The Ginni Show

So often, we long for an escape. We find ourselves in a place that we always aspired to be, yet, we feel as if something is missing. If we are lucky, we may find ourselves in a different location and be overwhelmed by a realization or inspiration that might lead to a fundamental change in our mindset or our lives. But regardless of where you go to search for the solution, you will always find it in one location - within yourself. We just need to believe in our capabilities, reflect on our past achievements, take action, and hope that we will have the perfect cheerleaders to support us along our journey.

On this episode of The Ginni Show, I speak with Karen Gamba, Co-Founder and Chief Marketing Officer of ExV Agency. She’s a philanthropist, traveler, Sci-fi fanatic, and overall girl power guru.

Do you need an attitude change?The way we show up in our everyday lives, and the attitude we put on each day, is a key factor in determining whether or not we are truly happy. It’s not quite that simple, though. It takes a number of steps to get to that state, and the first step is realizing that it’s time for an attitude shift.In this episode, I talk with David Neagle.

I know it feels like a long time between Mocha's. Now that Wednesday's aren't returning until July, our catch up time is down to once a week. It sucks but given the fact that I ask you all to invest in yourselves and listen to your inner child, play time and balance is a part of that so I must practice what I preach. At least that means we get Monday's together right?Now, before you freak out when you listen to this podcast and say, "I've heard this voice before." Other than my dulcet tones, my guest for this week, Australia's Queen of Podcasts herself - Monique Bowley, frequents the airwaves, currently on the Mamamia Podcast Network. Her work is award winning and her witty, quick whips and natural flair for conversation is apparent. What I loved about this particular podcast is that I got to see a deeper side of Monique, even when she told me she "Mutes it when the plop happens." What I loved learning about her was that she is engineered from a place of gratitude; which comes doing what she does....and having a pair legs. Much wisdom, laughter and Monday Motivation in this one, my friends. "I go to mass every Sunday. There is no where in life anymore that tells you not to be a dickhead, as an adult. The one hour on Sunday morning, tells me to be a better person."

So, it stresses you out and it grinds you until you get it done. So, David Allen has this whole system of list and things like that that you can use to constantly be on top of what needs to get done 5 People in Inner Circle:Wife/ Business Partner- Everythin.

The day I learnt that Butterflies didn't have the ability to eat me was one of the most liberating days of my life. I was 12 and I watched a Cethosia butterfly fly away. Celebrate the wins, people. No matter how big of small they are.I've heard many spiritual teachers say that in life, humans tend to look at things in two ways; out of love or out of fear. When we opt for the latter, we go down a spiral of anxiety and darkness and it's generally a projection of things that don't exist in the present. We spend all this time and energy worry about things that never really happen. That's just how powerful and crippling fear is. It's design to keep us safe and somewhat restricted. Fear does serve a purpose though. Fear teaches us that boundaries are needed to be put in place until we wish to explore what's beyond. I feared butterflies for most of my childhood, and this episode will tell you exactly why. This is one of those fears that when you are brave enough to face it, you can find that what's beyond that fear is something pretty special, innocent and freeing. Whatever your fears may be, if they cripple you and block you from beauty, I hope this episode brings you joy and learning that there is so much freedom beyond fear!Love @theginnishow xDo you approve The Ginni Show?
