Listen "The Six Human Needs: An Introduction - Paul D. Lowe & Hina Solanki"
Episode Synopsis
Everything we do in life is done in order to fulfil a need. If we strip back these needs and requirements, we can clearly identify that all human needs centre around six very primal, very established necessities.
In today's show, the first in a series of specialised conversations about this fascinating subject, Paul talks to coach, mentor, entrepreneur and fellow traveller upon life's highway, Hina Solanki, the host of the Feel Fabulous podcast, about the six basic human needs - how to identify them, and how to make sure that each need is being effectively served.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
The six human needs are a need for certainty, a need for uncertainty (variety), for significance, for love and connection, for growth, and finally the need for contribution.
The need for certainty, or uncertainty, can manifest itself in many different ways. The most common form of endorsement comes in the structuring of routines in our lives. These routines often then lead to a desire for disruption or uncertainty.
Validation in business and life come in the form of congratulations or merit. We seek these awards in order to feel that sense of achievement that convinces us that we are on the right track. It also serves to feed our competitive nature.
Many people settle for connection rather than love, for fear of being hurt if they lower their defences. But the pain we feel in the fallout from love's sting is a price worth paying. Love is always the greatest gift we can hope for.

ABOUT THE GUEST
Born into an Indian family, Hina came to the UK with her family at just 6 months old. Her parents were practising Hindus, and she grew up in a serene, philosophical household, laying the foundations for her spiritual, holistic philosophy and approach to life. Hina’s father was a businessman, ably and enthusiastically supported by her mother, and she has inherited her parents’ business acumen every bit as much as their spiritual focus.

ABOUT THE HOST
One thing that’s never been attached to Paul is the label ‘normal’ – something he is totally aware of. He definitely subscribes to being one of those mentioned the iconic ‘Think Different’ Apple commercial narrated by Steve Jobs in 1977:
“Here's to the crazy ones, the misfits, the rebels, the troublemakers, the round pegs in the square holes... the ones who see things differently -- they're not fond of rules. You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify or vilify them, but the only thing you can't do is ignore them because they change things... they push the human race forward, and while some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius, because the ones who are crazy enough to think that they can change the world, are the ones who do!”
Paul has a long and distinguished history of coaching & mentoring – particularly focusing on helping people make the transition from pain to purpose; a journey he has made himself, from the depths of a deep dark existence, to now living a life of happiness and prosperity.
Through this Mastering The Game Of Life podcast, and books he has been involved in – including being a best-selling co-author – Paul also helps others to get their own inspirational messages and stories out into the world; as well as offering support to many charitable organisations, in their development & fund-raising.
