How we met
Eric and I met during the AFCP (French Association of Professional Keynote Speakers). During the ELEVATE event which gathered several speakers on different topics, both of us had the opportunity to be among them : so I decided to offer him to participate in one of my Crazytivity podcast’s episodes. After this we became friends and Eric even invited me and my wife to his place at Nantes and made us discover this beautiful city !
I love that a podcast can bring 2 people closer and create friendships!
Today, Eric is a keynote speaker, has his own consulting agency and works with business schools in their sports specializations.
The Podcast Episode
When he gave me the pleasure to be part of my Crazytivity Podcast, he shared with me several connections that exist around creativity between the world of magic and the world of sports.
Creativity (whether it is in magic or sports) is driven by the same goal : make the impossible possible.
These two different fields require creativity for the same goals, whether it is to upgrade your skills, to be more effective, find solutions when facing obstacles or even bounce back from failure.
