Show Notes
I love my conversation with Andrew Matthews. His books, including BEING HAPPY, have sold over 8 MILLION copies in 48 languages. Andrew has addressed over 1000 corporations in 30 countries on attitude, enjoying work and resilience. His clients include McDonalds, Lenovo, Honda, Dell, Intel, HSBC, Motorola, Wal-Mart and Citibank. Andrew's talent is in making complex ideas simple. Andrew is popular with CEOs and surgeons, with teenagers and even prisoners.
Andrew's latest book is BOUNCING BACK - How we rebound from disaster and disappointment. Andrew is an accomplished artist and his 12 books are lavishly illustrated with his own cartoons. Andrew has done over 5,000 media interviews on 5 continents and he lives in Queensland, Australia, with his wife and publisher, Julie.
These are the facts about Andrew, but wait till you hear the stories that provide the inspiration and content for Andrew's work. Dealing with being bullied at school. Watching his step-son overcome impossible odds to survive a horrendous car accident. Dealing with 78 rejections before he found a publisher for his first book. His stories illustrate that anything is possible, no matter the circumstances, if you apply joyful persistence to everything you do.
This is a wonderful conversation. Please enjoy
