Lady Colin: Princess Diana's Biographer Talks Royal Family Controversies [Business, mindset, entrepreneur, disruptors]

In this episode, Rob talks to Lady C; author, TV personality, entrepreneur, socialite and so much more. They discuss her writing, her persona and of course, The Royal Family!   KEY TAKEAWAYS  Lady C is often said to be controversial but she doesn’t believe this to be case. She believes that because she did many things first, and in some forms a bit of a maverick, this is why she was and is seen as controversial, but she is actually very measured as a person. Lady C met Diana when she was 17 before she was with Prince Charles, she recalls her not even being very memorable. Being 12 years her senior, Lady C  was always kind to Diana when she started dating Charles, she already knew how difficult this world she was entering could be. When Lady C wanted to write a book about Diana she had to get permission. At first Diana was on board but it later transpired that Diana wanted to use this as a way to get out of the royal family which made Lady C very hesitant and nervous. She was going to pull out after finding out Diana was lying about many things, but she ended up still releasing it as knew if she didn’t Diana would have her story published by someone else and would ruin the Prince of Wales reputation. Lady C started to hear lots of bad things around Meghan Markle from well-established sources, from Royals and Royal staff. After some time many started to worry about the control she had of Harry and his welfare. Inspiration and content for Lady C’s writing has always come rather naturally to her. Even when she has struggled she has been able to see it through and further down the line she can never tell what aspects/areas she struggled with and those she didn’t. Everything always flows as it should. Lady C believes, without a doubt, that the world is too soft and politically correct now. She says it is a sign of a decadent civilisation, that we are a civilisation in decline and too many people expect things to be given and handed to them rather than making their own life for themselves. Man is inclined to abuse. We need to re-evaluate how we are living in our world and societies at the moment. It is not sustainable, we should look back at some of the old ways of doing things and change things whilst we still have the time to do so.   BEST MOMENTS  “I want my books to stand the test of time” “You do what it takes to be an entrepreneur” “I’m not controversial I’m really measured, I suppose though if you are a bit of a maverick, as in you’re breaking new ground, people need to label you” “If you’re going to lie, lie from the beginning” “You just struggle sometimes…I had to jump over the boredom hurdle” “We have given people liberty, and prosperity that is unprecedented but it comes at a price”   [Business, mindset, entrepreneur, disruptors] VALUABLE RESOURCES https://robmoore.com/ bit.ly/Robsupporter   https://robmoore.com/podbooks  rob.team ABOUT THE HOST Rob Moore is an author of 9 business books, 5 UK bestsellers, holds 3 world records for public speaking, entrepreneur, property investor, and property educator.
