From Burnout To Breakthrough: The Power Of Taking A Break. Are you sure you're taking the quality Time Out that you need? I, for one, was convinced that was resting when actually... what happened was: I was spending all my free time thinking about the tasks I needed to do during my Time In.

Unconditional Self Acceptance with Jon Prince - Ep 278

On this week's In Focus session I discuss how the Self can often seem like two separate things: the spiritual side, infinite and connected to everything, and the personal side, which is finite and more connected to our wants and life purposes. Even if these two may seem separated, they're actually one thing appearing as two, and this gives us the freedom to be able to change and redirect our life and our "self".  On this episode I discuss:   The separation of self How to use the unlimited source My experience with depression wasn't fixed 3 questions you should always ask yourself    If you enjoyed this session and think there is someone you feel would benefit from hearing it then please make sure you share it with them :)  Produced by Michele Azzu Music by Hobgoblin  Follow Alex: IG: @iamalexmanzi Tik Tok: @iamalexmanzi Twitter: @iamalexmanzi thedreamersdisease.co.uk

My Story: Becoming Your Best Self - Episode 50

On this week's episode I am joined by the super talented Director, Rohan Blair-Mangat, who is a good friend of mine of over 10 years and someone's whose journey I have had the pleasure of watching grow and grow. I fully appreciated Rohan's time for this chat as he doesn't do a lot of interviews, as his work really does speak for itself! From shooting, videos at football matches, to working with some of the biggest names in music, football and beyond. Rohan has directed projects with the likes of Lionel Messi, Adidas, Wretch 32, 6lack, Bryson Tiller, Nike and even Jay Z himself. There's so much to learn from Rohan and his humble persona, as well as the untold amount of experience and knowledge he's gained over his career. So get your notepad ready for this one!
