Welcome to Episode 13 of the Basha Effect, in which I share my thoughts and feelings about life and meaning while cruising my Ferrari on a beautiful, sunny day.  My name is Izhar Basha and I am your host.

This episode is a candid talk about the realities of life and what we should truly value.  It’s a little ironic having this talk while cruising around in my car, but to me, it’s the best time to have reality checks and identify key points to maintain humility.

Hard work, perseverance, integrity and passion will always pay off with dividends.  Life is short. Make sure you’re having fun too.

Episode 12 - Dominating social media through creating meaningful relationships ft. Zac Perna

Welcome to Episode 12 of the Basha Effect, in which I have the pleasure of catching up with with Zac Perna.  My name is Izhar Basha and I am your host.

Zac is a fitness model, online personal trainer and huge Youtube sensation hailing from Melbourne, Australia.  Zac and I discuss the evolution and the current state of social media and what it takes to build a loyal community.  The key message is that you need to deliver value, be authentic and genuine, show your vulnerabilities and avoid getting caught up with negative comments.

This is a really fun and insightful episode.  I had a lot of fun chatting with Zac and fleshing out some deep topics.

Enjoy, and thank you for listening.  I’m doing this for you.

Welcome to Episode 11 of the Basha Effect Podcast, where I get super passionate about “setting the bar”.  My name is Izhar Basha and I am your host.

In this episode, I explore the various processes and systems of analysis to determine what you need to do to push yourself and excel in whatever you do.  

Strap yourself in for an “in your face” reality check and awakening.  Push yourself to be better by “setting the bar”.

Enjoy, and thank you for listening.  I’m doing this for you.

Welcome to Episode 10 of the Basha Effect Podcast, where I had the pleasure of interviewing Kate Fitzsimon.  My name is Izhar Basha and I am your host.

Kate Fitzsimon is the Director of the Nicole Fitzsimon Foundation and an advocate for safety, responsibility and risk awareness in young people that travel overseas.  Kate lost her sister, Nicole 6 years ago in a motorbike accident in Thailand, during which Nicole was not wearing a helmet (which is not against the law in Thailand). After suffering such devastating tragedy in her family from such a young age, Kate has been able to bounce back and spread awareness of life and responsibility.  She is a role model to everyone that hears her story and her lessons.

During this episode, I explore some really deep topics with Kate about taking responsibility and holding yourself accountable to the possible consequences of your actions and how it can impact everyone around you.  The key lesson that we flesh out is that we can view life as either “happening to us, or happening for us”. Resilience and perspective are extremely underrated and underappreciated characteristics of perpetual positivity.  

Enjoy, and thank you for listening.  I’m doing this for you.

Welcome to Episode 9 of the Basha Effect, where I explore the topic of learning and achieving through doing, rather than reading.  My name is Izhar Basha and I am your host.

We are flooded with various various social media influencers telling us that we should read books and that all the answers are in books.  This can sometimes be a little misleading, and more often than not, incessantly reading books is the precursor to procrastination. It also assumes that we learn effectively through reading, whereas this may not be the case.

I had fun challenging the concept of non-stop reading, and my focus on “doing” has been a key reason for my achievements.

Enjoy, and thank you for listening.  I’m doing this for you.

Welcome to Episode 8 of the Basha Effect, where I talk about my key strategies and tips for what I do every morning to set myself up for success during that day. I discuss various misconceptions and other people's strategies that assist them in being successful and ensuring that their bodies and minds are primed for success during that day, but I also talk about aspects of what I choose to do which may differ from the regular expectations of society. My day starts off with me premeditating the night before and setting myself up for success by understanding what I need to be achieving the next day. This podcast shares a lot of my personal key tips and strategies about what I do, but I'm very careful to ensure that I set some guidelines and thought strategies for you to be able to decide about what you will apply to ensure that you succeed.

Enjoy guys. I do this for you.
