And away we go! Buckle in for the first chapter in the Budokon Guru Killer Experience. We're still in London but we're getting all the way over to Whitefish, Montana via Portland, Oregon. We meander through a tough Livestream I did with Yasmin Ibrahim (this Shig doesn't cry...she did this time though!) which was the catalyst for this entire thing even getting to where it did. Mentioning the ever-inspiring Francis Bourgeois and his love for trains (Instagram.com/francis_bourgeois43) and finally getting my butt to the Budokon Big Sky Ranch. Finally, I expand upon what the Guru Killer 500-hour Teacher Training certification is, so you know just what I've signed up for the next month!Check for yourself: http://budokon.com/tt-description-bdk-500hr
And Here. We. Go. Finally, we're diving into my Budokon Montana Guru Killer Experience. Condensing 30-days of consecutive opportunities to "practice living as the best version of myself" amidst a 20-plus strong tribe on The Shayne's ranch in Whitefish, Montana USA. Join me as I recall various experiences, discuss ideas and slice in some live audio from the experience over the next few episodes. Episode 1 is the prologue - WTF is Budokon, and how did I even reach a point of being so into it?! Jump on in, sun babies.

Oh Hello 2022...Life as per usual has been kicking my butt. But(t) I've been kicking it back! Get your ears hooked into this completely raw, somewhat unedited but entirely entertaining life update in all things Shiggi. It includes tasty morsels like levelling up in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, living the good life in Montana and what's next for this glorious little podcast.
Happiness, it's the goal. Or so we're lead to believe. It's easy to live a life where you do your work, have a bit of fun and then you die (maybe you have a kid or two on the way) but what happens when you ask yourself what happiness means to you? When you've reached that "goal" what happens when you ask, "Now what?" - this is my story of exactly that.
It's been 2 years since my mother's suicide and things are hitting kinda different this time. Is a whole year of lockdown partially to blame? Probably. Is Icarus doing his best to get some airtime? Absolutely.
The gremlins well and truly got stuck in with this one! Still - from the live stream (every Tuesday on my Facbook page/profile and YouTube channel at 10am UK time) we meander through the world of experiencing and living through "the suck". It's another brief flurry of martial arts hijinx then we settle into the March Metamorphosis challenge I got stuck into from the folks at Budokon. More about what they do is here: https://www.budokon.com
Episode 34! This episode was inspired by a conversation with a new client. We love labels, it helps us interact with the world around us. But are we reaching a point now where they may well start doing more harm than good? Let's see what my squirrel brain has to offer...
When Knowledge equals Death. A bit drastic? Yes. But I learned about PodFade recently and expanded those thoughts to many other times in my life where being overwhelmed in one fashion or another meant stopping that activity. Are your hobbies turning into jobs and dying too? There are some ways to manage this, in this episode.
It's not an April Fool's! Another episode is here for your listening pleasure. Weaving through the dicey terrain of Victimhood. Is it an either/or situation? Is it a both/and situation? How on earth do we navigate such nuance? Why did I make that comment about Robots on Mars. Help me.
Like a wounded donkey, the show will go on! This episode has been sitting on my hard drive waiting to see the light of day for about 3 weeks. And today (a random Friday) it finally lives. Lockdown 3 in the UK is ravaging on. Whilst work is great, my static state isn't. So episode 31 is a lyrical lamentation over mental wellness. I'm still experimenting with intros and outros - I think I'm getting there.You can find me on the usual socials:Twitter: https://www.twitter.com/elshigInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/elshigFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/shiggimusor ping me a hello email at: hishiggi [at] shiggi.co.uk
Episode 30 brought to you by mostly going through the motions of processing my father's recent passing which brought up a lot of curious thoughts around my being adopted by him and what that actually now means. It's a touch more solemn than usual, but them's the breaks.

Good morrow! Fair listeners...it's been a while. A few months in fact, since the last episode. Life in the land of Shiggi got tough and I decided I needed to take some time away from basically everything and look after myself for a bit. That all worked out great as you discover in this super short 15min episode. The biggest takeaway is a short summary of a January challenge I did and had people do a few years ago that had you follow 3 basic mantras for a whole month:1. Speak no bullsh*t2. Eat no bullsh*t3. Move your body (just a little bit)Super simple, but a far easier and encouraging way to get yourself through the year than most. Get stuck in - let me know what you thought.

