse. Mridula offers discovery sessions, group healing Zoom calls (weekly Saturday sessions), and guided programs designed to help people move from despair into sustainable integration and resilience. Key takeaways: Suicidal thoughts often hide beneath normality. People planning or ideating can appear cheerful in photos or social settings; sudden tipping points can follow ordinary triggers. Language shapes risk. Casual phrases like “I want to kill myself” normalize self-harm language and can reinforce negative self-programming; use accurate feeling language instead. Look for patterns, not single moments. Persistent resignation, repeated statements of hopelessness, narrowing of options, or repeated planning behavior matter more than one-off complaints. Warning signs to watch for: persistent low mood, emotional numbness, sudden withdrawal, detailed preparations, or distribution of affairs. How to intervene (first steps): choose a calm window, make an action plan with the person, agree on a next practical step (discovery call, professional referral, or immediate safety plan). Hold a torch, don’t rescue. Offer presence, structure, and help finding a qualified professional; encourage small measurable steps rather than platitudes. Trauma and generational weight matter. Dissatisfaction can be rooted in long-standing patterns—work with a guide or structured practices to decode and reframe those patterns. Community is essential but conditional. Healing requires both inner work and helpful others; approach when the person is relatively stable to co-design next steps. Practical resources: short guided group healings, discovery sessions and professional referrals are appropriate next actions for those showing sustained risk. Hope is tactical. Reframing memories, retrieving moments of connection, and incremental practices can restore options and dismantle the “no way out” belief. This episode discusses suicidal thoughts and experiences.

On The Mindful Living, host Sana and Colin Corby—CEO & Founder of Technology Wellbeing Ltd, TEDx speaker, and creator of the Digital Detox Coach—break down how to reclaim time, attention, and health in a hyper-connected world. From Colin’s mid-30s stress wake-up call to finishing Ironman triathlons, this conversation makes the case for training your mind like an athlete, building sustainable digital habits, and using slow, focused work to do better work. We cover habit formation, environment design, loneliness in the digital age, and why sleep and presence are performance multipliers. If you’re feeling tethered to screens, this is a practical reset. About the guest: Colin Corby is a digital wellbeing coach and TEDx speaker who founded Technology Wellbeing Ltd. After experiencing stress-related health issues while leading tech programs in the 1990s, he rebuilt his life through endurance sport and now helps professionals and teams create sustainable, human-first tech habits. Key takeaways: Digital wellbeing isn’t about quitting tech; it’s about using technology on purpose and protecting your attention for high-value work. Treat your career like an endurance event: sleep, nutrition, training, coaching, and periodized focus drive long-term performance. Monotasking beats multitasking: switching degrades cognition, raises stress, and lowers output. Habits form through repetition over time (think 66–200 days); start small, stack wins, track momentum. Environment design reduces willpower load: create phone-free zones/times; change spaces to change behavior. Community matters: be fully present with people; in-person connection counters stress and loneliness. For tight schedules and limited resources, guard sleep and cut entertainment scrolling first. In the AI era, double down on human advantages—imagination, real-world sensing, empathy, collaboration. Visualization creates a felt memory that pulls you toward the behavior you want. Self-care is a strength: you can’t support others if you’re depleted.

