Effective communication isn’t just about what you say—it’s how you say it.

Expressing your emotions is central to maintaining sound mental health. In workplace environments, it's not deemed professional to simply let off steam.

But you shouldn't bottle your emotions up either.

Communicating your feelings clearly builds better relationships. Bottling them up breeds resentment and frustration.

Start small, speak honestly.

Here are 5 respectful and constructive ways to express your feelings in the workplace:

Use “I” Statements – Frame your perspective: “I FELT overlooked in the meeting this morning and it has left me feeling…”

Be Specific – Label the emotion clearly: frustrated, concerned, motivated, etc.

Stay Solution-Focused – Keep the conversation forward-thinking, not personal. Focus on the current situation, not past grievances.

Mind Your Tone – Stay calm even when emotions are high. Try to be assertive, not aggressive. Breathe before you speak and stay centred.

Invite Dialogue – Encourage open, two-way communication by making space for the opinions or reasons of others: “I’d like to hear your thoughts so we can reach a mutual agreement.”

Decision-making is central to life. The quality of your decisions directly impacts how you experience reality.

So ask yourself this: Am I any good at making decisions?

Some decisions you have to make a difficult. Sometimes you make choices you know are wrong but you go ahead and do it anyway, even though you might regret it later.

If you want to become the best version of yourself and create the life you want to experience, learn how to make good decisions.

In this week's meet-up, we discuss the key components of good decision-making that help you make smarter, faster, and more confident choices.

For the last 10 years, I’ve been studying depth psychology and have researched neurobiology, quantum physics and esoteric symbolism. This cocktail of disciplines has helped me to understand human nature, improve my relationships and give meaning to life.

If you're not inspired by mainstream culture and want to explore questions that truly matter to you, take a deep dive below the surface and join me this Thursday, 8th May @7 pm GMT.

Like the post and I will send you the zoom link.

Hands up if you struggle to adapt to new lifestyle changes you know you need to make but are too stuck in your old habits and routines.

Breaking old habits is haaaard. Because old habits are memories stored in your body. You are programmed to be this way because of the behaviours you have learned in the past.

So we have to unlearn behaviours and adopt new behaviours.

Here's how.

Changing habits that enable you to pull away from old patterns is easier if you take small steps. The key, however, is to stay consistent so that small steps enable you to cover the distance.

You will still have to push beyond the boundaries of your comfort bubble every time you step up to a challenge no matter how easy you try and make it for yourself.

Implementation strategies make this easier by helping to prime your brain to take action automatically.

Repetition makes new habits stick.

When you consistently repeat the same actions, the electrical pulse that communicates that message between synapses becomes stronger and eventually becomes automatic.

Examples of strategies to implement new habits

Habit Stacking: Link new behaviours to existing behaviours

Attach purpose & meaning: When the task you are doing has a recognisable and meaningful purpose, you’re more inclined to do it

Measure it: Use group check-ins, accountability partners, progress trackers or personal best to give you the motivation and encouragement to persist

Visual Cues and Environmental Design: Your surroundings trigger behaviour more than motivation does. Visual cues help to remind you of the thing you need to do.

If you know you should be going to the gym, leave your gym attire where you will see it when you need to put it on.

If you have a habit of comfort eating with biscuits, put a healthier snack in the biscuit jar instead of biscuits.

If you find journaling helps to organise your thoughts and reflect on the day, leave your journal and pen on your pillow so you remember to complete it when you go to bed

My early childhood memories taught me how to feel afraid, anxious, ashamed and humiliated.

Early childhood experiences are the foundation of learned behaviours in adulthood.

Learned behaviours shape your life and how you experience reality.

For most of my adult life, I felt misunderstood, unloved and unworthy. Until I realised these portraits of myself were learned behaviours projected onto me by adults who had not learned how to be understanding, loving, and supportive.

Feelings of being abandoned, rejected, unloved and unworthy were stored as memory in my central nervous system.

The memories I collected in childhood became thoughts and feelings in adulthood.

I thought I was unintelligent. Until I educated myself.

I thought nobody liked me. Until I learned to accept myself.

I thought I was weird because I don’t like TV or pop music like most people. Until I realised mainstream content simply doesn’t stimulate me. I need to be inspired.

I thought everyone was judging me. Until I learned it’s not important what others think. It’s only important what I do and I have control over what I do. I don’t have control over how people think.

It’s important to know these things about yourself. Your SELF.

It’s important to correct the false beliefs and learned behaviours that become maladaptive motivations in your adult years.

I didn’t realise anything about myself until I’d been carrying anxiety and depression for almost 30 years. In that time, I was addicted to ma*****na, drank too much, sabotaged relationships, lived an unhealthy lifestyle, and barely ventured beyond my comfort zone.

How many opportunities did I waste because of the behaviours I learned in childhood?

It’s only when we come to moments of self-awareness that we allow ourselves the opportunity to grow, succeed and thrive.

If we don’t look at our wounds, we struggle to find ways to survive.

As a child, I was often disciplined...

But I was never taught how to be disciplined.

I also remember that a lot of the time I was being disciplined, I didn’t understand why. I didn’t know what I had done wrong. I was hardly a boisterous child or a trouble-causer.

