Show Notes
We all come into this world with unconditional worth – and then we lose sight of that and spend so much time running around trying to prove that we are enough. It’s part of the human condition – and has been something of a key theme running through this podcast.
One of my guests I talked about this with was the 1996 formula one world champion Damon Hill, whose father Graham had also been a world champion – making them the first ever father-son duo to achieve the feat.
In this episode:
- Why complete self-acceptance, and the joy of simply being, is the ultimate state
- The sense of lack that drives some people to seek fame
- The impact that fame has on those who rise to acclaim, and the rest of society who put them on a pedestal
- The value of looking inwards and developing self-awareness
- Getting help on the journey of self-reflection - and the value of therapy