On this episode of The Mindful Living with host Sana, longevity advocate Michael Dorfman (83) breaks down what actually moves the needle on aging well. We get practical about whole-food, plant-forward eating, everyday movement (not just the gym), community, purpose, breathwork, and eustress—the short bursts of beneficial stress that build resilience. Michael shares how dropping dairy, embracing a whole-foods approach, and protecting his mindset helped him go from “managing” aging to thriving in his 70s and 80s. If you want a grounded path to more energy, clarity, and healthspan—without biohacking noise—this one’s for you. About the Guest: Michael Dorfman is a certified health and nutrition life coach, investigative author, and longevity educator based in Mexico. For nearly five decades he’s practiced and taught practical habits for vibrant aging, drawing from Blue Zones research, plant-based nutrition, breathwork, competitive sport, and stress reduction. He writes weekly on Substack and is author of the forthcoming book The Longevity Wellness Revolution. Key Takeaways: Food first: Emphasize whole, minimally processed plant foods; reduce animal products and ultra-processed foods. Rethink exercise: Build activity into daily life—walk, carry, climb, garden—instead of relying only on the gym. Blue Zones basics: Plant-forward nutrition, natural movement, community, and purpose consistently align with better healthspan. Mindset matters: Treat aging as an opportunity; regularly check in—“How am I feeling?”—and course-correct stress. Use eustress wisely: Short, intentional challenges (e.g., time-restricted eating, breath holds, skill learning) can build resilience. Stress hygiene: Prioritize meditation, breathwork, and calm routines; chronic stress drives inflammation and burnout. Fiber & phytonutrients: Plants supply fiber and protective compounds that support overall wellness. Purpose protects: Having a clear reason to get up—service, creativity, sport—supports mental and physical vitality.

In this episode of The Mindful Living Podcast, host Sana sits down with entrepreneur and Wim Hof instructor Roy Castleman to uncover the hidden cost of hustle. Roy shares raw experiences from investing everything into an adventure business before COVID, burning out, and even facing a breaking point. What saved him was not another growth strategy, but breathwork, cold exposure, and a simple daily routine that rebuilt both health and business clarity. Together, we explore why meditation, stillness, and mindful self-care are not luxuries but survival skills for leaders and entrepreneurs. This conversation is direct, grounded, and designed to help you rethink productivity through presence. About the guest: Roy Castleman is a UK-based entrepreneur running multiple IT and power companies while coaching founders on clarity, performance, and systems. As a certified Wim Hof Method instructor and freediving practitioner, he integrates science-backed breathwork, cold exposure, and meditation practices with practical business coaching to help entrepreneurs lead sustainably. Key takeaways : Burnout rarely arrives suddenly; it creeps in when self-care is neglected and stress compounds. Morning routines (breathwork, meditation, movement) can add efficiency and focus that ripple across the day. Cold exposure—even just a cold shower—resets emotions, sharpens clarity, and strengthens resilience. Attention is energy: dwelling on the past or worrying about the future drains present productivity. AI tools can help reclaim time, but those hours must be reinvested in personal recovery, not just more work. Leading from a regulated nervous system (parasympathetic) enables creativity, empathy, and sharper decision-making. Entrepreneurs must build companies that serve their lives, not consume them. Extreme practices aren’t required—mindful walks, consistent breathing, or short meditations can be equally impactful. Self-care is not indulgence—it’s a strategic advantage for founders juggling growth and pressure. Sustainable success requires clear vision paired with consistent practices that preserve energy and health. This episode contains discussion of suicidal thoughts and mental health struggles.

On this episode of The Mindful Living Podcast, host Sana speaks with Nicole Adey about the real cost of people-pleasing and how unspoken expectations drain our energy. Nicole breaks down how to set simple, firm boundaries without alienating loved ones, how to spot early signs of burnout before it spirals, and why rebuilding self-worth starts with reallocating your daily “energy units” from past regrets and future fears back into the present. Grounded in lived experience—divorce, bereavement, single motherhood, corporate burnout, and a breast cancer diagnosis—Nicole offers a pragmatic framework: awareness, small consistent boundaries, micro-rest practices, and honest communication at home and work. Direct, practical, and immediately usable across busy lives. About the Guest: Nicole Adey is a coach and facilitator who helps women recover from burnout and re-anchor self-worth through boundary-setting, energy mapping, and nervous-system-friendly routines. A former corporate leader and single mother of two, she blends personal resilience with practical tools that fit real schedules. Key Takeaways: Boundaries are not walls; they are clear agreements that protect energy and improve decision-making and relationships. People-pleasing plus chronic overthinking accelerates burnout; awareness is the first interrupt. Early burnout signs: emotional/physical exhaustion, low motivation, trouble concentrating, and disconnection. “Energy units” model: notice how much daily energy leaks to past guilt or future worry; reclaim it to the present. Start micro: one non-negotiable boundary with yourself (e.g., a 10-minute daily walk) builds confidence and momentum. Communicate needs plainly (e.g., “my cup is empty”); simple analogies help kids and partners understand capacity. Pause practices (brief outdoor breaks, deep breathing, journaling, short tech-free windows) reset the system. Self-worth is maintained by living in alignment with personal values—not titles, salaries, or optics. Redefine “having it all”: choose what actually fulfills you, then schedule it. Grief and stress often hide beneath busyness; processing feelings gradually returns energy and clarity.

