When the Covid-19 pandemic caused the world to shut down, the lenses through which he viewed life changed.

He says “Life does not come with a manual; however, if you master your mindset, behaviours, and habits so you can navigate life better and achieve personal success and teach children this from a very early age can affect their health, happiness, and wellbeing as well
Born and raised in Nigeria, he lives in New York City now, where he enjoys food photography, hiking, and conquering a goal of traveling to all 50 states.

E57 - Graciela Ramon - Part 2 - My journey to help my autistic child

Part 2 of my interview with Graciela Ramon  - a mother of 3 children one of whom was diagnosed with severe autism some 36 years ago.
From the age of 1 her eldest was different from other child and she tirelessly searched to find out what was wrong and after 4 years was told he was autistic.
During this time, she left her addicted husband and found herself alone with little to no support. Feeling rage, loneliness, exhausted, overwhelmed, confused, disconnected and stress she had to supporting her children emotionally and financially.
She worked 15 hours days and nights until one day, after being sexual harassed by my boss, she decided that she couldn’t continue living the life she was living and sought help……

E55 - Ruthie Renae - Helping Parents Through Self Hypnosis

This week’s guest is a certified clinical hypnotherapist.
She discovered that 100% of my 1:1 client’s have found the seed of their adult issues in childhood trauma, but mostly simple misconceptions they made as children.
So, she thought if this is the case why not learn how to help children see their thoughts clearly, ask the right questions and take advantage of this early stage of development to instil positive suggestions that will set them up for success in the future.
It all starts by learning about yourself and doing the healing work on your own.
(You know, the whole 'put your oxygen mask on first and then help your child' analogy.)
