Balancing Career and Soul: Dubai's Farah on Mindfulness, Grief, and Global Empathy

Lift OneSelf -Podcast

Imagine navigating a bustling career in finance while cherishing simple joys like flowers and music. This is the life of our inspiring guest, Farah Flisher, from Dubai. Her story is not just about career shifts but is deeply rooted in human connections and cultural diversity. Farah introduces her book, which delves into the complex, cross-continental dynamics of a mother-daughter relationship, and invites us all to pause and breathe, finding peace in the present moment.
When the world feels heavy, grounding ourselves becomes essential. We tackle the emotional weight of global conflicts, exploring how yoga, workouts, and mindful practices can anchor us amidst chaos. Our conversation highlights the importance of inner work and co-regulation, urging listeners to recognize and detach from their emotional 'hooks.' By sharing personal stories and insights from those who have traversed emotional landscapes, we hope to offer solace and understanding for those grappling with intense feelings.
Grief and joy often coexist in unexpected ways. Contemplating loss, we reflect on finding meaning in tragic events, fostering enduring connections with those we've lost, and the personal growth that follows. Our discussion touches on parenting, self-reflection, and the delicate balance of protecting children while allowing them to learn resilience. To wrap up, we encourage spreading the episode's insights, sparking kindness and understanding in wider circles. You're invited to connect with us on social media and explore the services offered on our website, all while being reminded to treat yourself with gentleness.
