The Cost of Self-Actualisation | Mikai McDermott on Failure, Legacy & Living in Alignment

Season 1 · Episode 10

Monday, September 1, 2025 • Duration 34:24

In this solo episode, I share an honest reflection on what it really takes to pursue self-actualisation, the daily choice to live in alignment rather than settle for a life that only looks good on paper. From early career failures and risky pivots to saying no to misaligned opportunities, I explore the costs, rewards, and discipline required to build with intention.

I talk about protecting your reputation, surrounding yourself with the right people, and learning when to walk away from what no longer serves you. I also open up about overworking, navigating chronic illness, and redefining success beyond money and social validation.

Self-actualisation isn’t a final destination but a practice of courage, self-trust, and daily recommitment to becoming more of yourself. If you’re in a season of transition, craving purpose, or questioning what legacy you want to leave behind, this episode is for you.

Mikai McDermott on Building Confidence Through Personal Style

Season 1 · Episode 4

Monday, July 21, 2025 • Duration 32:02

In this solo episode, I explore the connection between style and confidence, drawing from my own personal journey.

Confidence doesn’t appear overnight, it’s something we develop over time through practice and self-awareness.
