  • How to Rise Above Ageism and Thrive
    Dec 20 2024

    Ageism isn't just about stereotypes and prejudices directed at others; it's also about the subtle ways we internalize these messages and limit ourselves. Today, we’ll discuss:


    -How ageism impacts our choices, health, and self-perception.

    -What happens when we internalize ageist beliefs—and how to break free?

    -Practical strategies to challenge ageism in ourselves, others, and society.


    The Hidden Toll of Ageism on Us - How do stereotypes and microaggressions shape the way we live, work, and care for ourselves? We'll explore the systemic and personal impacts of ageism, from exclusion and stress to the dismissive attitudes we face in healthcare.


    Shattering Self-Limiting Beliefs — We’ll discuss how internalized ageism keeps us from living our fullest lives. More importantly, we’ll share steps to reclaim your vitality and confidence, starting with how you speak to and treat yourself.


    Redefining How We See Others - Are you unintentionally perpetuating the same biases you’ve experienced? We’ll uncover how to reframe assumptions about older adults, celebrate their contributions, and create a culture of growth, mentorship, and inclusion for every stage of life.


    Let’s rewrite the narrative around aging—together. This is more than a conversation; it’s a movement to recognize the power, potential, and wisdom of all ages.


    Grab a cup of tea, settle in, and join us as we challenge the status quo, embrace new perspectives, and break through the age barrier.

  • Living the Bhagavad Gita: Timeless Lessons for Today’s Challenges
    Nov 20 2024

    In today’s episode, we delve into one of the most profound spiritual texts ever written—the Bhagavad Gita.


    Though the Gita recounts a battle on the field of Kurukshetra, its lessons transcend time and space. They metaphorically represent the battles we face within ourselves—our doubts, fears, and the complexities of living a purposeful life.


    This ancient scripture offers insights into dharma—our higher duty—and how to align with truth, love, and higher consciousness, even in the face of challenges, through a divine dialogue between Krishna and Arjuna.


    How is the Bhagavad Gita still relevant in our rapidly changing world? And how can its teachings guide us to overcome internal struggles, act compassionately, and live with clarity and intention? Let’s explore these eternal truths and uncover practical ways to integrate them into our daily lives.


    So, take a deep breath, center yourself, and join us on this journey into the heart of the Gita. Understanding your dharma could be the key to surviving life’s battles and thriving in the light of your true self.
