Step out of black and white thinking.
Shortlisted in top 10 for the People’s Choice Podcast Awards 2017 in Education (maybe I should try entering an award again – I haven’t since).
I’m unboxable. A podcast that ranges from Children to Adults. Personality to Psychology. Education to Development. Philosophy to a modern critique of society and our politics. Self-help to Spiritualism. Vulnerability & creativity. Racism & Society Culture I started out caring about success – now I care about secureness. And I am to do this in a way that sits with my own authentic self and spiritual nature.
I don’t aim to give answers – I aim to give you permission to arrive at your own. Critical thinking is possible for everyone regardless of education status.

Inspirations:
I think it is really important to credit others work – what has gone before you. And to allow your readers/listeners and so on to form their own opinions of the work. You don’t have to love or agree for them to inspire you – but many of these are my heroes. Not in any order – just as they came to mind. I seem to add to the list weekly as I continue to learn. (So it will continue to expand)
