Episode #194 - Finding Joy In All The Places Of Our Lives: An Interview With Andrea Fung

Joy is a sensation that can have multiple applications in our well being. Whether it is for physical or mental purposes and/or refinements, joy can be the epiphany of why we perform the activities that we tend to do. The path towards finding joy can be riddled with many different obstacles, both in our personal lives and even for our career calling. Today's guest, Andrea Fung, shares her transformational journey from being a lawyer to become a healer through another means. The life that we are dictated to lead can provide no joy, but when we have the "breadcrumbs" that lead us to a greater calling, there is no denying the healing potential it can have not only on yourself, but on others as well. Guest Bio Andea Fung is former lawyer turned Transformational Coach and Energy Healer for corporate professionals and soulful entrepreneurs based in Australia and Malaysia. With 6 years of experience in the legal sector she has intimate encounters with the wide spectrum of challenges faced by high achieving professionals and is now dedicated towards helping these ambitious business professionals achieve fulfillment and find purpose in their lives. As a certified NLP practitioner and Thetahealer, Andrea adopts a holistic approach in empowering her clients to unearth the wellspring of happiness within themselves.

Episode #193 - Testing Your Abilities

Have you ever been tested by someone, whether it is someone in your life or at your job/business, who did not give you the credibility that you deserve? Has your self worth and feeling of worthiness been put into question as a result of being challenged/misunderstood? Today’s episode focuses on not only the reaction that we, as humans, can possibly experience when we are put into question, but how the conversation can turn around using the “determination” value to prove to others, even though it is unnecessary, that we are worthy.
