Understanding Trauma: Why Healing Is Crucial for Personal Growth with Riana Milne

Why We Need to Heal with Riana Milne

This week’s episode is a powerful conversation with Riana Milne, a trauma recovery specialist, where we dive deep into the concept of trauma and why it’s crucial to address it in our lives. Many of the things we consider “normal” might actually be unprocessed trauma that manifests in surprising ways. Subscribe to my newsletter for more in-depth discussions and insights delivered right to your inbox! Join here

Don’t miss out on more insightful content—hit subscribe to stay updated with our weekly explorations on mental health, personal growth, and more!

In this episode, Riana helps us unpack key insights about trauma:

What kind of traumas are there? And why is it so important to recognize it?

How does trauma affect adult life? Learn why unresolved trauma creeps into our behaviors and relationships.

How can we heal from trauma? Riana provides valuable advice on addressing and processing trauma for lasting change.

One of the most important takeaways for me was the realization that change only happens when the pain of unaddressed trauma becomes more harmful than the defense mechanisms we create around it. We all have the ability to heal, and Riana offers practical steps to begin this process.

I’m curious to hear your thoughts—this is a topic that affects so many of us, often without realizing it. Be sure to check out Riana’s website where she provides free resources and the option to schedule a call if you need guidance on your trauma recovery journey.

Is Individuality Destroying Community in Europe?

🌍 Loneliness is on the rise, and the spirit of community is fading across Europe. But why is this happening? Join me in my first-ever scripted video as I dive deep into the growing tension between individuality and community. 📉✨ 💡 Don’t miss out on more insightful content—hit subscribe to stay updated with my latest videos on societal trends and personal growth! 🔔 🎙️ In this video, I explore how the increasing emphasis on individualism has weakened the communal bonds that once held society together. Through extensive research and data, I reveal a troubling trend: the rise of loneliness and the decline of community spirit across Europe. The Core Issues: 🧩 The Rise of Individualism: How it’s leading to disconnection and isolation. 🏘️ The Decline of Community: Why we’re losing the sense of belonging that’s essential for human happiness. 🤝 Reviving Community Spirit: The simple yet powerful solution of bringing back compromise and cooperation. Living in isolation might seem feasible when your needs are met, but true community offers something deeper—a sense of belonging and shared humanity. Many in Europe feel disconnected because they’ve lost this essential connection. It’s not enough to simply coexist. We must actively contribute to the well-being of those around us. Let’s work together to restore the sense of community that’s been lost.

Food: Is It Just Nutrition or Is There More to It?

🍽️ Is food just about nutrition, or does it carry deeper emotional meaning? This week’s podcast features a lively conversation with William, where we explore two very different perspectives on the value of food in our lives. 🍲 💡 Don’t miss out on more fascinating discussions—hit subscribe and stay updated with our weekly explorations on personal growth, food culture, and more! 🔔 💌 Subscribe to my newsletter for more thought-provoking conversations and insights delivered right to your inbox! 📩 https://thisisvasl.com/the-weekly-vasl/ 🎙️ In this episode, William and I find ourselves on opposite ends of the spectrum when it comes to food: William’s Perspective: Food is purely about nutrition. In his view, to truly relish the rich, emotional meals, you need a balance of regular, simple food to appreciate the good stuff. My Perspective: I believe food holds emotional meaning, and the effort and taste should be what matters most, without needing to balance it with "normal" food. We may disagree, but through our conversation, we find some common ground. I acknowledge that if I keep eating the delicious meals my mom used to make, I might take them for granted—just like I did growing up. It’s a great back-and-forth, full of insights about how we experience food. Join us for this engaging discussion and see which side you resonate with! 🍴💬 Disclaimer: Apologies for the occasional noise in the background! 🎧

Are You Unknowingly Creating Quiet Quitters in Your Team? Stefan ft Ahad Budhani

Happy Friday, everyone! Today, I'm joined by my good friend Stefan, whom I met during one of our philosophical group sessions. As members of the corporate world, Stefan and I are no strangers to the concept of 'quiet quitting.' This phenomenon has become increasingly prevalent and can no longer be ignored in any office environment. Many employees experience this dilemma silently, without discussing it openly. Before the COVID-19 pandemic, quiet quitting was relatively uncommon. However, the term gained traction in 2022, particularly among Gen Z, as the pandemic triggered 'The Great Resignation.' It's clear that quiet quitting emerged as a silent trend during this period of significant workplace change. Join us as we delve into this topic and explore its implications in today's corporate landscape.

Conversations no one wants to have!

Welcome to the June edition of our podcast! This month, we have a special solo run by Ahad, who dives into the intriguing topic of luck and its role in our lives. While it might seem that luck diminishes the importance of hard work, Ahad emphasizes that luck is just a small part of the equation for success. When viewed positively, luck complements the effort and determination we put into our endeavors.


Ahad also reflects on how our generation has evolved compared to our parents and grandparents. With advancements in technology, we've become more productive and efficient, yet it's worth noting that luck might have played a more favorable role for the newer generations in certain aspects.


Speaking of generations, with Father's Day fast approaching, we have a special segment dedicated to celebrating this meaningful occasion. Be sure not to miss out on this heartfelt tribute!

Creating income from what you love to do - William Petruzzo ft Ahad Budhani

Ladies and gentlemen, Friday has arrived at the speed of light, and Ahad and William are back with an exciting and thought-provoking discussion. This time, they're diving into a topic that resonates with many of us: the delicate balance between enjoying our hobbies and turning them into a source of income.

We all know that hobbies keep us engaged and happy, often providing a much-needed escape from our daily routines. The idea of capitalizing on these passions might seem brilliant at first—imagine doing what you love and getting paid for it! However, Ahad and William have come to realize that commodifying personal interests can come with its own set of challenges. Turning your hobby into a business means your once-relaxing pastime could become a source of stress and pressure, leaving you with little for personal enjoyment. Join them as they explore the nuanced reality of this topic, shedding light on an issue that is rarely discussed.
