Leaning Into Possibility with Eddie Ndopu: Lesson 52

Lessons Learned with Komal

Join Komal for a powerful conversation with Eddie Ndopu, an award-winning activist, humanitarian, public intellectual, and global advocate appointed by the Secretary-General of the United Nations for the Sustainable Development Goals. They discuss what it means to live a phenomenal life, to lean into possibility and potential, and to stand tall as we enter rooms and spaces that formerly excluded those of our identities.

Here are this episode’s time-codes:

[3:15] - Eddie shares his story, and why he believes he is the embodiment of possibility

[14:50] - Never Giving Up On Yourself

[26:41] - Eddie and I discuss what embodied resilience is, how Eddie is looking to this next decade of his life, and what is calling him forward in his activism, life, and work.

[30:26] - Finally, Eddie shares with us his dream of going to SPACE. Yup! You read that right! Eddie literally wants to go to space!

“Possibility isn’t something that we chase after. It is the force and the divinity that lives within us. We are possibility. We are the possible.” - Eddie Ndopu, Lessons Learned Podcast, Episode 52

Thank you so much for tuning in this week! I hope that Eddie’s powerful words inspired you to chase after possibility, and not settle for anything less than spectacular for yourself.

Until next time!
