Most People Died at 14, They Just Haven't Noticed Yet

Watch a six-year-old in a Spider-Man costume. Total belief. Boundless possibility. Zero concern for anyone's opinion. Then watch what happens — the mockery, the “be realistic,” the slow education in smallness.By 14, most people have already surrendered the core conviction that life could be extraordinary. The rest of their decades are spent decorating the cell.In this episode Jonathan Doyle asks the question most people are afraid to sit with: what happened to the person you were before the world told you to be quiet? Drawing on Thoreau, Helen Keller, Oscar Wilde and a lifetime of watching audiences come alive, Jonathan makes the case that the buried child didn't go away — and that the resurrection of that person is the entire project of a serious life.Go look at an old photograph. It's still there.Enquire about booking Jonathan to speak:https://jonathandoyle.co/Connect with Jonathan on Instagramhttps://www.instagram.com/jdoylespeaks/Jonathan is on Youtube here:https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCpCYnW4yVdd93N1OTbsxgyw
