Mindfulness, Leadership and the Art of the Micro-Practice
“You’ll never change your life until you change something you do daily. The secret of your success is found in your daily routine.” – John C. Maxwell –
In this episode of the Leading in the Light Podcast I had the pleasure of speaking with good friend and corporate leadership consultant, Taruni Falconer about how we can begin to embody a mindful approach to change, transformation and habits. For several decades Taruni has been an educator, executive leadership coach, meditation teacher and expert in inter-cultural dynamics, where she has worked extensively across a number of continents bringing her own unique style and flavour of personal leadership and facilitation to help managers and leaders thrive.
Together we speak about the evolution of mindfulness and meditation approaches for expanding awareness, intuition, and insight. And we also delved into the intriguing area of ‘habit change’ and how we can all begin to create ‘micro-practices’ that engage the mind, body and spirit and that work cohesively to create transformational change from the inside out.
About Taruni Taruni is a business coach, presenter, and facilitator with a rich background in intercultural communication and leadership skills. Clients know her first and foremost as a coach and facilitator. She facilitates trainings, meetings, and complex processes, and give participants the skills to continue that work themselves.

The Art of Manifestation: How to Create What You Really Want
You are what you want to become. Why search anymore? You are a wonderful manifestation. The whole universe has come together to make your existence possible. There is nothing that is not you. The kingdom of God, the Pure Land, nirvana, happiness, and liberation are all you. ~Thich Nhat Hanh
In this episode, I speak with empowerment coach, trainer, spiritual teacher and psychic, Matu Apiata about his own personal journey in creating a successful and thriving fitness business, as well as his insights and guidance for learning how to manifest and create what we really want in our lives.
Together we explore the essence of mindset and how we can make 3 transformational shifts in our consciousness, that will enable us to create, attract and bring into form what we really desire. We’ll also look at why it’s important to connect with your deeper sense of ‘why’ and how to begin to change your inner-world, beliefs and mindset to create greater levels of abundance, happiness and fulfillment on the inside.
Inside you will also discover how our beliefs and mindset determine our capacity to receive and accept good into our lives. And why many people seem to struggle to create what they really want, and often end up settling for what is less than they are worth. We will also share insights for how you can learn to embrace ‘pre-empting’ and ‘living in aligned action’ as principles to awaken your highest good now.

It was only in later life that he would truly find a sense of peace, allowing him to answer the question “Who am I”.
Today he helps people who are seeking to understand themselves and find a better way forwards, by using a blend of transformative questioning with intuitive guidance, meshed with a with a dash of real-life experience.
In this conversation we talk about: * The power limiting beliefs have over our lives * What stops people form having the results they really want * How to move from goal-oriented consciousness to creating from within * Why it’s important to really connect with your ‘Why’ * The power of connection in creating deep relationships * The mindset of the manifestor * Getting into alignment with the things you really want * The essence of heart-felt intention * The Law of Allowance * Expanding your awareness to manifest * Creating miracles in everyday life * Pre-empting the secret to manifestation * Three keys to greater manifestation * How to take inspired action in life * Why energetic ‘discernment’ is so important in life * Living in aligned action
