Stephan is a Recovering Socially Awkward Engineer

Stephen and Donna went to School together in country South Australia in the late ‘70s/early 80s, but never spoke a word to each other at School. After School, they each went their own way, Stephen moving to Adelaide for University and Donna starting a career in Administration. They both got married in their early 20s, had four children each and carried on with their lives.

In 2012, they started conversing via Facebook Messenger and discovered that they had a similar story of a failed marriage. Through conversation, they found that they had the same mindset and thinking about a lot of things. They decided to meet and became good friends. Then in 2015, they got married. At the time of getting married, Stephen and Donna realized that what they were doing in their lives was not going to get them to where they wanted to go, so a change was necessary. They sought quality mentorship and were introduced to a couple who were successful in all areas of life. In fact, they were living the kind of lifestyle that Stephen and Donna knew they wanted. They drove 9 hours to meet this couple and after many conversations, they agreed to take Stephen and Donna under their wings and coach and mentor them. This started the desire to change which has led to the 366 day journey of meeting someone new every day

C20-21 Jay Abbasi on “Mindfulness is Not Just For Yogis”.

Self Discovery Wisdom Podcast

Choose Positive Living with Sara Troy and her guest Jay Abbasi, on air from May 19th

The “tagline” I use often is “Mindfulness is Not Just For Yogis”, and what I mean by that is the practice of mindfulness can be applied to our everyday lives, including how we operate at the workplace.

A simple straightforward way to explain what I do:

I support individuals and organizations struggling with burnout and workplace stress through mindfulness training, which develops resilience and the ability to persevere through a fact-paced and ever-changing work environment ??.

In 2014, my father passed away suddenly from a heart attack. It was devastating. I also had a large amount of credit card debt, my job paid me decently but I didn’t love what I did, and my marriage was falling apart. I started reading everything I could about how to deal with the grief, get out of this rut and turn my life around. What I learned to develop was a skill that changed my life completely.

The skill is self-observation. I learned to look OBJECTIVELY at how I operate. How I think. How I feel. How I behave. I learned to understand WHY I do the things I do, and how to change my behavior. By developing this skill, I learned how to be resilient, perform better, lead better, and work better with others.

The practice I learned to develop self-observation is MINDFULNESS. It has been the one practice that turned my life around. I joined Tesla and in under 4 years worked my way up to running Sales Training at a national level. I started a business. I’m in a happy and healthy relationship. I’m in the best shape of my life.

For years, I’ve developed training programs for billion-dollar companies such as Tesla and SolarCity. One thing I learned is that adults need a bit more than just DRY CONTENT to learn something new. So, I developed an approach to training that combines Education and Entertainment to ensure a world-class learning experience! Adults retain information better when we’re having FUN in the process. My training programs are designed to engage learners in a way that you won’t typically find in online courses.

My goal is to provide an experience! One that provides individuals with the practical application of new ideas that will support growth in the workplace.

I could have chosen to leverage my training skills to develop online courses for many different topics, but I chose mindfulness because I have EXPERIENCED the benefits, and it is my true passion!

My mission is to bring mindfulness to the workplace to support individuals or companies struggling with stress, burnout, uncertainty, or a lack of motivation. I feel as though this is my purpose!

C20-17 Women Leaders during and beyond covid 19

Self Discovery Wisdom Podcast

Choose Positive Living with Sara Troy and her guest Dr. Shelley Negelow, on-air from April 21st

In these unprecedented times, we see the world step up in support of each other. Are we seeing more of a woman’s touch, Mama’s touch, are we seeing more of the feminine touch coming from the men out there?

Are women getting the credit they deserve and can we find the leader within us in these times?

  • Women comprise the majority of frontline healthcare workers globally, meaning that female representation is vital in tackling the coronavirus crisis.
  • 70% of the world’s healthcare staff is made up of women, but only 25% of global leaders are female.
  • Without women in these positions, women’s issues could fail to be addressed throughout the crisis.
  • Women are high on the decision-making lists, are we listening to them?

Germany, New Zealand, Belgium, Finland, Denmark, and Iceland have had one of the more successful responses to the Covid-19 pandemic.

C20-17 Michael Clogs and Sara Troy on the Invisible Lesson of Covid

Self Discovery Wisdom Podcast

Choose Positive Living with Sara Troy and Michael Clogs, on-air from April 21st

Michael says that Life has changed right before our eye because of a silent, tasteless invisible being.

That being is here to teach a lesson about what it means to be connected to life in this Universe. We are not standing above all others in life we are not all-important. What we are is another see of particle and waves just like the virus who is delivering the message. If we all work together and learn to reconnect with our planet our species shall live and thrive in the balance of nature if we not.
Sara says that this is not only a gift of time to reflect, review and renew our lives path, but also an invite to come together as on the human race all experiencing the same crisis. Mama earth is not happy with us and the way we treat the planet and life on it, so consider this a warning, for next time it may be a full-on eviction.  More on Sara Here

Michael Clogs
Growing I was told that my opinion did not matter. Nothing I said would ever impact anyone and that I should learn to take orders from those who were smarter than I was. When I told my school advisors that I wanted to attend university they sat me and my mother done to explain why people like me would never be able to do anything more than a simple trade and university was not the place for me. I did attend university and became a very successful chemical engineer and analyst. But that was not enough I found a calling to help people change their lives and change the world. Most media business owners are after dollars and build shows simply to make money. I build shows that are designed to inspire change in our world. I want everyone to know they have a voice worth listening to and they have a message that can help empower at least one person to live a brilliant life. While, yes our shows at Depiction Media do make us money and attract sponsor listeners my hope and my goal is to touch as many lives and the money helps me find more lives to change.

Our company is found on the idea that everyone has a voice and everyone should be heard. If you are in a state of around speaking out. Please remember this your story could change the life of just one person and what that one person you touched help change the course of humanity to a society filled with Love, Trust and Beauty where every living being is respected.
