Charley is back in the hot seat with questions from Tara, the newest member of the team and she doesn’t hold back!

First question… (the elephant in the room) What role does privilege play in personal-development?

We break down the three levels to meditation, why it’s so misunderstood and why meditation is at the crux of making change and making better decisions.

And lastly, how Charley managed to use Clarity to overcome self-doubt and rediscover his why and excitement for the project.

Enjoy this episode!

Making change doesn’t have to be sudden, abrupt or even reactive – instead it can be slow as we evolve through the passage of time.

Esteban beautifully articulates how the influences of his bohemian parents helped him navigate the ups and downs of life.

What makes this episode so special is witnessing someone that has learned, from such a young age, to embrace the likes of mindfulness, gratitude, meditation, the importance of being present and prioritising one’s happiness, as a lifestyle and attitude, as opposed to a more prescribed practice.

By being so open about how he thinks, his mindset, and approach to his new brand and life chapter – Esteban gives a special insight into how to seize new opportunity with grace and authenticity. So many great takeaways here. Thank you Esteban.
