In a world that continues to evolve, this episode remains a heartfelt and timely exploration of men’s mental health, emotional expression, and redefining purpose. Simon shares his deeply personal story of transformation — from furloughed father during the COVID-19 pandemic to certified Rapid Transformational Therapy® (RTT®) therapist — and how that unexpected career pivot became a gateway to healing, connection, and clarity.

Though recorded in 2021, Simon’s reflections resonate just as strongly today. In 2025, the global conversation around masculinity, emotional wellbeing, and mental health support for men is finally gaining traction — and this episode speaks directly to that cultural shift.

Simon opens up about how being furloughed from his job in the tourism industry gave him the space to reflect, reset, and pursue something that had always interested him: how the mind works. An ad for RTT® appeared (as if Facebook really was listening), and that spark led to a life-changing path — one where he not only helped others but began to understand himself on a deeper level.

We also discuss the innovative yet accessible tool he created: Jam Jars of Joy — a set of 21 motivational quotes designed to support daily mindset shifts and rooted in the same neuroplasticity principles that underpin RTT®. This low-tech, high-impact ritual became a way for Simon and his son to start each day with intention, reflection, and open conversation — something we now recognize in 2025 as essential for mental health at every age.

You’ll hear about:

• Why therapy needs more male voices
• How RTT® empowers people to rewire the subconscious and reclaim their story
• The cultural myth that men shouldn’t talk — and why that needs to end
• Why different perspectives, beliefs, and identities are what make human connection powerful
• And how sci-fi analogies help us reimagine mental health in creative, relatable ways

This conversation reminds us that even years later, the core truths about growth, healing, and being heard don’t expire. As Simon says: “You’re not lost. You just don’t know where you are yet.”

In this deeply personal episode of Eternal Paradigm, Milesh L shares his journey through a life-altering health crisis that became the catalyst for profound change.

After years working in finance and property investment, Milesh faced an unexpected and severe health scare—gallstone pancreatitis—that led to a five-month hospital stay away from his young family. This episode explores how he navigated physical pain, emotional struggle, and uncertainty, and how these experiences sparked a vital shift in his priorities and life direction.

Milesh opens up about the signs he initially missed, the moment he realised the severity of his condition, and the raw reality of being separated from his wife and children during hospitalisation. He reflects on how this forced pause gave him clarity about burnout, health, and the need to redesign his life with intention.

Beyond the health crisis, Milesh discusses the power of strategic planning and the invaluable support of his family in overcoming adversity. He also shares how his corporate experience in strategy helped him stay resilient during the COVID-19 pandemic, demonstrating the importance of adaptability and forward planning in both personal and business life.

This episode offers listeners an inspiring story of courage, resilience, and transformation, with practical insights for anyone facing health challenges, burnout, or life transitions.

Key Moments and Insights:

• Early Missed Signs: Initially mistaking heartburn for something minor, Milesh didn’t anticipate the severity of his symptoms until hospitalisation was unavoidable.
• Sudden Hospitalisation: Taken by ambulance with no prior warning, he spent five months in hospital, a period marked by physical pain and emotional challenge.
• Separation from Family: Being away from his wife and very young children during this critical time added emotional strain and highlighted the importance of family support.
• Diagnosis and Recovery: Facing gallstone pancreatitis and uncertain outcomes, Milesh underwent critical care, including a moment when sedation was a 50-50 chance.
• The Trigger for Change: The real turning point came once recovery began—the realisation that life needed to be lived differently, prioritising health and family over career ambition.
• Reflection on Burnout: Recognising he had been “driving fast without a destination,” Milesh saw the health crisis as a wake-up call against burnout and unchecked ambition.
• The Role of Support: His wife’s strength and his family’s support were crucial to his recovery and motivated his determination to change.
• Strategic Life Planning: Drawing from his corporate experience, Milesh established a clear, long-term life and financial plan, helping to r
