    EP 286 From Solo Mom to CEO: Sasha Eburne’s Journey of Business Success and Empowerment
    Dec 8 2025
    Welcome to a vibrant and inspiring episode of the Stuck In My Mind Podcast with your host, Wize El Jefe, as he welcomes powerhouse entrepreneur, coach, and podcast host Sasha Eburne to the show. This compelling conversation is a must-listen for anyone navigating career transitions, overcoming self-doubt, or seeking the courage to step fully into their potential—especially women with ambitions of entrepreneurship and leadership. The episode kicks off with Wize El Jefe introducing Sasha Eburne as a living example of stepping into your power: after the devastation of losing her hospitality career during the COVID pandemic, Sasha Eburne pivoted to launch her own venture as a solo mom. Within just 24 hours, she secured her first client, and, driven by relentless resourcefulness, she was fully booked with clients within three weeks. Her journey didn't stop there—she skyrocketed her business to a national level, leading a team of 15 and building a company that supported her life as a devoted mother. Listeners are given an authentic look at Sasha Eburne’s life before entrepreneurship—a 25-year journey in hospitality management, working in hotels across Australia, the Middle East, and Vanuatu. Everything changed in 2020 when the pandemic hit, forcing her to reevaluate her career path. After a stint in real estate left her unfulfilled, a conversation with a friend introduced her to the virtual assistant industry—a critical turning point that sparked her entrepreneurial leap. In a candid discussion, Sasha Eburne dismantles myths around "breaking the rules" or pursuing a nontraditional career. Instead, her story is about listening to intuition and seizing opportunity with no roadmap but total commitment. She discusses overcoming fears of judgment, financial instability, and the naysayers who projected their limiting beliefs onto her. Sasha Eburne emphasizes how support systems—a network of people who “see what you see”—are crucial for entrepreneurial resilience. Both Wize El Jefe and Sasha Eburne resonate on the impact of overcoming self-doubt, sharing personal anecdotes of pushing past internal voices saying, “Who do you think you are?” A highlight of this episode is the emphasis on action over waiting for external validation. Sasha Eburne “left no stone unturned,” leveraging every network and social platform to announce her new business and connect with clients. Her boldness proved contagious, leading to rapid business growth and continuous opportunities for expansion. The conversation evolves into the power of mindset: the dangers of taking on other people’s limiting beliefs and the necessity of aligning with one’s own vision. Sasha Eburne reflects on how many women (and entrepreneurs in general) struggle with feelings of "asking for too much" or fall into the trap of “hustle equals worth.” She explains that true transformation and momentum stem from clarity, not chaos—a philosophy that underpins her approach to coaching women to scale businesses without sacrificing wellness or personal freedom. Another fascinating thread in this episode is Sasha Eburne’s embrace of personal growth tools, including breathwork, sound healing, and neuro-linguistic programming. She shares how these practices have not only improved her own well-being but have become essential resources that she teaches to clients worldwide. Sasha Eburne describes the evolution of her coaching business—now supporting both women and men globally, running retreats, and certifying others in healing practices. It's an inspiring lesson in weaving together business, spirituality, and global community. For listeners interested in practical wisdom, Sasha Eburne lays out the essential strategies that led to her success: the importance of investing in coaches/mentors, hiring and trusting teams, leveraging automation and AI, and not shying away from outsourcing what you’re not an expert in. She and Wize El Jefe discuss how AI has been a powerful tool for scaling, reducing burnout, and freeing up creators and business owners to focus on what truly matters. The episode culminates with messages of encouragement for all ambitious women: if Sasha Eburne can do it, so can you. There’s no secret ingredient—only a willingness to ask for help, invest in learning, surround yourself with allies, and remain bold in the face of fear and judgment. As Wize El Jefe puts it, “If you want to start something, don’t wait for permission. Just start. Your story is proof that your circumstances don’t get the final word—your choices do.” Listeners will leave this episode motivated by Sasha Eburne's remarkable path from adversity to abundance, equipped with insights to turn setbacks into setups for their next big leap. Whether you’re launching a business, exploring new income streams, or simply seeking fresh inspiration, this conversation will remind you that greatness is accessible to everyone with the courage to claim it. ...

