Ryan Pinnick joins Rob in this episode to discuss his past trauma as well as his beliefs and philosophies. This is an experimental episode of Disruptors, full of raw, philosophical and authentic content, not to be missed! Ryan is the CEO of SuperGenius and has a tremendous passion for applying Superconsciousness in Life Mastery and Entrepreneurship.   Born in Cape Town, South Africa he moved to London in 2000 as an electrical engineer. Having had a traumatic childhood as a result of his abusive alcoholic father and sexual violence as a young adult, he failed to deal with the challenges he faced and he tried to suppress his demons with alcoholism and recreational drug addiction. At 26 he started his recovery and healing which lead him to the world of personal development entrepreneurship.  During that journey he was introduced to what he now calls Superconsciousness and this was for him the key to creating a life beyond his wildest dreams.   KEY TAKEAWAYS Rob has been really keen to talk to Ryan about the paradox of trauma. Trauma can ruin a person, yet if you look at almost every successful person alive they have had to deal with adversities and trauma to become successful. You can put people under pressure but if they don’t have the right tools to deal with it they will break and suffer. Ryan is a great believer of support systems; he believes they can help any person deal with the difficulties and challenges we have to face in life. A polarising view Ryan holds, is that you attract everything in your human life, good or bad. We all have a sequence of steps to self-sabotage ourselves subconsciously, we have to become conscious to become true masters in our own lives or we will continue to repeat the same behaviour again and again. Ryan has had to deal with a lot of trauma in his life, he is incredibly brave to be so open about the extreme difficulties he has had to face and to then use it to inspire others is incredible. One thing you can do to help yourself overcome yourself, is to find people you aspire to be like. We all have emotions that come to the surface preventing us to be ourselves. Podcasting, like all forms of content creation entails putting yourself out there. But you will learn from the mistakes, the embarrassing moments more than you will from the ‘good’ content; the bad times will be the stories you tell. Ultimately shame is what we fear other people will think about us. Through criticisms and negative feedback we get given an opportunity, to evaluate and decide whether to change what it is we are doing.   BEST MOMENTS “I would not be who I am today if I had not experienced that trauma” “Until you make the unconscious conscious, it will direct your life and you will call it fate” “You can channel trauma into greatness” “With awareness comes healing” “I’m going to take responsibility for my reality, even if something happened to me or someone happened to me”   VALUABLE RESOURCES https://robmoore.com/ bit.ly/Robsupporter   https://robmoore.com/podbooks  rob.team  ABOUT THE HOST Rob Moore is an author of 9 business books, 5 UK bestsellers, holds 3 world records for public speaking, entrepreneur, property investor, and property educator.
