- Lessons from captaining a boat in the Cape2Rio Yacht Race
- Importance of intuition and team selection for projects
- Encouraging fearlessness and authenticity in pursuing life aspirations
Whatever you guys are thinking, don't hold out on things that you've been wanting to do. A bucket list, I think, should be - I don't even like the term bucket list. Obviously, within reason, you know, plan it a bit, but I would just encourage people to be fearless because if this bluff oak this bluff muso could take a boat to the Caribbean from Cape Town then anyone could do just about anything I can tell you that much.
Picture yourself navigating the high seas, not just in a literal sense but also through the turbulent waters of life. That's exactly what Ard Matthews, lead singer of the South African rock band Just Jinjer, dives into in this episode of the Call to Courage podcast. Ard’s life is a whirlwind of music, adventure, and profound lessons, and he’s here to share it all.
With 27 years of musical success under his belt, Ard takes us on a journey from the stage to the helm of his 66-foot boat in the Cape2Rio Yacht Race. He opens up about why he believes his best years are still ahead and how choosing the right team can make or break any venture. Ever wondered how intuition can steer you toward a purposeful life? Ard swears by it.
He also delves into the power of self-love as the bedrock for solid relationships and reveals why he thinks men expressing love openly can heal the world. His tales aren't just about triumphs; they’re about crossroads and the plant medicine journey that helped him navigate them. And if you think leadership is only for those with role models, Ard’s got news for you: anyone can become a better leader.
Authentic communication and being real are key, especially for men battling depression. And just when you think the episode can't get any better, Ard treats listeners to a live impromptu performance of his track 'Wait wait, how long'—a moment that captures his raw talent and spirit. This episode is a treasure trove of wisdom, adventure, and heartfelt moments that will leave you inspired to chart your own course through life.
