Not sure what to do with your life? I wasn't either, and this is the show I started to find out.
Conversations with authors, coaches, healers and people who have come through something hard. Each one comes with tools to try.
I'm Shaan. I left my job in the middle of COVID, lost, with questions and no answers. Coaching didn't exist for me, books did. So I started a podcast and asked the authors directly. Episode 1 went out on 3 March 2021.
Five mountains of life: Soul, Heart, Mind, Health and Wealth. Pick an episode. Take one thing from it and try it.
Keep Climbing.
