3 Thought Leaders That I Am Honored To Call Friends: 15 Videos That Can Inspire You To Take Action
Work and play have always been the same thing to me.
As a creative artreprenur, my motto is “Do what you love and find a way to pay yourself.” I am always learning how to balance life and being inspired by the friends I enjoy spending time and having great conversations with.
The three friends I am going to introduce to you are three very important people you might want to check out, follow and even connect with. I teamed up with each of them to create a week-long series of video discussion via the Zoom app on topics that seem to touch on everyone’s life this year. The recording happened online while we were all in different countries/cities.
These videos were released on my YouTube channel New York Real TV. Each of them is about 15–30 mins long. Click on ones that seem interesting to you! I hope you enjoy our conversations and be inspired to start your own with people you know who inspire you on or off line.
Happy 2018! Here we go!
Guest #1. Becky Walsh
Bristol / London, England — beckywalsh.com
Intuitive life catalyst and coach for clients who feel stuck. Author, TV and radio presenter. Speaker and comedian.
I was introduced to Becky from Lilou Mace’s TV interview with her. I bought 7 copies of Becky’s book “You Do Know — Learning To Act On Intuition Instantly” for my closest friends. Naturally, we connected on Twitter!
My favorite memories with Becky include chilling in the green room of the London music venue The Garage where my band performed, interviewing Becky on New York Real and trying vegan pizza in the UK for the first time. I love her sense of humor! She really is a fairy godmother who sees so clearly through every life’s situation.

Guest #2. Dorie Clark

Dorie for president! You’d hear me or some of our mutual friends say that sometimes. Dorie is a magnet of interesting people and opportunities. She is the reason why I have a LinkedIn account and started writing. She is one of the most intelligent, confident, resourceful and discipline people I know.
Her dinner parties are full of surprises. I always ended up sitting next to people I had magical connections with. I don’t think they are just coincidences. I believe Dorie brings the best out of everyone she meets. People just want to up their game when they are around her, which is pretty awesome. If you are a cat lover, you gotta follow her on Instagram!
