What do we do about those damn tall poppies?

One doesn’t become one on purpose.

Growth spurts can happen to different poppies at different times.

We thrive under different conditions.

Sometimes, we get lucky.

Sometimes it’s our turn to shine. We get to be the tall one.

Other times we’re lucky enough to notice when things are going well for someone else. Imagine that - merely witnessing the magnificence of their unfolding glory with a shared sense of joy and wonder.

Imagine helping the tall poppies grow taller. Not in a sort of poppy prop kind of way, but instead, just letting the poppies grow up chaotically, each with their own perfect height.


I’m devoting 2023 to finding and registering the Remarkable Fools of the world. For Remarkable Fools, what was once an embarrassing or awkward, is now a thrilling leap to a life more fulfilling. How will we find the fools? A series of pop up live talk shows where the audience are also the guests. Highly interactive and playful, you’ll laugh till you cry or cry till you laugh.

The urge to control everything isn't felt by everyone.

I am thankful for that.