  • EP 285 Unlocking Fulfillment: Somatic Healing, Success, and Embodied Leadership with Angel Howard

    EP 285 Unlocking Fulfillment: Somatic Healing, Success, and Embodied Leadership with Angel Howard
    Dec 2 2025
    Welcome to an eye-opening episode of the "Stuck In My Mind Podcast," hosted by Wize El Jefe, featuring a profound conversation with the multi-faceted Angel Howard—professional dancer, corporate executive, somatic movement therapist, and founder of Wild Heart Expressive and the Chakra Mental Method. This episode, rich with authentic reflection and practical wisdom, is a heartfelt exploration into the power of embodiment, the challenges of high achievement, and the essential role of communication in well-being and leadership. The Body Never Lies: A Journey from Burnout to Alignment The episode begins with Wize El Jefe reflecting on his own journey to meaning through podcasting, setting the stage for Angel Howard's transformative story. Angel Howard candidly shares her corporate beginnings in the high-pressure world of 1980s business culture. She describes the physical and emotional toll of burnout—“the day I couldn’t get off the couch”—and how this was a wake-up call to attend not just to outward success, but to inner fulfillment. Through firsthand anecdotes, she illustrates how the relentless pursuit of “more” is often empty, driving individuals away from their true needs and into exhaustion. What makes Angel Howard’s narrative compelling is her recognition that the body holds and expresses our deepest stories, even when words fail us. She unpacks the dynamics of corporate posturing, the “peacocking” of success, and how the disconnect between words and bodily signals breeds mistrust. The somatic awareness she brings is not only insightful but actionable, offering listeners a lens to examine their own lived experiences of stress, ambition, and authenticity. Cross-Cultural Discoveries & Reclaiming Joy A pivotal moment in Angel Howard’s journey was her time studying and living in Europe, where she discovered cultures that prize communal meals, relaxation, and appreciation for life beyond work. The contrast between European and American work cultures highlights the importance of self-care and the integration of play and rest into daily life. Wize El Jefe resonates with this, contemplating how fear and lack of courage can hold people back from living more joyfully and authentically. The episode finds its emotional center when Angel Howard asks Wize El Jefe what feeds his soul—a question that opens up a vulnerable, honest discussion about finding purpose through podcasting, self-growth, and spiritual practice. Both speakers share how intentional reflection, affirmations, and connecting to a higher purpose have brought them greater alignment and joy. The Healing Power of Movement Angel Howard delves deeper into how movement became her lifeline during personal crisis, notably in the aftermath of a traumatic marriage experience. She recounts lying in fetal position, paralyzed by grief, and discovering that simply moving her body—even a finger—helped her process pain and reclaim her sense of self. This raw story exemplifies the essence of somatic healing: expressing and releasing emotions through embodied practices. She explains the foundations of her work with Wild Heart Expressive and the Chakra Mental Method, integrating yogic principles, elements like fire and water, and the understanding of how emotional states manifest physically. Her approach helps individuals locate sensations in the body, connect them with emotions and stories, and begin the process of conscious, embodied leadership. Success, High Achievement, and Why “More” is Never Enough The conversation turns to why high achievers—especially those shaped by achievement-oriented families and demanding career environments—often feel unfulfilled despite their visible success. Angel Howard shares her personal struggle with always feeling she must do better, never being “enough,” and how this internalized pressure can become like an addiction to achievement itself. Crucially, she encourages listeners to celebrate every milestone and practice gratitude, rather than relentlessly chasing external validation. The pair discuss the pernicious effects of social comparison, particularly in the era of social media, and how true fulfillment requires shifting focus from external accomplishments to internal motivations. Angel Howard suggests practical self-inquiry questions for listeners who sense something missing beneath their success: Why do you feel unfulfilled? Are your motivations driven by genuine internal desires or by societal expectations and comparison? Communication: The Foundation of All Relationships One of the most powerful themes of the episode is communication—both internal (with oneself) and external (with others). Angel Howard reveals that 93% of communication is nonverbal, consisting of body language, eye contact, and gestures. This insight becomes crucial in the realm of leadership, where congruence between words and embodied presence breeds trust and inspires teams. As she prepares for her next ...

