Alessandra Edwards on the DNA of performance + stretching genetic limits
Beyond the shaped molecule, DNA can tell us SO much more about our genetic tendencies, existence and capabilities. Alessandra Edwards is a performance expert and keynote speaker who’s obsessed with one question: how far can we stretch our genetic limit so we can achieve our maximum potential. She specialises in high-performance, and explains why it's a sexy area to talk about. Join our conversation today as we question what DNA can tell us, how we can find it out, the different genetic types and what that means for you and my favourite, if it's written in your code, does that mean you can't change it? Be prepared to be mind blown, especially if you've never heard of using your genes/DNA as a basis for performance.

So, if you're the common denominator amongst all of your bad relationships, you either need to change your mindset or get real and finally spring clean the relationship room (eek yes I know you probably don't want to hear it)!

We have seen so many businesses and individuals rise above themselves and all expectations during this COVID era, to shake up their industries and really persevere in unique ways. I was humbled to have a chat with youngest entrepreneur we've had on the show so far, who shared her insights into not only what balance means to her, but how she stays on top of it (even amidst crazy challenges)!We do a deep dive into what challenges mean, really fleshing out the biggest one of 2020 - COVID - and how you can take these lessons and apply them to your personal lives.

MM2 Build a reputation with yourself 🤝
Are you addicted (or have been) to other people’s approval? If your answer is yes, you are not alone! BUT, to use this as a metric for how you’re doing and going, is a bit of a slippery slope! Tune in to hear why you’re far better off investing that energy into building a reputation with yourself, across the three Balance Theory areas. This will hopefully give you some tips to by-pass the crowd’s opinion, and create a self confidence that will only fail you when you allow it to.Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/thebalancetheory.

MM1 It's all about perspective
Introducing our first Monday Musings - a series brought from a thought, muse or topic of the week. Have you ever had a sudden shift in thought, which helped you reevaluate and perhaps overcome a difficult situation? Today I wanted to discuss the idea of Perspective - do you largely adopt a victim mentality or are you more opportunistic? Maybe you're one or the other, and weave in between the two. Tune in to hear my thoughts on how this is a key player in determining how you deal with adverse situations (or not!). Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/thebalancetheory. Hosted on Acast.
