In this episode of the podcast, you\\u2019re going to be hearing a conversation I had with a good friend and colleague, Nick Bottini. Over the past couple of years he\\u2019s gone from being the music teacher in a school to being a bestselling author, speaker and coach who\\u2019s passionate about sharing the inside-out understanding with musicians.

And while hundreds of thousands of people are now exploring and having insights into this understanding, there are relatively few people who are managing to share this understanding effectively.

Nick\\u2019s an example of someone who\\u2019s been proactive in navigating that journey from having his OWN insights into the inside-out nature of life, to helping other people to have THEIR own realisations, but that\\u2019s not where he started. In the beginning, Nick experienced what people often call \\u2018impostor syndrome\\u2019 when it came to sharing the principles with musicians. He said,

\\u201cI did hold off sharing with musicians because I felt like \\u2018Who am I to share it at all\\u2019 and sharing it on my home territory is the scariest thing to do because it's like I've got real credibility to lose. I could be \\u2018that guy that's always talking about that thing\\u2019 you know, and and how will people react to that?\\u201d

And here\\u2019s one of the reasons I\\u2019m really excited to be sharing this conversation with you. As you may already know, at our company, we believe the most valuable things you can discover are how experience is created and who you really are. Our mission is to inspire and educate a generation to experience lives of clarity, resilience and wellbeing.

And one of the things we\\u2019ve realised is that the world needs more people who can share the inside-out understanding with others. While Nick\\u2019s story is going to be an inspiration for people who want to \\u2018get this understanding out there\\u2019, there\\u2019s an important message for all of us in it:

That the most important place to share what you\\u2019ve seen is on your \\u2018home turf\\u2019; in the way you\\u2019re living your life, and connecting with the people around you.

By the way - whether you have an audience you\\u2019d like to reach, like Nick, or you just want to share what you\\u2019ve realised with the people already in your world, we\\u2019ve just launched a new membership site called Clarity Pro. It\\u2019s designed for you to have everything you need to share the principles like a pro, with anybody, on any topic and in any situation. To find out more, go to www.JamieSmart.com/claritypro
