Welcome to episode 6 of the Mindful & Driven podcast! It's all about how to not lose sight of what really matters whilst chasing your dreams.Episode 6’s guest is Andrew Gold. He’s presented and produced documentaries for both the BBC and HBO. The most famous is about an exorcist in Argentina. He now has a podcast called On the Edge which is listened to by tens of thousands of people each week. He interviews these outrageous people all over the world with stories that you just wouldn’t believe. Andrew himself has lived in Argentina, Brazil, Columbia, Germany and is now back home in the UK. He speaks 5 languages fluently which helps him to really understand his guests and get to a point of understanding where most people can't access.Andrew champions the idea of being understanding instead of being kind. For him,  the idea of being kind is frustrating because it doesn't take into account the nuances of life. It's much more interesting to be understanding of people's different points of view.Topics discussed in this episode:Why being kind is overrated. Kindness isn't the solution to the problems humans have. We need to be more understanding of each other. Why it's important to understand others. Why listening to others is important. How to be more understanding. How to understand people better. Understand others if you want to bring positive change.I hope you enjoy listening to our conversation!
