World of Podcasting - Interview

World of Podcasting - Interview Endre Hoffman and I met via a networking event back in early 2023, and we have been happily networking and supporting one another ever since. Endre is a genuinely compassionate person who's underlying drive is to help business owners and leaders who experience a lack of confidence, self-doubt, are exhausted and feeling overwhelmed. His aim is to remove the struggle from their mind so they achieve confidence and peace within.  "I reconnect them to their authentic leadership and naturally high self-worth" , he explains.  His podcast is a way for him to extend his services to the general public.

His guests share their experiences during transformational times in their lives, offer amazing advice and tips. Through sharing their stories Endre is consciously, proactively changing the world by helping others expand their views a

Quote of the day

"Who would deduce the dragonfly  from the larva the iris  from the bud the lawyer  from the infant? We are all shapeshifters  and magical re-inventors.  Life is really  a plural noun  a caravan of selves."  ~ Diane Ackerman ~~~     Follow us & find our Books:   on Amazon Visit:   Drum It With Brummet Blog Subscribe:   Brummet Media​ YouTube Channel​  ​ ~~~

To Dance As One © Lillian Brummet Dec. 2017... In memory of those who’ve passed before.  No longer chained and weighed  By loss, by grief, by stress… By uncertainty. My wings unfurl a little more. A changed heart, Once yearned for awareness…. Then, regretted that awareness.   Driven to inspire change, Then, inspired by those Creating change. Settled in this home, This lush valley, This good life… And as projects slow down  I question: What will the future years hold? More work yet to be done… …Beyond that… I yearn to walk consciously. But what is that, exactly? …It certainly goes beyond awareness Goes beyond being proactive.

World of Writing - Author Interview

World of Writing - Author Interview Phyllis Chubb and I were both students of the same course, and in one of their webinars' chat room we got to know each other better. When we learned that we were both starting similar projects and that we are both from BC (Canada) - it was easy to start networking with her. Later on our relationship developed into friendship - and we now meet weekly for a friendly chat about what each other have been up to. I always look forward to those meetings because we really support each other and I'm motivated to do the tasks I said I was going to do before the next meeting. I was super stoked therefore to feature Phyllis here today, so we can all learn more about her writing experiences. Phyllis says her first word was likely: Why . “ Why do people act the way we do ”? Her analytical and inquisitive mind led her to delve into years of study and ultimately a master’s degree in human relations and a career in community counselling and psychiatry. These
