The Power of
Reflections...
Thinking Ahead shares with you the power of reflection and how shared conversations can profoundly impact and transform ourselves and others.
In developing the Podcast, Paul was finally able to accept he had suffered a severe brain injury following a serious car accident in 2018.
By empathising with fellow brain injury survivors, learning from expert healthcare professionals, and self-reflecting on the key aspects of his recovery process in action, he instinctively yet unexpectedly began to re-construct his self-identity.
When his own unique stories were explored in collaboration with others, an astonishing space was unlocked that allowed new insights and alternative stories to unfold.
His journey made him realise that we all have the power to overcome challenges in the face of adversity, but our curiosity and reflective sense of self must be at the forefront.
Through Thinking Ahead, Paul reveals how.
