Sometimes we can hold ourselves back. Its like we have our own handbrake one.  These two mindsets will help release that handbrake.  1. I'll figure it out - confidence is often the result of doing the thing you're not doing because you're not confident yet  2. Why not me - put yourself in the space and place to make the most of opportunities. You can't grow if you don't go.  It's a journey. Keep showing up!

I love this one liner from Will by Will Smith  "It is respectable to lose to the universe. It is a tragedy to lose to yourself" - Will I hope you enjoy my reflections.  Keep showing up, have fun, do your best & leave space for those miracles. 

On episode 168 I am joined by Mark Walsh aka Mr Embodiment. Mark has dedicated his life to embodied learning. He founded the Embodied Facilitator Course (EFC), Embodied Yoga Principles (EYP) and Europe’s first embodied business training company, Integration Training. He has taught in fifty countries and made embodiment available online through a YouTube channel with over 14 million hits. More recently, he founded The Embodiment Podcast, and in 2018, launched the ground-breaking Embodiment Conference, which was attended by over 15,000 people. Since recording this podcast, Mark has taken it upon himself to head to Ukraine with vital medical supplies and to train trauma and resilience trainers on the ground in Lviv.

Don't be like Timon. Either ask the question and want to know the answer, or don't ask the question.  What's the question? How are you?

My favourite oner liner on the podcast comes from Dr. Deborah Rozman who said "we don't say I love you with all of my mind".  Here's what I think about that and how you can use it to your advantage. 

What does pizza night have to do with your leadership?

I'm reading Will Smith's memoir "Will" which is really good and gets to the heart of Will the human.  His Daddio taught him some important lessons as a child. Here's one that I think represents the ABTY mindset.  Don't focus on the wall, just lay the next brick.  I add some caution to this advice, but in the main, it is very applicable.

On episode 167 I am joined by our great friend, Heather Parady. Heather is a mental health therapist turned online entrepreneur where she helps outside the box leaders bring their services online in order to scale their impact. She is the host of multiple top-ranked podcasts including Unconventional Leaders, Happy Brain and NFT’s for Newbies which she co-hosts with Rich Cardona. Heather has been featured in Forbes, Pop-Sugar, and most importantly the front of her mom’s refrigerator. Heather is an incredible community builder and it was a pleasure to be able to honour the impact she has created with Unconventional Leaders, as she moves into a new chapter. We talk about the process of letting the UL community go and having the courage to step into her calling and much more… In this episode you will hear: 03:00 time to close a chapter 05:30 how Heather came to the decision to archive Unconventional Leaders 09:00 community building real talk 13:30 it feels so weird, but let’s just try it 15:00 NFT’s for Newbies 20:45 NFT’s are more than just a jpeg and it’s implication for community builders 28:00 community building on Discord demand presence 30:00 Heather’s lessons from hosting Happy Brain 31:30 we need your voice now more than ever I hope this interview inspires you to pursue your calling and have the courage to try something new.