On The Mindful Living with host Sana, we unpack how to turn vision into action without burning out. Dr. Christiane Schroeter—TEDx speaker, professor, business & wellness coach, bestselling author, and host of Happy Healthy Hustle(top 1% globally)—walks us through her STEP framework: Simplify, Tell others, Examine, Praise progress. We explore Petite Practices® (small, repeatable actions), why boredom can fuel creativity, how to spot busy work vs. meaningful moves, and a realistic cadence for momentum (as little as 15 minutes a day, or 3×5-minute blocks). Practical, direct, and built for entrepreneurs and doers who want sustainable traction across work and life. About the guest: Dr. Christiane Schroeter is a California-based business and wellness coach, TEDx speaker, professor, bestselling author, and host of Happy Healthy Hustle. She helps founders and professionals achieve outsized results via small, strategic actions—blending research, strategy, and well-being. Key takeaways : STEP = Simplify → Tell → Examine → Praise: break big goals into a right-for-you sequence, share them for accountability, review what’s working, then celebrate progress to reinforce momentum. Petite Practices®: small, consistent actions compound; aim for done over perfect to stay in motion. 15-minute rule: dedicate 15 minutes daily (or three 5-minute sprints) to your priority; consistency beats intensity. Boredom is a feature: white space lets the mind wander, sparking creativity and problem-solving. Busy work vs. research: some tasks (e.g., comparing flights) feel tedious but still inform smart decisions—schedule, time-box, and move on. Examine weekly: keep a short to-do (max three items/day), look back, double down on what moved the needle, and cut what didn’t. Prevent burnout: scale goals to energy and season; momentum builds through small, repeatable wins, not heroic bursts. Tell others: sharing goals activates network support and gentle accountability; journaling makes goals present and tangible.

On this The Mindful Living Podcast episode, host Sana sits down with author and athlete DK Kang to unpack mindfulness in motion—how martial arts training and Spartan racing build presence, grit, and self-discipline that translate to real life. From navigating his wife’s breast cancer diagnosis and job loss to finishing a brutal 50K Spartan Ultra, DK shows how breathwork, gratitude, routine, and community turn chaos into calm focus. We cover reframing self-talk, balancing stillness with movement, and the small decisions that get you unstuck. If you’re at rock bottom or simply rebuilding your routine, this is a direct, practical conversation on resilience, mindset, faith, and performance you can apply today across work, fitness, and life. About the guest: DK Kang is the author of Mindset Metamorphosis, a practitioner of traditional martial arts, and a Spartan Ultra finisher. He blends movement, faith, and mindset tools—breathwork, morning routines, and gratitude—to help people transform how they respond to adversity. Key takeaways : Mindfulness is trained under pressure. Sparring and obstacle races mirror life’s “punches”—you learn to respond instead of react. Language matters. “I can’t” becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy; reframing to “how can I?” opens options and momentum. Progress is earned, not instant. Like belts in martial arts, results come from consistent reps, not one breakthrough. Presence > perfection. Showing up (80%) plus steady effort (20%) beats waiting for the “right time.” Gratitude resets the nervous system. Pausing mid-effort to notice nature, breath, or sight shifts stress to perspective. Stillness and motion must coexist. Movement does not replace silence; balance training days with quiet, prayer, or breathwork. Values drive decisions. Clarify what matters, then align routines (journaling, exercise, sleep) to protect capacity. Community compounds resilience. Mentors, accountability partners, and practical support shorten hard seasons. Faith as a stabilizer. Verses, prayer, and ritual can anchor attention and reduce anxiety in uncertainty. Start small at rock bottom. Choose one tiny action (walk, journal prompt, email a mentor) and repeat daily.

