About Beyond the Self with Africa Brooke
Welcome to our unfiltered corner of the net, created by me, Africa Brooke. In a worldly sense, I am a globally acclaimed consultant, mentor, speaker, writer, and artist. My deepest desire with this podcast is to use my God given skills and gifts to remind us ALL of the power inherent in taking simple, consistent, and often uncomfortable steps towards personal integrity. I'm all too aware that overwhelm and societal pressures make it easy to become fixated on external influences, tiptoe around potentially sensitive issues and cross our own boundaries in the process. And this kind of environment often leads to self-sabotage. That's where Beyond the Self steps in to be your guiding light. In this house, we FOCUS ON WHAT WE CAN CONTROL. I will be using all my intellectual property, training, tools and wisdom to help you in uncovering your own blind spots and learning to tolerate discomfort so that you can rekindle curiosity, creativity, deeper and more intimate relationships, pleasure, play, and a sense of groundedness. In every episode I'll lay out encouraging insights about our shared human complexities, both messy and beautiful. I really do value a nuanced understanding and more importantly, practical, evidence-based tools and resources to help you integrate the learnings into your life. If you're looking for an uncompromising approach to personal development and life philosophy, you've found yourself in the right place. Here, we don't hold back. Welcome to Beyond the Self.

Inside a recent episode

#093 - It's the TRUTH or NOTHING: I got close to selling my soul, finding Jesus (!?), & fighting for integrity
Published 23 Feb 2026 · Transcript excerpt
[…] When it all started in 2016, I was just a girl trying to get sober and make sense of herself. So I did what I knew best. I wrote about it. I shared. I spoke. And somehow that honesty became this life I now get to live. So, what would selling my soul have looked like had this shiny project gone ahead? It would have looked like biting my tongue to keep an advertiser happy or a platform. It would have looked like having conversations I don't care about just to chase views. It would have looked like leaning into fear and scarcity and making the algorithm an idol I worship to. It would have looked like letting someone else's idea of scale dilute my message. […]
