In this special bonus episode, Pierre Heistein, who was guest in episode 91 takes the host's chair alongside co-founders Sue Stockdale and Clive Steeper. They celebrate reaching 150 episodes by reflecting on the conversations with guests, lessons learned, and the common threads that bind these stories together. Pierre delves into the origins of the podcast, what does it mean to be inspirational,  and how the show has impacted Sue and Clive and their listeners.  Together they discuss how the podcast has influenced their perspectives about life and work, and how they look to the future for taking the next steps of development.Key Reflections"The most inspirational people often have an overriding purpose – something greater than themselves that motivates them to act."“Inspiration is about more than success or achievement. It's about attitude – a willingness to explore, to take risks, and to stay curious.”“Many of our guests had to embrace uncertainty or ambiguity at some point in their journey."“Being an inspiration to others was often something guests had not considered about themselves.”“The podcast is designed to challenge assumptions – by hearing from people outside your own world, you begin to understand different ways of thinking.”“What guests often valued most about the interview was the opportunity to reflect on their life and what shaped them.”“Each episode is a window into someone’s world, and those windows have revealed the many forms that inspiration can take.”“These conversations continue to affirm one thing – that every person has a story worth hearing.”Time Stamps01:26 Origins of the Podcast03:41 Defining inspiration06:06 Personal reflections on inspiration12:36 The role of curiosity and vulnerability23:31 Unexpectedly inspiring guests27:17 The journey of resilience and tenacity29:45 The power of ordinary acts32:21 Impactful stories from the podcast36:17 The Atuel river journey42:14 Reflections on longevity and success47:54 The future of the podcast Connect with Access to Inspiration: Twitter | Facebook | Instagram | LinkedIn | Read our Impact Report and if you would like to support us then Buy Me A CoffeeProducer: Sue Stockdale   Sound Editor: Matias De Ezcurra Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/access-to-inspiration--4156820/support.
