Dopamine Detox: How To Stop Overstimulation Ruining Your Life - Hector Hughes
In a world where we’re always on, always attuned to the constant buzz of notifications and glued to the never ending scroll, it’s no wonder that overstimulation and burnout are on the rise. Globally, people have an of average 6 hours 58 minutes of screen time per day (according to the Average Screen Time Stats 2023) and when you look at an entire week that’s over 46hrs, almost two whole days a week, spent on devices - which is pretty mind blowing. But what kind of impact is this time spent on the digital hamster wheel having on our focus, motivation and overall health? How do we block out the noise and focus on what really matters to be happier and healthier people. Today I’m joined by Hector Hughes. Hector is the co-founder of Unplugged who provide digital detoxes at minimalist, off-grid cabins in nature across the UK to help the always-on, switch off. In the episode, we’ll talk about how Hector started his business after overcoming burnout, all things digital detox and how important it is to unplug in our increasingly digital dependent world, what the consequences are if we don’t and a few hacks for developing a healthier relationship with tech. Enjoy!

Why Manifestation Isn’t Just A Trend: How To Manifest - Roxie Nafousi
Have you ever wondered how some people effortlessly attract success, abundance, and happiness into their lives? There’s one school of thought that suggests our beliefs and intentions have the power to shape our reality, so by manifesting positive thoughts we’re able to change our reality for the better. Some call this concept ‘manifestation’. Over the past few years, the word manifestation has got mixed reviews - sometimes seen as a transformative practice that has the power to change people’s lives, and sometimes seen as a bit new-age’y and mystical. Today I’m joined by Roxie Nafousi, who’s going to help demystify the conversation around manifestation and help us understand how we can use the practice to be more intentional about what we want in our future to make deliberate positive change in our lives. Roxie is a self-development coach, inspirational speaker, manifesting expert and 2 x Sunday Times Bestselling author. Her debut book MANIFEST: 7 Steps to Living Your Best Life has become a global success since it entered the market in January 2022, and is widely regarded as the must-have guide to manifestation. In the conversation we cover a lot of questions: what are the misconceptions around manifestation? Is there a “right way” and a “wrong way” to manifest? How much does manifesting differ from traditional goal setting? How much is manifestation about achieving something external vs developing internally? What’s the science? And what are some practical tips to start manifesting?
