Jen Sincero | From the Vault

Jen Sincero is a bestselling author, success coach and motivational speaker who, after transforming her own life, turned her attention to to helping others transform theirs.I first read Jen’s books about four years ago and they lit a fire under me at a time when I was feeling as though the world was against me - and the world was winning. Unlike other self-help books Jen’s tone is no-nonsense mixed with tough love - there’s a directness to her books that make their wisdom impossible to ignore.In this conversation, which was originally published in June 2017, @jensincero and I discuss:Why we all have the ability within us to create what we desire.Why it’s important to evaluate and understand your relationship with money. Why it’s not uncommon for women to subconsciously shy away from making money.You don’t have to act like a man in order to be financially wealthy.The importance of getting outside of your comfort zone.Why taking responsibility for your situation is the best starting point for effecting change.Why listening to others doubts and fears can be damaging and how vital it is to surround yourself with the people who’ll cheer you on.Why the word ‘realistically’ is so ridiculous.The power of visualisation and going to your ‘spiritual gym’.Why rejection is proof that you’re trying.To join the closed Facebook group for the podcast click here >> The Emma Guns Show Forum.To follow me on social media >> Twitter | Instagram.Hey!

Bianca del Rio | From the Vault

From the VaultBianca del Rio - September 2018.Bianca del Rio is a comedian, drag queen and entrepreneur who came on the show in 2018 to discuss fame, work ethic and staying on track when the world may be trying to push you off course.This conversation has really stayed with me and Bianca, real name Roy Haylock, gives really excellent motivational advice in this episode. I remember leaving the hotel after this recording and feeling wired and inspired. Seriously, I enjoy Tony Robbins as much as the next person, but Bianca del Rio can be my guru any day.I come back to his words time and time again, which is why I wanted to revisit this conversation. Also, the advice and perspective within this show is timeless and when I went back to re-listen I realised that much of it what Roy shares is the kind of thing it’s useful to be reminded of.In the two years since this conversation happened Bianca starred in the sequel to the hugely popular film Hurricane Bianca, performed on the West End in Everybody’s Talking about Jamie and was the first drag queen in history* to headline, and sell-out, Wembley Arena on the It’s Jester Joke stand-up comedy tour.I’ve bookmarked this episode with a note that says, ‘when you’re on the brink of wallowing, listen to this’…In this conversation @biancedelrio and I discuss:Being true to who you are, understanding that some people aren’t going to like you for it, but moving on with purpose regardless.Why an opportunity is only as good as what you do with it.Why the ‘hustle’ is far harder than you can imagine, but what consistency and perseverance pay off in the long-term.The importance of taking responsibility for what you say and your actions.Building coping mechanisms that don’t include complaining to someone else/a social media platform.Why it’s so important to get out of your own head and much more…To join the closed Facebook group for the podcast click here >> The Emma Guns Show Forum.To follow me on social media >> Twitter | Instagram.Hey!

Bullet Points | Managing Loneliness.

In this episode, I talk through some tactics that may help, in the short term, if you're feeling lonely. Whether it's because of the lockdown restrictions, the new 'normal' of working from home or because you've just found yourself in a situation where you're alone a lot, and that's uncomfortable or not preferable to you, then these strategies may be helpful.Avoid falling into the comparison trap. In other words, don't measure the value of your life and experience against others, especially if the medium via which you are comparing is a social media platform.Use your social media profiles for good and if that means muting a few people then so be it.Lean into boredom. And I mean really lean into it.Be physical and use exercise as a way of breaking up the day.Get outside and really appreciate the sights, sounds and how it feels to be out in the fresh air. It's proven to reduce blood pressure and help with feelings of depression.Rather than focusing on all the things being alone aren't allowing you do, focus on what being alone does allow you to do. If you're really struggling with loneliness and need support then visit The Samaritans or seek support from a service such as Self Space.To join the closed Facebook group for the podcast click here >> The Emma Guns Show Forum.To follow me on social media >> Twitter | Instagram.Hey!
