Hamza Mukhtar, a university student, spoke about the controversial Dr. Jordan B. Peterson, a clinical psychologist and professor emeritus at the University of Toronto. Mukhtar, who is a second year student, was inspired by Dr. Peterson during a very challenging time in his life. During the podcast, he talks about his love of running and his passion for mountains. With 5000ers climbed in Asia and the Rome Marathon coming up in March, he is inspired by peaks about how sports can change your life.

Hamza also discusses the statements made by Jordan Peterson and how some of the disciplines he discussed have helped him grow as a person.

According to the media, Jordan Peterson is viewed as a controversial public figure who speaks the truth, and he spent fifteen years writing Maps of Meaning: The Architecture of Belief (1999; released in June 2018 as a now bestselling author-read audiobook). Maps of Meaning is a scholarly investigation into the nature of narrative and religious thought, the structure of perception, the regulation of emotion, and the motivation for atrocity in the service of ideology. Dr. Peterson also penned the popular global bestsellers Beyond Order: 12 More Rules for Life & 12 Rules for Life: An Antidote to Chaos, #1 for nonfiction in 2018 in the US, Canada, the UK, Australia, New Zealand, Sweden, the Netherlands, Brazil and Norway, both translated into some 50 languages. The latter book has sold more than five million copies; the former, released in mid 2021, 750,000.

As Valentine’s Day is approaching we had Shams a close friend on the host on the podcast. They discussed all about valentines, relationships & expectations. Valentine’s day has the notion to be filled with love, affection, red roses and everything in between. When you think of it, Valentine’s Day puts the pressure on society to find that special someone to show your love to and shower them with something special. The pressure of getting a date and romantic gestures defeats the real purpose of this day full of love and affection.This day alone has us all burdened with unrealistic expectations.Blame it on all those cheesy romance films surrounding Valentine’s Day and romance in general. These films push the idea of the perfect romantic gesture, making you rush to get every detail right or better yet make sure you have something to give your significant other.According to an article from The Atlantic, “people expect their significant others will spend more on them for Valentine’s Day than they themselves want to spend.” This implies that both men and women will expect an expensive gift from their significant other when they themselves have a limit on what they’ll gift.This idea of high expectations can cause rifts in any given relationship because society and consumerism tell us that grand gestures such as expensive gifts are necessary to show how much you love someone when that is not the case.I’m not saying that giving your significant other a nice gift for Valentine’s Day is a bad thing, but it can imply that love is only shown through materialistic items. According to the Atlantic, on average, shoppers annually spend $13 million a year on heartshaped boxes and flowers and most of the time it is because they feel obligated to buy something. Feeling obligated to purchase a gift on Valentine’s Day is due to these unrealistic expectations about this corporate holiday. Not only does this day push unrealistic expectations of extravagant gifts, there is also the pressure of having someone to spend the day with. There’s always going to be someone asking, “so how are you going to spend Valentine’s Day?” and if you are single it can be an awkward conversation to have.Consumerism and society are also to blame because plenty of commercials and television programs advertise different ways to spend Feb. 14 with a partner. A lot of time if you have ever gone out on Valentine’s Day, you are surrounded by a lot of couples, so going out by yourself is not really an option by society’s standards. It shouldn’t have to be like that, it should be a day focused on showing love.Next Valentine’s Day, do yourself a favor and focus on the love you have for your significant other or your closest friends if you’re not in a relationship.Don’t focus too much on giving the most extravagant gift on the planet, rather focus on spending time with the ones you love the most. If you are single, have a “me” day, show yourself some love and spread some love while you’re at it. Description “ANSHISM Podcast" is an independent podcast by Ansh Sachdeva.

Currently an international recruitment officer at a University in the northwest. However Rebbeca Zucker an author from the Harvard Business Review outlined in 2021 ,According to a PwC study, 83% of employers say that the shift to remote work has been successful for their company in the past year. 54% of workers say they want to continue working remotely after the pandemic. Due to the fact that workplace location is not as important as once thought, the freedom to choose when the work is done is another aspect of flexibility workers crave. 80% of workers said they would turn down a job that didn't offer flexible schedules for one that did, and 76% said they would consider staying with their current employer if they could work flexible hours.

According to a Microsoft Work Trend Report, the 9-to-5 workday is disappearing, as the increase in remote work has allowed for more flexible hours. Employees are increasingly working asynchronously, completing tasks on their own schedules, which may be different from those of their colleagues. Asynchronous work is now essential to being part of a modern, digital economy, staying competitive in the war for talent, and building a globally distributed workforce.

While the popularity of athletic footwear or “sneakers” has been widely assessed within the social media and popular culture, few studies to date have examined the influence of a specific sneaker subculture called “Sneakerheads”.

Just sharing my favourite poem with my listeners, first time that I actually read a poem.

To learn while still a child What this life is meant to be. To know it goes beyond myself It’s so much more than me.

To overcome the tragedies, To survive the hardest times. To face those moments filled with pain, And still manage to be kind.

To fight for those who can’t themselves, To always share my light. With those who wander in the dark, To love with all my might.

To still stand up with courage, Though standing on my own. To still get up and face each day, Even when I feel alone.

To try to understand the ones That no one cares to know. And make them feel some value When the world has let them go.

To be an anchor, strong and true, That person loyal to the end. To be a constant source of hope To my family and my friends.

To live a life of decency, To share my heart and soul. To always say I’m sorry When I’ve harmed both friend and foe.

