Eternal Paradigm - The Human Experience

On the topic of travel, as we are all staying put and unable to get around as we once usually would have, in this episode I am joined by the Potts family from Leeds.

I thought it would be nice explore the Potts family’s travel bug, where it comes from and learn about their time living in Perth, Australia and what they did while there.
Adventures are fun at the best of times and I love the sound of a good old family adventure!

What is absolutely clear currently is that we, well not all of us, but most of us don’t have the quick and easy pleasure of travelling like we used to.

Even though it’s not ideal as we’re so used to living in a world where everything is so close by I do feel and hope that there are significant benefits to staying put as it reduces aviation pollution levels and lets the earth have a breather.

So while we do our bit to observe, or not to observe lockdown, the one thing we can definitely do is to think back, reminisce and remind ourselves of all the memories we’ve made while travelling.

In this conversation I ask the Potts family many questions and now on reflection I know there were so many things I’d like to ask! We talk about living abroad, itchy feet and travelling, being sporty and fit, the ups and downs of moving and living abroad and what they all learned about themselves and each other. What also started being uncovered is a bit of a love story.

Now, I am a sucker for a good love story!

It’s a story of connection between two people which transcends culture, background and race. But the lived reality shines a light on the darker side of the lack of acceptance.

It becomes apparent when hearing my guests, that not everyone really sees the value of each of us as humans. The limitations of our belief systems means that there are still many hangups about cross cultural relationships and even though now things might be changing there is still headway to be made.

I am sure you will enjoy hearing the Potts family. Remember to leave your feedback, reviews and suggestions on social media posts and on podcast platforms including Apple Podcasts.

"We have a responsibility to find ourselves. Only you can explore who you are and what fulfils you." - Simon R

In this episode of Eternal Paradigm, I am joined by Simon Rogers who has dedicated his energies to understanding the human body and mind. He has turned his fascination into a successful wellness coaching and osteopathic treatment practice that is committed to helping people feel well and live better.
Since releasing episode 1 where I share a snap shot of my mental health journey, I have been contacted by so many people who really connect with the experiences and emotions that I describe. As a result of this, I wanted to share some steps that I have taken in my journey and Simon has been a significant part of that process.
This episode reflects slightly on my journey and touches on some of the tools that Simon uses with his clients. There are changes that we can all make when we decide to move into the unknown, Simon also highlights how the healthcare system is not designed to help us to experience a holistic approach in connecting with ourselves and solving physical problems.
Ultimately this episode explores how the approach that Simon works on with his clients is just one option that can change the way we live as individuals and as a society.
Cheekily this episode is also a chance for me to ask Simon some questions that I wouldn't usually ask him.

What part of yourself have you or society convinced you that you need to cut out, get rid of, eliminate or suppress in order for you to move on to create happiness and be the best you? - Benson F

I had the opportunity to have a conversation with a transformation life coach who combines coaching, phycology and religious learning to help his clients. The wisdom that is shared by Coach Benson Fox is incredibly interesting and there's so much to learn too.
The question he is asking you is definitely going to get you thinking.
This conversation is an exploration, where I get to ask Benson questions about himself, his learning and his personal journey. We talk a little about the religious perspective on happiness that he has looked at closely. You will hear many different things come up and I know that a lot of it will be helpful to you in your journey to find you.
Benson said, "You can't delete or get rid of any part of you, even if you wanted to and it wouldn't work well for you because you'd be missing a key advisor who is advocating on a policy of what makes you, you."
