Something To Say
I have discovered that those who have something truly valuable to say have experienced struggles in their life. The men and women who have the strength to learn from their struggles are the ones who I listen to the most. I’m really not interested in “pie in the sky” philosophy or “3 ways to make life easy” propaganda. I want to hear from those who speak truth and who are willing to share about the hard lessons they have learned through experience. Those who display that kind of openness possess strong courage and deep compassion for others.
Ian Richardson is that kind of leader. He demonstrates authentic transparency with a genuine desire to invest in the lives of others. His journey is one of difficulty, pain, determination and passion. He has refused to live as a victim but instead has chosen, through hard work, to live a life and create a legacy of purpose.
I recently interviewed Ian on my Crossing The Line podcast. It was such a powerful conversation that we have divided it into 2 parts. It is a story full of ups and downs. Mostly, it is a story of strength and commitment. I must warn you that we deal with the issue of suicide in these episodes. Please be aware of any potential emotional triggers this may cause.
I strongly encourage you to listen to this podcast. Ian has something incredibly important to say and he has earned the right to say it. This CTL episode will make a difference.
