Heart of Dad Season 1 Episode 7 - Giles Croft

 In this episode I interview Giles Croft.

Giles is a psychology graduate and former NHS surgeon who spent more than a decade exploring a number of career paths, including healthcare information management, cycling journalism, public speaking and opening a high street shop with his wife.

His curiosity about the human condition led him to coaching and a deeper dive into how our psychology works from the inside-out.

He now works with clients to help them resolve stress related conditions, without recourse to medication.

His greatest teacher is his 5 year old daughter, Rhonwen.

In this episode we discuss:

How being in the work doldrums opened up his relationship with his daughterHow finding balance is no longer the issue, it's about presenceThe joy of going with the flow How losing and finding a ballet shoe provided an extraordinary turning point in his lifeHow dropping labels for experience, including bad moods, frees us up to be present and feel more aliveWhat to do when you lose the plotThe lightness of not taking difficult times so seriously Why making time for yourself is so important
