Where To Next? By Dan Kieran

It feels important to flag the book that in many ways has guided my intellectual and spiritual curiosity that is pushing me forward in my project for Do Radio. The Master and His Emissary by Iain McGilchrist. In this week’s video update I give a background on this work and my understanding of it and how it is informing the way I see the world. Thanks for watching. Dan This is a public episode. If...

This weeks video update includes behind the scenes info on how my Do Radio project is going. I also re-discovered an interview I did with James Hollis whose book introduced me to the Carl Jung’s theory of the two adulthoods. I’ve also just announced a LinkedIn Live about the book on leadership I’m writing called Lead Like a River. In the session I’ll be explaining the importance of what I call you...

I’ve just read ‘Burnt Rain’ by Roc Sandford - an activist and thinker who is part of Extinction Rebellion and lives on his own island off Mull in Scotland.

Apologies for the lack up recent updates, but I mentioned a few weeks ago I was working on a new project about leadership. Well here it is. I’ve finally managed to extract and upload the LinkedIn Live I have been working on to Substack. The video actually starts 5 minutes in - cutting the first five minutes was beyond my skills - so please jump forward to then. The point of the talk was to share s...

On the way to school this morning I had the realisation that while I’m the lead character on my own life, I’m an important but secondary character in the lives of my children. I suddenly became conscious of how I will appear in their memories. It’s an interesting thing to consider in the real time of my life. More exploration in the video. Dan’s Substack is a reader-supported publication. To recei...
