    Expanding Beyond the Workplace: Creating A Better World

    Expanding Beyond the Workplace: Creating A Better World

    In this episode of the Demystifying Diversity Podcast, host Daralyse Lyons examines the role of diversity beyond the workplace and takes a deep dive into how issues of DEIAB impact our abilities to achieve what we want and need. Using Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs as a framework, Daralyse and her guest experts extrapolate about the importance of the different levels of human need and fulfillment, and share how factors like intersectionality of identity, bias, and socioeconomics either enable or limit people's ability to create happiness in their lives.

    In this episode, you will learn about:

    * Maslow's Hierarchy of needs, and how need-fulfillment is innately important to the human experience, regardless of identity.

    * How the intersectionality of one's identity and lived experiences help dictate their ability to realize their needs within Maslow's Hierarchy.

    * How our fears get in the way of us realizing our needs, let alone our desires.

    * How past experiences are informative, but do not ultimately dictate future outcomes when it comes to getting our needs met.

    * The role that individuals can play in supporting others in ascending the levels of Maslow's Hierarchy of needs.

    * The difference between wants and needs, and how most people ultimately want to be happy.

    Maslow und das fehlende Fundament

    Maslow und das fehlende Fundament
    Kann es echte Selbstverwirklichung geben, wo sich Selbstverständlichkeit breit macht? Die Wahrnehmung und das Schätzen der Möglichkeit, grundlegende Bedürfnisse zu befriedigen, ist wahrscheinlich nicht nur die (massiv unterschätzte) Voraussetzung für Selbstverwirklichung. Gleichzeitig ist sie auch die Grundlage für kollektive, gesellschaftliche Verantwortung.

    Exploring Person-Centered Models

    Exploring Person-Centered Models

    Humanistic Psychology emerged as the third aspect of psychology in the 1950’s emerging in response to Psychoanalysis in Europe and Behaviorism in the West. We discuss the great minds of Abraham Maslow, Carl Rogers and others with their contribution to psychology. In this episode, we discuss these major concepts:

    • Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs
    • A person-centered therapy
    • Exploring how to embrace unconditional positive regard for patients and clients
    • Peak experiences

    #38 - Human Design - Die Wurzel

    #38 - Human Design - Die Wurzel

    Im irdischen Dasein gibt es immer Notwendigkeiten, um die man sich kümmern muss, Tag für Tag. Dies sind die Grundlagen des Lebens, die untersten Stufen der Maslow'schen Pyramide. In unserer modernen Gesellschaft sind diese Grundbedürfnisse nicht mehr so direkt sichtbar, aber sie sind nach wie vor ein elementarer Bestandteil unseres Lebens. Die Gefährdung dieser Bedürfnisse ist heute subtiler als früher. Aber egal, ob man nicht weiss, wo man Brennholz herbekommt oder wie man die Heizkostenabrechnung bezahlen soll, die körperliche Reaktion bleibt dieselbe: Adrenalin und Stress. Gelegentlicher Stress gehört zum Leben. Er treibt uns an. Aber Dauerstress ist extrem ungesund und sollte unbedingt vermieden werden.

    Das Wurzelzentrum im Human Design ist mit den Nebennieren verbunden, die das Stresshormon Adrenalin produzieren. Die Wurzel ist ein Zentrum, das schubweise enorme Energie bereitstellen kann, um das akute Überleben zu sichern. Es ist ein Motor ohne Bewusstsein, der rohe Energie zur Verfügung stellt. Ob Deine Wurzel definiert oder offen ist, sagt Dir, wie Du am besten mit der Energie und den Qualitäten dieses Zentrums umgehen kannst. Komm mit und lass uns gemeinsam entdecken, welche spannenden Qualitäten dieses Zentrum für uns bereithält.

    Ego Unraveled - Exploring the True Nature of Self in Psychology

    Unravel the complexities of the ego in psychology with "Information for Life" as we explore its true nature, debunk misconceptions, and reveal the essential role it plays in our lives.

    Do You Fear Your Own Power?

    Do You Fear Your Own Power?

