The Spiritual Path That Led Big Sean to Fame and Success | Ep 55

The Mindvalley Podcast with Vishen

Fame can be a wild ride, filled with both exhilarating highs and daunting lows, and Big Sean knows this all too well. As a Multi-Platinum Recording Artist with hits that have topped charts worldwide, he opens up about the ups and downs of his journey, sharing how spirituality has been a guiding force in his life. You’ll hear about the moment he signed with Kanye West at just 18 and the whirlwind of emotions that came with it. Plus, he shares his thoughts on the art of manifestation and how what we think we want isn’t always what we truly need. 

As he opens up about his experiences, Big Sean also gets real about the importance of mental health and self-care, reminding us that taking care of ourselves should be a priority—not just something we think about when times get tough. He reflects on his relationship with his son and how he hopes to instill confidence and resilience in him so that he can hold onto his inner child.

Joining us is Marie Diamond, a Feng Shui Master, who helped Big Sean realign his space to better reflect his goals and intentions—showing how our surroundings can really change your vibe and significantly influence our success. Get ready for an episode filled with raw insights and genuine moments that can resonate with anyone navigating the challenges of fame, self-love, and the ongoing journey of personal growth.

Memorable Quotes:

"It (meditate) actually creates more time. When you get into these, whatever you want to call them, practices, rituals, daily things — it really gives you more time. It's because it gives you clarity. So the clarity will multiply the output that you are doing that you think you're accomplishing without doing it. I really, truly, I mean, I know that for a fact that these practices, these things — they multiply your amount that you do so. If you're already living your best life, I think applying some of these concepts will even heighten it more and free up more time." – Big Sean

"A cluttered environment is a cluttered mind. And so, chaos around you will create chaos in your heart, in your mind, in your life, literally. You will start attracting because we are attracting what we are, but we're also attracting what we live in." – Marie Diamond
