When was the last time you let curiosity drive your choices — and noticed it fundamentally change your perspective or path?

In this episode of Simple Reflections, I’m joined by Chad Littlefield, co-founder of We and Me, and co-author of Ask Powerful Questions. Chad is renowned for “hijacking” TEDx events, transforming passive audiences into active participants by inviting contribution and connection from the whole room.

We dive into how curiosity, not certainty, is the key that unlocks possibility — and how letting go of being absolutely sure can open up new avenues for learning, growth, and connection.

We discuss the subtle — but game-changing — difference between doing connection and being connection, and how a shift in intent can transform the most basic human interactions.

Chad also reflects on the impact of great questions, sharing stories of how a single question can “edit the future,” sparking real-world action. Looking ahead, he previews a new project: a deck of 60 questions designed to act as “edit buttons” for what comes next in life, helping people talk their way into tomorrow.

How has deliberate curiosity — asking genuine, open questions — changed something in your life or work? What happened when you gave yourself permission to be less certain, and more open?
Share your story — I’d love to hear what you discovered.

Do you ever wonder why you do what you do and how best to be of service to others?

In the latest episode of the Simple Reflections Podcast with my guest, Oli Mansfield, we explored the notion that of the clients we work with, we are our top client.

What does that even mean Dave? Great question… for me, it’s the idea that I, like everyone else is not a completely finished product: I am a perpetual work in progress.

As an idea it keeps me grounded and reminds me to stay open to seeing and experiencing new things, to learn, to be open to growth.

Oli is a Transformation and Performance Coach from Marlow in Buchinghamshire. He has a broad variety of clients that he serves with a passion for exploring the interplay between psychology and physiology; two subjects he has a deep expertise in, coupled with the humility to lead with his “inner dumbass” – or looking to understand the person he is with rather than shoehorn them into a preconceived box.

I’d love to know when you’ve given yourself permission to lead with open curiosity in to unknown territory, and what did you learn?

You know the old saying... "necessity is the mother of all invention!"... well I've been inventing!

This episode of the Simple Reflections Podcast will fit the rhythm:

· Regular as clock work every 2 weeks

· 2+ years

· 62 episodes

· Always with a guest...

...until NOW!

This episode will be just me, in a slightly different format, one that I've been meaning to experiment with as a supplementary bonus to the 2 weekly episodes with guests.

However, due to guest availability and holiday plans with my girls, the experiment is getting the prime slot... what could possibly go wrong!!!

❓ I'd love to hear your thoughts on the idea and on potential future topics for me to dive into?

Take care and I hope you enjoy the new format...