    In order to actualize our purpose to the fullest extent possible, we must first find the courage to claim our power. But so many of us fear our own power. We keep our power at a distance in hopes of conforming or fitting in with outside expectations, as a means of self-protection (blending in is the safest bet in a judgmental world), in order to maintain a sense of control, to attain outside approval, and so on. 

    Some of us fear our power because we've come to associate "power" with its ego-driven, hierarchical, and opportunistic counterpart of force. In this episode, we explore the differences between power and force and examine ways we can reclaim our power in a steady, heart-centered way so that we can more fully actualize our purpose.

    "When I dare to be powerful, to use my strength in service of my vision, it becomes less and less important whether I am afraid."

    Two words can make all the difference in being the best leader possible and maximizing your team's productivity. The two words are listening and motivation. When you practice active listening and know the motivation behind every team member, you can catapult your business to growth potential you didn't even think was possible.

    Pulling from Amazon's Leadership Principles, Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs, and McClelland's Human Motivation Theory, I break down how you can triangulate the most effective path to evolving yourself into the best leader you can be while developing your team to be more productive, driven, motivated, accountable, and successful while simultaneously creating a dynamic culture that retains your employees and accelerates your business success sustainably.

    Amazing Analogies - The Cute Little Sister of Storytelling  #125
    If like me you enjoy explaining complex things in a way that people instantly understand what you are trying to tell them, then you might want to risk falling in love. Falling in love, with analogies. Because analogies to my mind are the little sister - the cute little sister - of storyteling. In this episode I share with you the 6S's of successful analogies. 

    Taking Stock in Your Energy Investments

    Taking Stock in Your Energy Investments

    Most things and instances in our lives can be separated into two categories:
    1. Those that charge your batteries, that fill you up and energize you
    2. Those that drain or negatively affect your energy

    When was the last time you stepped back to take a bird's eye view of where you were directing your energy - directing your focus?
    It is so important to realize that every single thing that we experience has the ability to shape us in some way, and if we aren't careful, our subconscious thoughts can be conditioned and manipulated without us even realizing it.

    If you are going through burnout, find yourself feeling energetically drained (and caffeine is not what is going to do the trick), or want to supercharge your environment to serve you best, grab a pen and paper or get ready to take some notes!

    Psychology Hack To Stop Caring What Others Think of You

    Psychology Hack To Stop Caring What Others Think of You

    This is probably one of the most IMPORTANT concepts that you need to hear if you are ready to uplevel your life!

    We are exploring WHY - instinctually, we care so much about what other people think of us, and HOW we can stop letting it get in our way.
    Plus, I am ending our session today with some step-by-step coaching tips on you can break these questions down for yourself!

    ** This is a special episode because I am giving you a sneak peek into some of the specific questions and thought processes that have been MOST SUCCESSFUL in my practice thus far.

    Here are just a few of the questions you'll have answers to by the end of today's session.

    • Why do we have internal arguments or battles with ourselves when we are trying to grow out of our comfort zone or do something new?
    •  Why do we limit our own progress over the fear of something someone else might say?
    • Why does simply 'not wanting to care' not enough?

    I'm using a tool from one of the most well-known psychologists of our time, Abraham Maslow, coupling this information with what we know about the evolution of our brains, what we know about the evolution of our society, and how we can use this information to STOP letting the fear of what others think of us get in our way of meeting our potential.

    A summary of the 5 layers of Maslow's Theory:

    1. Biological and Physiological Needs(the base/bottom level)
    2. Safety Needs
    3. Belongingness and Love Needs
    4. Esteem Needs *
    5. Self-Actualization

    *Being able to understand and recognize our "Esteem Needs" is key.
    Remember, there are two elements of Esteem:  Self-esteem and Self-respect. Furthermore, self-esteem has an additional 2 subcategories to explore.
    And this is where we find our answer... this is where we look to be able to successfully STOP caring about WHAT other people think of us.

    Literature mentioned in  today's session for further reading:

    • A Theory of Human Motivation is the original 1943 paper written by Maslow. 
    • Motivation and Personality is the follow-up book written by Maslow in which he explains the 5 Rializable Needs, and how he theorizes we are able to move upward through the levels.

