Have you ever had a spark of inspiration doused by an inner voice whispering doubt? You're not alone. 

In this episode, Carole Edmond chats with Nick Williams, a powerhouse in the world of inspiration, leadership, and personal development. Nick, an author, speaker, coach, and mentor, is known for helping individuals and organisations unlock their potential and pursue their true calling. 
 
Their discussion traverses a wide array of topics, including generational patterns that don't need to be perpetuated, dysfunctional family dynamics, surrounding yourself with inspiring people, satisfying your curiosity, and managing your own resistance, among many others. Their conversation is a goldmine of insights, fuelled by personal stories and transformative experiences. 
 
Nick recounts his own story, fuelled by a nagging sense of unfulfillment. Raised in a family that prioritised practicality over passion, his life took a pivotal turn when he decided to leave a secure IT career to pursue personal growth. Nick shares his own path of self-discovery and stresses the importance of reframing the unknown as the "not yet known," a chance for exciting possibilities.
 
Fear and self-doubt are inevitable roadblocks, but Nick and Carole discuss strategies to overcome these obstacles. Nick highlights the existence of a voice of boundless potential within each of us—a voice he calls the muse. This inner wisdom has spoken to us many times; sometimes we've heeded its call, while other times we've dismissed it. Recognising and embracing this inner voice is key for growth.
 
Laughter and humour emerge as surprising yet essential themes. Both Carol and Nick recount their forays into stand-up comedy, highlighting humour’s power for personal growth and connection. They explore the balance between leadership and the lightness of humour, advocating for joy and laughter as tools for navigating life's challenges.
 
The message is clear: finding your calling isn't a one-time event. It's a journey paved with self-belief, inspiration, and the courage to take action. Listen to hear this amazing conversation.
