Episode 39: Curiosity, simplicity and a swan on a lilo.
The swan, the lift and the blue phone: finding calm, clarity and connection.
What if your greatest strength wasn’t doing more, but simply being there?
In this powerful and heartfelt episode, Nicki Hambleton talks with leadership and wellbeing coach and veteran Dave Hill, whose message is simple yet profound: helping people realise they are designed to thrive in any situation.
From his time in the military to his work supporting veterans and leaders, Dave shares deeply human stories about simplicity, curiosity, and connection. The episode explores what it means to stay calm amid chaos, how presence transforms the way we think and listen, and why sometimes the most powerful thing you can do is to stop.
Key themes:
• The superpower of being present
• Why simplicity survives complexity
• How curiosity and compassion create clarity
• The role of visual metaphors in understanding ourselves
🎧 The swan, the lift, and the blue phone reminds us that clarity is found in stillness, awareness and genuine human connection.