In this episode of The Mindful Living Podcast with host Sana, Richard Tierney sheds light on the vital but often overlooked connection between childhood experiences and lifelong mental health. The discussion explores why children’s natural feelings—fear, anger, anxiety, sadness—are not disorders, but instincts to be trusted and understood. Richard shares simple, practical exercises that parents, teachers, and caregivers can use to guide children in handling emotions through fight, flight, freeze, and acceptance responses. The conversation emphasizes nurturing environments, spiritual grounding, and teaching children to see emotions as part of healthy growth rather than labeling them as lifelong illnesses. This episode is essential listening for parents, educators, and anyone concerned with the rising rates of childhood anxiety and depression worldwide. About the Guest: Richard Tierney is the author of How to Live Stress and Anxiety-Free 24 Hours a Day and the founder of Trauma Recovery Anonymous. With decades of work helping children and adults release emotional burdens, Richard has developed straightforward approaches that empower families to reclaim mental and spiritual well-being. His mission is to remind the world that feelings are not flaws but guides toward resilience. Key Takeaways: Children’s mental health challenges often stem from environment and early experiences, not from being “broken.” Fight, flight, freeze, and acceptance are natural responses—not pathologies—and children must be taught how to use them safely. Simple family exercises, like role-playing responses to anxiety, writing letters to God, or using imagination as safe space, help children manage emotions. Parents play a crucial role in affirming children’s worth and teaching that emotions are temporary, not permanent disorders. Teaching children that anxiety, anger, and sadness are natural feelings fosters resilience instead of dependency on external labels or treatments. A nurturing environment with presence, spiritual grounding, and emotional safety can help children grow into confident, balanced adults.

Journalist-turned-novelist John DeDakis joins The Mindful Living Podcast with host Sana to explore how mindful writing can help us face grief without numbing it. Drawing from 45 years in journalism (including 25 at CNN) and six novels where loss is a recurring thread, John explains practical ways to start writing when you “don’t feel like a writer,” why moving toward difficult feelings creates relief, and how journaling builds inner clarity. This conversation is direct, grounded, and actionable—designed for listeners who want a simple, sustainable practice to process loss and find meaning. SEO: mindful writing, grief journaling, healing through writing, resilience, emotional wellbeing, creativity for healing, grief processing, mental health storytelling. About the Guest : John DeDakis is a novelist, writing coach, and former CNN editor with decades in high-stakes journalism. He helps writers transform lived experience—including loss—into clear, compelling stories that serve both writer and reader. Key Takeaways : Writing can be therapeutic even if you’re not trying to “heal”—clarity is a byproduct of consistent practice. Start messy: journal privately for yourself; focus on feelings, not craft or audience. Capture emotions in real time; revisiting entries later reveals growth and forgotten intensity. Grief isn’t only bereavement—loss of health, work, relationships, or innocence also deserves space on the page. Deadline discipline from journalism—brevity, clarity, “write it now”—helps you show up when it’s hard. Move toward the pain: avoidance numbs; honest engagement releases pressure and allows forward motion. Creativity is broader than prose—poetry, music, dance, photography, and art can all be mindful outlets. The “sixth stage of grief” is meaning-making; writing helps make sense of the senseless. Solitude and community are complementary: craft privately, then connect for feedback, accountability, and encouragement. Practical starter: set a 10–15 minute daily timer; write one truth you’re avoiding; end with one sentence of meaning or next step.

