Finding the links

As a child, as much as playing with the other children I also loved sitting listening to the grown-ups talking. I found the back stories of the other children fascinating. Maybe the issues they were having at school, health concerns or any of that other stuff that parents tend to share with each other.

Until someone noticed me and sent me back outside.

I was never mean about what I heard but sometimes it would change my view of someone, in a good way. When I knew what some of their vulnerabilities were it could warm me more to them.

Fast forward too many years, and here I am still listening to people’s back stories, their stories of achievement, vulnerability and passion and helping them shape those stories so that their audience warms to them.

Was there something about you from your childhood that links to what you’re doing now?

Why not a book a call with me now to see how I can help you find those links?
