On this week's episode of the podcast, Matty has a conversation with coach and filmmaker David Taylor. David spent 10 years on Tony Robbins' team, before discovering a completely different model of coaching - using the simplicity of listening, and capturing people's responses on film, which David found was truly transformative.  We explore David's own astonishing story, the value of empathy that can only truly be shared by listening, and the power of listening as the world addresses racism and prejudice.

EPISODE 2 | With Dr Dave Carbonell In this episode, Matty gets honest about some of his fears and anxieties, whilst chatting to a leading expert in the field of anxiety. During the Coronavirus crisis, one thing that most of us have felt is a feeling of worry or anxiety; whether you've felt concerned about the macro issues resulting from the global pandemic - the tragic death rate, the impact on the economy or the pressure on the heath system - or issues closer to home, of loved ones becoming unwell, personal or business finances being impacted, or the pressures of having the family locked down at home for weeks on end. Back in October 2018, I got to interview a leading thinker, author and practitioner in the field of anxiety - Dr Dave Carbonell, also known as the Anxiety Coach. In this episode Dave tackles the core of anxiety, and how to handle the feelings that each of us feel, particularly at such uncertain and turbulent times as these.   You can find Dave at https://twitter.com/drdavecarbonell Dave's website is www.anxietycoach.com Find out more about The Entrecouragement Podcast at www.entrecouragement.com Join the Facebook community at www.facebook.com/entrecouragement  Find Matty Hawthorne on social media platforms @mattyhawthorne