To be proud of whom I’ve tried to be, And this life I chose to live. To make the most of every day By giving all I have to give.

To me that’s what this life should be, To me that’s what it’s for. To take what God has given me And make it so much more.

To live a life that matters, To be someone of great worth. To love and to be loved in return And make my mark on Earth.

Craig Henderson, 35 a hair professionals from Bolton, A prospect (Volunteer) for the Lions Barber collective. He has been a hair professional for over 15 years & believes that the power of the stylist chair should never be underestimated. In the UK, men are three times more likely to take their own lives than women. On average, 12 men in the British isles take their own lives every day.

On this podcast he talks about Men’s Mental Health & the stigmas they face.   Statistics show Suicide is the single biggest killer of men under 45. Yet, it’s not just young men that are at risk, as the highest suicide rate is for men aged 45-49 in the UK.  There are many factors that make men more vulnerable to suicide. Men are often under pressure to appear strong and not show signs of weakness. This means they are less likely to talk about any issues they are facing or seek help when they are struggling with their mental health. Sometimes pride comes into the equation and men may think they can handle their issues on their own or worry about being a burden to others. Men are also more likely to respond to stress with risky behaviour such as abusing alcohol which increases the risk of suicide by up to eight times. A relationship breakdown has a bigger impact on a man’s suicide risk, than a woman’s – divorced men are three times more likely to commit suicide than their married peers, whereas divorced women show no increased risk. Warning signs to look out for in your friends, family or co-workers include: * Talking about wanting to die * Withdrawing or feeling isolated * Talking about being a burden to others * Experiencing extreme mood swings * Drug or alcohol misuse * Feelings of anger, hopelessness or disconnection * Giving away possessions * Giving up previously loved activities * Writing goodbye letters. https://www.samaritans.org/how-we-can-help/contact-samaritan/

Alejandra A.K.A Alex is a Neuroscience and Psychology graduate Internationally published model. In this podcast she talks about how Social media can negatively affect body image because users are typically exposed to thin, fit, and "idealized" body types and will often compare themselves to peers and celebrities. Pictures on social media, many of which are altered, play a role in how one seeks validation, often finding our worth by how many “likes” and comments we receive. I have worked with individuals that have used this to decide if they were going to eat that day or not. Selfies on social media can potentially send a message that our beauty determines our worth and our body, a message of which many with an eating disorder struggle.

Sarah was reported missing at the start of March after walking home from a friend’s house in Clapham. She left her friend at around 9pm, on a route down well-lit streets, but never made it home. For Sarah, and all the other people who’ve faced violence, we wanted to have a conversation, Providing a forum to discuss what needs to be done. We want everyone to be able to walk the streets without fear and be at home without fear. Safety and protection is important, but we need to focus on the cause and preventing the violence and abuse.

Over the last few years, the United Kingdom has seen Islamophobia rise at a disturbing rate. Laila Hassan is an activist from Stand Up To Racism based in Bolton,Greater Manchetser. She talks about the raising issues of hate crime specially towards Muslims in the UK and the world .She also talks about how politicians use the name of Islam defame it and spread hate and division for their own benefit. “The United Kingdom has more than 3.4 million Muslim residents, making up almost 5 percent of its overall population. Even decades later, British anti-racist legislation is inadequate for dealing with the targeting of Muslims by far-right groups using subtler forms of prejudice and discrimination. For example, prominent columnists at major platforms have written articles calling Islamophobia a fiction, arguing that there isn’t nearly enough Islamophobia within the Tory party, or ominously asking, “What will we do about the Muslim problem then?” They’ve faced negligible professional fallout or loss of respectability, something that is hard to imagine if the target were another group. Before he was prime minister, Boris Johnson even compared women in burqas to “letterboxes” and “bank robbers.” Despite Islamophobic incidents reportedly jumping by 375 percent in the week following his comments, an internal inquiry by the Conservatives found them to be “respectful and tolerant - Article By BY MOHAMMAD ZAHEER | Foreign Policy .

Matthew Billington recalled when he entered the 4th year as a dental student at King's College London, He soon discovered that being elected President of the KCL Dental Society came with its fair share of problems. After engaging with Presidents from other dental schools ,He soon discovered that nearly every new President of a university society is in the same boat, re-creating the wheel, each and every year."

The Society® app made its debut at King's College London with the President of KCL Dental Society deciding to revolutionize the way that its society was run. He originally came up with the idea of an app to have a profound and positive impact on committees and society members. Helping committees to save time through automating event management, certificates, ticketing/e- tickets for events, whilst having the committee displayed and available for all members to directly contact through the chat. A great way to interconnect all the societies in a university.

Matthew explained, “As years go by, we are finding Facebook is becoming increasingly outdated, seeing a progressive decline in engagement with university students. Society® is a fresh new app available for all of us to use, evolving new levels of engagement.”

With popular event booking platforms such as Eventbrite and Fatsoma, having high transaction fees, Matthew also wanted to create a platform with the lowest possible ticket transaction fees for students, whilst remaining free for free events.

Matthew continues, “We now have a university society platform which allows everyone to engage in multiple societies and events are all in one place. No more lost links on WhatsApp chat groups!”

That's why he decided to create a free, all-in-one app, to increase engagement and productivity for all Presidents and Committees of student societies. The idea: to save time for committees while connecting students on a whole new level. His vision is to automate, digitize and revolutionize university societies and college clubs, groups is definitely the Future to more students engagement & a greater student experience.
