The Wide Awake Show

005 F*ck Perfection, It's Adventure Time!

When I met Elenna in Summer 2016 at Camp Good Life Project in New York, I instantly knew that this woman was out of the ordinary. I can't fully explain it. My eyes fill with tears (the good kind) when I think about this woman.

We only spent a matter of minutes in each other's company, but I had to know more about her… so I got her on the Wide Awake Show!

Elenna is the Camp Counsellor for the Universe. She is a certified co-active coach, a professional theatre maker and a serial entrepreneur with a massive heart… and this is one of my favourite interviews ever.

In this delicious conversation Elenna shares:

  • What it means to be Camp Counsellor to the universe (hint: joy, connection into a group of people and also yourself, rituals, singing and the spirit of joy).
  • Why everybody should have a little piece of summer camp in their everyday.
  • All about Adventure Coaching (I reckon this will go global) and The Hysteria Society — a group for women who want to go on adventures, skill build and earn badges (imagine Girl Guides but for grown ups. Sign me up!)
  • How we have been beaten into a full apology and what the remedy is.
  • The difference between accountability and responsibility.
  • How to recognise if the inner child within you is running the show — and why that might not be such a good thing!
  • Existential dilemmas and the messy, imperfect journey of coming
  • Recognising when we are 'at choice' (one of Elenna's phrases which I love)
  • PLUS Elenna's stories, which move me to tears and make me believe that magic is real.

Her recommended book: Soulpancake by Rainn Wilson

We'd love a review on iTunes. It really does help more people find out about the show.

Love!
