’Friendship is like an anchor, providing strength, stability and support during turbulant times’ a sailors safety with Suzy Chisholm

There is something soothing and special about being on or near the water. Whether it's seeing the vast horizon that opens up a whole world of endless possibilities, showing us there is always more to look forward to, or the gentle rocking of the waves against the shore line, resetting the sand to new, my travels have continued to open doors to the people who have build a life connected to the ocean and with them a new perspective I haven't always seen. 

In this episode I welcome to the podcast - Suzy Chisholm, the innovating co-founder of start up - Swiss Ocean Tech, Safe Anchoring for Sailor, Ship and Sea, and officially, a communications expert.

So as we dive into this conversation, she shares her unofficially role as 'building bridges between people and ideas', bringing people together who strive for that common ground. Her secret in almost all cases, can be found with the right approach and attention. 

So what does it take to create a unique connection between two unknowns. The power of direction. There are so many ocean references I can make about Suzy's philosphy, but I will let you hear then for yourself.   

Where we found common ground was at the heart of doing with intention because as she will explain, when everyone understands the mission at hand, they automatically pull in the same direction. There will be no shortage of struggles, hurdles or setbacks, so if we are all heading in the same direction, we are always able to stay on course.

One more thing, Spring is here, and these gorgeous days right now and the ones you could be spending on, in or around the water - come and see us at Bobbin Head Marina, our Waterside Bistro is the perfect place to be.