    Episode 80 Maslow's Sailboat

    Episode 80 Maslow's Sailboat

    Hello and welcome back to the podcast. I was listening to something this week about Maslow's hierarchy of needs. You may remember this from school or reading. It’s basically a pyramid where one need has to be met before you are motivated and are able to address the next level up the pyramid. The most basic needs, at the bottom of the pyramid are physical like shelter and food. Then the next higher is safety and security. Above that is love and belonging, then the next up is esteem and respect. Then at the very top of the pyramid is self-actualization the need to realize your potential and grow. The basic idea was that if you haven't the needs at the bottom of the pyramid you don’t have the capacity to address the needs higher up.

    I was interested to hear recently that Maslow didn't actually come up with the pyramid, but that it  was an idea was based on his writings. And since then still also reimagined this idea of a pyramid. And one that I liked and thought was especially fitting for financial planning is envisioning these needs as a sailboat rather than a pyramid.

    In the sailboat version, life as a voyage on a vast ocean full of opportunities for meaning and discovery, but also danger and uncertainty. In order to stay afloat and keep from drowning you need a boat. A boat without a sail will keep you out of the water but you’re not going anywhere. You’re just bobbing along where the ocean takes you. The hull of the boat represents safety and security. The sail represents growth with the needs of exploration, love, and purpose. Exploration is the desire to seek out and make sense of new, challenging, and unpredictable events despite the pressure that comes with it. Love basically means the desire to feel connected and love with others. Purpose represents the continual pursuit of goals.

    I really love about this idea of the sailboat with the hull providing all the safety, security and basic needs and the sail providing the things that really bring personal meaning to our lives. You can survive working and saving solely to build the boat’s hull. Yes the security the boat’s hull provides is critical. It doesn’t matter much much how you feel about love, exploring, and purpose if you boat is sinking and your surrounded by sharks. On the other hand, spending all your energy only focusing on that physical security, safe but adrift at sea isn’t much of a life either.

    That’s why I love approaching financial planning as a sail boat. Absolutely, we need to make sure your money keeps you and your family alive, safe, and cared for at every stage of life. That’s essentially a life raft. But how much better is it to plan and build a sail boat? Where do you want your sail to take you? Your exploration, love, and purpose should guide your journey and be the blue print for the ship you build. That’s the part of financial planning I love. Listening and teasing out what kind of life journey you want. What are your needs for exploration, love, and purpose in your life? We’ll definitely make sure you have a safe and secure boat. But let’s get past just the lifeboat and help you use what you have to build the sailboat and navigate the life you want.

    I hope todays’s podcast has helped you look past just the dollars and spreadsheets of building your best life you. And helped you think about your sailboat and the journey you want it to take you on.

    Our Needs As Maslow Saw Them

    Our Needs As Maslow Saw Them

    In this episode Julia Bright introduces the six pillars of the Humanly Genius Project, which are overlapping and by integrating the knowledge they give us, we can become strong, fulfilled self-assured people.

    These pillars are first and foremost all forms of Human Rights, then assertive and non-violent communication, interdisciplinary scientific approach, Big History Project, levels of needs and motivation, and Positive psychology. They will create the foundation for an all encompassing wisdom.
    In this episode we pay tribute to Abraham Harold Maslow who provided not one but two pillars to our project. His creative mind will not just enrich our lives but will give us the wisdom to decide what is necessary and what is not in life.

    Abraham Maslow’s one creative idea is the hierarchy of needs and motivation and the other is his lifetime work in a subfield he called Humanistic psychology that was later on the precursor of positive psychology.
    You will hear about his life, about his struggles in life as well as his work achievements. He wasn't just a psychologist, he was a real person too!
    Then Julia will give you details about the hierarchy of needs, all the stages and what they all mean for our motivation. 
    It is so important to be aware of these needs to be able to consciously transfer our lives when changes are inevitable, like when we go to university, get a new job, we become spouses, parents, our schedule and lifestyle changes or turns upside down.
    We can also detect it easier when we or others need help when anxiety or depression sets in. 
    Sometimes we sacrifice our needs to get something that we desire. Other times we do that so we can give more to other people. Neither is healthy. Needs are such that are necessary to be taken care of otherwise we will not be complete. This is why Maslow's theory is so far reaching and practical in our everyday lives!
    The podcast is recommended to non-native English speakers as well, as it is clearly spoken and easy to follow.
