E2. Leaping with Suzy Walker

My guest today is journalist and founder of the Alnwick Story Festival as well as running The Heart Leap Substack, a self-development and writing community. I was curious to learn more about Suzy's experience of leaping, it's not a word of action I use often! Suzy reflects that for her, the leap is between the head and the heart. Such a small physical distance between head and heart, and yet, often this is where the struggle is. She shares some wonderful stories about how leaping has served her in different ways over the years.  We touch on those negative voices we all experience, the role of and relationship with feedback in our lives and work and we pick up my first guest, Robert’s ideas of improvisation. Suzy sees improvisation as an invitation. An invitation to step into the river of life, and for her, the worst thing she could do would be to not accept invitations. This is how she does everything, this is how she does life.  And so, I invite you to join us, and step into the river of our conversation. You can subscribe to Suzy's substack here.