On The Mindful Living Podcast, host Sana talks with Vanessa Leone—a movement therapist and exercise scientist—about reframing “exercise” as movement therapy: a practical, personal language for the body. Drawing on her lived experience with ADHD, Hashimoto’s, hypermobility, and supporting a partner with CPTSD, Vanessa explains simple, sustainable ways to build daily movement, recover from flare-ups, and cultivate resilience without burnout. We discuss play, walking to music, five-minute routines, and how small, consistent actions restore freedom, mood, and stress regulation. If you’re juggling work, family, and health, this episode shows how to start now—without perfection or pain. SEO: movement therapy, mindful living, ADHD, Hashimoto’s, hypermobility, CPTSD, resilience, daily routine, mental health, walking, yoga, Pilates, sustainable fitness, Australia, Sydney — Guest: Vanessa Leone. About the guest Vanessa Leone is a movement therapist and exercise scientist with nearly two decades of practice. She helps clients translate movement into joy, agency, and nervous-system balance—especially those navigating conditions like hypermobility, autoimmune issues, and ADHD. Key takeaways: Movement ≠ punishment. Treat it as a language of the body—play, exploration, and presence, not just calorie burning. Start tiny, repeat daily. Use rules/standards/goals: e.g., “I walk every day” (rule), 7,000 steps (standard), 12,000 steps (goal). Five minutes still counts. Make it joyful. Walk to music that matches (or nudges) your pace; joy increases adherence and cardio load naturally. Play scales effort. Simple games (foam rollers + soft ball) delivered laughter, intervals, and community—without obsessing over metrics. Resilience is two-sided. It’s not just “push harder”; it’s also self-compassion, pacing, and honoring signals. Hypermobility needs care. Extra joint range can mean greater injury risk; prioritize stability, gentle progressions, and rehab consistency. Autoimmune & ADHD lenses. After a Hashimoto’s diagnosis and later flare-ups, Vanessa replaced intensity with nervous-system friendly movement and recovery. Movement freedom matters. Training so you can say “yes” to hikes, paddle boarding, stairs, or rearranging furniture—function first. Household motion counts. Cleaning, carrying, and stairs provide meaningful activity bursts when life is full. Community helps. Support networks and accountability make rehab and routines stick.

n this episode of The Mindful Living Podcast, host Sana sits down with Trey Tijerina to explore a thought-provoking question: Can imagination unlock the divine within us? Trey shares his perspective on imagination as a creative force, not just idle fantasy, and how it shapes our reality. The conversation dives into mindfulness, presence, manifestation, probability vs. possibility, and the role of programming in shaping our beliefs. Trey offers practical insights into how shifting from fear and limitation toward openness and imagination can help us experience more freedom, healing, and even miracles in our lives. This episode is an invitation to look inward, reimagine your relationship with God, self, and the present moment, and begin creating from possibility rather than probability. About the Guest Trey Tijerina is an entrepreneur, creator, and spiritual seeker passionate about helping people unlock their highest potential. Through his work, Trey empowers others to break free from limiting beliefs, embrace mindfulness, and use imagination as a tool to transform their reality. Key Takeaways Imagination is more than daydreaming—it is a creative tool that shapes our lived experience. The “external” world reflects our internal state of being; shifting beliefs shifts outcomes. Living in probability (mind-based programming) limits us, while living in possibility opens space for miracles. Manifestation isn’t about forcing—it’s about embodying the feeling of the wish fulfilled. Mindfulness allows us to return to the present, reducing fear of the future and regret about the past. Labels and boxes (e.g., calling someone “the alcoholic uncle”) reinforce limiting patterns for others and ourselves. True freedom comes when we trust life, release resistance, and allow imagination to guide us.
