Paul Sockett is with us on The MultiPod today: actor, performer, improviser, hugger, traveller and storyteller. Citizen of the world and multipotentialte, navigating the exceptional changes of the past 12 months with grace and perspective.
Paul reflects on his journey to this point, and the lessons he continues to learn about identity, control, safety and how we interact with each other. How we are allowed to choose the words we use, and define what those words mean to us.
We talk about effective storytelling. You don't have to tell another person's story for them, and that is freeing. Practice being graceful, practice understanding a difficult feeling, not because it's good or bad, but just difficult. Get familiar with the unfamiliar.
"We're all trying to perform a show that we have not rehearsed," says Paul. What if there is no big conclusion, no performance or deadline? If life is lived in preparation for something, but that something can never come; what if the preparation itself is the performance?
Join us for an insightful, thought-provoking and meaningful conversation, that takes place very much in the present.
