Find Happiness and Fulfilment Through Trusting Yourself - with Adam Roa

On a Mission Podcast

The law of attraction was in full force for this one.

This week I’m On a Mission with Adam Roa, a musician, poet, filmmaker, performer, coach, speaker and influencer who has done some amazing work.

But that’s not what attracted me to him.

A random video was doing the rounds on social media which I happened to find hilarious and forwarded to a few friends, one of which recognised him as they’d worked together years ago and the rest is history!

Once I’d discovered his name there was no way I wasn’t going to get him on the podcast. The universe made sure of that!

Adam is a great guy with a unique message, we talk about his fascinating journey, what's wrong with the system and how the decision around the vaccination corrupts our creative instincts, the spiritual awakening that shaped his current outlook, and why we may be facing a much more dangerous and insidious pandemic than the one we know about...

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• When people are insecure, they can go one of two directions - they can internalise and never speak their mind, or they can overcompensate with extroversion.
• We often attach our own happiness to physical possessions, aspirations or achievements. But this practice is often a simple quick fix, a papering over of the cracks, without examining the root cause of the insecurities that have led us to this point.
• The system is not designed to encourage creativity or free expression. Instead it asks us to merely repeat back facts so that we become conditioned to be good workers and follow rules and norms set out for us by those on high.
• We are facing a much larger and more dangerous pandemic than COVID. The mental health pandemic is crushing souls and causing misery by instilling beliefs of disillusion and inferiority among people who believe that they cannot conform to society's rules.

BEST MOMENTS

'We're made to feel that "If I follow those rules and I'm not happy, then I've done something wrong, and therefore there is something wrong with me"'

'Popularity is a game to some degree'

'It's an extension of the world that I want for myself and everyone else'

'My logical mind said it would be more illogical to believe that this is all coincidence'
