Who Do You Love The Most? – Paul D. Lowe & Bob Conlin


Listen Later

On this episode guest host Bob Conlin interviews Paul about the World Game-Changers project and his deep sense of care and concern for all living things as well as his experience of relationships throughout his life, what he’s learned and what wisdom he would like to share.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

  • With hindsight and learning, the most challenging relationship I ever had was with myself. From an early age I was led to believe I was useless, pathetic, no one would ever love me, I was a waste of space, better off dead. This came from my step father over 6 torturous years. I developed self-hatred in my formative years and spend most of my life fighting against myself.
  • The love of womankind has been so powerful in my life, initially in the form of two matriarchs – my mother and my grandmother, and then later in what the outside world would term ‘romantic relationships’. I still had deep, deep deserved issues and I battled alcohol addiction for many many years, but one of the things that kept my head above water was knowing that I was so special in these beautiful, divine feminine worlds. That for me is just mind-blowing.
  • My mother gave what she didn’t have and I learned that model and used it in later life, even if I was a mess, if anyone needed help it was like a sobering effect and I’d sort it for them. I had to unlearn that when I became a coach. It's not our role to fix, guide and support by all means, it’s not my job to fix.
  • When I was younger, the love in my heart only extended to women, kids and animals. Men were like a magnet to me and I just wanted to fight them. My understanding was that all men were drunk wife-beaters because I saw that directly in my own world, but it was rife in the community around me, being in a rough, inner-city area of Nottingham. It was somehow normal, but I sort of knew it wasn’t.

BEST MOMENTS

‘In darkness the real focus of light shines brightest in the darkest.’

‘The best relationship is where I am now, and I say this in the humblest of ways, but I’m in love with myself. For the first time in my life I can truly say I don’t need a romantic relationship.’

‘You follow your heart. For the longest time I followed my head, but that was based on fear and survival.’
