Let’s know what you liked and learnt! The 10 Permissions: From Stuck to Self-Directed in a Fluid WorldIn this thought-provoking conversation, author and change-maker Jillian Reilly joins Swami to explore her powerful framework — The 10 Permissions — a new rulebook for navigating today’s fluid, unpredictable world. Together, we unpack what it means to upgrade our Adult Operating System, move from I am to I can, and replace fixed plans with curiosity-driven action. Jillian reveals how giving ourselves permission — to experiment, think small, go astray, and feel our way — transforms anxiety about change into agency and adaptability. From reimagining education and parenting to rebuilding culture at work, this episode is an invitation to stop waiting for approval and start designing a life that’s responsive, alive, and truly self-directed.Order the Book: https://tenpermissions.com/Key Insights1️⃣ Permission Is the Bridge Between Intent and ActionReal change begins when we stop waiting for validation and give ourselves the authority to move.2️⃣ Update Your Adult Operating SystemBring unconscious “rules for living” into awareness — and rewrite them for today’s fast-shifting realities.3️⃣ Experiment and Think SmallProgress now comes from micro-moves and low-stakes trials, not grand five-year plans.4️⃣ Feel Your Way ForwardWhole-body intelligence — instinct, emotion, and reflection — is becoming as critical as data and logic.5️⃣ Redefine Success as RelevanceIn a fluid, AI-driven world, sustained success depends on curiosity, continual reinvention, and embodied learning.
