More about Janey Lee Grace:"Janey Lee Grace describes herself as a broadcaster, author and coach. She is all of that and much, much more. Her Ted Talk sets a benchmark for precision, coherence, clarity and surprise. Janey Lee Grace has had no fewer than 4 children and an extraordinarily colourful life. Who else can claim to have been commissioned by Mattel to present Barbie Doll as a rock chick? Who else can claim to have founded The Sober Club? Who else is so busy they have to diarise time to be beside the sea for their own mental health? Janey Lee Grace has a holistic approach to life, which no longer includes any alcohol any time. She now encourages others to ditch their win-or-lose-on-the-booze approach to daily life - but only if the idea appeals to them. She proclaims that it is as valid a lifestyle choice as for example, becoming a vegan. Janey Lee Grace reminds us that alcohol is the only drug you will be challenged for not using. She positively enjoys helping people reach their full potential without the distraction that alcohol provides. Janey Lee Grace acknowledges and accepts imperfection. She glorifies authenticity and action. In her words “You don’t have to get it right. You do have to get it going!” Listen. You will learn something!She is also the founder of The Sober Club"Reg StarkeyEditor, UK Health Triangle MagazineEnjoy!“The Good Listening To: Your Life & Times With Me Chris Grimes!” is the Show & Podcast series that features “The Clearing” (or 'Serious Happy Place' of your choosing)The Clearing is 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!With some lovely juicy 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 couple of random Squirrels - a cheeky bit of Shakespeare - and a CAKE!So it’s all to play for!