  • EP 284 From Stage Four Cancer to Holistic Healing: Georges Córdoba’s Journey to Quality of Life

    EP 284 From Stage Four Cancer to Holistic Healing: Georges Córdoba’s Journey to Quality of Life
    Nov 18 2025
    In this transformative and deeply personal episode of the "Stuck In My Mind Podcast," host Wize El Jefe welcomes Georges Córdoba, a former chief technology officer turned holistic health coach, functional nutritionist, energy healer, speaker, and founder of Qualavita. Georges brings a remarkable story of survival, healing, and paradigm-shifting perspective on health—one forged through climbing life's toughest mountain: surviving stage 4 melanoma with brain metastasis. The conversation begins with Wize El Jefe setting the stage, introducing Georges as someone who didn't just survive a decade-long battle with cancer marked by 10 surgeries—including multiple brain operations—but completely transformed his life thereafter. Georges Córdoba shares heartfelt gratitude for the chance to tell his story, marking this July as his 13th year cancer-free—a journey that ultimately led him into holistic health coaching. Listeners are taken through the specifics of Georges' battle, starting as a CTO suddenly diagnosed with advanced melanoma, facing eight brain tumors, two of which were deemed inoperable. With Western medicine running out of answers, Georges describes reaching a pivotal breaking point—when the conventional treatments and financial strains became unbearable. Georges details his leap of faith into holistic modalities, from acupuncture to energy work, navigating doubt and surrender through faith and a search for discernment. The emotional depth comes alive as he describes moments of spiritual resilience in a chapel, praying for guidance amidst recurrence and uncertainty. Conversation shifts to the big picture: the current health crisis in the United States. Drawing upon his speaking engagements and research from the American Cancer Society and Harvard School of Health, Georges offers sobering statistics—66% of US adults have at least one chronic disease, and obesity rates are soaring. He calls out the systemic issues, from the food industry’s questionable practices to the entrenched financial incentives in healthcare, arguing that the nation is plagued not only by poor nutrition and lifestyle, but also by a lack of preventative initiatives. Wize El Jefe and Georges trade personal anecdotes about changes in society, food culture, and the normalization of processed foods. Their frank discussion exposes the convenience trap and its severe health consequences, comparing the eating habits of past decades with the fast-food norm of today. Georges passionately explains his holistic health philosophy, which now encompasses functional nutrition, emotional healing, hypnosis, and energy work. He reflects on the hardest and most impactful practices to master, such as hypnotherapy, and debunks pervasive myths about disease and heredity. Drawing from the latest epigenetic science, he asserts that nearly all chronic illness originates in emotional distress, acidic/inflamed bodies, and unhealthy lifestyles—not genetics alone. A core segment explores how most Americans eat too quickly and chew too little, leading to poor digestion and chronic health issues. Georges presents vivid metaphors and practical advice—slowing down, breathing deeply before meals, and chewing food thoroughly, so digestion can happen properly and health can be restored. As Wize El Jefe shares his own journey of weight loss and improved well-being, the episode turns toward empowerment, resilience, and the actionable steps listeners can take. Georges outlines his program, Qualavita, which means “quality of life.” Through personalized coaching, group movements like his new Prevention Revolution, and forthcoming books, Georges aspires to help clients unlock vitality from within. His approach treats the whole person—physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual—drawing from wisdom traditions, modern science, and lived experience. The episode is filled with practical guidance: from nutrition tips and emotional healing practices to mindsets that foster hope and transformation. Georges illustrates how faith, purpose, and consistent action are essential to healing, sharing inspiring testimonials and anecdotes from his own family and clients. For listeners who may feel powerless battling disease, Georges delivers a powerful, compassionate message: healing happens from the inside out, and the answers for transformation are within. He shares the importance of believing in yourself, taking control of your choices, and seeking out supportive communities and resources. For those feeling lost after a diagnosis, Georges offers strategies for managing fear, advocating for yourself within the healthcare system, and using positive visualization to empower the mind and body toward healing. As the episode closes, Georges shares where listeners can find him, access his bestselling book "Beating the Odds," and join his new programs for both prevention and healing. His advocacy: take action and start the journey toward true quality of life—slow ...
