EP51 : How To Not Give Up & Stay True To Your Dreams
🎙"There were times I wanted to give up. But I could feel it was coming. That 'something better' was coming..." We all have dreams, right? Some are much fancier and grander than others. But whatever it is, we all have something that we all desire and want. More money, a beautiful relationship, a successful career, whatever it is, we create a picture of what we want in our ideal life...
But, as you know, life has a way of keeping us on our toes. It often throws challenges our way, but it's our ability to deal with those challenges and persist that defines our journey towards success.
Often enough, I've seen many dreams fade away and stories of what 'could have been' being told. How do we then maintain our determination and persistence by honoring our dreams?
In this week's episode, I explore the power of dreams and how to not give up when it seems that everything around us tries to hold us back! Want to know more? 🎧 Tune in to find out!

🎙"After reaching a certain level in their career, mid-career professionals may find it challenging to continue advancing..." A while ago, I had the opportunity to share my views in a National newspaper here in Dubai about the challenges faced by mid-career professionals especially through the pandemic. Having been in a corporate environment myself, I can relate to many of the issues faced by professionals when it comes to juggling the multi-layered aspects of their lives, sometimes, all at the same time!

EP46 : TAP with Karolina Soroko : How To Save A Life & Make It Extraordinary
🎙"Let it go & relax, but if you are tense, you're going down..." I'm excited to share this conversation with Swimming Coach & Author, Karolina Soroko. Karolina was born & raised in Poland. From an early age, she had dreamed about moving to the US but at the age of 19, opted for the UK instead. During her time in London, she worked in various fields which led her to eventually discover her passion. One fine day, a very special lady who was at the time a swimming instructor, inspired her to shift her career. Tied to her 9-5 working schedule & with no clear direction, it took Karolina a good year to change her mindset & eventually her life’s trajectory. She decided to become a swim instructor with a goal of setting up her own Swim Academy in London. However, not wanting to settle, she decided to make a bold move to Dubai where she has carried on teaching. Since moving to Dubai almost 4 years ago, Karolina has been teaching swimming, appeared as a panel member in events, written articles & given interviews to help people with arthritis. In 2022, she became an author when her co-authored book, ‘21 Lessons To Unlock An Extraordinary Life’ was launched. Karolina's work with adults & children alike is very significant such that what she teaches could potentially save a life! Want to know more? 🎧 Tune in to find out!

EP45 : TAP with Carmel Bondswell : The Empowering Force Of Dance & Path To Self-Love
🎙"Dance is an international language...the language of the soul, no matter where we come from, I can communicate with you."
In this week's powerful episode, I'm joined by Holistic Dance Therapist, Carmel Bondswell.
Carmel is a dance and well-being coach, teacher and choreographer from the UK, who believes in the transformative power of movement. Dancing since the age of 3, she found dance as her form of escapism from a traumatic home life. She worked hard to pursue it into a successful career, working with international artists and brands such as Adidas, Vogue Arabia, Britain's Got Talent, and the Mobo Awards Show, also choreographing a show for Dubai Expo 2020 & Journey of The Thread (a contemporary cultural Arabic performance).
Carmel continued into teaching dance and began using movement as a form of therapy during her self development journey. Her passion for mindful movement and self- development led her to create 'Home Sweet Dance', an umbrella of group dance classes, holistic coaching, talks, workshops, and masterclasses.
Her holistic teaching approach emphasizes that cultivating a mindful way of life is just as important as mastering the practice. Home Sweet Dance creates a safe and inclusive space for her students, where they can feel no judgment and are free to express themselves fully. Carmel & I connected at Jay Shetty's 'Love Rules World Tour' in Dubai recently. Call it luck, fate or the forces of the Universe at play, Carmel ended up onstage with Jay Shetty himself, and what followed became one of the turning points in her life. Want to know more?

EP44 : (5/5) Blue : The 4 Types of Human Behavior & How To Navigate Them Peacefully
🎙"Blues are analytical...they are logical & rational, & value facts & data over emotions & opinions."
In this 5th & final episode, we unearth the mysterious 'Blues'! The somewhat reserved & quiet types in the office, they can sometimes be misunderstood as being cold & challenging to work with. This is because they generally value logic & data, as described by Thomas Erickson in his book "Surrounded By Idiots." They are also risk-averse & tend to stick to protocols. However, understanding their character traits can help us work better with Blues & get the best out of our working relationship with them.
So, what are these characteristics & how do we make the best of our communication & collaboration with Blues?

EP43 : (4/5) Green : The 4 Types of Human Behavior & How To Navigate Them Peacefully
🎙"Because Greens strive to keep the peace....they may prioritize the needs of others over their own...which can lead to burnout."
In this penultimate episode of the 5-part series, I discuss the third of the four types of human behavior as highlighted in the book "Surrounded by Idiots", and that is the Green type!
Greens are generally described as analytical & knowledge-driven. They tend to prioritize the needs of others, sometimes more than their own. However, their positive traits can sometimes set them back especially when dealing with others.
Understanding what they are can potentially help us work better with Greens!
So, what are they?

