The Power of Honest Conversations

“How are you?”, “Good thanks, how are you?”, “Can’t complain!”

Sounds familiar, right? We spend our lives avoiding opening up to share just exactly how we’re feeling. No-one is an island: we all experience highs and lows, and we need to be more comfortable about talking about ourselves. And so, for this week’s powerful episode, we’re joined by our soul brother Jindy Mann (The Selfish Leader) for an honest conversation about the power of, erm, honest conversations.

This is a not-to-be-missed episode.

For more on Jindy’s work, check out his coaching website - www.selfishleader.com - and head to www.leaderbrotherson.com for more info on the work he’s doing to provide men a space to think and reconnect with a more positive role in society.

Guest

Jindy Mann

We each can show up in the world with more humanity, courage and realness. I work with leaders (that means you) and organisations to help them to grow: focus first on you so that you can lead consciously and be of service to others.

What is Talking Cod: a survivor’s guide to middle age?

Three northern blokes talk about midlife and growing old disgracefully: the kind of things you want to say, but rarely ever do.

Hosts David Eccles, Phil Birchenall and Andy Hall explore how confronting life head-on - with all the crap it throws your way - makes you stronger, older, bolder and, of course, that little bit wiser.

We’ll share our own experiences and talk to friends about life’s ups and downs, what’s worked, and what definitely didn’t.


Frank, fearless, funny. Talking Cod.
