#030 - Dr Rita Shuford: Happiness, wellbeing and 40 years of sharing the principles

Get Clarity with Jamie Smart

In this episode, you’re going to hear a conversation I had on the subject of happiness and wellbeing with one of my dear friends and colleagues, Rita Shuford. And here’s how I met Rita... In 2011, I kicked off a one-year programme called '3 Principles University'. We had a wonderful group of students, and every month or so, we had a different principles teacher spend the weekend with us, sharing their understanding. My good friend and colleague, Sandy Krot was scheduled to do the November weekend (on Leadership), and when she arrived, she had a friend with her: Rita Shuford. Rita was the person who'd introduced Sandy to the principles, so I was super-curious to hear her story. I recorded an interview with her that weekend, and we've been friends ever since. Rita's one of the people who's mentored me over the years, and she's also mentored some of my students on Clarity programmes. Last week, I was recording a session with Rita for ClarityPro (on working with clients around happiness and wellbeing) and she agreed to record an interview for the podcast. Rita's been sharing the principles with clients for over 40 years, and she has a wealth of knowledge, experience and insight, so I'm really delighted to be able to share our conversation with you. By the way, if you want to get access to the members-only session I did with Rita on working with clients around happiness & wellbeing, you get access to that and all the other members-only content when you join the ClarityPro Membership programme.
