Rebecca Harrison: Slow down and take a break
06/29/21 • 52 min
Hey there, my wise friends. Thanks so much for being here for Episode 28 of the podcast, which I'm so happy to say is with my lovely friend, artist and designer, Rebecca Harrison. I love this conversation so much as it's all about the courage it takes to give up a steady job and make the leap into the unknown, which is what Rebecca did at the beginning of 2020.
And sure enough, the first thing that she had to do was trust that it was all going to work out when the pandemic arrived. But for Rebecca, moving away from all the 'shoulds' and expectations of others, has been a path to finding true freedom. We also talked about her creative process and how she finds her motivation and inspiration, which I personally find fascinating. I hope you enjoy listening to her just as much as I did.

Clive Glass: Don’t stress the ‘could haves’ if it should have been, it would have.
My guest today is another very personal one, as this episode airs just two days after Father's Day, I thought it was only fitting to get my own dad on the podcast, and share a bit of wisdom with you that I've had the privilege of being around all my life. I really lucked out when I chose my dad. He's a real gem of a man and a great storyteller. One of the things I love about him the most, is the way he's able to find a funny side to just about anything. As you'll hear, we somehow go from talking about design inspiration to a cautionary tale about what happens when you don't buy pants from Marks and Spencers. We also talk about how he narrowly missed out on becoming a great violinist. And I came to see that seeing the best in people is something that is really baked into my DNA. So Happy Father's Day to all the dads out there and here's mine to share a bit of wit and wisdom with you.

Dennis Harhalakis: You don’t have to believe everything you think
Welcome to Episode 29 of The Collective Wisdom Podcast. This week features a topic that affects us all in some way or another: money.
Joining me is Dennis Harhalakis, a certified money coach, who has so much wisdom to share about the psychology of money, and how understanding our own attitudes and beliefs towards it, is the key to lasting financial independence and success, either on a personal level, or if we're running a business.
It is a subject that's at the centre of our lives, and yet we're never really taught much about it. Instead, we pick up, often unhelpful, beliefs that can lead to anxiety, shame or regret that actually become the money blocks in our life.
As Dennis so wisely says at the end, money doesn't come with instructions, but it does come with a whole set of emotions. I found this conversation fascinating and it definitely caused me to stop and reflect on my own attitudes to money, and how intentional or even conscious they are. Understanding this stuff can really change your mindset around money, and with it your financial reality.
If this conversation has caused you to learn more about money coaching and how it can help you can head over to Dennis's website at;
where you can take the money quiz or book in a free consultation call to discuss any challenges you are facing and whether Dennis can help.
