Episode 13: Emotionally Intelligent Business Leader (Part 3/3)
This conversation with Ali is all about what it takes to be a business leader with a strong need (not desire) for a business model with emotional intelligence! It's also the first time that Ali talks to us about his very EQ saavy business, Mandeleo! His story of trials and triumphs has so much wisdom we can all learn from, whether we are business leaders or quite simply consumers of everyday business. In 2021, we are being urged to look at the businesses around us and to be mindf...

Episode 11: Understanding Leadership in 2021 [Part 1/3]
So, already in January 2021, the world is buzzing with conversations on leadership. And it's ABOUT TIME! Because leadership is one of the most important topics of emotional intelligence! This episode is the first of 2021 but also the 1st part of a series to come on leadership, which also happens to be shared on the inauguration of US President, Joe Biden and days after the attack on the US Senate. Ali and I ask tough questions here as we explore becoming clear on what leadership truly ...

Episode 10: Fearless Growth, 9 Steps to Egolessness
Growth, true personal growth, is a big life long fear that connects to many of our other fears - the fear of abandonment, fear of failure, fear of success and more. But as you all know by now, Ali and I are big advocates of becoming *comfortable with our fears and understanding fear*. Fear after all is our most important emotion. It is there to protect us so we can survive – but like an over-protective parent, it can also sabotage our development by making us afraid of our true potential and ...

Episode 9: Fear of Joy?
In this episode, Ali and I, who share the same birthday in October, talk about our fears of joy! While the being afraid of joy sounds counterintuitive and irrational, as you’ll see from our shared stories in childhood and beyond, the fear of joy and happiness is very much a real and profound thing. Are you also afraid or ashamed of truly feeling and receiving the kindness and joy around you, especially in the current sad climate of COVID? Is the fear of joy holding you back somehow fro...

Episode 8: Fear of Love: Fiction, Attachment, Reality
"In this episode, I'll be sharing an interesting story on how I ran into Jason Silva, the popular American-Venezuelan modern philosopher and social media speaker on Amsterdam's streets! Our conversation on the fear of abandonment led me to ask whether the fear of love has become an epidemic in our modern Western societies? Or perhaps fearful love has reached a climax since the advent of marriage for love in the Victorian period? Maybe fearful love is what Jane Austen was actually talking abou...

Episode 7: "Aggressive Mediocrity"
"Aggressive Mediocrity"! What a term right? All credit goes to the political-legal-EI genius, Ali Khan, for this one as he sits in the hot seat of being my interviewee in this episode. This is a very real and raw conversation on what it means to live a life based on 'aggressively mediocre' values! And what does it have to do with being afraid? If we don't live a life of mainstream aggressive mediocrity, then what is the alternative? Fearlessly yours, Tania and Ali ***Thi...

Episode 6: The "Integrated Mind" [Empathy Movement, Part 2]
This episode is part 2 of Ali and I's conversation on empathy during the current crises. We explore the range of our emotional reactions after a crisis has shocked millions into empathy, such as the tragic explosion in Beirut, Lebanon recently. Lebanon here stands symbolically for all the crises we face of course, one after the other. I also share a couple of intimate stories of my childhood, growing up in some explosions and warfare and the impact it has had on my career in emotional intelli...

Episode 5: The Empathy Movement [From London to Lebanon - Part 1]
Empathy for me is synonymous with fearlessness! It is after all, the 3rd pillar of emotional intelligence, according to EI expert, Daniel Goleman. So, in this episode, Ali and I explore what empathy is, what kinds of empathy can exist, and why we are feeling moved to have compassion with even far away crises these days - from the explosions in Beirut to a global pandemic. This is a moment of calling for us, friends! We are invited during crises to fearlessly develop our empathy muscle a...

Episode 4: Fearless Creating & Manifesting
In the early days of July 2020, Ali and I felt some funky low energy in the air - like some kind of invisible 'fluff' that was making people stuck. It felt as if this 'energy' was urging us to stop, to get inside of ourselves, and pay more attention to how we feel as we globally head out of COVID lockdown 1.0. What do we do or who do we become now that lockdown and its emotional turbulence are almost over? Do we return to being 'normal'? Is that even possible? This conversation between...

Episode 3: Permission to Feel, Fearlessly (COVID, BLM & Philosophy)
In this super 'intersectional' conversation, Ali and I talk about 'fearing our feelings' and the urgent call to become fearless feelers during COVID and the crises of 2020! It's almost like we've been needing 'permission to feel'. I loved making this episode while slowly coming out of COVID lockdown in London, which frankly has also felt like an 'emotional lockdown'. We have all been deeply confronted with our emotions individually and and as a society. The fears of this pandemic and t...

Episode 2: The Essence of Fear (From Wasps to 911)
In episode 2, still during COVID-19 lockdown and recording online, Ali and I dive into an unrehearsed conversation about his recent meditation, where he returns to the day 911 happened while he was in his British boarding school, and how that day affected him as a Muslim-British young man. He bravely tells details of his meditation and shows us how to reflect and observe our fears. I am so grateful to Ali for trusting me and sharing his feelings so vulnerably, unexpectedly and fearlessl...
