In The Moment with Alex Manzi

On this week's In Focus session I discuss how to create the "easy" in your life. If you want to do new things, or change something in your life that isn't working, or create more opportunities for yourself... you've got to stop making it harder than it is. A thing is harder -or easier- than something else only because we believe it is, because our mind has labeled it as such. If you want to change...

On this week's episode I'm happy to share this amazing conversation with author, podcaster and entrepreneur Daniel DiPiazza. Daniel has his own podcast "The New Wave Podcast". He has an eclectic mind and together we discuss opening our minds to different levels of consciousness, in particular through our experiences with mushrooms and psychedelics, the discoveries we've made, and how we have integ...

On this week's In Focus session I discuss how we experience the world around us, our life, through the lens of our thoughts. It's like everyone is constantly wearing a pair of "VR Goggles of Thought", seeing only what's in our thinking. However, we often don't even realise that this is happening.  On this episode I discuss: How you're only ever experiencing your own thoughts Your experience is alw...

She's also a public speaker and in 2017 Amy opened The Little...

On this week's In Focus session I discuss how to forgive yourself and live free from the past and judgement of yourself.

On this week's In Focus session I discuss about how abundance is everywhere, and how our mind creates limitations. This episode is the third that comes from the insights that I've had in this past month of coaching retreats. This time, I'm talking about abundance and opportunities being around us, and how our mind creates limitations that don't allow us to see this. What happens is: we have a thou...

On this week's In Focus session I discuss how we often suffer needlessly. This episode is the second that comes from the insights that I've had in this past month of coaching retreats. This time, I'm talking about how we create our own suffering, and how this suffering doesn't have to be. Because It's our thinking that separates our feelings in good and bad ones. That creates the conflict we live...

On this week's In Focus session I discuss how to adjust the speed of your life. This episode comes from the amazing insights that I've had in this past month of coaching retreats. In particular, here I'm discussing the need that we have to adjust the speed of our lives. We can't drive in gear 5 all the time. Sometimes we have to accept the fact that if we're in gear 5 in one area of our life, othe...

On this week's In Focus session I discuss who is the 'self' you're trying to develop? In a lot of the personal development world, we talk about developing the 'self' but when we take a deeper look at who this 'self' is, it makes less and less sense to focus on developing it. I believe this world of growth is a subtractive process, yet when we are looking at developing a 'self'. it can be the oppos...

Syd Banks, was an ordinary working man, not searching for truth or wisdom or even aware of much beyond his day-to-day life.

On this week's In Focus session I discuss the difference between application and implication. In a lot of the personal development world, people are offering 'How To' or steps to achieve things.  While I don't see this as a bad thing, I do think there is something bigger at play. That, is understanding the implications of your personal learnings rather than looking at how to apply them. On this ep...

It’s one of inner peace, unconditional love and clarity....

Jamal Edwards, the founder of the media platform SBTV, which helped to launch grime and a new wave of artists to a global audience, died on Sunday morning at the age of 31. Jamal is someone who I knew through my time spent in the music industry and saw as a real inspirational character. So it hit me really hard to hear that he had passed away at such a tender age. Edwards was also a director, nove...
