  • Cam Kilgour – Daring to Dream BIG: First PRO Pacific Island Rugby Team
    What happens when we dare to dream? Sometimes our dreams come true but more often then not our dreams get crushed leaving waking from a nightmare and realising we are still awake! Pretty scary stuff - so why dream? Because that's our responsibility as Humans - to dream about what could be and fuse that together with what is.
    This podcast features my good mate Cam Kilgour who always dreams big and in doing so inspires others to do the same. This is the story about his journey so far, coming up the ranks of the Blues rugby management team to helping lead the Cook Island Rugby team on a historic journey to face Fiji on a one-off game to be part of the Rugby World Cup.
    As you will learn on Cam's journey, dreams never stop and if you can be brave enough to keep dreaming - they might just come true.
    Follow Cam on social media to stay up to date with the amazing story of the first professional Pacific Island Rugby team (www.kanaloahi.com) based in Hawaii: instagram.com/cam_kilgour

    WHY I PODCAST?

    Our ancestors explored the world by taking risks to travel the path less known. Why did they do this? Because that is what you do in life - explore - push boundaries - wonder what might be - what could be just around the corner.


    I’ve been thinking about my grandmother's story about leaving Rarotonga for the ‘idea’ of a better life in New Zealand and the dream of prosperity and abundance. They sacrificed much for this - it took my grandmother 10 years to get all her kids from the islands.


    Sometimes I sit and wonder why I think so deeply about life - why I am fascinated about understanding where the darkness within humanity comes from - how we can get to a place where the idea of not living is even a thing. Statistics tell us that it’s a thing.


    Why did my grandmother accept the risk to voyage into the unknown? Because that’s what you do - you take a leap and go after the impossible even in the face of the uncertainty. There is a lesson in this - If we are listening.


    We settle for less today. At what point is an iPhone considered ‘making it’? Why do we not strive for more - because we forgot - that we are voyagers - but the next generation - of mental voyagers. Our ancestors travelled the oceans in search of more and they found it and gave it to us. A gift of time, education, dreams and mental freedom.


    If we don’t use it - we will dry up on a mental island becoming stranded alone because we stopped exploring - pushing - thinking - wanting for more - mentally. My grandmother voyaged the seas so that I could voyage the mind crashing over the waves of ideas too big for me to process but nevertheless requiring me too to stand up in the face of the unknown.