It seemed to me that I was being disciplined for being me.

For being different.

I felt misunderstood, unheard, unloved and unworthy.

As an adult, these learned behaviours became a fear of being abandoned and rejected. They became shame, guilt and humiliation.

I learned how to become a people-pleaser and a self-saboteur.

I learned how to "get by" without any purpose or meaning in my life.

I learned that if I didn't try something new I couldn't fail and wouldn't do anything wrong.

I learned that if I just stayed in bubble of comfort I would be safe.

I learned that nobody could discipline me and tell me what to do if I just kept quiet and lived a "normal" life.

Except I didn't fit into the "normal" lifestyle.

The life lessons I learned by being disciplined induced anxiety and depression.

Society has not taught me very little. School taught me very little that is useful.

I educated myself. I learned self-discipline, self-respect, self-awareness, self-acceptance, self-esteem, self-love and self-trust.

The 7 pillars of wellbeing.

Today I am confident, courageous, happy, grateful, and satisfied.

I'm still different and misunderstood, but **** it. I'm alright being me.

Many of us go through life feeling lost and disconnected. We struggle with self-doubt, and repeating patterns of self-sabotage that hold us back.

I know this from personal experience. I used to be prone to self-sabotage because I was insecure, low self-esteem and a poor self-image.

But I transformed and so can you!

After 10 years of studying depth psychology and researching frontier sciences like neurobiology, quantum physics and consciousness research, I develop an archetypes model that reveals why you are facing challenges and how you can fix them.

The From Surviving To Thriving program introduces you to all 12 archetypes over the course of 12 months. Each week we discuss, the functions of an archetype, how to recognise them in your personality and how to develop them to become the best version of yourself.

This month we are discussing the Ruler archetype - the decision-making faculty of the mind. If you want to know how to create the life you want to experience, find out how to recognise and develop your Ruler.

Join us on Thursday 1st May at 7 pm GMT.

The mind takes centre stage in our lives. How you cultivate your mind has a direct influence on how you experience life.

Quantum physics shows us that all energy contains information and that all matter contains energy.

Biology shows us that the central nervous system (CNS) absorbs information from environment, processes it and stores it as memory.

Psychology shows that memories influence our decision making and our decisions influence how we experience life.

If your current life experiences leave you with feelings of shame, guilt, disappointment, humiliation, sadness, regret, depression, anxiety and other low-energy feelings, it’s in your best interests to upgrade the information stored as memory in your CNS.

Every experience you have in life is recording information and storing it as memory.

So to change the information you store, create a new experience.

You can do this by:

- changing your behaviours
- reframe negative thoughts into positive thoughts
- adopting a different attitude
- swap a bad habit for a healthy habit
- reflect on your day and consider what you did well and what you could do better
- protect your boundaries
- learn how to say no
- tell someone how much you appreciate them
- accept yourself and others
- don't get emotionally involved with things that are outside of your control

How you choose to use your mind can be cultivated. If you neglect to, how precious is your mind?

If there was only one thing you needed to understand to save your life, what would it be..?

For me, it was my mind.

From a neuroscience pov, the mind is a network of electrical impulses and chemical signals interacting to produce, thoughts, emotions, perception, memory and conscious awareness.

Psychologists also demonstrate the mind is unconscious but still produces thoughts, emotions, perception and memory.

The contents of your mind, whether they are in conscious awareness or not, influence how you experience life.

I used to carry anxiety and depression. This was not a good time in my life. Every day, I felt nauseous, restless and lost. Most nights, I couldn’t sleep and I felt like an empty shell.

The panic attacks got worse. The third time it happened, I forgot how to breathe and seriously thought I was going to die.

At that time in my life, my unconscious mind was filled with thoughts that limited my potential, with emotions that made me feel on edge, with perceptions that made me feel lonely, alienated, disrespected, unheard and misunderstood.

These are the contents of a mind that carries anxiety and depression. These contents are costly to individuals, families, and businesses.

All it takes is for someone to realise that and learn how to develop a mind that is attuned to connecting with others so you have a sense of belonging, building trust in yourself to eradicate the poor self-image and making decisions that prove you are worthy of love, happiness and abundance.

A pill won’t do that for you.

What does your life look like right now? How would you like it to look?

What do you want to create?

And do you know how to create it?

How we experience life is determined by the actions we choose to take. And our behaviours are prompted by thoughts and emotions.

Thoughts and emotions are consciousness. They are memories stored in our central nervous system (CNS). Memories are made from the experiences we have in life.

With every experience we have in life, the CNS is gathering information from the environment. Information is then encoded, processed and stored. We call this storage memory.

Thus a memory is a piece of information which is retrieved by the brain and communicated via neural networks. The information processed by neural networks determines your course of action.

If you're not creating the life you want to experience, it is advisable to upgrade your memories with information that enables you to create the experiences you desire.

What do you want from life?

What is important to you?

Is it meaningful relationships, love, inner peace, adventure, happiness, joy, confidence, satisfaction, to be acknowledged and accepted, purpose and self-esteem?

All these things are achievable for everyone.

Or is it wealth, power, fame, a big house, an exclusive car, luxury holidays and other material desires we often dream about, wish and chase?

These are not achievable for everybody.
