Ladies n' Genmin, absolutely delighted to welcome to the "GLT Clearing", the wise and wonderful Nick Fordham, currently based in Hong Kong! Nick Fordham has been described as being "the most highly saught-after soft-skills trainer in Asia" - or as I like to call him "the most saught after man in Asia in soft trainers!" Chortle!Nick is a friend, facilitator, coach and a very wise man. And as I knew all along - he'd be well worth "giving a damn good listening to" indeed - and he doesn't dissapoint!Nick and I also work together at Working Voices. Most recently at a big global client gathering in Abu Dhabi - at the very end of last year.This is a wonderful rich-and -textured conversation,  with some great stories to enjoy along the way: About Nick and his the creative process as an ex-actor, faciltator - and as an extremely talented Coach with "top-tips a-plenty" to share and divulge.We talk about the profound power of "reframing" in Coaching - and Nick's first experience of it, in the form of some very powerful advice indeed from his father, at the age of 23, when Nick was at a low point in his life and career. But also - as you'll hear - this was also a profound point of "new beginnings" for Nick, and indeed the notion of "reframing" continues to carry him along to where he is to this day.Nick is a superb conversationalist and there are many great stories and "Eureka moments" to enjoy along the way.Listen to Nick's story about the creative process - and  about "Dare to Suck" in the context of the band Aerosmith in particular!(I've created  a special "Chapter" here in the Podcast dedicated to that story!) So - pull up a cup of coffee (or even better, a glass of wine!) and enjoy the ride!And thank you for listening to another episode of a "GLT with me CG!"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 some Personal Impact Coaching from me CG - to help level-up your confidence, communication, and personal impact c/o my online Coaching proposition: The Second Curve "Zoom Room" - then, by all means, do get in touch via any of the usual social media channels (see above) or you can email me at chris@secondcurve.uk (The Second Curve "Zoom Room": Coaching to get you to the next level - or Clarity on how to get to "where next?")
