    Pacing over Perfection and Examining our Relationship with Time with Amina Altai

    It's hard to walk away from a conversation with this week's guest on LOOKING UP and not feel empowered, inspired, and like asking yourself what your exceptional ability could be? Holistic Leadership and Mindset Coach Amina Altai is here! She shares with us her unorthodox journey into coaching, nutrition, movement, and mindfulness and the life-altering decisions she had to make in her late twenties when a doctor discovered 2 autoimmune diseases that could bring on multiple organ failure and how she shifted her career, her personal life, and her mindset to find fulfillment and joy in her new path. Amina also opened up about how going through the pandemic with a traumatic brain injury helped her hone in on her purpose, how she changed her relationship with time, broke down the myth around balance and not having it all, and we examined what showing up to our jobs, families, partners, and lives with integrity looks like. We talk through how the pandemic has affected women and how we can find empowerment in choosing to set a ball down instead of feeling like we're always about to drop one.

    On Decision Making, COVID19, and Parenting with Professor Emily Oster

    Three-time best-selling author, professor of Economics at Brown,  data scientist, parenting advocate, and mother- this week's guest on LOOKING UP couldn't be more relevant, it's Professor Emily Oster. My first experience with her was through a podcast recommendation from my husband, and since then, I have been a HUGE fan of her work. Seriously, her books changed my life throughout my pregnancy, and parenting journey. I was so excited to sit down with her and talk about what this pandemic has been like for her, how making decisions affect our mental health, and to talk about her controversial article in the Atlantic. Insightful and so down to earth, Emily shared about the biggest parenting and child development myths she discovered while writing her books (Expecting Better, Cribsheet, and the Family Firm), who and what sources she goes to for trustworthy information, how to make decisions when there are so many options available to us, what her journey from concerned parent to trusted COVID19 expert was like, and how she recommends going about writing a family mission statement. There is so much practical parenting wisdom she drops throughout our talk, I highly recommend grabbing a pen and some paper and taking some notes!    To purchase your own THINGS ARE LOOKING UP Optimism Deck of Cards please visit ThingsAreLookingUp.co For more BTS footage of this episode and any others follow @drdeepikachopra + @allthingsarelookingup Guest Details: @profemilyoster   Photo credit: Rachel Hulin The Book That Changed The Way Emily Lives Her Life: Taking Charge of Your Fertility by Toni Weschler.

    Facing Climate Change and Finding Optimism in the Amazon with Pedro Andrade

    It's not every day you get the opportunity to talk to someone who has been held hostage by an indigenous Amazonian tribe and lived to tell the tale, but lucky for us and for him, today is that day! My guest on this week's episode of Looking Up is Pedro Andrade. TV host, activist, journalist, and storyteller, he brings so much to today's conversation. We talk through his new show Unknown Amazon, what growing up in Brazil was like, knowing from a young age what he wanted out of life, and all the steps and work he put in to get there. He views optimism as a muscle that must be strengthened and shares stories with us that perfectly encapsulate the most important aspect of resiliency- our human connections.    His love of travel and the way he finds a human side to every story makes his insights on wellness, how we view setbacks, and the ever-evolving climate crisis something we can all relate to. Pedro doesn't believe in shortcuts or that getting what we want can be found through magic moments, but instead speaks profoundly about the work we must do to see what we feel passionate about become reality. He's honest with us about finding empathy through the most extreme circumstances, dealing with PTSD, and how this show changed his life. There is so much to learn from his wise words, please enjoy this episode of LOOKING UP.   To purchase your own THINGS ARE LOOKING UP Optimism Deck of Cards please visit ThingsAreLookingUp.co For more BTS footage of this episode and any others follow @drdeepikachopra + @allthingsarelookingup Guest Details: @pedroandradetv Books That Have Changed The Way Pedro Lives His Life:  the Adventures of TinTin by Hergé, Just Kids by Patti Smith, and the Silk Roads + the New Silk Roads by Peter Frankopan.   Produced by Dear Media.

    Facing Your Fears, the Power of Perspective, + Why We Self-Sabotage with Monica Berg

    "You have to create your to-be list before your to-do list," our guest on this week's episode of Looking Up, Monica Berg says. Inspiring, thoughtful, wise, and fearless, this week's conversation is all about what we spend our energy on, facing our fears, and how powerful mindset shifts can be. Monica has such a way with words, and she expertly walked us through the different types of stress, how we can't control our situations but we can control our perceptions of them, and how we stay fully present when things are good- all topics that intersect with my research and work as the Optimism Doctor. Her insights on change, loss, growth, fear, and her riding shotgun analogy all make this an episode you're not going to want to miss a second of!   We got pretty candid about being more fully present in moments of joy, the important lessons change can bring us throughout life, and dove into what it actually means to face our fears head-on. I was inspired, uplifted, challenged, and championed through this conversation and I cannot wait to hear what you've learned from her! Enjoy this episode and remember, Things Are Looking Up!
