Discovering And Developing Our Inner Identity - with Ali Gordon-Creed

In this week's very special episode, Kevin talks to Ali Gordon-Creed, a specialist in the power of positive thinking, and founder of Future Perfect. Ali joins the show to talk about the importance of finding and holding onto, your identity as a performer, and how we can make sure that we take care of not just our physical health, but also our mental fortitude. KEY TAKEAWAYS As performers, we have to find our true identity in order to make the most of ourselves. In the lockdown, some performers are in danger of losing the self they have fought to find. We are all born with a sense of self-identity. Performers have a smaller, separate self - one that wants to sing, dance or perform in some way. Initially though, this smaller self is section of the larger self. We must seek to feed our physical self in terms of health, and our mental self in terms of what inspires us. This can take many forms, from simple exercise, to mental nourishment. Performance is the art of creating truth in any given moment, and communicating it, with precision, to another person. The responsibility is incredible.
