🎙 About The Episode

‘There is no growth without struggle, painful experiences are why we change and difficulty is how we grow’. Dr. Aria is a clinical psychologist and one of the UK’s leading performance coaches who specialises in psychological resilience. He’s worked with Academy Award winners, high profile creative artists, global entrepreneurs and some of the world’s most successful CEOs coaching them on mindset, resilience, and mindfulness. Dr. Aria is also co-author of the best-selling book A Mindful Year, contributing author to the academic textbook A Prescription for Healthy Living, and is regularly featured in mainstream lifestyle and news publications such as The Times, The Telegraph and Men’s Health. This conversation is really quite something. Dr Aria has been on an incredibly life changing journey and in this episode he’s here to talk about that journey and share what he’s learned about our life quest and finding our truth, the importance of struggle in growth, the power of vulnerability and how to build greater resilience. A lot of this conversation gave me goosebumps, and I can guarantee it’ll make you reconsider your approach to finding happiness and fulfilment. I hope you enjoy the episode as much as I did 🙂
