#12 - 3 Improv Principles That Get You Unstuck in Real Life (No Acting Required)

The difference between staying stuck and building momentum isn't motivation — it's a success mindset shift that most people skip. What if feeling stuck has less to do with motivation… and more to do with how you relate to the moment you’re in? In this episode of The Luca Savazzi Podcast, I share three powerful principles from improv theatre that you can apply directly in real life when you feel stuck. Not as performance.Not as positivity. But as practical ways to move forward without forcing motivation. We explore: * The real meaning behind “Yes, And” (and why “Yes, But” keeps you stuck) * Why making your partner look good shifts your focus and unlocks movement * How “There Are No Mistakes, Only Opportunities” changes the way you handle failure * The link between improv and growth mindset• Why self-focus can quietly freeze progress These principles helped me move from pressure to presence — both on stage and in life.If you’ve been overthinking, doubting yourself, or waiting to feel ready… this episode is for you.

#11 - The Life You Want Starts When You Stop Waiting for Permission with Maggie Harlow

It's time to explore self awareness and find a self improvement guide to break free from old patterns, helping you on your personal growth journey and fostering a significant mindset shift. 🧠✨ Maggie shares why permission is often self-granted, how expectations quietly influence our lives, and why learning to question beliefs can create more freedom, self-trust, and alignment. Many people spend years waiting for permission. * Permission to change. * Permission to try something new. * Permission to stop doing what no longer fits. * Permission to question the beliefs they’ve been carrying for years. In this conversation with Maggie Harlow we explore how our identities, assumptions, and invisible rules shape the choices we make every day—and what becomes possible when we start asking a simple question: Is it really true? This isn’t about making reckless decisions or abandoning responsibility.It’s about becoming more aware of the beliefs underneath your choices and deciding whether they still belong in your life. In this episode: * Why so many people wait for permission * The hidden beliefs shaping your decisions * How identity can become a trap * Why disappointing people isn’t always wrong * Small acts of permission that create meaningful change * The difference between self-trust and self-indulgence * How to question beliefs that are holding you back * Why there may not be a “right” decisionIf this conversation resonates, take a moment to ask yourself: Which beliefs are guiding your life right now—and are they really yours? ------ About Maggie Harlow Find out more about Maggie Harlow, and her book Everyday Extraordinary on: https://www.maggieharlow.com Maggie also talked about Byron Katie's work, which you can find on: https://thework.com ------ Maggie and I are both members of BrandBuildersGroup.

#10 - You’re Not Stuck. You’re Rehearsing a Script.

Self talk is rarely loud, but it’s constant. And the self talk you repeat quietly shapes the identity you live inside. You might not be stuck. You might just be rehearsing the same lines. In this episode, I explore how language becomes identity. How repeating phrases like “I’m bad with money” or “I always mess up” slowly turns into something that feels true , not because it is, but because it’s rehearsed. As an actor, I’ve experienced how powerful rehearsal is. The more you step into a role, the more natural it feels. The question is: Are you rehearsing someone you actually want to become? What We Explore * The difference between identity and experience * How negative self talk becomes automatic * Why repetition creates internal “truth” * The subtle shift from labeling to describing * A 7-day awareness experiment If this episode resonates, notice what script you’ve been running. 🎥  If you prefer video ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠f⁠ind me on YouTube⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ [https://www.youtube.com/@lucasavazzipodcast] 💌 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Join my newsletter⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ [https://pages.lucasavazzi.com/55685/newsletter?utm_source=audiopodcast] for reflections and updates:👋🏼 Let's Connect: Instagram: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/luca_savazzi/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ [https://www.instagram.com/luca_savazzi/] LinkedIn: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.linkedin.com/in/lucasavazzi/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ [https://www.linkedin.com/in/lucasavazzi/] Facebook: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.facebook.com/luca.savazzi⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ [https://www.facebook.com/luca.savazzi] More about me:👉 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.lucasavazzi.com⁠⁠ [https://www.lucasavazzi.com]

#8 - Before You Reach for Your Phone, Ask Yourself This

Most moments don’t disappear.We just leave them.This episode isn’t about phones or social media.It’s about presence, attention, and the quiet cost of turning life into content without really noticing what we’re trading for it.We create.We consume.We scroll through the in-between moments that used to be pauses.And slowly, often without realising it, we drift.In this episode, I share a few personal moments that made me stop and notice when I was no longer fully there — during a movie night, in social situations, and on New Year’s Eve — and the small shift that helped me interrupt autopilot.It comes down to one simple question I now ask myself in the moment…and another one I reflect on later.Because every moment asks something of your attention.And every time you give that attention somewhere, you’re also not giving it somewhere else.That’s the cost.If this episode resonates, feel free to share it with someone you care about, and let them know what made you think of them.Thanks for being here.I’m Luca. 🎥  If you prefer video ⁠⁠⁠⁠f⁠ind me on YouTube⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ [https://www.youtube.com/@lucasavazzipodcast] 💌 ⁠⁠⁠Join my newsletter⁠⁠⁠ [https://pages.lucasavazzi.com/55685/newsletter?utm_source=audiopodcast] for reflections and updates:👋🏼 Let's Connect: Instagram: ⁠⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/luca_savazzi/⁠⁠⁠ [https://www.instagram.com/luca_savazzi/] LinkedIn: ⁠⁠⁠https://www.linkedin.com/in/lucasavazzi/⁠⁠⁠ [https://www.linkedin.com/in/lucasavazzi/] Facebook: ⁠⁠⁠https://www.facebook.com/luca.savazzi⁠⁠⁠ [https://www.facebook.com/luca.savazzi] More about me:👉 ⁠⁠⁠https://www.lucasavazzi.com⁠⁠ [https://www.lucasavazzi.com]
