What would you do if you weren't so scared of people laughing at you? - Steve Sims

This week's show is with Steve Sims. Quoted as “The Real Life Wizard of Oz" by Forbes and Entrepreneur Magazine, Steve Sims is a best selling Author of 'Bluefishing: The Art of Making Things Happen, sought-after coach', top-rated speaker in the US speaker after keynoting at a variety of networks, groups and associations as well as the Pentagon and Harvard – twice. He is the founder and CEO of the luxury concierge service Bluefish. 

He's someone who has worked with Sir Elton John and Elon Musk, sent people down to see the wreck of the Titanic on the sea bed and managed to get the museum in Florence, Italy that houses the most famous sculpture on Earth, The Statue of David, to shut down in order to host a private dinner for his client at the foot of the statue with Andrea Bocelli serenading them while they ate their pasta.

In this show, we explored the question: what would you create if you weren't afraid of being laughed at? We spoke about cancel culture, the lack of true conversation, how we kill our dreams when people mock us - and why those people are rarely the ones to take notice of. And lastly, why and how you can go for stupid!

I’d love to know what YOU think about this week's show. Let’s carry on the conversation…  please leave a comment below.

What you'll learn from this episode:

• I loved what Steve said about needing to have the conversation with ourselves about our dreams first - often we're the first person to mock ourselves, instead how about we become the first person to acknowledge ourselves for our dream?
• People will almost certain laugh at you, especially to begin with, the choice is whether to take notice of them or to listen to the people whose opinion you respect
• Steve's car analogy was a great one! I wonder what lives we'd create if we made it natural for us to go for stupid?
