From Muted to Magic

How to Strip Away Society's Lies and Reconnect with Your Inner Spark

Take away: Trust that that magic you seek is within you

Money Learnings: Shirin came to the States from Iran when she was nine. She  grew up in a fairly affluent family.

Bio: Shirin Etessam is an entrepreneur, seasoned media executive, and transformational speaker. She has produced films, original television series and specials, created several companies, and led campaigns for some of the world’s most recognized companies (ABC, CBS, Discovery, BBC, Facebook, Apple, Intel, Virgin, and many more). A proud member of the LGBTQIA+ community, Shirin founded OML TV, a popular platform dedicated to streaming and curating quality, queer female, video content and OML Originals, a female led production company telling diverse female stories through a vast spectrum of film and television genres. Today, Shirin guides seekers in her six-week program, Free to Be, to disconnect their human “being” from their human “doing” to find true and lasting fulfillment.  She lives in Marin County, California, with her wife and two children.

Highlights from this episode: 

• Shirin felt unfulfilled despite having a nice home, car, career, community status etc. She realized something was missing internally.
   

  As children, we naturally connect with our inner essence, but societal conditioning causes us to disconnect from it and seek validation externally. We need to rediscover our inner truth.

   
  Our minds are flooded with mostly negative, repetitive thoughts. We need to limit information overload and "purge" regularly to clear our minds.
   
  Reconnecting with our body through breathwork can profoundly impact our mental/emotional state. Our breath has great power if we harness it.
   
  Play is critical at any age for our minds, hearts and souls, yet we lose touch with playfulness as adults. We each have unique play personalities and ways of accessing play.
   
  Living from our inner truth/essence, not external validation, is key to an abundant life. The "magic" we seek is within us, not external.
   
  The book provides a 6-week roadmap to strip away conditioning, reconnect with our inner self, and live more fully and authentically.

Epochal Change in the Financial Markets

Takeaway: We are facing a new economic reality and the rules of the past no longer apply. Understanding the new rules and having a plan to navigate them will help you to continue to build your wealth.

Bio:  Todd Tresidder graduated from the University of California at Davis with a B.A. in economics and a passion for creating successful businesses. A serial entrepreneur since childhood, Todd went on to build his own wealth as a hedge fund investment manager before "retiring" at 35 to teach others. Today, he provides advanced investment and retirement planning education at FinancialMentor.Com showing you what works, what doesn’t, and why based on a depth of proven experience.

Highlights from this episode: 

• We are entering a new "economic epoch" characterized by high inflation after a long period of low inflation. Interest rates are also now in an upward trend after declining for decades.
• The government response to COVID with massive fiscal stimulus was a key trigger that helped kick off these changes. This led to inflation coming back in a structural way.
• In this new environment, conventional investing strategies like passive index funds are likely to struggle and have poor real returns for 10-15 years. Tactical asset allocation is better suited for this period.
• Financial repression by the government is likely, meaning inflation will outpace asset returns but it will be gradual enough that most people don't fully realize it.
• Various risks like duration risk and liquidity risk are emerging that can turn into solvency crises. More volatility and turning points are expected as the economy goes through this transitionary period over the next decade plus.
• Understanding these dynamics is key so individuals can adapt their investment strategy and spending to preserve wealth through this economic shift. Being prepared ahead of time is critical.

Becoming Flawesome

Takeaway: Recognizing and thriving in our imperfections is key to personal growth

Money Learnings: Kristina was born and grew up in the Soviet Union and what she knew about money then was that they were hoping to build communism where there wouldn't be any money. But along the way, she learned to be flexible enough because she had to transform from one system to a completely different system.

Bio: Kristina Mand-Lakhiani is an international speaker, entrepreneur, artist, philanthropist, and mother of 2 kids. As a co-founder of  Mindvalley, a leading publisher in the personal growth industry, Kristina dedicated the last 20 years of her career from teachers like Michael Beckwith, Bob Proctor, Lisa Nichols, and many more. 

She started her career in a government office in her native Estonia and, by her mid-20s, achieved a level of success mostly known to male politicians at the end of their careers. It was shortly after that Kristina and her husband Vishen founded Mindvalley. From a small meditation business operating out of the couple’s apartment in New York, the company quickly grew into a global educational organization offering top training for peak human performance to hundreds of thousands of students all around the world. 

Kristina believes life is too important to be taken seriously and makes sure to bring fun into every one of her roles: as a teacher, mother, entrepreneur, philanthropist, and world traveller. Kristina helps her students to virtually hack happiness by taking them through her unique framework - “Hacking happiness” - a unique framework of balancing your life, taking in every moment, and paying close attention to the small daily choices.  

Kristina is also the author of three transformational quests - "7 Days To Happiness", "Live By Your Own Rules.” and "The Art of Being Flawesome". Kristina talks about personal transformation, authenticity, understanding and accepting oneself, and a path to happiness.

In June 2023, with the help of Hay House Publishing, Kristina releases her very first book - "Becoming Flawesome". In her book, Kristina shares her own journey from being on top of a personal growth empire like Mindvalley to stepping aside, conscious uncoupling from her husband, and walking her path towards being more honest with herself. 

Highlights from this episode: 

• Kristina talked about growing up in a Soviet Union
• What is it that MindValley does?
• The darker controversial side to personal growth
• Kristina was influenced to write a book due to her environment and her message maturing
• Kristina discusses the fear of imperfection and the importance of being loyal to it
• The journey of transformation is a path to readiness to make a decision
• Vulnerability - too much of a good thing can become bad
