Harnessing Resilience And Managing Your Happiness - with Ema Robin

Wed, 01 Mar 2023 00:00:00 GMT

It's a family affair this time as Clie talks to her niece, Ema! Ema Robin is a 23 year old singer and songwriter originating from the Netherlands. Ema moved to London in 2018 to pursue her dream of becoming a professional recording artist.

In this episode, Ema talks about her amazing musical journey, and how she has harnessed her own resilience in order to push through and become a full time creator.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

The music industry is very difficult to become a part of. The highs can be very high but the lows can hit hard. You can stay positive by managing your expectations.
You can only ever be really positive if you understand the balance between positivity and negativity. Understanding one helps you to handle the other.
The key to being really happy is to identify the triggers that make you snap. If you do that, you can work on those triggers in advance.
It's okay to tap out when you need to. Even escaping into sleep can be an effective way to reboot your mood and kickstart your positivity.

BEST MOMENTS

'As an artist, it's really a process'

'When you feel sad it's usually because of the expectations you have about a situation'

'Recognise your triggers'

'Once you get into heavy emotional states, it can be draining'

Fri, 24 Feb 2023 00:06:00 GMT

It's double the fun this time, as Clie is joined by two guests - Carole and Stephen from Canada - who join your host in order to talk about why each day is something to be thankful for, the unusual places in which you can find adventure, and the positives you can take from any challenge.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

There is always something to be grateful for in life. Look for the things for which you may be thankful, no matter how small. Never take anything for granted.
Adventures can be found in the smallest places - even in the corners of nature. Look for the wonder in any environment and enjoy it.
Reminders are all around us, of the good that can be found in people. Beauty manifests itself in the world, and acts as a milestone - each point is a mark that someone has left upon the world.
There are no such things as mistakes or failures. There are only lessons. We can draw something positive and impactful from any challenge.

BEST MOMENTS

'Every day is a blessing'

'That's the path toward adventure'

'We have a llama to protect us!'

'I have had experiences that I've learned from'

KEY TAKEAWAYS

As a young generation, we need to come together with the older generations, to find solutions that bring happiness and joy to the world around us.
We are always learning and growing. Our age is never a barrier. We can never know everything, so should remain thirsty for knowledge and growth.
Gratitude should be shown for every gift, no matter how small. Even the fact that we are alive today in this beautiful world, is worth acknowledging at all times.

Positive Mental Attitudes Lead To Positive Wellbeing - with Nancy London

Fri, 24 Feb 2023 00:04:00 GMT

Nancy London is a fountain of energy, and one of the most enthusiastic Disney fans in the world. She's also a seasoned traveller and a self-professed lover of the colour purple!

Nancy joins Clie for a spirited conversation about the power of love, how you can turn any place into a centre for happiness by rephrasing and reframing, and how you can positively affect your physical health by attracting good vibes.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

They call Disneyland the happiest place on earth, but in reality you can turn anywhere into the centre of happiness in your life.

You can turn any negative into a positive by rephrasing, reframing, and stopping barriers in their tracks, insisting that positive outcomes are possible.

Negativity doesn't just impact your mood. Focussing upon the bad can actually be detrimental to your physical health.

Whatever we say, we receive. We manifest the things we focus upon. This is why remaining positive is so healthy.

BEST MOMENTS

'I've only been to 79 countries, so I still have a lot to go...'

'They call Disneyland the happiest place on earth'

'I want lots of love for everybody in the entire world'

KEY TAKEAWAYS

We must endeavour to look on the bright side at all times. There's always someone worse off than you. Count your blessings and remain as optimistic as possible.
Life is a process of alternates, especially in business. We enter into arrangements, but if they don't work out, we need to have a strategy to deal with our exit.
Always try to find a way to help if you can. Search for ways in which you can help and enrich others, and you'll be doing your part to make the world a better place.
If you make a decision to do something, you should commit to making it happen. Determination and resilience are the keys to fulfilment

How Cleaning Your Room Can Set You On The Path To Positivity - with Matic

Fri, 24 Feb 2023 00:00:00 GMT

Welcome to an all-new show, where your host, Clie, brings you the best in positivity, hoping to spread some cheer around the world, and make each day a little sweeter.

In this first episode, Clie talks to Matic from Slovenia, an eternal optimist from humble beginnings, who shares the story of his life so far, his formula for happiness in life, and how the concept of cleaning your room can set you on the road to fulfilment.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

When you're part of a working family, especially in agriculture, everyone has to pitch in. When you're an only child, as Matic was, the workload can be even greater, but all the more rewarding.
When you come up against a challenge, take a breath, look at it in a different way, and the solution will present itself.
The concept of "cleaning your room" is the incremental process of starting small when it comes to development. Clean your room and you've made something a little bit better. From this small action, greater ones can grow.
Life is sweeter if you spend it in the comfort of your own skin. Always be yourself, and never pretend to be someone you're not.

BEST MOMENTS

'Matic, I really, REALLY love you!'

'I had to work quite hard, and dig deep, to see the depths of this issue'

'Clean your room'

'I'm just myself - it's really simple'
