I'd love your feedback, send me a message

I had so much fun with Chris Dorris making this episode! Chris is a highly sought after coach and speaker working with some seriously big organisations. He is also a generous and fun loving guy.

My coach, Shazia Govindji [episode 32], recommended a book to me a couple of months ago – The Book of Mental Toughness Mantras – and Chris is the author. I really enjoyed it and wanted to create posts about some of them – my usual mix of rough sketch by me and my thoughts about what it means to me. Wanting to do the right thing, I got in touch with Chris to ask his permission and I thought I’d also chance my arm and invite him on the podcast.

This conversation is the result. It’s testament to the power that human connection is always available; this was the first time we’d met but it felt like we’d known each other for ever.

We touched on a number of topics from Chris’ starting point, to working in elite sports, to his insatiable desire to serve others and continually grow as a human being

I’d love to hear your thoughts on our conversation; on what felt fresh and exciting to you as you listened?
