I enjoyed this really insightful and impactful conversation with Ian Braid, founder of DOCIAsport.
We meandered through mental health, vulnerability, self-awareness and so much more with some of the key insights being:
- “Who’s looking after the people looking after the people?” – 03.35
- “A lesson I had to learn the hard way was that duty of care belongs to the individual first and foremost” - 05.50
- “I’m making it up as I go along. When I set up DOCIA Sport I was still poorly. If I had set it up when I was well, I would have had a 5-year plan, umpteen KPIs, I’d have blinkers on. Because I didn’t have the blinkers on, I have had opportunities and met different people that I otherwise would not have met” – 08.35
- “I am (now) more self-aware and therefore feel that I can make better intuitive decisions, if it feels right” – 15.25
- “When you talk about your vulnerability it gives people, at worst, permission to themselves to think more deeply about their own stuff and at best to engage in a conversation” – 21.55
- “Is it (role modelling vulnerability) courageous, is it brave I don’t know, but it feels intuitively right” 22.20
