51 "Brand Strand" Episode: Kate Roberts - L&D Professional & Horse Whispering Enthusiast!
Show Notes Chapter Markers

Welcome to a special "Brand Strand" Episode of The Good Listening To Podcast - with me Chris Grimes!

"Brand Strand" is where I wrap an Episode of the Podcast - with its strong storytelling construct - around a particular individual or Company - to amplify their Company or Personal Brand.

And so to that end, please welcome to the "GLT Clearing" today: Kate Roberts L&D Professional - loyal friend personified - and Coach!

And not as rumoured (!) the same Kate Roberts who when I Googled her, turned out to be one of the foremost Welsh Language Authors of the 20th Century - who #awkward - died - in 1985 (born in 1891)

But I digress!

Kate Roberts is a lovely and loyal friend who I've had the great pleasure of working with over many years in my Training & Coaching capacity.

Wherever Kate goes - I tend to follow shortly, thanks to Kate always taking me with her to wibble on (usually!) about Personal Impact & Leadership with a bit of "Horse Whispering" thrown in as a cheeky-chappy-chaser!

Enjoy!

Yo can also "Watch/Listen" to Kate's Film on Vimeo here:

So - thanks for listening! 

"The Good Listening To" Podcast is the series that features "The Clearing":  Where all good Questions come to be asked and all good Stories come to be told!

Think "Desert Island Discs" but in a Clearing - and with Stories rather than Music!

There are some lovely juicy storytelling metaphors to also enjoy along the way:

The Clearing itself - A Tree (where we get to "shake your tree to see which storytelling apples fall out, in the form of a lovely storytelling exercise called "5-4-3-2-1") - some Alchemy - some Gold - and finally a Cake with a Cherry on Top!

Also think about William Shakespeare - and about Jaques in "As You Like It" in particular:

"All the world's a stage,
And all the men and women merely players;
They have their exits and their entrances,
And one man in his time plays many parts,
His acts being seven ages..."

And as my Guest in the Podcast:  Now is your 'moment in the sunshine' to share your story!

Who are you? What's your story? And what 'life-lessons-learned-along-the-way' would you like to share with us? And just to get bit "existential on yo ass" too (!) what would you like your legacy to be?  How would you most like to be remembered?

And all my guests have at least 2 things in common: They are all Creative individuals  - and all with an interesting story to be told!

If you'd like to find out more, then please do check out my websites www.secondcurve.uk + www.instantwit.co.uk - and there's also a dedicated "Good Listening To" Facebook Group c/o the link above.

Plus if you'd be interested in the experience of being given "a damn good listening to" yourself, or you'd like to explore the idea of so

Tune in next week for more stories of 'Distinction & Genius' from The Good Listening To Show 'Clearing'. If you would like to be my Guest too then you can find out HOW via the different 'series strands' at 'The Good Listening To Show' website.