Once again, I thought I didn't have much to say - and once again the day before I found I was thinking about a multitude of things. This was helped by taking over Ex TeamGB climbing member Louis Parkinson's Instagram page for a day. I shared 4 long posts covering thoughts about rock climbing (whilst Black) which you can find as a collected article here: Contemplating Climbing whilst BlackThe second part, I wax lyrical about the spectrum of full-time work versus being self-employed and how it's ok to flip from one to another and back again if you want.If you want to see a bit of my podcast live or just reach out and have a natter, come say hi on Facebook: www.facebook.com/ShiggimusYou can find this podcast elsewhere:Getting Shiggi With...Podcast Available at:1.

I think I just about had nothing to say this morning, but dragging my butt to online Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu class spurred this episode's content into existence! So, settle in and let's discuss why Mel Robbins' 5, 4, 3, 2, 1 method is absolute gold. How the importance of the previous "100 Sessions" comes into the spotlight in the depths of a pandemic. And experience how one's train of thought can completely crap out, if you haven't fed yourself properly. The two podcasts I guested on recently are from Dennis Ball on his YouTube Channel (there are 3 parts!) and The Liminal PodcastIf you want to see a bit of my podcast live or just reach out and have a natter, come say hi on Facebook: www.facebook.com/ShiggimusYou can find this podcast elsewhere:Getting Shiggi With...Podcast Available at:1.

It's a Wednesday! And my brain...poor thing, needs a gym or something! Anyway, it's been a curious old week including conversations with old school friends which ended up in a self-schooling around Anti-Racism and really looking at what you do to be happy...not having happiness, genuinely BEING happy...Mine definitely includes a bit of Jamiroquai
Happy Solstice! Once again, this episode came up out of the blue, orange, yellow, red, green, purple...well, it's certainly rainbow-powered. Carrying on in the fashion of wanting to at least help one person understand a little bit more about themselves or some aspect of the world (and maybe feel a little bit less crazy) - this episode surfs the surface of my journey into more "New Age" experiences. Kambo and Iboga are probably not part of your everyday conversations, but they were certainly key ceremonies I took part in and helped me understand myself a little bit more...If you want to see a bit of my podcast live or just reach out and have a natter, come say hi on Facebook: www.facebook.com/ShiggimusYou can find this podcast elsewhere:Getting Shiggi With...Podcast Available at:1.

Hark, another 2 weeks have gone by. And you know what? That's OK. I took a week off of social media (sorta) and it lay the way to many insights, ideas and planned action going forwards. "Implicit bias" was the phrase of the week and it spurred on some fun moments to recall from my university days and issues I had with my mother. Whilst we can't fully delete our internal bias - it helps to put a mirror up to it sometimes. So join me! In this little adventure down today's rabbit hole.

I didn't want to record today's podcast....but in a lighter er, light...who knows what's going to rock up in the next 7 or so days? The killing of yet another black man in the US by way of a brutal blood choke under a crooked police officer's knee has sparked global outrage, in the midst of a pandemic. To be quiet now would be foolish, so I share some thoughts and ideas. A few parts of this episode I'd have redone but they're done on the spot and from the hip.

Has it been 2 weeks? Really? I guess the subject of time is fitting. Come jump into a quick episode that gives you a snap of what's going on in my head, why it's been two weeks and a timely email from the past sent to the future via the wonderful world of www.futureme.org  If you want to see a bit of my podcast live or just reach out and have a natter, come say hi on Facebook: www.facebook.com/ShiggimusYou can find this podcast elsewhere:Getting Shiggi With...Podcast Available at:1.

Well, well, well. Would you look at that? It's a Wednesday AND happens to fall on the 1 year anniversary of my mother killing herself. So I'm shooting from the hip and just reviewing what I went through, feelings and thoughts as time went on and maybe even how I'm trying to accept my new reality and start walking forwards in my own wake. It's a chunky one coming in at just over an hour, which was unintentional. I could have recorded it, but I'd be doing anyone who needs it a disservice
