Jun 02, 2023 Season 5 Episode 10
Mark Clifton & Zac Thraves

This week, Mark and Zac are joined by past contributor and follower of the show, Benny 'The Stoic Padawan' a world traveller who has just returned to his native Netherlands and back home with his parents.  A situation that resonated with Mark, who also found himself back at home, however, in slightly different circumstances. 

In this week's show, Benny shared the challenges of living and working overseas and realised that learning and using a different language and the ability to communicate in that language is an incredibly liberating feeling as well as building the self confidence that comes with the ability to express yourself in another language.

Benny also goes on to share that he also creates and writes in other languages and how this has 'opened doors' to new opportunities and that allowing yourself to be 'vulnerable' is also a great way of getting to understand your true talents and how important it is to 'let go' of all inhibitions.

One of the main reasons for our podcast show is to support and encourage those who feel the interest and desire to do something creative but haven't yet found the confidence to do so.

As creative and expressive types, we can often live too long in 'our heads' and remain hidden 'in the shadows' without giving ourselves the opportunity to just try.
