Description

Ladies and Gentlemen I give you: "The Prologue"!The place - the launchpad - from which the story commences - the tone is set - and from whence all that follows - follows!There is also now a brand new "The Good Listening To" Facebook Group too!So here is the backstory about how the "What You Need is a Good Listening To" Podcast (then quickly shortened to the "Good Listening To" Podcast with me Chris Grimes) came about!So called because "giving you a good listening to" is - after all - what Coaching is all about!In the beginning, the podcast landscape consisted, to my knowledge, mostly of Louis Theroux and his fantastic podcast series, "Grounded", which he recorded during lockdown.Then, on the First Day,  I drank slightly too much red wine and the "Good Listening To" podcast came into existence!"A GLT with me CG!" (see what I'm doing there?!) is my new Podcast series with a strong storytelling imperative - and with the simple aim of inviting my guests to a space called "The Clearing", where we get to "shake their tree - hear their story - and amplify their brand": "Who are you - and what's the story that you tell?"With some nice juicy storytelling archetypes and metaphors to also enjoy along the way: The Clearing itself - a Tree - a lovely storytelling exercise called "5-4-3-2-1" - some Alchemy - Some Gold - and a Cake with a cherry on top!What's the best piece of advice you've ever been given? What is your favourite inspirational quote? When you are truly "in flow" and "at purpose" what is the Alchemy and the Gold that you like to bring?So - welcome aboard! Why not pull up a cup of coffee (or a glass of wine!) and join me Chris Grimes and my guests to answer these questions and more - in a "GLT with me CG!"Enjoy! (Also do check out my websites www.secondcurve.uk + www.instantwit.co.uk - and if you're maybe interested in some personal Coaching - from me CG - to level-up your Confidence, Communication, Personal Impact or Personal Brand then by all means do get in touch c/o chris@secondcurve.uk)

The podcast that invites my guests to 'The Clearing' or serious happy place of their choosing and from where the 'story behind the story' of being them unfolds. It's the Storytelling show with the Squirrels & the Tree from Motivational Comedian Chris Grimes! The podcast that sets out, suffused with storytelling metaphor, to tell the "story behind the story" of being YOU! And it all takes place in a 'serious happy place' of your choosing called "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. Also think about Shakespeare - about "All the World's a Stage" - and about "Legacy" in particular: "Who are you? What's your story? And what 'life-lessons-learned-along-your-way' would you like to share with us?" And whilst we've got you here in "The Clearing": "What would you like your legacy to be? How would you most like to be remembered?" With a deliberate invitation to 'go deep'! And where all my guests have at least 2 things in common: They are all Creative individuals - and all with an interesting Story to be told! So yes! "Your Life & Times With Me Chris Grimes!" is the new Storytelling Podcast series from "MojoCoach", Facilitator & Motivational Comedian Chris Grimes - with a strong storytelling imperative and with the simple aim of inviting my guests to a creative space of your choosing called "The Clearing" where we get to hear your Story and let your thinking unfold. With some lovely Storytelling metaphors to also enjoy along the way: The Clearing itself - a Tree - a lovely juicy Storytelling exercise called "5-4-3-2-1" - some Alchemy - some Gold - a cheeky bit of Shakespeare - and a Cake! So it's all to play for! "Being in 'The Life & Times' with that Chris Grimes is like having a 'Day Spa' for your Brain!" (So saideth Wendy Bagger!) So - let's get listening!
