This was one of my favourite conversations!
In Episode #92 of Money Mastery with Marshy, I was joined by the incredible Sam Healy, who is founder of ‘Be & Co Meditation’.
Sam shares his mission to normalize solo meditation as a tool for growth, calm, and connection, drawing on his experience bringing meditation into classrooms and now helping high performers and leaders become ‘Focus Fit’.
We dive deep into:
Sam's journey from sceptical teacher to meditation advocate after witnessing profound changes in himself and his students.
The science of meditation and its impact on reducing reactivity, increasing pro-social behaviours, and rewiring the brain through neuroplasticity.
The evolution of Sam's practice from guided to solo meditation, why consistency is key, and why solo meditation is the "missing link" for lasting wellbeing.
How meditation builds patience, strengthens focus, improves decision-making, and allows deeper connection to love, trust, and intuition.
The layers of meditation from focused attention, to open awareness, to states of connection, and how they correlate with shifts in brainwave states.
Practical tips for starting a practice, including Sam's "traction target" approach, how 90 seconds a day is enough to begin, and why perfection isn't required.
Sam's "Focus Fit Effect" framework: aligning love (relationship with stress), fear (relationship with ego), and trust (relationship with growth over death) to build an empowered life.
Key quote from Sam:
"Meditation is the gateway to love — not the Valentine's version, but love as a deep trust in yourself, your growth, and everything around you."
