Listen "Choosing to learn with Eirik Olsen"
Episode Synopsis
I'd love your feedback, send me a messageWhen was the last time you caught yourself sitting in the unknown, letting curiosity – not certainty – guide a conversation?In this episode of the Simple Reflections Podcast, I’m joined by Eirik Olsen, The Co-founder and Executive Director of One Solution. I love Eirik’s approach to growth, it feels refreshingly real. Our conversation drifts into what it actually means to show up for others, to be of service while staying true to our own evolution. There’s no “final version” of any of us here; we’re each a work in progress, and Eirik has a gentle way of making it feel like that’s not just okay, but a gift.We peel back the layers on authenticity – not just as a concept, but as a practice you return to, especially when the path gets foggy. Eirik shares stories from his own journey, moments when humility and openness made all the difference, and how questioning our assumptions (even the ones we didn’t know we had) keeps life interesting. Our conversation reminded me how staying grounded and willing to learn is where real service – and real connection – begin.So, when have you put aside what you thought you knew and let curiosity carry you forward? What did you see, or learn, that surprised you along the way?Website: https://onesolutionglobal.org/Rebels for Peace: https://www.rebelsforpeace.org/This Episode on YouTube: https://youtu.be/f-GFaQEeefc Follow the Simple Reflections Podcast on your favourite platform: https://www.buzzsprout.com/2132149/follow Subscribe to the Simple Reflections YouTube Channel: http://www.youtube.com/@SimplicityinMindSupport the showThe Simple Reflections Podcast is a collection of gentle conversations with people from all walks of life, looking at small, seemingly insignificant ideas that have gone on to have profound impacts on the lives of the guests.
