00:15:14 - Reprogramming Self-Limiting BeliefsReprogramming self-limiting beliefs involves confronting internal doubts and fears to unlock one's true potential. This process includes overcoming obstacles like negative self-perceptions and resistance from those closest to us.

Colby Sharma LL.B. is a leading expert focused on helping organizations unlock greater resiliency in their teams to produce great work and master deep change.
He is a law graduate and author, whose father Robin Sharma is one of the world’s best-selling authors and motivational speakers (“The 5 AM Club,“ “The Monk Who Sold His Ferrari”).
Colby Sharma is the bestselling author of The Curveball. The book serves as a metaphor for the unexpected challenges, like COVID-19, that life throws at us. It narrates the remarkable journey of an individual facing difficulties, who, through timeless wisdom and daily strategies, achieved a significant life transformation. Colby has taken a page from his dad by offering the reader valuable time-tested, tried and true life hacks that are needed now more than ever. It’s a book for those who want to turn fear into fuel, adversity into opportunity and hardship into hope.
Colby’s clients include leading financial institutions such as The Bank of Nova Scotia and Manulife Financial.
Colby Sharma is known for his work in helping organizations foster resilience within their teams. His perspective on resilience and overcoming adversity is deeply informed by his personal experiences and the challenges he has faced.
Drawing inspiration from his father, motivational speaker Robin Sharma, Colby advocates for transforming fear into motivation, adversity into opportunity, and hardship into hope. He emphasizes the importance of detaching oneself from failure, ensuring setbacks don't define one's identity, and embracing inner reflection and adaptability as crucial strategies to overcome adversity.
Colby believes that while societal influences and surroundings can shape us, ultimately, individuals hold the power to choose how they respond to trauma and challenges. His approach to resilience involves acknowledging past hardships, learning from them, and actively striving for personal growth and transformation.
Outline:
00:02:22 - Colby Sharma's Inspirational SpeakingColby Sharma discusses how his speaking on resilience can benefit organizations to master change and produce great work. He helps teams unlock greater resilience to navigate challenges like COVID-19 and achieve significant life transformations by turning adversity into opportunity and hardship into hope. His speaking engagements offer valuable strategies to help individuals and organizations bounce back from stress, respond to loss, and thrive in the face of change, ultimately leading to post-traumatic growth and a healthier, more hopeful community.
00:08:51 - Support Systems and Family InfluenceColby Sharma emphasizes the importance of family, friends, and support systems in personal growth and resilience. He is grateful for the role his parents and friends have played in instilling confidence, providing emotional support, and fostering joy in his life. Surrounding oneself with supportive individuals who understand and appreciate individual strengths can help navigate challenges, embrace resilience, and thrive in one's unique journey.
00:14:31 - Resilience and Overcoming AdversityResilience is the ability to bounce back from challenges, explored in the podcast through discussions on overcoming adversity and finding hope in difficult situations. Colby Sharma emphasizes responding to stressors by reframing them as opportunities for growth, highlighting the significance of resilience in navigating the uncertainties of the post-pandemic world. Makini Smith shares her personal journey of resilience, showcasing how stillness and intentional responses can lead to personal and professional growth even amidst challenging circumstances.
00:18:06 - Perspective and Resilience ToolsColby Sharma discusses the importance of responding rather than reacting to challenges and suggests using the PPE acronym - Permanence, Perspective, and Experience - to cultivate resilience. By detaching from failure, embracing adversity, and understanding that tough situations are temporary, individuals can develop a resilient mindset and navigate through difficult times with grace and strength. Sharma also highlights the significance of surrounding oneself with a supportive community to aid in overcoming adversity and fostering personal growth.
00:26:09 - Detaching from Failure and Embracing AdversityDetaching from failure, embracing adversity, and knowing that tough times will pass are essential beliefs that help individuals navigate challenges and setbacks. By detaching from failure, individuals can prevent it from defining them and instead focus on bouncing back from stress and loss. Embracing adversity allows for post traumatic growth and the opportunity to repurpose energies in different ways, leading to personal and professional development. Understanding that tough times will pass enables individuals to navigate through hardships with resilience and agency, ultimately shaping their identity and response to adversity.
00:38:52 - Personal ConsistencyColby Sharma emphasizes the significance of personal consistency by discussing how he shows up for himself every day, regardless of the circumstances, by trying new things and staying active in different exercise routines. Despite challenges like returning to football after a long break and stepping out of his comfort zone, Sharma's commitment to consistency in exercise and self-improvement is clear. His dedication to personal growth and resilience sets a strong example of the benefits of maintaining consistency in daily life.

In this poignant and empowering episode, Makini Smith narrates her personal journey of courage and recovery after grappling with life-altering experiences like divorce, bereavement, abusive relationships, and health complications. A testament to her resilience, this episode underscores the significance of embracing oneself amidst adversity, finding strength in solitude, and harnessing the power of self-care.
Diving deep into her past, Smith recounts her brush with a toxic relationship and its destabilizing impact. Yet, her narrative center's her resolve to leverage her experiences as a beacon, steering others towards mental wellbeing, especially in harnessing adversity and managing emotional triggers.
As the episode develops, Smith delves into her struggle with resentment, originating from a lack of support during her tribulations and her eventual triumph over it. This episode is a compelling weave of hope, resilience, healing, and connection, fiercely tethered to Smith’s personal battles, triumphs, and insights.
Forgiveness: Decoding Resentment and Triggered Mindset
In this thought-provoking episode, we delve into the concepts of resentment and forgiveness. Taking inspiration from the adage that resentment is self-inflicting, we analyze why this is true. The focus also broadens to understanding our primal responses to trauma, emotional triggers and the significance of compassion.
Under expert counsel, we explore the various layers of forgiveness and strategies to navigate them. From embracing a wider perspective to self-compassion and acceptance, we discuss techniques to keep intense emotions in check. Unearthing the roots of resentment, we understand why forgiveness serves as a powerful antidote.
From fostering healthy relationships to nurturing peace of mind and stability, the conversation encompasses various coping mechanisms like self-care, grounding exercises, and therapeutic aid. In essence, we emphasize the transformative potential that forgiveness holds – for both, the one who forgives and the one who is forgiven.
If you're battling resentment, trauma responses or grappling with forgiveness, this episode could be your guiding light. Step into the realm of mental health, as we unlock the mental marathon of forgiving oneself and others. Drop the baggage of grudges and embrace the strength of forgiveness.

In this episode, Felicia shares how she properly cares for herself and others and how you can do the same.
Felicia Temple is a musical artist and registered nurse. She is a soul-rooted contemporary R&B artist, singer/songwriter, pianist, and producer specializing in mature romantic ballads.
Felicia comes from a musical family. She’s the daughter of Diamond Temple, who has been touring with the legendary hip-hop band the Sugarhill Gang (“Rapper’s Delight”) as a vocalist and keyboardist for decades.
Felicia competed on The Voice during season 12 in 2017. Her blind audition cover of "All I Could Do Was Cry" won over coach Alicia Keys.
In June 2017, Temple self-released The Balancing Act: a six-track EP that was written and recorded while she was undergoing treatment for carcinoid cancer and working as a registered nurse.
Although it wasn't until February 2019 that Temple followed up with Bedroom Chronicles, another EP, the singer continued work as a headlining performer and backing vocalist, most notably for Deborah Cox.
In March 2020, Temple was performing across Europe when the pandemic forced her to return to the USA, and she immediately re-entered the nursing field to work in the intensive care unit.
She’s since returned to music and debuted top of the iTunes R&B charts.
