Coronavirus: An Opportunity For Reinvention? - Kym Hamer

Human beings are much like butterflies, who grow and develop through life until they have taken an entirely different form through radically unique journeys. We should view the current lockdown crisis as a catalyst, not for retreat but for true development.  Has the darkest of moments for humanity actually provided us with a kickstart for our futures?  Here to discuss this fascinating topic is Paul’s special guest, Kym Hamer. KEY TAKEAWAYS No one ever considered that such large-scale change would ever become the norm, and yet six weeks since lockdown began, we seem to have adapted completely to a new way of life. Lockdown has caused us to appreciate the many joys in life that we perhaps have taken for granted for so long. A return to life will cause us to be more appreciative going forward. Cataclysmic events pass. We have endured similar feelings of retreat and fear. But these times pass, and we find the will to survive and thrive. Now is the time to support and love. Negativity is something we have to learn from others. Our natural instinct is to care. We should give in to our natural compassionate state. BEST MOMENTS  ’Not a lot of us thought we would really be affected by this crisis’ ‘All that we have is this moment, and there are 86,400 moments in a day' ’This too shall pass’ ‘Practising kindness and compassion for ourselves and others is truly important at the moment’ ‘Our time is now' VALUABLE RESOURCE Mastering The Game Of Life Paul Lowe www.artemisfutures.co.uk Linkedin: www.linkedin.com/in/kymhamer/@kymhamerartemis Kym Hamer Twitter - https://twitter.com/kymhamerartemis Kym Hamer Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/kymhamerartemis/ ABOUT THE GUEST From Corporate Change Agent to Thriving Entrepreneur, Kym is an international business coach, entrepreneur & speaker showing businesses and their teams how to master uncertainty and accelerate results.  She is also a managing partner in The Next Ten Years, a start-up taking customer-led business practice into the Middle East, and a trustee at a Secondary Academy in London.  Kym is passionate about empowering others to take the leap from corporate employee to thriving entrepreneur and as the founder of Artemis Futures, she inspires and equips people to imagine, design and build their own profitable, future-fit businesses.  Kym’s reputation as a master storyteller and powerhouse connector make her the perfect advocate for storytelling and collaboration as two of the essential building blocks in building a business – and life – you love. ABOUT THE HOST One thing that’s never been attached to Paul is the label ‘normal’ – something he is totally aware of.  He definitely subscribes to being one of those mentioned the iconic ‘Think Different’ Apple commercial narrated by Steve Jobs in 1977: “Here's to the crazy ones, the misfits, the rebels, the troublemakers, the round pegs in the square holes... the ones who see things differently -- they're not fond of rules.  You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify or vilify them, but the only thing you can't do is ignore them because they change things... they push the human race forward, and while some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius, because the ones who are crazy enough to think that they can change the world, are the ones who do!” Paul has a long and distinguished history of coaching & mentoring – particularly focusing on helping people make the transition from pain to purpose; a journey he has made himself, from the depths of a deep dark existence, to now living a life of happiness and prosperity. Through this Mastering The Game Of Life podcast, and books he has been involved in – including being a best-selling co-author – Paul also helps others to get their own inspirational messages and stories out into the world; as well as offering support to many charitable organisations, in their development & fund-raising. “Remember – Mastering The Game Of Life Starts, By Embracing Our Hearts!” CONTACT METHOD Tel: +44 (0) 115 7270101 E-mail: [email protected] Twitter: https://twitter.com/IAMPaulLowe Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/IamPaulLowe/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/paul-d-lowe-7a78332a/
