You may have heard of Russell Brand? He made his name as a standup comedian then film actor (and first husband of Katy Perry). He had all sorts of brilliant going on for him at the same time as addictions and behaviours which nearly killed him.
Recently I was recommended to watch his YouTube channel as he has had something of an epiphany – he’s happily remarried, now Dad to 2 little girls and dedicates his life’s work to seeking answers to BIG spiritual questions. “Really, Russell Brand? No way!” I thought, my judgment rising and my “but I really don’t like Russell Brand” shield coming up.
Well. Hmmm. I’ve watched a few of his interviews with luminaries such as Ekhart Tolle (Presence and living in the present) and Brene Brown (Vulnerability and power – with a fair smattering of swearing from them both!).
I’m in awe of how Russell interviews, how open, articulate and smart he is, how he is thrilled to be in their presence (unlike many interviewers who are more interested in talking about themselves than pulling fantastic thoughts and intel from their subject).
Do give these two interviews a watch if you’re curious and you want a change from another boxset, which I did! I’m going to watch them both again, there was too much to take in first time around!
We all deserve the benefit of the doubt at times. A second chance. It doesn’t mean you have to forget how someone behaved or how they made you feel at the time but it does give you the chance to move forward and forgive. Especially if they demonstrate how much they’ve changed and how they want to help others.
And do consider joining me LIVE in 2 weeks’ time!
On 11th September LIVE and in person I’m hosting a one-day virtual Live Experience Blaze Your Own Trail to look at your life, life decisions, career, purpose, values, and next step plans from NOW.
So much has changed for so many of us and we feel differently. When we feel differently, we do differently…let’s make some plans together. It’s hard to figure it all out by yourself. That’s another of my own (and Russell Brand’s) life lessons…
A ONE-Day Virtual Live Event Experience hosted by me!
Registration Here! Friday 11th September 2020.
You, thinking about you for a change.
- Consider and identify your values – what drives your decisions and how you look at and feel about opportunities
- Discover your Purposeful Sweetspot – where you Passion; Purpose; Profession; Mission collides and what that could mean
- Look at time and timing and how procrastination habits sabotage us
- Learn with and from other women like you too all from the comfort of your own home office.
Here’s a 1 minute snapshot video of what I mean!
Our attention will be on YOU, your current career path; your sense of purpose; the potential you have to work with now, what YOU want now at work AND in your wider life* AND then make some real-time action plans – together.
*Feeling better, clearer, more confident = doing better with yourself and with others everywhere in your life.
Registration is open HERE NOW and we’ll be fundraising together at the same time for a Charity close to my – and I suspect – your heart too.
