Luca Allam
About this episode

Welcome to a special bonus episode of Luca’s Insight Track. In this 'Off Track' edition, inspired by my conversation with Lana Medawar, I talk about the challenges of overcoming major childhood trauma during times of war - but also how children’s imagination and the power of the mind through self healing, can overcome some of the hardest challenges you will ever face.

Inspired from an incredible episode with Lana, we look back on powerful insights learned from certain questions, ‘mind over matter or never mind the matter?’ and ‘be in conflict but challenged or at peace but uninspired?’ The insights center around the importance of having complete peace inside through removing all your limiting beliefs, but to actually then seek conflict, as that in Lana’s words, is the ‘food for the soul.’ Lana’s story and message is powerful - growing under occupation can leave kids traumatized for life, but if you allow yourself the opportunity to heal from within, and to go on a real journey of self discovery, you can then be the one that turns your internal trauma into powerful inspiring stories that others that can benefit.

In this unfiltered, improvised, and off-scripted episode, I share my personal insights that have and continue to shape who I am. Tune in now for a raw and thought-inspired conversation on Off Track!
