It is with great pleasure and anticipation that we present an exclusive interview with Mimi Novic, one of today's most esteemed inspirational authors, motivational speakers, and self-awareness experts.

Traveling extensively around the world has exposed you to a diverse range of cultures and teachings. How have these experiences influenced your approach to therapy and self-awareness?

What these experiences have taught me is that we are all a part of a huge Divine tapestry that weaves throughout the universe and every one of us, regardless of our background or our culture, are intricately connected. My work takes me across the globe and the more you travel the more open you are to people and their customs.

You become increasingly more humble because you are more aware of the vastness of the world and all its beauty.

You gain an insight into other lives and it is impossible not to learn new ways of living.

I have learnt the healing arts from hermits, danced with dervishes, lectured with the most respected and knowledgable professors in their field, sat with royalty, and eaten with the wise, and each one taught me the magnificence of human nature.

Your ability to bring together inspirational influences into music, words, and transformative therapy is truly remarkable. Can you share with us how you integrate these elements to create a powerful and profound balance of positive awakening?

Music is the mystery that abides in the soul. It has the power to transform every person that it touches, in ways that are unexplainable.

My love of music started at a very young age when I listened to many different genres and especially classical music, and world music was my favourite, as both have the ability to stir something deep inside of me, and to give me the freedom to express my words, as I was a very shy child and words were sometimes difficult to say.

I found that if you sat with someone and listened to music together, especially that you all loved, the connection between you became stronger and it was easier to gain friendships that were sincere and long-lasting.

When you listen to music with someone, you can feel and see the depths of who they are and I realised from an early age that music had to be part of my everyday life.

Later as I got older I discovered that putting music and words together opened a magical world that can bring healing and an acceptance of one’s real self, through gentle reminders that knock on the door of the heart, and then I knew I had to incorporate music into my work.

Using sound and music therapy is a powerful method of releasing age-old energies and emotions in order to bring about transformation.

As I began to work alongside various musicians and singers, who I collaborate with on a regular basis, I saw a huge change in my clients and patients, that only music could do, and I then weaved my therapy work within the scopes of music and sound.

Your teachings often emphasise the importance of healing from within. How do you encourage individuals to tap into their inner strength and resilience during challenging times?

Unless we delve deep within ourselves it is impossible to find any answers or true tranquility.

If we rely on external factors for solace and peace it becomes an impossible mission and one begins to be filled with anxiety and fear, as the outside world is ever-changing and it is always a place filled with turbulence and angst if you look for it, but there is also a remarkable beauty as well.

Our saving grace is to gain an inner balance where we see all that’s happening, and although we may have no control over it, we have the power to change how we look at a situation.

It is important for us to become self-reliant in these times, to find a way where we can reach an inner equilibrium that is not disturbed through outside forces.

Taking one day at a time is paramount and realising that we can only ever be here in the present moment at any given time.

The past is somewhere where we can only walk with our memories never with our footsteps, the future is an unknown land, yet we stand on the bridge of the now, and only there we can make a difference.

How does it feel to know that your words have such a significant impact on others’ lives?

I feel incredibly blessed and humbled and strive always to do better.

I still hear the words of some of the wisest people I’ve met.

Every person has a profound wisdom inside of them, everyone can teach us something, and words are a powerful force, they have the ability to change lives, so we must always be in a state of awareness of how we speak to others and be mindful of only ever speaking our heartfelt truth.

Intention is what matters, our whole life moves according to our intention.

Your passion for helping others achieve fulfillment and confidence is truly admirable. Can you share some practical tips for individuals looking to embark on their own journey of self-discovery and personal growth?

I would say the first thing is to ask oneself what doesn’t make you happy, then you have made your journey easier.

Then see what brings you peace, which actions, which places, anything that gives you a sense of peace in your heart, is usually the right path.

We all have an inner compass that guides us.

Some call it a gut feeling, some the soul, and it is this that shows us the right path.

If we stray from that path, it is then that we have feelings of unease, fear and uncertainty.

There is a different road for every person on the planet, what is important is to find our calling and our vocation.

Begin with the things that bring you joy, respect yourself enough to walk away from everything that disrespects your soul, show yourself that you are sincere in your pursuits of finding inner peace and love, and slowly you will begin a beautiful relationship with your heart and soul.