EP41 : (2/5) Red : The 4 Types of Human Behavior & How To Navigate Them Peacefully
🎙"They can also be impatient, insensitive, and have a tendency to be dismissive of other people's opinions, which can make them difficult to work with."
In this 2nd episode of the multi-part series, I will cover the first of the four types of human behavior as described by Thomas Erikson, and that is the Red type! In his book, "Surrounded By Idiots : The Four Types of Human Behavior - or How to understand those who cannot be understood", Erikson paints Reds as immovable objects due to their fiery, strong-willed nature and need to be in control. We would certainly have come across many Reds in our daily lives, taking up certain roles within the office environment. However, are we doomed to accept Reds as they are or can we actually communicate, collaborate and navigate Reds peacefully? 🎧 Tune in to find out!Get closer to your inner genius with the Kamil Shah Success Academy.

EP40 : (1/5) Intro : The 4 Types of Human Behavior & How To Navigate Them Peacefully
🎙"How can someone behave differently in different situations? Surely they would be the same person in and out of the office, right?"
The 1st of a multi-part series, I will cover the subject of the different types of human behaviors as described by Thomas Erikson in his book, "Surrounded By Idiots : The Four Types of Human Behavior - or How to understand those who cannot be understood".
Erikson is an organizational consultant, trainer, and speaker, and in his book, tries to make sense of why sometimes (or for most people, all the time), we feel that we are surrounded, well, by 'idiots'!
If you're facing challenges in your workplace with a particular co-worker, boss or client, then this episode might just be able to help you unpack, understand and help you address the different so-called 'idiots' in your office! Having read the book (which I found intriguing and useful at the same time!), I will attempt to give you, over the next few episodes, a snapshot of the different types of human behaviors and how to navigate them, peacefully!
What are the 4 types of human behaviors?

EP37 : Why Creativity In The Workplace Is Important & 5 Ways To Craft It
🎙"Staggering statistics show that more than 80% of employees globally are not engaged in their jobs"
As the world gets back to the new normal with hybrid work practices, how do companies address the central issue of employees being ever more disengaged at work?
Whether working from home or from the office, 5 or 4 day work weeks, more and more employees are slowly quietly quitting.
I believe that crafting creativity in an employee's workday can help them become more engaged, focused and dare I say, passionate again about their work!
And the best part is, being creative at work does not involve creating some artwork or writing a poem.
How then can you craft creativity in your work?

While watching VJ Hilarie Burton do a few links she realized this was definitely more her vibe!
So she decided to go with Broadcast Journalism and never looked back! Priti has been working in radio and TV since she was 17. Whether it was a promotions intern for a radio station, working on stories for Diane Sawyer at ABC or running her own morning show at her college radio station, Priti always kept herself in the industry.

EP30 : TAP with Frida Bruhn : Why Perfectionism is an Illusion and How To Live A Happier Life
🎙"If you do not live your purpose and let others live it, then darkness will succeed, but we want the light to succeed in this world, right?"
In this week's deep episode, Kamil talks to Jay Shetty Certified Life Coach and Bestselling Author, Frida Bruhn.
Frida, one of the founding members of Jay Shetty Certification School, which opened its doors in March 2020, has been into acting and editing for more than 30 years.

Yet, by failing, doubting, trying, and getting up repeatedly, Frida could break vicious cycles and leave emotionally abusive relationships behind, the ones with herself- and the ones with work and her partner.
Frida recently wrote a chapter as a Co-Author alongside her Mentor Jim Britt and Kevin Harrington from Shark Tank about 'Perfectionism'. The book launch was a success and became #1 international bestseller on Amazon!
In this conversation, Frida and Kamil talk about 'Perfectionism' : what it is, how it impacts lives and powerful ways to address it.

The 4th of a multi-part series, Kamil covers the following step to finding your 'A Game'.
Pain is part of life! Yes! Unfortunately this is the truth.
However, prolonged pain should not be part of the equation. Pain gives opportunity for growth but long term pain tells us to a much deeper underlying issue.

EP21 : TAP with Abdulla Lutfi : Creating An Inclusive Society Through Art
🎙"Being on the Autism spectrum has never held me back from doing things. I am not ashamed of having Autism. It allows me to see things better. "
April is Autism Awareness month.
This week, Kamil is joined by Emirati Artist & Entrepreneur, Abdulla Lutfi.
As an artist on the Autistic spectrum, Abdulla sees and interprets the world in a unique and non-conventional way. As a “Person of Determination” his art is particularly important in its contribution to society, as it allows him to communicate a view of the world that is frequently not represented.

EP20 : TAP with Michelle Savage : Writing Your Way Through Your Story Towards The Life You Desire
🎙"You have to take action & you have to 'do' to find your way through..to know what information to gather."
In this week's powerful episode, Kamil talks to Michelle Savage; Book Editor & Author Mentor.
Michelle writes because she’s far too curious not to find out what will show up on the page, and also because the string that runs between her heart and something infinite tugs too strongly for her to ignore.
On a one-to-one basis and through retreats, Michelle works with creative entrepreneurs to develop the right message for their most inspired mission—writing everything from personal memoirs to marketing copy.
In this conversation, Michelle shares her relationship with dance - how it lit her soul on fire, crushed her more than once (sometimes literally), and showed her who’s in charge around here.
Most recently, Michelle became an International Bestselling Author when the co-authored book “Authentic : Courageous Humans Who Changed Their Lives By Rewriting Their Story” hit #1 in the Amazon charts across the globe!
