• Anna Sircova - Futurization
    Sep 10 2020

    Today’s guest is Anna Sircova

    Anna is a psychologist, a researcher and the head of the Board of the Time Perspective Network who also teaches courses on the Psychology of Time and Endings.

    She is currently living in Denmark but has lived across the globe, weaving together her passions to create an interdisciplinary dialogue around the concept of time.

    Today, much of Anna’s work is focused on futurization - incorporating future s thinking into present decisions and behaviour - and exploring the practical implications this could have on areas such as sustainability.

    For those that have read my book Futurize Yourself… you know that the topic futurization is very close to my heart so when I discovered that there was one person that did research on it I immediately contacted her to give a talk on TEDxVilvoorde and to be a guest on this show. and I’m super delighted that she accepted.

  • Alex Si - Be The Magician Of Your Life
    Sep 3 2020

    Today’s guest is Alex Brouard also known as Alex Si

    Alex Si is a former IT engineer who has futurized himself into being a magician-mentalist, corporate speaker, emcee of professional events, and ambassador for the McBride Magic & Mystery School (Las Vegas.)

    In his performances he uses a pure blend of science and art

    With his knowledge in neuroscience and psychology he helps participants make better decisions by avoiding the traps laid by your brain.

    And he brings that message in an inspiring, energising and wonderful way to make events more magical and the content memorable (even when online)

    I saw him at work last week and can tell he knows how to pack a punch

    You’re all probably wondering what a magician and mentalist can offer on the topic of Futures Thinking in personal development. Well let’s hear it from the man himself.

  • Natsune (NaNa) Oki - Being Yourself
    Aug 13 2020

    Today's guest today is the author of The Game of Self-Domination and host of  the Life-Up-EducationTV show Natsuné Oki from Tokyo Japan who is also known as NANA.

    NANA has built her life up from nothing multiple times - including being almost kicked out of high school but that didn’t stop her to get a degree in Business and Economics in the United States.

    Despite her young age, she’s helped dozens of CEOs and young start-up founders skyrocket their successes – all that and more while building her own online businesses on the side ForeignConnect.org.

    Underling all that NANA is passionate about inspiring others to reach their full potential and her goal is to help people reach their dreams and master their resilience in life.

    In other words NaNa is a first class Futurizer that I’m honoured to have as a guest on the show.
