For Episode 7 I am doing something a little different. In today’s episode I engage with a few of you, the listeners. Earlier this week, I asked for 5 people who would be keen to come onto the show, and to my pleasant surprise, ten people showed up. I was moved, so I decided, why not chat to all who came forward? In this episode, I engage with 10 of our listeners and we briefly find out who they are, where they are from, how they are doing and what they are passionate about. I also ask them to share two or three things with friends and family who are listening to the show, and share some of their pearls of wisdom with us. This was quite a tricky episode to navigate – getting 10 people on in under an hour was no easy feat, and there were a few technical difficulties as you might hear. But, what came through and shone through was the message that each of them shared. I thank each and every single one of them for the part they have played in building the Impactful Conversations community. And let me just take a moment to thank you, as you are listening to this, for helping build the community, whether this is your first episode, or your seventh, I am grateful to each and every single one of you. And maybe, you can join me on the show one day in the near future. Listen, and enjoy! Subscribe to the Impactful Conversations YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCz4CncLzQXfBU1GRZ5PtQ
