If you’re ready to face your excuses, step into your purpose, and cultivate mental and emotional strength, this episode offers the blueprint. About the Guest:Hakeem Bourne McFarlane is the founder of the Choose Yourself movement, an author, and a motivational leader dedicated to helping people reclaim their power and transform their lives. With a mission to face trauma head-on and create actionable change, Hakeem inspires individuals to align with their true selves and build resilience through authenticity, discipline, and self-mastery. Key Takeaways: Choosing yourself means reclaiming the version of you that was meant to exist before adversity and societal expectations. Self-focus vs. selfishness: Prioritize delayed gratification, health, and discipline instead of indulging in instant gratification. Break free from self-sabotage by embracing discomfort and establishing daily routines that build conscious control. Momentum is built through faith, consistency, and small daily actions that prepare you for both opportunity and adversity. The GPS formula: Gift + Passion + Story creates a framework to leverage your unique experiences into purpose-driven action. Integrity and authenticity in solitude anchor long-term healing and growth. Overcoming repeated setbacks requires eliminating toxins, building structured routines, and intentionally choosing positive reflections. Community, accountability, and deliberate preparation strengthen emotional resilience and maintain personal progress. Embrace small controlled struggles (exercise, meditation, fasting, disciplined routines) to build internal strength and resistance to external pressures.

In this thought-provoking episode of Healing Mindset, host Nazish sits down with Dr. Zoa Conner, a physicist turned well-being lifestyle alchemist, to explore how science and soul intersect in modern healing. From analyzing the laws of the universe to decoding the human experience, Dr. Zoa shares how strategic well-being blends logic, intuition, and sustainability to help high-achieving women thrive—not just survive.Through deep insights into breathwork, energy balance, and lifestyle design, she explains why healing is not a luxury but a systemic recalibration of mind, body, and environment. Discover how her retreats and her book Wellness in Motion turn scientific precision into soulful practice. About the Guest: Dr. Zoa Conner is a physicist-turned-wellness strategist who helps high-performing women shift from burnout to balance through a data-driven yet deeply intuitive approach. Merging quantum logic with Ayurvedic philosophy, she leads transformative retreats and private programs that restore harmony across physical, emotional, and energetic dimensions. Her mission is to make well-being measurable, sustainable, and profoundly personal. Key Takeaways: Physics and wellness share a common language: understanding systems and how to optimize them. Strategic well-being isn’t about adding more; it’s about aligning your lifestyle with what truly works for you. True healing starts with breath—it’s the bridge between body and mind, awareness and action. Emotional release, like crying, isn’t weakness—it’s a physiological sign that the body feels safe and is beginning to heal. Simple lifestyle pattern shifts, like walking after meals, can reset digestion, mood, and energy. Sustainability is self-care: as we nurture the Earth, we nurture our own vitality. Conscious alignment includes our relationship with people, nature, and our inner environment. Transformation lasts when it’s designed with structure, accountability, and intention—not just inspiration.

On Healing Mindset with debut host Nazish (Healthy Mind By Avik™ Network), Jim Marshall outlines “Septemics”—a seven-level, mathematics-embedded framework spanning 35 scales that, he argues, map predictable shifts in human behavior, motivation, relationships, and group dynamics. Drawing on decades of client work with Socratic dialogue and biofeedback, he explains how recognizing levels can improve decision-making, reduce conflict, and clarify motives—without joining a program or hiring a facilitator. This is a direct, practical conversation about applying structured awareness to everyday choices, relationships, and leadership. About the Guest: Jim Marshall is a polymath and Human Development Engineer who developed Septemics, a system of 35 seven-level scales intended to help individuals and groups identify, measure, and improve patterns of thinking and behavior. Key Takeaways : Septemics proposes 35 seven-level scales (e.g., Motivation, Control, Relationships, Politics) meant to model how people and groups operate. Spotting someone’s level on a given scale can clarify motives and prevent costly misjudgments in hiring, dating, partnerships, or politics. The “Motivation” scale is particularly actionable: assessing others’ motives—and your motives toward them—can produce immediate insight and better boundaries. People are typically high on some scales and low on others; knowing where frictions reside helps you “tiptoe” around recurring flashpoints. Self-assessment should be private; labeling living people publicly can be counterproductive and unethical. Marshall recommends ordinary language, glossaries, and independent use—no memberships or facilitators required. Claimed speed of change comes from structured questioning and biofeedback; even so, apply discernment and consider complementary support where appropriate. Use the framework as a map, not a verdict: it informs choices; it doesn’t replace them.

In this soul-soothing episode, Nazish offers a tender reminder that peace isn’t something to chase it’s something to remember. The Art of Coming Home to Yourself is a meditation on slowing down, returning to your body, and reconnecting with the stillness that has always lived within you. Through her gentle words, Nazish guides listeners back to a place of inner safety and belonging. She reminds us that we are not broken only buried under layers of noise, expectation, and survival. This episode feels like a soft exhale, an invitation to let go of striving and rediscover the quiet truth: you are already home. What Listeners Can Learn: How to reconnect with your breath, body, and inner rhythm. Why peace is not something we find, but something we remember. The power of stillness and presence in healing and self-awareness. Simple ways to return to yourself when feeling lost or overwhelmed.

In this profoundly reflective episode, Nazish invites you to pause, breathe, and remember the sacred truth you may have forgotten that awakening isn’t about escaping life, but learning to see it clearly. Awakening in a World That’s Asleep is a poetic exploration of awareness, stillness, and the courage to wake up from the illusion of busyness and autopilot living. With warmth and compassion, Nazish guides listeners to rediscover beauty in the ordinary  the light on your skin, the rhythm of your breath, the quiet truth that surfaces when you finally stop silencing yourself. This episode is an awakening in itself: a soft, luminous call to slow down, notice, and live with presence. What Listeners Can Learn: How awakening unfolds gradually one breath, one truth at a time. Why awareness is the doorway to peace and authenticity. How to find beauty and meaning in everyday moments. The freedom that comes when you stop chasing and start being.

In this heartfelt and healing episode, Nazish offers a tender meditation on the quiet courage it takes to release what no longer aligns with your soul. When Letting Go Becomes the Greatest Act of Strength invites listeners to view release not as loss, but as liberation a return to trust, truth, and inner peace. With gentle wisdom and emotional depth, Nazish reminds us that letting go doesn’t mean we’ve failed; it means we’re finally ready to grow. Whether it’s a relationship, an old version of ourselves, or the belief that we must earn love to feel worthy, this episode helps us soften into surrender and rediscover strength in stillness. What Listeners Can Learn: Why true strength often hides in surrender, not resistance. How to honor endings as sacred beginnings. The power of trusting the unseen path ahead. How releasing control opens space for peace and healing.

Welcome, beautiful soul.Take a breath the kind that reminds your body you’re safe here. In a world that keeps telling us to go faster, to do more, to chase something next…we often forget the simplest truth: you are already home, if you can just pause long enough to feel it. Coming home to yourself isn’t about running away from life.It’s about returning, to your breath, your body, your inner rhythm.It’s remembering that you are not broken, you’re just buried under noise, expectations, and the weight of survival. Maybe you’ve spent years looking for peace in other people, places, or achievements.But peace isn’t found, it’s remembered.It’s what happens when you stop searching long enough to listen. So right now, I invite you to close your eyes, or soften your gaze, and whisper to yourself:“I am home.” Because healing doesn’t start with a plan or a book or a ritual.It starts here, with the willingness to be still, to feel, and to let that be enough. If today you’re tired, lost, or unsure of who you arelet this be the moment you come home.
