39 Ideas For Life (Episode 39-39) How to Release Our Inner Brake - Interview Michiel Soeters 39 Ideas For Life
-
- Self-Improvement
For my last post, number 39 of 39, ending this project with the foot off the brake pedal, I have researched how we can release our inner brakes, let go of shame, and utilize the power of Wu Wei, the ancient Taoist concept of non-doing. Wu Wei translates to inexertion, inaction, or effortless action.
For this, I’ve visited the yacht which carries the name Wu Wei, and its owner, Michiel Soeters. It was through the yacht that I found Michiel, and his work on leadership coaching, shame, and releasing our inner brakes. Michiel translated ‘The Shame Factor’ of Stephan Poulter into Dutch, as well as two other books of Poulter. Building on decades of experience, Michiel now focuses on helping people and teams with leadership and development. His focus is on the relationship between leaders and themselves, before going into the relationship between the leader and their team.
We talked for almost four hours, of which the interview lasted an hour and twenty minutes. It was a truly great talk, which I suspect, could be of great value for you, as it certainly was for me. After the majority of online video calls for the many interviews conducted, I am grateful to be able to close this project with Michiel Soeters in person on his yacht. Therefore, please excuse the creaking of the mast, and other sounds from the yacht on which we recorded this interview. I’m sure it won’t take away from the value and insights shared. Enjoy, and thank you for being with me on this journey.
To be continued, in another shape and form.
PS: Stay tune, as all the work of last year will be published in a book.
