On The Healing Mindset, host Nazish sits down with private investigator and cybersecurity expert Robert Siciliano to explore why modern safety is not just technical. It is emotional. Robert explains how scams, identity theft, and online threats impact our nervous system, trust, and daily peace of mind.

This episode is for anyone who feels low-level stress about being hacked, manipulated, or exposed online, even if nothing has happened yet. You will learn how to shift from denial and fear into calm, practical protection that feels like self-care.

Robert Siciliano is a private investigator, certified speaking professional, bestselling author, and CEO of Protect Now LLC. He is a longtime expert on cybercrime and identity theft, featured across major TV, radio, and media outlets.

• Treat safety as a foundation, like sleep and nourishment, not an afterthought

• Replace denial with simple systems that reduce daily risk

• Use a password manager to create unique, strong passwords automatically

• Build “security appreciation” so protection feels personal and motivating

• Choose empowerment over shame-based training or fear-based advice

• Take one small step today to feel 10% safer, not perfect

In this episode of Healing Mindset, host Saima sits down with Camilla Calberg to unpack emotional intelligence in the moments that actually test you: conflict, pressure, leadership, and personal chaos.

This conversation is for high-performing leaders (especially women) who are respected on the outside but quietly exhausted inside. You will learn how to separate who you are from what you feel, spot body signals that reveal stress, and build real regulation so you can stay present, set boundaries, and lead with steady authority.

Camilla Calberg has led major transformations at global companies including BP, Shell, and IBM. She now supports high-performing women leaders through authentic leadership and nervous system regulation.

• Practice: “I feel anxious” not “I am anxious” to reset faster

• Stop handing power to titles, keep respect without self-erasing

• Watch body cues: jaw tension, shoulder tightness, chest pressure, stomach knots

• Go into conflict to serve, not to win

• Use a daily 90-second check-in: feel it, locate it, name what you need

• Build boundaries through empathy, not emotional absorption

Rich Ashton spent 45 years owning small businesses and built an internal leadership training program that helped him retire and leave the company in the hands of leaders he developed. He’s the author of Growing Your Own: A State of Practical Guide for Developing Leaders in Small Businesses.

• Defuse customer conflicts by listening first and taking money off the table
