Myriam from workshops.work interviewed me on her podcast in late 2019
Our interview comes in two parts: The first part introduces my major learnings from my life as a monk for facilitation and coaching. In the second part, we explore what presence and mindfulness can teach us to hold space for our workshop participants and to control our ego. During our conversation, we touch upon many other topics such as anger and jealousy, about play and about leadership.
Don’t miss the part when Ama tells the story why the monastery bought him a punch-bag and what that taught him about dealing with anger.
Part one: Learnings from the life of a monk
Part two: Presence, mindfulness and facilitation
