Description

Kia Ora everyone, I’m Henare Hona O’Brien I have 2 children and a wife of nearly 17 years. My wife actually started to ask me to start this podcast up just to talk about topics that people may wanna talk about here. I’ve worked as a paper boy all the way through as a school teacher. I’ve been a basketball player and have done many cool things over my life. This podcast is for people to talk about any topic that involves growth. People out there wanna talk about any topics that come to mind. I have been in coaching and personal development for over 15 years now moving on from that. I just want to open up more conversation that make a difference.

Because the image wasn't the reality of my human being life. I needed to deal with being a father or need to learn how to be a father and a husband, a businessman, instead of pushing an image around being a better person where I was still dealing with learning how to be a better person myself.Listen to this episode and know what I am talking about.CONNECT WITH ME ON MY INSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/henarehobrien/I'm also on Facebook over at https://www.facebook.com/henarehonaOr you can check out my website: https://www.henareobrien.com/
We change the things we can and accept the things we can't. And that seems to me more of a holistic view than some of the rigid views that we're having now telling us we need to be better people. How do you be better? Because when I'm better, sometimes I feel worse.Listen to this episode and know what I am talking about.CONNECT WITH ME ON MY INSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/henarehobrien/I'm also on Facebook over at https://www.facebook.com/henarehonaOr you can check out my website: https://www.henareobrien.com/

I'm still learning that myself and my brain click into gear sometimes to defend myself against things that I may only have had a little part in or a big part in.But it always tells me that I shouldn't apologize for, it tells me that it wasn't my fault, it diverts to other people but I've had to tell it and train it.

Every time I've dropped something or let it go, there's sometimes been all sorts of emotions that go with it, maybe sadness, anger, frustration, but after that space opens up and for me then I try and fill it up with repetition again. When I keep that system of let things go, because that's the way of life is letting things go, we have to let ourselves go in the end as well. So I think the buddha had one of it is his precepts, nothing is permanent. Listen to this episode and know what I am talking about.CONNECT WITH ME ON MY INSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/henarehobrien/I'm also on Facebook over at https://www.facebook.com/henarehonaOr you can check out my website: https://www.henareobrien.com/
